Definitions

Our privacy policy is intended to be simple and understandable for everyone. In this privacy policy, the official terms of the General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) are generally used. The official definitions are explained in Art. 4 DSGVO.

Server-Logfiles

When you call up our website, it is technically necessary for data to be transmitted to our web server via your Internet browser. The following data is recorded during an ongoing connection for communication between your internet browser and our web server:

  • Date and time of the request
  • Name of the requested file
  • Page from which the file was requested
  • Access status
  • Web browser and operating system used
  • (Complete) IP address of the requesting computer
  • Amount of data transferred

We collect the listed data to ensure a smooth connection setup of the website and to enable a comfortable use of our website by the users. In addition, the log file is used to evaluate system security and stability as well as for administrative purposes. The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data or the log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. For reasons of technical security, in particular to defend against attempted attacks on our web server, we store this data for a short time. Based on this data, it is not possible for us to draw conclusions about individual persons. After 7 days at the latest, the data is anonymized by shortening the IP address at domain level, so that it is no longer possible to establish a link to the individual user. In addition, the data is processed in anonymized form for statistical purposes, if necessary. This data is never stored together with other personal data of the user, compared with other data or passed on to third parties.

Cookies

Our website uses so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small text files that are stored either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your terminal device. Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them yourself or an automatic solution is provided by your web browser. Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g. the shopping cart function or language settings). Other cookies are used to evaluate user behavior or display advertising. Technically necessary cookies are stored on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. We have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of our services. Other cookies are only stored with your consent on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. The consent can be revoked at any time for the future. The legal basis may also arise from Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO if the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, or for the performance of pre-contractual measures taken at the request of the data subject. Insofar as cookies are used for analysis purposes, we will inform you separately about this within the scope of this data protection declaration and obtain your consent. You can set your browser so that you

  • under the following links for the respective browsers:
  • Allow cookies only in individual cases,
  • exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general,
  • enable automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser.

Cookie settings can be managed under the following links for the respective browsers:

You can also manage cookies of many companies and functions used for advertising individually. To do this, use the corresponding user tools, available at https://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices.

Most browsers also offer a so-called “do-not-track” function. When this function is activated, the respective browser tells advertising networks, websites and applications that you do not want to be “tracked” for the purpose of behavior-based advertising and the like. You can get information and instructions on how to edit this feature, depending on your browser provider, from the links below:

Additionally, you can prevent loading of so-called scripts by default. “NoScript” allows JavaScripts, Java and other plug-ins to run only on trusted domains of your choice. Information and instructions on how to edit this function can be obtained from the provider of your browser (e.g. for Mozilla Firefox at: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/noscript/).

Please note that if you disable cookies, the functionality of our website may be limited.

WP Cerber Security, Antispam & Malware Scan Plugin

We use the “Cerber Security & Antispam” service provided by Cerber Tech Inc. New York, NY, 1732 1st Ave, 10128, USA. The hacker protection plugin blocks intruders via IP or subnet and protects against further attempts when a set limit of retries is reached. This makes brute force attacks or distributed brute force attacks from botnets impossible. In addition, it is possible to block or allow logins from specific IP addresses by creating an IP blacklist or whitelist. (More information on the functions at: https://wpcerber.com/). According to the provider, no data is collected or processed in this context – neither by the services nor by the software offered.

Newsletter

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website with regular information about our offers and products, we require your e-mail as mandatory information. Additional data may be required in order to address you personally in the newsletter and/or to identify you if you wish to exercise your rights as a data subject. We use the so-called double opt-in procedure for sending the newsletter. This means that we will only send you our newsletter by e-mail if you have expressly confirmed that you consent to the sending of newsletters. In the first step, you will receive an e-mail with a link that you can use to confirm that you, as the owner of the corresponding e-mail address, want to receive newsletters in the future. With the confirmation, you give us your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO that we may use your personal data for the purpose of sending the desired newsletter. When registering for the newsletter, we store, in addition to the e-mail address required for sending, the IP address through which you registered for the newsletter, as well as the date and time of registration and confirmation, in order to be able to track possible misuse at a later date. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time via the link included in each newsletter or by sending an e-mail to the responsible person named above. After unsubscribing, your e-mail address will be deleted from our newsletter distribution list immediately, unless you have expressly consented to the continued use of the collected data or the continued processing is otherwise permitted by law. Our e-mail newsletters are sent via a technical service provider to whom we pass on the data you provided when registering for the newsletter. We have concluded an order processing contract with our e-mail service provider, in which we oblige him to protect our customers’ data and not to pass it on to third parties.

The transmission of personal data via the web form is exclusively encrypted. If you take advantage of this option, the data entered in the input mask will be transmitted to us and stored.

As a matter of principle, your personal data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. The personal data collected for the purpose of obtaining an offer will be deleted as soon as the offer has been sent and a timely telephone contact with you has taken place or was unsuccessful. Continued processing only takes place if it is necessary in the context of a resulting initiation and execution of a contract or for the fulfillment of resulting contractual purposes.

