Privacy Policy

Effective date: 12 October 2026

We treat the protection of your personal data with the utmost seriousness. This policy explains how we collect and process information when you engage our editorial services or interact with our website.

1. Data Controller

The entity responsible for the processing of personal data on this website is:

Basongoelyx GmbH
Share Capital: 35,000 €
Managing Director: Theresa Maier
Landstraße 142, 4020 Linz
Email: [email protected]

2. Collected Data and Purposes

We process personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Austrian Data Protection Act (DSG), and the TKG 2021. Processing occurs in the following cases:

  • Contact Requests: Name, email address, and message content when you use our contact form or write to us.
  • Order Processing: Contact and billing details required to generate offers and invoices according to our Terms and Conditions.
  • Communication: Phone numbers provided during telephonic inquiries.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of a contract) and Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in communication).

3. Data Transfer and Form Service

To process inquiries efficiently, we utilize the service FormSubmit (formsubmit.co). Consequently, data entered into our contact forms is transferred to servers located in the USA.

As the USA is not considered to have an adequate level of data protection by EU standards, this transfer is based on Standard Contractual Clauses. We ensure the provider uses the data solely for forwarding it to us. Further details on consent can be found in our Cookie Policy.

Our website is hosted by:

World4You Internet Services GmbH
Wolfgang-Pauli-Straße 2, BT3, 4020 Linz

The hosting provider processes data under a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) to ensure the technical availability and security of the site.

5. Storage Periods and Deletion

We store your data only as long as necessary to achieve the purpose of collection or as required by statutory retention periods (e.g., Austrian tax and commercial laws).

Editorial drafts and working materials are archived for a period of 12 months following the completion of the project and subsequently deleted, unless a longer retention period is legally mandated.

The consent key for data usage (stored in localStorage under the key bsng-consent) is valid for 180 days.

Under the GDPR, you are entitled to the following rights:

  • Right to access your stored personal data.
  • Right to rectification of inaccurate data.
