Data protection is particularly important to the management of B-SAFETY GmbH. The use of the internet pages of the B-SAFETY GmbH is possible without any indication of personal data. However if a data subject wants to use special services of our enterprise via our website processing of personal data could become necessary. If processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such action we will generally obtain the consent of the data subject.<br \/>\nThe processing of personal data such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to the B-SAFETY GmbH. By means of this data protection declaration our company would like to inform the public about the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed of their rights by means of this data protection declaration.<br \/>\nThe B-SAFETY GmbH has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, internet-based data transfers can always be subject to security vulnerabilities, so that an absolute level of protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.<\/p>\n<p>1. definitions<br \/>\nThe data protection declaration of the B-SAFETY GmbH is based on the terms used by the European Directive and Regulation Authorities when issuing the Data Protection Regulation (DS-GVO). Our privacy policy should be easy to read and understand for the public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terminology used in advance.<\/p>\n<p>We use the following terms among others in this data protection declaration:<br \/>\na) personal data<br \/>\nPersonal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter &#8220;data subject&#8221;). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.<\/p>\n<p>b) Data subject<br \/>\nData subject means any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data are processed by the controller.<\/p>\n<p>c) Processing<br \/>\nProcessing means any operation or set of operations which is performed upon personal data, whether or not by automatic means, such as collection, recording, organization, filing, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.<\/p>\n<p>d) Restriction of processing<br \/>\nRestriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their future processing.<\/p>\n<p>e) Profiling<br \/>\nProfiling is any type of automated processing of personal data that consists of using such personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects relating to that natural person&#8217;s job performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location or change of location.<\/p>\n<p>f) Pseudonymization<br \/>\nPseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separate and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.<\/p>\n<p>g) Controller or person responsible for processing.<br \/>\nThe controller or data processor is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its designation may be provided for under Union or Member State law.<\/p>\n<p>h) Processor<br \/>\nProcessor means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the Controller.<\/p>\n<p>i) Recipient<br \/>\nRecipient means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body to whom personal data are disclosed, whether or not a third party. However, public authorities that may receive personal data in the context of a specific investigative task under Union or Member State law shall not be considered as recipients.<\/p>\n<p>j) Third Party<br \/>\nThird party means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor and the persons authorized to process the personal data under the direct responsibility of the controller or the processor.<\/p>\n<p>k) Consent<br \/>\nConsent means any freely given indication of the data subject&#8217;s wishes for the specific case in an informed and unambiguous manner, in the form of a statement or other unambiguous affirmative act by which the data subject signifies his or her agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.<\/p>\n<p>2. name and address of the controller<br \/>\nThe controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation, other data protection laws applicable in the Member States of the European Union and other provisions with data protection character is:<\/p>\n<p>B-SAFETY GmbH<br \/>\nOststrasse 85<br \/>\n22844 Norderstedt<br \/>\nGermany<br \/>\nTel.: +49-40-538092-70<br \/>\nE-Mail: info@b-safety.com<br \/>\nWebsite: www.b-safety.com<\/p>\n<p>3. cookies<br \/>\nThe internet pages of B-SAFETY GmbH use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on a computer system via an internet browser.<br \/>\nNumerous Internet pages 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 string of characters by which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the visited Internet pages and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.<br \/>\nThrough the use of cookies, the B-SAFETY GmbH can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.<br \/>\nBy means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized for the user. Cookies enable us, as already mentioned, to recognize the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For example, the user of a website that uses cookies does not have to re-enter his or her access data each time he or she visits the website, because this is handled by the website and the cookie stored on the user&#8217;s computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online store. The online store remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.<br \/>\nThe data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.<\/p>\n<p>4. collection of general data and information<br \/>\nThe website of the B-SAFETY GmbH collects a series of general data and information with each call-up of the website by a data subject or automated system. This general data and information is stored in the log files of the server. The following data may be collected: (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses our website (so-called referrer), (4) the sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of an access to the website, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information that serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.