Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Data protection is particularly important to QRsiren Limited. The use of the public internet pages of QRsiren Limited is possible without any indication of personal data. However, if a data subject wants to make an enquiry or use restricted features of our website, processing of personal data will become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the data protection regulations applicable to QRsiren Limited in the United Kingdom. By means of this data protection statement, we propose to inform the public of the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed, by means of this data protection statement, of the rights to which they are entitled.

As the controller, QRsiren Limited has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. However, internet-based data transmissions may in principle have security gaps, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed.

3. Cookies

The internet pages of QRsiren Limited use cookies, which are text files that are stored in a computer system via an internet browser. Many internet sites and servers use cookies, containing a cookie ID, which consists of a character string through which internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited internet sites and servers to differentiate the individual browser of the data subject from other internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific internet browser can be recognised and identified using the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, QRsiren Limited can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without setting a cookie.

By means of a cookie, the information on our website can be optimised with the user in mind. Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognise our website users. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilise our website. The website uses cookies so that the user does not have to enter credentials each time the website is accessed, because this is handled by the website, and the cookie is thus stored on the user's computer system.

The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding setting of the internet browser used, and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all popular internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be entirely usable.
