Use of Trustcaptcha on our website

We use the Trustcaptcha captcha tool (www.trustcaptcha.com) on our website to protect us and our online services from unwanted, automated access. Trustcaptcha is a service provided by Trustcaptcha GmbH, Hans-Böckler-Straße 32, 80995 Munich, Germany. This enables us to differentiate human interactions from abusive use (for example by bots) in a data protection-friendly manner and to protect ourselves from spam.

As part of this check, Trustcaptcha may collect and process various information, including but not limited to IP addresses, browser and device information and depending on the request, other user-related data such as mouse and keyboard behaviour or touches on touch devices and, if applicable, a technically necessary cookie. Trustcaptcha automatically deletes or makes personal data anonymous within 30 days.. The sole purpose of collecting this data is to distinguish between human and automated behaviour. Trustcaptcha also uses a proof-of-work procedure. Your device is given a calculation task that is then solved by your device without any action on your part. This procedure enables us to prevent attacks on our systems without affecting your privacy. The legal basis for the use and data processing of Trustcaptcha on our website is our legitimate interest in the security of our website and protection against automated access, spam and other forms of automated misuse, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

By using our website and interacting with the functions of Trustcaptcha, you consent to the processing of your data as described in this privacy policy.