<br \/>\nWhen using these general data and information, the B-SAFETY GmbH does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed (1) to deliver the contents of our website correctly, (2) to optimize the contents of our website and the advertising for these, (3) to ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. This anonymously collected data and information is therefore evaluated by the B-SAFETY GmbH on one hand, statistically and on the other hand, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, in order to ultimately improve the security of our data.<\/p>\n<p>5. Registration on our website<br \/>\nThe data subject has the possibility to register on the website of the controller by providing personal data. Which personal data is transmitted to the controller in the process results from the respective input mask used for the registration. The personal data entered by the data subject are collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the controller and for its own purposes. The controller may arrange for the data to be transferred to one or more processors, for example a parcel service provider who will also use the personal data exclusively for an internal use attributable to the controller.<br \/>\nBy registering on the website of the controller, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) of the data subject the date as well as the time of registration are also stored. The storage of this data takes place against the background that only in this way can the misuse of our services be prevented and, if necessary, this data makes it possible to clarify committed crimes. In this respect the storage of this data is necessary for the protection of the data controller. As a matter of principle, this data is not passed on to third parties unless there is a legal obligation to pass it on or the passing on serves the purpose of criminal prosecution.<br \/>\nThe registration of the data subject by voluntarily providing personal data serves the purpose of the controller to offer the data subject content or services which, due to the nature of the matter, can only be offered to registered users. Registered persons are free to modify the personal data provided during registration at any time or to have it completely deleted from the data stock of the controller.<br \/>\nThe controller shall provide any data subject at any time upon request with information about what personal data is stored about the data subject. Furthermore, the controller shall correct or delete personal data at the request or indication of the data subject, provided that this does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations. A data protection officer named in this privacy statement and the entire staff of the controller are available to the data subject as contact persons in this context.<\/p>\n<p>6. subscription to our newsletter<br \/>\nOn the website of the B-SAFETY GmbH, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our enterprise&#8217;s newsletter. The personal data transmitted to the controller when the user subscribes to our newsletter will be specified in the input mask used for this purpose.<br \/>\nThe B-SAFETY GmbH informs its customers and business partners at regular intervals by means of a newsletter about enterprise offers. The newsletter of our enterprise can basically only be received by the data subject, if (1) the data subject has a valid e-mail address and (2) the data subject registers for the newsletter mailing. For legal reasons, a confirmation e-mail will be sent to the e-mail address entered by a data subject for the first time for newsletter dispatch using the double opt-in procedure. This confirmation e-mail serves to verify whether the owner of the e-mail address as the data subject has authorized the receipt of the newsletter.<br \/>\nWhen registering for the newsletter, we also store the IP address of the computer system used by the data subject at the time of registration, as 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 be able to trace the (possible) misuse of the e-mail address of a data subject at a later point in time and therefore serves the legal protection of the controller.<br \/>\nThe personal data collected in the context of a registration for the newsletter will be used exclusively for sending our newsletter. Furthermore subscribers to the newsletter could be informed by e-mail if this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or a related registration, as could be the case in the event of changes to the newsletter offer or changes in the technical circumstances. No personal data collected as part of the newsletter service will be passed on to third parties. The subscription to our newsletter can be cancelled by the data subject at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data that the data subject has given us for the newsletter mailing can be revoked at any time. For the purpose of revoking consent, a corresponding link can be found in each newsletter. In addition it is also possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter mailing directly on the website of the controller at any time or to notify the controller of this in another way.<\/p>\n<p>7. newsletter tracking<br \/>\nThe newsletters of B-SAFETY GmbH contain so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in such emails that are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and log file analysis. This allows a statistical evaluation of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, the B-SAFETY GmbH may see if and when an e-mail was opened by a data subject, and which links in the e-mail were called up by the data subject.<br \/>\nSuch personal data collected via the tracking pixel contained in the newsletters are stored and analyzed by the controller in order to optimize the newsletter dispatch and to better tailor the content of future newsletters to the interests of the data subject. This personal data will not be disclosed to third parties. Data subjects are entitled at any time to revoke the separate declaration of consent given in this regard via the double opt-in procedure. After revocation, this personal data will be deleted by the controller. The B-SAFETY GmbH automatically regards a withdrawal from the receipt of the newsletter as a revocation.