4.7. Cookies and marketing tools

Cookies are alphanumeric identification characters (small text files) which are either stored briefly in your working memory and then deleted again as soon as you close your browser (“session cookies”) or stored in your storage medium over a longer period or for an unlimited period of time (“permanent cookies”). They can be subdivided into the following categories:
4.7.1.1. Necessary cookies
We use cookies that are strictly necessary from a technical perspective to hold the connection while you visit our website, to guarantee the security of communications and to protect our systems against attack. Without these cookies it is not possible to provide the website. The website cannot function securely without these cookies.

Alternatively, in your browser settings, you can refuse to allow cookies in general, erase them from your computer, block them or activate the function that ensures you are always asked before a cookie is set.

4.8. Inclusion of Youtube videos
We incorporate videos from “YouTube”, the platform provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Information on the use of the data by Google when videos are viewed, is provided in the Google privacy policy:
https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/ and in the Youtube terms of use: https://www.youtube.com/static?gl=DE&template=terms&hl=de.
When a YouTube video is viewed, personal data is generally transferred by means of cookies to YouTube and to the Google tracking service DoubleClick, so as to enable the user behaviour to be analysed. In this case, cookies are already set every time the website is viewed, with the effect that Google is, in principle, able to collate all of the pages you have visited as a user, in order to compile a profile. It cannot, therefore, be ruled out that this data that is stored by the respective network is assigned to an individual person.
It is possible that by viewing YouTube videos, your data could be transferred to servers in third countries, e.g. in the USA. The responsibility for operating in compliance with data protection regulations has to be guaranteed by the respective provider. We point out that Google LLC complies with the requirements of both the so-called EU-US Privacy Shield and also those of the Swiss-US Privacy Shield. These are treaties between the United States and the European Union and the United States and Switzerland, guaranteeing that the level of data protection stipulated in the European Union is also complied with by the relevant undertakings domiciled and certified in the USA. Further explanations are available at: https://www.privacyshield.gov/. You can retrieve the list of certified undertakings from: www.privacyshield.gov/list. We do, however, advise of the following: Even if undertakings in the USA have subjected themselves to the EU-US Privacy Shield (see list of the undertakings at: www.privacyshield.gov/list) or to the EU standard contract clauses, and have thus undertaken to comply with the data protection rules specified in the contract, the transmission of data to countries outside Europe, especially to the USA, nonetheless involves risks under data protection law.
This use of your data by Google is conditional upon your consent. You give this consent in connection with the cookie consent or, in an individual case, by accepting data processing by Google by clicking on the video interface.
By means of our software solution, there is only a transmission of data to Google if you allow only the Youtube cookies or if you allow all social media cookies. Google may not collect any data from you beforehand. This thus ensures that you can use our offer without making your data available to Google.
Your consent is voluntary, as you can already choose in the cookie settings [https://www.animationproductiondays.de/] whether you agree to allowing cookies to be set by Youtube or not. It is up to you to decide not to allow Youtube cookies. Please bear in mind that in this case Youtube content cannot be displayed on our website.
You can withdraw your consent at any time. In order to prevent the transmission of data to Google without activating the video, you can block Youtube cookies at any time in the cookie settings [https://www.animationproductiondays.de/]. The resultant effect is that no data is transferred to Google, but you cannot be shown any videos either. You can still watch the video if you accept the data transmission to Youtube by clicking on the link on the blocked video user interface.
The legal basis for this processing of your data is your consent (Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (a) GDPR).
On our website we use “Google Maps”, an online map service offered by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”).
Google Maps enables us to show you our location via an interactive map on the website and to give you travel directions to us.
As a rule, information on your use of our website (such as your IP address) is already transmitted to Google servers and stored there as soon as you retrieve the subpages which the map from Google Maps is embedded in. In this connection there can also be a transmission to the Google LLC servers in the USA. This happens regardless of whether you are logged into Google via a user account or not.
No data is transmitted to Google Maps unless you have given your consent. In the cookie settings you can withdraw your consent at any time. If you do not grant us your consent to the inclusion of Google Maps, we use a special software solution which prevents the transmission of data to Google. The effect this has is that when you click on the map in Google Maps, you are transferred to a link first of all and only by clicking on this link after receiving data privacy instructions is the information sent to Google. Please only click on the map if you are in agreement with your data being transferred to Google and being used by Google as described below. If you do not activate the link there is no transmission of your data to Google.
Google uses the following data to determine the location:
Sensor data of the device you use
Information on objects in the vicinity of your device, e.g. any Wi-Fi access points, radio masts and Bluetooth-enabled devices
The type of location data collected by Google depends on the specific settings on your devices and accounts. You can, for example, activate and deactivate the location data via the “settings” App on your device.
If you are logged into Google, your data is assigned directly to your account. If you do not wish to have an assignment to your Google profile, you have to log out before you activate the button. Even if you are not logged in, Google stores your data as user profiles and evaluates it especially for (personalised) advertising and market research. You have the right to object to these user profiles being created; however, you have to contact Google to exercise this right.
