Data Protection Policy
Eleveight (or “we” or “us”) respects the privacy of all of our user, visitor and subscriber and promise to provide you with the best online experience possible. This privacy policy tells you what information we collect from you, how we may use it and the steps we take to ensure that it is protected. We handle your personal data confidentially and corresponding to the legal data protection regulations as well as this data protection policy.
The usage of our website is generally possible without giving personal data. As far as personal data is collected on our website (for example name, address or email address) this only will be executed on a voluntary basis, as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your explicit consent.
We point out that the data transmission on the internet (for example the communication by mail) may have security gaps. A complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of personal data and other confidential contents (for example, inquiries to the person responsible), this website uses an SSL resp. TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the string “https: //” and the lock icon in your browser bar.
Information We Collect
There are cases where Eleveight may ask for personal information, such as your name, address, date of birth, gender and email address. We do this, for instance, when you register for events and promotions, responding to communications through email, and for services that require registration or subscription. We might also collect personal information from you about a third party. This information will only be used for its specific purpose (delivering the content you have nominated you’d like to share) and Eleveight will not further contact the third party unless the third party contacts us.
In the case of merely informative use of our website, ie if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information, we only collect data that your browser transmits to our server (so-called “server log files”).
