How do we collect your data?
Some data is collected when you provide it to us. This could, for example, be data you enter on a contact form.

Part of the data is collected to ensure the proper functioning of the website. Other data can be used to analyze your user behavior.

What rights do you have regarding your data?
You always have the right to request information about your stored data, its origin, its recipients, and the purpose of its collection at no charge. You also have the right to request for such data to be corrected, blocked, deleted or transmitted.

Furthermore, you have the right to file a complaint with the competent regulatory authorities (i.e. the ‘Commission nationale pour la protection des données’).

Analytics and third-party tools
When visiting our website, statistical analyses may be made based on your surfing behavior. This happens primarily by the use of cookies and analytics by third-party providers. The analysis of your surfing behavior is usually anonymous and can thus not be tracked back to you. You can object to this analysis or prevent it by not using certain tools. Detailed information about your objection possibilities can be found in the following privacy policy.

Data protection
The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
When using this website, various pieces of personal data will be collected. Personal information is any data with which you could be personally identified. This privacy policy outlines which information we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.
Please note that data transmitted via the internet (e.g. via email communication) may be subject to security breaches. Complete protection of your data from third-party access is not possible.

SSL or TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and for the protection of the transmission of confidential content, such as the inquiries you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection in your browser’s address line when it changes from “http://” to “https://” and the lock icon is displayed in your browser’s address bar.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transfer to us cannot be read by third parties.

The party responsible for processing data on this website is:
AVEGA S.à r.l. 
Stefan Ruppert
2 rue Edward Steichen
L-2540 Luxembourg
Telephone: +352 246 943-1
Email: data.protection@avega.lu

The responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (names, email addresses, etc.).

Revocation of your consent to the processing of your data

Cookies
Some of our web pages use cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain any viruses. Cookies help make our website more user-friendly, efficient, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.
Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain in your device’s memory until you delete them. These cookies make it possible to recognize your browser when you next visit the site.
Your browser can be set to inform you about each use of cookies, in order for you to decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept or reject a cookie. Alternatively, your browser can be configured to automatically accept cookies under certain conditions or to always reject them, or to automatically delete cookies when closing your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Cookies which are necessary to allow electronic communications or to provide certain functions you wish to use (such as the language settings) are stored because the website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies to ensure an optimized service provision free of technical errors. If other cookies (such as those used to analyze your surfing behavior) are also stored, they will be treated separately in this privacy policy.

Google-Analytics and Anonymization Function
On this website, Google-Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Irland (“Google”) is being used.
Google-Analytics uses so called ‘cookies’, i.e. text files which will be stored on your computer and which will allow for an analysis of the website’s usage to be created based on your behavior.
The information drawn from such cookies (e.g. time, location and frequency of your visit to the website, including your anonymized and shortened IP address) will be transferred to and stored by Google in the USA.
On our website, we use Google-Analytics with anonymization function. This way, your IP address will already be shortened and thereby anonymized by Google within the member states of the European Union or within other signatory states to the agreement on the European Economic Area.
Google will use this information in order to analyze your use of our website, to create reports on the website’s activity for us and to provide for additional services linked to the website and internet usage. Google may also transfer such information to third parties if required by law or if third parties process such data on behalf of Google.
Google will, by their own account, not link your IP address to any other Google data. You can avoid the installation of cookies by choosing the appropriate browser software settings; we do, however, point out that in this case you may not be able to fully make use of all functions on our website.
Furthermore, Google offers a deactivation feature for the most common browsers which provides you with more control over which data will be gathered and processed by Google. If you activate this option, no information on website visits will be transmitted to Google Analytics. The activation will, however, not prevent information being transmitted to us or to other web analysis services potentially used by us. Further information on the deactivation option provided by Google and on the activation of this option can be found by clicking on the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Contact form
In case you send us an enquiry via the contact form, we will store the data entered on the form, including the contact details you provide, in order to process your query and any follow-up questions. We will not share this information with third parties without your permission.
Any data entered onto the contact form will thus only be processed with your consent. You may revoke your consent at any time. An informal e-mail stating this request will be sufficient. The data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.
We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request their deletion, revoke your consent for their storage, or the purpose for their storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Any mandatory statutory provisions, especially those regarding mandatory data retention periods, remain unaffected by this provision.
