2. Provision of this website
When you access this website, technically necessary information is processed. This may include your IP address, date and time of access, content accessed, volume of data transferred, referrer, browser type, browser version and operating system.
We process this information to deliver the website, ensure its functionality and detect attacks or misuse. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the secure and reliable operation of this website.
3. Hosting and technical service providers
We use specialised service providers for hosting, delivery, security and technical operations. They process data on our behalf or on another lawful basis under data protection law. Where processing takes place outside the European Economic Area, we rely on an adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards within the meaning of Articles 44 et seq. GDPR.
4. Project enquiries
When you use the project form, we process the contact and project data you provide. This includes your name, company, email address, optional phone number and information about the project, location, financing volume, project status, use of funds and your message.
We process this data to review your enquiry, contact you and prepare a potential business relationship. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Where the enquiry is not directly aimed at entering into a contract, processing is based on our legitimate interest in handling business enquiries under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Your information is accessible only to the people and service providers who need it to process your enquiry. Where necessary for the joint assessment or structuring of your enquiry, data may be shared with Soho Haus Ltda, project specific financing entities or selected financing partners. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR. You will be informed of the specific contracting party before any financing is concluded.
5. Storage period
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose. We generally delete data from project enquiries no later than twelve months after communication has ended, unless a business relationship is established or statutory retention duties or legitimate interests require longer storage. Contractual and accounting documents are retained for the applicable statutory periods.
6. Cookies and similar technologies
We currently do not use analytics, marketing or profiling technologies or optional cookies on the public website. Services requiring consent are therefore not loaded. Technically necessary storage may be used solely for security, form functionality and protected internal access.
If we add services requiring consent in the future, they will be activated only after you have given consent, and this privacy notice will be updated accordingly.
7. Your rights
Subject to the statutory requirements, you have the right to access, rectify and erase your personal data, restrict its processing and receive it in a portable format. You may object to processing based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR on grounds relating to your particular situation.
To exercise your rights, please contact us using the details above.
8. Right to lodge a complaint
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. For companies established in North Rhine Westphalia, the competent authority is generally the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information North Rhine Westphalia, Kavalleriestraße 2 to 4, 40213 Düsseldorf, Germany. Further information is available at www.ldi.nrw.de.
9. Security and updates
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data. We update this information when the website, the services used or legal requirements change.
