Data collection on this website 

Who is responsible for data collection on this website? 

Data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator. Their contact details can be found in the “Information on the responsible body” section of this privacy policy. 

How do we collect your data?  

Your data is collected when you provide it to us. This may include, for example, data that you enter in a contact form. 

Other data is collected automatically or with your consent when you visit the website by our IT systems. This is primarily technical data (e.g., Internet browser, operating system, or time of page view). This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter this website and is limited to data that is technically necessary for the error-free display and functionality of the site. Beyond that, we only collect data if you have given us your express consent, which can be revoked at any time. You can find more detailed information on this in the relevant section of our privacy policy. 

What do we use your data for?  

Some of the data is collected to ensure that the website is provided without errors. Other data may be use to analyze your user behavior. If contracts can be concluded or initiated via the website, the transmitted data will also be processed for contract offers, orders, or other order inquiries. 

What rights do you have regarding your data? 

You have the following rights with regard to your personal data: 

  • Right to information,
  • Right to correction or deletion,
  • Right to restriction of processing,
  • Right to object to processing,
  • Right to data portability.

You also have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority about our processing of your personal data. The competent supervisory authority for our company is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information in Lower Saxony.  

Note on withdrawing consent

A data subject has the right to revoke their declaration of consent to us at any time. However, this does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation. 

Note on the right to object 

If processing is based on our legitimate interests as the controller (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR), you have the right to object to this processing at any time. We will no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate reasons for the processing that override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims. 

Note on complaints to a supervisory authority 

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, a data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority – in particular in the Member State of the user's place of residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement – if the user believes that our processing of their personal data violates the GDPR. You can contact us at any time with questions about this or other data protection issues. 

 

 

2. Hosting

We host the content of our website with an external provider. This is done on the basis of a data processing agreement concluded with the provider.

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 (2) lit. a GDPR, provided that special categories of data are processed in accordance with Art. 9 (1) GDPR. In the event of express consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Art. 49 (1) lit. a GDPR.

Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The relevant legal bases and any legitimate interests in each individual case are explained in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy. 

Recipients of personal data 

As part of our business activities, we work with various external parties. In some cases, this requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only disclose personal data to external parties if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., disclosure of data to tax authorities), if we or the receiving third party have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the disclosure of data. When using contract processors, we only disclose our customers' personal data on the basis of a valid contract for contract processing. In the case of joint processing, a contract for joint processing is concluded. 

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing 

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

4. Data collection on this website

Cookies 

Our websites use so-called “cookies.” Cookies are small data packets and do not cause any damage to your device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your device. Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or they are automatically deleted by your web browser. 

Cookies can originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services from third-party companies within websites (e.g., cookies for processing payment services).  

Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies can be used to evaluate user behavior or for advertising purposes. 

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide certain functions that you have requested (e.g. for the shopping cart function) or to optimize the website (e.g. cookies for security functions) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TDDDG); the consent can be revoked at any time. 

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be restricted. 

You can find out which cookies and services are used on this website in this privacy policy. 

Server log files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are: 

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • referrer URL
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources. This data is collected on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website - the server log files must be recorded for this purpose. 

Contact form

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact data you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent. This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR if your request is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this has been requested; consent can be revoked at any time. We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected. 

Request by e-mail, telephone or fax  

If you contact us by email, telephone or fax, we will store and process your request, including all resulting personal data (name, request) for the purpose of processing your request. This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, provided that your request is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this has been requested; any consent given to us can be revoked at any time. The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular statutory retention periods - remain unaffected. 

 

 

5. Analysis tools and advertising

Matomo 

This website uses the open source web analysis service Matomo. 

With the help of Matomo, we are able to collect and analyze data about the use of our website by website visitors. This enables us to find out, among other things, when which pages were accessed and from which region. We also record various log files (e.g. anonymized IP address, referrer, browser and operating system used) and can measure whether our website visitors perform certain actions (e.g. clicks on certain pages, purchases, etc.). 

IP anonymization 

We use IP anonymization for the analysis with Matomo. Your IP address is shortened before the analysis so that it can no longer be clearly assigned to you. 

Cookieless analysis 

We have configured Matomo so that Matomo does not store any cookies in your browser. 

Hosting 

We host Matomo exclusively on our own servers so that all analysis data remains with us and is not passed on. 

 

You have the option to prevent actions you take here from being analyzed and linked by objecting to the use of Matomo. This will protect your privacy but will also prevent the operator of this website from learning from your actions and improving usability for you and other users. 

The legal basis for the cookieless use of Matomo is Article 6(1)(f), our legitimate interest. Our legitimate interest here is the permanent optimization of our website in accordance with the requirements and interests of our website visitors. 

Your visit to this website is currently recorded by Matomo web analytics. Deselect this checkbox for opt-out. 

 

 

6. Plugins and tools

YouTube with enhanced data protection 

This website integrates videos from the YouTube website. The operator of the website is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. 

