General information on data processing

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

In accordance with Art. 13 DSGVO, we inform you of the legal basis for our data processing. If the legal basis is not specified in the data protection notice, the following applies: The legal basis for obtaining consent is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a in conjunction with. Art. 7 DSGVO. The legal basis for processing for the fulfillment of our services and implementation of contractual measures as well as for responding to inquiries is Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO. The legal basis for processing for the fulfillment of our legal obligations is Art. 6 (1) lit. c DSGVO. If the processing of your data is necessary for the protection of a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override the former interest, Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO serves as the legal basis for the processing. In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make it necessary to process personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. d DSGVO serves as the legal basis.

Data deletion and storage period

We adhere to the principles of data minimization according to Art. 5 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO and storage limitation according to Art. 5 para. 1 lit. e DSGVO. We store your personal data only as long as this is necessary to achieve the purposes stated here or as provided for by the retention periods stipulated by the legislator. After the respective purpose ceases to apply or after these retention periods have expired, the corresponding data will be deleted as soon as possible.

External links

This website may contain links to websites of third parties or to other websites under our responsibility. If you follow a link to one of the websites outside our responsibility, please note that these websites have their own data protection information. We do not assume any responsibility or liability for these third-party websites and their privacy notices. Therefore, before using these websites, please check whether you agree with the data protection statements there.

You can recognize external links either by the fact that they are displayed in a different color from the rest of the text or underlined. Your cursor will show you external links when you move it over such a link. Only when you click on an external link will your personal data be transferred to the target of the link. In doing so, the operator of the other website receives in particular your IP address, the time at which you clicked on the link, the page on which you clicked on the link, as well as further information, which you will find in the data protection notices of the respective provider.

Please also note that individual links may lead to data transfer outside the European Economic Area. This could give foreign authorities access to your data. You may not be entitled to any legal remedies against these data accesses. If you do not want your personal data to be transferred to the link destination or even undesirably exposed to access by foreign authorities, please do not click on any links.

Rights of the data subject

As a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR, you have the opportunity to assert various rights. The data subject rights resulting from the GDPR are the right to information (Article 15), the right to rectification (Article 16), the right to erasure (Article 17), the right to restriction of processing (Article 18), the right to object (Article 21), the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority and the right to data portability (Article 20).

Right of withdrawal:

Some data processing can only take place with your explicit consent. You have the possibility to revoke your given consent at any time. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of the data processing until the revocation.

RIGHT OF OBJECTION:

IF THE PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6 PARA. 1 LIT. E OR F DSGVO, YOU, AS THE DATA SUBJECT, MAY OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA RELATING TO YOU AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION. YOU ALSO HAVE THIS RIGHT IN THE CASE OF PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS ISD ART. 4 Z 4 DSGVO. UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE A LEGITIMATE INTEREST FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDES YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR A PROCESSING SERVES THE ASSERTION, EXERCISE OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS, WE WILL REFRAIN FROM PROCESSING YOUR DATA AFTER THE OBJECTION HAS BEEN MADE.

IF THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA SERVES THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT ADVERTISING, YOU ALSO HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME. THE SAME APPLIES TO PROFILING IN CONNECTION WITH DIRECT ADVERTISING. HERE TOO, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS PERSONAL DATA AS SOON AS YOU RAISE AN OBJECTION.

Right to complain to a supervisory authority:

If you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of your residence, workplace or the place of the alleged infringement, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

Right to data portability:

If your data is processed automatically on the basis of consent or performance of a contract, you have the right to receive this data in a structured, common and machine-readable format. In addition, you have the right to request that the data be transferred and made available to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible.

Right of access, rectification and deletion:

You have the right to obtain information about your processed personal data regarding the purpose of the data processing, the categories, the recipients as well as the duration of the storage. If you have any questions on this topic or on other topics regarding personal data, you can of course contact us using the contact options provided in the imprint.

Right to restriction of processing:

You can assert the restriction of the processing of your personal data at any time. To do so, you must meet one of the following requirements:

  • You dispute the accuracy of the personal data. For the duration of the verification of the accuracy, you have the right to request a restriction of processing.
  • If processing is carried out unlawfully, you may request the restriction of the use of the data as an alternative to erasure.
  • If we no longer need your personal data for the purposes of processing, but you need the data for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims, you may, as an alternative to erasure, request restriction of processing.
  • If you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) DSGVO, a balancing of your and our interests will be carried out. Until this balancing has taken place, you have the right to request the restriction of processing.

The consequence of a restriction of processing is that, apart from storage, the personal data may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or a Member State.

Provision of the website (web host)

When you access our website, we automatically collect and store information in so-called server log files. Your browser automatically transmits this information to our server or to the server of our hosting company.