We point out that Google LLC complies with the requirements of both the so-called EU-US Privacy Shield and also those of the Swiss-US Privacy Shield. These are treaties between the United States and the European Union and the United States and Switzerland, guaranteeing that the level of data protection stipulated in the European Union is also complied with by the relevant undertakings domiciled and certified in the USA. Further explanations are available at: https://www.privacyshield.gov/. You can view the list of certified undertakings at: www.privacyshield.gov/list. We do, however, advise you that, even if undertakings in the USA have subjected themselves to the EU-US Privacy Shield and have thus undertaken to comply with the data protection rules specified in the treaty, the transmission of data to countries outside Europe, especially to the USA, can nonetheless involve risks under data protection law due to the possibilities of access by the state. Only if you have given your consent is your data transferred to Google as an exception.
Extensive information on data protection by Google (“Google Privacy Policy”) is provided on the Google website: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de, the additional terms of use for Google Maps can be found at: https://www.google.com/intl/de_US/help/terms_maps.html.
If you are not in agreement with your data being transferred to Google in connection with the use of Google Maps in future, you do have the possibility of fully deactivating the Google Maps web service at any time by switching off the application of JavaScript in your browser. You cannot then use Google Maps or the map display on this Internet site. The following examples describe how you can deactivate JavaScript in the common browser Internet Explorer Version 9 or higher, Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari:
Internet Explorer Version 9 or higher:
Click on “Tools” in the browser and then select the “Internet Options”.
Change to the “Security” tab in the next window.
Now press on “Custom level…” in the “Security” tab.
When the dialogue window “Security Settings – Internet Zone” opens, scroll to the section “Scripting”.
In “Active Scripting” select the option “Disable”.
A “Warning!” window now opens and asks you “Are you sure you want to change the settings for this zone?” – select “Yes”.
After returning to “Internet Options”, click on OK to store the settings and close the window.
Now click on the “Refresh” button on your browser to reload the page.
In Firefox, type “about:config” in the address bar, then press “Enter”.
Double-click the “javascript.enabled” line to switch the setting between “true” and “false” as desired.
Select “Settings” from the main menu (three dots) in the top right corner of the browser.
Click “Site Settings” under the sub-heading “Privacy & Security”.
Click “JavaScript”.
You can choose to switch “enable all” or “disable all” or you can add sites to an allow list or block list.
Open the Safari menu and click “Preferences”.
Remove the check from the box in front of “Enable JavaScript” to disable the feature.
Additional information on restricting data use by Google Maps e.g. on deactivating and activating the location memory for certain devices and on deactivation or activation for specific Apps is available here:
We use Google Maps to be able to show you the interactive maps of Google Maps and to thus improve your sense of direction regarding our location and make it easier for you to find us. The legal basis is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (a) GDPR.
We use content delivery networks to design a particularly appealing website for you and to simultaneously reduce the website loading time. In this connection, content of our website, for instance fonts and images, is provided on external third-party servers. We use content of the provider “Cloudflare”.
We use animation libraries of Cloudflare, a Content Delivery Network of Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA.
When you visit our website, Cloudflare collects your IP address, your system configurations and other information on the traffic to and from Cloudflare customer websites.
We point out that Cloudflare complies with the requirements of both the so-called EU-US Privacy Shield and also those of the Swiss-US Privacy Shield. These are treaties between the United States and the European Union and the United States and Switzerland, guaranteeing that the level of data protection stipulated in the European Union is also complied with by the relevant undertakings domiciled and certified in the USA. Further explanations are available at: https://www.privacyshield.gov/. You can view the list of certified undertakings at: www.privacyshield.gov/list. We do, however, advise you that, even if undertakings in the USA have subjected themselves to the EU-US Privacy Shield and have thus undertaken to comply with the data protection rules specified in the treaty, the transmission of data to countries outside Europe, especially to the USA, can nonetheless involve risks under data protection law due to the possibilities of access by the state.
You can find extensive information on the privacy policy of Cloudflare on the Cloudflare website: https://www.cloudflare.com/de-de/privacypolicy/.
The legal basis for the use of this content delivery network is our legitimate interest in providing you with an appealing and fast-loading website (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).
4.11. Job applications
If you send us your application through the postal service, by e-mail or telefax, we collect, store and process the contact data you specifically provide us with, e.g. your name, address and telephone number, your telefax number and your e-mail address, in order to use it to be able to communicate with you during the course of the application process. Your full application documentation and other documentation provided during the course of the application process, and our records, will also be handled in confidence and protected against access when stored. Documents on paper will be protected against access when stored. We process your application documentation in order to be able to assess your specialist aptitude, qualification and ability for the position you have applied for, and so as to have a basis on which to make our selection decision.
If your application documentation should contain special categories of personal data, for instance information on your health, your religious beliefs or ethnic origin, we shall base our processing of such documentation on our statutory obligations as an employer and on the protection of your fundamental rights associated therewith and thus, in addition, on Art. 9 (2) (b) GDPR. Additionally, we also process your information on the basis of Art. 9 (2) (h) GDPR in order to be able to assess the working capacity of potential employees and, if appropriate, to take preventive or occupational medicine measures.
