Privacy Policy

We are very pleased about your interest in our company. Data protection has a particularly high priority for the management of Convaise UG (haftungsbeschränkt) (in the following Convaise). A use of the internet pages of Convaise is generally possible without any indication of personal data. If a person concerned wishes to make use of special services or services of our company via our website, it may be necessary to process personal data. If it is necessary to process personal data and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the person concerned. The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in compliance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to Convaise. By means of this data protection notice, our company wishes to inform the public about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data collected, used and processed by us. Furthermore, this data protection notice informs affected persons about their rights. Convaise, as the data controller, has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data processed via this website is protected as completely as possible. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions may have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed.

Entity responsible for data processing:

1. Data protection officer

We have appointed a data protection officer for our company. Contact: datenschutz@convaise.com

2. Provision of the website

Collection of general data and information: The website collects a number of general data and information each time the website is accessed by a data subject or an automated system. These general data and information are stored in the log files of the server. The following can be recorded:

  • the browser types and versions used,
  • the operating system used by the accessing system,
  • the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrer),
  • the sub-websites, which are accessed via an accessing system on our website,
  • the date and time of access to the website,
  • an Internet Protocol (IP) address,
  • the Internet service provider of the accessing system
  • and other similar data and information that serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems

When using this general data and information, Convaise will not draw any conclusions about the person concerned. This information is rather required

  • to deliver the contents of our website correctly,
  • to optimise the contents of our website,
  • to guarantee the permanent functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website and
  • to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack.

These anonymously collected data and information are therefore statistically evaluated by Convaise on the one hand and also with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data processed by us. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a person concerned.

Texts and Simplifications

When using our simplification service, please only enter texts that you wish to transfer to our servers. The transmission of these texts is necessary in order for us to provide the translation and offer you our service. We process your texts you upload and their simplifications for a limited period of time to train and improve our neural networks and simplification algorithms. This also applies to corrections you make to our simplification suggestions. The corrections are forwarded to our servers to check them for accuracy and, if necessary, to update the translated text according to your changes. Please note that according to its terms of use, you may not use this-in-simple for the simplification of texts containing personal data of any kind.

Cookies and reach measurement

The website www.this-in-simple.com by Convaise does not use cookies. We use the Plausible Analytics service to measure reach on this website. The service is provided by Plausible Insights OÜ, Västriku tn 2, 50403, Tartu, Estonia (“Plausible”). By using the service, your browser connects to Plausible’s servers, where certain HTTP header data is stored so that we can track where our visitors come from, what systems they use, and which of our web pages are particularly attractive. We use this information to make our online offering more user-friendly and to measure how successful our marketing campaigns are. The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f of the DSGVO) to operate a modern and attractive presence on the Internet, to track what interests our customers and to make our marketing measures more effective. The IP address of the user is not stored directly, but anonymized via a separate procedure. We then only receive an aggregated overview. We have concluded an order processing contract with Plausible.
