Collection of Personal Data When Visiting Our Website
When you use the website solely for informational purposes—that is, if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information—we collect only the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. This data is technically necessary to display our website correctly, to ensure its stability and security, and to detect cases of misuse or malfunctions. In particular, the following data is processed and stored in so-called server log files: IP address, device/browser data, usage behavior, cookies.
The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the proper display of the website, the maintenance of stability and security, and the technical administration of our systems. Log data is generally stored only for as long as necessary for the aforementioned purposes and is subsequently automatically deleted, unless further retention is required for evidentiary purposes (e.g., in the context of investigating security incidents)
Contacting Us via Email
When you contact us via email, we will store the information you provide (your email address, and, if applicable, your name and phone number) in order to answer your questions. Any additional information you provide is used to clarify your inquiry and to better address your request. The provision of this information is expressly voluntary and subject to your consent, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
Insofar as this involves information regarding communication channels (e.g., email address, phone number), you also consent to us contacting you via this communication channel, if necessary, to address your inquiry. You may, of course, revoke this consent at any time with future effect.
We will delete the data collected in this context once storage is no longer necessary, or restrict processing if statutory retention obligations apply.
Applications
You can apply to our company electronically, specifically via email. We will, of course, use your information exclusively to process your application and will not share it with third parties. Please note that emails sent without encryption are not transmitted in a secure manner.
If you have applied for a specific position that has already been filled, or if we consider you equally or even more suitable for another position, we would like to forward your application within the company. Please let us know if you do not consent to such forwarding.
Your personal data will be deleted immediately upon completion of the application process, or after a maximum of 6 months, unless you have expressly given us your consent for longer storage of your data or a contract has been concluded. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(a), (b), and (f) of the GDPR as well as § 26 of the BDSG.

Hosting
The provider hosting our website content is Wix.com Ltd., 40 Namal Tel Aviv Street, Tel Aviv, 6350671 Israel. Wix provides us with the technical infrastructure necessary for the
operation of our website (servers, storage space, security services, maintenance). In doing so, Wix processes the following data on our behalf:
· IP address of the requesting device
· Date and time of access
· Pages/files accessed and amount of data transferred
· Notification of successful retrieval (HTTP status code)
· Referrer URL (previously visited page)
· Browser type and browser version
· Operating system used
· Other technical usage data, if applicable (e.g., device information, language settings)
· The processing of this data is technically necessary to ensure the website is provided in a stable, secure, and efficient manner and to detect or prevent attacks or misuse.
The use of Wix.com is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in ensuring the most reliable presentation of our website possible. Wix processes the personal data of our website visitors on our behalf in accordance with Article 28 of the GDPR. This is based on a data processing agreement. The data processing agreement is part of the Wix Terms of Service and stipulates, among other things, that Wix processes personal data exclusively in accordance with our instructions and complies with the requirements of the GDPR.
According to its own statements, Wix hosts data on servers in the European Union, in Israel, and, where applicable, in other countries. Israel has an adequacy decision from the European Commission pursuant to Article 45 of the GDPR, which confirms an adequate level of data protection. To the extent that data is transferred to countries without an adequacy decision (in particular to the U.S.), this is done on the basis of appropriate safeguards within the meaning of Articles 46 et seq. of the GDPR (e.g., EU Standard Contractual Clauses) and supplementary protective measures, where necessary.
Server log data is generally stored by Wix for a limited period of time and then automatically deleted, unless longer retention is necessary for evidentiary purposes (e.g., in the context of investigating security incidents or cases of misuse).

Sentry
Wix.com Ltd. uses the “Sentry” service provided by Functional Software, Inc. (USA) for technical monitoring and error analysis of our website. Sentry is a specialized monitoring and error-tracking tool that automatically collects technical information when errors occur in the web application (e.g., time of the error, URL accessed, type and scope of the error message, pseudonymized/IP address in abbreviated form if applicable, browser and device information, operating system, referrer, and interactions immediately preceding the error). The use of Sentry serves to ensure the stability, performance, and security
of our online offering by enabling the early detection of outages, malfunctions, and security-related anomalies, and the rapid resolution of their causes.
Wix.com provides Sentry as an integrated component of its hosting infrastructure; logging and analysis therefore take place primarily at the system level at Wix or Sentry. In connection with the use of Sentry, the transfer of usage and error data to Sentry’s servers in third countries (in particular the United States) cannot be ruled out; According to their own statements, Wix and Sentry employ appropriate safeguards (e.g., EU Standard Contractual Clauses) to ensure an adequate level of data protection. The legal basis for the processing is our legitimate interest in providing a secure, functional, and user-friendly website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Overall, the integration of Sentry by Wix.com helps to increase the reliability, stability, and security of the websites we host via Wix by enabling technical malfunctions to be detected, analyzed, and resolved more quickly.

Data Transfer
We do not generally transfer your data to third parties, unless we are legally required to do so, the transfer is necessary to fulfill the contractual relationship, or you have expressly consented to the transfer of your data in advance.
We do not generally share your data with third parties, unless we are legally required to do so, the sharing of data is necessary to fulfill the contractual relationship, or you have expressly consented to the sharing of your data in advance.
External service providers and partner companies, such as online payment providers or the shipping company responsible for delivery, will only receive your data to the extent necessary to process your order. In such cases, however, the scope of the
data transmitted is limited to the minimum necessary. To the extent that our service providers come into contact with your personal data, we ensure, within the framework of order processing pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR, that they comply with the provisions of data protection laws in the same manner. Please also note the respective privacy policies of the providers. The respective service provider is responsible for the content of third-party services, although we will, to the extent reasonably possible, verify that the services comply with legal requirements.
We place importance on processing your data within the EU/EEA. However, it may occur that we use service providers who process data outside the EU/EEA. In such cases, we ensure that an adequate level of data protection is established at the recipient’s end prior to the transfer of your personal data. This means that, through EU standard contractual clauses or an adequacy decision, a level of data protection is achieved that is comparable to the standards within the EU
