Privacy Statement

We are very pleased by your interest in our company. Data protection has a particularly high place value for the General Management of LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG. A use of the websites of LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG is fundamentally possible without the provision of personal data. Insofar as an affected person would like to use special services of our company through our websites, however, the processing of personal data may become necessary. If the processing of personal data is required and no legal basis exists for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the affected person.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address or telephone number of an affected person is always in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation and the country-specific data protection provisions valid for LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG. By means of this privacy statement, our company would like to provide the general public with information on the type, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, affected persons are informed of the rights due to them by means of this privacy statement.

As the party responsible for the processing data, LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to guarantee the most gap-free protection possible of the personal data processed by this website. Internet-based data transfer can still fundamentally have security gaps, which means that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every affected person may provide us with personal data using alternative methods, such as by telephone.

1. Definition of terms

The privacy statement of LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG is based on terminology used by the European directive-issuing and regulatory authority in the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

To guarantee this ease of reading and understanding, we would like to explain the terms used in advance.

In this privacy statement, we use the following terms, among others:

1.     Personal data

Personal data is all information that refers to an identified or identifiable natural person ("affected person" hereinafter). A natural person is considered to be identifiable who can be directly or indirectly identified by means of an allocation to identifiers such as a name, to a code number, to location data, to an online code or to one or more special features that are the expression of the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economical, cultural or social identity of this natural person.

1.     Affected person

An affected person is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the party responsible for the processing.

1.     Processing

Processing constitutes any procedure or series of procedure performed with or without the help of automated methods in connection with personal data, such as collection, recording, organisation, ordering, saving, adaptation or modification, readout, querying, use, disclosure through transmission, distribution or another form of provision, comparison or linking, limitation, deletion or destruction.

1.     Limitation of processing

The limitation of processing is the selection of saved personal data with the objective of limiting their future processing.

1.     Profiling

Profiling is all kinds of the automatic processing of personal data that consists of the use of this personal data to evaluate, analyse or predict certain personal aspects that refer to a natural person, especially aspects regarding work performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or changes of location of this natural person.

1.      Pseudonymisation

Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be allocated to a specific affected person without additional information insofar as this additional information is stored separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures that guarantee that the personal data cannot be allocated to an identified or identifiable natural person.

1.     Responsible party or party responsible for data processing

The responsible party or party responsible for data processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, institution or other body that decides solely or together with others on the purposes and means of processing personal data.

A processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, institution or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the responsible party.

1.     Recipient

A recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, institution or other body to which personal data is disclosed independently of whether it is a third party. Public authorities that possibly receive personal data within the scope of a certain investigation commission according to the law of the European Union or a member state are not considered to be the recipient.

1.     Third party

A third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, institution or other body except for the affected person, the responsible part, the processor and the persons who are authorised to process the personal data under the direct responsibility of the responsible party or processor.

1.     Consent

4. Cookies

The websites of LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored and saved on a computer system by the Internet browser.

Numerous websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a character sequence through which websites and servers can be allocated to the concrete browser in which the cookie was saved. In this way, the visited websites and servers can differentiate the individual browser of the affected person from other browsers containing other cookies. A certain browser can be recognised and identified using the unique cookie ID.

Using cookies, LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG can provide the users of this website user-friendly services that would not be possible without setting cookies.

Using a cookie, the information and offerings of our website can be customised to the user. As mentioned above, cookies let us recognise the visitors of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to simplify the use of our website for visitors. The user of a website that uses cookies does not have to enter his or her access data again at every visit to the website because this information is assumed on the website and on the cookie stored on the computer system of the user. A further example is the cookie for a shopping basket in the online shop. By means of a cookie, the online shop notices the article that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping basket.

The affected person can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time through a corresponding setting in the browser used and permanently object to the setting of cookies in this way. Furthermore, previously set cookies can be deleted at any time through a browser or other software programs. This function is possible in all common browsers. If the affected person deactivates the setting of cookies in the browser used, not all functions of our website will be usable to the full extent.

5. Collection of general data and information

Each time it is opened by an affected person or automated system, the website of LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG collects a variety of general data and information. This general data and information are saved in the log files of the server. The following information can be collected: (1) the browser types and version used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the subsites on our website targeted by an accessing system, (5) the date and time of the access of our website, (6) the IP (Internet Protocol) address, (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information used to avert risks in case of attacks on our IT systems.

