When processing personal data, we take particular account of the following legislation:

As the data controller operates in Austria, the processing of personal data on this website is primarily governed by the general data protection rules of the European Union and the applicable Austrian data protection provisions.

7. Contacting Us

If you contact us by telephone, email or through the contact form on our website, we process the personal data you provide in order to handle and respond to your enquiry, arrange a consultation or appointment, and, where applicable, prepare for a subsequent contractual relationship.

In particular, we may process the following personal data in connection with an enquiry:

  • name;
  • email address;
  • telephone number;
  • content of the enquiry or message;
  • other data voluntarily provided by the data subject: [TO BE COMPLETED OR REMOVED].

For other general enquiries, the legal basis is our legitimate interest in handling and responding to enquiries under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

8. WordPress and Gravity Forms

Our website operates using the WordPress content management system. We use the Gravity Forms plugin to provide the contact form.

Personal data submitted through the form may be stored in the website’s WordPress database on the hosting provider’s server. An email notification containing data submitted through the form may also be generated for the controller.

The purpose of using Gravity Forms is to receive and process enquiries from prospective customers.

10. Retention Period for Personal Data

We process personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the relevant processing purpose or for as long as retention is required by law.

As a general rule, we delete data relating to enquiries once the enquiry has been closed. However, we may retain such data for up to three years from the date of contact where this is necessary to substantiate possible later claims, agreements or disputes.

If the enquiry results in a contractual or business relationship, the retention period may also be affected by statutory record-keeping obligations applicable to that relationship.

11. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies and technologies similar to cookies.

Cookies are small data files that may be placed on a visitor’s device. They can enable the proper functioning of the website, remember certain settings and, where appropriate consent has been given, facilitate statistical analysis and marketing measurement.

Technologies that are strictly necessary to provide the requested service may be used without consent. Non-essential statistical or marketing technologies are used only with the data subject’s prior consent.

The legal basis for processing requiring consent is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, taking account of the relevant provisions of Section 165 of the Austrian Telecommunications Act 2021 (TKG 2021).

12. Complianz Consent Management System

We use the Complianz consent management system on our website to manage consent relating to cookies and external services.

Through the consent interface, visitors can choose which non-essential services they agree to use.

Visitors may change or withdraw previously given consent at any time for the future through the cookie settings available on the website.

13. Google Tag Manager

We use Google Tag Manager on our website for the technical management of various analytics and marketing tags.

This service allows us to manage, among other things, measurement tags for Google Analytics and Google Ads.

We configure services deployed through Google Tag Manager that require consent to operate according to the visitor’s consent preferences.

14. Google Analytics 4

We use Google Analytics 4 to analyse website traffic and usage.

This service may provide statistical information about the pages visitors view, the devices they use to access the website, how they interact with its content and the sources from which they arrive at the website.

The categories of data processed may include:

  • technical information associated with an IP address;
  • device and browser data;
  • page views;
  • interactions on the website;
  • time of the visit;
  • information about the source of the visit.

The purpose of using Google Analytics is to analyse website usage statistically and to improve the website’s operation and content.

The legal basis for Google Analytics processing that requires consent is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

Consent may be withdrawn at any time through the website’s cookie settings.

15. Google Ads and Conversion Tracking

We use the Google Ads advertising system to promote our services.

Google Ads conversion tracking allows us to measure whether a visitor performs an action that is important to us on the website after clicking on a Google advertisement.

Measurable actions may include, for example:

  • submitting a contact form;
  • initiating a telephone enquiry;
  • completing a specified contact or quotation-request action.

The purpose of conversion tracking is to evaluate and optimise the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.

The legal basis for Google Ads processing that requires consent is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

16. Google Consent Mode

Our website may use Google Consent Mode to adapt the operation of Google’s measurement services to visitors’ consent preferences.

The consent management system used on the website communicates the consent status to the relevant Google services, which may adjust the operation of their tags and measurement features accordingly.

17. Google Fonts

Our website may use Google Fonts typefaces loaded from external Google servers.

When external fonts are loaded, the visitor’s browser may establish a connection to Google’s servers. In this process, the visitor’s IP address and technical information about the browser and device used may be transmitted.

If Google Fonts are not served exclusively from our website’s own server, we adjust the establishment of external connections according to the visitor’s consent preferences.

The legal basis for processing that requires consent is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

18. Google Maps

Our website may use Google Maps to show the location of the Vision of You Tattoo studio and how to reach it.

When an embedded Google Maps map loads, a connection to Google’s servers may be established. This may involve the transmission of the visitor’s IP address, device and browser data and technical information relating to the use of the map.

An embedded Google Maps map is loaded on the basis of the visitor’s appropriate consent. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

If the website contains only an external link to a Google Maps page, data are transmitted to Google only after the link is opened.

19. Google Services and Transfers of Data to Third Countries

The European provider of the Google services used on our website is generally Google Ireland Limited.

When Google services are used, certain data may also be processed outside the European Economic Area.

Where personal data are transferred to a third country, the transfer must be based on an appropriate legal basis and safeguards as set out in Chapter V of the GDPR. Such safeguards may include an adequacy decision by the European Commission or the use of standard contractual clauses adopted by the European Commission.

20. Data Processors and Recipients

In connection with operating the website and providing our services, access to personal data is granted, in addition to the controller, only to service providers whose involvement is necessary to provide the relevant service.

These providers include, in particular:

  • Cweb.hu Informatikai Kft – web hosting and technical operation;
  • Google – email services, analytics, advertising, measurement, mapping and other Google services actually used on the website.

Personal data are transferred to other recipients only where there is an appropriate legal basis, the transfer is required to comply with a legal obligation, or the data subject has given appropriate consent.

21. Data Security

The controller implements technical and organisational measures to protect personal data that are appropriate to the nature, circumstances and risks of the processing.

The purpose of these measures is, in particular, to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, transmission, deletion, destruction, damage or loss.

Access to personal data is restricted to persons and service providers who require it to fulfil the relevant processing purpose.

22. Rights of Data Subjects

Under the GDPR, data subjects have, in particular, the following rights in connection with the processing of their personal data:
