Privacy Policy

Thank you for your interest in vcard-network.com, a service of redaktion-i-media.de. The protection of your personal data is an important concern for us. In the following we would like to inform you about the processing of your data:

1. type of service

vcard-network.com is a digital-only service that allows you to create and manage a personal or professional vCard. Your vCard contains contact information and, where applicable, other information that you voluntarily provide. This data is processed by us exclusively within the scope of the service you have ordered.

Visibility of Your vCard

In the context of a business card, your vCard is published and viewable on the Internet publicly and without password protection. Therefore, please exercise your own responsibility when publishing only the information about yourself that you would also make readable on your physical business card.

Search Engine Discoverability

By default, our vCard business cards are set to be inaccessible for search engine crawling. We take the protection of your data and privacy seriously and implement technical measures to prevent unwanted crawling and extraction.

However, it is important to note that as a user, you have full control over the distribution and publication of your vCard business cards. If you distribute and publish your vCard links independently and responsibly according to your wishes and requirements, search engines may still discover your vCard despite the default setting.

We make every effort to protect your data and prevent unauthorized crawling. We use "noindex" and "nofollow" commands to instruct search engines not to index your vCard and not to follow the links. This is in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Please note, however, that search engines may deviate from the instructions we set and may still index your vCard or extract linked content in some cases. We cannot guarantee complete control over the behavior of search engines, although we take reasonable steps to protect your data.

If you have any further questions regarding the privacy and security of your vCard business cards, we are here to assist you.

2. Collection and Use of Data
