3. General information and mandatory information

About data protection

The operators of this website and its pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We therefore treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to personally identify you. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and for what purposes we use this data. It also explains how and for what purpose the data is collected.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may have security gaps. It is not possible to completely protect data from access by third parties.

Information about the responsible body (referred to as “data controller” in the GDPR)

The person responsible for data processing on this website is:

Thöndl Investments AG

Chamerstrasse 172

6300 Zug

Telephone: +41 41 5881766

Email: info@thoendl-investments.com

The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or together with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).

Storage period

Unless a specific storage period is specified in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for which it was collected no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted, unless there are other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the deletion takes place after these reasons cease to apply.

Information about data transfer to the USA and other non-EU countries

Among other things, we use tools from companies based in the United States or other non-EU countries that are uncertain about data protection law. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these non-EU countries. We must point out that a level of data protection comparable with the EU cannot be guaranteed in these countries. For example, US companies are required to share personal data with security authorities, and you, as a data subject, have no opportunity to defend yourself in court. It cannot therefore be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. the Secret Service) may process, evaluate and permanently archive your personal data for monitoring purposes. We have no influence on these processing processes.

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

A variety of data processing processes are only possible with your express consent. You can also withdraw consent that you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of the data collection carried out up to the time of revocation remains unaffected by this.

Right to object to data collection in special cases; right to object to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

In the event that data processing is processed on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The legal basis on which data processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data concerned, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing your data that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (objection in accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing. This also applies to profiling, insofar as it is associated with such direct advertising. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection in accordance with Art. 21 (2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to complain to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State where they usually reside, work or place of the alleged infringement. The right to file a complaint is independent of any other administrative or judicial process available as an appeal.

Right to data portability

You have the right to request that we hand over to you or a third party the data, which we process automatically based on your consent or to fulfill a contract, in a common, machine-readable format. Should you request the direct transfer of data to another person responsible for processing, this will only be done if it is technically feasible.

SSL and/or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the operator of the website, this website uses either an SSL or a TLS encryption program. You can recognize an encrypted connection when the browser's address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and the lock icon appears in the browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, data that you submit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information, correction and deletion of data

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of processing your data at any time. In addition, you may have the right to correct or delete your data. If you have any questions about this or other questions about personal data, you can contact us at any time.

Right to restrict processing

You have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to request the restriction of processing applies in the following cases:

Should you dispute the accuracy of your data archived with us, we usually need a certain amount of time to verify this claim. As long as this review continues, you have the right to ask us to restrict the processing of your personal data.

If the processing of your personal data was/is carried out unlawfully, you have the option to request that the processing of your data be restricted instead of requesting the deletion of this data.

If we no longer need your personal data and you need it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted instead of deletion.

If you have filed an objection in accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR, your rights and our rights must be balanced against each other. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data - with the exception of archiving - may only be processed with your consent or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of other natural or legal persons or for important reasons of public interest cited by the European Union or a member state of the EU.

This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or if it is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively processing the inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR) when this has been obtained.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete the data, withdraw your consent to storage or when the purpose of storage no longer applies (e.g. after we have completed our response to your request). Mandatory legal provisions, in particular retention periods, remain unaffected by this.

Hubspot CRM

We use Hubspot CRM on this website. The provider is Hubspot Inc. 25 Street, Cambridge, MA 02141 USA (hereinafter Hubspot CRM).

Hubspot CRM enables us, among other things, to manage existing and potential customers and customer contacts, communicate with you, and plan and carry out marketing activities tailored to your interests.

5. Analysis tools and advertising

Google Tag Manager

We use Google Tag Manager. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland

Google Tag Manager is a tool that allows us to integrate tracking or statistics tools and other technologies on our website. The Google Tag Manager itself does not create user profiles, does not store cookies and does not carry out any independent analyses. It only manages and operates the tools integrated through it. However, Google Tag Manager collects your IP address, which can also be transmitted to Google's parent company in the United States.

Google Tag Manager is used on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in quickly and easily integrating and managing various tools on his website. If consent has been obtained, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR; consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Google Analytics

This website uses features of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider of this service is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics enables the operator of the website to analyze the behavior patterns of website visitors. For this purpose, the website operator receives a variety of user data, such as pages viewed, time spent on the page, operating system used and origin of the user. Google can combine this data into a profile that is assigned to the respective user or their device.

