Privacy Policy

A11y-AI is a service (hereinafter referred to as "A11y-AI" or "Service") of denkwerk GmbH.
A11y-AI interacts with the OpenAI API to provide its services.

For denkwerk, the protection of privacy and the correct handling of personal data is a top priority. Therefore, the service is designed in such a way that A11y-AI only accesses data that is necessary for the provision of the service. This also means that no data is collected and processed through your use of A11y-AI that is used for other purposes of denkwerk GmbH, such as marketing. The same applies to the aforementioned partner OpenAI.
With this data protection information, we would like to inform you about the type, scope and purpose of the processing of personal data when using A11y-AI.

A) Type, scope and purpose of the processing of personal data at denkwerk

When you access A11y-AI, your IP address is transmitted to enable you to use the service.
When you log in to Google on the A11y-AI website, Google transmits your e-mail address and the personal data you have provided (profile picture, name and language settings) to denkwerk GmbH.
In these cases, the processing takes place for the fulfillment of so-called contractual or pre-contractual relationships (Art. 6 para. (1) lit. b GDPR) or serves the legitimate interest of answering your request (Art. 6 para. (1) lit. f GDPR).

B) Our integration of third-party providers

A11y-AI does not place any advertising and does not pass on any data to advertisers or other providers with commercial interests. Data is not passed on to third parties for purposes other than the functional provision of the service itself. We use a Vercel database to store the reports for A11y-AI. No other data is stored.
