Our Consent Management Platform (CMP) ensures that you can manage your cookie preferences. Common browsers offer settings to control or prevent the storage of cookies. Please note that restricting cookies may affect the full functionality of this website.

We collect, use, and transfer your personal data only when permitted by law or with your consent. Personal data refers to any information that can directly or indirectly identify you, such as your name, email address, or phone number. You can visit our website without providing personal details. However, to improve our online offering we do store anonymized access data (without any personal reference). If you apply to us as a model via our website (e.g., through a "Mainboard Jobs" function or similar application form), we process your personal data, including contact details and uploaded image files, for the purpose of assessing your application and fulfilling our legitimate interest in providing our services (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR). This processing is strictly necessary for your application and is conducted in compliance with applicable data protection provisions.

Google Analytics 4 (GA4)

Based on our legitimate interest in optimizing and analyzing our online offering (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR), this website uses Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). GA4 uses cookies that allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google's Consent Mode is implemented on this website. This means that Google Analytics tags will adjust their behavior based on your cookie consent status. If you do not consent to analytics cookies, Google Analytics will only collect aggregated, anonymized data without using cookies, ensuring your privacy preferences are respected. IP anonymization is activated on this website. Your IP address is truncated within member states of the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

To ensure your privacy, we primarily use privacy-friendly integrations (e.g., two-click solutions or static image links) for social media content. This means that data is only transmitted to the social media provider if you actively click on the content or explicitly agree to load it. Once you click, your IP address and other information may be transmitted to Instagram LLC, and if you are logged into your Instagram account, this information may be linked to your account.
