When you use our Service and, where legally required, if you have consented, We place so-called ‘cookies’ on your computer to offer you a larger range of functions and to organise the use of the Service in a convenient and needs-based manner. Cookies are small files which are assigned to the browser used by you and stored on your hard drive and provide the party placing the cookie, i.e. Us, with certain information.
We in particular use a cookie remembering the graphical interface settings.
Within our Service, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by the Google Inc. (“Google“). As a general rule, the information generated by the cookies about your use of this Service will be transferred to a server of Google in the United States and will be stored there. Within our Service, however, the so-called ‘IP anonymisation’ is enabled, so that your IP address will first be shortened by Google within the Member States of the European Union or in other countries which are parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The entire IP address will be transmitted to a server of Google in the United States and will be shortened there only in exceptional cases. Google will use this information on our behalf to analyse your use of the Service, to compile reports about the Website activities and to provide Us with additional services related to the use of the Website and the use of the Internet. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics will not be amalgamated with any other data of Google.
As far as this data is to be regarded as personal data, the processing of the data is carried out on the basis of legal provisions which authorise the data processing because we have an overriding legitimate interest in a demand-oriented design as well as the statistical evaluation of our Services (e.g. Art. 6 para. 1(f) GDPR, Sec. 15 para. 3 TMG); or on the basis of a provided consent (e.g. by clicking accept on our cookie banner).
Most Internet browsers allow you to block or prevent storing cookies. You may configure the browser settings accordingly and block the acceptance of cookies, e.g. by following the instructions for the browser used by you, retrievable at http://www.allaboutcookies.org/, or using any other technical tool to this end, if possible. However, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that you might probably no longer be able to use all functions of this Website in such case.
In addition, you can prevent the registration of the data created by the cookie and related to your use of our Service (incl. your IP address) to Google as well as the processing of such data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link [https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en-GB].
We are a company based in Germany which operates on an international scale and is part of a larger group of companies. Certain personal data, e.g. data specified by the user upon registration, may be disclosed to our affiliated companies for internal administration purposes incl. joint customer care and customer relationship management.
Occasionally, We rely on other affiliated group companies or on third-party companies and external service providers to render our service, e.g. for hosting parts of the Service or the related data. In such cases, the data is disclosed to these companies to enable processing by them. These service providers are carefully selected and may exclusively process the data according to our instructions.
Within the scope of enhancing our business, it may be the case that our company structure transforms in that its legal form is changed, subsidiaries, company parts or units are established, purchased or sold. In case of such transactions, the customer information is disclosed together with the transferred assets, if required. In case of each disclosure of personal data to third parties to the extent described above, we ensure that this is made in accordance with this Data Protection Notice and the applicable data protection laws.
If required to clarify any unlawful and/or abuse use of the Service or for legal prosecution, personal data can be forwarded to the law enforcement authorities and to potentially aggrieved third parties. Such forwarding is only made, however, if indications for any unlawful and/or abusive behaviour exist. Data may also be disclosed if this serves to enforce terms and conditions of use or other agreements. We are additionally required by law to provide specific public bodies with information upon request. This may include law enforcement authorities, public authorities prosecuting administrative offences entailing a fine and tax authorities.
The aforementioned disclosures may result in such data being processed in countries outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”) (i.e. in a third country). Each transmission of data to a third country is made under observance of the applicable data protection laws. If the European Commission has not established the existence of an adequate level of protection for a third country, We provide reasonable guarantees to ensure adequate protection of your data. This may be made, e.g., by concluding data processing agreements containing EU standard data protection clauses which offer appropriate guarantees according to the European Commission (accessible at: http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/international-transfers/transfer/index_en.htm).
In the case of certain service providers that are being engaged as data processors in the U.S. we transfer data based on the data recipients’ certifications under the EU-US-Privacy Shield (acknowledged by the European Commission in its resolution dated 12 July 2016).
We usually store any information for abuse detection and prosecution, in particular your IP address, as long as necessary, for this purpose including for investigating or prosecuting a specific incident. This data is stored and used based on statutory provisions according to which these data processing activities are justified in that: We have an overriding legitimate interest in ensuring the functionality and security of the Service and in preventing fraud (e.g. Art. 6 para. 1 f) GDPR).
We delete or anonymize your personal data as soon as it is no longer needed for the purposes for which we have collected or used the data as per this Data Protection Notice. We normally store your personal data for the period of use and the term of the contract about the Services and retain them beyond that to the extent required for purposes of criminal investigation or to secure, assert or enforce legal claims.
After deletion from our operational systems, the data remains for a certain period in the back-up copies in our revolving data-backup process and are then, however, automatically deleted in the course of this process at the end of the backup cycle.
Right of access: You have the right to receive from Us information about the personal data relating to you which are processed by Us as set forth in Art. 15 GDPR.
Right to rectification: You have the right to demand that We correct personal data relating to you if those data are incorrect.
Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten"): You have the right to demand that We delete personal data relating to you under the prerequisites described in Art. 17 GDPR. These prerequisites establish especially a right to deletion if the personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
Right to demand restriction of processing: You have the right to demand that We restrict the processing in accordance with Art. 18 GDPR. This right exists especially if the accuracy of the personal data is in dispute as well as in the event that deletion cannot yet be made due to a need to comply with legal retention requirements.
Right to data portability: You have the right to receive from Us personal data, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format in accordance with Art. 20 GDPR. This includes the right to have the data transmitted to another controller. This right exists where the data is processed by automated means and on the basis of either your consent or a contract.
Right to object: You have the right to submit an objection against the processing of personal data relating to you for reasons resulting from your specific situation. We will stop processing your personal data unless We can prove important reasons for the processing which deserve protection which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms or if the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend against legal claims.
Moreover, you have the right to file a complaint with a supervisory authority.
We always keep this Data Protection Notice up to date. Therefore, we reserve the right to modify it from time to time and to update modifications of the collection, processing or use of your data. The current version of the Data Protection Notice can always be retrieved under the “Data Protection” section/link within the Service.
