3. Hosting and server log files

When you access our website, our hosting provider automatically collects and stores information that your browser transmits, in server log files. This includes the browser type and version, the operating system, the referrer URL, the requested page, the date and time of access, and the IP address in abbreviated form. This data is not merged with other data sources.

Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the secure, stable and functional provision of our website. Log files are stored for a limited period (as a rule up to 90 days) and then deleted, unless they are required as evidence in the event of a security incident.

4. Cookies and consent management

Our website uses cookies and comparable technologies (e.g. local storage). Strictly necessary cookies that are required to operate the website are used on the basis of our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). All other cookies — in particular analytics and marketing cookies — are only set with your prior consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).

We manage these consents using the consent management platform CookieYes. When you first visit the website, CookieYes displays a banner in which you can accept or decline the individual categories. You can change or withdraw your selection at any time with effect for the future via the consent settings on the website. CookieYes stores your consent decision so that it can be honoured on future visits.

5. Web analytics — Google Analytics 4

Subject to your consent, we use Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to analyse how visitors use our website (e.g. pages viewed, approximate region, device and browser information). IP addresses are truncated/anonymised. We use this information to understand and improve the use of our website.

Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent), which you give via our CookieYes banner and can withdraw at any time. Google may process data in the United States; such transfers are safeguarded by Google’s certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and, as a fallback, the EU standard contractual clauses. Google’s privacy policy is available here.

6. Newsletter

You can subscribe to our newsletter to receive regular information about our products, offers and events. We use the double opt-in procedure: after registering, you receive a confirmation email and are only added to the distribution list once you confirm. We process the email address you provide and the confirmation metadata.

To send our newsletter we use Mailchimp, a service of Intuit Inc. (Rocket Science Group LLC), USA. Mailchimp processes the subscriber data on our behalf and also helps us analyse newsletter performance (e.g. whether an email was opened). Data may be processed in the United States, safeguarded by Mailchimp’s certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and the EU standard contractual clauses.

Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent). You can unsubscribe and thereby withdraw your consent at any time, for example via the unsubscribe link in every newsletter. The Mailchimp privacy notice is available here.

7. Contacting us

If you contact us by email or via a contact form, we process the data you provide (e.g. name, email address, message content) in order to handle your request. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where your request relates to a contract or pre-contractual measures, otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries). We delete this data once your request has been dealt with and no statutory retention obligations apply.

8. Job applications

If you apply for a position with us, we process the data contained in your application (e.g. contact details, CV, references) for the purpose of the application procedure. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR in conjunction with Section 26 BDSG. If we do not enter into an employment relationship with you, your application documents are erased at the latest six months after we notify you of our decision, unless a longer retention period is justified (e.g. to defend against claims under the German General Equal Treatment Act, AGG), or you have consented to longer storage in our talent pool.

9. Embedded third-party content — YouTube

On some pages (in particular blog posts) we embed videos from YouTube, a service of Google Ireland Limited. We use YouTube’s extended data protection mode where available. When you play an embedded video, YouTube receives the information that you have accessed the relevant page and may process data as described in Google’s privacy policy. Where this involves cookies or comparable technologies that are not strictly necessary, we load such content only with your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Google’s privacy policy is available here.

10. Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the following rights in relation to your personal data:

  • the right of access (Art. 15 GDPR);
  • the right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR);
  • the right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR);
  • the right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR);
  • the right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR);
  • the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 21 GDPR); and
  • the right to withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future, where processing is based on your consent (Art. 7(3) GDPR).

To exercise these rights, please contact privacy@livelyapps.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. The authority competent for us is the Bayerisches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht (BayLDA).

11. International data transfers

Some of the service providers we use are located in, or process data in, third countries (in particular the United States). In such cases we ensure an adequate level of protection through appropriate safeguards, in particular the service provider’s certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/1795) and/or the EU standard contractual clauses (Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914).

12. Automated decision-making

We do not use automated decision-making, including profiling, that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you (Art. 22 GDPR).

13. Version and amendments

This Privacy Policy is current as of July 2026. We may amend it to reflect changes to our services or to legal requirements. The current version is always available on this page.
