  1. Data use in signing up for email newsletters

On our website, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our company's newsletter. Which personal data are transmitted to the controller upon ordering the newsletter is determined by the input form used for this purpose. We inform our customers and business partners about company offers regularly in a newsletter. Our company newsletter can as a matter of principle only be received by the data subject if (1) the data subject has a valid email address and (2) the data subject registers to receive the newsletter. For legal reasons, a confirmation -mail will be sent to the email address entered by a data subject for the first time for newsletter mailing using the double-opt-in procedure. This confirmation e-mail serves to check whether the owner of the email address has authorised the receipt of the newsletter as the data subject. If you sign up to our newsletter, we use the data that is necessary, or separately provided by you, to send you our email newsletter regularly based on your consent given per Art. 6 Para. 1 p. 1 lit. a GDPR.

When registering for the newsletter, we also store the IP address of the computer system used by the person concerned at the time of registration assigned by the Internet Service Provider (ISP) as well as the date and time of registration. The collection of this data is necessary in order to trace the possible misuse of a data subject's email address at a later point in time and therefore serves the legal protection of the responsible person. The personal data collected in the context of registering for the newsletter will be used exclusively to send our newsletter. In addition, subscribers to the newsletter may be notified by email if this is necessary for operation of the newsletter service or registration, as might be the case in the event of changes to the newsletter or technical changes.

The legal basis for data processing is Article 6 para 1 lit. a. GDPR together with the consent given by you.

The personal data collected in the context of the newsletter service will not be passed on to third parties.

Subscription to our newsletter may be terminated by the data subject at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data, which the person concerned has given us for the newsletter dispatch, can be revoked at any time. You will find a corresponding link in every newsletter for the purpose of revoking your consent. It is also possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time directly on website of the controller, or to inform the controller of this in another way.

After revoking your consent your personal data will be deleted insofar as there is no other legal basis to continue processing. If you withdraw your consent or do not confirm your registration, your data will be deleted immediately, and after 30 days at the latest (possible backups).

  1. Newsletter tracking

Our newsletters receive "tracking pixels". A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in emails that are sent in HTML format to enable recording and analysis of log data.

This allows statistical evaluation of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns. Using the embedded tracking pixel, we can detect whether and when an email was opened by the person in question and which links in the email were accessed by the person in question. Such personal data collected via the tracking pixels in the newsletters is stored and evaluated by the controller for the purpose of optimising dispatch of the newsletter and to adapt the content of future newsletters to the interests of data subjects to an even better degree. The data will not be disclosed to third parties. The data subject is entitled at any time to revoke the separate declaration of consent given via the double opt-in procedure. Once consent is revoked, this personal data will be deleted by the controller. We automatically interpret unsubscribing from receiving the newsletter as a revocation.

  1. It is possible to contact us via the website

Our website contains information that enables quick electronic contact to our enterprise, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address for electronic mail (email address). If a data subject contacts the controller by email or via a contact form, any personal data transmitted by the data subject is stored automatically. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the data controller is stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. We will not pass on this personal information to third parties.

The legal basis for data processing is Article 6 para 1 lit. b. GDPR, if your request relates to the establishment, implementation or termination of the contractual relationship between us an yourself. In any other cases, the legal basis is Article 6 para 1 lit. f. GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in ensuring that contact can be made quickly and easily.

  1. Facebook-, Custom Audiences and Facebook Marketing Services

Within our online offer - provided that you have given us your explicit consent - the so-called "Facebook pixel" of the social network Facebook, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA, or if you are resident in the EU, Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland, is used for the purpose of analysis, optimisation and the economic operation of our online offer.

With the help of the Facebook pixel, Facebook is on the one hand able to determine the visitors of our online offer as a target group for the presentation of ads (so-called "Facebook ads"). Accordingly, we use Facebook pixels to display Facebook ads placed by us only to Facebook users who have shown an interest in our online offering or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products that are determined on the basis of the websites visited) that we transmit to Facebook (so-called "custom audiences").

With the help of Facebook pixels, we also want to ensure that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interest of users and do not appear annoying. Using Facebook pixels, we can also track the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by seeing if users have been referred to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad ("conversion").

After you have given your consent, the Facebook pixel is integrated by Facebook and can store a so-called cookie on your device. If you then log in to Facebook or visit Facebook when logged in, the visit to our online service is noted in your profile. The data collected about you is anonymous to us and therefore does not allow us to draw any conclusions about the identity of the user. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and can be used by Facebook as well as for its own market research and advertising purposes. If we transmit data to Facebook for comparison purposes, this data is encrypted locally on the browser and only then sent to Facebook via a secure https connection. This is done solely for the purpose of matching it with data that is similarly encrypted by Facebook.

Furthermore, when using the Facebook pixel, we use the additional function "extended comparison" where data for the formation of target groups ("Custom Audiences" or "Look Alike Audiences") are transmitted to Facebook in encrypted form. Further information can be found here

https://www.facebook.com/help/794535777607370
 

Facebook processes the data in accordance with the Facebook Data Usage Policy. Specific information and details about Facebook pixels and how they work can be found in the Facebook help section:

https://www.facebook.com/privacy/explanation
https://www.facebook.com/help/
 

The legal basis for data processing is Article 6 para 1 lit. a. GDPR together with the consent given by you. Your consent also relates to the transfer of personal data to a third country (US) (Article 49 para 1 lit. a. GDPR). It should be noted once again that at present neither suitable data protection guarantees nor an adequate level of data protection exist there. In particular, it is possible that US authorities could access personal data.