In addition, Google Analytics allows us, among other things, to record your mouse and scroll movements and clicks. Google Analytics uses various modeling approaches to expand the collected data sets and uses machine learning technologies for data analysis.

Google Analytics uses technologies that enable the user to be recognized for the purpose of analyzing user behavior (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about the use of the website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there.

This analysis tool is used on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The operator of this website has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both the online offering and the operator's advertising activities. If appropriate consent has been obtained (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR; consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Data transfer to the USA is based on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC). Details can be found here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

IP anonymization

We have activated the IP anonymization function on this website. As a result, your IP address is abbreviated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission to the United States of America. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website activity and Internet usage to the operator of this website. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be combined with other data held by Google.

Browser plugin

You can prevent Google from collecting and processing your data by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

For details, please click on the following link: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7667196?hl=en

Google ads

The operator of the website uses Google Ads. Google Ads is an online advertising program from Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Ads allows us to place ads in the Google search engine or on third-party websites when the user enters certain search terms on Google (keyword targeting). It is also possible to place targeted ads based on user data that Google has (e.g. location data and interests; target group targeting). As a website operator, we can quantitatively evaluate this data, for example by analyzing which search terms led to the display of our ads and how many ads led to corresponding clicks.

Google Ads is used on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in marketing the operator's services and products as effectively as possible.

Data transfer to the USA is based on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC). Details can be found here: https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks and https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

Google Remarketing

This website uses the features of Google Analytics Remarketing. The provider of these solutions is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Remarketing analyses your usage behavior on our website (e.g. clicks on certain products) in order to assign you a specific advertising target group and then show you suitable online offers when you visit other online offers (remarketing or retargeting).

In addition, it is possible to link the advertising target groups created with Google Remarketing with cross-device Google functions. This makes it possible to display interest-based advertising messages tailored to you, depending on your previous usage and browsing behavior, both on a device (e.g. mobile phone) and on any of your devices (e.g. tablet or PC).

If you have a Google account, you can opt out of personalized advertising at the following link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.

Google Remarketing is used on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in marketing the operator's products as effectively as possible. If a corresponding declaration of consent has been obtained, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR; the consent given can be withdrawn at any time.

For more information and the relevant privacy policy, please see Google's privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=en.

Google conversion tracking

This website uses Google conversion tracking. The provider of this service is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

With the help of Google conversion tracking, we are able to recognize whether the user has carried out certain actions. For example, we can analyze how often which buttons were clicked on our website and which products are rated or purchased particularly frequently. The purpose of this information is to generate conversion statistics. We learn how many users clicked on our ads and what actions they took. We do not receive any information that would allow us to personally identify users. Google as such uses cookies or comparable recognition technologies for identification.

We use Google Conversion Tracking on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The operator of the website has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior with the aim of optimizing both the website and the operator's advertising. If a corresponding declaration of consent has been obtained (e.g. to store cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR; the consent given can be withdrawn at any time.

For more information about Google Conversion Tracking, please see Google's privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en

Facebook pixels

To measure conversion rates, this website uses Facebook's visitor activity pixel. The provider of this service is Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. According to Facebook's statement, the collected data is also transferred to the USA and other third countries.

This tool allows page visitors to be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider's website after clicking on a Facebook ad. This makes it possible to analyze the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes and to optimize future advertising campaigns.

For us as operators of this website, the data collected is anonymous. We are unable to draw conclusions about the identity of users. However, Facebook archives the information and processes it so that a connection to the respective user profile can be established and Facebook is able to use the data for its own advertising purposes in compliance with the Facebook data usage policy. This allows Facebook to place ads on Facebook pages, but also in locations outside of Facebook. As the operator of this website, we have no influence on the use of this data.

The Facebook pixel is used on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The operator of the website has a legitimate interest in effective advertising campaigns, which include social media. If appropriate consent has been obtained (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR; consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Data transfer to the USA is based on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC). Details can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/legal/EU_data_transfer_addendum and https://de-de.facebook.com/help/566994660333381.

