What data we process and why

If you contact us

When you email us, call us, or fill out a form, we process your name, email address, phone number, company name, and the information you provide.

We use this information to answer your question and, if you’d like, to provide a proposal. Legal basis: taking steps to enter into a contract, or our legitimate interest in answering your question.

If you use the free website scan

To run the scan, enter your website address. If you’d like the full report, we’ll ask for your email address and, if necessary, a few questions about your business.

We’ll store the scan results along with your information so we can discuss the report with you and follow up.

To prevent abuse, we track the number of scans per IP address; we store that IP address only in encrypted form and temporarily.

Legal basis: consent (if you enter your email address) and our legitimate interest (preventing abuse).

When you schedule an appointment

If you book a call through our calendar, we’ll process your name, email address, the time, your preference for Google Meet or a phone call, your phone number if you choose a phone call, and any information you share with us in advance.

The appointment will be added to our Google Calendar, and you’ll receive an invitation. We’ll send you a reminder in advance. Legal basis: taking steps toward entering into a contract.

When you apply for a job

If you apply for a job, we will process your name, phone number, email address, resume, cover letter, and any other information you send us. We use this information solely to evaluate your application. Legal basis: taking steps toward an employment contract.

If you're a customer

To carry out our assignment, we process the data of contact persons and, where necessary, access advertising, analytics, and website accounts.

If we process personal data belonging to your customers in the course of this, we do so as a data processor; for this purpose, we enter into a data processing agreement.

Legal basis: the performance of the agreement and our statutory (tax) retention obligation.

When you visit our website

We track how the website is used so we can improve it, and we measure the effectiveness of our own ads. To do this, we use cookies and similar technologies.

We only set cookies that are not strictly necessary if you give your consent. Read more in our cookie policy.

Legal basis: consent, and our legitimate interest for cookies that are necessary for the website to function.

Who we share data with

We never sell your data. We only share it with third parties who help us provide our service, and only to the extent necessary. We have agreements in place with these third parties regarding the security and confidentiality of your data.

• Hostinger: Website and Form Hosting
• Google: Google Workspace (email and calendar), Google Meet, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and Google Ads
• SwipeOne: our customer management system for follow-ups and emails
• Segment, PostHog, Putler, and Matomo: Analysis of Website Usage
• Advertising platforms (Meta, i.e., Facebook and Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, Pinterest, X, Reddit, and Quora): measuring the performance of our own ads and showing ads again to previous visitors (remarketing). This is done only with your consent
• DataForSEO and AI providers (such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Perplexity): during the website scan. Only your website address and search terms are sent here, no personal data
• Trustindex: Displaying Our Google Reviews on the Website

Some of these parties are located outside the European Economic Area, primarily in the United States. Data is only transferred there if appropriate safeguards are in place, such as the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework or the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.

In addition, we may disclose information if required to do so by law.

How we protect your data

Your Rights

You can object to the use of your data or request that its use be restricted, and you can request your data in a commonly used format.