During the use of this general data and information, LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG does not make any inferences about the affected person. This information is rather required for the following reasons: (1) to correctly provide the content of our website, (2) to optimise the content of our website and the advertising for this content, (3) to guarantee the constant functionality of our IT systems and the technology of our website and (4) to provide law enforcement authorities with any information required for prosecution. This anonymously collected data and information are therefore evaluated by LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG statically on the one and, furthermore, with the objective of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately guarantee an optimum level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files is saved separately from all personal data provided by the affected person.

6. Registration on our website

The affected person can register on the website of the party responsible for processing, entering personal data in the process. The personal data to be sent to the party responsible for processing in this case is determined by the respective entry screen used for registration. The personal data entered by the affected person is collected and saved only for internal use by the party responsible for processing and its own purposes. The party responsible for processing can pass on the data to one or more processors, such as a parcel service, which also uses the personal data for internal purposes only, which is attributed to the party responsible for processing.

By registering on the website of the party responsible for process, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) of the affected person and the date and time of registration are saved. This data is saved before the background that the misuse of our services can be prevented only in this way and this data would make it possible to clear up any criminal offences committed if pertinent. In this context, the saving of this data is required only for the safeguarding of the party responsible for processing. This data is fundamentally not passed on to third parties if no legal obligation for passing on this data exists or if this data must be passed on for law enforcement purposes.

The registration of the affected person with the voluntary entry of personal data is used by the party responsible for processing to offer the affected person content or services that can be offered only to registered users due to the very nature of the matter. Registered persons have the possibility – at any time – to change the personal data entered at registration or to have this data deleted completely from the database of the party responsible for processing.

The party responsible for processing provides all affected persons with information on which personal data of this person is stored upon request at any time. Furthermore, the party responsible for processing corrects or deleted the personal data upon the desire or notice of the affected person insofar as no legal retention periods conflict. All employees of the party responsible for process are available to the affected person as contact persons in this context.

7. Subscription to our newsletter

On the website of LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG, the user has the possibility to subscribe to the newsletter of our company. The personal data to be sent to the party responsible for processing in this case for subscribing to the newsletter is determined by the respective entry screen used for this purpose.

LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG informs its customers and business partners about the offerings of the company at regular intervals using a newsletter. The newsletter of our company can fundamentally be received by the affected person only if (1) the affected person has a valid e-mail address and (2) the affected person has subscribed to the newsletter. For legal reasons, a confirmation e-mail is sent in a double opt-in procedure is sent to e-mail entered for the newsletter subscription by the affected person for the first time. This confirmation e-mail is used to check whether the owner of the e-mail address has authorised the receipt of the newsletter as the affected person.

When the affected person subscribes to the newsletter, we also save the IP address of the computer system affected person at the point in time of the registration for the newsletter assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) and the date and time of the registration. The collection of this data is required to determine whether the e-mail address of an affected person is (possibly) being misused and is therefore used for the legal safeguarding of the party responsible for processing.

The personal data collected within the scope of a subscription to a newsletter is used only for sending our newsletter. Furthermore, subscribers to the newsletter can be informed by e-mail as to whether this is required for the operation of the newsletter service or the registration for this service as could be the case with changes in the newsletter offering or in the technical circumstances. The personal data collected within the scope of the newsletter service is not passed on to third parties. The affected person can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time. Any consent to save personal data that the affected person has granted to us can be revoked at any time. A corresponding link for the revocation of consent can be found in each newsletter. Furthermore, it is possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time directly on the website of the party responsible for processing or to inform the party responsible for processing in another way.
 

8. Newsletter-Tracking

The newsletters of LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG contain so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic sent in HTML format to enable a log file recording and log file analysis. In this way, a static analysis of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns can be performed. Using the embedded tracking pixel, LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG can recognise whether and when an e-mail has been opened by an affected person and which links in the e-mail are opened by the affected person.

Personal data collected through the tracking pixels in the newsletter are saved and evaluated by the party responsible for processing to optimize the sending of the newsletter and adapt the content of future newsletters even better to the interests of the affected person. This personal data is not passed on to third parties. Affected persons are authorised to revoke any separate declarations of consent given through the double opt-in procedure at any time. After revocation, this personal data is deleted by the party responsible for processing. An unsubscription from the newsletter is automatically considered to be a revocation by LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG.

9. Possibility of contact through the website

Based on legal regulations, the website of LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG contains information that permits fast electronic establishment of contact to and direct communication with our company, which also comprises a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If an affected person establishes contact with the party responsible for processing by e-mail or a contact form, the personal data sent by the affected person is saved automatically. Such personal information sent by an affected person to the party responsible for processing on a voluntary basis is saved for the purpose of the processing or establishment of contact with the affected person. This personal data is not passed on to third parties.

