For PONS GmbH (referred to below as the "publishing company") the protection of the personal data of our customers is a matter of the greatest importance. We are committed to ensuring that you can rely on the protection of your personal data by our company at all times, and know how our company both uses your data and ensures its protection.
This privacy policy informs you about the processing of personal data (referred to below as the "data") by our company when you make use of the services offered by our websites.
Your data is processed and used in compliance with the applicable statutory regulations, in particular the General Data Protection Regulation (referred to below as the "GDPR").
When you place an order with one of our online shops (www.pons.de, langenscheidt.com, klett-lerntraining.de), the data required for the establishment of a contract and the processing of the order is recorded. The data includes your first name and surname, invoice address and, if necessary, the delivery address, as well as your email address and, if available, the relevant educational institution. The data will be processed for the purpose of assigning the order to you as well as for the delivery of the goods and, if necessary, sending an invoice, together with the processing of payment and clarification of possible legal claims. If you order media on concessionary terms, we also process your data in order to check if the preconditions for this are met.
The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Section 1 b GDPR. If you wish you can create a customer account for future orders (registration). In this case your customer data is saved so that it can also be used for future orders placed with one of our online shops, without you having to enter it once more. When you register an account you also need to set a password (access data), so that access to this account is only available to you. In accordance with Art. 6 Section 1 b GDPR, we have the right to process the data you provide on registration, to the extent that this is necessary for the establishment or fulfilment of a contract. In addition we may process your data in accordance with Art. 6 Section 1 f GDPR for the purpose of simplifying your future orders.
If you have provided your consent we are also permitted, in accordance with Art. 6 Section 1 a and if relevant 1 f GDPR, to process any data which you have voluntarily provided us with when placing an order or registering an account. Such data may refer to your company/school and similar details, for example. The processing of these voluntarily provided details is implemented so that we can get in touch with you faster in the event of supply problems. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Section 1 a and if relevant Section 1 f GDPR.
We pass on data, at least in part, to the following external contract processors and other recipients for the purposes described below:
Data is passed on to contract processors for the purposes of hosting and maintaining our website, providing quality assurance or within the scope of any email services used.
In relation to orders placed with our webshops we are jointly responsible for the processing of your data together with Stuttgarter Verlagskontor GmbH, Rotebühlstr. 77, 70178 Stuttgart (referred to below as "SVK"). SVK accepts the order, maintains the customer database, sends off the goods, issues the invoice and collects the invoice amount in its own name and for its own account ("non-recourse factoring"). We therefore pass on your order data to SVK for this purpose.
Orders from the following countries are passed on to our partners in these countries:
Ernst Klett AG, Rotebühlstr. 77, D-70178 Stuttgart, is responsible for providing uniform legal advice in relation to the division of working cooperation within the Klett Bildungsgruppe organisation. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Section 1 f GDPR. In an agreement on joint responsibility in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR we have agreed with the company which party will fulfill the various applicable data protection obligations. We will make the essential content of this agreement available to you on request.
We have the right to save data until the final fulfilment of the individual contract. In the case of purchase contracts, we are permitted to save data until the receipt of payment and for a period of up to 2 years after the goods have been delivered. If the saving of data is necessary for the purpose of compliance with our legal obligations in accordance with Art. 6 Section 1 c GDPR, in conjunction with Germany's Commercial Code or tax regulations, we have the right to save such data until the expiry of the retention periods which the applicable laws and regulations stipulate. This can lead to a retention period of up to 7 years. Unless we have the right or obligation to retain the data for a longer period of time for the reasons which are outlined above, the data you enter when you register an account with us will either be deleted as soon as possible at your request, or at the latest 4 years after you place your last order.
In rare cases we also use your data to send you advertising by post or email for our products, provided that you have been a customer for three years, have provided us with your postal or email address, and have not refused your consent to such advertising (with regard to your right of objection, please see 5.4). The processing of your data is implemented on the basis of Art. 6 Section 1 f GDPR. We have a legitimate business interest in sending advertising by post or email to our customer base.
In accordance with Art. 6 Section 1 a GDPR, we can process the data you have entered on our contact form, provided that you have given your consent to this by clicking on the "Send message" button. If you enter sensitive information in the "Message" field which contains specific categories of data (e.g. your origins, political opinions, religion, medical data), you also give your consent to the processing of such data. If you send us the data by email or in some other form, the legal basis will be Art. 6 Section 1 f and if relevant Section 1 b GDPR.
The data concerned will be deleted at the latest 24 months after the receipt of your enquiry, unless we are entitled or obliged to save it for a longer period on the basis of legal requirements in conjunction with Art. 6 Section 1 c GDPR. This may lead to a maximum retention period of 7 years.
We provide your contact enquiry to the external contract processors stated under 4.1 and 4.6.1, and if appropriate also to the following recipients:
Amevida Freiburg GmbH Zinkmattenstraße 6a, 79108 Freiburg.

If you take up employment with us on the conclusion of the application process, the processing of your data beyond this time is permitted in accordance with the above legal basis for the purpose of establishing and implementing an employment relationship.

4.6 Visitors to our websites
When you visit our websites, the following details are saved in a log file:
It is necessary for a large part of this data to be saved for technical reasons, so that the website can be displayed on your device, as well as to ensure system security. In addition, the above data is evaluated in anonymised form for statistical purposes and for the purpose of optimising our website. We do not link this data with your other personal data.

On our websites we use external web fonts, so-called "Google Web Fonts" on our website. Google Fonts is a service provided by Google Inc. "("Google").

The IP address of the browser used by the terminal device of the visitor to the individual website is also stored by Google. For more information, please refer to Google's privacy policy, which can be found here:
The integration is based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 Section 1 f GDPR) in a technically secure, maintenance-free and efficient use of fonts, their uniform presentation and taking into account possible licensing restrictions connected with their integration.
4.6.3 Use of cookies
In order to make visiting our websites attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called "cookies" on various pages. These are small text files that are stored on your device.