Sending job applications

If you apply to us via our contact form or by e-mail, we collect personal data. This includes, in particular, your contact data (such as first and last name, telephone number and e-mail address of the user) as well as other data provided by you regarding your career (e.g., resume, qualifications, degrees and work experience) and your person (e.g., cover letter, personal interests). This may also include special categories of personal data (e.g. information on a severe disability). As a rule, your personal data is collected directly from you as part of the application process and encrypted during electronic transmission. The primary legal basis for this is Article 6 (1) b DSGVO in conjunction with Section 26 (1) BDSG. In addition, consent pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a, 7 DS-GVO in conjunction with § 26 Para. 2 BDSG can be used as a data protection permission provision. If the processing of your data is based on consent, you have the right to revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future.

The data of selected applicants will be stored securely for up to 2 years, provided that the applicants have given their consent to this in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. An informal e-mail to the contact details of the responsible person listed above is sufficient for this purpose.

Analysis and tracking tools

Google Analytics

Our website uses Google Analytics, an internet analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies” and web beacons. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website and compiling reports on website activity. Google will also use this information to provide the website operator with other services related to the use of the website and the Internet. The IP address sent by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with other data from Google. The processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO on the basis of the consent given by you. We use Google Analytics only with IP anonymization enabled. This means that your IP address is only processed by Google in a shortened form. We have concluded an order processing agreement with the service provider in which we oblige it to protect our customers’ data and not to pass it on to third parties. Since a transfer of personal data to the USA takes place, further protection mechanisms are required to ensure the level of data protection of the GDPR. To ensure this, we have agreed standard data protection clauses with the provider in accordance with Art. 46 (2) lit. c DSGVO. These oblige the recipient of the data in the USA to process the data in accordance with the level of protection in Europe. In cases where this cannot be ensured even by this contractual extension, we endeavor to obtain additional regulations and commitments from the recipient in the USA. The terms of use of Google Analytics and information on data protection can be accessed via the following links: http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/

http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html

https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Deletion of user-level and event-level data associated with cookies, user identifiers (e.g., User ID), and advertising IDs (e.g., DoubleClick cookies, Android advertising ID, IDFA [Apple-Kennung für Werbetreibende]) occurs no later than 14 months after collection.

You can prevent cookies from being stored by adjusting the settings of your browser software accordingly. However, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website without restrictions. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and from analyzing your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/.

Hotjar

Our website uses the Hotjar web analytics service provided by Hotjar Ltd. Hotjar Ltd. is a European company based in Malta (Hotjar Ltd, Level 2, St Julians Business Centre, 3, Elia Zammit Street, St Julians STJ 1000, Malta, Europe, Tel.: +1 (855) 464-6788). This tool can be used to track movements on the websites on which Hotjar is used (so-called heat maps). For example, it is possible to see how far users scroll and how often they click on which buttons. The tool also makes it possible to obtain feedback directly from website users. Most importantly, Hotjar’s services can improve the functionality of the Hotjar-based website by making it more user-friendly, more valuable, and easier to use for end users. We take special care to protect your personal data when using this tool. For example, we can only track which buttons are clicked, mouse history, how far scrolled, device screen size, device type and browser information, geographic location (country only) and preferred language to display our website. Areas of the websites in which personal data of you or third parties are displayed are automatically hidden by Hotjar and are therefore not traceable at any time. In order to exclude a direct personal reference, IP addresses are only stored and processed anonymously. However, Hotjar uses various third-party services such as Google Analytics and Optimizely. It may therefore be the case that these services collect data transmitted by your browser as part of web page requests. This would be, for example, cookies or your IP address. In these exceptional cases, this processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO on the basis of the consent you have given for the purpose of statistical analysis of user behavior for optimization and marketing purposes. Hotjar offers each user the option of using a “Do Not Track header” to prevent the use of the Hotjar tool so that no data about the visit to the respective website is recorded. This is a setting that all common browsers support in current versions. For this purpose, your browser sends a request to Hotjar with the instruction to deactivate the tracking of the respective user. If you use our websites with different browsers/computers, you will have to set up the “Do Not Track header” separately for each of these browsers/computers. When visiting a Hotjar-based website, you can prevent the collection of your data by Hotjar at any time by going to our opt-out page https://www.hotjar.com/policies/do-not-track/ and disabling Hotjar Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

If your contact via a social network or other platform aims at the conclusion of a contract for the delivery of goods or the provision of services with us, we process your data for the performance of the contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures or for the provision of the requested services. The legal basis for the processing of your data in this case is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO. Your data will be deleted if it is no longer required for the performance of the contract or if it is determined that the pre-contractual measures do not lead to the conclusion of a contract corresponding to the purpose of the contact. Please note, however, that it may be necessary to store personal data of our contractual partners even after the conclusion of the contract in order to comply with contractual or legal obligations.

Datenverarbeitung aufgrund Einwilligung

If you are asked by the respective providers of the platforms for consent to processing for a specific purpose, the legal basis of the processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. a., Art. 7 DSGVO. Consent given can be revoked at any time with effect for the future.
