Scope of the processing of personal data
As a matter of principle, we process personal data of our users only insofar as this is necessary for the provision of a functional website as well as our contents and services. The processing of personal data of our users is regularly only carried out with the consent of the user. An exception applies in those cases in which obtaining prior consent is not possible for actual reasons and the processing of the data is required by legal regulations.
Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations involving personal data, Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. a DSGVO serves as the legal basis.
When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. b DSGVO serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures.
Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. c DSGVO serves as the legal basis.
If vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make processing of personal data necessary, Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. d DSGVO serves as the legal basis.
If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f DSGVO serves as the legal basis for the processing.
Data deletion and storage period
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage no longer applies. Storage may also take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the standards expires unless there is a need to continue storing the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.
If your personal data is processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the DSGVO and you have the following rights vis-à-vis the controller:
The right to information (Art. 15 DSGVO)
You have the right to request confirmation from us as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed.
If this is the case, you have the right to information about this data and to the following information:
Right to rectification (Art. 16 DSGVO)
If your personal data is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that the personal data be corrected or completed without delay.
Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 DSGVO)
If one of the following conditions is met, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data:
Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") (Art. 17 DSGVO)
If one of the following reasons applies, you have the right to demand the immediate deletion of your personal data:
Please note that the above reasons do not apply insofar as the processing is necessary:
Right to data portability (Art. 20 DSGVO)
You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, common, and machine-readable format or to request that it be transferred to another controller.
Right to object to certain data processing (Art. 21 DSGVO)
You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your situation, to the processing of personal data relating to you which is carried out based on Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. e or f DSGVO. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
If the personal data concerning you is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing.
Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the DSGVO. The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Article 78 DSGVO. A list of the locally competent supervisory authorities in Germany can be found on the website of the Federal Commissioner for Data Protection under the following link: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Service/Anschriften/Laender/Laender-node.html
Description and scope of data processing
Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer.
The following data is collected:
This data is stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.
Purpose of the data processing
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.
The storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.
These purposes are also our legitimate interest in data processing according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data and the log files is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
Duration of storage
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.
In the case of storage of data in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or alienated, so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.
Possibilities of objection
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of the data in log files is necessary for the operation of the website. The user can object to this. Whether the objection is successful is to be determined within the framework of a balancing of interests.
Description and scope of data processing
When you visit our website, we use technical tools for various functions, in particular cookies, which can be stored on your terminal device.
We only use technically necessary cookies that are required for the technical structure of the website. Without these cookies, our website cannot be displayed (completely correctly) or the support functions are not possible.
We use the "Borlabs Cookie" opt-in tool for this purpose.
The following data is stored and transmitted by the technically necessary cookies:
We do not use cookies on our website that are not technically necessary. Text files that do not solely serve the functionality of the website but also collect other data are considered technically unnecessary cookies.
Purpose of data processing

We require the technically necessary cookies for the following applications:
The use of technically unnecessary cookies is for the purpose of improving the quality of our website through improved user experience and thus our reach and profitability. By setting these cookies, we unlock content from other platforms.
Legal basis for data processing
The provisions of the Telecommunications Telemedia Data Protection Act (TDDG) are relevant for the storage of information in the end user's terminal equipment and/or access to information already stored in the end user's terminal equipment. If the setting and reading of cookies is technically necessary, this is done to ensure the functionality of our website. In this case, the storage of and access to cookies on your terminal equipment is carried out based on Section 25 (2) No. 2 TDDG. This storage and access to the information in your terminal equipment serves to facilitate your use of our website and to be able to offer you our services as you have requested. Some functions of our website also do not work without the use of these cookies and could therefore not be offered. The cookies are generally deleted after the session ends (e.g., logging out or closing the browser) or after the expiry of a specified duration. Information about different storage periods for cookies can be found in the following sections of this privacy policy.