Insofar as personal data is collected on our website using the tool described here and forwarded to Facebook, we and Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland are jointly responsible for this data processing (Art. 26 GDPR). The joint responsibility is limited exclusively to the collection of data and its transfer to Facebook. The processing carried out by Facebook after the transfer is not part of the joint responsibility. Our joint obligations have been set out in a joint processing agreement. The text of the agreement is available at: https://www.facebook.com/legal/controller_addendum. According to this agreement, we are responsible for providing privacy information when using the Facebook tool and for implementing the tool on our website in a privacy-secure manner. Facebook is responsible for the data security of Facebook products. You can assert data subject rights (e.g. requests for information) regarding the data processed by Facebook directly with Facebook. If you assert the rights of data subjects with us, we are obliged to forward them to Facebook.

You can find more information about protecting your privacy in Facebook's privacy policy at: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.

You also have the option to disable the “Custom Audiences” remarketing feature in the ad settings at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen. To do this, you must first log in to Facebook.

If you do not have a Facebook account, you can deactivate any user-related advertising through Facebook on the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance website: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/.

LinkedIn Insight Day

This website uses LinkedIn's Insight Tag. This service is provided by LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.

Data processing through LinkedIn Insight Tag

We use the LinkedIn Insight Tag to obtain information about visitors to our website. Once a website visitor is registered with LinkedIn, we can analyse the key professional data (e.g. career level, company size, country, location, industry, job title) of our website visitors so that we can better target our website to the relevant audience. We can also use LinkedIn Insight tags to measure whether visitors to our websites make a purchase or perform other actions (conversion measurement). Conversions can also be measured across devices (e.g. from PC to tablet). LinkedIn Insight Tag also has a retargeting feature, which allows us to display targeted advertising to visitors to our website outside the website. According to LinkedIn, the advertising addressee is not identified.

LinkedIn itself also collects log files (URL, referrer URL, IP address, device and browser properties and time of access). The IP addresses are truncated or (if used to reach LinkedIn members across devices) hashed (pseudonymized). LinkedIn deletes the direct identifiers of LinkedIn members after seven days. The remaining pseudonymized data is then deleted within 180 days.

As a website operator, the data collected by LinkedIn cannot be attributed to specific persons. LinkedIn stores the personal data collected from visitors to the website on its servers in the USA and uses it for its own advertising purposes. For details, see LinkedIn's privacy policy at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy#choices-oblig.

legal basis

LinkedIn Insight is used on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in effective advertising measures, including on social media. If appropriate consent has been obtained (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR; consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Data transfer to the USA is based on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC). Details can be found here: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/l/dpa and https://www.linkedin.com/legal/l/eu-sccs.

Objection to the use of LinkedIn Insight Tag

You can object to LinkedIn's analysis of user behavior and targeted advertising at the following link: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls/retargeting-opt-out.

In addition, LinkedIn members can control the use of their personal information for advertising purposes in account settings. To prevent LinkedIn from linking the data collected on our website to your LinkedIn account, you must log out of your LinkedIn account before visiting our website.

Conclusion of an order data processing contract

We have concluded an agreement with LinkedIn for order data processing.

6th newsletter

Data for the newsletter

If you would like to subscribe to the newsletter offered on the website, we need an email address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. Further data is not collected or is only collected on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively to send the requested information and do not share this data with third parties.

The data entered in the newsletter subscription form is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent to the storage of the data, the e-mail address and their use to send the newsletter at any time, for example via the “Unsubscribe” link in the newsletter. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out up to that point remains unaffected by this.

The data stored with us for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter or by the newsletter service provider and will be deleted from the newsletter mailing list after you unsubscribe from the newsletter or after the purpose has ceased to exist. We reserve the right to use email addresses from our newsletter mailing list at our own discretion within the scope of our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

After you unsubscribe from the newsletter mailing list, your e-mail address may be stored in a blacklist by us or the newsletter service provider to prevent future submissions. The data from the blacklist is only used for this purpose and is not combined with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is indefinite. You can object to storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

Click tip

This website uses Klick-Tipp to send newsletter messages. The provider is KLICK-TIPP LIMITED, 15 Cambridge Court, 210 Shepherd's Bush Road, London W6 7NJ, United Kingdom.

Klick-Tipp is a service that enables us, among other things, to organize and evaluate the sending of newsletters. The data that you have entered for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter is stored on Klick-Tipp's servers.

Data evaluation by click tip

When we send newsletters using the Click Tip service, we can see whether a newsletter message has actually been opened and which links may have been clicked on.

Klick-Tipp also allows us to divide our newsletter subscribers into different categories (this is called “tagging”). For example, we can divide newsletter subscribers according to gender, personal preferences (e.g. vegetarian, carnivore, etc.) or customer relationship (e.g. existing customer or interested party). This allows us to tailor our newsletters even better to the respective target groups. For more information, please follow these links: https://www.klick-tipp.com and https://www.klick-tipp.com/handbuch.

