Document:
A physician, poet and – above all – botanist, Albrecht Von Haller was a towering figure of the German Enlightenment.
In 1736 he established the famous Göttingen botanical gardens – the same gardens that today send their rarest botanicals to Ireland, where they are slowly transformed into this rarest of Irish gins.
Von Haller believed passionately in the value of sharing knowledge and expertise. This enabled him to build a legacy of inspiring excellence. And it led us to create a gin named after him that is a testament to that passion.
In Göttingen, Carl v. Hardenberg Jr. curates the select, hand-picked botanicals and shares his rich family knowledge of spirits and liqueurs with the unique distillery established in deepest rural Ireland by PJ Rigney.
The result is an extraordinary gin – aromatic, distinctive, pure.
Halleria lucida – or the tree fuschia – is named after our namesake Albrecht von Haller. It is a small genus of ten species that occur throughout Africa, producing small, very sweet fruits and flowers full of nectar.
German ginger or calamus is an aromatic root that has long been prized both for its fragrance and its invigorating properties throughout Europe, Asia and the Americas.
A native of South America, Lemon Verbena was brought to Europe in the 17th century. When crushed, the leaves produce a fragrant lemon scent and flavour. The aromatic essential oil derived from the plant is also widely used.

1.2 The data controller responsible for data processing on this website within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulations (“GDPR”) is Hardenberg-Wilthen AG. The data controller responsible for the processing of personal data is the natural or legal person who (alone or together with others) determines the purpose and means of personal data processing.

You can recognise an encrypted connection by the character sequence „https://“ and the lock symbol in your browser line.
Processing takes place in accordance with Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website. The data are not passed on or used for any other purpose. However, we reserve the right to subsequently inspect the server log files if there are concrete indications of illegal use.
Processing takes place in accordance with Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in selling products through our online shop. The data are not passed on or used for any purpose other than with the relevant product information for the sale of our products. However, we reserve the right to subsequently inspect data if there are concrete indications of illegal use.
We use so-called cookies on several web pages to make our website attractive to visit and enable certain functions to be used. Some of the cookies used by us are erased again at the end of the browser session – i.e. after closing your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies (cookies from third parties) remain on your device and enable us or our partner undertakings to recognise your browser on its next visit (persistent cookies). If cookies are stored on your device, they collect and process particular individual user information, such as browser and location data, as well as IP address values. Persistent cookies are automatically erased after a prescribed period which can be different for each cookie.
The cookies partly serve to simplify the order process by storing settings (e.g. noting the content of a virtual shopping basket for a later visit to the website). If individual cookies used by us also process personal information, the processing occurs either to perform a contract in accordance with Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR or to uphold our legitimate interest in the optimum functionality of the website or the customer friendly and effective design of the webpage.
We work together with advertising partners who help us to make our internet services more interesting for you. For this purpose, our partner enterprises’ cookies are also stored on your hard disk (“third party cookies”). If we work together with the abovementioned partner enterprises, you will be individually and separately informed about the use of such cookies and the extent of the respective information collected within the following paragraphs.
Please note that you can configure your browser so that you are informed about cookies being placed and can decide whether to accept cookies on an individual basis, to accept cookies in particular cases or to generally exclude cookies. Each browser differs in the way it manages cookie settings. Please note that in the event that you do not accept cookies, the functionality of our website may be restricted.
In the course of contacting us (e.g. via the contact form, application form, competition form or email), personal data are collected. Which data are collected via the contact form is evident from the respective contact form. This data is stored and used exclusively for the purpose of answering your concern or making contact with you and the administration in association with this. The legal basis for processing the data is our legitimate interest in responding to your concern pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If contact is aimed at entering into a contract, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR provides an additional legal basis for the processing of data. Your data will be erased after your request has been finally dealt with, i.e. when the circumstances indicate that the matter concerned has been finally resolved, provided that no statutory obligation to retain data prevents this.
In accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, personal data are also collected and processed if you communicate them to us so that we can perform a contract or open a customer account. What data are collected is evident from the respective input forms. It is possible to delete your customer account at any time by sending a notice to the address of the data controller provided above. We save and use the data communicated by you to fulfil a contract. After the contract has been completely performed or your customer account has been deleted then (considering any statutory periods for which data must be retained), your data will be blocked unless you have expressly consented to its further use or we have reserved the right to use it for a lawful purpose. We inform you about any such purposes below.
If you register for our newsletter email, we regularly send you information about our services. The only mandatory information required to transmit our newsletter is your email address. The provision of any other information is voluntary and is used so that you can be addressed personally. We use the so-called “double opt-in process” to distribute our newsletter. This means that we will only send you a newsletter email if you have expressly confirmed that you consent to receiving a newsletter. We then send you a confirmation email which asks you to click on a relevant link to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter in future.
When you activate the confirmation link you are issuing us with your consent to use your personal data pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. When you register for the newsletter we save your IP address registered by the internet service provider (“ISP”), as well as the date and time of registration so that we can trace any possible misuse of your email address at a later point in time.

