Amendments to this privacy statement may become necessary in the course of further development of our website and the implementation of new legal requirements or new technologies, or in order to improve our service for you.
This privacy statement applies to data, including personal data that may be collected about you by Raynet. Personal data is data or a combination of individual datasets by which you can be identified.
We collect, process and use your personal data regularly only with your consent. Exceptions are made in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for real reasons and where processing of the data is permitted by law. Under no circumstances we will pass on your personal data to third parties outside Raynet for advertising or marketing purposes without your consent.
As an international company, we use external service providers. If the data being processed is personal data, appropriate contractual agreements have been made and organizational measures implemented in accordance with the applicable law to ensure the protection of your data.
Within our company, compliance with legal requirements and with this privacy statement is monitored by our data protection officers. Our employees have been trained to handle personal data and have been obligated, in writing, to comply with the data protection regulations.
If we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 no 1 lit. a German data protection law (DS-GVO) serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.
If the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken at the request of the data subject, Article 6(1) (b) DS-GVO serves as the legal basis.
If the processing of personal data is required to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DS-GVO serves as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 para. 1 letter f DS-GVO serves as the legal basis for processing.

For the implementation of our General Terms and Conditions of Business and other administrative operations of our business.
Ensuring the functionality of our information technology systems.
The general data and information collected by accessing our website is stored in the log files of the web server. No conclusions are drawn about the accessing person. This anonymous data is stored separately from the personal data provided.
We will only keep your personal data for as long as necessary to carry out our services to you or as long as we are required by law. After this your personal data will be deleted. Furthermore, data may be stored if this is provided by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions.
The data will also be blocked or deleted if a legally standardized storage period expires, unless further storage of the data is required for the processing of existing contractual relationships.
Any revocation of your consent to the processing and use of your data at any time, which is not required by law or directly for the processing of an existing contractual relationship.
At your request, we will inform you in writing, and in accordance with the applicable law, whether we have stored any of your personal data and, if so, which specific data.
As a rule, children and persons under the age of 18 should not transmit personal data to us without the permission of a/the parent/s or legal guardian/s. We do not request personal data from children and we affirm that we do not knowingly collect personal data from children, to use this data in any way or to disclose data to third parties.
We have taken substantial precautions to ensure the security of your data. The personal data you have entered on HTML pages (contact forms) and that is stored by us shall be transmitted to Raynet in encrypted form (SSL – Secure Socket Layer) via the public data network, and stored and processed at Raynet.
Our newsletters are sent via “MailChimp”, a newsletter distribution platform of the US provider Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA.
The data of our newsletter recipients are stored on the servers of MailChimp in the USA. MailChimp uses this information to send and evaluate the newsletter on our behalf. Furthermore, MailChimp can use this data according to its own information to optimize or improve its own services, e.g. to technically optimize the sending and presentation of newsletters or for economic purposes, in order to determine from which countries the recipients come. MailChimp does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write them down or pass them on to third parties.
We will only send newsletters, e-mails and other electronic notifications of an advertising nature (hereinafter referred to as “newsletters”) with the consent of the recipient or a legal permit. If the contents of a newsletter are specifically described within the scope of a registration, they are decisive for the consent of the users. In addition, our newsletters contain information about our products and services as well as promotions or events.
The registration for our newsletter takes place in a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after registration you will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that nobody can log in with other e-mail addresses.
To subscribe to the newsletter, simply enter your e-mail address and the language in which you would like to receive the newsletter.
Optionally we ask you to indicate your first and last name as well as your company. This information is only used to personalise the newsletter.
The newsletters contain a so-called “web-beacon”, i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the MailChimp server when the newsletter is opened. Within the scope of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and the time of retrieval are initially collected. This information is used to technically improve the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behaviour based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined using the IP address) or access times.
You may revoke your consent to the storage of your data and the sending of the newsletter at any time. You can use the link provided for this purpose within the e-mails sent to you.
In accordance with the provisions of the German data protection law (DS-GVO), which will come into force on 25 May 2018, we inform you that your consents to the sending of e-mail addresses are based on Art. 6 no. 1 lit. a, 7 DS-GVO and § 7 no. 2 lit. 3 and no. 3 UWG. The use of the shipping service provider MailChimp, carrying out statistical surveys and analyses as well as logging of the registration procedure, are carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 no. 1 lit.f DS-GVO. We are interested in using a user-friendly and secure newsletter system that serves both our business interests and the expectations of users.
We would also like to point out that you can object to the future processing of your personal data at any time in accordance with the statutory provisions of Art. 21 DS-GVO. The objection may be lodged in particular against processing for direct marketing purposes.
Raynet’s websites may include links to other websites which don’t fall under our supervision. We cannot accept any responsibility for the protection of the privacy or the content of these websites, but we offer these links to make it easier for our visitors to find more information about specific subjects.
We use Google Analytics only with IP anonymization enabled. This means that Google will reduce the IP address of users within Member States of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. The IP address transmitted by the user’s browser is not merged with other Google data.

An opt-out cookie is stored on your device. If you delete your cookies, you must click this link again.
We also use Google Analytics to evaluate data from AdWords for statistical purposes. If you do not wish this, you have the possibility to deactivate this under the ad manager http://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/?hl=en.

Our website uses plugins of the social network LinkedIn and LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereinafter referred to as “LinkedIn”).

Please contact LinkedIn for more details on data collection, your legal options and recruitment options. These are made available to you at http://www.linkedin.com/static?key=privacy_policy&trk=hb_ft_priv.