If you do not want to allow click-tip analysis, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this purpose, we provide you with a link in every newsletter message.

Legal basis

The processing of data is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out up to your withdrawal remains unaffected by this.

Storage period

The data stored with us for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter or the newsletter service provider and will be deleted from the newsletter mailing list after you unsubscribe from the newsletter. Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected by this.

After you unsubscribe from the newsletter mailing list, your e-mail address may be stored in a blacklist by us or the newsletter service provider to prevent future submissions. The data from the blacklist is only used for this purpose and is not combined with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is indefinite. You can object to storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

For more details, please see Klick-Tipp's privacy policy at: https://www.klick-tipp.com/datenschutzerklaerung.

Implementation of an order data processing contract

We have concluded a contract with Klick-Tipp for order data processing, in which we oblige Klick-Tipp to protect our customers' data and not to pass it on to third parties.

We use YouTube in extended data protection mode. According to YouTube, this mode ensures that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. However, this does not necessarily mean that the transfer of data to YouTube partners can be ruled out due to the extended data protection mode. Regardless of whether you're watching a video, YouTube, for example, always connects to the Google DoubleClick network.

As soon as you play a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account while visiting our website, you enable YouTube to associate your surfing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

In addition, after you have started playing a video, YouTube can store various cookies or comparable recognition technologies (e.g. device fingerprinting) on your device. In this way, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to create video statistics to improve the usability of the website and prevent fraud attempts.

After playing a YouTube video, further data processing processes may be triggered that are beyond our control.

The use of YouTube is based on our interest in presenting our online content in an appealing way. According to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, this is a legitimate interest. If consent has been obtained, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR; consent can be withdrawn at any time.

For more information on YouTube's handling of user data, please see YouTube's privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

Vimeo without tracking (do-not-track)

This website uses plugins from the video portal Vimeo. The provider is Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York 10011, USA.

When you visit one of our pages with Vimeo videos, a connection to the Vimeo servers is established. In this context, the Vimeo server receives information about which of our pages you have visited. Vimeo also receives your IP address. However, we have set up Vimeo so that Vimeo cannot track your user activity and does not set cookies.

We use Vimeo to make our online presentation attractive for you. This is a legitimate interest on our part in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If a corresponding declaration of consent has been obtained (e.g. to store cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR; the consent given can be withdrawn at any time.

Data is transferred to the USA on the basis of the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) and, according to Vimeo, on the basis of “legitimate business interests.” Details can be found here: https://vimeo.com/privacy.

Google fonts

To ensure that the fonts used on this website are consistent, this website uses so-called web fonts, which are provided by Google. When you visit a page on our website, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to correctly display texts and fonts.

To do this, the browser you are using must connect to Google's servers. This tells Google that this website has been accessed via your IP address. Google Web Fonts are used on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in a uniform presentation of the font on the operator's website. If there is a corresponding declaration of consent (e.g. consent to the archiving of cookies), the data will be processed exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. Such consent can be withdrawn at any time.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font installed on your computer will be used.

You can find more information about Google Web Fonts at this link: https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google's privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

Google Maps

This website uses the Google Maps map service. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

To enable the use of Google Maps features, your IP address must be saved. This information is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and archived there. The operator of this website has no influence on the transfer of data. If Google Maps is activated, Google has the option of using Google Web Fonts to uniformly display fonts. When you call up Google Maps, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to correctly display texts and fonts.

We use Google Maps to present our online content in an appealing way and to make the locations listed on our website easy to find. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If there is a corresponding declaration of consent, the data will be processed exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. This declaration of consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Data transfer to the USA is based on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC). Details can be found here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/gdprcontrollerterms/ and https://privacy.google.com/businesses/gdprcontrollerterms/sccs/.

For more information about how we handle user data, please see Google's privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

Google reCAPTCHA

We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter referred to as “reCAPTCHA”) on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

The purpose of reCAPTCHA is to determine whether the data entered on this website (e.g. information entered into a contact form) comes from a human user or from an automated program. To determine this, reCAPTCHA analyses the behavior of website visitors using a variety of parameters. This analysis is automatically triggered as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For this analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates a variety of data (e.g. IP address, time the website visitor spent on the website or cursor movements initiated by the user). The data collected during such analyses is forwarded to Google.

