BELINT Welcome at Belintertrans-Germany GmbH HOME COMPANY LOGISTIC SERVICE IT-SERVICE CONTACT You are here: Home / Data Protection Policy Data Protection Policy Data protection data protection We have written this data protection declaration (version 19.03.2021-111681924) to explain to you, in accordance with the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679, what information we collect, how we use data and what choices you have as a visitor to this website . Privacy statements usually sound very technical. However, this version should describe the most important things to you as simply and clearly as possible. As far as possible, technical terms are explained in a reader-friendly manner. We would also like to convey that we only collect and use information with this website if there is a corresponding legal basis. That is certainly not possible if you give as brief, technical explanations as possible, as they are often standard on the Internet when it comes to data protection. I hope you find the following explanations interesting and informative and maybe there is one or the other piece of information that you were not familiar with. If you still have questions, we would like to ask you to follow the existing links and see further information on third-party sites, or simply write us an email. You will find our contact information in the imprint. Automatic data storage When you visit websites these days, certain information is automatically created and stored, including on this website. This collected data should be collected as sparingly as possible and only with justification. By website we mean the entirety of all websites on your domain, i.e. everything from the start page (homepage) to the very last subpage (like this one here). By domain we mean example.de or musterbeispiel.com. Even while you are currently visiting our website, our web server – this is the computer on which this website is stored – usually automatically saves data such as the complete Internet address (URL) of the website called up (e.g. https://www.beispielwebsite.de/beispieluntereite.html/) Browser and browser version (e.g. Chrome 87) the operating system used (e.g. Windows 10) the address (URL) of the previously visited page (referrer URL) (e.g. https://www.beispielquellsite.de/vondabinichgekommen.html/) the host name and the IP address of the device from which access is made (e.g. COMPUTERNAME and 194.23.43.121) Date and Time in files, the so-called web server log files. As an illustration: Browser and web server As a rule, these files are stored for two weeks and then automatically deleted. We do not pass on this data, but we cannot rule out that this data will be viewed by authorities in the event of illegal behavior. In short: your visit is logged by our provider (company that runs our website on special computers (servers)), but we do not pass on your data! Cookies Our website doesn’t use any HTTP cookies to save user-specific data. In the following we explain what cookies are and why they are used so that you can better understand the following data protection declaration. What exactly are cookies? Whenever you surf the Internet, you are using a browser. Well-known browsers are, for example, Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge. Most websites save small text files in your browser. These files are called cookies. One thing cannot be dismissed out of hand: Cookies are really useful little helpers. Almost all websites use cookies. More precisely, they are HTTP cookies, as there are also other cookies for other areas of application. HTTP cookies are small files that our website stores on your computer. These cookie files are automatically placed in the cookie folder, which is the “brain” of your browser. A cookie consists of a name and a value. When defining a cookie, one or more attributes must also be specified. Cookies save certain user data from you, such as language or personal page settings. When you call up our site again, your browser sends the “user-related” information back to our site. Thanks to cookies, our website knows who you are and offers you the settings you are used to. In some browsers, each cookie has its own file, in others, such as Firefox, all cookies are stored in a single file. There are both first-party cookies and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are created directly from our side, third-party cookies are created by partner websites (e.g. Google Analytics). Each cookie must be evaluated individually, as each cookie stores different data. The expiry time of a cookie also varies from a few minutes to a few years. Cookies are not software programs and do not contain viruses, Trojans or other “pests”. Cookies cannot access information on your PC either. For example, cookie data can look like this: Name: _ga Value: GA1.2.1326744211.152111681924-9 Purpose: differentiation of website visitors Expiry date: after 2 years A browser should be able to support these minimum sizes: At least 4096 bytes per cookie At least 50 cookies per domain At least 3000 cookies in total What types of cookies are there? The question of which cookies we use in particular depends on the services used and is clarified in the following sections of the data protection declaration. At this point we would like to briefly discuss the different types of HTTP cookies. There are 4 types of cookies: Essential cookies These cookies are necessary to ensure the basic functions of the website. For example, these cookies are needed when a user puts a product in the shopping cart, then continues surfing on other pages and only goes to checkout later. These cookies do not delete the shopping cart, even if the user closes his browser window. Appropriate cookies These cookies collect information about user behavior and whether the user receives any error messages. In addition, these cookies are used to measure the loading time and the behavior of the website in different browsers. Goal-oriented cookies These cookies ensure better user-friendliness. For example, entered locations, font sizes or form data are saved. Advertising cookies These cookies are also called targeting cookies. They serve to deliver customized advertising to the user. That can be very practical, but also very annoying. When you visit a website for the first time, you will usually be asked which of these types of cookies you would like to allow. And of course this decision is also saved in a cookie. How can I delete cookies? You decide for yourself how and whether you want to use cookies. Regardless of which service or website the cookies originate from, you always have the option of deleting, deactivating or only partially accepting cookies. For example, you can block third-party cookies but allow all other cookies. If you want to find out which cookies have been stored in your browser, if you want to change or delete cookie settings, you can find this in your browser settings: Chrome: Delete, activate and manage cookies in Chrome Safari: manage cookies and website data with Safari Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have stored on your computer Internet Explorer: deleting and managing cookies Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies If you generally do not want cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set. In this way, you can decide for each individual cookie whether or not to allow the cookie. The procedure is different depending on the browser. The best thing to do is to search for the instructions in Google with the search term “delete cookies Chrome” or “deactivate cookies Chrome” in the case of a Chrome browser. What about my data protection? The so-called “cookie guidelines” have existed since 2009. It states that the storage of cookies requires your consent. Within the EU countries, however, there are still very different reactions to these guidelines. In Austria, however, this directive was implemented in Section 96 (3) of the Telecommunications Act (TKG). In Germany, the cookie guidelines have not been implemented as national law. Instead, this guideline was largely implemented in Section 15 (3) of the Telemedia Act (TMG). If you want to know more about cookies and are not afraid of technical documentation, we recommend https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265, the Request for Comments of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) called “HTTP State Management Mechanism”. Storage of personal data Personal data that you transmit to us electronically on this website, such as name, e-mail address, address or other personal information in the context of submitting a form or comments in the blog, are stored by us together with the time and the IP address. The address is only used for the specified purpose, stored securely and not passed on to third parties. We therefore only use your personal data for communication with those visitors who expressly request contact and for processing the services and products offered on this website. We do not pass on your personal data without your consent, but we cannot rule out that this data will be viewed in the event of illegal behavior. If you send us personal data by email – outside of this website – we cannot guarantee the secure transmission and protection of your data. We recommend that you never send confidential data unencrypted by email. Rights according to the General Data Protection Regulation According to the provisions of the GDPR, you have the following rights: Right to rectification (Article 16 GDPR) Right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”) (Article 17 GDPR) Right to restriction of processing (Article 18 GDPR) Right to notification – obligation to notify in connection with the correction or deletion of personal data or the restriction of processing (Article 19 GDPR) Right to data portability (Article 20 GDPR) Right of objection (Article 21 GDPR) Right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing – including profiling (Article 22 GDPR) If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or your data protection claims have been violated in any other way, you can complain to the supervisory authority. For Austria this is the data protection authority, whose website you can find at https://www.dsb.gv.at/ and for Germany you can contact the Federal Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (BfDI).