<\/p>\n<p>8. contact possibility via the website<br \/>\nBased on statutory provisions, the website of the B-SAFETY GmbH contains data that enable a quick electronic contact to our enterprise, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a data subject contacts the controller by e-mail or by using a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject will be stored automatically. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the controller will be stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. No disclosure of such personal data to third parties will take place.<\/p>\n<p>9 Routine erasure and blocking of personal data.<br \/>\nThe controller processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the period of time necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or insofar as this has been provided for by the European Directives and Regulations or other legislator in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.<br \/>\nIf the storage purpose ceases to apply or if a storage period prescribed by the European Directive and Regulation Maker or another competent legislator expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions.<\/p>\n<p>10. rights of the data subject<br \/>\na) Right to confirmation<br \/>\nEvery data subject has the right granted by the European Directive and Regulation to obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning him or her are being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of confirmation, he or she may, at any time, contact our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the controller.<\/p>\n<p>b) Right of access<br \/>\nEvery person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European Directive and Regulation Maker, to obtain from the controller, at any time and free of charge, information about the personal data stored about him or her and a copy of that information. In addition, the European Directive and Regulation Legislator has granted the data subject access to the following information:<br \/>\nthe purposes of processing<br \/>\nthe categories of personal data processed<br \/>\nthe recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, in particular in the case of recipients in third countries or international organizations<br \/>\nif possible, the planned duration for which the personal data will be stored or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining this duration<br \/>\nthe existence of a right to obtain the rectification or erasure of personal data concerning him or her, or to obtain the restriction of processing by the controller, or a right to object to such processing<br \/>\nthe existence of a right of appeal to a supervisory authority<br \/>\nif the personal data are not collected from the data subject: Any available information about the origin of the data<br \/>\nThe existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, pursuant to Article 22(1) and (4) of the GDPR and, at least in these cases, meaningful information about the logic involved and the scope and intended effects of such processing for the data subject.<br \/>\nFurthermore, the data subject shall have the right to obtain information as to whether personal data have been transferred to a third country or to an international organization. If this is the case, the data subject also has the right to obtain information about the appropriate safeguards in connection with the transfer.<br \/>\nIf a data subject wishes to exercise this right of access, he or she may, at any time, contact our data protection officer or another employee of the controller.<\/p>\n<p>c) Right to rectification<br \/>\nEvery data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European Directive and Regulation to request the immediate rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him or her. Furthermore, the data subject has the right, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to request that incomplete personal data be completed, including by means of a supplementary declaration.<br \/>\nIf a data subject wishes to exercise this right of rectification, he or she may, at any time, contact our data protection officer or another employee of the controller.<\/p>\n<p>d) Right to erasure (right to be forgotten)<br \/>\nAny person concerned by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European Directive and Regulation to obtain from the controller the erasure without delay of personal data concerning him or her, where one of the following grounds applies and insofar as the processing is no longer necessary:<br \/>\nThe personal data were collected or otherwise processed for such purposes for which they are no longer necessary.<br \/>\nThe data subject revokes his or her consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) DS-GVO or Art. 9(2)(a) DS-GVO and there is no other legal basis for the processing.<br \/>\nThe data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) DS-GVO and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) DS-GVO.<br \/>\nThe personal data have been processed unlawfully.<br \/>\nThe erasure of the personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.<br \/>\nThe personal data has been collected in relation to information society services offered pursuant to Article 8(1) DS-GVO.<br \/>\nIf one of the aforementioned reasons applies, and a data subject wishes to arrange for the erasure of personal data stored by the B-SAFETY GmbH, he or she may, at any time, contact our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the controller. The data protection officer of the B-SAFETY GmbH or another employee shall promptly ensure that the erasure request is complied with immediately.<br \/>\nIf the personal data was made public by the B-SAFETY GmbH and our company is responsible for it pursuant to Art. 17 Para. 1 DS-GVO, B-SAFETY GmbH shall implement reasonable measures, including technical measures, to compensate other data controllers for processing the personal data published, taking into account the available technology and the cost of implementation, in order to inform the data subject that he or she has requested from those other data controllers to erase all links to the personal data or copies or replications of the personal data, unless the processing is necessary. The Data Protection Officer of the B-SAFETY GmbH or another employee will arrange the necessary in individual cases.