General information and mandatory information - Without a Data Protection Officer
The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the legal data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and how we use it. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
We point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g., communication by email) may have security vulnerabilities. A complete protection of data from third-party access is not possible.
Notice about the responsible party
The responsible party for data processing on this website is: VINONIA
Steinerstrasse 15
81369 Munich
Email: hello@vinonia.app
The responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or together with others determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, or similar).
Retention period
Unless a more specific retention period is stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you make a valid request for deletion or revoke your consent for data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial retention periods); in this case, deletion will occur after the reasons no longer apply.
General information about the legal grounds for data processing on this website
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data based on Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR, if special categories of data are processed according to Article 9(1) GDPR. In the case of explicit consent for the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing also occurs based on Article 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you consented to the storage of cookies or to access information on your device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), data processing also occurs based on Section 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time. If your data is necessary for contract fulfillment or for pre-contractual measures, we process your data based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Additionally, we process your data if it is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation based on Article 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also occur based on our legitimate interest according to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Information on the specific legal bases for processing in individual cases can be found in the following sections of this privacy policy.
Notice about data transfer to third countries with insufficient data protection and to US companies that are not DPF-certified
We use tools from companies based in third countries with insufficient data protection and US-based tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these countries and processed there. We point out that no data protection level comparable to the EU's can be guaranteed in third countries with insufficient data protection.
Recipients of personal data
As part of our business activities, we work with various external parties. Sometimes, this requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only pass on personal data to external parties if it is necessary for the fulfillment of a contract, if we are legally obligated to do so (e.g., transferring data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR in passing on the data, or if another legal basis permits the data transfer. When using processors, we only share personal data with them based on a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement will be concluded.
Withdrawal of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can withdraw any consent you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Right to object to data collection in special cases and against direct advertising (Article 21 GDPR)
If data processing is carried out based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The specific legal basis for which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms or the processing serves to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims (objection under Article 21(1) GDPR). If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection under Article 21(2) GDPR).
Right to complain to the competent supervisory authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, affected individuals have the right to file a complaint with a supervisory authority, especially in the member state of their habitual residence, workplace, or place of the alleged violation. The right to file a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to data portability
You have the right to receive data that we process based on your consent or in the performance of a contract in an automated format and to transfer it to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.
Right to information, correction, and deletion
You have the right to receive free information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and the purpose of data processing at any time. You may also request the correction or deletion of this data as necessary. You can contact us anytime for further questions regarding personal data.
Right to restrict processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:
- If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we generally need time to verify this. During the verification period, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.
- If the processing of your personal data was unlawful, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the assertion, defense, or exercise of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of processing instead of deletion. If you have filed an objection under Article 21(1) GDPR, a balance between your and our interests must be made. As long as it is not clear whose interests outweigh, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, those data can only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of public interest of the European Union or a member state.
SSL or TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries you send to us as the website operator, we use SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the change in the browser address bar from "http://" to "https://" and the lock symbol in your browser bar. When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Cookies
Our websites use so-called "cookies." Cookies are small data packages and do not harm your device. They are either temporarily stored for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (persistent cookies) on your device. Session cookies are automatically deleted after you finish your visit. Persistent cookies remain on your device until you delete them or your web browser deletes them automatically. Cookies may come from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of specific services from third parties within websites (e.g., cookies for payment services). Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., shopping cart functions or video display). Other cookies may be used for analyzing user behavior or for advertising purposes.
Cookies necessary for the electronic communication process, to provide specific functions you desire (e.g., shopping cart functions), or to optimize the website (e.g., cookies for measuring website traffic) are stored based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is provided. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent for the storage of cookies and similar recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively based on this consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG); consent can be withdrawn at any time.
You can configure your browser to be informed about cookie placement and allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, exclude acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Deactivating cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Consent with ConsentManager
Our website uses ConsentManager's consent technology to obtain your consent for storing certain cookies on your device or using specific technologies, and to document this in accordance with data protection laws. The provider of this technology is Jaohawi AB, Håltegelvägen 1b, 72348 Västerås, Sweden, website: https://www.consentmanager.de (hereinafter "ConsentManager").
When you enter our website, a connection to ConsentManager's servers is established to obtain your consent and other declarations regarding cookie use. ConsentManager then stores a cookie in your browser to associate the consents or their withdrawal. The data collected this way will be stored until you request its deletion, delete the ConsentManager provider cookie yourself, or the purpose of data storage no longer applies. Mandatory legal storage obligations remain unaffected.
Order processing
We have entered into an order processing agreement (AVV) for the use of the aforementioned service. This legally required contract ensures that the personal data of our website visitors is only processed according to our instructions and in compliance with GDPR.

- Time of server request
- IP address
These data will not be merged with other data sources.
Data collection is carried out based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free display and optimization of the website – for this, server log files must be collected.
Inquiry by email, phone, or fax
If you contact us by email, phone, or fax, your inquiry, including any personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed for the purpose of processing your request. We will not share this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or the performance of pre-contractual measures.

However, Google Tag Manager does collect your IP address, which may be transferred to Google's parent company in the United States.
The use of Google Tag Manager is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in quickly and easily integrating and managing various tools on their website. If consent has been requested, processing will be carried out exclusively based on Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG, to the extent that consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) under TTDSG.

Google Analytics
This website uses the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyze the behavior of website visitors. The website operator receives various usage data such as page views, duration of stay, operating systems used, and the origin of the user. These data are assigned to the user's end device. No assignment to a user ID is made.
Furthermore, with Google Analytics, we can record your mouse and scroll movements and clicks. Google Analytics also uses various modeling approaches to supplement the captured data and employs machine learning technologies in data analysis.
Google Analytics uses technologies that enable the recognition of users for the purpose of analyzing user behavior (e.g., cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about your use of this website is generally transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
The use of this service is based on your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.
Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. For details, see here:

Google Analytics IP anonymization is activated. This means that your IP address will be truncated by Google within EU member states or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transferred to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activities, and provide other services related to website use and internet use to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
