III. Data processing on dermalog.com
The scope and type of the collection, processing, and use of your personal data differs according to whether you contact us via our website and use the tools and features offered on our website or use our website purely for information purposes.
1. Collection with your cooperation
We collect and store your personal data in connection with the use of our website when you provide this information to us on your own initiative. Without special consent, we only use such personal data to enable the processing of your respective request. It always remains your voluntary decision as to whether you communicate your data for the relevant purposes. Insofar as the nature of your request allows, you may also appear to us anonymously or by using a pseudonym. As a general rule, we will only store your data as long as is necessary for processing your request, provided that we are not authorised or obligated to continue such storage by law.
As a consequence, we wish to inform you about data processing within the framework of the contact interfaces offered to you on our website. In this regard, you may assert your rights as a data subject (see on this, item IV) at any time.

2. Collection without your cooperation
2.1 Functional purposes
In the case of use of our website for purely informational purposes, we collect and use the access data automatically transmitted to us by your Internet browser and store this in our so-called log file on the server. This involves the client's file request, the date and time of the requested page view, the success of the page retrieval, the transferred quantity of data, the type of browser you used and the version, the operating system you use and also the IP address assigned to you by the provider, and the webpage from which you visit us. This data is technically necessary to operate our website on the Web server. In addition, the short-term storage of log files is expedient in order to subsequently investigate attempted attacks on the Web server or any misuse. Accordingly, our legitimate interest in this data processing consists of enabling us to provide you with our offers on the basis of these conditions (legal basis: Art. 6 par. 1 f) DSGVO). Your personal data shall be deleted if it is no longer required for this purpose.
We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are text files that are stored in your browser when you visit our website and that collect information about your use of our website. This information assists us in better understanding user requirements and the technical behaviour of our website in order to improve, based on this information, the content, operability and functionality of the website. Cookies do not damage your computer and do not contain any viruses. The cookies used on our website are primarily so-called session cookies that are automatically deleted when you close the browser. They create a so-called session ID for your browser with which various browser requests of your browser can be matched to a session so that you are recognized once again when you return with a browser to our website. The session cookies are deleted when you close the browser.
You have the option to set your browser so that these cookies are not stored in the first place, or so that the cookies are deleted at the end of your Internet session. However, in this case please note that where applicable, you cannot use all of the functions of our web pages.
2.3 Web analysis services
At dermalog.com, Google Universal Analytics is used, which is a web analysis service of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). Google Universal Analytics uses cookies. Through this, it is possible to assign data, sessions, and interactions across the terminal devices used to a generated user ID on the basis of a pseudonym, and to thus analyse your usage behaviour across devices. The information generated by the cookies about your use of our website will be routinely transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, due to the activation of IP anonymising (“IP-Masking”) on our website, your IP address will be abbreviated by Google within the member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be abbreviated only after being transferred to the USA. For these cases, Google has agreed to be subject to the EU-US-Privacy-Shield. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics shall not be combined with other data of Google. Google uses the information obtained through the application of cookies on our behalf to analyse your use of our website, in order to compile reports concerning website activities, and to render additional services to us associated with use of the website and the Internet. Therein lies our legitimate interest in the data processing by engagement of Google as the processor (legal basis: Art. 6 par. 1 f) DSGVO). We have concluded a corresponding agreement for order processing with Google according to Art. 28 DSGVO that ensures that Google will only process your personal data on our behalf, strictly subject to our instructions, and in accordance with applicable data protection law. You may prevent the storage of cookies by means of an appropriate setting in your browser. Nevertheless, we are permitted to note that in this case you may be unable, where applicable, to use all functions of the website to the full extent. Furthermore, you can prevent gathering and processing of the previously described data by Google in that you download and install a browser plug-in available here. Apart from that, you can obtain an opt out cookie here through the installation of which you prevent data gathering by Google, which is helpful in particular in those cases in which the deactivation add-on does not function, for example, on mobile terminal devices. If you use our website with various browsers/terminal devices, the steps described are required for all browsers/terminal devices.
