Privacy Policy

This pri­va­cy pol­i­cy (“Pri­va­cy Pol­i­cy”) applies to Unusu­al Soft­ware GmbH. and its rel­e­vant sub­sidiaries (“Unusu­al Soft­ware,” “we,” or “us”). Unusu­al Soft­ware engages in sell­ing stan­dard Soft­ware (the “Unusu­al Suite”) to busi­ness clients. Unless oth­er­wise stat­ed, Unusu­al Soft­ware is the con­troller of the per­son­al infor­ma­tion col­lect­ed pur­suant to this state­ment.

Our Ser­vices are intend­ed for use by cor­po­rate cus­tomers. If our Ser­vices are pro­vid­ed to you through a Unusu­al Soft­ware cus­tomer, that cus­tomer is the con­troller of your per­son­al data and you should con­tact that cus­tomer with any ques­tions or requests about your per­son­al data. Unusu­al Soft­ware is not respon­si­ble for the pri­va­cy or secu­ri­ty prac­tices of our cus­tomers, which may devi­ate from this Pri­va­cy Pol­i­cy.

Def­i­n­i­tions of the terms used can be found in Art. 4 Gen­er­al Data Pro­tec­tion Reg­u­la­tion (GDPR).

 1. Scope of Appli­ca­tion 

This Pri­va­cy Pol­i­cy applies to per­son­al data for which Unusu­al Soft­ware is respon­si­ble, which (among oth­er things) may include: 

  • data col­lect­ed through the web­sites, mobile appli­ca­tions, mar­ket­places, devel­op­er por­tals, social media sites (col­lec­tive­ly, our “Dig­i­tal Prop­er­ties”) oper­at­ed by us; 
  • data col­lect­ed in a man­ner where we post a direct link to this Pri­va­cy Pol­i­cy, such as. e.g., in con­nec­tion with dig­i­tal com­mu­ni­ca­tions, paper forms, in-per­son inter­ac­tions (which may include mar­ket­ing and out­reach activ­i­ties such as sur­veys, con­tests, pro­mo­tions, sweep­stakes, con­fer­ences, webi­na­rs and events); 
  • data col­lect­ed about indi­vid­u­als who engage in busi­ness trans­ac­tions with us. 

This Pri­va­cy Pol­i­cy does not apply to data that Unusu­al Soft­ware process­es on behalf of its cus­tomers. 

 2. Amend­ments and updates 

We reserve the right to update this Pol­i­cy to reflect changes in legal, reg­u­la­to­ry, and oper­a­tional require­ments, our prac­tices, or oth­er fac­tors. Please check this Pri­va­cy State­ment for updates peri­od­i­cal­ly. If any of these changes are not accept­able to you, dis­con­tin­ue your inter­ac­tion with us. If required by applic­a­ble law, we will noti­fy you of any changes to this Pri­va­cy Pol­i­cy by post­ing an update on our web­site or by oth­er appro­pri­ate means. 

3. legal basis for the pro­cess­ing of per­son­al data 

3.1 Inso­far as we obtain the con­sent of the data sub­ject for pro­cess­ing oper­a­tions involv­ing per­son­al data, Art. 6 (1) (a) EU Gen­er­al Data Pro­tec­tion Reg­u­la­tion (GDPR) serves as the legal basis. 

3.2 When pro­cess­ing per­son­al data that is nec­es­sary for the per­for­mance of a con­tract to which the data sub­ject is a par­ty, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to pro­cess­ing oper­a­tions that are nec­es­sary for the per­for­mance of pre-con­trac­tu­al mea­sures. 

3.3 Inso­far as pro­cess­ing of per­son­al data is nec­es­sary for the ful­fill­ment of a legal oblig­a­tion to which our com­pa­ny is sub­ject, Art. 6 (1) © GDPR serves as the legal basis. 

3.4 in the event that vital inter­ests of the data sub­ject or anoth­er nat­ur­al per­son make pro­cess­ing of per­son­al data nec­es­sary, Art. 6 (1) (d) GDPR serves as the legal basis. 

3.5 If pro­cess­ing is nec­es­sary to pro­tect a legit­i­mate inter­est of our com­pa­ny or a third par­ty and if the inter­ests, fun­da­men­tal rights and free­doms of the data sub­ject do not over­ride the first-men­tioned inter­est, Art. 6 (1) f DSGVO serves as the legal basis for such pro­cess­ing. 

4. Per­son­al data types 

The types of per­son­al infor­ma­tion we col­lect may include: 

  • iden­ti­fiers, such as names, mail­ing address­es, online iden­ti­fiers, instant mes­sag­ing IDs, IP-address­es, email address­es, account or user names, phone num­bers and social media iden­ti­fiers (Twit­ter han­dle, Insta­gram name, etc.);

9. Cook­ies and track­ing tech­nolo­gies 

9.1 On the basis of Arti­cle 6 (1) (f) GDPR, we use track­ing tech­nolo­gies in order to be able to ensure the tai­lor-made con­fig­u­ra­tion and con­tin­u­ous opti­mi­sa­tion of our ser­vices. We also use track­ing mea­sures to sta­tis­ti­cal­ly record the usage of our ser­vices and to eval­u­ate them for the pur­pose of opti­mis­ing your user expe­ri­ence. These inter­ests are con­sid­ered nec­es­sary in the sense of the afore­men­tioned pro­vi­sion. 