Insofar as cookies are used that are not technically necessary, this is done based on your consent, which you can give via the cookie banner. The basis for the storage and access to information in this case is § 25 para. 1 TDDG in conjunction with. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a), Art. 7 DSGVO. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future or subsequently grant it again by configuring your settings for cookies accordingly. Alternatively, you can prevent the storage of cookies by making appropriate settings in your browser software. Please note that the browser settings you make only affect the browser you are using.

Information on this can be found in the following sections of this privacy policy.
Description and scope of data processing
A contact form is available on our website, which can be used for electronic contact. If a user takes advantage of this option, the data entered in the input mask is transmitted to us and stored.
We use the tool "WPForms" of WPForms LLC, 2701 Okeechobee Blvd Stee 400, West Palm Beach, Florida 33409, United States of America.
At the time of sending the message, the following data is stored:
Purpose of data processing
The processing of personal data from the input mask of the contact form or via the provided e-mail address serves us solely to process the contact.
The other personal data processed during the submission process are used to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.
Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted while sending an e-mail is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO. Our legitimate interest is to optimally answer your inquiry that you send to us via contact form. If the e-mail contact aims at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO.
Duration of storage
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. For the personal data from the input mask of the contact form and those sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is ended when it is clear from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.
The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of seven days at the latest.
Possibility of objection
If the user contacts us via the input mask in the contact form, he can object to the storage of his personal data at any time.
The objection is possible by e-mail to kontakt@4aces.de or kontakt@4aces-tech.de.
All personal data stored while contacting us will be deleted in this case.
Risk phrase
Your personal data may also be transferred to the USA. There is no adequacy decision for the USA according to Art. 45 (3) DSGVO. We would like to point out that data transfer without an adequacy decision entails certain risks, which we would like to inform you about below:
Intelligence services in the USA take certain online identifiers (such as the IP address or unique identification numbers) as a starting point for monitoring individuals. It cannot be ruled out that these intelligence services have already collected information about you, with the help of which the data transmitted here can be traced back to you.
Electronic communications service providers headquartered in the United States are subject to surveillance by U.S. intelligence agencies pursuant to 50 U.S. Code § 1881a ("FISA 702"). Accordingly, providers of electronic communications services headquartered in the U.S. have an obligation to provide personal information to U.S. authorities pursuant to 50 U.S. Code § 1881a, without any possible recourse available to you. Even encryption of data at the electronic communications service provider's data centers may not provide adequate protection because, with respect to imported data in its possession or custody or under its control, an electronic communications service provider has a direct obligation to provide access to or surrender such data. This obligation may expressly extend to the cryptographic keys without which the data cannot be read.
The fact that this is not merely a "theoretical risk" is demonstrated by the ECJ's judgment of July 16, 2020 (Case C 311/18,,, Schrems-II").
Scope of processing personal data
Our website contains an application form that can be used for electronic applications. If an applicant takes advantage of this option, the data entered in the input mask will be transmitted to us and stored. These data are:
Alternatively, you can also send us your application by e-mail. In this case, we will record your e-mail address and the data you provide in the e-mail.
After sending your application, you will receive confirmation of receipt of your application documents by e-mail from us.
Your data will not be passed on to third parties. The data will be used exclusively for processing your application.
Purpose of data processing
The processing of personal data from the application form serves us solely to process your application. In the case of contact by e-mail, this also constitutes the necessary legitimate interest in processing the data.
The other personal data processed during the submission process serve to prevent misuse of the application form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.
Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of your data is the initiation of a contract at the request of the data subject, Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b Alt. 1 DSGVO and § 26 para. 1 p. 1 BDSG.
The legal basis for the processing of data in the context of the applicant pool is the explicit declaration of consent by the applicant, Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a, Art. 7 DSGVO. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future.
Duration of storage
After completion of the application process, the data will be stored for up to three months. At the latest after the expiration of the three months, your data will be deleted. In the event of a legal obligation, the data will be stored within the scope of the applicable provisions.
Any additional personal data collected during the submission process will be deleted after a period of seven days at the latest.
