We are glad that you visit our homepage and that you are interested in our products. Protecting your privacy while using our homepage is very important to us, therefore we inform you below among other things about the collection of anonymous and personal data.
While visiting our website, you, as an individual person, remain anonymous.
This data is not saved on our webserver. Personal data are only saved if you provide these yourself voluntarily, for example in form of a registration, a survey, a contest, in order to realize a contract or in order to answer your questions. As far as you use the contact form provided by us and you disclose personal data within, or rather contact us by e-mail, these data are only collected, processed and used in order to answer your question. If you do not use the offered contact form, no data collection will take place beyond that.
While establishing contact with us (i.e. per contact form or e-mail), personal data will be collected. Which data is being collected in case of a contact form, is decided by you, in line with your request and voluntary data regarding contact and address data. When clicking the “Submit”-button, you agree to the transfer of the data in the contact form to us. A retransmission of your data to third parties will not occur without your permission. Furthermore, your data will not be saved by us in a third country without your permission. A transfer of personal data to a public institution and administration will only occur within the scope of national legal regulation. In order to ensure a save transfer of your data, we use an encoded link with secure socket layer (SSL) certificate with best demonstrated available technology. The data is saved and used in order to answer your request and for further contacting and the involved technical administration. The legal basis for the data handling is our legitimate interest in answering your request according to Art. 6, pas. 1f GDPR. Once the handling of your request is completed, your request will be deleted. This is the case, when circumstances indicate that the regarded issue is concluded and there is no legal duty to preserve the data. Within our company we ensure that only people who require your data in order to fulfill contractual and legal duties, will receive those.
We do not use your data in any way in order to profile or for automated decision making.
The duration of the storage of personal data is in accordance with the respectively applying legal retention period (i.e. trade and fiscal retention periods). At the end of the retention period the data are deleted, as far as they are no longer required in order to complete a contract and/or we have no further entitled interest in continuing to save them. As far as data do not succumb to precise storage deadlines, they will be deleted when the reason for which they were processed for, ceases to exist. BRANDRUP does not sell products directly to end customers. Contact data and if so phone numbers that are passed on to us by our retailers by direct client request for a direct supply of BRANDRUP products to the end customers, are saved in the receipts of our inventory control program. At the end of the legal storage period you can object to a further saving of these data on the receipts.
If you want to send an email to BRANDRUP through your private e-mail account, please consider to take precautions concerning the liability and integrity of the contents of your e-mails, e.g. by using usual market coding software. As a transport encryption we offer for our website HTTPS and the actual coding protocol TLS 1.2. We recommend you to keep your internet browser on the latest status in order to ensure a save transfer of your data on its transit.
