2. Processing of personal data on our website
2.1 Accessing our website
We process so-called server log files when you access our website (legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)), which is common and necessary for the use of websites. We process this data to enable the use of our website. This data is automatically transmitted to us by the user's browser.
This data is also processed by our technical service providers, who support us in providing the website.
Without the processing of this data, our website cannot be used.
This data is deleted immediately after the connection to our website is closed. Insofar as further use of data occurs at the same time, this is described below.
2.2 Enquiries
If you have any questions or requests, we will be happy to help. We process your information to answer your questions. The provision of the data marked as mandatory is required in order to process and respond to your request. If you do not provide us with this information, your request cannot be processed. The provision of further data is voluntary. It enables us to address you personally and makes it easier for us to process your request. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data from your enquiry is your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR) or our legitimate interest (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). If your enquiry relates to the conclusion or execution of a contract, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. You can object to the processing of voluntarily provided data at any time. We will store the information from your enquiry for three months after answering the enquiry, as long as it is not stored in accordance with the statutory limitation periods for the purpose of preserving evidence.
2.3 Service Portal
You can register on our website to use additional features on the site. We process your personal data for the setup and use of your user account in our online service portal (legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR). The provision of the data is necessary to set up your personal user account. If you do not provide us with this data, your personal user account cannot be set up.
We store your personal data for your user account until you cancel your user account, provided that there are no legal storage obligations due to your orders (section 2.4).
2.4 Orders
When you place an order, we process your personal data in order to fulfil the order. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. We store your data relevant for the order and purchase and the associated documents (e.g. commercial letters, invoices) for six years or ten years, respectively, after completion of the order or purchase in accordance with the statutory provisions. The provision of your data is necessary for the conclusion of the respective contract. If you do not provide the data, the order cannot be completed and other contract-related requests cannot be processed.
2.5 Your job application
If you send us your job application, we process your personal data for the purpose of taking steps prior to entering into a contract for the selection of a suitable candidate (Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR). The legal basis for the processing of special personal data is usually your consent (Art. 9 (2) (a) DS-GVO), but under certain circumstances also the fulfilment of legal obligations (Art. 6 (1) (c) DS-GVO, § 26 (3), (8) BDSG). We store your personal data for six months after completion of the application process if no employment relationship is established. If the application process ends with you being employed by us, your information will be stored in your personnel file and stored in it for up to 10 years after termination of the employment relationship. The provision of your personal data is necessary for the application process. If you do not provide the data, your application cannot be considered.
If you have consented to being included in our talent pool, we process your personal data on the basis of consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time for the future. We process your personal data for this purpose until you revoke your consent. The provision of your personal data for this purpose is not required by law or contract, nor is it necessary for the conclusion of a contract. If the application process ends with you taking up employment with us, your details will be stored in the personnel file and stored in it for up to 10 years after the end of the employment relationship.
3. Credit assessment and debt collection
For the purpose of deciding on the establishment, execution or termination of a contractual relationship, we may, in the event of a payment default risk, obtain information from Creditreform Pinneberg Wall KG, Waldstraße 5, 25421 Pinneberg, from Creditsafe Deutschland GmbH, Schreiberhauer Straße 30, 10317 Berlin or from Bisnode D6B Deutschland GmbH, Robert Bosch Straße 11, 64293 Darmstadt, using your data and also probability values determined from the address data regarding your ability and willingness to pay.
We may transfer personal data concerning due unpaid and undisputed claims to credit reference agencies four weeks after you have received the second written reminder, in which we inform you that the claim data may be considered by credit reference agencies. The credit reference agencies may also make this data available to other companies for credit checks if they have a legitimate interest. Under the same conditions, in the event of unpaid claims, we may transfer your corresponding data to the companies mentioned in this section for collection on our behalf (debt collection).
The legal basis for this data processing is our legitimate economic interest in preparing business and protecting ourselves against the risk of default (Art. 6 (1) (f) DS-GVO).
4. General information about cookies
Our website uses web analysis technologies to collect and use data for marketing and optimisation purposes. These are described and explained separately and in more detail below. In the interest of comprehensibility, we would like to explain the topic of cookies to you here.
Cookies may be used on our website (i.e. small text files that are stored on your computer to enable your internet browser to be recognised again). If you would like to find out more about this, please click here https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cookie or www.techfacts.de/ratgeber/was-sind-cookies.

5. cookies and web analysis technologies we use
Consent Manager
We have integrated a cookie consent manager into our website to manage your consent. This enables you to give your consent to certain data processing and to revoke consent that you have given. The Consent Manager also helps us to provide proof of your declarations. To do this, protocol data about your declarations is processed. This data processing is necessary to be able to provide evidence of consent given and is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR. You can give your consent for all cookies by clicking the ‘Accept’ button when you first access our website. By clicking on the ‘Settings’ button, you can obtain further information about the cookies used and withdraw your consent.
Usage-based online advertising
We collect information about the activities of visitors to our website in order to optimise our website offering on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR).
