Privacy Policy (Datenschutzerklärung)

Last updated: 29 September 2026

1. Data Controller and Contact

This privacy policy informs you in accordance with Art. 13 and 14 of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) about which personal data we process, for what purposes and on what legal basis, and what rights you have. Personal designations are to be understood as gender-neutral.

The data controller responsible for data processing is Label Up GmbH, operator of the platforms Label Up and Labelizer.

2. Scope

This privacy policy applies to all personal data that we or processors commissioned by us process in the following areas:

  • our websites, in particular labelup.io

  • our platforms Label Up and Labelizer, including associated app integrations (e.g. the Shopify app)

  • our social network appearances

  • communication via email

Personal data refers to all information within the meaning of Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR relating to an identified or identifiable person, such as name, email address or physical address. If we contact you outside of these channels, we will inform you separately where applicable.

3. Legal Bases for Processing

We process personal data only if at least one of the following legal bases applies:

  • Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR): You have consented to the processing for a specific purpose, e.g. the placement of analytical and marketing cookies. You can withdraw your consent at any time with future effect.

  • Contract (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR): The processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you or for pre-contractual measures, e.g. for creating a quote.

  • Legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR): We are legally obliged to carry out the processing, e.g. to retain invoices.

  • Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR): The processing is necessary to protect our legitimate interests and your interests or fundamental rights do not override them, e.g. for the secure and stable operation of our website.

For the storage of information on your end device and access to it (e.g. through cookies), Section 165 Paragraph 3 of the Telecommunications Act 2021 (TKG 2021) additionally applies. Unless this is technically strictly necessary, we will obtain your consent for this.

4. Retention Period

We store personal data only for as long as is necessary for the respective purpose. If the purpose no longer applies, we delete the data, provided that there is no statutory retention obligation, such as for accounting documents (usually seven years pursuant to Section 132 BAO).

If you withdraw consent or request the deletion of your data, we will delete it as quickly as possible, provided there is no obligation to retain it. Specific retention periods for individual processing operations can be found in the respective sections.

5. Your Rights

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights. To exercise these, an informal message to dataprotection@labelup.io is sufficient.

  • Information (Art. 15): You can request information as to whether we process data about you. If so, you will receive a copy of the data as well as information on purposes, categories of data, recipients (including transfers to third countries and the guarantees in place for this), storage period, origin of the data and the existence of automated decision-making including profiling.

  • Rectification (Art. 16): You can request the rectification of incorrect data or the completion of incomplete data.

  • Erasure (Art. 17): You can request the deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten").

  • Restriction (Art. 18): You can request that we only store your data but do not use it any further.

  • Data portability (Art. 20): You can request that we provide you with your data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.

  • Objection (Art. 21): If processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR, you can object for reasons arising from your particular situation. We will then check as quickly as possible whether we must comply with the objection. You can object to processing for the purposes of direct marketing, including any associated profiling, at any time without giving reasons; we will then no longer use your data for these purposes.

  • No automated individual decision-making (Art. 22): Under certain circumstances, you have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

  • Withdrawal of consent (Art. 7 para. 3): You can withdraw consent once given at any time with future effect. The lawfulness of processing carried out up to the time of withdrawal remains unaffected.

Right to lodge a complaint (Art. 77): If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law, you can lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the Austrian Data Protection Authority, Barichgasse 40-42, 1030 Vienna, Email: dsb@dsb.gv.at, www.dsb.gv.at.

The data can be transmitted to Google servers in the US and stored there. According to Google, Google Analytics 4 does not store IP addresses.

Google evaluates the data on our behalf and creates reports for us on website activity. We use the results to optimize our website and our advertising measures. You can prevent collection at any time via the "Cookie Settings" at the bottom of the page. Further information: Google Privacy Policy.

Cookies used

  • test_cookie (third-party doubleclick.net, 15 minutes): tests whether the browser allows cookies; contains no identification features

  • IDE (third-party doubleclick.net, 1 year): randomly generated ID with which Google recognizes users across websites and displays personalized ads

8.5 Meta Pixel

Provider: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Dublin, Ireland

With the Meta Pixel, we can track how users behave on our website after they have clicked on one of our ads on Facebook. We use this to evaluate ads for statistical and market research purposes, to optimize future advertising measures and to recognize which interactions have taken place on the website (e.g. downloads). We can also display interest-based ads to visitors of our website on Facebook (Custom Audiences).

When visiting our website, the pixel establishes a direct connection to Meta's servers. Meta thereby receives the information that you have visited our website and can assign this to your Facebook account. We do not receive any data ourselves with which we can identify you. We are jointly responsible with Meta for the collection and transmission of the data to Meta (Art. 26 GDPR). Meta is solely responsible for further processing, including for Meta's own advertising purposes. Further information: Meta Privacy Policy.

When you connect a Shopify store to Labelizer, our app reads product and catalog data from your store and uses it exclusively for Labelizer functions. If you uninstall the app, we stop reading and delete the store's data as soon as Shopify transmits the deletion request; upon request, also earlier via dataprotection@labelup.io.

10.4 Anonymized Data

We can use data that you transfer to the platform or that we collect within the scope of service provision in anonymized form, i.e. without any reference to a person, for any purposes, such as for statistics and the further development of our products.

Some of the recipients mentioned, in particular Google, Meta and LinkedIn or their parent companies, may process your data outside the EU or EEA, primarily in the US. The level of data protection in these countries may not correspond to that in the EU.

We transfer personal data to third countries only if one of the following guarantees exists:

  • Adequacy decision of the EU Commission (Art. 45 GDPR): For the US, this applies to recipients certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/1795).

  • Standard Contractual Clauses (Art. 46 para. 2 lit. c GDPR): We conclude the Standard Contractual Clauses of the EU Commission (Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914) with recipients without an adequacy decision.

A copy of the respective guarantees is available on request to dataprotection@labelup.io.
