As of 08.04.2026
1. Responsible Party
The responsible party in terms of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is:
pruve GmbH
Dachauer Straße 159
80636 Munich
Germany
Email: [email protected]
Commercial Register: HRB 304961 at the Munich District Court
2. Contact Details of the Data Protection Officer
As fewer than 20 persons are permanently engaged in the processing of personal data in our company, the appointment of a Data Protection Officer under Art. 37 GDPR is not required. For questions regarding data protection, please contact us directly using the contact details provided above.
3. General Information on Data Processing
3.1 Scope of Processing Personal Data
We process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users generally occurs only with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by legal regulations.
3.2 Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data
Insofar as we obtain consent from the data subject for the processing of personal data, Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.
In the case of processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.
Insofar as processing personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If the processing is necessary for the protection of legitimate interests of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the aforementioned interest, Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
3.3 Data Deletion and Storage Duration
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Storage may also occur if this is provided for by European or national legislation in union law regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted when a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned norms expires, unless there is a necessity for further storage of the data for the conclusion of a contract or for contract fulfilment.
4. Provision of the Website and Creation of Log Files
4.1 Description and Scope of Data Processing
Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the calling device.
The following data is collected:
Information about the browser type and version used
The user's operating system
The user's internet service provider
Date and time of access
Websites from which the user's system accesses our website
Websites that are accessed by the user's system via our website
Important note:We use cookieless server-side analytics. IP addresses are not stored, and all data is collected exclusively in an anonymised form in our server logs.
The data is also stored in the log files of our system. There is no storage of this data together with other personal data of the user.
4.2 Legal Basis for Data Processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
4.3 Purpose of Data Processing
The temporary storage of anonymised data by the system is necessary to enable the delivery of the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session, but it is not recorded in the log files.
The storage in log files is carried out to ensure the functionality of the website. Additionally, the data is used to optimise the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.
4.4 Duration of storage
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary for the purpose of their collection. In the case of data collected for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.
In the case of data stored in log files, this will occur after a maximum of seven days. Further storage is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users will be deleted or anonymised, so that assignment to the calling client is no longer possible.
5. Use of cookies
Our website does not use cookies. We rely solely on cookieless server-side analytics to ensure the functionality of our website and to create anonymised usage statistics.
6. Contact form and email contact
6.1 Description and scope of data processing
Our website has a contact form that can be used for electronic contact. If a user takes advantage of this option, the data entered in the input mask will be transmitted to us and stored. This data includes:
Email address
Message
Newsletter subscription (optional)
Consent to the privacy policy (required)
At the time of sending the message, the following data will also be stored:
Date and time of registration
Your consent is obtained for the processing of the data as part of the submission process, and reference is made to this privacy policy.
Alternatively, contact can be made via the provided email address. In this case, the personal data of the user transmitted with the email will be stored.
In this context, there is no transfer of data to third parties. The data will be used solely for the processing of the conversation.
6.2 Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of the data is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, provided that there is consent from the user.
The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of sending an email is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. If the email contact aims at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.
6.3 Purpose of data processing
The processing of personal data from the input form is solely for the purpose of handling the contact request. In the case of contact via email, there is also the necessary legitimate interest in processing the data.
6.4 Duration of storage
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary for the purpose of their collection. For the personal data from the input mask of the contact form and those sent by email, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is considered to be ended when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.
6.5 Right to object and removal
The user has the right to withdraw their consent to the processing of personal data at any time. If the user contacts us by email, they can object to the storage of their personal data at any time. In such a case, the conversation cannot be continued.
All personal data that has been stored during the contact process will be deleted in this case.
7. Newsletter
7.1 Description and scope of data processing
On our company's website, there is the option to subscribe to a free newsletter. When signing up for the newsletter, the data from the input mask is transmitted to us.
In addition, the following data is collected:
Email address
Date and time of registration
Your consent is obtained for the processing of the data as part of the registration process, and reference is made to this privacy policy.
Double opt-in procedure:After registration, you will receive a confirmation email in which you must confirm your registration by clicking on a link. Only after this confirmation will you be added to the mailing list. This procedure complies with the German GDPR requirements.
In connection with the data processing for the dispatch of newsletters, there is no transfer of data to third parties. The data will be used exclusively for the dispatch of the newsletter.
7.2 Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of data after the user registers for the newsletter is, in the presence of the user's consent, Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
7.3 Purpose of data processing
The collection of the user's email address serves to deliver the newsletter.
7.4 Duration of storage
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary for the purpose for which they were collected. The user's email address will therefore be stored as long as the newsletter subscription is active.
7.5 Right to object and removal
The newsletter subscription can be cancelled by the affected user at any time. For this purpose, there is a corresponding link in every newsletter.
This also allows for the withdrawal of consent for the storage of personal data collected during the registration process.

We use our own Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system to manage customer relationships and inquiries.
The following data is stored in the CRM:

the purposes for which the personal data is processed;
the categories of personal data that are processed;
the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data concerning you has been or will be disclosed;
the planned duration of storage of the personal data concerning you or, if specific details are not possible, the criteria for determining the storage duration;

all available information about the source of the data, if the personal data is not collected from the data subject;
the existence of automated decision-making including profiling pursuant to Art. 22(1) and (4) GDPR and – at least in these cases – meaningful information about the logic involved as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject.
9.2 Right to rectification
You have the right to rectification and/or completion with respect to the controller, provided that the personal data concerning you is inaccurate or incomplete. The controller must rectify it without delay.
9.3 Right to restriction of processing
Under the following conditions, you may request the restriction of processing of personal data concerning you:
if you contest the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period that enables the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and instead request the restriction of the use of the personal data;
the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you need it for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims, or
if you have lodged an objection to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override your grounds.
9.4 Right to erasure
You can request the controller to erase your personal data without delay, and the controller is obliged to erase this data without delay, provided that one of the following reasons applies:
The personal data concerning you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
You withdraw your consent on which the processing is based according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.

The personal data concerning you have been processed unlawfully.
The erasure of the personal data concerning you is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.
The personal data concerning you were collected in relation to services offered by the information society in accordance with Art. 8 para. 1 GDPR.
9.5 Right to information
If you have asserted your right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing against the controller, they are obliged to inform all recipients to whom your personal data has been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.
9.6 Right to data portability
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to the controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data has been provided, provided that
the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) GDPR and
the processing is carried out by automated means.
9.7 Right to object
You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out pursuant to Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
The controller shall no longer process the personal data concerning you unless they can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such marketing purposes; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing.
9.8 Right to withdraw the data protection consent declaration
You have the right to withdraw your data protection consent declaration at any time. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the withdrawal.
9.9 Automated decision-making in individual cases including profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing – including profiling – that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision
is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the data controller,
is authorised by Union or Member State law to which the data controller is subject, and that law provides for suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, or
is based on your explicit consent.
9.10 Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the member state of your residence, your place of work, or the location of the alleged infringement, if you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR.
The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant about the status and results of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Article 78 GDPR.
