II. Information about data processing
II.1 Information we collect about you
You can use our website qdeeptech.com without disclosing your identity. We collect and process only the data that you voluntarily give to us. This is the information you communicate with us by using the contact form on qdeeptech.com or by other direct means of communication, for example, by phone, email, instant messaging, or by sending us a hardcopy letter. The information you give us, which we will process electronically, may include your name, address, e-mail address and phone number, your employer’s name, and the content of your message if any. You may provide any further information voluntarily. We will process the information provided by you on the basis of your consent (Art 6(1)(a) GDPR). We will delete your personal data once your inquiry has been resolved or the purpose for its storage ceases to apply, provided the deletion of the same is not in breach of any statuary storage obligations or unless otherwise stipulated below.
II.2 Automatic Data Retention
With regard to each of your visits to any website nowadays, certain information is automatically created and stored. The information is sent by your internet access provider and your personal setting to us or our server provider. This information has to be collected in a restricted or infrequent matter, especially to facilitate lawless connections to our website, to ensure our website can be used comfortably, to analyse system security and stability, and to be used for further technical-administrative purposes.
This information is in the form of server logfile and consists of the following:
These logfiles are collected, temporarily stored for 30 days, and automatically deleted unless continued storage is required for evidentiary purposes, and brought to our attention within these 30 days. In this case, all or part of the data will be excluded from deletion until the relevant incident investigation is resolved.
III. Storage and transfer of your personal data
Any personal data you electronically submit to us on this website through the contact form, such as your name, address, e-mail address, phone number, and employer’s name, get stored securely along with the respective submission times and IP address. We do not transfer your personal data to third parties unless you have explicitly consented to such a transfer or we are entitled or obligated to do so, for example, based on Art. 6 of the GDPR or under the laws of an EU or EEA member state.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our website, and any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to help prevent unauthorised access.
If you send us personal data via email – and thus not via this website – we cannot guarantee any safe transmission or protection of your data.
Unless otherwise stated, we delete your personal data as soon as it is no longer strictly necessary for the provision of our services and products. We may be required by law to store specific data even after the original purpose has ceased to exist, for example, for accounting purposes.
IV. Cookies
Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our website. QDeepTech cares about your privacy and therefore uses borlabs-cookies (provided by Borlabs GmbH ( Rübenkamp 32 22305 Hamburg, Germany)) that are compliant with GDPR and ePrivacy. For more information about borlabs- cookies and their privacy policy, please visit Borlabs’ website https://borlabs.io/.
IV. 1 What are Cookies?
A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that are automatically put into the cookie folder, which is like the “brain” of your browser. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer’s hard drive. Cookies save certain parts of your user data, such as, e.g., language or personal page settings. When you re-open our website, your browser submits this “user-specific” information back to our site. Thanks to cookies, our website knows who you are and offers you the settings you are familiar with.
There are both first-party cookies and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are created directly by our site by using the borlabs-cookies that are compliant with GDPR and ePrivacy. In contrast, third-party cookies are created by other Plugins ( see Section V. Plugins in this Privacy Policy ). The expiration time of a cookie also varies – it can be a few minutes or up to a few years. Cookies are not software programs and contain no computer viruses, trojans, or any other malware. Cookies also cannot access your PC’s information.
The Expiration time of borlabs-cookies is one year.
IV. 2 Cookies we use
You can decide how you use cookies by changing the settings on your browser. You always have the option to delete cookies that have already been stored, deactivate, or partially allow them. Therefore you can, for example, block the cookies of third parties but allow any other cookies. However, the steps and measures required vary, depending on your browser ( Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge). If you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, not all of the functions on our site may be entirely usable.
IV. 3 Changes to Our Cookie Policy
Any changes we make to our cookie policy in the future will be posted on this page and, where appropriate, notified to you by e-mail. Please check back frequently for any updates or changes to our cookie policy.

V. 1 Google Fonts
We use Google Fonts to display external fonts on our website. This service is provided by Google Inc., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter: Google).
Through certification according to the EU-US Privacy Shield https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active, Google guarantees that it will follow the EU’s data protection regulations when processing data in the United States.
Google Fonts (previously Google Web Fonts) is a list of over 800 fonts which href=”https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google?tid=111678351”>Google LLC provides its users for free. Many of these fonts have been published under the SIL Open Font License license, while others have been published under the Apache license. Both are free software licenses.
You can read more about what data is collected by Google and what this data is used for at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
V. 2 Google Analytics
Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service from Google Inc., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Irland (hereinafter: Google).
Through certification according to the EU-US Privacy Shield https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active, Google guarantees that it will follow the EU’s data protection regulations when processing data in the United States.
