Welcome to ExpertSlides, operated by ES Solutions GmbH ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

• Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR: Based on your explicit consent (e.g., for newsletters or tracking cookies).

4. Specific Data Categories

• Account & Profile: Name, email, and password.

To optimize our services and provide relevant offers, we use tracking technologies from various ad platforms. These tools allow us to track user behavior after they have been redirected to our website by clicking on an ad.

6. Data Sharing and Third-Party Providers

We use specialized service providers to operate our platform:

• Infrastructure: Cloud hosting (e.g., AWS or Google Cloud).
• AI Models: We may share anonymized or pseudonymized input data with AI model providers to generate your presentations.
• Communication: Email service providers for transaction and marketing emails.

When data is processed outside the EEA (specifically in the USA), we ensure an adequate level of protection through the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework or Standard Contractual Clauses as approved by the European Commission.

As a data subject, you have the following rights:

• Right to Access: Know what data we store about you.
• Right to Rectification: Correct inaccurate data.
• Right to Erasure ("Right to be forgotten"): Request deletion of your data.
• Right to Restriction: Limit how we process your data.

To exercise these rights, contact privacy@expertslides.ai. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority (e.g., the Der Hessische Beauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit).

We use a Consent Management Platform (CMP) or "Cookie Banner." Essential cookies are loaded by default for security and functionality. Non-essential cookies (Marketing/Analysis) are only loaded if you click "Accept."

We store your information only as long as necessary to provide our services or as required by German commercial and tax laws (typically 6 to 10 years for payment-related data).