10. Routine deletion and blocking of personal data

The party responsible for processing processes and saves personal data of the affected person only for the time period required for the achievement of the storage purpose and insofar as provided for by the European directive-issuing and regulatory authority or another legislative body in laws or regulations, to which the party responsible for processing is subject.

If the storage purpose is no longer applicable or another storage period required by the European directive-issuing and regulatory authority or other legislative body, the personal data is routinely blocked or deleted according to legal regulations.

If (1) the decision is required for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract between the affected person and the responsible part or (2) the decision is taken with the express consent of the affected person, LAMTEC Meß- und Regeltechnik für Feuerungen GmbH & Co. KG takes appropriate measures to safeguard the legitimate interests of the affected person, which, at minimum, includes the right of obtaining the intervention of a representative of the responsible party, of presenting the responsible party's own standpoint and of disputing the decision.

12. Data protection for application and in the application process

The party responsible for processing collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of settling the application process. Processing can take place by electronic means. This is especially the case when an applicant sends corresponding application documents to the party responsible for processing by electronic means for example by e-mail or by a web form located on the website. If the party responsible for processing concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the data sent for the purpose of settling the employment relationship are saved under observance of the legal regulations. If no employment contract is concluded with the applicant by the party responsible for processing, the application documents are deleted automatically two months after the notification of the rejection decision insofar as no other legitimate interests of the party responsible for processing stand in the way of a deletion. Such legitimate interests in this context, for example, include the burden of proof in court proceedings according to the German General Equal Treatment Act (Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz (AGG)).

a.      „Transmission of application documents“

In the course of your written application, including online application, your application data will be collected and processed in the manner permitted by DS-GVO. This includes in particular your:

Contact information (family name/first name, date and place of birth, address, telephone number, e-mail etc.) and application documents (letter of application, curriculum vitae, certificates, other evidence of training and qualifications etc.).

The collection and processing of your personal application data is exclusively for the purpose of filling positions within our practice. As a matter of principle, your data will only be forwarded to the internal offices and specialist departments of our company responsible for the specific application procedure. This is necessary for the implementation of your possible employment relationship in our company. Your personal application data will not be passed on to other practices/companies without your express prior consent. Your application data will not be used for any other purpose or passed on to third parties. Your personal application data will be deleted automatically six months after completion of the application process. This does not apply if statutory provisions prevent deletion, if further storage is necessary for the purpose of presenting evidence or if you have expressly consented to longer storage, e.g. for future job advertisements. If an employment contract is concluded with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored and processed for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions.

13. Privacy policy for the use and application of Google Analytics (with anonymisation function)

The party responsible for processing has integrated the component Google Analytics (with anonymisation function) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analysis service. Web analysis is the collection and evaluation of data regarding the behaviour of visitors to websites. Among other things, a web analysis service collects data on the website from which an affected person reached a website (so-called referrers), which subsites of the website were accessed or how often and for which duration a subsite was viewed. A web analysis is used mainly for the optimisation of a website and for the cost-benefit analysis of Internet advertising.

The operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

The party responsible for processing uses the affix "_gat._anonymizeIp" for web analysis through Google Analytics. Using this affix, the IP address of the Internet connection of the affected person is shortened and anonymised by Google if the access to our websites comes from a member states of the European Union or from another contracting state of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is the analysis of the number of visitors to our website. Among other things, Google uses the data and information collected to evaluate the utilisation of our website, to compile online reports that describe the activities on our websites and to render further services connected to the utilization of our website.

Google Analytics sets a cookie on the IT system of the affected person. We have already described what cookies are above. By setting this cookie, Google enables an analysis of the use of our website. Through each call of an individual page on this website, which is operated by the party responsible for processing and into which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, the Google Analytics component automatically tells the browser on the IT system of the affected person to transfer data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. Within the scope of this technical procedure, Google obtains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the affected person, which, among other things, Google uses to track the origin of the visitors and clicks and enable bonus settlements as a result.

Using the cookie, personal information such as the access time location from which the access came and the frequency of the visits to our website by the affected person are saved. At each visit to our websites, this personal data, including the IP address of the Internet connection used by the affected person is transferred to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google possibly passes on this personal data collected through technical means to third parties.

The affected person can prevent the setting of cookies by our website as already described above by means of a corresponding setting of the browser used and therefore permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the IT system of the affected person. In addition, a cookie previously set by Google Analytics can be deleted by the browser or other software programs at any time.

