2. Legal bases of the processing

The processing of personal data requires a legal basis, which we would like to present to you below.

For processing of personal data for which we obtain the consent of the data subject, Article 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.

When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Article 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also includes processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures.

Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfillment of a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6 (1) lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override the first-mentioned interest, Article 6 (1) lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing. The legitimate interest of our company lies in the performance of our business activities as well as in the analysis, optimization and maintenance of the security of our online offer.

 

II. Log files, hosting

In the server statistics, data is automatically stored that the browser transmits to us as part of our legitimate interest in analysis and for security reasons (so-called "log files").

In detail, these are the following data:

  • Language and version of the browser software
  • Operating system used and its interface
  • Referrer URL (the previously visited page)
  • Host name of the accessing computer (IP address)
  • Date and time of the server request
  • Time zone difference from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
  • Content of the request (concrete page)
  • Data volume transferred
  • Access status/ HTTP status code.

As a rule, we cannot assign this data to specific persons. A combination of this data with other data sources is not made. The data is also deleted within 7 days after a statistical evaluation. Data whose further retention is required for evidentiary purposes is exempt from deletion until final clarification of the respective incident.

We make use of hosting services. These serve to provide infrastructure and platform services, computing capacity, storage space and database services, security services and technical maintenance services to maintain the operation of this online offer.

In doing so, we or our hosting provider process inventory data, contact data, content data, contract data, usage data, meta data and communication data of customers, interested parties and visitors of this online offer on the basis of our legitimate interests in an efficient and secure provision of this online offer.

 

III. Contractual processing

The personal data provided by you for contractual purposes in the case of, for example, requests for quotations, such as name, address or e-mail address, will only be used internally to answer your inquiries, process your orders or provide you with access to certain contractual information.

 

IV. Contact, application data

1. Contact

When you contact us by e-mail or via the contact form, your information will be stored by us to answer your questions.

As a matter of principle, data will not be passed on to third parties unless applicable data protection regulations justify a transfer or we are legally obliged to do so. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. In the event of revocation, your data will be deleted immediately, unless there is a legal exception for further processing. Your data will otherwise be deleted when we have processed your request or the purpose of storage has ceased to apply and there are no other legal exceptions to the contrary.

 

2. Application data

With your application, you agree to be contacted and informed in writing and / or by telephone as part of the application process.

We wish to evaluate all applicants only on the basis of their qualifications, regardless of race, ethnic origin, gender, religion or belief, disability, age or sexual identity.

VI. Newsletter

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on our website, we require a valid e-mail address from you that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified e-mail address or that the owner agrees to receive the newsletter.

After providing the e-mail address, we will send you a confirmation e-mail to the address provided, in which we ask you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. If you do not confirm this within 24 hours, your data relating to the newsletter dispatch will be automatically deleted. If you confirm your wish to receive the newsletter, we will store your e-mail address until you unsubscribe from the newsletter.

We send newsletters only with your consent or legal permission.

We work together with a shipping service provider. According to its own information, the shipping service provider may use this data in pseudonymous form, i.e. without assigning it to a user, to optimize or improve its own services, e.g. to technically optimize the shipping and display of the newsletter or for statistical purposes to determine which countries the recipients come from. However, the dispatch service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write to them itself or to pass them on to third parties.

The newsletter is sent by means of CleverReach GmbH & Co. KG, Mühlenstr. 43, 26180 Rastede, referred to as the "shipping service provider". You can view the privacy policy of the shipping service provider here: https://www.cleverreach.com/de/datenschutz/.

You can revoke your consent to the storage of the data, the e-mail address and their use for sending the newsletter at any time. You will find a link to cancel the newsletter at the end of each newsletter. If users have only subscribed to the newsletter and cancelled this subscription, their personal data will be deleted.

 

VII. Registration

Our website offers registration and login options for the download offers. The personal data entered during registration or login process will be transmitted to the controller. The data is stored exclusively for internal use by us.

