01GeneralHow we ensure the protection of your data.
02Your rights.Your right to personal data.
In the following sections, we provide you with an overview as how we guarantee protection of personal data and which sort of data and for what purpose it is collected.
We collect your personal data on our website in two ways: (1) indirectly (for example through the technology of our website) and (2) directly (if for example you apply for a newsletter).
We analyse your indirectly collected data (e.g. IP and browser information), so that we can assess how well our website is functioning. In this way, we can continuously improve the site, adjust it to better suit your needs and to increase user friendliness. We use the directly collected data (e.g. name, email address), in order to provide the information or services which you have requested or to process your online applications. More information about this can be found further on in this data protection declaration.
Data which we no longer require is immediately erased provided there is no legal obligation to retain it.
We observe the principles of assigned data use and collect, process and store your personal data only for the purposes of which we have informed you. There is no disclosure of your personal data to third parties or to an allied company without your express consent unless this is not needed to provide the services or to perform the contract. Disclosure to third parties or to allied companies, is assured by guarantee pursuant to Art. 46 DSGVO. In addition, any disclosure to state institutions and authorities entitled to information is only made within the framework of the statutory disclosure duties or when we are bound by a legal ruling to provide information.
Within our company, we take internal data protection very seriously. Our employees and companies commissioned by us to provide services are contractually bound to secrecy and to observe the statutory data protection regulations.
Without the permission of parents or custodian, children may not provide us with any personal data. We advise all parents and custodians to instruct their children about the safe and responsible treatment of personal data in internet. We will not knowingly collect personal data from children or use it in any manner or disclose it to third parties.
To remove faults, non-personal usage data, such as browser type/ -version, the operating system being used, referrer URL, time and date of the server request as well the IP address for setting up standard logfiles is stored.
Because the collected data is made anonymously, it is not possible to draw any conclusions about the persons involved. The legal basis for the data collection is for the purposes of the legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 (f) DSGVO). Legitimate interest is to continually improve the website namics.com, for the reasons of data protection and to ensure the stability and the operational safety of our website for which the collection of statistical data is vital.
Data is erased as soon as it is no longer required to carry out the purpose for which it was collected.
The collection of data to set up the website and the storage of data in log files is vital for the website operation. The user therefore cannot raise any objection to this.
So that we can provide you with our services, we require, where applicable, additional personal data. This applies for our newsletters (Newsflash, HR Newsletter), online-applications as well as additional services (e.g. delivery of a study). Legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 (a) DSGVO.
When you have registered for our services, we collect and store the personal data for which you have given consent, basically only to the extent that it is needed to perform the services. We apply suitable security measures and up to date technology to our infrastructure in order to protect your data. Should storage of personal data exceed the performance of our services, you must give explicit consent to the storage (Art. 6 para.1 (a) DSGVO).
Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc.. Google Analytics supports us in evaluating our website usage, enabling us to make constant improvements. For this Google Analytics uses so called „Cookies“.
This involves text data which is stored on your computer allowing us to analyse your website usage. For example, information about the operating system, browser, your IP address, the websites visited by you (referrer URL) and dates and time of your visit to our website is collected.
The information about our website usage generated by this text data is transferred to a Google server in USA and stored there. Your IP address will however be truncated beforehand. Following our assignment, Google uses this information to evaluate the usage of our website and provides reports about our website activity. We have entered into a data processing agreement with Google.
You have the possibility of preventing Google Analytics using your data if you download a browser add-on intended to this purpose.
You can find further information about data protection direct from Google.
To enable appropriate and up to date internet distribution of our content, we integrate social networks and other internet services into our online offer. Therefore, on some pages we have integrated so called social plugins as for example from Facebook, Google+, Twitter, Xing, LinkedIn and Instagram. These are supplied direct by the individual network providers. You can recognise these plugins by the corresponding logos of the individual network provider.
By starting the social plugin, your IP address is notified to those who prepare the plugin.
If you want to receive the newsletter which we offer, we require a valid email address from you, as well as your name, which enables us to check that you are the owner of the given email address or that the owner consents to the receipt of the newsletter.
The legal basis for collecting this data is your consent (Art. 6 para.1(a) DSGVO).
At any time, you can withdraw your consent to the storage of data as well its use for sending the newsletter. In every newsletter you will find an unsubscribe link whereby, with one click, you can withdraw your subscription. Until your unsubscribe, we store this data so that we can provide the services requested by you.
We offer two different newsletters. Firstly, the Newsflash, which gives information about current events, blog contributions and business news. You can register for this newsletter on our website. Before sending you the regular newsletters, you must send us an email confirming the submitted registration.
The other newsletter is our HR Newsletter. This informs you several times per year of job openings, employee and other insider information. You can register for this newsletter on our website or at our numerous trade fairs. Before sending you the regular newsletters, you must send us an email confirming the submitted registration.
Apart from these newsletters you can also use our website to apply for our client events, make appointments as well as download studies und whitepapers. There is a separate form for each action in which you must provide the obligatory required data for the transaction and your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para.1 (a) DSGVO. This data is also stored for purposes of evaluation.
Data will be erased as soon as it is no longer required to carry out the purpose for which it was collected.
We willingly accept your application on our website for our posted job vacancies or when submitted on your own initiative. For this purpose, we require various sorts of personal data which we store on our internal applicant databank with your explicit consent until your withdrawal. If no appointment is agreed, we erase your application data within six months of its receipt unless you expressly agree to continued storage of data in our talent pool. The legal basis for data collection in this case is provided for in Art. 6 para. 1 (b) DSGVO.
If you send us an email, your email address will only be used for correspondence with you.
In any other case you will be explicitly notified, and your consent obtained.
We set out here which rights you have in connection with your personal data. Please be aware that data protection regulations and data handling directions e.g. by Google can change all the time. It is therefore advisable and requisite to keep up to date about the changes in legal requirements and the practice of the business e.g. Google.