If the outcome of the application process is successful, we will use and process your documentation and data in the context of your employment relationship. You will be given separate information in this respect. Otherwise the application process will end when a letter of rejection addressed to you is dispatched.
Your data will be erased no later than four months after our letter of rejection is dispatched and any copies existing on paper will be correctly destroyed and disposed of or returned to you, unless a longer storage period is necessary in order to defend against any legal claims or to perform a statutory obligation. Naturally we will proceed in the same manner if you advise us that you wish to retract your application.
If, after your application is rejected, you would like us to consider you in a subsequent selection process, we will store your application documentation if you have given us your statement of consent in writing. If appropriate, we will obtain this from you separately. The legal basis for this continued storage and processing of your personal data is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (a) GDPR. This data will be routinely erased after two years or in the event of your withdrawal of consent, which is possible at any time, unless a longer storage period is necessary in order to defend against any legal claims or to perform a legal obligation.
The legal basis for collecting and processing your data in connection with the application process is, in principle, the need to have it for a decision on establishing an employment relationship (Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (b) GDPR; section 26 (1) sentence 1 BDSG) and our legitimate interest in using it for the purpose of the proper conduct of the application process (Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (f) GDPR). In the event of special categories of personal data, the legal basis is Art. 9 (2) (b) and (h) GDPR (see above).

5.3 Payment Service Provider Stripe
We use the payment service provider Stripe to process the payment. When processing payments via the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland, we pass on the information you provide during the ordering process and the information about your order, in particular:
Currency and transaction number
on the legal basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b Pass on GDPR. Your data will only be passed on for the purpose of payment processing with the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd. and only to the extent that it is necessary for this. You can find more information on Stripe’s data protection at the URL https://stripe.com/de/privacy#translation.
6. Encryption / data security
6.1. Your data is always encrypted by means of TLS encryption (so-called Transport Layer Security) when it is collected, processed and used. TLS is implemented to encrypt the continual flow of data on the Internet between the server and a user’s browser and to thus prevent any “eavesdropping and data being secretly retrieved” – insofar as this is technically feasible. One of the ways to tell that a connection is encrypted, is if the URL in your browser’s address bar starts with “https://” and/or if the status bar at the bottom of your web browser shows a “lock” or “key” symbol (icon). By clicking on the icon, depending on the browser you use, you can receive further information on the encryption and on the TLS certificate used.
6.2. We point out that it is not possible to fully guarantee data security during e-mail communications. For transmitting confidential information, it might be preferable to use the postal service or service by a courier.
6.3. Furthermore, we apply all reasonable, suitable, technical and organisational security measures to protect your data against accidental or deliberate manipulation, full or partial loss, destruction and unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are subject to on-going improvement and further development in accordance with technological developments.
7. Erasure of the data / restriction of data processing
Your data will be erased, in principle, if your consent has discontinued or if the data is no longer required for the purpose of the data processing and if there is no other legal basis for or justified interest in continued storage and processing. If, however, this data still has to be stored due to existing statutory or contractual obligations or requirements of public authorities (e.g. warranty, financial book­keeping), then data processing is restricted by marking and blocking the data. In the event that the purpose of the data processing is changed compared with the original purpose, we shall inform you of this in a manner that is in conformity with data protection law and comply with the requirements of data protection law.
As the data subject whose data is being processed, you are entitled to the following rights:
Right to be given information (Art. 15 GDPR)
You have the right to obtain information from us on the personal data stored on you. This encompasses, in particular, information on the purposes of the processing, the categories of the personal data processed, the categories of recipient to whom the processed personal data has been or will be disclosed, the period of storage, the existence of the right to rectification or erasure of personal data, to restriction of processing and to object to such processing, the existence of a right to lodge a complaint, the source of your data if it was not collected by us, and the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, and, if applicable, meaningful information on the details. You further have the right to receive a copy of your personal data undergoing processing by us.
You have the right to obtain from us the erasure of your personal data, subject to the statutory requirements. If such erasure is prejudiced by statutory storage obligations or storage requirements of public authorities or where the processing is necessary for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, the processing of the data will be restricted (see below).
You have the right to demand of us, subject to the statutory requirements, that we restrict the processing of your personal data, i.e. mark the data and restrict the future processing of it (blocking).
You have the right, subject to the statutory requirements, to require us to transmit to you, or to another controller named by you, the personal data concerning you, which you provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.
Right to object to data processing if the legal ground is a “legitimate interest” (Art. 21 GDPR)
You have the right to object at any time to the processing of the data by us if the legal basis for this is a “legitimate interest”. We will then discontinue the processing of the data unless we are able to demonstrate, in accordance with the legal stipulations, compelling legitimate grounds for the continued processing which override your rights.
If you have given us your consent to the collection and processing of your data, you may withdraw this consent at any time with effect for the future. The lawfulness of processing your data in the past up until the time of your withdrawal of consent shall remain unaffected by this.
You may lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority if you are of the opinion that the processing of your data is infringing applicable law. For this you have the right to approach the competent data protection authority at your habitual residence or in your country or the data protection authority with competence for us.
9. Competent supervisory authority
The supervisory authority with competence for us is the
State Officer for data protection and
freedom of information of the German State of Baden-Württemberg
