To give you the ability to customize the TeachingHero application to your personal needs and usage habits, we use the so-called Local Storage technology. Data is stored locally in your browser’s cache, which remains even after closing the browser window or exiting the program – as long as you do not delete the cache – and can be read again later. Local Storage allows your preferences when using TeachingHero to be stored and retrieved on your computer.

Third parties have no access to the data stored in Local Storage. The data is not shared with third parties and is not used for advertising purposes.

We use this technology based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR to provide you with the best possible functionality of our application.

When contacting us, only the personal data you provide is collected. This data is stored and used solely for the purpose of responding to your inquiry or contacting you and for the related technical administration.

Your data will be deleted once your inquiry has been fully processed. This is the case when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the relevant matter has been conclusively clarified and there are no statutory retention obligations that require otherwise.

You can register on our websites by providing personal data. Which personal data is processed for registration is derived from the respective input form used.

The above-mentioned data is mandatory; any other information can be provided voluntarily through our form.

Google Maps

We use Google Maps (API) by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ('Google'), on our websites.

Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (land) maps to visually present geographical information. Using this service allows our location to be displayed and makes navigation easier.

Once you access the subpages containing the Google Maps map, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to and stored on Google’s servers in the USA.

This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in or whether no user account exists.

If you are logged into Google, your data will be directly associated with your account. If you do not want this association, you must log out before activating the button.

Google stores your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and analyzes them.

Such analysis is carried out in particular pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR based on Google’s legitimate interests in displaying personalized advertising, market research, and/or demand-oriented website design.

You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, and you must contact Google to exercise this right.

Google LLC, based in the USA, is certified under the U.S.-EU 'Privacy Shield' framework, which ensures compliance with EU data protection standards.

If you do not agree to the transmission of your data when using Google Maps, you can completely deactivate the Google Maps web service by disabling JavaScript in your browser. Google Maps and thus the map display on this website can then no longer be used.
