We take the protection of your personal data very seriously and want you to be safe when visiting our website. Our data protection practice follows in particular the requirements of the EU Data Protection Basic Ordinance, the Federal Data Protection Act (FDPA-new) and the Telemedia Act (TMA). At this point we would like to inform you about the type, scope and purpose of the processing of your personal data. We would like to point out in advance that this data protection declaration only refers to our websites and does not apply to websites of third parties to which we refer in the form of links.
Subject of protection are personal data. This is all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as “data subject”). This mainly includes information that enables us to draw conclusions about your identity (e.g. information such as name, postal address, e-mail address and telephone number).
Cookies can usually be disabled or removed using tools available in most commercial browsers. The settings must be defined and individually set for each browser you use. The various browsers offer different functions and options for this purpose.
PHPSESSID www.sinalco.com Keeps the user’s status for all page requests. Until the end of your session.
wordpress_test_cookie www.sinalco.com Until the end of your session.
Until the end of your session.
_utmt www.sinalco.com Used to slow down the speed of requests to the server. Until the end of your session.
Session cookies allow users and the changes they have made to a website to be recognized. They allow the website to track its movements across individual pages so that information that has already been entered/saved does not have to be entered/saved again. An example of this are shopping carts in ecommerce stores. The session cookie stores the selected products in the shopping cart so that it contains the correct items when paying at the checkout. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or lose their validity as soon as the session has expired automatically.
A permanent or log cookie stores the user’s information and settings on the user’s computer for the period of time specified in the expiry date. This leads to faster and more convenient access, as you do not have to make language settings again or re-enter login data, for example. The cookie is automatically deleted at the end of the storage period.
Third-party cookies usually have no influence on the use of the site, as they do not originate from the operator of the website. For example, they serve the purpose of collecting information for advertising, custom content and web statistics and passing it on to the respective third party provider.
Tracking cookies are special text files that provide the opportunity to collect data about the behavior of the Internet user. This is intended to provide information about the user’s main interests, for example in order to be able to launch precisely tailored advertising offers. Tracking cookies are therefore set not only when you log in, but automatically when you visit the website.
Contact forms are available on our website which can be used for electronic contact. To ensure a secure transmission of your data, we use a state-of-the-art encrypted connection with SSL certificate during the transmission. By clicking the “Send” button you agree to the transmission of the data entered in the input mask to us. We store your name and email address and any other information you provide in order to be able to contact you and answer your enquiry in the best possible way. On the one hand we can offer you the service you expect from us in this way, and on the other hand we have the opportunity to continuously improve ourselves (Art. 6 § (1) (f) GDPR).
We use a login portal to define a protected area that is only accessible to our partners. You will receive the login data for your registration by a previous, successful registration on our website, which will subsequently be personally checked and approved by us. All data that you provide to us during registration is used exclusively to identify you as a partner and to create an account for you (Art. 6 § (1) (b) GDPR) By agreeing to our data protection declaration and clicking on “Register”, you consent to the transfer and processing of your data for the aforementioned purposes. As long as you are logged in, you can access the content and services that we only offer to registered users. Registered users also have the option of changing or deleting the data provided during registration at any time if required. During your login process, your registration and the transfer of your personal data is secured by encryption. The same applies to the period of your visit to the protected area.
The aforementioned information is required to receive and process orders, to deliver products and to settle payments via the special account for advertising material (Art. 6 § 1 b GDPR). An order is placed from the moment the “Place Order” button is pressed. As soon as the storage of the data is no longer necessary or legally required, it will be deleted.
To protect your orders via the Internet form, our company uses the service reCAPTCHA of the company Google Inc. (Google). The query serves to differentiate whether the input is made by a person or abusively by automated, machine processing. The query includes sending the IP address and any other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service to Google. For this purpose your input will be transmitted to Google and used there.
By accepting the declaration of consent, which you must agree to before using Google reCaptcha, you agree to the sending of your data to Google. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other countries party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of reCaptcha is not merged with other Google data. The deviating data protection regulations of the company Google apply to this data.
Our website uses functions of various web analysis services from other companies such as Google Inc. In the following, we will explain in more detail which services are involved and which data are analysed.
If you use a mobile device (e.g. smartphone) to access our website, please use our cookie banner Opt-Out ( Settings —> 3rd party cookies) to prevent the transmission of analysis data to Google Analytics. The cookie banner opt-out is also possible as an alternative to the browser add-on already described, because it activates an “opt-out cookie” which is only valid for this browser and this domain. If you delete the cookies in this browser, this cookie will also be lost and you will have to set your preferences again.
Various social media trackers are used on our website. These are the Twitter Badge, Twitter Button and Twitter Syndication trackers of the microblogging service Twitter, set by Twitter Inc., 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA. In addition, Facebook Social Graph operates tracking through the social network “Facebook”, which belongs to Facebook Inc.1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. By clicking on the “I agree” button of our cookie banner, you consent to the transmission of personal data such as the IP address by the trackers to the social networks. For more information on Twitter data collection, please visit https://help.twitter.com/de/twitter-for-websites-ads-info-and-privacy. You can find Facebook’s data policy at https://de-de.facebook.com/privacy/explanation. To prevent the transfer of data for your current browser after you have already clicked on “I agree” on the cookie banner, clear your browser’s cache and reload the page.
