If you have provided additional voluntary information, the processing of this data is based on your voluntarily given consent (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a GDPR).

f. PostHog analytics
We use PostHog to understand how visitors use pete.community and the interactive demo dashboard, so that we can improve navigation, content and product experience.

For this purpose, we collect anonymized usage and interaction data such as visited pages, approximate time of access, referrer information, browser and device type, clicked calls to action, selected dashboard views, filter usage, drilldowns, table grouping and sorting actions. We do not use this analytics setup to identify individual visitors, we do not create person profiles, and we do not collect or send ticket numbers, customer names, free-text inputs or demo data records to PostHog.

The provider is PostHog Inc. We use the EU ingestion endpoint https://eu.i.posthog.com. The analytics configuration on this website is set to avoid persistent browser storage and to avoid creating person profiles. Technical request metadata may still be processed by PostHog for delivery, security and analytics processing, but the usage analysis available to us is not used to identify individual visitors.

The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest in measuring and improving the usability and effectiveness of this website and demo pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f GDPR. You may object to this processing at any time by contacting us at info@pete-ai.com.

g. External content
We integrate external content into our website that is loaded from the servers of the respective provider. This may involve videos, for example.
An integration always requires that the provider sends its content to your browser via your IP address. The IP address is used to display the content and is also required for the function. In some cases, providers use pixel tags (invisible graphics) for statistical or marketing purposes. This allows information to be evaluated. In addition, cookies are sometimes used in which user data is stored.
The legal basis for the integration of this content is our legitimate interest in providing our website and user-friendliness in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f) DSGVO.
The service provider for the integration of YouTube videos is Google. The basis for a third country transfer is the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF).