You can revoke your consent to the collection of your personal data by the Facebook pixel and use of your data to display Facebook ads at any time. To set what types of ads you see within Facebook, you can go to the page set up by Facebook and follow the instructions on how to set up usage-based ads. The settings are platform-independent (desktop or mobile): https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads

A revocation of the consent leaves data processing unaffected until the time of revocation.

Furthermore, the data subject has a right of access to information as to whether personal data has been transferred to a third party or to an international organisation. If this is the case, the data subject, in addition, has the right to obtain information about the appropriate guarantees in connection with the transfer. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to obtain information, they contact any employee of the controller at any time.

Each data subject whose personal data is processed shall have the right granted by the European legislator to request the immediate correction of inaccurate personal data concerning them. Furthermore, taking into account the purposes of the processing, the data subject has the right to request that incomplete personal data be completed, including by means of a supplementary declaration.

If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to rectification, they may contact any employee of the controller at any time.

Each data subject whose personal data is processed shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning them without undue delay, and the controller shall have the obligation to erase this personal data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies and so long as processing is not necessary:

  • The personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
  • the data subject withdraws their consent to the processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR and there is no other legal basis for processing.
  • The data subject makes an objection according to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for continued processing, or the data subject makes an objection to the processing according to Art. 21 para. 2 of the GDPR.
  • The personal data have been unlawfully processed.
  • The personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation under European Union or Member State law to which the data controller is subject.
  • The personal data has been collected in relation to the services offered by the information society according to Art. 8 para. 1 of the GDPR.

If one of the above-mentioned reasons applies and a data subject wishes to have their personal data stored deleted, they may contact our data controller or an employee of the data controller at any time. Our data protection officer or another employee will arrange that the deletion request be fulfilled immediately.

If the personal data has been made public by us and our company is responsible according to Art. 17 para. 1 GDPR for the deletion of personal data, we are obliged to take appropriate measures, also of a technical nature, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, to inform other data processors who process the published personal data that the data subject has requested the deletion of all links to this personal data or of copies or replications of this personal data from these other data processors, insofar as the processing is not necessary. Our data protection officer or another employee will arrange what is necessary in individual cases.

Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to demand that the control restricts processing where one of the following conditions applies:

  • The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the data controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
  • The processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests the restriction of its use instead.
  • The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required to by the data subject for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
  • The data subject has objected to the processing according to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and it is not yet clear whether the entitled parties outweigh the interests of the data controller in relation to those of the data subject.

If any one of the above mentioned conditions is fulfilled and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by the company, they can contact our data controller or an employee of the data controller at any time. Our data controller or another employee will arrange for processing to be restricted.

Each data subject whose personal data is processed shall have the right granted by the European legislator to receive personal data relating to them, and provided by the data subject to a controller, in a structured, current and machine-readable format. They also have the right to transmit this data to another party without hindrance from the data controller to whom the personal data was originally provided, provided that the processing is based on the consent provided for in Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 (a) of the GDPR or on a contract in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR and processing is carried out by means of automated procedures, except where such processing is necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority conferred on the controller.

Furthermore, in exercising their right to data portability according to Art. 20 para. 1 of the GDPR, the data subject has the right to require that the personal data be transmitted directly from one controller to another as far as this is technically feasible and provided that this does not affect the rights and freedoms of others.

To assert the right to data portability, the data subject may contact our data controller or another employee at any time. 

Each data subject whose personal data is processed has the right granted by the European legislator, for reasons arising from their particular situation, to at any time oppose the processing of personal data relating to them which is undertaken on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 1 lit. e or f GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

We will no longer process personal data in the event of an objection, unless we can prove compelling reasons worthy of protection for the processing, which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

If we process personal data in order to carry out direct advertising, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of the personal data for the purpose of such advertising. This also applies to any profiling connected with such direct advertising. If the data subject objects to the company processing for direct advertising purposes, we will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.

In addition, the data subject has the right, for reasons arising from their particular situation, to object to the processing of personal data concerning them for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes at the company in accordance with Art. 89 para. 1 GDPR, unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest.

In order to exercise the right of objection, the data subject may contact our data controller or another employee directly. The data subject shall also be free to exercise their right to objection in relation to the use of information society services by means of automated procedures using technical specifications, Directive 2002/58/EC notwithstanding. Any data subject affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European legislator of directives and regulations, not to be subject to automated processing - including profiling - that has legal effect against you or significantly impairs you in a similar manner, insofar as it

  1. is not necessary for entering into, or for the performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller, or
  2. is authorised by Union or Member State law to which the data controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms of the data subject and legitimate interests or
  3. is made with the express consent of the data subject.

If the decision

  1. is not necessary for entering into, or for the performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller, or
  2. it is carried out with the express consent of the data subject,

we will take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person by the data controller, to state their own position and to challenge the decision.

If the data subject wishes to exercise the rights concerning automated individual decision-making, they may contact an employee of the data controller at any time.

Each data subject whose personal data is processed shall have the right granted by the European legislator to withdraw their consent to the processing of their personal data at any time.

If the data subject wishes to exercise the right to revoke consent, they may contact the data controller or an employee of the data controller at any time.

23. Legal basis of the processing

Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR serves our company as a legal basis for processing operations through which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case for example with processing operations necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing processes that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of enquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, for example to fulfil tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may become necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured at our company and their name, age, health insurance data or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, a hospital or other third parties. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit d GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Processing operations which are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not take priority. We are allowed to carry out such processing procedures because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (recital 47, clause 2, GDPR).

24. Legitimate interests in processing pursued by the controller or by a third party

If the processing of personal data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is to conduct our business for the benefit of all of our employees and our shareholders.