The advertising on this website is partly optimised for you by the pseudonymised collection and processing of your usage behaviour for predicted interests. For this purpose, cookies are stored on the user's computer. These cookies enable the recognition of the user, but do not allow personal identification of the user.
We use the following tools for data collection for the delivery of usage-based online advertising. We are supported in this by the providers mentioned there as contract processors. You can revoke your consent to the respective processing at any time for the future.
Google Analytics
For the purpose of designing and continuously optimising our website to meet demand, we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, with the involvement of the US parent company Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Google Analytics is only activated if you give your consent for the ‘Analyses’ category in our Cookie Consent Manager. The data processing within the scope of Google Analytics is carried out on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
The service uses cookies that enable an analysis of your usage behaviour. During your visit to our website, the following information may be collected: start of session, first visit to the website, page views, interaction with the website (‘click and scroll path’), internal search queries, clicks on external links, video views, file downloads, ads viewed and clicked on, language setting. In addition, Google Analytics collects technical communication data including your IP address.
The information generated about your use of the website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored and processed there. However, by activating IP anonymisation on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before this happens. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the United States and abbreviated there. Google processes the information on our behalf in order to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports on your website activities and to provide us with further services associated with the use of the website and the internet. Pseudonymous user profiles may be created from the processed data.
This data processing and, in particular, the associated data transfers to Google in the USA are also carried out on the legal basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
You can revoke your consent at any time for the future by deactivating the category ‘Analyses’ in our Consent Manager. You can also prevent data processing by Google Analytics using one of the following options:
- You can prevent the storage of Google cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use all the features of this website to the fullest extent possible.
- You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookies and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
According to Google, the IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.
Further information and the applicable Google data protection provisions can be found at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html. Google Analytics is explained in more detail at this link https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/analytics/.
6. Plugins and tools
Google Web Fonts
As part of our internet presence, we use Google Web Fonts from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, to enable a uniform display of fonts (so-called web fonts) on our website and to reduce the speed of loading our website. We have integrated the Google fonts locally on our web server. This means that there is no connection to Google servers and therefore no transfer of personal data to Google.
7. Disclosure of data
The personal data collected by us in the context of visits to and purely informational use of our website and the personal data collected by us in the context of the use of certain functions and offers on our website are generally not passed on to third parties or transmitted in any other way, unless this is expressly stated in the data protection declaration. Exceptions to this are the transmission of personal data to state institutions and authorities as well as private rights holders on the basis of legal regulations or judicial or official decisions, as well as the necessary disclosure to state institutions and authorities in the event of attacks on our legal interests for the purposes of legal or criminal prosecution.
In operating our website and providing and processing individual functions and offers, we sometimes use external technical and other service providers to support us in providing our services. These service providers are carefully selected by us. Where necessary, these service providers process your personal data within the scope of their respective contracts in accordance with our instructions for the purposes stated in this data protection notice. They are contractually obliged to strictly comply with this data protection declaration, the applicable statutory data protection provisions and our instructions (so-called contract processors in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR). The same applies to any subcontractors, insofar as our contract processors make use of them with our prior consent.
8. processing of personal data in ‘third countries’
We process personal data collected on the website only within the member states of the European Union and the European Economic Area. Personal data will only be transmitted to ‘third countries’, i.e. to countries outside the European Union and the European Economic Area, if we expressly inform you of this.
The processing by using Google Analytics as described in Section 6 includes a data transfer to Google's servers in the United States. In the opinion of the ECJ, the United States does not have a level of data protection that is fully equivalent to that in the EU. In particular, there is a risk, or rather, it cannot be ruled out, that state authorities may also gain access to the data within the framework of the laws applicable there, with only limited possibilities for legal protection. However, the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework is currently in place for the U.S. and serves as a basis for data transfers to certified organisations in the U.S. Google is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.
9. Duration of storage
In general, we only store personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose of the respective data processing, or until you request that we delete the personal data for other legitimate reasons (see Art. 17 (1) DS-GVO). After expiry of these storage periods or upon your justified request for deletion, we check in each case whether certain personal data is still required for (other) legitimate purposes and, if not, whether contractual or statutory retention periods preclude the deletion of the personal data. In these cases, the personal data concerned will be stored for as long as is necessary to fulfil this (other) legitimate purpose, or for the duration of the respective contractual or statutory retention period for these purposes. However, they will be blocked for other purposes and then permanently deleted after the last contractual or statutory retention period has expired.
10. Your rights as a data subject
You have the following rights with regard to your personal data that has been processed:
- Right to information from the controller in accordance with Art. 15 GDPR
- Right to rectification or erasure or restriction of processing
- Insofar as the processing of your personal data is based on a balancing of interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR), the right to object to the processing
- Right to data portability
- insofar as the processing of your personal data is based on consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) or Art. 9 (2) (a) DS-GVO), the right to revoke consent at any time
- Right of appeal to a supervisory authority
11. Changes to this data protection notice
We reserve the right to amend this data protection notice if technical or content-related circumstances or legal requirements change or if we consider additional explanations to be appropriate.