The log­ic used for this pur­pose records the over­all user behav­iour, i.e. the behav­iour of an aver­age user of our ser­vices. The retained data pack­ets con­tain a num­ber which could the­o­ret­i­cal­ly be indi­rect­ly assigned to the email address­es of indi­vid­ual licence users, although such an assign­ment is not active­ly made by us. Data is nei­ther stored on nor retrieved from user devices and is stored exclu­sive­ly on the Unusu­al Suite data servers. 

9.2 Cook­ies are text files placed on your com­put­er to col­lect stan­dard Inter­net log infor­ma­tion and vis­i­tor behav­ior infor­ma­tion. When you vis­it our web­sites, we may col­lect infor­ma­tion from you auto­mat­i­cal­ly through cook­ies or sim­i­lar tech­nol­o­gy. 

9.3 We may use cook­ies in a range of ways to improve your expe­ri­ence on our web­site, includ­ing: 

  • Keep­ing you signed in; 
  • Under­stand­ing how you use our web­site; 

9.4 The types of cook­ies used by Uni­ver­sal Soft­ware are: 

  • Func­tion­al­i­ty – Unusu­al Soft­ware uses cook­ies so that we rec­og­nize you on our web­site and remem­ber your pre­vi­ous­ly select­ed pref­er­ences. These could include what lan­guage you pre­fer and what loca­tion you are in. A mix of first-par­ty and third-par­ty cook­ies may be used. 
  • Adver­tis­ing – Unusu­al Soft­ware uses cook­ies to col­lect infor­ma­tion about your vis­it to our web­site, the con­tent you viewed, the links you fol­lowed and infor­ma­tion about your brows­er, device, and your IP address. Unusu­al Soft­ware may some­times share some lim­it­ed aspects of this data with third par­ties for adver­tis­ing pur­pos­es. We may also share online data col­lect­ed through cook­ies with our adver­tis­ing part­ners. This means that when you vis­it anoth­er web­site, you may be shown adver­tis­ing based on your brows­ing pat­terns on our web­site. 

9.5 You can set your brows­er not to accept cook­ies. How­ev­er, in a few cas­es, some of our web­site fea­tures may not func­tion as a result. You also have the abil­i­ty to choose whether you con­sent to the use and fur­ther pro­cess­ing of data col­lect­ed through non-essen­tial cook­ies when you first vis­it the Unusu­al Soft­ware web­site. You can update your deci­sion at any time by click­ing on the “Cook­ie Set­tings” link in the bot­tom of each of our web pages.

  • pur­suant to Art. 16 GDPR, to demand with­out delay the rec­ti­fi­ca­tion of inac­cu­rate or incom­plete per­son­al data stored by us;. 
  • pur­suant to Art. 17 GDPR, to request the era­sure of your per­son­al data stored by us, unless the pro­cess­ing is nec­es­sary for exer­cis­ing the right to free­dom of expres­sion and infor­ma­tion, for com­pli­ance with a legal oblig­a­tion, for rea­sons of pub­lic inter­est or for the asser­tion, exer­cise or defense of legal claims; or alter­na­tive­ly, pur­suant to Art. 18 GDPR, to request restric­tion of the pro­cess­ing of the data; 
  • pur­suant to Art. 20 GDPR, to receive the per­son­al data and request its trans­fer to oth­er data con­trollers. 
  • Pur­suant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR, to revoke your con­sent at any time. This has the con­se­quence that we may no longer con­tin­ue the data pro­cess­ing based on this con­sent for the future; 
  • com­plain to a super­vi­so­ry author­i­ty in accor­dance with Art. 77 GDPR. As a rule, you can con­tact the super­vi­so­ry author­i­ty for this pur­pose. 

Right of objec­tion 

If your per­son­al data is processed on the basis of legit­i­mate inter­ests pur­suant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the pro­cess­ing of your per­son­al data pur­suant to Art. 21 GDPR

pro­vid­ed that there are grounds for doing so that arise from your par­tic­u­lar sit­u­a­tion or if the objec­tion is direct­ed against direct mar­ket­ing. In the lat­ter case, you have a gen­er­al right of objec­tion, which is imple­ment­ed by us with­out spec­i­fy­ing a par­tic­u­lar sit­u­a­tion. If you would like to exer­cise your right of revo­ca­tion or objec­tion, it is suf­fi­cient to send an e‑mail to dierk.droth@unusual-suite.com