<\/p>\n<p>e) Right to restriction of processing<br \/>\nEach data subject concerned by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European Directive and Regulation, to obtain from the controller the restriction of processing if one of the following conditions is met:<br \/>\nThe accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.<br \/>\nThe processing is unlawful, the data subject objects to the erasure of the personal data and requests instead the restriction of the use of the personal data.<br \/>\nThe controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but the data subject needs it for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims.<br \/>\nThe data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21 (1) of the GDPR and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the data subject.<br \/>\nIf one of the aforementioned conditions is met, and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by the B-SAFETY GmbH, he or she may, at any time, contact our data protection officer or another employee of the controller. The data protection officer of the B-SAFETY GmbH or another employee will arrange the restriction of the processing.<\/p>\n<p>f) Right to data portability<br \/>\nAny person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European Directive and Regulation to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which have been provided by the data subject to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. He or she also has the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data have been provided, provided that the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR and the processing is carried out by automated means, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.<br \/>\nFurthermore, when exercising the right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) of the GDPR, the data subject has the right to obtain that the personal data be transferred directly from one controller to another controller where technically feasible and provided that this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of other individuals.<br \/>\nIn order to assert the right to data portability, the data subject may at any time contact the data protection officer appointed by the B-SAFETY GmbH or another employee.<\/p>\n<p>g) Right to object<br \/>\nAny data subject concerned by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European Directives and Regulations, to object at any time, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to processing of personal data concerning him or her carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the DS-GVO. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.<br \/>\nThe B-SAFETY GmbH shall no longer process the personal data in the event of the objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.<br \/>\nIf the B-SAFETY GmbH processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data processed for such marketing. This also applies to the profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to the B-SAFETY GmbH to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the B-SAFETY GmbH will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.<br \/>\nIn addition, the data subject has the right, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to object to processing of personal data concerning him or her which is carried out by the B-SAFETY GmbH for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) of the Data Protection Regulation (DS-GVO), unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.<br \/>\nIn order to exercise the right to object, the data subject may directly contact the Data Protection Officer of the B-SAFETY GmbH or another employee. The data subject is also free, in connection with the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002\/58\/EC, to exercise his or her right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.<\/p>\n<p>h) Automated decisions in individual cases, including profiling.<br \/>\nAny data subject concerned by the processing of personal data shall have the right, granted by the European Directive and the Regulation, not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her, unless the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is permitted by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and that law contains suitable measures to safeguard the data subject&#8217;s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is made with the data subject&#8217;s explicit consent.<br \/>\nIf the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and the data controller, or (2) it is made with the data subject&#8217;s explicit consent, the B-SAFETY GmbH shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the data subject&#8217;s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, which include at least the right to obtain the data subject&#8217;s involvement on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and contest the decision.<br \/>\nIf the data subject wishes to exercise the rights concerning automated decisions, he or she may, at any time, contact our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the controller.<\/p>\n<p>i) Right to withdraw consent under data protection law.<br \/>\nEvery data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European Directive and Regulation-maker, to withdraw consent to the processing of personal data at any time.<br \/>\nIf the data subject wishes to exercise the right to withdraw consent, he or she may, at any time, contact our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the controller.<\/p>\n<p>11. data protection during applications and in the application process.<br \/>\nThe data controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of handling the application procedure. The processing may also take place electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant submits relevant application documents to the controller by electronic means, for example by e-mail or via a web form located on the website. If the controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions. If the controller does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller conflict with such deletion. Other legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a duty to provide evidence in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).