Who we are

Our website address is: https://visitweggis.com.

Cookies

Cookies help in many ways to make your visit to our website simpler, more pleasant and more meaningful. Cookies are information files that your web browser automatically stores on your computer’s hard drive when you visit our website. Cookies neither damage your computer’s hard drive nor do they transfer the user’s personal data to us. We use cookies, for example, to personalise the information, offers and advertisements that you see and to better align ourselves to your individual interests. Their use does not mean that we receive new personal data about you as an online visitor. Most Internet browsers accept cookies automatically. It is possible, however, to configure your settings so that only strictly necessary cookies are stored on your computer.

Disabling cookies may prevent you from being able to use all of the features on our website.

Purpose

Data is collected and processed for the purpose of allowing you to use our website (establishing a connection), ensuring system security and stability in the long term and allowing our Internet offering to be optimised, as well as for internal statistical purposes. This is our legitimate interest in the processing of data within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The IP address (masked) in particular is used in order to determine the country of residence of the visitor to the website and set the language of the website accordingly, as well as for statistical purposes.

When you visit our website, we also use what are known as pixels and cookies to display advertising that is personalised for you and to use web analysis services. Further details of this can be found within this same document.

Data

When you visit our website, the following data is collected and stored, without any action on your part, until it is automatically deleted by us after 12 months at the latest:

  • the IP address of the accessing computer
  • the time and date of access
  • the name and URL of the file called up
  • the website from which access is made
  • the operating system of your computer and the browser used
  • the country from which access is made and the language settings of your browser
  • the name of your Internet access provider

When you use our contact form, the following data is collected and stored in order to answer your queries in an optimum manner and in a way that is tailored to you:

  • Title
  • First name and Last name
  • Telephone number
  • E-mail address

Tracking tools

On our website we use various tracking tools. These tracking tools are used to monitor your surfing behaviour on our website. This is for the purposes of needs-based design and continuous optimisation of our website. In connection with this, pseudonymised usage profiles are created and small text files that are saved on your computer (“cookies”) are used.

Use of data for advertising purposes

To provide you with personalised services and information on our website (on-site targeting), we use and analyse the data that we collect about you when you visit the website. For the corresponding data processing, what are known as cookies may be used where necessary. The analysis of your user behaviour may be used to create what is known as a usage profile. The usage data is combined only with pseudonymous data, and never with data that has not been pseudonymised.

To allow personalised marketing in social networks, we incorporate so-called remarketing pixels from Meta and Twitter (X) into the website. If you have an account with one of these social networks and are logged in at the time of your visit to our website, this pixel links the visit to our website with your account. Log out of your account prior to visiting our website if you would like to prevent this link from being made. Further advertising settings can be made from in your user profile in the relevant social networks.

The creation of pseudonymised user profiles for advertising and analysis purposes is based on a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. This applies to all data processing operations listed in this Section 2. The legitimate interest lies in direct marketing and analysis of the use of our website.

Retargeting

We use retargeting technologies on this website. These technologies analyse your user behaviour on our website to subsequently offer you advertising that is tailored specifically to you on partner websites. Your user behaviour is collected in a pseudonymised form. Most retargeting technologies work with cookies.

This website uses Google Adsservices offered by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043,USA (“Google”), in order to place advertisements based on the use of websites visited previously. To do so, Google uses its own cookies, which allows your browser to be recognised when visiting other websites. The information collected by the cookie about visits to these websites is transferred to a Google server in the United States and stored there.

Google will use this information to analyse your use of the website with respect to the advertisements placed, in order to compile reports about website activity and advertisements for the website operator and to provide further services that are linked to usage of the website and the Internet in general. Google will also transfer this information to third parties in certain cases, where this is required by law or if the said third parties process this data on Google’s behalf. Google will under no circumstances associate your IP address with other data from Google, however.

In order to manage usage-based advertising services, we also use Google Tag Manager. The Tag Manager tool itself is a cookieless domain and does not collect any personal data. Instead, the tool ensures the activation of other tags that may for their part collect certain data. If you have opted for deactivation this at a domain or cookie level, this deactivation will continue to apply for all tracking tags that are implemented with Google Tag Manager.

You may choose to prevent retargeting at any time by rejecting or disabling the relevant cookies in the menu bar of your web browser.

META and X ANALYTICS

For statistical purposes, our website uses the Pixels from Twitter Inc. (X) and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited (Meta). The pixel allows us to track the behaviour of users once they have been sent to our website after clicking on a X and Meta advertisement. This process is used to analyse the effectiveness of X and Meta advertisements for statistical and market research purposes and can help to optimise future advertising measures as a result.

The data collected during this process does not allow us to draw any conclusions as to the identity of the user. The data from X and Meta is stored and processed, however, which means that a link to the profile of the relevant user is possible and X and Meta may use this data for its own advertising purposes. This data may allow X and Meta and its partners to place advertisements on and outside of X and Meta. For these purposes, a cookie may also be stored and read on your computer.

Rigths of:

You have the right to receive information about the personal data that we store about you free of charge upon request. In addition, you have the right to correct inaccurate data and the right to delete your personal data, as far as there is no statutory storage obligation or another legal basis for the processing in the sense of art. 6 GDPR that allows us to continue processing the data. You also have the right to reclaim from us the data you have given us (right to data portability).

You can reach us for the aforementioned purposes via the contact form available in this website. We may, at our sole discretion, require proof of identity to process your requests.

Data Storage

We only store personal information for as long as it is necessary:

  • To use the above tracking advertising and analysis services within the scope of our legitimate interest
  • To comply with legal obligations
