3. Providing the website

This website provides information about Qiata. Styles, scripts, logos and product illustrations are loaded from our own web hosting. The website uses system fonts available on your device. Our own content does not use analytics tools or marketing trackers, and we do not set our own tracking cookies. There is no user registration, newsletter subscription or contact form of our own. The separate information below applies to embedded appointment booking.

When you access the website, the hosting provider processes technically necessary connection data, such as your IP address, the time and requested address, and browser information. This information may constitute personal data. It is used to deliver content, operate the site securely and detect technical faults. The legal basis is our legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Your browser's address bar shows whether the connection is encrypted.

The website considers your browser's preferred languages. German is the default language. When you select a language using DE/EN, this preference is remembered under qiata-language in your browser's local storage (localStorage, or sessionStorage as a fallback). Only de or en is stored; the preference is not sent to an external service. You can change it using the language switch or remove it in your browser settings. If browser storage is unavailable, the lang URL parameter preserves your choice while navigating.

The light or dark appearance initially follows your device’s system setting. Where storage is available, a manual choice using the appearance button is saved under qiata-theme in localStorage, or sessionStorage as a fallback, as light or dark. You can change this preference using the button or remove it in your browser settings.

4. Contact and demo requests

If you contact us by email or phone, we process the contact details and content you provide to handle your enquiry and answer follow-up questions. An email link first opens your email application. Your message is only transmitted when you send it yourself.

For enquiries relating to a contract, processing is carried out to take steps prior to entering into a contract under Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Other business enquiries are processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in handling them under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Information is retained for as long as necessary to handle the enquiry or comply with statutory retention obligations.

5. Appointment booking with Microsoft Bookings

On the demo page, the Qiata team's calendar is automatically embedded through Microsoft Bookings. Your browser connects to Microsoft as soon as you open that page.

Microsoft may process your IP address and browser information in particular. When you make a booking, the appointment and contact details you enter are also transmitted. The alternative link opens the Microsoft page directly.

Leaving the demo page ends the embedding on this website. This does not retrieve data that has already been transmitted. You can alternatively request a demo by email.

Information about the service's data processing and cookies is available in the linked Microsoft privacy statement.

6. External links and downloads

This website links to documentation, changelogs, partner websites and external customer stories, among other resources. A standard link only loads the linked page when you follow it. Any processing that then takes place is governed by the respective provider's information. Automatic embedding of Microsoft Bookings is described separately above.

Locally provided PDF reports are retrieved from this website's hosting. The same technically necessary connection data is processed as for other visits to the website.

7. Your rights

Where the legal requirements are met, you have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing and data portability. You may withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out beforehand.

Where data is processed on the basis of a legitimate interest, you may object on grounds relating to your particular situation. You may object to processing for direct marketing at any time.

You may also lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. For questions about your rights, use the contact details of the controller or the data protection officer.
