Connect Global
Startup Europe Ambassador
Connect Global GmbH ("Connect Global"/”We”) takes the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz).
I. General information on data processing
The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data; apart from the collection of data for the provision of the website (the storage of the data in logfiles is mandatory for the operation of the website). Insofar as personal data (e. g. name, address or e-mail addresses or other data) are collected on our website, this is always done on a voluntary basis as far as possible. These data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent. This privacy policy shall inform you on how we collect, process and use your personal data in connection with our services as well as the legal basis for the processing of personal data and the purpose of the data processing.
Connect Global collects, processes and uses the personal data of its users only insofar as this is necessary for the provision of a functional website as well as its content and services. The collection and use of our users' personal data is regularly only carried out with the user's prior consent. An exception shall apply in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and where the processing of data is permitted by legal regulations.
Insofar as Connect Global obtains the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data. Article 6 para. lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party. This shall also apply to processing operations necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. Insofar as a processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation to which Connect Global is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR serves as a legal basis. In the event that the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person necessitate the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis. If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the party concerned do not outweigh the first mentioned interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
3. Data erasure and storage duration
II. Provision of the website and creation of logfiles
Every time you visit our website, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the calling computer.
- the internet service provider of the user
- the IP address of the user
- hostname of the accessing computer
- time of the server inquiry
- websites from which the user's system reaches our website
- websites accessed by the user's system via our website
The data is also stored in the logfiles of our system. These data are not stored together with other personal data of the user and is not combined with other data sources.
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the website to be delivered to the user's computer. The storage in logfiles is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data is used to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.
For this purpose, the user's IP address must be stored for the duration of the session.
Our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR also lies in these purposes.
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended. The storage of data in logfiles will be done after seven days at the latest. Additional storage is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or changed, so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.
5. Possibility of opposition and elimination
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of the data in logfiles is mandatory for the operation of the website.
Consequently, there is no possibility of objection on the part of the user.
III. Use of cookies
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in the Internet browser or by the Internet browser on the user's computer system. If a user visits a website, a cookie may be stored on the user's operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic character string that enables a unique identification of the browser when the website is called up again.
Cookies contain a characteristic string of characters that allows the browser to be uniquely identified when you return to the website.
We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some elements of our website require that the calling browser can be identified even after a page change.
- log-in-information
- frequency of page views
- use of website functions
The data collected in this way will be pseudonymised by technical precautions. It is therefore no longer possible to assign the data to the calling user. The data are not stored together with other personal data of the users.
When you visit our website, an information banner informs you about the use of cookies for analytical purposes and refers you to this data protection statement. In this context, there is also a note on how the storage of cookies can be prevented in the browser settings.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
The purpose of using technically necessary cookies is to simplify the use of websites for users. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies.
For this it is necessary that the browser is recognized even after a page change.
We need cookies for the following applications:
- Accepting language settings
- Remembering search terms
The user data collected by technically necessary cookies are not used to create user profiles.
The analysis cookies are used to improve the quality of our website and its content. Through the analysis cookies we learn how the website is used and can thus continuously optimize our offer.
4.Duration of storage
Most of the cookies we use are so-called "session cookies". They will be automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit our website.
You can set your browser in such a way that you are informed about the setting of cookies and allow cookies only in individual cases, you can exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or generally and you can activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. When cookies are disabled, the functionality of this website may be limited.
IV. Email contact
It is possible to contact us via the email addresses provided on the website. In this case, the personal data of the user transmitted by email will be stored. In this context, the data will not be passed on to third parties. The data will only be used for the processing of the conversation.
The legal basis for the processing of data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, if the user gives his/her consent. The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted by email is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If you contact us by email, this is also the reason for the necessary legitimate interest in processing the data.
The other personal data processed during the sending process is used to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.
The data will be stored as long as it is necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. For personal sent by email, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation ends when the circumstances indicate that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified. The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of seven days at the latest. The user has the possibility to revoke his or her consent to the processing of personal data at any time.
5.Possibility of opposition and elimination
If the user contacts us by email, he/she can object to the storage of his personal data at any time. In such a case, the conversation cannot continue. In this case, all personal data stored in the course of making contact will be deleted.
6. Measures of security
We will of course make every effort to store your personal data in such a way that they are not accessible to third parties by using all technical and organisational means. However, full data security cannot be guaranteed when communicating by email, so we recommend that you send confidential information by post.
Further, this site uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as requests you send to us as the site operator. An encrypted connection can be recognized by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and the lock symbol in your browser line. If SSL encryption is enabled, the information you provide to us cannot be read by third parties.
V. Rights of the person concerned
We make sure that every user of our website has the rights regarding his personal data as laid down in Artt. 12 to 22 GDPR. This particularly includes the right to demand information at any time about which data is stored about him or her and for what purpose this storage takes place.
If personal data is processed by you, you are affected within the meaning of the GDPR and you have the following rights vis-à-vis the person responsible. Please approach our data protection officer for any requests.

