The protection and legally compliant processing of your data are very important to us. Your personal data are collected and processed in compliance with the applicable data protection regulations (in particular: the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)).
In this Privacy Policy, we will inform you regarding the most important aspects of data processing in the context of the website of MainGate WAYV Offenbach UG (limited liability company). Please refer to Art. 4 GDPR for the terms used herein.
By using this website, you consent to your data being collected, used and transferred as described below, in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

2. Collection and storage of personal data and the type and purpose of their use
a) When you visit the website
When you access our website wayv-tower.de, information is automatically sent to our web server by the browser being used on your end device. This information is stored temporarily in what is known as a log file. The following information is recorded without any action on your part and stored until it is automatically erased:

  • The IP address of the computer making the request,
  • The date and time of access,
  • The name and URL of the requested file,
  • The website from which the site is accessed (referrer URL),
  • The browser used, and if applicable, your computer’s operating system and the name of your access provider.

We process the above-referenced data for the following purposes:

  • To ensure that the connection to the website is established smoothly,
  • To ensure that our website is convenient to use,
  • To evaluate system security and stability, and
  • other administrative purposes.

The legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6(1)(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest derives from the data collection purposes listed above. Under no circumstances will we use the data collected for the purpose of drawing conclusions about you as an individual.

3. Contact form and e-mails
When you contact us we will store your details in order to process the request.  These details are provided voluntarily in addition to the mandatory details. If the details stored are telephone contact details, you also consent to us or the other administrative contact being able to contact you via this means of communication in order to respond to your request.

Data processing for the purpose of contacting you is carried out in accordance with Art. 6(1)(1)(a) GDPR, based on your freely given consent.

You can, of course, withdraw your declarations of consent at any time via info@wayv-tower.de.

The personal data entered by you in the contact form (first name, last name, company, e-mail address, telephone number and message content) are sent by e-mail via a WordPress plugin directly to the incoming mail server of the relevant administrative contact. To our knowledge, there is no additional storage of the data entered in the form in the WordPress database on the server of the provider hosting the website.

The personal data collected by us for the use of the contact form will be erased once your request has been dealt with.

When we are contacted by e-mail, we store the sender’s personal data transferred via the e-mail (e.g. last name, first name, e-mail address, address, telephone number) for the sole purpose of processing the request and in the event of any follow-up questions.  

The data are processed in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the aforementioned purpose. If you contact us for the purpose of entering into a contract with us, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR constitutes an additional legal basis for processing.

These data are erased once they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected. This is the case once the respective communication with the user has ended. It ends when the circumstances indicate that the issue in question has been finally resolved. Data may be stored for a longer period if this is necessary in connection with a (pre)contractual relationship or for the performance of legal obligations (e.g. statutory data retention requirements).

4. Transfer of data
Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties for purposes other than those listed below. We will only transfer your personal data to third parties if:

  • you have given your express consent to this in accordance with Art. 6(1)(1)(a) GDPR,
  • the transfer is necessary in accordance with Art. 6 (1)(1)(f) GDPR for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding and legitimate interest in your data not being transferred.
  • there is a legal obligation to transfer the data in accordance with Art. 6(1)(1)(c) GDPR, and
  • this is legally permissible and necessary for processing contractual relationships with you, in accordance with Art. 6(1)(1)(b) GDPR.

5. Cookies
We use cookies on our site. These are small files created automatically by your browser and stored on your end device (laptop, tablet, smart phone or similar) when you visit our site. Cookies do not harm your end device and do not contain any viruses, Trojans or other malware. The cookie stores information relating to the specific end device being used. However, this information does not enable us to identify you directly. One use of cookies is to make the use of our web services more convenient for you. For this purpose, we use what are known as “session cookies”, so that we can tell that you have already visited individual pages on our website. These are automatically deleted after you have left our site. We also use temporary cookies which are stored on your end device for a set period of time, in order to make the site as user-friendly as possible. If you visit our site again in order to use our services, our system will automatically recognise that you have been here before. The information and settings that you entered will also be recognised so that you do not have to enter them again. We also use cookies to collect usage statistics for our website and to evaluate them for the purpose of optimising our web services for you (see sec. 5). On subsequent visits to our site, these cookies automatically enable us to see that you have visited us before. These cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period of time. The data processed via cookies are required for the aforementioned purposes for the protection of our legitimate interests and those of third parties, in accordance with Art. 6 (1)(1)(f) GDPR. Most browsers automatically accept cookies. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer, or so that a message is always displayed before a new cookie is set. However, deactivating cookies completely may mean that you will not be able to use all the features of our website.

6. Analysis tools
We use the tracking measures listed below, on the basis of Art. 6(1)(1)(f) GDPR. We use these tracking measures to ensure that our website is tailored to meet requirements and that it is continually optimised.  We also use the tracking measures to collect usage statistics for our website and to evaluate them for the purpose of optimising our web services for you. These interests are considered to be legitimate within the meaning of the aforementioned provision.

Google Analytics
In order to ensure that our sites are tailored to meet requirements and that they are continually optimised, we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service from Google Inc. (https://www.google.de/intl/de/about; 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter referred to as “Google”). In connection with this, pseudonymised user profiles are created and cookies are used (see sec. 4). The information generated by the cookies about your use of this website, such as

  • browser type/version,
  • operating system used,
  • referrer URL (the site visited previously),
  • hostname of the accessing computer (IP address),
  • time of the server request,

is transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The information is used to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to the use of the website and internet usage for market research purposes and to ensure that these websites are tailored to meet requirements.  This information may also be transferred to third parties if and to the extent that this is required by law or if third parties process these data as contract processors. Under no circumstances will your IP address be combined with other Google data. IP addresses are anonymised so that they cannot be associated with individuals (IP-masking).
You can prevent the installation of cookies by using the appropriate settings in the browser software. However, we must point out that if you do this, you may not be able to make full use of all the functionality of this website.
You can also prevent Google from collecting and processing the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser add-on (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de).

We also use suitable technical and organisational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction, or unauthorised access by third parties. Our security measures are continually improved in line with technological developments.
