Data security

BlackForxx GmbH continuously applies appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data as comprehensively as possible against manipulation, partial or complete loss and unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continually being improved in line with technological development.

In addition to securing the operating environment, we use, for example, an encryption procedure on our entire web platform. All data personally transmitted by you, including your payment data, is transferred by means of the generally used and secure standard SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol to prevent misuse of the data by third parties. SSL is a secure and proven standard that is also used in online banking. You can recognize a secure SSL connection, among other things, by the locked padlock symbol on the status bar of your browser and if the address line contains ‘https’.

Nevertheless, we draw your attention to the fact that Internet-based data transfers fundamentally have security vulnerabilities (e.g. when communicating by e-mail), so that absolute protection of the data against access by third parties cannot be guaranteed.

Proviso

BlackForxx GmbH reserves the right at any time to amend or supplement this privacy policy subject to consideration of the provisions under data protection law. All innovations and changes will be published on our website. New privacy policy provisions therefore become effective upon their publication. We recommend you to visit this website regularly to view the latest version.
