Privacy Policy — Autoabsichern.de

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

Autoabsichern.de is a lead-request project for the German market. We are not an insurance company and we do not conclude insurance contracts. Requests submitted via our forms may be forwarded to licensed intermediaries/partners who may contact you by phone or email.

Privacy information

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

1) Controller

The controller within the meaning of the GDPR is:
Karyna Poberezhska
Hörder Bruch 24
44263 Dortmund
Germany
Email: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

2) Contact for privacy requests

For all privacy-related requests (access, deletion, objection, etc.), please contact: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. If a Data Protection Officer is appointed, we will add the relevant details here.

3) What data we process

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

  • Form data (e.g., ZIP code, vehicle/driver-related information, desired coverage/options).
  • Contact details, if requested (e.g., name, email address, phone number).
  • Technical data (e.g., IP address, timestamp, URL, referrer, browser/device information) to deliver and secure the website (server logs).
  • Cookie/tracking data only if used and to the extent required/permitted (see “Cookies” section).

4) Purposes and legal bases

We process personal data for the following purposes and based on the following legal bases:

  • Handling your request and providing the information you requested (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b)).
  • Forwarding to licensed intermediaries/partners so they can contact you and assist with offers/possible contract conclusion (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b); where applicable Art. 6(1)(f); for consent-based contact methods, where required, Art. 6(1)(a)).
  • Communication and support (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b) or Art. 6(1)(f)).
  • Security and abuse prevention (e.g., fraud/spam prevention, server logs) (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)).
  • Compliance with legal obligations, where applicable (GDPR Art. 6(1)(c)).

5) Recipients / categories of recipients

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

  • Licensed intermediaries/partners to process your inquiry and contact you if necessary.
  • IT service providers (e.g., hosting, email, maintenance, security providers) acting as processors.
  • Authorities/institutions where we are legally required to do so.

If inquiries are forwarded exclusively to one specific partner (e.g., always to the same intermediary), it is often advisable to name that recipient explicitly here for transparency.

6) Transfers to third countries

If service providers or partners outside the European Economic Area (EEA) are used, transfers will take place only if the GDPR requirements are met (e.g., adequacy decision or Standard Contractual Clauses).

7) Retention period

We store personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described above or where statutory retention obligations apply. Inquiry/lead data is typically deleted or anonymized within 90 days, unless further processing or a legal obligation requires longer storage.

8) Cookies and similar technologies

We may use cookies or similar technologies. Strictly necessary cookies are used to operate the website. Non-essential cookies (e.g., analytics/marketing) — if used — will be set only with your consent where required.

If a cookie banner/consent management platform (CMP) is used, non-essential cookies are generally activated only after opt-in.

9) Your rights

Subject to applicable requirements, you have the following rights: access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, objection to processing based on legitimate interests, and withdrawal of consent with effect for the future.

10) Right to lodge a complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a 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.

11) Data security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect data against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access.

12) Minors

Our service is not directed at children. Please do not submit data if you are not of legal age or without the consent of a parent/guardian.

13) Updates to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect legal or technical changes.