When registering /logging in, the IP address of the user and the date and time are stored. This serves to prevent misuse of the services. The data will not be passed on to third parties. An exception exists if there is a legal obligation to pass on the data.

The registration of data is required for the provision of content or services. Registered persons have the possibility to have the stored data deleted or modified at any time. The data subject will receive information about the personal data stored about him at any time.

 

VIII. Our presences in social media

You can find us under online presences within social networks and platforms. With these presences, we would like to communicate with our customers, interested parties and users active there and inform them about our services and our company in this way.

The processing of the personal data of the users active there is based on our legitimate interests in communicating and providing information to and with the users. If users have given their consent to data processing on the respective social platform, the processing is carried out on the basis of this consent.

If you visit one of our social media sites, we are jointly responsible with the operator of the social platform for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. In principle, you can assert your rights (information, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint, see the following point "Rights of the data subject") both against us and against the operator of the respective social platform.

We would like to point out that despite the joint responsibility, we do not have full influence on the data processing operations of the social platform and, if necessary, forward the rights request to the respective operator for better processing of the data subject rights. Our options are basically based on the corporate policy of the respective provider.

You can find our storage details below. We have no influence on the storage period of your data, which is stored by the operator of the social platform for its own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the social networks directly (e.g. in their privacy policy, see below).

Depending on the following named social platform, the data processing of users may also occur outside the area of the European Union. EU standard contractual clauses have been agreed with the US companies, so that we have taken possible measures to ensure compliance with European data protection law.

As a rule, user data is processed by the platforms for market research and advertising purposes. For example, usage profiles can be created from the usage behavior and resulting interests of the users. The usage profiles can in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements within and outside the platforms that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. For this purpose, cookies are usually stored on the users' computers, in which the usage behavior and interests of the users are stored. Data can also be stored in the usage profiles regardless of the devices used by the users. This occurs in particular if the users are members of the respective platforms and are logged in to them.

When you click on an ad placed by Google, so-called "cookies", text files that are stored on your computer, are set. The cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. This allows Google and us to recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. The conversion cookies are used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers. These customers receive the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. Personal identification is not possible for these customers either. You can object to this use by deactivating the Google conversion tracking cookie in your internet browser. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. For more information about Google's privacy policy, please visit the following website: http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

 

b. Youtube

We use the provider YouTube, a service of Google, to embed videos.

These videos are stored on www.youtube.com and can be played directly from our site. YouTube uses cookies for data collection and statistical data analysis. YouTube uses cookies to, among other things, collect reliable video statistics, prevent fraud, and improve the user experience. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by YouTube on servers in the United States.  Your IP address cannot be assigned unless you have logged in to YouTube or another Google service before accessing the page or are permanently logged in. If you do not wish this, you must log out of your YouTube account and your other Google accounts.

Through the YouTube cookies, we receive statistical values on the retrieval of individual videos embedded in the website without a reference to the respective user.

Our website uses social plug-ins ("plug-ins") from Facebook. The plug-ins are marked with a Facebook logo (white "f" on a blue tile, the terms "Like", "Like" or a "thumbs up" sign) or the addition "Facebook Social Plug- In".

When you call up a web page of our website that contains such a plug-in, your browser establishes a direct connection with the Facebook servers.

This transmits personal information, such as your IP address, URL, date and time, as well as other browser-related information to Facebook and stores it in the U.S., whereby according to Facebook in Germany only an anonymized IP is collected.

If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can assign the visit to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plug-ins, for example by clicking the "Like" button or posting a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted directly from your browser to Facebook, stored there and, depending on your Facebook settings, shared with your Facebook contacts. If you do not wish this to happen, please log out of your Facebook account (before pressing the opt-in button).

Facebook stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or needs-based design of its website and other websites.

Facebook already sets cookies for this purpose when you have visited the page www.facebook.com and forwards your data to third parties.