- the processing is unlawful and you refuse to delete the personal data and instead request the restriction of the use of the personal data;

- if you have lodged an objection against the processing pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate reasons of the person responsible outweigh your grounds.
Where the processing of personal data relating to you has been restricted, such data may not be processed except with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of an important public interest of the Union or of a Member State, except for their storage. If the restriction on processing has been restricted in accordance with the above-mentioned conditions, you will be informed by the person responsible before the restriction is lifted.
4. Right of deletion
a. Obligation to delete
You may demand that the person in charge of your personal data be deleted immediately and the person in charge is obliged to delete this data immediately if one of the following reasons applies:
- The personal data concerning you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
- You revoke your consent to the processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.

If the person in charge has made the personal data concerning you public and if he is obliged to delete them in accordance with Art. 17 para. 1 GDPR, he shall take appropriate measures, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, including technical measures, to inform those responsible for data processing who process the personal data that you, as the person concerned, have requested that they delete all links to these personal data or from copies or replicas of these personal data.
The right to be deleted does not exist if the processing is necessary

- processing shall be carried out by means of automated procedures. In exercising this right, you also have the right to obtain that the personal data concerning you are transmitted directly by one person in charge to another person in charge, as far as this is technically feasible. Freedoms and rights of other persons may not be affected thereby.
The right to transfer data shall not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task which is in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority delegated to the data controller.
7. Right of objection
For reasons arising from your particular situation, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you, which is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR.
You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of the consent does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to appeal to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State where you are resident, at your workplace or at the place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of the personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.
The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the state of play and the results of the complaint, including the possibility of legal remedy in accordance with Article 78 of the GDPR.
VI. Integration of third-party services and content
Insofar as we integrate third party content on our website the possibility to consume such content via our website presupposes that your IP address is transmitted to the providers of such content ("third party providers"). Otherwise, this content could not be sent to your browser. The IP address is therefore required for the presentation of this content. We make every effort to use only those contents whose respective providers use the IP address solely for sending the integrated contents. If a third party provider stores your IP address for other purposes, e. g. for statistical purposes, we have no influence on it and cannot provide you with any information in this regard due to a lack of knowledge.
VII. Google Analytics
This website uses the functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. Provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies". These are text files that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google will use this information to evaluate your use of our website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services associated with the use of the website and the Internet. Google may also transfer this information to third parties if required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google.

VIII. Facebook social plugins
Our website uses social plugins ("plugins") of the social network facebook. com, which is operated by Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Facebook"). The list and the appearance of the Facebook social plugins can be viewed here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/. When you access a feature of our website that includes such a plugin, your device establishes a direct connection to Facebook's servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted by Facebook directly to the user's device and is integrated into the Internet offer by the user. User profiles can be created from the processed data. We have no control over the amount of data that Facebook collects using this plug-in and can therefore only provide you with information on our level of knowledge. By integrating the plugin, Facebook receives the information that a user has called up a corresponding page on our website. If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can associate your visit with your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking on the Like button or by making a comment, the corresponding information is sent directly from your device to Facebook and stored there. If you are not a Facebook member, there is still the possibility that Facebook will find out your IP address and save it.
According to Facebook, only one anonymous IP address is stored in Germany. The scope and purpose of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook, as well as the rights and options for privacy protection in this respect, can be found in Facebook's privacy policy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy. If you are a Facebook member and do not want Facebook to collect information about Sei through our website and link it to your Facebook-membership information, you must log out/log out and delete your cookies before using our websites.
Further settings and inconsistencies regarding the use of data for advertising purposes can be made within the Facebook profile settings: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab-ads
or via the US-American site: http://www.aboutads.info/choices

With the help of the button it is possible to share a contribution or page of our offer on Twitter or to follow us on Twitter. When you access a page of our website that contains such a button, your browser establishes a direct connection with the servers of Twitter. Twitter sends the contents of the Twitter button directly to your browser. We have no influence on the amount of data that Twitter collects with the help of this plugin and will inform you according to our knowledge. Accordingly, only your IP address and the URL of the respective website will be transmitted with the button, but not used for purposes other than displaying the button.
