Document:
1.1 We are pleased that you have visited our website and thank you for your interest. In the following, we would like to inform you about the handling of your personal data when using our website. Personal data refers to all information through which you can be personally identified.
1.2 The responsible party for data processing on this website pursuant to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is Variotech GmbH, Lise-Meitner-Straße 12, 48529 Nordhorn, Germany, Tel.: +49 05921 8989-0, Fax: +49 05921 8989-10, Email: info@​var​iote​ch.​de. The person responsible for the processing of personal data means 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.
1.3 For security reasons and to protect the transmission of personal data and other confidential information (e.g. orders or inquiries to responsible parties), this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can identify an encrypted connection by the character string “https://“ and the lock icon in your browser line.
In the context of contacting us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail), personal data is collected. Which data is collected in the case of a contact form can be seen from the respective contact form. These data are stored and used exclusively for the purpose of responding to your request or for establishing contact and for the associated technical administration. The legal basis for processing data is our legitimate interest in responding to your request in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR. If your contact is aimed at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) point b GDPR. Your data will be deleted after final processing of your inquiry; this is the case if it can be inferred from the circumstances that the facts in question have been finally clarified, provided that there are no legal storage obligations to the contrary.
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer to help the website analyze how visitors use the site. As a rule, the information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including the abbreviated IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.
This website uses Google Analytics exclusively with the extension “_anonymizelp()”. IP addresses can therefore be processed only in abbreviated form in order to prevent personal references. With this extension, your IP address will first be abbreviated by Google within the member states of the European Union or in other States party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional circumstances will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there. In these exceptional circumstance, processing takes place according to Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interests in the statistical analysis of user behavior for purposes of optimization and marketing.
On our behalf, Google will use this information to analyze your use of this website, to compile reports on web activities and to perform other services for us associated with website and Internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the scope of Google Analytics is not combined with other information from Google.
This website uses Google Maps (API) from Google LLC., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (land) maps to visually display geographic information. The use of this service will show you our location and facilitate your arrival.
As soon as you visit the subpages in which the map of Google Maps is integrated, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to Google's servers in the USA and stored there. This is done regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged in to, or if there is no user account. When you are logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data (even for non-logged-in users) as usage profiles and evaluates them. According to Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR, such an evaluation is based on the legitimate interests of Google in the display of personalized advertising, market research and / or tailor-made design of its website. You have the right to object to the formation of these user profiles, and you must exercise this right directly with Google.
For the uniform representation of fonts, this site uses so-called web fonts, provided by Google LLC., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google“). When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly.
To do this, the browser you use must connect to Google's servers. As a result, Google learns that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web Fonts is in the interest of a consistent and attractive presentation of our online services. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR. If your browser does not support web fonts, a default font will be used by your computer.
Right of access pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR: In particular, you have the right to information as to whether or not your personal data is being processed, and, where that is the case, access to the personal data and the following information: the purposes of the processing; the categories of personal data concerned; the recipients or categories of recipient to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed; the intended period for which the personal data will be stored, or, if not possible, the criteria used to determine that period; the existence of the right to request rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing or to object to such processing; the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority; where the personal data are not collected from you, any available information as to their source; the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, and, at least in those cases, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the intended consequences of such processing for you; Where personal data are transferred to a third country or to an international organization, you shall have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Article 46 GDPR relating to the transfer.
Right to notification pursuant to Art. 19 GDPR: If you have invoked the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing of personal data, the responsible party is obligated to notify each recipient to whom the personal data has been disclosed of this right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed about those recipients.
Right to withdraw consent pursuant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR: You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with immediate effect for the future. Upon withdrawal of consent, we will immediately delete the relevant data, to the extent that further processing does not have a legal basis for processing without consent. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
Right to lodge a complaint pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR: If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR, you have the right – without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy – to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement.
The duration of the storage of personal data is determined by the respective legal retention period (e.g. commercial and tax retention periods). After expiry of this period, the corresponding data will be routinely deleted, provided it is no longer necessary for the performance or initiation of the contract and/or there is no longer any legitimate interest on our part in the further storage.
