Data Protection

  • PKE places the highest value on data protection

Protecting your privacy when processing personal data and the security of all business data is an important concern for us, which we consider in our business processes. We process personal data collected during your visit to our online offerings confidentially and only in accordance with legal regulations.

Data protection is an important part of our corporate policy.

  • Collection, processing, and use of personal data

Personal data are all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, such as names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, contract, booking, and billing data, which are an expression of a person's identity.

  • Processing of data due to your website visit

Each time you access our website, your computer (device) transmits the following information in particular, to enable you to visit the website:

      • IP address
      • Date and time of the request
      • Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
      • Content of the request (specific page)
      • Access status/HTTP status code
      • Amount of data transferred each time
      • Website from which the request comes
      • Browser and browser settings
      • Operating system and its interface
      • Language and version of the browser software

Personal data (name, address, email address, etc.) that you voluntarily provide to us, e.g., by contacting us via email or sending us application documents, are stored by us for the purpose of providing the associated services (e.g., sending information, application management) and for the duration of the usage relationship, unless a longer storage period is required for fulfilling a contractual obligation or for asserting or defending legal claims.

You can revoke your consent at any time without giving reasons, please contact us at: datenschutz@pke.at

  • Children

This online offering is not directed at children under 14 years of age.

  • Processing for contract fulfillment or pre-contractual measures

The personal data you provide are processed as necessary for contract fulfillment or for carrying out pre-contractual measures. Without this data, we cannot conclude or execute the contract with you.

  • Processing in the legitimate interest of PKE

The personal data you provide, including application documents, may be shared with one or more subsidiaries of the PKE Group in the legitimate interest, if necessary.

  • Transfer of data to other controllers

Your personal data will only be transferred to other controllers if this is necessary for contract fulfillment, we or the third party have a legitimate interest in the transfer, or you have given your consent. Details on the legal basis can be found in the section Processing Purposes and Legal Basis. Third parties may also be other companies of the PKE Group. If data is transferred to third parties based on a legitimate interest, this will be explained in these data protection notices.

Furthermore, data may be transferred to other controllers if we are legally obliged to do so or by enforceable official or court order.

  • Service providers/processors

We commission external service providers/processors with tasks such as contract management, payment processing, programming, data hosting, legal matters, and telephone services. We have carefully selected these service providers/processors and monitor them regularly, particularly their careful handling and securing of the data stored with them. All service providers/processors are obliged by us to maintain confidentiality and comply with legal requirements. Service providers/processors may also be other companies of the PKE Group.

  • Transfer to recipients outside the European Economic Area

We may also transfer personal data to recipients located outside the EEA in so-called third countries. In this case, we ensure before the transfer that the recipient either has an adequate level of data protection (e.g., due to an adequacy decision by the EU Commission for the respective country or the agreement of so-called EU standard contractual clauses of the European Union with the recipient) or your consent to the transfer is present.

You can obtain an overview of the recipients in third countries from us. Please use the information in the Contact section for this.

  • Duration of storage and retention periods

We generally store your data as long as it is necessary for providing our online offering and the associated services or we have a legitimate interest in further storage (e.g., we may still have a legitimate interest in postal marketing even after fulfilling a contract). In all other cases, we delete your personal data, except for data that we must continue to store to fulfill legal obligations (e.g., we are obliged by tax and commercial law retention periods to retain documents such as contracts and invoices for a certain period).

  • Web analysis

We need statistical information about the use of our online offering to make it more user-friendly, perform reach measurements, and conduct market research.


PKE uses the open-source software tool "Matomo" for web analysis purposes. The service provider responsible for processing is "InnoCraft Ltd, 7 Waterloo Quay PO625,6140 Wellington, New Zealand". The privacy policy of "Matomo" can be found at: https://matomo.org/privacy-policy/.
PKE uses the analysis service to collect information about website usage and for statistical purposes. The use of "Matomo" is entirely without the use of cookies ("cookie-less tracking") and with fully anonymized browser data. Personal data is therefore not processed by Matomo.

  • Security

Our employees and the service companies commissioned by us are obliged to maintain confidentiality and comply with the provisions of applicable data protection laws.

We take all necessary technical and organizational measures to ensure an adequate level of protection and to protect your data managed by us, in particular against the risks of accidental or unlawful destruction, manipulation, loss, alteration, or unauthorized disclosure or access. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.

  • User rights

  • Right to rectification and deletion

You can request the correction of incorrect data from us and, if the legal requirements are met, the deletion of your data.

This does not apply to data required for billing and accounting purposes or subject to a legal retention obligation. If access to such data is not required, their processing will be restricted (see the following point).

  • Restriction of processing

You can request us to restrict the processing of your data if the legal requirements are met.

  • Objection to data processing

You also have the right to object to the processing of your data by us at any time. We will then stop processing your data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for further processing that outweigh your rights, in accordance with legal requirements.

  • Objection to data processing based on "legitimate interest"

You also have the right to object to the processing of your data by us at any time, as far as this is based on the legal basis of legitimate interest. We will then stop processing your data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for further processing that outweigh your rights, in accordance with legal requirements.

  • Revocation of consent

If you have given us consent to process your data, you can revoke this at any time. The legality of processing your data until the revocation remains unaffected.
