Schoeller Werk GmbH & Co. KG (hereinafter Schoeller) takes the protection of personal data very seriously. We have therefore implemented technical and organisational measures to ensure compliance with the data protection regulations at Schoeller. All activities on the web conform with the applicable legal regulations pertaining to the protection of personal data and data security. We are constantly improving our security measures in line with technological development. However, we cannot warrant complete data security with regard to e-mail communication. We therefore advise you to send confidential information by post.
In using our website, you give your consent to the collection and processing of your personal data pursuant to this data protection Information.
(1) The following section informs you about the collection of personal data when using our website. Personal data refers to all data that refer to you personally, e.g. name, address, e-mail addresses, user behaviour.
(2) The controller pursuant to Art. 4 (7) EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is Schoeller Werk GmbH & Co., Im Kirschseiffen, D-53940 Hellenthal/ Eifel. You can contact our data protection officer under our postal address stating “Data Protection Officer” or at Datenschutz@schoellerwerk.de.
(3) When you contact us by e-mail or using a contact form, we save the data that you provide (your e-mail address, possibly your name and your phone number) so that we can answer your questions. We erase the data acquired in this way once storage is no longer necessary, or we limit the processing where statutory retention obligations apply.
(4) If we use contracted service providers for individual functions, we shall inform you in detail about the respective processes as stated below. The same applies if we want to use your data for promotional purposes. In doing so, we will also inform you of the stipulated criteria regarding the storage period.
(2) Insofar as your personal data are processed on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) f GDPR, you have the right pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR to object to the processing of your personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation or if your objection pertains to processing for direct marketing. In the latter case you have a general right to object which shall be implemented by us without stating a particular situation.
(3) Furthermore, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority about the way we process your personal data.
(3) We also use temporary cookies to make the website more user-friendly. These are saved on your device for a certain defined period. When you visit our website again to use our services, they recognise automatically that you visited us before and see which inputs and settings you activated so that you don’t have to do that again.
(5) The data processed by cookies are necessary for the stated purposes to protect our legitimate interests and those of third parties pursuant to Art. 6 (1) f GDPR.
(6) Cookies are accepted automatically by most browsers. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are saved on your computer or so that a message appears every time before a new cookie is created. However, if you disable cookies completely, you may possibly no longer be able to use all the functions of our Website.
(1) This website uses the web analysis service Piwik to analyse the use of our website so that regular improvements can be made. The corresponding statistics let us improve our service and make it more interesting for you as user. The legal basis for using Piwik is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
(3) This website uses Piwik with the “AnonymizeIP” setting. As a result, the IP addresses are only used in abbreviated form in order to eliminate direct reference to persons. Your IP address transmitted with Piwik will not be associated with any other data held by us.
(4) Piwik is an open source project. Information about the third-party provider regarding data protection can be found on https://piwik.org/privacy/policy.
(1) We currently use the following social media plug-ins: [Facebook, Xing, LinkedIn]. In doing so, we use the so-called two-click solution. That means when you visit our website, in principle no personal data are forwarded initially to the providers of the plug-ins. You can recognise the provider of the plug-in by the marking on the box over his initial letter or the logo. We offer you the possibility of communicating directly with the provider of the plug-in by pressing the button. You have to click on the marked field to activate it before the plug-in provider is informed that you have accessed the corresponding page of our website. In addition, the data named under § 3 of this statement are transferred. In case of Facebook and Xing, the IP address is rendered anonymous immediately, according to the respective providers in Germany. In other words, on activating the plug-in, your personal data are transmitted to the respective plug-in provider and saved there (in the USA for US-American providers). The plug-in provider collects data especially using cookies so that we advise you to erase all cookies using the security settings of your browser before you click on the greyed out box.
(2) We have no influence on the collected data and data processing, nor do we know the full scope of data collection, the purposes of processing or the storage periods. Nor do we have any information about erasing the collected data by the plug-in provider.
(3) The plug-in provider saves the data collected about you as a use profile which is then implemented for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or appropriate design of his website. This kind of evaluation is carried out particularly to display appropriate advertising (even for users that have not logged on) and to inform other social network users about your activities on our website. You are entitled to object to the generation of these user profiles: to do so, you must contact the respective plug-in provider. With these plug-ins, we offer you the possibility of interacting with the social networks and other users so that we can improve our website and make it more interesting for you as user. The legal basis for using the plug-ins is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
(4) The data are forwarded regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and have logged in. If you have logged in with the plug-in provider, your data collected on our website are associated directly with your existing account with the plug-in provider. When you press the activated button and e.g. link the page, the plug-in provider also saves this information on your user account and shares it publicly with your contacts. We recommend that you log off regularly after using a social network, but especially before activating the button, so that you can prevent any association with your profile with the plug-in provider.
(5) More information about the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by the plug-in provider can be found in the privacy policies of these providers as stated below. Here you can also find more information about your corresponding rights and how you can adjust the settings to protect your privacy.

(1) We have integrated some YouTube clips on our website. The clips are saved on https://www.YouTube.com and can be played directly from our website. The clips have all been integrated in “extended data protection mode”. Accordingly, no data about you as user are transferred to YouTube if you do not play the clips.

(2) On visiting the website, YouTube is informed that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. In addition, the data named under § 3 of this statement are transferred. This happens regardless of whether you are logged on via a YouTube user account or whether no user account exists. If you are logged on to Google, your data are associated directly to your account. If you do not want to be associated with your profile on YouTube, you must log out before pressing the button. YouTube saves your data as use profile for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or appropriate design of its website. This kind of evaluation is carried out particularly to display appropriate advertising (even for users that have not logged on) and to inform other social network users about your activities on our website. You are entitled to object to the generation of these user profiles: to do so, you must contact YouTube.
(1) In addition to the purely informational use of our website, we also offer various services which you can use if these are of interest to you. As a rule, you will then have to give additional personal data that we use to provide the respective service and which are subject to the principles of data processing named above.
(2) In some cases, we use external service providers to process your data. We have selected these service providers carefully and commissioned them accordingly. They are required to act in compliance with our instructions and are checked regularly.
(3) Furthermore, we can forward your personal data to third parties if necessary for contract management, for asserting our rights, especially asserting claims arising from contractual relationships and for protecting our own legitimate business interests in terms of advising and supporting our customers, and when we offer the conclusion of contracts or similar services together with partners. You will receive more information about this when you state your personal data; further details can also be found below in the description of the offer.
(4) Insofar as our service provider or partner should be based in a state outside the European Economic Area (EWR), we will inform you about the resulting consequences in the description of the offer.
We reserve the right to update this data protection statement from time to time, particularly to incorporate changing legislation or jurisprudence. You are therefore advised to visit this website regularly to keep informed about the protection and processing of your data.
Here at Schoeller we also take data protection within the company very seriously.
The pertinent statutory regulations demand that personal data are processed so as to warrant the rights of the data subjects to the confidentiality and integrity of their data. According to these regulations, it is forbidden to proceed with unauthorised or unlawful processing of personal data or to intentionally or unintentionally violate the security of processing in such a way that causes destruction, loss, alteration or unintentional disclosure or unauthorised access.
We have therefore obtained a commitment from our employees to maintain confidentiality and in particular to comply with the data protection regulations for upholding confidentiality pursuant to Art. 5 (1) f, Art. 32 (4) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Accordingly, the employees are forbidden from proceeding with unauthorised processing of personal data or to use them or make them available to third parties in any form. When external service providers are commissioned by Schoeller to proceed with the processing of personal data for the first time, they are bound by contract to comply with the requirements of Art. 28 GDPR.
