Privacy Policy — Autoabsichern.de

This Privacy Policy explains how Autoabsichern.de processes personal data when you visit our website and when you submit an insurance inquiry through the forms available on our website.

Autoabsichern.de is a lead generation project for the German market. We are not an insurance company and we do not conclude insurance contracts ourselves. Data submitted through our website forms may be forwarded to licensed intermediaries or partners in order to process your inquiry and contact you by phone or email if necessary.

Privacy Information

We process personal data in accordance with the applicable data protection laws, in particular the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Below you will find information about the controller, the purposes and legal bases of processing, recipients of data, retention periods, and your rights.

1. Controller

The controller within the meaning of the GDPR is:

Karyna Poberezhska
Hörder Bruch 24
44263 Dortmund
Germany

3. What Data We May Process

Depending on how you use our website, we may process the following categories of personal data:

  • data entered into website forms, such as ZIP code, vehicle-related information, driver-related information, coverage preferences, and insurance options;
  • contact details, where requested, such as your name, email address, and phone number;
  • technical data automatically transmitted when visiting the website, such as IP address, date and time of access, requested URL, referrer URL, browser type, operating system, and device-related information;
  • cookie data and similar technologies, to the extent such technologies are actually used on the website and permitted under applicable law.

4. Purposes of Processing and Legal Bases

We process personal data only to the extent necessary for the relevant purpose. In particular, processing may take place for the following purposes:

  • handling your inquiry and providing information about the insurance product you requested (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR);
  • forwarding your data to licensed intermediaries or partners so that they can process your inquiry and contact you where necessary (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR; in individual cases Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; where consent is required, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR);
  • responding to user inquiries and providing support (Art. 6(1)(b) or Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR);
  • ensuring website security, preventing misuse, and managing technical operations, including server logs (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR);
  • compliance with legal obligations, where applicable (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR).

5. Recipients of Data

Depending on the specific case, personal data may be disclosed to the following recipients or categories of recipients:

  • licensed intermediaries and partners who process your insurance inquiry;
  • IT service providers, such as hosting providers, email providers, technical maintenance providers, and security service providers, where they act as processors on our behalf;
  • public authorities or institutions where disclosure is required by law.

If, in individual cases, inquiries are always forwarded to one specific partner, this information may be disclosed separately on the relevant page or form for transparency purposes.

6. Transfers to Third Countries

If personal data is transferred to service providers or partners located outside the European Economic Area (EEA), such transfers will take place only where the requirements of the GDPR are met, for example on the basis of an adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).

7. Retention Period

We store personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described above, unless a longer retention period is required by law.

Data submitted through website forms is generally deleted or anonymized within 90 days, unless further processing is required for handling the request, protecting legal interests, or complying with statutory retention obligations.

Technical data and server logs are stored for a limited period of time where necessary to maintain website security, stability, and proper operation.

8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies. Strictly necessary cookies are used to ensure the operation of the website and its core functionality.

Non-essential cookies, such as analytics or marketing cookies, are used only if they are actually implemented on the website and only to the extent permitted under applicable law. If a cookie consent banner or consent management platform (CMP) is used, such technologies will generally be activated only after you have provided your consent where this is legally required.

You can change your cookie preferences at any time through your browser settings or, where available, through the consent settings on our website.

9. Server Log Files

When you visit our website, the server may automatically collect and store technical information in so-called server log files. This may include your IP address, date and time of access, browser type, operating system, referrer URL, and requested pages.

This processing is necessary to ensure the stability of the website, detect technical errors, prevent misuse, and maintain security. The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority, in particular in the EU Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement.

12. Automated Decision-Making

As a rule, no automated decision-making or profiling within the meaning of Art. 22 GDPR takes place through this website.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against loss, destruction, unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure.
