Data protection

The operators of these sites take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We handle your personal data confidentially and in accordance with data protection laws and this privacy policy. When using this website, various personal data will be collected, including data that personally identifies you. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and how we use it, as well as the methods and purposes for such collection.

Please note that the transmission of data over the Internet (e.g., in communication via email) may have security vulnerabilities. Complete data protection against access by third parties is not possible.

   Email: hello@mynoa.com

The data controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or in partnership with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (such as names, email addresses, etc.).

Numerous data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent that has already been given at any time. An informal message by email is sufficient for the revocation. The revocation does not affect the lawfulness of the data processing carried out until the revocation.

Cancellation of consent to data processing

Based on Article 6(1) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation, including profiling based on these provisions. The relevant legal basis for the processing can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will stop processing your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or if the processing is for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR).

If your personal data is processed using direct email, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purposes of such advertising, including profiling if it is related to such direct email.

The right to object to the collection of data in special cases and direct e-mails (Article 21 GDPR).

The right to appeal to the competent supervisory authority

In case of violations of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the individuals concerned have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority, especially in the Member State where they have their habitual residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint does not prejudice any other administrative or judicial remedies.

You have the right to receive the data that we process based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract automatically, either by yourself or by a third party, in a standard, machine-readable format. If technically feasible, this data will be transferred directly to another responsible entity of your choice.

The right to data portability

Our website uses Google AdWords and conversion tracking, a service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 (hereinafter referred to as "Google"). With certification in accordance with the EU-US Privacy Shield: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active, Google ensures that it complies with EU data protection regulations when processing data in the United States.

We use conversion tracking for targeted promotion of our website. The legal basis is Article 6(1) GDPR, and our legitimate interest lies in the analysis, optimization, and economic operation of our website. If you click on a Google ad, the conversion tracking we use stores a cookie on your device. These so-called conversion cookies expire after 30 days and do not identify you otherwise. If the cookie is still valid and you visit a specific page of our website, both we and Google can evaluate that you clicked on one of our ads published on Google and were then redirected to our website.

Google uses the data collected through conversion tracking to assess visits to our website and the actions visitors take. In addition, we receive information about the number of users who clicked on our ad(s) and the pages on our site that were subsequently visited. With this conversion tracking, neither we nor any third party using Google AdWords can identify you. You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies through appropriate settings in your browser. Similarly, you can delete already stored cookies using your browser.

The necessary steps and measures vary depending on the browser you are using. If you have any questions, use the help function or consult the documentation for your browser or contact its manufacturer.

Additionally, Google provides further information about its data protection practices at:

- https://services.google.com/sitestats/en.html
- http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/
- http://www.google.de/policies/privacy/

Especially, information on how you can prevent the use of your data.

On our website, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 (hereinafter referred to as "Google"). With certification in accordance with the EU-US Privacy Shield: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active, Google ensures that it complies with EU data protection regulations when processing data in the United States. The Google Analytics service is used to analyze the usage of our website. The legal basis is Article 6(1) GDPR, and our legitimate interest lies in the analysis, optimization, and economic operation of our website.

Usage and user data, such as IP address, location, time, or frequency of your visits to our website, will be transmitted to Google's server in the United States and stored there. However, we use Google Analytics with the so-called anonymization function, where Google shortens the IP address within the EU or EEA before it is sent to the United States. Google uses the collected data to evaluate visits to our website and actions taken by visitors. This data can also be used to provide other services related to the use of our website and the internet in general.

Google states that your IP address will not be associated with other data. Additionally, Google provides further information about its data protection practices at https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/partners, including options to prevent the use of your data. Furthermore, Google offers an opt-out add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en and additional information. This add-on can be installed in the most popular browsers and provides you with further control over the data Google collects when visiting our website. The add-on informs the Google Analytics JavaScript service (ga.js) that no information about the website visit should be transmitted to Google Analytics. However, this does not prevent the transmission of information to us or other web analytics services we may use, as detailed in this document.

LinkedIn features are integrated on our pages. These features are provided by LinkedIn, 1000 W Maude Ave, Sunnyvale, California, United States.

This allows LinkedIn to associate your visit to our pages with your user account.

The use of the LinkedIn plugin is based on Article 6(1) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in achieving the greatest possible visibility in social media. For more information, please refer to LinkedIn's privacy policy.

If you contact us by email or phone, we will store and process your request, including any resulting personal data (such as your name and request), for the purpose of handling your inquiry. Without your consent, we will not disclose this data. The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1) GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on your consent (Article 6(1) GDPR) and/or our legitimate interests (Article 6 GDPR), as we have a legitimate interest in processing requests addressed to us.

Data that you send us in contact requests will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent for storage, or the purpose of data storage is no longer applicable (e.g., after fulfilling your request). Mandatory statutory provisions, especially those regarding statutory retention periods, remain unaffected.

If you send inquiries via the contact form or application form, your data from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored for the purpose of processing the request and in case of follow-up questions. Without your consent, this data will not be disclosed.

The processing of data entered into the contact form is based exclusively on your consent (Article 6 GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal email message is sufficient for the revocation. The revocation does not affect the legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation.

Data submitted through the contact form will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent for storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after processing your request). Mandatory legal provisions – especially retention periods – remain unaffected.

For technical reasons, the following data, which your web browser sends to us or our server provider, will be collected, especially to ensure a secure and stable website. These server log files record the type and version of your browser, operating system, the website from which you came (referrer URL), the pages on our site visited, the date and time of your visit, as well as the IP address from which you accessed our site. The collected data will be temporarily stored, but not in conjunction with other of your data.

The basis for this storage is Article 6(1) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to improve the stability, functionality, and security of our website. The data will be deleted within a maximum of seven days, unless further storage is required for evidence purposes. In this case, all or part of the data will be excluded from deletion until the investigation of the respective incident is finally resolved.
