The responsible party (data controller) for processing your personal data is: ProtoVela UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Dr. Kornelius Zeth Am Biopark 13 · Biopark III 93053 Regensburg Bavaria — Germany Email: info@protovela.com

When you use our website, the following personal data may be processed: • Contact details and messages (name, email address and the content of your message) that you provide through our contact form. • Technically required access data (such as IP address, browser type, referring URL and time/date of access) in the hosting provider's server logs.

We process your personal data only as permitted by law. The main purposes are: • To respond to your inquiries (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR — performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures). • To ensure the functionality and security of our website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — legitimate interest). • To comply with legal obligations (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR).

This website currently uses no analytics or marketing cookies and no visitor tracking. Your language choice is stored only in your browser's local storage so it can be retained for your next visit. You can remove this information at any time through your browser's website-data settings.

We do not sell or rent your personal data. Hosting, CDN, DNS and security: For the intended launch, we use Cloudflare Pages and other services provided by Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. When the website is accessed, Cloudflare processes technically necessary connection and traffic data, in particular the IP address, requested URL, time, and device and browser information, to deliver the website and maintain its stability and security. Processing outside the European Economic Area cannot be ruled out. The applicable Cloudflare data-protection agreements and transfer mechanisms, including applicable Standard Contractual Clauses, provide the contractual basis. Contact form: The contact form is transmitted through FormSubmit (formsubmit.co). This processes your name, email address and message and forwards them to our email address. According to FormSubmit, submissions may be retained in its form archive for up to 30 days. Do not use it to transmit sequences, structures or other confidential project data. Processing outside the European Economic Area cannot be ruled out for form delivery either. Data is otherwise shared only where required to operate and secure the website or by law.

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. We retain contact enquiries only as long as required to process them, answer follow-up questions or meet legal retention duties. FormSubmit states that its form archive retains submissions for up to 30 days. Technical server logs are deleted according to the retention periods of the selected hosting provider.

You have the right to: • Access, correct, or delete your personal data (Art. 15–17 GDPR). • Withdraw your consent to data processing at any time (Art. 7(3) GDPR). • Object to data processing for legitimate reasons (Art. 21 GDPR). • File a complaint with a supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR).