Furthermore, the affected person has the possibility to object to and prevent a collection of the data on the usage of this website generated by Google Analytics and the processing of this data by Google. To do so the affected person must download and install a browser add-on found under the link tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. This browser add-on informs Google Analytics through JavaScript that no data and information about the visits to websites may be sent to Google Analytics. Google classifies the installation of the browser add-on as an objection. If the IT system of the affected person is deleted, formatted or reinstalled at a later point in time, the affected person must reinstall the browser add-on to deactivate Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is deinstalled or deactivated by the affected person or another person with the authority to do so, the browser add-on can be reinstalled or reactivated.

14. Privacy policy for the use and application of Google AdWords

The party responsible for processing has integrated the component Google AdWords on this website. Google AdWords is a service for Internet advertising that lets advertisers place ads in the search engine results of Google and in the Google advertising network. Google AdWords lets an advertiser define certain keywords in advance by means of which an ad will appear in the search engine results of Google only if a user calls a keyword-relevant search result with the search engine. In the Google advertising network, the ads as distributed on topic-related websites using an automatic algorithm under consideration of the previously defined keywords.

The operating company of the Google AdWords component is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

The purpose of Google AdWords is the advertising our website through the display of interest-relevant advertising on the websites by third-party companies and in the search engine results of the Google search engine and a display of external advertising on our website.

If an affected person finds our website through a Google ad, Google saves a so-called conversion cookie on the IT system of the affected person. We have already described what cookies are above. A conversion cookie loses its validity after 30 days and is not used to identify the affected person. Insofar as it has not yet expired, the conversion cookie is used to track whether certain subsites on our website are called, such as the shopping card of an online shop system. Using the conversion cookie, both Google and our company can track whether an affected person who accessed our website through an AdWords ad generates a sale, i.e., whether they have completed or interrupted a purchase.

The data and information collected through the use of the conversion cookie are used by Google to create visit statistics for our website. We in Turn use these visit statistics to determine the total number of users who were sent to our site through AdWords ads, i.e., to determine the success or failure of the respective AdWords ad and to optimise our AdWords ads for the future. Neither our company nor other advertising customers of Google AdWords receive information from Google by means of which the affected person can be identified.

Personal information, such as the websites visited by the affected person, is saved using the conversion cookie. At each visit to our websites, personal data, including the IP address of the Internet connection used by the affected person, is sent to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google possibly passes on this personal data collected through technical means to third parties.

The affected person can prevent the setting of cookies by our website as already described above by means of a corresponding setting of the browser used and therefore permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the browser used would also prevent Google from setting a conversion cookie on the IT system of the affected person. In addition, a cookie previously set by Google AdWords can be deleted by the browser or other software programs at any time.

Furthermore, the affected person has the opportunity to object to interest-related advertising through Google. For this purpose, the affected person must call the link adssettings.google.com/authenticated from each browser used and make the desired settings there.

For each individual call of our website equipped with a LinkedIn component (LinkedIn plug-in), this component initiates the download of a corresponding view of the LinkedIn component by the browser used by the affected person. Additional information on the LinkedIn plug-in can be found under developer.linkedin.com/plugins. Within the scope of this technical procedure, LinkedIn obtains information on which concrete subsites of our website are visited by the affected person.

Insofar as the affected person is logged in to LinkedIn while visiting our website, LinkedIn notices which concrete subsites of our website are being visited by the affected person with each call of our website by the affected person and throughout the entire duration for which the affected person remains on our website. This information is collected by the LinkedIn component and allocated to the LinkedIn account of the affected person by LinkedIn. If the affected person actuates on of the LinkedIn buttons integrated into our website, LinkedIn allocates this information to the personal LinkedIn user account of the affected person and saves this personal data.

Through the LinkedIn component, LinkedIn obtains information that the affected person has visited our website when the affected person is logged into LinkedIn at the same time that he or she visited our website, independently of whether the affected person has clicked the LinkedIn component. If such a transmission of this information to LinkedIn is not desired by the affected person, the affected person can prevent this transmission by logging out of his or her LinkedIn account before visiting our website.

The cookie guidelines of LinkedIn can be found under www.linkedin.com/legal/cookie-policy.

16. Privacy policy for the use and application of YouTube

The party responsible for processing has integrated components of the YouTube on this website. YouTube is an Internet video portal that lets video publishers create video clips so that other users can then view, evaluate and comment on these videos free of cost. YouTube allows the publication of all kinds of videos, which means a wide range of material, from complete films and TV shows, music videos, trailers and videos created by the users themselves can be viewed through the Internet portal.

