1. Data Protection at a Glance

The following provides an overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit this website or use the Verso Digital Business Card product. Personal data is any data that can identify you. Two legal frameworks apply in parallel: the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR / DSGVO) and the Turkish Personal Data Protection Law (KVKK, Law No. 6698).

3. Data Collection

Contact Form

Data submitted via the contact form (name, work email, company, message, optional phone) is stored for processing the inquiry and follow-up. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for contract-related inquiries, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR for legitimate interest, or Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR if consent was given. KVKK basis: Art. 5(2)(c) (sözleşme ifası) or Art. 5(1) açık rıza.

Server Log Files

The hosting provider automatically collects browser type, OS, referrer URL, hostname, IP address (truncated where possible), and request time. Retention: 14 days for security/abuse analysis, then deleted. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in operational security).

Cookie Consent Log

When you make a cookie banner choice (accept / reject), we store the choice plus a timestamp in your browser's localStorage. We do not transmit your IP for this consent record. You can revoke or change the choice at any time via the page footer link. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR (legal obligation under § 25 TDDDG to document consent).

4. Hosting

Marketing site (opsolid.de)

The public marketing site is hosted on Vercel, Inc. (440 N Baxter St, Los Angeles, CA 90012, USA). Your IP address and usage data are processed by Vercel. Vercel is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF), providing an adequacy basis for the transfer. AVV (Art. 28 GDPR) is in place via Vercel's Data Processing Addendum.

Verso application (planned)

The Verso Digital Business Card application backend and database will run on a self-hosted Hostinger VPS (Hostinger International Ltd., Lithuania, EU). All Verso card content and customer data will remain on EU servers. AVV with Hostinger will be on file before any production data is processed.

5. Cookies & Analytics

Strictly necessary

Language preference and cookie consent state are stored in your browser's localStorage. These are strictly necessary for the site to function and do not require consent under § 25(2) TDDDG.

Optional analytics

If you accept analytics in the cookie banner, anonymous page-view counts may be collected via Vercel Analytics. This collection happens without cookies and without personal identifiers and cannot identify individual visitors. If you reject, no analytics call is made.

No third-party tracking, ads, or social plugins

No advertising cookies, no third-party tracking pixels, no social-network plugins, no fingerprinting. Fonts are self-hosted (no Google Fonts CDN call).

6. Sub-Processors

We engage the following sub-processors to deliver the service. AVV / DPA agreements per Art. 28 GDPR are on file for each. The current list at any time can be requested via info@opsolid.de.

Hosting & infrastructure

Vercel Inc. (US, DPF-certified) — marketing site hosting; Hostinger International Ltd. (LT, EU) — Verso application + Postgres database (planned).

Email delivery

SMTP relay used for contact-form notifications. Provider details are listed on request and updated when changed.

Payments (Verso, planned)

Stripe Payments Europe Ltd. (Ireland) for one-time and subscription billing. Card data is tokenised by Stripe; OpSolid never sees raw PAN. DPA in place via Stripe Services Agreement. International transfer to Stripe US under DPF + SCC.

AI providers (where used)

OpenAI Ireland Ltd. and Anthropic Ireland Ltd. may be engaged via API for production features. DPAs and SCCs in place; user content is not used for model training (API-side opt-out enabled).

7. International Data Transfers

Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (e.g. to Vercel, Stripe, OpenAI, Anthropic in the United States), the transfer is based on (a) the EU-US Data Privacy Framework adequacy decision where the recipient is DPF-certified, or (b) Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC, EU 2021/914) with a documented Transfer Impact Assessment. For Türkiye-resident data subjects, KVKK Art. 9 yurtdışı aktarım rules apply: transfers are made under KVKK standard contractual clauses (Yönetmelik 10.07.2024) and notified to the Kurum within 5 business days where required.

8. Verso Digital Business Card Product

Purpose & legal basis

We process the contact details you submit through the Verso lead form or self-service order flow (name, work email, company, role, phone (optional), message, photo/logo upload, brand colours, social links) to provide the Digital Business Card service. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (contract performance) and Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (your explicit consent for public publication).

Public publication of your card

When you publish a Verso card at /c/{slug}, the information you have entered becomes publicly accessible on the internet. This requires your explicit, separate opt-in checkbox at publish time. You can unpublish or delete the card at any time from your account; we will then add a noindex header and request URL removal from major search engines.

Third-party content

You are solely responsible for ensuring you have all rights to any photo, logo, or other content you upload. By uploading you confirm you hold the necessary rights. Notice-and-takedown requests may be sent to info@opsolid.de; we respond within 7 days.

Hosting

Card data and customer records are stored on the Hostinger VPS (Lithuania, EU). No US sub-processors for Verso card content itself; payment data is processed by Stripe under separate sub-processor terms above.

14-day right of withdrawal (B2C)

If you order Verso as a consumer (B2C, EU/EEA), you have a 14-day right of withdrawal under § 355 BGB. For digital services to start before the 14 days end, you must explicitly request immediate performance and acknowledge that the right of withdrawal lapses upon full performance — both via separate checkboxes at checkout. We log your acknowledgements for evidence. From 19 June 2026, a one-click withdrawal button is provided.

Retention

Active Verso cards: retained while the subscription is active. Cancelled / inactive: deleted 90 days after subscription end (a reminder email is sent at day 60). Lead form submissions (no purchase): 24 months. Invoices: retained 10 years per § 257 HGB / Vergi Usul Kanunu (legal obligation).

Right to deletion

You may delete your Verso card and all associated personal data with one click from your account, or by emailing info@opsolid.de. Deletion is effective within 30 days. Identity verification (email confirmation + 2FA where enabled) is required before destructive actions.

9. Your Rights (GDPR)

Under Articles 15–22 GDPR you have the right to: access (Art. 15), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20), and to object to processing (Art. 21). You may withdraw any consent at any time without affecting prior processing. To exercise rights, email info@opsolid.de — we respond within one month (Art. 12(3)). You may also lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority of your habitual residence or place of the alleged infringement.

10. Your Rights (KVKK Madde 11) — for Türkiye-resident data subjects

6698 sayılı KVKK m.11 uyarınca: kişisel verilerinizin işlenip işlenmediğini öğrenme, işlenmişse buna ilişkin bilgi talep etme, işleme amacını ve amacına uygun kullanılıp kullanılmadığını öğrenme, yurt içi/yurt dışında aktarıldığı üçüncü kişileri bilme, eksik/yanlış işlenmişse düzeltilmesini isteme, KVKK m.7'deki şartlarda silinmesini/yok edilmesini isteme, otomatik sistemlerle yapılan analiz sonucu aleyhinize bir sonuç çıkmasına itiraz etme, kanuna aykırı işleme nedeniyle uğradığınız zararın giderilmesini talep etme. Başvuru: info@opsolid.de. KVKK 2026/347 ilke kararı uyarınca aydınlatma metni (bu sayfa) ile açık rıza beyanı ayrı belgelerdir; rıza onayı ürün akışında ayrıca alınır.

11. Data Breach Notification

If a personal data breach is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we notify the competent supervisory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware (Art. 33 GDPR). High-risk breaches are also communicated to affected individuals without undue delay (Art. 34 GDPR). Under KVKK we additionally notify the Kurum and affected persons in the shortest reasonable time (KVKK Kurul kararları).

12. Changes to this Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in law or our processing. Material changes will be announced on this page and, where you have an account, by email at least 30 days in advance.
