Your data is collected, firstly, when you provide it to us. This may include data that you enter in a contact form. Other data is collected automatically or, following your consent, by our IT systems when you visit the website. This primarily includes technical data, such as your internet browser, operating system or the time at which the page was accessed. This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter this website.

The controller responsible for processing personal data on this website is:
Philipp Schuch
QPM Quality Personnel Management GmbH

Telephone: 021193672490
Email: support@qpm.de
The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data, such as names or email addresses.
We use an AI-supported assistant on this website that responds to inquiries automatically. At the beginning of the conversation, we inform you that you are interacting with an AI system. The assistant’s answers are generated automatically and are not editorially reviewed before being provided. They may be incomplete, outdated or factually incorrect.
The assistant’s information is provided solely for your general information. It does not constitute legal, tax or remuneration advice, establish an advisory relationship and is not legally binding. In particular, it does not constitute an assurance of characteristics, an offer in the legal sense or binding statements regarding prices, scope of services, contractual terms or product functions. The applicable contractual agreements and information provided by our employees in text form are decisive.
We are liable for damage arising from reliance on AI-generated information only in cases of intent and gross negligence and in the event of breaches of essential contractual obligations; in the latter case, liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract. Liability under the German Product Liability Act and for injury to life, body or health remains unaffected. For binding questions, please contact our team at: support@gradar.com.
Unless a more specific storage period is stated in this Privacy Policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for which it was collected no longer applies. If you submit a justified request for erasure or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be erased unless there are other legally permissible reasons for storing it, such as statutory retention obligations under tax or commercial law. In that case, the data will be erased once those reasons no longer 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 where special categories of personal data under Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed. If you have expressly consented to the transfer of personal data to third countries, processing is also based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information on your device, for example via device fingerprinting, processing is additionally based on Section 25(1) TDDDG.
Consent may be withdrawn at any time. If your data is required to perform a contract or take pre-contractual steps, we process it on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. We also process your data where this is necessary to comply with a legal obligation on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also be based on our legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The applicable legal basis in each individual case is stated in the following sections of this Privacy Policy.
We have appointed a Data Protection Officer.

We use, among other things, tools from companies based in unsafe third countries and US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these countries. Please note that an equivalent level of data protection to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed in unsafe third countries.
We point out that the USA generally offers a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU as a safe third country. Accordingly, a transfer of data to the USA is permissible if the recipient has DPF certification or appropriate additional safeguards. Information on transfers to third countries, including the recipients, can be found in this Privacy Policy.
In the course of our business activities, we cooperate with various external parties. This may also require personal data to be transmitted to these external parties. We disclose personal data to external parties only if this is necessary to perform a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so, if we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR or if another legal basis permits the disclosure. When using processors, we disclose our customers’ personal data only on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint controllership agreement is concluded.
Many data processing operations are possible only with your express consent. You may withdraw consent that you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal remains unaffected.
If processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The relevant legal basis for processing can be found in this Privacy Policy. If you object, we will no longer process the personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to establish, exercise or defend legal claims (objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR).
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to processing for such marketing purposes; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection under Art. 21(2) GDPR).
In the event of infringements of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. This right is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract provided to you or a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will be done only where technically feasible.
Within the scope of applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain information free of charge about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing, and, where applicable, a right to rectification or erasure. You may contact us at any time with regard to this and any other questions concerning personal data.
You have the right to request restriction ofthe processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time for thispurpose. The right to restriction exists in the following cases:
If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data was or is unlawful, you may request restriction of processing instead of erasure.
If we no longer need your personal data but you require it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing instead of erasure.
If you have lodged an objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. Until it has been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may, apart from being stored, be processed only with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, 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.
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries sent to us as the website operator, this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the address line changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol in your browser. When SSL/TLS encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
The use of contact details published as part of the legal notice for sending unsolicited advertising and information material is hereby rejected. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising, for example by spam emails.

We use Cloudflare Turnstile, a service provided by Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA, on our website. Turnstile protects our website and, in particular, our forms against spam, automated inquiries and misuse. The service checks whether an input was made by a natural person or an automated programme.
For this purpose, Cloudflare processes technical information and security characteristics of the device and connection used. This may include the IP address, browser and user-agent information, TLS fingerprint, sitekey configuration, the website or origin accessed and technical information about page views and interactions. Cloudflare uses this information solely to detect and prevent automated or abusive access and not to create advertising profiles.
Processing is carried out to safeguard our legitimate interest in operating a secure and functional website and protecting our forms against spam and automated attacks, on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If Cloudflare stores information on our device or accesses information already stored, this is done only insofar as strictly necessary for technical protection against bots and spam. The specific technical implementation and use of cookies or comparable technologies are regularly reviewed.
Cloudflare processes the data partly on our behalf as a processor. Where Cloudflare processes data for its own purposes, it may act as an independent controller. Further information can be found in Cloudflare’s Turnstile privacy addendum.
Personal data may also be processed in the USA. According to its own information, Cloudflare bases international data transfers, among other things, on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, standard contractual clauses and supplementary safeguards. Further information can be found in Cloudflare’s privacy information and Trust Hub.