The operator of YouTube is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. YouTube, LLC, is a subsidiary of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

Through each call of an individual page on this website, which is operated by the party responsible for processing and into which a YouTube component (YouTube video) has been integrated, the YouTube component automatically tells the browser on the IT system of the affected person to download a view of the corresponding YouTube component from YouTube. Additional information on the YouTube can be found under www.youtube.com/intl/en-GB/yt/about/. Within the scope of this technical procedure, YouTube and Google obtain information on which concrete subsites of our website are visited by the affected person.

Insofar as the affected person is logged in to YouTube while visiting our website, YouTube notices which concrete subsite of our website is being visited by the affected person with each call of a subsite containing a YouTube video. This information is collected by the YouTube and Google component and allocated to the YouTube account of the affected person.

Through the YouTube component, YouTube and Google obtain information that the affected person has visited our website when the affected person is logged into YouTube at the same time that he or she visited our website, independently of whether the affected person has clicked a YouTube video. If such a transmission of this information to YouTube and Google is not desired by the affected person, the affected person can prevent this transmission by logging out of his or her YouTube account before visiting our website.

The privacy policy of YouTube, located under policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en&gl=en, provides information on the collection, processing and use of personal data by YouTube and Google.

17. Legal basis of processing

Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. a GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for processing procedures for which we obtain consent for a certain processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is required for the fulfilment of a contract whose contracting party is the affected person, as is usually the case with processing procedures needed for the delivery of goods or the rendering of other services or return services, this processing takes place on the basis of Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing procedures required for the execution of precontractual measures, for example, in the case of inquiries regarding our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation that demands the processing of personal data, for example, to fulfil tax obligations, this processing takes place on the basis of Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be required to protect vital interests of the affected person or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor is injured at our company and his or her name, age, health insurance information or other vital information must be provided to a doctor, hospital or other third parties. Such processing would then take place on the basis of Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. d GDPR. Finally, processing procedures could take place on the basis of Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. f GDPR. This legal basis also applies for processing procedures that are covered by none of the abovementioned legal bases if the processing is for the safeguarding of a legitimate interest of our company or a third party insofar as the interests, basic rights and basic freedoms of the affected person do not have priority. We are authorized to perform such processing procedures especially if they have been particularly specified by European legislatory body. This legislatory body is of the opinion that a legitimate interest can be assumed if the affected person is a customer of the responsible party (Recital 47 Section 2 GDPR).

18. Legitimate interest in processing pursued by the responsible party or a third party

If the processing of personal data is based on Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is the execution of our business activities for the wellbeing of all our employees and shareholders.

19. Duration for which the personal data is stored

The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the pertinent legal retention period. Once this period has expired, the corresponding data is deleted insofar as it is no longer required for the fulfilment or initiation of a contract.

20. Legal or contractual regulations 

regarding the provision of personal data; requirement for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the affected person to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision

We explain to the affected person that the provision of personal data is legally required on the one hand (e.g., tax regulations) or arises from contractual regulations (e.g., information on the contracting partner). Occasionally, the conclusion of a contract may require an affected person to provide us with personal data that we must then process. The affected person, for example, is obliged to provide us with personal information when our company concludes a contract with this person. A non-provision of personal data results in the contract with the affected person not being able to be concluded. Before a provision of personal data by the affected person, the affected person must contact one of our employees. Our employee clarifies with the affected person in regard to the individual case as to whether the provision of personal data is legally or contractually required or necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether the affected person is obligated to provide personal data and which consequences the non-provision of the personal data has.

21. Existence of an automatic decision-making procedure

As a conscientious company, we do without an automatic decision-making procedure or profiling.

This privacy statement was created using the privacy statement generator of DGD Deutsche Gesellschaft für Datenschutz GmbH, which operates as External Data Protection Officer Straubing in cooperation with attorney for data protection law Christian Solmecke.

5.     To whom is my data disclosed?
To so-called processors, these are companies engaged by us within the confines of law to process data, Art. 28 GDPR (service providers, vicarious agents). In this case we will remain responsible for the protection of your data. We engage companies in particular in the following areas: IT, Sales, Marketing and Customer Service.