<\/p>\n<p>12. legal basis of processing<br \/>\nArticle 6 I lit. a DS-GVO serves as the legal basis for our company for processing operations in 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 that are necessary for a delivery of goods or the provision of another service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b DS-GVO. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation by which a processing of personal data becomes necessary, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c DS-GVO. In rare cases, the processing of personal data might become necessary to protect vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were to be injured on our premises and as a result his or her name, age, health insurance data or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d DS-GVO. Finally, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f DS-GVO. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject are not overridden. Such processing operations are permitted to us in particular because they were specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47, Sentence 2 DS-GVO).<\/p>\n<p>13 Legitimate interests in the processing pursued by the controller or a third party.<br \/>\nIf the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f DS-GVO, our legitimate interest is the conduct of our business for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and our shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>14 Duration for which the personal data are stored.<br \/>\nThe criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiry of the period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, provided that it is no longer required for the performance of the contract or the initiation of the contract.<\/p>\n<p>15. legal or contractual requirements for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision<br \/>\nWe inform you that the provision of personal data is sometimes required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes, in order to conclude a contract, it may be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data that must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with him or her. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded. Before providing personal data by the data subject, the data subject must contact our data protection officer. Our data protection officer will inform the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data, and what the consequences of not providing the personal data would be.<\/p>\n<p>16. existence of automated decision-making<br \/>\nAs a responsible company, we do not use automated decision-making or profiling.<\/p>\n<p>17. privacy policy on the use and application of Google Analytics (with anonymization function).<br \/>\nThe controller has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymization function) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analysis service. Web analysis is the collection, compilation and evaluation of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analysis service collects, among other things, data on which website a data subject came to a website from (so-called referrers), which subpages of the website were accessed or how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. A web analysis is mainly used for optimizing a website and for cost-benefit analysis of internet advertising.<br \/>\nThe operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.<br \/>\nThe controller uses the addition &#8220;_gat._anonymizeIp&#8221; for web analysis via Google Analytics. By means of this additive, the IP address of the Internet connection of the data subject is shortened and anonymized by Google if access to our Internet pages is from a Member State of the European Union or from another State party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.<br \/>\nThe purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze the flow of visitors to our website. Google uses the data and information obtained, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us showing the activities on our website, and to provide other services related to the use of our website.<br \/>\nGoogle Analytics sets a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. By each call of one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, the internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically caused by the respective Google Analytics component to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical process, Google obtains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which Google uses, among other things, to track the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently enable commission calculations.<br \/>\nBy means of the cookie, personal information, for example the access time, the place from which an access originated and the frequency of visits to our website by the data subject, is stored. Each time the data subject visits our website, this personal data, including the IP address of the internet connection used by the data subject, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may disclose this personal data collected via the technical procedure to third parties.<br \/>\nThe data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as already described above, at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.<br \/>\nMoreover the data subject has the possibility to object to the collection of data generated by Google Analytics and related to the use of this website as well as to the processing of such data by Google and to prevent such processing. For this purpose, the data subject must download and install a browser add-on at the link tools.google.com\/dlpage\/gaoptout. This browser add-on tells Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data and information about visits to websites may be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered by Google as an objection. If the information technology system of the data subject is deleted, formatted or reinstalled at a later point in time, the data subject must reinstall the browser add-on in order to deactivate Google Analytics. Insofar as the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the data subject or another person attributable to his or her sphere of control, there is the option of reinstalling or reactivating the browser add-on.