The reCAPTCHA analyses run completely in the background. Visitors to the website are not notified that an analysis is being carried out.

Data is stored and analyzed on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting the operator's websites from abusive automated spying and from SPAM. If there is a corresponding declaration of consent, the processing of the data is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. Such consent can be withdrawn at any time.

For more information about Google reCAPTCHA, please see Google's privacy policy and terms of use at the following links: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en and https://policies.google.com/terms?hl=en.

Processing of data (customer and contract data)

We collect, process and use personal data only to the extent necessary to establish, structure or change the legal relationship (inventory data). These measures are carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, which allows the processing of data to fulfill a contract or pre-contractual measures. We collect, process and use personal data about the use of this website (usage data) only to the extent necessary to enable users to make use of the services and to bill them.

The collected customer data will be deleted when the order is processed or the business relationship is terminated. Statutory storage obligations remain unaffected by this.

9. Custom services

Job applications

We offer visitors to our website the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by e-mail, by post or via the online application form). In the following, we will inform you about the scope, purpose and use of the personal data collected as part of the application process. We assure you that your data will be collected, processed and used in compliance with applicable data protection and other legal regulations and that your data will always be kept strictly confidential.

Scope and purpose of data collection

When you apply to us, we process the associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes from job interviews, etc.) insofar as they are necessary to decide whether to establish or carry out an employment relationship. The legal bases for this are § 26 New GDPR under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR (general contract negotiations) and - if you have given us your consent - Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time. Within our company, your personal data will only be shared with people who are involved in processing your application.

Should your application result in your employment, the data you provide will be stored in our data processing system on the basis of § 26 New GDPR and Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship.

Deadline for data archiving

If we are unable to make you a job offer or if you decline a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to store the data you have submitted for up to 6 months after the application process has been completed (rejection or withdrawal of the application) on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). The data is then deleted and the physical application documents are destroyed. The storage serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is foreseeable that the data will be required after the 6-month period has elapsed (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), the data will only be deleted when the purpose for further storage no longer applies.

Longer storage can also take place if you have given your consent (Article 6 paragraph 1 letter a) GDPR) or if legal storage obligations prevent deletion.

Cookie policy

A cookie is a small file that is sent to your browser and stored on your device when you visit a website. Cookies enable the website to operate efficiently and improve its performance, and also provide information to the website owner for statistical purposes or advertising, primarily to personalize your browsing experience by remembering your preferences (e.g. to remember the language and currency you have set, to recognize you on your next visit, etc.).

Which cookies do we use and for what purpose?

Our website uses various types of cookies and similar technologies, each of which has a specific function. The table below shows this.

  • CMS
  • session-based
  • twitter
  • social media
  • google
  • Google map, analytics

Types of cookies

Based on the characteristics and use of cookies, we can distinguish several categories:

Cookies and technicians strictly necessary

Cookies are essential for proper functioning and are used to manage login and access to reserved features of the website. The duration of cookies is strictly limited to the working session and then the browser will be deleted. Cookie technical analysis, performance and functionality. Cookies are used to collect and analyze traffic and use the website anonymously. These cookies do not allow the user to be identified and are not used for other purposes. They can in turn be divided into cookies or browsing session, which ensure normal navigation and use of the website; cookies analytics, similar to how cookies technicians are used to collect information, in aggregate form, the number of users and how they visit the website; cookie functionality, which allows the user to browse a series of selected criteria (e.g. the language products selected for purchase) to improve the service to do the same.

Cookie profiling

(This website does not use this type of cookie). These are persistent cookies that are used to identify user preferences (anonymous or not) and improve navigation. Profiling cookies are used to create user profiles and are used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences shown by the same part of browsing the web. Considering that such devices can invade users' privacy, European and Italian legislation requires that the user be duly informed of the use of them and give their express consent.

Third party cookies

When you visit a website, you may receive cookies from the website you visited (“owner”), both from websites maintained by other organizations (“third parties”). A notable example is the presence of a “social plugin” for Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and LinkedIn. It is part of the visited page that is generated directly from these websites and integrated with the page host. The most common use of social plugins is aimed at sharing content on social networks. The presence of these plugins involves the transfer of cookies to and from all websites operated by third parties. The management of information collected by “third parties” is governed by the relevant information, which can be found here.