When you visit a website on which YouTube is integrated, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

We use YouTube in extended data protection mode. According to YouTube, videos that are played in extended data protection mode are not used to personalize surfing on YouTube. Ads that are played in extended data protection mode are also not personalized. No cookies are set in extended data protection mode. Instead, so-called local storage elements are stored in the user's browser, which contain personal data similar to cookies and can be used for recognition. Details on the extended data protection mode can be found here: support.google.com/youtube/answer/171780. 

YouTube is used on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, your express consent, which can be revoked at any time, and § 25 para. 1 TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. 

Further information on data protection at YoutTube can be found in the corresponding data protection declaration at: policies.google.com/privacy;

YouTube and its parent company Google are certified in accordance with the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF). The DPF is an agreement between the European Union and the USA that is intended to ensure compliance with European data protection standards for data processing in the USA. Every company certified under the DPF undertakes to comply with these data protection standards. Further information on this can be obtained from the provider at the following link: www.dataprivacyframework.gov/participant/5780. 

OpenStreetMap

We use the OpenStreetMap (OSM) map service. 

We integrate the map material from OpenStreetMap on the server of the OpenStreetMap Foundation, St John's Innovation Center, Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WS, United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is considered a safe third country under data protection law. This means that Great Britain has a level of data protection that corresponds to the level of data protection in the European Union. When using the OpenStreetMap maps, a connection is established to the servers of the OpenStreetMap Foundation. Among other things, your IP address and other information about your behavior on this website may be forwarded to the OSMF. For this purpose, OpenStreetMap may store cookies in your browser or use comparable recognition technologies. 

The integration of OpenStreetMap is desired for the needs-based design of our website. This is also in our interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) (legitimate interest of us as the controller), the specific loading of the map is based on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) and Section 25(1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time. 

 

 

7. Cookie Consent Panel

When you visit our website, we inform you about the types of cookies we use and give you the opportunity to consent to the setting of technically non-essential cookies in order to better customize our website to your preferences. For this purpose, we use Osano's cookie consent technology (Cookie Consent) to obtain your consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR to the storage of certain cookies in your browser and to document this in accordance with data protection regulations. When you visit our website, a cookie from Cookie Consent is stored in your browser, in which the consent you have given or the revocation of this consent is documented. 

Legal basis for data processing 

The setting of cookies that are not technically necessary is prohibited. The legal basis for the use of a cookie consent manager is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR and Art. 25 para. 2 no. 2 TDDDG. 

Purpose of data processing 

Cookie consent technology is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of cookies. 

Storage duration 

The key and consent status are stored in the browser for 12 months using the “CookieConsent” cookie. This means that your cookie preference is retained for subsequent page requests. With the help of the key, your consent can be verified and tracked.

 

 

8. Own services

For customers/suppliers/service providers 

We collect and process data from our customers, service providers and suppliers that is necessary for the fulfillment of the contract, i.e. in particular contact information such as names of contact persons, business telephone numbers and e-mail addresses, but also bank and contract data. 

The following categories of data are processed: 

  • Communication data (e.g. name, telephone, e-mail, address)
  • Contract master data (contractual relationship, product or contractual interest)
  • customer history
  • Contract billing and payment data

information data (from third parties, e.g. credit agencies or from public directories)

We store this data for the duration of the contractual relationship or, after its end, for any legally prescribed retention periods. 

In addition to the fulfillment of the contract, the processing may be based on the legitimate interests of our company or your consent. 

In rare cases, we receive contact data from third parties with the request to prepare offers or answer questions. If this happens, we will be happy to inform you of the relevant data source. 

Data from general inquiries that do not lead to a business relationship will be deleted after a period of 2 years.

For applicants 

We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by e-mail, post or via the online application form). In the following, we inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected as part of the application process. We assure you that your data will be collected, processed and used in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other statutory provisions and that your data will be treated in strict confidence. 

Scope and purpose of data collection 

We will process the data which you send to us in connection with your application, in order to assess your suitability for the position (or any other open position within our company) and to complete the application process. 

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data within the application process is primarily Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR. This permits the processing of data required in connection with the decision to establish an employment relationship. 

If special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 GDPR are processed (e.g. health data), the legal basis is § 26 para. 3 BDSG or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. b) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR. 

f the data is required for legal prosecution following the completion of the application process, data processing is permitted based on the requirements of Art. 6 of the GDPR, and in particular for the exercise of legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 Sec. 1 lit. f) of the GDPR. Our interest then lies in the assertion of, or defence against, claims.

In the event of cancellation, data from applicants will be deleted after 6 months.

If you are awarded a position as part of the application process, the data will be transferred from our applicant data system to our personnel information system.

Data retention period 

If we are unable to make you a job offer, you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have submitted on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). The data will then be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. The retention serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is apparent that the data will be required after the 6-month period has expired (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 may also take place if you have given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or if statutory retention obligations prevent deletion.