These are:

  • IP address of the end device of the website visitor.
  • Device used
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • Operating system of the visitor
  • Browser type and version
  • Name of the retrieved file
  • Time of the server request
  • Amount of data
  • Information whether the retrieval of the data was successful

This data is not merged with other data sources.

Instead of operating this website on our own server, we can also have it operated on the server of an external service provider (hosting company), which we have named above in this case. The personal data collected by this website will then be stored on the servers of the hosting company. In addition to the data mentioned above, the web host also stores for us, for example, contact requests, contact data, names, website access data, meta and communication data, contract data and other data generated via a website.

The legal basis for the processing of this data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. Our legitimate interest is the technically error-free presentation and optimization of this website. If the website is accessed in order to enter into contract negotiations with us or to conclude a contract, this serves as a further legal basis (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO). In the event that we have commissioned a hosting company, there is an order processing contract with this service provider.

Use of local storage items, session storage items and cookies

Our website uses local storage items, session storage items and/or cookies. Local storage is a mechanism that allows data to be stored within the browser on your terminal device. This data usually includes user preferences, such as the "day" or "night" mode of a web page, and is retained until you manually delete the data. Session Storage is very similar to Local Storage, whereas the storage period only lasts during the current session, i.e. until you close the current tab. After that, Session Storage items are deleted from your terminal. Cookies are pieces of information that a web server (server that provides web content) stores on your device in order to identify that device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) and deleted at the end of your visit to a website, or permanently (permanent cookies) on your end device until you delete them yourself or until they are automatically deleted by your web browser.

These objects may also be stored on your terminal device by third-party companies when you enter our site (third-party requests). This enables us as the operator and you as a visitor to this website to use certain services of third parties installed on this website. Examples include the processing of payment services or the display of videos.

These mechanisms have a variety of uses. They can improve the functionality of a website, control shopping cart functions, increase the security and convenience of website use, and perform analyses regarding visitor flows and behavior. Depending on the individual functions, these must be classified in terms of data protection law. If they are necessary for the operation of the website and intended to provide certain functions (shopping cart function) or serve to optimize the website (e.g. cookies to measure visitor behavior), then their use is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. As a website operator, we have a legitimate interest in storing local storage items, session storage items and cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of our services. In all other cases, the storage of local storage items, session storage items and cookies only takes place with your express consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO).

If local storage items, session storage or cookies are used by third-party companies or for analysis purposes, we will inform you about this separately within the scope of this data protection notice. Your required consent will be requested and can be revoked at any time.

Use of external services

External services are used on our website. External services are services from third-party providers that are used on our website. This can be done for various reasons, for example, for embedding videos or for the security of the website. When using these services, personal data is also passed on to the respective providers of these external services. If we do not have a legitimate interest in using these services, we will obtain your consent as a visitor to our website, which can be revoked at any time, before using them (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO).

Analytics

In order to analyze user behavior, we process personal data of website visitors. By evaluating the data obtained, we are able to compile information about the use of the individual components of our website. This enables us to increase the user-friendliness of our website. By means of the analysis tools used, user profiles could, for example, be created for the playout of targeted or interest-related advertising messages, our website visitors could be recognized the next time they visit our website, their click/scroll behavior, their downloads could be measured, heat maps could be created, page views could be recognized, the duration of visits or bounce rates could be measured, and the origin of the website visitors (city, country, from which page the visitor comes) could be traced. With the help of the analysis tools, our market research and marketing activities can be improved.

Processing only occurs if you consent to this data processing (via our consent banner on the website). The legal basis for this processing is consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). Without your consent, data processing in the manner described above will not take place. If you revoke your consent (e.g. via the consent banner or other options provided on this website), we will stop this data processing. The lawfulness of the processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected.

Software frameworks facilitate interaction with a platform by providing a standardized interface to it. Frameworks are used to reduce development effort for recurring software requirements and to ensure code and feature reusability. Some software frameworks implement security features to prevent improper use of the website. Software frameworks can increase function, accessibility, security and performance with little effort. Other application areas can also be covered by software frameworks.

Newsletter

Newsletter data

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require an e-mail address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. Further data is not collected or only on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

The processing of the data entered in the newsletter registration form is based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). 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, for example via the "unsubscribe" link in the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you provide for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you unsubscribe from the newsletter. Data that has been stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected by this.

After you have unsubscribed from the newsletter distribution list, your e-mail address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO). The storage in the blacklist is not limited in time. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

CleverReach

This website uses CleverReach to send newsletters. The provider is CleverReach GmbH & Co KG, Mühlenstr. 43, 26180 Rastede. CleverReach is a service with which the newsletter dispatch can be organized and analyzed. The data you enter for the purpose of receiving newsletters (e.g. e-mail address) is stored on CleverReach's servers in Germany or Ireland.

