II. General information on data processing

The basis of effective data protection is comprehensive information about the collection, processing and use of your data (“data processing”). Therefore we would like to inform you,

  • when or for which actions we process data,
  • which data we process for which reasons,
  • who receives data,
  • which rights you have because of the data processing through us.

This privacy policy governs the use of personal data on any English website in the address space ‘hornetsecurity.com’, unless otherwise stated. If you leave our websites via a link or visit our websites on a social media platform, you leave the scope of this data protection declaration.

The transmission of information to or from these websites is secured with TLS encryption.

You can download this data protection declaration permanently and at any time at the address https://www.hornetsecurity.com/en/privacy/, print it out or download it.

1. Scope of the processing of personal data

The provision of the websites requires the processing of various information. In addition, the scope of data processing depends on your use of the functionalities of the websites, for example if you communicate with us via the contact form or consent to the processing of data.

You are not obliged to provide us with personal data. However, if the provision of this data is technically mandatory when you access our site, refusal will result in your being unable to access and use our websites.

As a visitor to our websites, you are not subject to any automated decision-making within the meaning of Art. 22 GDPR.

3. Data erasure and storage time

We will delete your personal data as soon as the legal basis for their processing ceases to exist. In some cases, however, legal bases can also exist in parallel or, in the absence of a legal basis, can intervene in a new one, such as the obligation to store certain data in order to fulfil a legal obligation to store data.

III. Data processing for providing the website

In order for us to display the websites to you, it is necessary to process certain information. This is already done when you visit our website. In addition, we offer various functionalities on our websites which require further data processing.

1. Log Files

When you use our services or visit our websites, various information is passed on to our servers. We need these to establish and maintain the connection. Among the data is also your IP address, which we treat as personal data. In addition, the following data is collected:

  • your IP address
  • the page you visit on our site
  • date and time of your visit
  • browser version
  • operating system

We store this data in so-called server log files. This data is not combined with any other data about you. The storage of log files including your IP address serves the legitimate interest of providing our websites and preventing its misuse. Stored log files will be deleted after 10 weeks at the latest, unless longer storage is required, for example to prevent or clarify an attack on our websites.

2. Cookies

We use cookies to establish and maintain the connection. A cookie is a small text file containing information transmitted by your browser and stored on your computer. You can also control the use of cookies in your browser and delete cookies yourself at any time. Cookies may be required to establish a connection or to improve the use of the website.

You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website.

The use of technically conditioned cookies and the associated data processing takes place due to our legitimate interest in a technically flawless and comfortable use of our websites. Technically conditioned cookies are usually deleted automatically when you close your browser (session cookies), in other cases only after some time (persistent cookies). The duration of storage of persistent cookies is determined by the provider and can be viewed by you in your browser, for example.

You can find more detailed information in our cookie policies.

3. Contact Forms

At various points on our website you will find contact forms via which you can send us an enquiry or, for example, request a quotation for one of our services. For general inquiries, the following information is requested: recipient at Hornetsecurity, company, name, email address, telephone and your message. When you request a quotation for our services, you must provide the following information: first name, last name, email address, telephone number, company size, job title, business type. The information is marked as mandatory fields. All other data that you transmit to us within the scope of the inquiry, also via the free text field, are voluntary.

We use this data exclusively for answering your inquiry and the associated communication. The legal basis for processing this information and all data stored in Hornetsecurity’s services is the necessity to fulfil the existing contractual relationship. In principle, our legitimate interest in providing the contact functionality and responding to your enquiry transmitted via it applies here. If your request is aimed at concluding a contract with us, the processing will take place within the framework of this pre-contractual obligation.

In case of a contract conclusion, we process the data if necessary for the fulfilment of the contract.

4. Hubspot

We use HubSpot, a marketing and customer relationship management platform provided by HubSpot, Inc., 25 First Street, Cambridge, MA 02141, USA, as part of our marketing, communication, and data processing.

HubSpot is used to collect and consolidate information from various marketing channels, including our websites (e.g. forms for downloads, webinars, on-demand webinar registrations, trial requests), online advertising campaigns (such as LinkedIn Ads and Google Ads), and registration for on- and offline events.

