Hosting and server logs
When you visit this website, our server processes technically necessary data (IP address, time, page accessed, user agent) in log files. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in secure and stable operation (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The logs are retained only for a short period.
Contact and enquiry forms
If you use our forms (contact, participation enquiry), we process the data you enter solely to handle your enquiry (Art. 6(1)(a) and (b) GDPR). Enquiries are delivered to us by email and are not stored permanently in the website database.
Membership applications
We process membership applications to review and handle admission (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). Rejected applications are deleted automatically after 90 days; upon admission, the details become part of our membership records.
Newsletter
Subscription uses a double opt-in process: your email address is only stored after you confirm via the link sent to you (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time via the unsubscribe link in every issue.
Cookies and consent
By default, this website is cookie-free. Optional categories (e.g. external maps or videos) are only loaded after you give your consent; your choice is stored locally in your browser and can be changed at any time via "Cookie settings" in the page footer.
External content
Embedded third-party content (e.g. map services, videos) is only loaded after you give your consent. Your IP address may be transmitted to the respective provider; that provider's privacy policy applies.
Protection against automated requests
To protect our forms, we use Cloudflare Turnstile (legitimate interest, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). In doing so, Cloudflare, Inc. processes technical connection data (including IP address) to distinguish humans from bots. Further information: https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/
Audience measurement
We use self-hosted, cookieless statistics that do not create user profiles and do not permanently store IP addresses (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Error logging
Technical errors on the website are logged in a self-hosted system to ensure reliable operation (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). No data is passed on to third parties.
Recipients and processors
Emails (e.g. form notifications, newsletters) are sent via Microsoft 365 (Microsoft Ireland Operations Ltd.). Where required, data processing agreements are in place with service providers.
Your rights
You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection. You may withdraw any consent you have given at any time. To do so, please contact post@lokalkraft.at. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Austrian Data Protection Authority (www.dsb.gv.at).