Our newsletters sent with CleverReach allow us to analyze the behavior of newsletter recipients. Among other things, we can analyze how many recipients have opened the newsletter message and how often which link in the newsletter was clicked. With the help of so-called conversion tracking, it can also be analyzed whether a predefined action (e.g. purchase of a product on this website) has taken place after clicking on the link in the newsletter. For more information on data analysis by CleverReach newsletters, please visit: www.cleverreach.com/de/funktionen/reporting-und-tracking.

The data processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke this consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

If you do not want any analysis by CleverReach, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this purpose, we provide a corresponding link in each newsletter message. Furthermore, you can also unsubscribe from the newsletter directly on the website.

The data you provide for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you unsubscribe. Data that has been stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected by this.

After you have unsubscribed from the newsletter distribution list, your e-mail address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO). The storage in the blacklist is not limited in time. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

For more details, please refer to the data protection provisions of CleverReach at: www.cleverreach.com/de/datenschutz.

Other services

Contact form

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, the information you provide in the inquiry form, including the contact data you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO, if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the requests addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO) if this has been requested.

The data you entered in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have completed processing your request). Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

Inquiry by e-mail, telephone or fax

If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your inquiry including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO, if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the requests sent to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO) if this has been requested.

The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions - in particular legal retention periods - remain unaffected.

Registration on this website

You can register on this website in order to use additional functions on the site. We use the data entered for this purpose only for the purpose of using the respective offer or service for which you have registered. The mandatory information requested during registration must be provided in full. Otherwise we will reject the registration.

For important changes, for example in the scope of the offer or for technically necessary changes, we use the e-mail address provided during registration to inform you in this way.

The data entered during registration is processed for the purpose of implementing the user relationship established by registration and, if necessary, for initiating further contracts (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO).

The data collected during registration will be stored by us for as long as you are registered on this website and will then be deleted. Legal retention periods remain unaffected.

Comment function on this website

For the comment function on this site, in addition to your comment, details of when the comment was created, your e-mail address and, if you do not post anonymously, the username you have chosen will be stored.

Storage period of the comments

The comments and the associated data (e.g. IP address) are stored and remain on this website until the commented content has been completely deleted or the comments have to be deleted for legal reasons (e.g. offensive comments).

Legal basis

The storage of the comments is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke any consent you have given at any time. For this purpose, an informal communication by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

Data processing through social networks

We maintain publicly accessible profiles in social networks. The social networks used by us in detail can be found below.

Social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. can generally analyze your user behavior extensively when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners). Visiting our social media presences triggers numerous processing operations relevant to data protection. In detail:

If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected under certain circumstances if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In this case, this data collection takes place, for example, via cookies that are stored on your end device or by recording your IP address.

With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, you can be shown interest-based advertising inside and outside the respective social media presence. Provided you have an account with the respective social network, the interest-based advertising may be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.

Please also note that we cannot track all processing on the social media portals. Depending on the provider, further processing operations may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. For details, please refer to the terms of use and data protection provisions of the respective social media portals.

Legal basis

Our social media presences are intended to ensure the most comprehensive presence possible on the Internet. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on deviating legal bases to be specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO).

Responsible party and assertion of rights

If you visit one of our social media sites (e.g. Facebook), we are jointly responsible with the operator of the social media 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) both vis-à-vis us and vis-à-vis the operator of the respective social media portal (e.g. vis-à-vis Facebook).

Please note that despite the joint responsibility with the social media portal operators, we do not have full influence on the data processing operations of the social media portals. Our options are largely determined by the corporate policy of the respective provider.

Storage period

The data collected directly by us via the social media presence will be deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose for storing it no longer applies, you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your terminal device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

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

We collect, process and use personal data only to the extent that they are necessary for the establishment, content or modification of the legal relationship (inventory data). This is done on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO, which permits the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures. We collect, process and use personal data about the use of this website (usage data) only to the extent necessary to enable the user to use the service or to bill the user.

The collected customer data will be deleted after completion of the order or termination of the business relationship. Legal retention periods remain unaffected.

Handling of applicant data

We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by e-mail, by post or via an online application form). In the following, we inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected during the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing and use of your data will be carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other statutory provisions and that your data will be treated in strict confidence.

Scope and purpose of data collection

When you send us an application, we process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary to decide whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG-neu under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO (general contract initiation) and - if you have given your consent - Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. The consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to persons involved in processing your application.

If the application is successful, the data you submitted will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 BDSG-neu and Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship.

Retention period of the data

If we are unable to make you a job offer, if you reject a job offer or if you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to store the data you have submitted with us on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). Subsequently, the data will be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. This storage serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is apparent that the data will be required after the 6-month period has expired (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), the data will not be deleted until the purpose for continued storage no longer applies.

Longer storage may also take place if you have given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO) or if legal storage obligations prevent deletion.