The personal data collected via HubSpot may include, depending on the context, first and last name, email address, country, telephone number, company, company size, job title, business type, and information on how you became aware of our offers. This data is processed for the purpose of handling inquiries and registrations, managing and optimizing our marketing activities, and communicating with interested parties, newsletter subscribers, and business partners.

We also use HubSpot to automate certain communication processes by means of workflows, for example to send confirmation emails, follow-up communications, newsletters, or information related to on-site and online events.

As part of our business operations, data processed in HubSpot is synchronized with our CRM and made available to our sales departments. This enables us to process inquiries efficiently, maintain up-to-date customer and prospect information, and manage customer relationships.

HubSpot also allows us to analyze the performance of our marketing activities, for example by evaluating interaction data such as email open and click rates or engagement with our content. These analyses help us to improve our marketing measures and tailor our communications to the interests of recipients.

When you visit our websites, HubSpot may use cookies and similar technologies to recognize your browser and collect information about your use of our online services. Further details on the use of cookies can be found in our Cookie Policy.

You may revoke your consent to the processing of your personal data for marketing purposes at any time with effect for the future. You can do so, for example, by using the unsubscribe link included in our marketing emails or by contacting us directly. Revoking consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to revocation.

Further information on data processing by HubSpot can be found in HubSpot’s privacy policy.

4.1. Information on newsletter subscription

With the following information, we inform you about our newsletters, the registration process, dispatch, statistical evaluation, and your right to object. By subscribing to our newsletter, you consent to receiving the newsletter and to the processing activities described below. We only send newsletters, emails, and other electronic notifications containing promotional information (hereinafter “newsletters”) on the basis of the recipient’s consent or a legal authorization. If the content of a newsletter is specifically described during registration, such description is decisive for the scope of the consent given.

a) Double opt-in procedure and logging

Subscription to our newsletter (referred to on our websites as “Release Notes Newsletter” or “IT Pro Tuesday”) takes place using a double opt-in procedure. After registration, you will receive an email requesting confirmation of your subscription. This confirmation is required to prevent misuse of email addresses by unauthorized third parties.

To be able to demonstrate compliance with legal requirements, newsletter subscriptions are logged. This includes storing the time of registration and confirmation as well as the IP address used.

b) Statistical analysis

Our newsletters contain a so-called web beacon (a pixel-sized file) that is retrieved from HubSpot’s servers when the newsletter is opened. In the course of this retrieval, technical information such as browser type, operating system, IP address, and time of access is collected.

This information is used to technically optimize our newsletters and to better understand recipient engagement, for example based on access times or approximate location (derived from the IP address). Statistical analyses also include determining whether newsletters are opened, when they are opened, and which links are clicked.

For technical reasons, this information can be associated with individual newsletter recipients. However, neither we nor HubSpot intend to monitor individual users. The analyses are used solely to evaluate overall user behavior, optimize content, and tailor newsletters to the interests of our recipients.

c) Unsubscription and revocation of consent

You may unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time and thereby revoke your consent. Upon unsubscription, your consent to receive newsletters via HubSpot and to the associated statistical analysis will also be withdrawn. Separate revocation of newsletter dispatch and statistical analysis is not possible.

4. Partner-Portal

If you are interested in distributing our services as a Hornetsecurity partner, you can register via our websites in our partner program. To do this, you must fill out the online partner application in the course of which you must provide various information about your company and your contact persons. The mandatory information is marked in each case. All other information is provided voluntarily.

In this respect, the legal basis of the processing is the execution of pre-contractual measures or, upon conclusion of the partner contract, the necessity for the performance of the contract. The storage period is measured accordingly in principle on the duration of the contractual relationship. However, alternative legal bases, such as legal storage periods, can intervene after their end.

5. Online application

You can also apply to us at any time using our online application form. Personal data is transmitted to us as part of the application via our websites. This can be done directly via the input fields or indirectly via application documents to be uploaded, such as your CV. The information marked as mandatory in the registration form is mandatory. All other information, even if included in the uploaded application documents, is voluntary. We process your data only to the extent necessary to carry out the application procedure. 

