4. How to revoke your consent to cookies?

Through the interaction with the “Manage cookies”, you will see the cookies bar again, in which you only need to change your original preference to disagreement with one click (see image below).

 

 

The setting changes take effect immediately. You can also revoke your consent by making a request sent to [email protected], but this process is not immediate and automatic. We therefore recommend that you change the settings directly on the website as described above.

5. How to prevent cookies from being stored on your device?

  • If you do not give your consent through our cookie bar (in terms of applicable types of cookies), these cookies will not be stored on your device. Disabled analytics and advertisement cookies have no impact on the functionality of the website. You can delete all types of cookies at any time through the settings of your internet browser, but if you delete even the necessary cookies, some settings and functions of our website may not work optimally. 

    In relation to specific analytics and advertisement cookies of third parties, it is also possible to use the so-called opt-out mechanisms by which you prevent the use of specific third-party cookies not only in relation to our website, but in general to the use of any other websites, or in relation to specific social networks that you use and have set up your own user account. 

    Google Analytics

    By installing the add-on in your internet browser, you will prevent the storage of cookies from the Google Analytics service and, in general, not only on our website, but also on any other websites. The add-on is available here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

    Google and many other third parties involved in displaying personalized behavioural advertising on the Internet

    If you do not want to display personalized ads, you can use the initiative www.youronlinechoices.com. By controlling preferences, you can disable multiple cookies to display these ads in relation to the participating companies that use cookies. Turning them off does not mean that your ad will no longer be shown to you but will not be based on your behaviour.

    Facebook (Meta) 

    If you have your own Facebook account, you can also use the cookie management controls integrated directly into this social network, which are available here: https://www.facebook.com/settings/cookie

    At the same time, through the settings of your internet browser, it is possible to delete those cookies that are stored in your browser. Follow the information below, depending on which browser you’re using: 

    If you want to increase your protection against unauthorized monitoring of your device and behavior on the Internet through cookies (especially third parties), use the “Do Not Track” function (or Blocking third party cookies), which you can turn on according to the type of browser used according to the following instructions:

6. Do we transfer your data to third countries outside the EU / EEA?

Yes, but only in necessary and minimal extent. Some of our suppliers, which we use when using cookies, have their registered office or their other group companies are established in the United States of America, which are generally considered to be a third country which does not guarantee an adequate level of the personal data protection. In many cases, the data may not physically leave servers located in the EU, but processing due to the supplier’s location may be subject to the law of a third country. We therefore carry out these cross-border transfers only in strict accordance with the law (in particular the GDPR) and only if, in our conclusions and findings, sufficient risk mitigation measures and safeguards are taken for the protection of fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subjects, as required by the Court of Justice in Case C-311/18 (Schrems II).

7. Is the storage of cookies on my device a contractual or legal requirement and what are the consequences if I prevent their storage?

The provision of any type of cookies, which we are processing is not a legal requirement and therefore their non-provision has no negative consequences with legal significance for you. 

However, the processing of the necessary and functional cookies can be considered necessary for the provision of the digital services you are interested during visit and usage of our website. Non provision of such cookies may have certain effects on your experience and proper working of website functionalities and third party add-ons or plug-ins integrated to website. Basic website functionalities will always work but as the consequence may worse your comfort and optimal configuration of settings stemmed from your preferences and choices made in the past or in services provided by third parties. 

In the case of all other types of cookies (e.g. analytics or advertisement), their provision is exclusively voluntary and is governed by the granting or non-granting of your consent. Failure to give this consent has no negative consequences for you.

8. How do we use cookies when managing our profiles on social networks?

Simple links are also available on our website, which allow immediate connection between our website and our profile established on a social network or other platform (among others Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn). In these cases, these are not active plug-ins that would cause such data processing that would require the consent of logged-in or non-logged-in users of these social networks. 

However, in the case of interaction with icons depicting individual social networks, the social network provider may process cookies and personal data, on which we do not have to have any control and influence. SuperScale is not responsible for the use of cookies realized by the social network provider for its own purposes. For more information on the processing of cookies, it is therefore necessary to familiarize yourself with the rules of their processing published by social network providers here:

SuperScale is responsible for processing your data only to a certain extent, for example if you visit our profile, if we communicate with each other on a social network or if we target advertising on social networks. On our profiles on social networks, we may process your personal data and cookies for analytical and statistical purposes together with the relevant social network providers as so-called joint controllers within the meaning of the GDPR. Based on this fact, we are obliged to inform you about the basic parts of the agreements that we have concluded under Art. 26 GDPR:

Further information about how we use social networks for our own purposes you may find in Privacy Policy.

9. Do we use third party plug-ins, SDKs or surveillance pixels integrated in our websites??

No, we haven´t use such technologies.
