Aviko Privacy Statement
This privacy statement explains who we are, which personal data we collect about you, why we collect it, and what we do with it. For the purposes of this privacy statement, personal data refers to any information, or set of information, that directly or indirectly identifies you, such as your name, email address or telephone number.
Aviko considers the privacy and data protection of customers and visitors who access information via its website to be very important. Therefore, Aviko has implemented the necessary organizational and technical safeguards to protect your personal data. All data collected by Aviko to provide you with our products or services is processed in accordance with applicable privacy legislation.
Through this privacy statement, we aim to ensure that you clearly understand which personal data Aviko processes and how that data is handled. This privacy statement applies to all processing of your personal data by or on behalf of Aviko and informs you about our privacy policy and the technical and organisational measures taken with respect to the personal data we may collect when you use the Aviko websites or during other interactions with Aviko.

2. Which personal data do we collect?
During your visit to Aviko websites, we may collect various personal data about you. This data may be provided by you, for example, if you subscribe to our messaging service (such as via email, mail, or WhatsApp) or when you contact us using a form on the website. Data generated during your website visit may also be collected automatically.
The personal data we collect may include: your name, email address, (mobile) phone number, address information (including postal code and city), business information (employer or contact details of your employer) and information about your website visit (such as IP address). We may also obtain certain personal data through the use of cookies. Cookies are text files that the browser "remembers" and stores on your computer at the website’s request. With the help of cookies, acting as a memory aid, the website can remember certain information so it does not have to be re-entered.
This website uses Google Analytics for web analysis, a service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses cookies. The data about your website usage (including your IP address) collected through cookies is transferred to and stored on a Google server in the United States (“U.S.”). Due to IP anonymization activated on these websites, your IP address is shortened by Google in advance within the member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area ("EEA"). Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the U.S. and shortened there. Google will use the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as a basis for data transfer from the EU to the U.S. to provide appropriate safeguards for data protection. SCCs are approved by the European Commission and cannot be modified by the parties using them.
Google uses this data to analyse your website use, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services related to website and internet use. Google may also transfer this data to third parties if legally required or if such third parties process the data on Google's behalf. If these parties are located in countries without an adequate level of data protection according to European standards, SCCs will again be used. Google will never combine your IP address with other Google data. We have configured Google Analytics to delete the last part of visitors' IP addresses. If you do not want information about your website visit to be passed on to Google Analytics, you can install the 'Opt-out Browser Add-on.'
3. Why do we collect your personal data?
We primarily collect your personal data to support Aviko’s regular business operations. In addition, we may use your personal data for the sale of our products and for the performance of our services, including financial processing. We may also use your data to inform you and maintain our relationship with you. Your data is also used for internal visitor analysis to further optimise the website. Your personal data may also be required for our own internal administration, accounting controls, and legal compliance.
Your personal data is used only for the purposes described above or for compatible purposes. Aviko collects your personal data either based on your consent, because such data is necessary to enter into an agreement, because we have a legitimate interest as described in this privacy statement or because we are legally required to do so.
4. Who has access to your personal data?
Your data is used only as necessary and only by employees or personnel designated by Aviko or acting on behalf of Aviko. This includes personnel of all group companies and/or external parties processing data on behalf of Aviko, such as service providers (IT providers) and business partners (media agencies and marketing agencies). Aviko requires these external parties to implement security measures as strict as its own to protect your personal data.
If personal data is transferred outside the EEA, the legal requirements for such transfers are met. Apart from sharing data with the parties mentioned above, Aviko will not make your personal data available to third parties unless required to comply with legal obligations.
5. How do we protect your personal data?
Aviko continually takes appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, deletion, disclosure, and misuse, and to safeguard the accuracy and integrity of your personal data. These measures are regularly evaluated and updated where necessary.
6. How long do we retain your personal data?
Aviko retains your personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this privacy statement. If Aviko processes personal data based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. For example, personal data provided for subscribing to our messaging service are deleted once you unsubscribe. Data provided to request information from us are used once to fulfill your request. For statistical purposes, Aviko may retain personal data longer than strictly necessary, but additional safeguards will be applied to ensure minimal data processing.
7. How can you exercise your rights?
If you have questions about the processing of your personal data by Aviko or if you wish to access, delete, correct, modify your personal data, object to its processing or request restriction of processing you can contact Aviko using the contact details above. Aviko will generally respond within one month.
If you are subscribed to our messaging service but no longer wish to receive messages from us, you can unsubscribe via the link provided in the relevant message.
If you have a complaint about the processing of your personal data, you can file a complaint with the competent supervisory authority, which in the UK is the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
8. Links to other websites
Our website contains links to websites of group companies as well as links to non-Aviko websites. Group company websites may have different, specific privacy terms. External non-Aviko websites may apply different privacy rules. It is your responsibility to be aware of and check these before providing information to such websites.
