Last updated: 22.07.2025

1. Introduction

At Zauber Technology GmbH (“Zauber,” “we,” “our,” “us”), we take the protection of your data seriously. This privacy policy informs you about how we collect, use, and process personal data when you visit our website (www.gozauber.com), interact with us, or use our services per the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the German Telecommunication-Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG), and ISO/IEC 27001 security standards.

3. Purposes and Legal Bases of Processing

We process personal data for the following purposes and based on the legal grounds outlined in the GDPR:

Purpose

Legal Basis

Website hosting and access logs

Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR – Legitimate interest

Communication via contact form or email

Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR – Contract initiation

Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR – Consent

  • Technical data (e.g., IP address, browser type)
  • Application data (e.g., resume, cover letter)

4. Analytics and Tracking Technologies

Zauber does not use cookies or similar technologies to track user behavior across websites. We have deliberately chosen Plausible Analytics, a privacy-friendly, open-source web analytics tool, to understand website usage in a strictly GDPR-compliant manner.

Key points:

  • No cookies are set
  • No personal data is collected
  • All data is aggregated and anonymized
  • The tool is self-hosted in the EU or operated under a DPA

We use Plausible under the legal basis of our legitimate interest in analyzing and improving our website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Since no information is stored on or read from your device, §25 TTDSG does not apply, and no cookie banner is required.