After you have unsubscribed, your email address is immediately erased from our newsletter distributor, unless you have expressly agreed to the further use of your data or we have reserved the right to further use your data for a lawful purpose that we inform you about in this data protection policy.

This data processing takes place on the basis of our legitimate interest in personalised direct advertising in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If you initially objected to the use of your email address for this purpose we do not send emails. You are entitled to object to the use of your email address for the above advertising purpose at any time with effect for the future by informing the data controller named above. The use of your email address for advertising purposes will cease immediately after receipt of your objection.

The data entered by you for the purpose of receiving the newsletter (e.g. email address) are stored on LUPCOM media GmbH’s servers in Germany.LUPCOM media GmbH uses this information to send and statistically evaluate newsletters on our behalf. This data is used for the exclusive purpose of statistically analysing newsletter campaigns. The results of the analysis may be used to alter future newsletters to better suit the interests of the recipients.
If you wish to object to data analysis for statistical evaluation you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We have entered into a data processing contract with LUPCOM media GmbH, in which LUPCOM media GmbH must undertake to protect our customer’s data and not to pass it on to third parties.
On the basis of our legitimate interest in personalised direct advertising, we reserve the right to save your first and surnames, postal address and – if we have obtained this information from you in the course of our contractual relationship – your title, university degree, year of birth and your professional, branch or business name, and to use this for the purpose of sending interesting offers and information about our products by post in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. You can object to the saving and use of your data for this purpose at any time by sending a corresponding notice to the data controller.

Our website uses the Google Maps mapping service via an API. The service provider is Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA).
In order to use the functions of Google Maps it is necessary to save your IP address. As a rule, this information is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and saved there. The provider of this site has no influence over the data transfer.

Google’s data protection policy can be found under: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
To protect instructions provided by you via online forms, the Hardenberg-Wilthen AG uses the reCAPTCHA service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). The challenge is intended to distinguish whether inputs are made by humans or improperly by automated, machine processing. The challenge includes sending the IP address and any further data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service to Google. Your input is transmitted to Google for this purpose and used further there. By using ReCaptcha, you declare that you agree that the identification provided by you may flow into the digitisation of old works. If IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will, however, first be abbreviated within the member states of the EU or in another state that is party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the course of ReCaptcha will not be collated with other Google data. Google’s different data protection provisions apply in relation to such data. Further information about Google’s data protection policy can be found under: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
Right to information pursuant to Art. 19 GDPR: if you have asserted your right to the correction or deletion of data or to restrict processing against the data controller, the data controller is obliged to inform all recipients to whom the relevant personal data has been disclosed about the correction or erasure of the data or the restriction of processing unless this proves to be impossible or is associated with disproportionate cost. You have the right to be informed about these recipients.
If, within the framework of balancing interests, we process your personal data on the grounds of our overriding legitimate interest, you have the right to object to this processing at any time with effect for the future for reasons arising from your particular situation.
If you make use of your right to object, we will stop processing the relevant data. However, we reserve the right to process the data further if we can demonstrate compelling legitimate reasons that outweigh your interests and basic rights and freedoms, or if processing serves the assertion, exercise or defence of legal rights.
If we process your personal data for direct advertising, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of such advertisement at any time. You can exercise your right to object as described above. If you exercise your right to object, we will stop processing the data concerned for the purposes of direct advertisement.

After the expiry of this period, the relevant data are routinely erased, provided they are not required for the purposes of performing a contract or for negotiations prior to entering a contract and we have no legitimate interest in keeping them further.