By submitting your information on our Careers page or by registering for the Talent Pool, you also agree that we may contact and inform you in writing and by telephone as part of our recruitment marketing or talent retention programs. Should you no longer wish to do so at a later date, you can have your data deleted at any time without giving any reasons. All you need to do is send a short message to [email protected].

The legal basis of the processing is the necessity for the initiation of an employment relationship. Your data will be stored for a period of 90 days after the end of the application process, unless you have given us your consent to further storage.

This process is supported by an HR tool which Hornetsecurity GmbH uses for candidate management and personnel administration.

Further information is available under the following link:https://www.hornetsecurity.com/en/privacy-policy-personio.

6. LiveChat

Hornetsecurity has integrated the LiveChat component on this website. LiveChat is a live support helpdesk software that enables the establishment of direct communication in real time (so-called live chat) with visitors to its own website. The developer of the LiveChat component is LiveChat, Inc, One International Place, Suite 1400, Boston, MA 02110-2619, United States of America.

With each individual visit to our website that is equipped with a LiveChat component, data is collected by this component for the purpose of operating the LiveChat system and analysing the operation of the system. Further information on LiveChat can be found at https://www.livechatinc.com/legal/privacy-policy/#main and https://www.livechatinc.com/legal/gdpr-faq/#main. The chat component sets a cookie on the computer, tablet or smartphone of the data subject. What cookies are has already been explained above.

Pseudonymised usage profiles can be created via the LiveChat cookie. In the process, the following information is recorded from each person and kept until the agent closes the chat system, this usually happens after 4-10 hours: Pages visited, duration of pages visited, in some cases the referrer, device, browser, user agent.

Such pseudonymised usage profiles may be used by the controller to carry out an analysis of visitor behaviour and also to analyse and maintain the proper operation of the live chat system. The analysis also serves to improve our offer. The data collected via the LiveChat component is only assigned to the data subject when he or she starts the chat and provides his or her personal data (name & e-mail). If the request can already be clarified in the chat, the information is deleted as soon as the agent closes the chat system.

7. GoToWebinar

We use a plugin provided by GoToWebinar (GoTo Technologies Ireland Unlimited Company, The Reflector, 10 Hanover Quay, Dublin, Ireland) to offer webinars to website visitors, end users, and business partners. Registration forms provided by GoToWebinar are integrated into our website and can be used to register for webinars.

When registering for a webinar, the following personal data may be collected: first and last name, email address, country, telephone number, company, company size, job title, business type (e.g. reseller, end user, distributor), and information on how you became aware of the webinar.

The processing of this data is carried out for the purpose of organizing and conducting webinars. Further information on how GoTo processes personal data can be found in GoTo’s privacy policy at: https://www.goto.com/company/trust/privacy

8. Other personal data

We would like to point out once again that on these websites Google Analytics has been extended by the code “_anonymizeIp();” in order to guarantee anonymous collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). Hornetsecurity GmbH therefore does not store any personal data of a website visitor.

Clearly personal data is only collected if you provide it voluntarily, e.g. in the case of individual inquiries/as part of an application/talent loyalty programme or in the case of a service or support inquiry via a contact form, by e-mail, online or in writing. We may forward your personal data to the department responsible for the processing of your inquiry/application. Your personal data is processed and stored via the marketing automation tool ActiveCampaign, the ticket system OTRS and our servers. Furthermore, the data will not be passed on to third parties or used for purposes other than those stated in each case. Personal data transmitted to us (e.g. name, address, telephone number, fax number or e-mail address) will only be used to answer your inquiry or to process your request or application. With explicit consent (double opt-in procedure) your personal data will also be used for advertising purposes. They are only stored by us for as long as this is necessary for the aforementioned purposes or as we are legally obliged to store them. You have the possibility to withdraw your consent at any time. Please contact our data protection officer (see above). We would like to point out that messages via e-mail in unencrypted form are not an absolutely secure means of communication against access by third parties and in particular also become accessible to the e-mail provider.