6.    Where is my data processed?
Your data is processed essentially in Germany and if necessary in Europe. If your data is processed in exceptional cases in countries outside of the European Union (therefore in so-called third countries), this will happen if you have explicitly consented to this, if it is necessary for our performance for you or if it is required by law (Art. 49 GDPR). In addition, your data will only be processed in third countries if it is guaranteed by specific measures that there is an adequate level of data protection for this (e.g. adequacy decision by the EU Commission or so-called appropriate guarantees, Art. 44ff. GDPR).

7.    What data is collected, how is this processed and how long is it held?
When you use the App, our servers temporarily record the IP address of your (IT) device and other technical features, such as the requested content (Art. 6 (1) b GDPR).
 
8.    Will I receive push notifications?
a)    Push notifications are messages sent by the App to the (IT) device and displayed on the device with priority. This App uses push notifications as default, if you have consented to these when installing or first using the App or unless these settings are configured otherwise in your operating system (Art. 6 (1) a GDPR). You can deactivate the receipt of push notifications at any time in the settings of your (IT) device.

b)    In order for you to be able to use the App on the (IT) device, the App needs access to various functions and data on the device. For this purpose, it is necessary that certain permissions are given (Art. 6 (1) a GDPR). The permission categories differ depending on the manufacturer. For example, individual Android permissions are consolidated into permission categories and you can only consent to the permission category as a whole. Please note that if you object, you may not be able to use some of the functions of our App.  
 
9.    Is there any advertising or tracking and will my usage behaviour by analysed?
a)    We would like you to enjoy using our App and take advantage of our products and services. We have an economic interest in this. In order for you to easily find the products that interest you and to enable us to design our App in a user-friendly manner, we analyse your usage behaviour in an anonymised and/or pseudonymised form. Within the confines of law, we, or companies engaged by us as processors, create user profiles. They cannot be used to identify you directly. In the following we provide you with general information about the various purposes and technologies of our App and its usage. You have, of course, as explained above, the right to object. Please note that in this case, you may not be able to use some of the functions of our App

b)    Purposes (Art. 6 (1) a, b, f GDPR / section 15 (3) of the German Telemedia Act (TMG))

(1)    Tag management:

Tag management is used to manage tracking tools in apps. For this purpose, every page is tagged. With the help of the tag, it can be decided what tracking tools should be used for this page. By means of tag management, the tracking can therefore be controlled so that the tools are only used where they make sense.

(2)    Reach measurement:

The purpose of reach measurement is to determine statistically the usage intensity and number of users of an app and to measure the quality of the app. At no time are individual users identified. Your identity is protected at all times.
 
(3)    Profiles for customised design of the App:

In order to continually improve the App, we use so-called clickstream analysis. The clickstream is the path you have followed in the App. The analysis of the click paths provides information on usage behaviour with the App. This allows us to identify possible structural defects in the App and in doing so improve the App so that it better meets your needs. At no time are individual users identified.

(4)    Profiles to improve the technological quality of the App:

In order to measure the quality of an app’s programming or register crashes and their cause, programme sequence and usage behaviour are analysed. Individual users are not identified.
 
(5)    Profiles to create an interests profile:

Marketing technologies are used in order to display interesting advertising content and to measure the effectiveness of our campaigns. This can also take place on the pages of other advertising partners (of third-party providers), also known as retargeting. The retargeting is used to create a pseudonymous interests profile and to display relevant advertising on other websites. It cannot be used to identify a person directly. If marketing technologies are suppressed, you will still see the same number of advertisements, but they will not be tailored to your personal interests.  
 
(6)    Transmission of usage data:

You can object to the collection, processing and use of data using the “Transmit pseudonymous usage data” button at the end of the privacy statement in the App. Please note that if you do this, only the analysis of the usage of this App is deactivated.

(7)    In the App, the transmission of pseudonymous usage data can be objected to at this point.

(8)    This App uses Google Analytics, an analysis service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). The information generated by the service on your use of this App will be transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the USA. At this point we inform you that in this App, a code has been added to Google Analytics / Google Firebase which allows the anonymised collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this App to analyse your use of the App, to compile reports on the website activities and perform further services related to the use of the App and internet for the operator of the App. The IP address transmitted by your device while using Google Analytics will not be combined with other data held by Google.  

This App also uses the Google product Firebase, which collects information used to fix bugs in the App. The selected information does not contain any personal data, only system information such as the version of the App, the operating system used, the screen format and resolution, the system utilisation etc.  Every iOS device has an identifier that can be used by developers and advertisers – the IDFA. Android also uses such an identifier – the AAID. You can reset or deactivate the device’s identifier at any time in the device settings.
