2. Hosting and technical provision
Our website is hosted by IONOS SE, Elgendorfer Straße 57, 56410 Montabaur, Germany. To deliver pages, the server processes your IP address and technical request data. This is necessary to transfer the requested content to your browser.
According to the provider, IONOS web hosting processes access logs containing requested pages or files, referrer, browser type and version, operating system, device type and access time. IP addresses are anonymised in the visitor data described there. IONOS states a retention period of eight weeks for this visitor data and processing within the EU. Technical data supports secure and stable website operation. The legal basis for the necessary processing of personal data is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest is the reliable and secure provision of our website.

3. Contact, quotation requests and contract performance
For enquiries by email, telephone or enquiry form, we process the information provided to respond, prepare quotations and, where applicable, perform contracts. This includes name, email address, phone number, message content and project details such as location, equipment quantities and hire period. Contracts may additionally involve billing and delivery addresses, payment data and contract data.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR where processing is necessary for a contract with you or pre-contractual steps at your request. For other enquiries, particularly communications with business contacts, we rely on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is proper handling of business matters. Statutory retention is based on Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.
The quotation form currently requires name, email address, phone number and project description. Alternatively, contact us by email or telephone. Providing personal data is not generally required by law; however, without the information necessary for a particular enquiry or contract, we cannot process it.
4. Email service and recipients
Email service providers are used to process messages. The enquiry form sends your information server-side by email to a Gmail mailbox we use. Google receives the contact and project information in the enquiry and associated email connection data. Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, is generally responsible for Google services in the European Economic Area. Processing by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, is possible.
Our processing serves the purposes in section 3 and relies on the legal bases stated there. Google explains its own processing in its privacy information. Google states that transfers to certified US companies rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework under the adequacy decision pursuant to Article 45 GDPR and, where necessary, further safeguards such as standard contractual clauses. Information about these mechanisms and obtaining copies of safeguards is available in Google's data transfer frameworks.
We send marketing emails only with prior consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or within the legally permitted framework for marketing our own similar offers to existing customers under section 7(3) UWG in conjunction with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. In the latter case, our legitimate interest is informing customers about our own similar services. You may withdraw consent or object to direct marketing at any time, for example by emailing sale@zaun-rent.de. No costs arise other than transmission costs at basic rates. We will then stop using your address for advertising. Where necessary, we retain an objection record to respect your choice; the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR and our legitimate interest is continued compliance with your objection. An enquiry or quotation request is not marketing consent.
Other recipients, where needed for the relevant transaction, include contracted transport or installation providers, banks for transfers, tax or legal advisers, and authorities where legally required. Only data necessary for the purpose is disclosed. Your contact details are not sold.
5. Price calculator
The calculator processes the entered fence length and hire duration in your device's browser. The calculation function does not send these inputs to us or store them in a customer profile. We receive information only when you separately contact us and submit it.
6. Cookies, fonts and visitor statistics
The website's own application code sets no analytics or advertising cookies and uses neither Local Storage nor Session Storage for profiling. Text uses system fonts; icon fonts and other design resources load from our own web space. No Google fonts are loaded externally. Google Maps, Google Analytics, advertising pixels and embedded Instagram plugins are not integrated.
IONOS also describes visitor statistics based on anonymised access data for its hosting. The data categories and retention periods stated by the provider appear in section 2. This website does not carry out its own personally identifiable analysis of usage behaviour or combine it with enquiry data.
7. External links
Our website links to Instagram and information from other providers. These are ordinary links. The relevant website is called up, and its provider receives technically transmitted data, only when you open such a link. The provider's privacy information governs processing there.
8. Retention periods
We delete personal enquiry data once the matter is fully resolved and no contractual or legal grounds require further storage. For contract data, retention depends on the contract period, performance and applicable statutory retention periods. The document type and statutory starting dates are decisive, particularly under section 147 AO and, where applicable, section 257 HGB. These may include eight-year periods for accounting records and six-year periods for business letters. Not every message automatically falls under such a period.
Where further storage is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, we retain the required data until that purpose ceases, particularly until relevant limitation periods expire or proceedings conclude. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest is pursuing or defending legal claims. During retention required solely by law, use is restricted to that purpose. Hosting visitor data follows the period in section 2.
9. Your rights
Subject to the respective statutory conditions, you have rights of access under Article 15 GDPR, rectification under Article 16, erasure under Article 17, restriction of processing under Article 18 and data portability under Article 20. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it at any time with future effect. Processing before withdrawal remains lawful. To exercise your rights, contact the address above.
10. Right to object
For processing based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, you may object at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation. We will then stop processing the affected data unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds overriding your interests, rights and freedoms, or processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. You may object to direct marketing at any time without giving reasons; we will then no longer process your data for that purpose.
11. Right to complain
Under Article 77 GDPR, you may complain to a data protection supervisory authority, particularly in the place of your habitual residence, workplace or the alleged infringement. For our registered location, the State Commissioner for Data Protection of Lower Saxony is particularly relevant. Contact information is available at www.lfd.niedersachsen.de.
12. Automated decisions and updates
No automated decision-making, including profiling, within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR takes place. The calculator provides non-binding guidance only and makes no decision about entering into a contract. We update this policy when our website or the services used change.