IV. Usage analysis and tracking

We would like to further improve the usability of these websites as well as the attractiveness of its services. For this reason, when you visit our websites, we also collect data on usage behaviour, which we evaluate for this purpose. For this reason, the following tracking and analysis cookies are used on our websites. A cookie is a small text file containing information that is transmitted by your browser and stored on your computer. These cookies contain no personal data. You can also control the use of cookies in your browser and delete cookies yourself at any time. Cookies may be necessary for establishing a connection or improving the use of the websites. You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of these websites to their full extent. The legal basis for the usage analysis is your cookie consent in accordance with § 25 para. 1 TTDSG in conjunction with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.

However, we only use Google Analytics with an anonymisation function in which the IP address is reduced before it is transmitted by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to Google in the USA and only shortened there. Google analyses the information collected and sends us reports on the usage activities on our websites and provides us with additional services for this purpose. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.

In addition to blocking all cookies by your browser, you can prevent Google from processing your data by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

2. Google AdWords

Our websites use the advertising tool “Google AdWords” from Google including its conversion tracking. We use this tool to determine how successful advertising for our services on websites other than our own is. For this purpose, a conversion cookie is set when you click on one of our advertisements. This cookie enables us to recognize that you have accessed our websites via this ad. We use such usage statistics to compile statistics for evaluating the conversion of our advertisements. We do not receive any information about you personally. The conversion cookie set in your browser is individual and cannot be used by other Google AdWords customers for their statistics.

You can prevent tracking by disabling the conversion tracking cookie in your browser settings.

3. Google Tag Manager

We use Google Tag Manager, a tag management system provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Tag Manager itself does not set cookies and does not collect personal data. It is used solely to manage and deploy other tools and tags on our website, such as analytics or marketing services. These tools may, depending on their configuration, set cookies or process personal data.

Any data processing that occurs via tags implemented through Google Tag Manager takes place only if you have given your consent for the respective cookie category (e.g. statistics or marketing) via our cookie consent management tool. The legal basis and purposes of such processing are described separately for the respective tools in this Cookie Policy and in our Privacy Policy.

Further information on data processing by Google can be found in Google’s privacy policy.

4. HubSpot

We use cookies and similar technologies provided by HubSpot (HubSpot, Inc., 25 First Street, Cambridge, MA 02141, USA) to support our marketing, communication, and analytics activities.

  • enable and improve website forms (e.g. for content downloads, webinar registrations, and trial requests),
  • support email marketing activities and measure campaign performance (e.g. open and click behavior),
  • associate website interactions with submissions of forms, where consent has been given.

Depending on the cookie category, HubSpot cookies may collect information such as IP address, device and browser information, pages visited, access times, referral URLs, and interactions with website content. This information may be linked to a user profile if the user has provided personal data via a form and has consented to such processing.

The use of HubSpot cookies that are not strictly necessary requires your consent and is carried out via our cookie consent management tool. You may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future by adjusting your cookie settings.

Further information on cookies used by HubSpot and their functionality can be found in HubSpot’s privacy policy and documentation.

V. Social Networks

We operate our own presences in the social networks Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Youtube (Google Ireland Limited) and Xing. These networks process your personal data, for example, to create usage profiles corresponding to your interests. Cookies may be stored on your device for this purpose. You can find more detailed information on data processing by the individual networks in the respective data protection information and, if applicable, in the cookie policies of the networks:

This data protection information also contains information about the type and scope of data processing by the respective networks, as well as the options for asserting your data subject rights (right to information, confirmation, correction, deletion, restriction, data portability and complaint to the competent data protection supervisory authority).

We do not know which user data the social networks collect. We do not get full access to the collected user data or user profiles. We can only access public profile information. What information you choose to make public can be customized through your account settings.

If available, we use user data from the chat features to answer your questions. Customer data collected is used to contact the user to provide requested information and offers.

We may receive anonymous statistics from social networks based on legitimate interest in the use of our site such as.

  • Followers: number of people who follow us – including growth and development over a defined period of time.
  • Reach: number of people who see a particular post. Number of interactions on a post. For example, you can deduce which content is better than others in the community.
  • Ad performance: how many people saw and interacted with an ad or article.
