Data protection - TKL
Subject matter of this statement is the collection, processing and use (utilization) of personal data gathered when making use of the TKL range of products and services. We are delighted at your interest in our website. Below you will find information on how your data is handled.
The responsible authority in terms of the data protection law is TKL (see legal notice). Mr Joachim Ludwig is the person in charge of all data privacy issues. If you have questions concerning the utilization of your personal data or you want to make use of the legal remedy described here, just fill out the contact form. Naturally, it is also possible to deploy the TKL range of products and services without providing personal information. In that event only access data without personal references is gathered (e.g. name of the internet provider, used browser type, the site where from you started looking for the product or the name of the requested file); this makes tracing you impossible. This data is used exclusively for the improvement of our products and services.
Personal data is collected when you initiate the participation in a seminar, request a catalogue or sign up for a newsletter; gathered for this are your personal details and the data required for processing. From this information only those details required for the contractual relationship are regarded and designed as compulsory statements. If you use recurring functions, TKL automatically gathers and saves technical information from your browser in the server logs. This particularly relates to data deposited with so-called cookies (cf. paragraph "Cookies") and required for service functions.
TKL uses the gathered data for four primary purposes, although actually not all data is used for all purposes:
TKL only ever transmits your personal data to third parties if:
2. If and when in a given case we have a legitimate interest in transmitting your personal data to third parties within the limits of the law, who are authorized to carry out validity checks of the entered data (such as credit card information, banking details etc.) and for credit scoring. In doing so, the information is only transferred to parties required for processing. This might include the stated bank as well as the following companies, TKL is working with:
Cookies are files stored on a computer's hard disk to simplify navigation. They render a renewed manual input of all required information for each individual time of use unnecessary. Cookies simplify the usage of the TKL range of products and services. You can prevent cookies from being stored on your hard disk by selecting "Accept no cookies" in your browser settings. You can also set your browser to request your consent before setting cookies. After all, it is also possible to delete set cookies any time. For details on how this can be done, please see the instructions of your browser manufacturer.
Naturally, you are entitled to request access to your stored personal data from TKL at any time free of charge. Provided you are registered, the data can be found in your user account and there can be corrected, blocked or deleted any time. Please note that the data stored offline will only be deleted when they are no longer required to handle the contractual relationship. If you are not registered, please send the request in a mail using the contact form. If you want us to permanently delete your user account, please send us an e-mail via the contact form (cf. paragraph "Deletion of data").
Should you have given your consent for the newsletter subscription or to receive advertising material within the scope of the TKL range of products and services, you can revoke this consent any time with future effect. Please use our contact form to revoke your consent.
TKL constantly endeavours to protect your data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse or destruction. Your personal data is only accessible to those employees, who necessarily have to see your data in order to carry out their work properly and to be able to offer you services and products in the best possible way. Sensitive data is transmitted to TKL using SSL encryption. Registered customers can only access their customer account after entering user name and password; you should therefore always treat your access information confidentially and not make it available to third parties. Before opening another website we also recommend closing your browser window completely after each usage of the TKL range of products and services requiring login; particularly if you use the computer with another person, other people can access your computer or you are using a public internet connection.
The TKL website also uses so-called plugins. If you call up TKL websites featuring such plugins, a connection to the servers of the respective plugin provider is established and the plugin is displayed on the website via a message to your browser. Through this, information regarding which websites you have visited is passed on to the plugin provider's server. If you are registered with the plugin provider, it is possible to assign this information to your personal user account. When using plugin functions (e.g. clicking a button, leaving a comment), this information too might be assigned to your user account, which can however be prevented by logging off prior to using the plugin.
10. For individual offers TKL uses the coupon system of the Sovendus GmbH
For the purpose of selecting a coupon offer that is currently relevant for you TKL pseudonymizes the hash value of your e-mail address and transmits it along with your IP address in encrypted form to Sovendus: Sovendus GmbH, Moltkestr. 11, 76133 Karlsruhe (art. 6 para. 1 lit. f of the GDPR). The pseudonymized hash value of the e-mail address is used to consider a possibly existing objection to receive advertising material from Sovendus (art. 21 para. 3, art. 6 para. 1 lit. c of the GDPR). Sovendus will only use the IP address for data security purposes; as a rule it will be anonymized after seven days (art. 6 para. 1 lit. f of the GDPR). Furthermore, we will transmit the order number, order value with currency, session ID, coupon code and time stamp to Sovendus in pseudonymized form for billing purposes as well (art. 6 para. 1 lit. f of the GDPR). If you are interested in one of the Sovendus coupon offers and there is no existing objection to receive their advertising material, you can click on the coupon banner (only displayed if the stated conditions are met); then TKL will transmit your title, name and e-mail address to Sovendus in encrypted form in order for them to prepare the coupon (art. 6 para. 1 lit. b, f of the GDPR).
11. For individual offers TKL uses the special offers of the Sovendus GmbH
For the purpose of selecting a regional special offer that is relevant for you TKL pseudonymizes and encrypts certain information (such as your title, year of birth, country, post/zip code, the hash value of your e-mail address and your IP address) and transmits it to Sovendus: Sovendus GmbH, Moltkestr. 11, 76133 Karlsruhe (art. 6 para. 1 lit. f of the GDPR). The pseudonymized hash value of the e-mail address is also used to consider a possibly existing objection to receive advertising material from Sovendus (art. 21 para. 3, art. 6 para. 1 lit. c of the GDPR). Sovendus will only use the IP address for data security purposes; as a rule it will be anonymized after seven days (art. 6 para. 1 lit. f of the GDPR).