Google Analytics uses so-called cookies and text files stored on your computer and allows analysing of how you use and interact with our website. However, we use Google Analytics with the so-called anonymisation function, whereby Google truncates the IP address within the EU or the EEA before it is transferred and stored on a Google server in the US. Additionally, Google may transfer this information to third parties if it is legally required or if third parties process these data on request of Google. Google will not, in any case, establish a combination between your IP address and other data from Google.
You can object to the use of your data through Google by installing a so-called add-on in your browser. This add-on can be installed on the most popular browsers and offers you further control over the data that Google collects when you visit our website. The add-on informs Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js) that no information about the website visit should be transmitted to Google Analytics. Follow this link to the plugin on a Google site: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
V. 3 Google ReCAPTCHA v3
Our website uses Google ReCAPTCHA v3, a free service from Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) that helps protect our websites from spam and abuse.
Through certification according to the EU-US Privacy Shield https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active, Google guarantees that it will follow the EU’s data protection regulations when processing data in the United States.
How exactly this works and, above all, what data is used for this purpose is explained in this section of our Privacy Policy.
V. 3.1 What is a “ReCAPTCHA”?
ReCAPTCHA is an acronym from Google for the service of “CAPTCHAs” that helps protect websites from spam and misuse while a user navigates the website. By spam, we mean any unsolicited information sent to us electronically. A “CAPTCHA” ( “Complete Automated Public Turing tests to tell Computers and Humans Apart”) is a tool used to distinguish between real and automated users, such as bots. CAPTCHAs pose tasks that are difficult for computers but relatively easy for humans to solve, for example, recognising stretched letters or numbers or clicking in a specific area on an image. Adding reCAPTCHA to our website can block automated software while helping our welcome users enter easily.
V. 3.2 What is ReCAPTCHA v3?
ReCAPTCHA v3 helps to detect fraudulent traffic coming to our website without user interaction. Instead of displaying a CAPTCHA prompt to the user, reCAPTCHA v3 returns a score (or “risk scores”), so we can choose the most appropriate action/solution for our website. Information about the ReCAPTCHA v3. can be found at https://www.google.com/recaptcha/about/.
ReCAPTCHA v3 ( Documentation can be found at https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/v3 ) works by implementing an algorithm to analyse a user’s activity by taking a screenshot of the user’s browser window. If the action is deemed mechanical or a made-up word is used, the system flags the activity. This means that ReCAPTCHA v3. can model a user’s interaction with a website so well that it no longer needs to ask the users to check a box or solve a puzzle. It assesses each visitor with a risk score ranging from 0.0 (bad) to 1.0 (good) and returns that score to the site owner to decide how to respond. This risk analysis runs in the background, and the system closely monitors user behaviour. Google does not explain the score, but humans should achieve a score of 1.0 or close to it to proceed without being perceived as a bot and blocked. What is interesting is that the visitor does not notice any of this. This is because the website visitor logs in as if there were no analyses. Only from the logo is it recognisable that something is still happening in the background.
Suppose the user’s score falls below 0.7. In that case, the website can block or restrict access to certain parts of pages or require additional verification (e.g., in the form of two-factor authentication) by implementing an “action” tag on the pages. With this procedure and through restricted access, misuse and spam by bots are reduced to a minimum.
V. 3.3 Data saved by ReCAPTCHA
By inserting reCAPTCHA, data is transferred from you to the Google server. Without receiving confirmation from Google, it can be assumed that data such as mouse interaction, time spent on the website, or language settings are stored on Google’s European or American servers. Where exactly this data is stored needs to be clearly shown by Google. The IP address your browser transmits to Google is generally not concatenated with other Google data from other Google services. However, the data will be concatenated if you are signed in to your Google Account while using the reCAPTCHA plug-in. Google’s deviating data protection regulations apply to this.
Activity and user information reCAPTCHA collects and analyses, includes the following:
V. 3.4 How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?
Suppose you do not want any data about you or your behaviour to be transmitted to Google. In that case, you must log off completely from Google and delete all Google cookies before you visit our website or use reCAPTCHA software. In principle, the data is automatically transmitted to Google as soon as you access our website. To delete this data again, you must contact Google support at https://support.google.com. By using our website, you agree that Google LLC and its agents automatically collect, process, and use data. You can learn more about reCAPTCHA on Google’s web developer page at developers.google.com/recaptcha/. Google goes into more detail about the technical development of the reCAPTCHA here, but exact information about data storage and data protection-relevant topics is not found. A good overview of the basic use of data at Google can be found in the company’s privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
The data Google stores for a day or a year cannot be easily deleted. In order to clear the data ahead of time, you must contact Google’s support at https://support.google.com/?hl=en-GB&tid=111678351. Upon opening the page, this data is automatically transmitted to Google. The only way for you to prevent the retention of your data is by not visiting our website.
