7. IT Security and Abuse Prevention
To protect our website and IT systems against misuse, attacks, and unauthorized access, we use the security tool “CrowdSec.”
CrowdSec analyzes security-relevant technical access data (in particular IP addresses and information about suspicious access behavior such as automated access, scanning, or attack attempts) in order to detect and prevent attacks at an early stage.
If attack patterns are detected, access to our web services may be temporarily or permanently blocked.
Processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in ensuring the integrity, availability, and security of our IT systems.
Where security-relevant signals are exchanged with the CrowdSec infrastructure, this is done exclusively for IT security and abuse prevention purposes. The data are not used for any other purposes.
A transfer to third countries cannot be excluded. In such cases, processing is carried out on the basis of appropriate safeguards in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR.
Processing is limited to technically necessary information and does not take place for the purpose of user profiling or tracking.
Legal basis:
Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR
