When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.
We would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g., when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. A complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
The responsible entity (controller) for data processing on this website is:
Ruslan Julbarissow
Sömmeringstr. 71
50823 Cologne
Germany
E-Mail: info@mikaro.de
The responsible entity is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, e-mail addresses, etc.).
Unless a specific storage period has been specified in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial retention periods); in the latter case, the deletion will take place after these reasons cease to apply.
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, provided that special categories of data are processed according to Art. 9(1) GDPR. In the event of express consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access to information in your end device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), data processing is additionally based on § 25(1) TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time. If your data is required for contract fulfillment or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data if this is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest according to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Information on the relevant legal basis in each individual case is provided in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.
As part of our business activities, we work with various external bodies. In some cases, this also requires the transfer of personal data to these external bodies. We only pass on personal data to external bodies if this is necessary for the fulfillment of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., passing on data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in passing it on pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the transfer of data. When using processors, we only pass on personal data of our customers on the basis of a valid contract on data processing. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke an already given consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
IF THE DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ASSERTION, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(1) GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT ADVERTISING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH ADVERTISING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING INSOFAR AS IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT ADVERTISING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT ADVERTISING (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(2) GDPR).
In the event of violations of the GDPR, those affected have a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged violation. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data at any time. You can contact us at any time regarding this and other questions on the subject of personal data.
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data – apart from its storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from „http://“ to „https://“ and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
We use Plausible Analytics for the statistical evaluation and continuous optimization of our website.
We operate Plausible Analytics self-hosted on our own servers. We have configured the tool to be extremely data protection-friendly, which is why in most cases it does not require an active user consent (cookie banner).
The data collected (e.g., website traffic, top pages, referrers, device types) is purely statistical and only serves to analyze the usage of our website in an aggregated and anonymized form.
The processing is based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR in the statistical analysis and continuous improvement of our website, as the processing is carried out in a strictly pseudonymized/anonymized and data protection-friendly manner, and we have refrained from using cookies.
You have the right to object to this statistical data collection at any time in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR.
We offer a function on our website that allows you to generate images using Artificial Intelligence (AI). You can either upload your own image files or select images provided by us as a basis.
To provide this function, we process the image files you upload or select, as well as any text prompts or parameters you enter. This data is transmitted to the Google's Vertex AI API to generate the desired result.
The generated images are temporarily stored on our servers to enable you to download the result. This image is automatically deleted after 24 hours. We do not use your data to train the AI models of the provider.
For the technical generation of the images, we use the "Vertex AI" service from Google. The provider is Google Cloud EMEA Limited, 70 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay, Dublin 2, Ireland.
We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) with Google to ensure that your data is processed only according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR. Although Google Cloud EMEA Limited is located in Ireland, it cannot be ruled out that data may be transferred to Google servers in the USA. Google is certified under the „EU-US Data Privacy Framework“ (DPF), which guarantees compliance with European data protection standards.
Further information on data processing by Google Cloud can be found here: https://cloud.google.com/privacy/gdpr.
The processing of your data for the purpose of image generation is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of a contract), as the use of the tool is a service requested by you. If special categories of personal data (e.g., photos of people) are uploaded, processing is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, which you grant by proactively uploading the file.
We do not use active social media plugins (e.g., "Like" buttons that automatically transfer data) on this website. Instead, we use simple links (so-called share or profile links) to the social networks mentioned below.
When you visit our website, no personal data is forwarded to the social media providers. A connection to the servers of the social networks is only established when you actively click on one of the buttons or links. By clicking the link, you leave our website and are redirected to the website of the respective provider. Only then will the provider receive information about your visit (e.g., your IP address and the page you came from).
We have no influence on the data collected and processing procedures of the social networks once you have left our website. For information on the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the providers, as well as your rights and options for protecting your privacy, please refer to the privacy policies of the respective providers:
