We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our enterprise. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of the Emporis GmbH. The use of the Internet pages of the Emporis GmbH is possible without any indication of personal data; however, if a data subject wants to use special enterprise services via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to the Emporis GmbH. By means of this data protection declaration, our enterprise would like to inform the general public of the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed, by means of this data protection declaration, of the rights to which they are entitled.
As the controller, the Emporis GmbH has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions may in principle have security gaps, so absolute protection may not be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transfer personal data to us via alternative means, e.g. by telephone.
The data protection declaration of the Emporis GmbH is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration should be legible and understandable for the general public, as well as our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to first explain the terminology used.
the Internet service provider of the accessing system.
Therefore, the Emporis GmbH analyzes anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.
In the case of storing the data in log files, this is the case after 14 days at the latest. Any further storage of the log files or an evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.
For these purposes, the legitimate interest in the processing of personal data is pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
The data subject has the possibility to register on the website of the controller with the indication of personal data. Which personal data are transmitted to the controller is determined by the respective input mask used for the registration. In addition, the IP address—assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) and used by the data subject—date, and time of the registration are also stored.
After registration, the data subject has the option to manage the information in the user account or to provide other personal information, such as address, telephone number or payment information (for example bank account numbers or PayPal account).
The personal data entered by the data subject are collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the controller, and for his own purposes. The controller may request transfer to one or more processors (e.g. a parcel service) that also uses personal data for an internal purpose which is attributable to the controller.
These features include (but are not limited to) the possibility to create or edit data sets of buildings and companies on the Emporis database.
The storage of this data takes place against the background that this is the only way to prevent the misuse of our services, and, if necessary, to make it possible to investigate committed offenses. Insofar, the storage of this data is necessary to secure the controller. This data is not passed on to third parties unless there is a statutory obligation to pass on the data, or if the transfer serves the aim of criminal prosecution.

Registered persons are free to change the personal data specified during the registration (or later) at any time, or to have them completely deleted from the data stock of the controller.

An employees of the Emporis GmbH will arrange the necessary measures in individual cases.

The employee of the Emporis GmbH will arrange the restriction of the processing.
In order to assert the right to data portability, the data subject may at any time contact any employee of the Emporis GmbH.

The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been submitted shall inform the complainant of the status and results of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Article 78 of the GDPR.
In the context of the application process and in accordance with legal requirements, the controller collects and processes personal data only for the purpose and in the context of the application process. This personal information comes from files sent to the controller by e-mail or through external online job boards (where the person responsible posts job advertisements and where the applicant has uploaded data).
The legal basis for this is the consent of the person concerned to data processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.
When reviewing the application, personal or telephone conversations and e-mail traffic notes are made about the data subject and their behavior. In addition, the controller fills out an evaluation form. These data are collected so that the controller can gain an impression of the data subject and get to know them. The legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO is based on the purpose of attracting new employees. The data is needed to decide if the person fits the company and the tasks to be performed. In addition, data processing involves pre-contractual measures (Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR), since an employment contract can be developed from the application.
The controller stores the personal data for the duration of the application process. Should there be an employment relationship, traineeship or internship following the application process, the data will continue to be stored in the personnel file. Otherwise, the application process ends with the receipt of a rejection from the controller. At the latest six months after receipt of the cancellation, the data will be deleted. This does not apply if the processing and storage of the personal data in the specific case for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims is required.
This Website uses Google Maps API to display geographical information visually. This means that Emporis GmbH iincorporates maps from Google Maps, a service of of the provider Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; in the following referred to as „Google“), on the website. When using Google Maps, Google also collects, processes and uses data about the use of the card functions by the person concerned in order to reproduce the contents correctly. This data may include, in particular, the IP address and location data as well as further metadata of the user. Since without the IP address, the contents can not be sent to the according browser. The IP address is therefore required for the presentation of this content. These data can be processed in the United States of America.
Purpose and legitimate interest according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO is therefore the trouble-free and user-friendly use of the web offer with the correct reproduction of the map material.
Likewise maps of the service OpenStreetMap (https://www.openstreetmap.de) are integrated on the website. It is offered on the Open Data Commons Open Database License (ODbL) by the OpenStreetMap Foundation (OSMF).
When using the cards, OpenStreetMap also collects, processes and uses data on the use of the card functions by the person concerned. In particular, this data may include IP addresses and location data of the person concerned in order to be able to reproduce the contents correctly. According to the knowledge of Emporis GmbH OpenStreetMap uses these data exclusively for the temporary storage of the selected settings and for the purpose of displaying the map functions. These data can be processed in the United States of America.
To protect the security of your personal information during transmission, we use state-of-the-art encryption techniques (such as SSL) over HTTPS.
In order to provide paid services, additional data will be requested by the controller, such as: Payment details. In addition, external payment service providers are used to handle payment transactions between our company and our customers through their platforms.
Please note that due to the limitations of some systems used by financial institutions, the bill you receive from your credit card provider or other financial institution will contain the name of a payment provider (e.g., WorldPay Ltd.) instead of or in addition to the name Emporis.
On this website, the controller has integrated components of Worldpay. Worldpay is a payment service that allows credit card payment of products and services on the Internet. Once the transaction is successful, the online dealer immediately receives a payment confirmation. This enables a trader to deliver goods, services or downloads to the customer immediately after ordering.
The operating company of Worldpay is Worldpay (UK) Limited, The Walbrook Building, 25 Walbrook, London EC4N 8AF, United Kingdom.
If the data subject chooses "Pay by Credit Card" as the payment option in our online shop during the ordering process, the data of the data subject will be transmitted to Worldpay. By selecting this payment option, the data subject agrees to the transmission of personal data required for payment processing.
In the case of purchase processing via Worldpay, the buyer sends the credit card information to Worldpay (UK) Limited. Worldpay then carries out a transfer to the online merchant after technical verification of the account status and retrieval of additional data to check the account assignment. The online trader is then automatically informed of the execution of the financial transaction.
The personal data exchanged with Worldpay is the first name, last name, address, email address, IP address, telephone number, mobile phone number, or other data necessary for payment processing. The transmission of the data is aimed at payment processing and fraud prevention. The controller shall immediately transfer other personal data, even if a legitimate interest in the transmission exists. The personal data exchanged between Worldpay and the controller shall be transmitted by Worldpay to economic credit agencies. This transmission is intended for identity and creditworthiness checks.
The legal basis for the processing of the data is the consent of the person concerned, Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. Since the payment for the goods and services is a prerequisite for the fulfillment of the purchase contract, an additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO.
Worldpay provides personal data to affiliated companies and service providers or subcontractors as far as this is necessary for the fulfillment of contractual obligations or data in order to be processed.
The data subject has the possibility to revoke the consent to the handling of personal data at any time from Worldpay. A revocation shall not have any effect on personal data which must be processed, used or transmitted in accordance with (contractual) payment processing.