<\/p>\n<p>Data protection officer<br \/>\nAsc-Dienstleitungs GmbH<br \/>\nDanziger Street 21<br \/>\n37083 Goettingen<br \/>\ndatenschutz@asc46.de<\/p>\n<p>last update: 08.01.2019<\/p>\n<p>Further information and the applicable privacy policy of Google can be found at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.de\/intl\/de\/policies\/privacy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.google.de\/intl\/de\/policies\/privacy\/<\/a>\u00a0and at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/analytics\/terms\/de.html.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.google.com\/analytics\/terms\/de.html.<\/a>\u00a0Google Analytics is explained in more detail under this link<a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/intl\/de_de\/analytics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.google.com\/intl\/de_de\/analytics\/<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=&#8221;no&#8221; text_larger=&#8221;no&#8221;]<div  class=\"agb_content agb_privacy  notranslate\"><div><h2>1) Information on the Collection of Personal Data and Contact Details of the Controller<\/h2>\n\n<p><b>1.1<\/b>&nbsp;We are pleased that you are visiting our website and thank you for your interest.

Cookies are text files that are stored on your terminal device and enable an analysis of your use of a website. The information collected by cookies about your use of the website (including the IP address transmitted by your terminal device, shortened by the last digits, see below) is usually transmitted to a Google server and stored and processed there. This may also result in the transmission of information to the servers of Google LLC, a company based in the USA, where the information is further processed.<\/p>\n\n<p>When using Google Analytics 4, the IP address transmitted by your terminal device when you use the website is always collected and processed by default and automatically only in an anonymized manner, so that a direct personal reference of the collected information is excluded. This automatic anonymization is carried out by shortening the IP address transmitted by your terminal device by Google within member states of the European Union (EU) or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA) by the last digits.<\/p>\n\n<p>On our behalf, Google uses this and other information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports (reports) on your website activities or your usage behavior and to provide us with other services related to your website usage and internet usage. In this context, the IP address transmitted and shortened by your terminal device within the scope of Google Analytics 4 will not be merged with other data from Google. The data collected in the context of the use of Google Analytics 4 will be retained for 2 months and then deleted.<\/p>\n\n<p>Google Analytics 4 also enables the creation of statistics with statements about age, gender and interests of website users on the basis of an evaluation of interest-based advertising and with the involvement of third-party information via a special function, the so-called &quot;demographic characteristics&quot;. This makes it possible to determine and distinguish between groups of website users for the purpose of targeting marketing measures. However, data collected via the &quot;demographic characteristics&quot; cannot be assigned to a specific person and thus not to you personally. This data collected via the &quot;demographic characteristics&quot; function is retained for two months and then deleted.<\/p>\n\n<p>All processing described above, in particular the setting of Google Analytics cookies for the storage and reading of information on the terminal device used by you for the use of the website, will only take place if you have given us your express consent for this in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 letter a GDPR. Without your consent, Google Analytics 4 will not be used during your use of the website.<\/p>\n\n<p>You can revoke your consent once given at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your revocation, please deactivate this service via the &quot;Cookie Consent Tool&quot; provided on the website.<\/p>\n\n<p>Google Signals<br \/>\nOn this website, the &quot;Google Signals&quot; service can also be used as an extension of Google Analytics 4. With Google Signals, cross-device reports can be created by Google (so-called &quot;cross-device tracking&quot;). If you have activated &quot;personalised ads&quot; in your Google account settings and you have linked your internet-enabled devices to your Google account, Google can analyse user behaviour across devices and create database models based on this, provided you have given your consent to the use of Google Analytics in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 letter a GDPR (see above). The logins and device types of all page visitors who were logged into a Google account and performed a conversion are taken into account. The data shows, among other things, on which device you first clicked on an ad and on which device the associated conversion took place. Insofar as Google Signals is used, we do not receive any personal data from Google, but only statistics compiled on the basis of Google Signals. You have the option of deactivating the &quot;personalised ads&quot; function in the settings of your Google account and thus turning off the cross-device analysis.

By assigning individual UserIDs, we can have Google create cross-device reports (so-called &quot;cross-device tracking&quot;). This means that your usage behaviour can also be analysed across devices if you have given your corresponding consent to the use of Google Analytics in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 letter a GDPR, if you have set up a personal account by registering on this website and are logged into your personal account on different end devices with your relevant login data.