We use the translation widget GTranslate from GTranslate Inc., 4394 NW 120th Ave, Coral Springs, FL 33065, USA, on our website. The widget allows you to automatically translate website content by selecting a language.
When a language is selected, technical connection data, information about the device and browser used, the website accessed and the selected language may be processed. If the translation is provided via external GTranslate servers, data may be transmitted to GTranslate or service providers engaged by GTranslate. The specific processing depends on the technical configuration of the widget and GTranslate’s privacy policy.
According to our current configuration, GTranslate does not set a cookie on your device. GTranslate points out, however, that cookies or session information may be used depending on the version deployed. gtranslate The configuration used is reviewed regularly.
Processing is carried out to provide the translation function you have expressly selected. If no cookies or comparable technologies are stored on or read from your device, processing of the data required for technical communication is based on our legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR in enabling multilingual use of our website.
Personal data may also be processed in the USA. GTranslate states that information may be processed and stored in the USA and the European Union depending on use.
Please do not enter personal data into website form fields while the translation function is being used unless this is necessary. Content that is already publicly accessible on the website may be transmitted to the technical service provider as part of the translation.

We embed interactive product demos from Arcade Software, Inc. via the domain demo.arcade.software on our website. The demos allow you to explore features and processes of our products interactively.
When using an Arcade demo, technically necessary information required to deliver and display the demo may be processed. This may include the IP address, time of access, demo accessed and technical information about the browser and device used.
Arcade’s analytics and tracking functions are deactivated in our configuration. In particular, the “Do Not Track” setting is enabled. According to Arcade, when “Do Not Track” is enabled, interaction data such as clicks or views is not transmitted to Arcade. The Arcade Analytics dashboard is not populated with visitor data in this case.
We therefore do not use Arcade to create usage profiles, analyse user behaviour, create audiences or serve personalised advertising. Because the analytics functions are deactivated, no Arcade analytics cookies are used for these purposes. Arcade generally states that its analytics function may use a cookie to assign a unique identifier to users; this analytics function is deactivated in our configuration.
Personal data may also be processed in the USA. GTranslate states that information may be processed and stored in the USA and the European Union depending on use.
A connection to demo.arcade.software may already be established when an embedded product demo is loaded because the demo is loaded from external servers. Technically necessary connection data may be transmitted to Arcade. This processing serves to provide the product demo you have accessed.

We use Sentry to detect and log potential errors in third-party functions on our website. The provider is Functional Software, Inc. (“Sentry”), 45 Fremont Street, 8th Floor, San Francisco, CA 94105, USA.
In the event of an error, Sentry may process technical information, including error messages, browser and device information, operating system information, timestamps, URLs accessed, referrer URLs and information about the technical operation of the website. Depending on the configuration, technical network data and information from HTTP headers or URL parameters may also be processed.
Sentry is configured to process as little personal data as possible. In particular, no form content, access data or other sensitive information is intentionally transmitted to Sentry. Where possible, personal or sensitive data is filtered or anonymised before transmission.
To temporarily store error events when an internet connection is unavailable, Sentry may store data locally in the browser in an IndexedDB database named sentry-offline with a storage area called queue. This local storage serves solely to transmit error events to Sentry after the connection is restored. It is not a cookie. Sentry documents this function as offline caching for events.
Processing is carried out to safeguard our legitimate interest in the secure, stable and technically functional operation of our website and in detecting and rectifying technical errors, on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If consent is legally required for local storage of information on the device, processing takes place only on the basis of your consent under Section 25(1) TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future.
Personal data may also be processed in the USA. Sentry provides a Data Processing Addendum for the processing of personal data. According to Sentry, international data transfers are based, among other things, on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and standard contractual clauses. Further information on data protection at Sentry can be found at: https://sentry.io/privacy.
Further information on processing by the Sentry JavaScript SDK can be found at: https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/data-management/data-collected.

We collect, process and use customer and contract data to establish, define the content of and amend our contractual relationships. We collect, process and use personal data concerning the use of this website (usage data) only insofar as this is necessary to enable or bill the user for the use of the service. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. The customer data collected is deleted after completion of the order or termination of the business relationship and expiry of any statutory retention periods.

No further transfer takes place unless you have expressly consented to it. We do not disclose your data to third parties without express consent, for example for advertising purposes. The legal basis for processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits processing of data for performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

They also process the duration of the conference, the start and end time of participation, the number of participants and other contextual information connected with the communication process (metadata). The provider also processes all technical data required to conduct online communication, including IP addresses, MAC addresses, device IDs, device type, operating system type and version, client version, camera type, microphone or speaker and the type of connection. If content is exchanged, uploaded or otherwise provided within the tool, this content is also stored on the tool providers’ servers. This includes cloud recordings, chats or instant messages, voicemails, uploaded photos and videos, files, whiteboards and other information shared while using the service. Please note that we do not have complete control over the processing operations of the tools used. Our options are largely determined by the provider’s corporate policy. Further information on data processing by the conference tools can be found in the privacy policies of the tools used, which are listed below.
The conference tools are used to communicate with prospective or existing contractual partners or to provide certain services to our customers (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). The tools are also used to simplify and accelerate communication with us or our company in general, which constitutes a legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Where consent has been requested, the relevant tools are used on the basis of that consent; consent may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future.
