We welcome you to our website. The protection of your data is very important to us. Therefore, we will show you below how we process your personal data.

Data categories; data sources.

In principle, we process the personal data that you provide to us in the context of an enquiry, a pre-contractual legal relationship or a contractual relationship. In individual cases and insofar as this is necessary within the framework of the fulfilment of the contract, we also process personal data that has been permissibly taken from publicly accessible sources (e.g. commercial register, debtors’ registers, Internet) or permissibly transmitted to us by third parties (e.g. credit agencies).
This may involve personal data (name, birthday, legally authorised representatives), address data (address, e-mail address, contact person), financial data (name of account holder, IBAN, BIC), contract data (contract term, purchased services, cancellations), communication data (correspondence, e-mail traffic), advertising data (advertising letters) as well as other, comparable categories of personal data.
In the course of our activities, special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) DSGVO (General Data Protection Regulation – Datenschutzgrundverordnung) may also be processed. In this case, the processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 9 para. 2 h in conjunction with. para. 3 DSGVO.

General processing of visitor data

In principle, it is possible to use our website without providing personal data.
However, we would like to point out that access data is also collected in this case and stored in the server log files. In particular, this involves the following data:

  • Browser type / your browser version,
  • Operating system,
  • the website from which you are visiting us,
  • Date and time of your visit,
  • Your IP address.

As a rule, we evaluate this information in anonymised form to defend against attacks and to improve our services (processing of personal data within the framework of a balancing of interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 f DSGVO) and subsequently delete it. As a rule, the data cannot be traced back to you personally and is not merged with other data.
If there are concrete indications of illegal use, however, we reserve the right to evaluate the data retrospectively.

Use of cookies

During your visit to our website, cookies may be used on various pages. These are text files that are placed on your computer and, among other things, enable a smooth visit to our website.

In some cases, cookies are necessary to ensure the functionality of our website. The use of such function cookies is based on a legitimate interest in enabling the use of our website including its functions according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

We use other – unnecessary – cookies on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO and thus on the basis of your consent. The purposes of the cookies used in each case include:

  • Enabling the use of special functions,
  • the (pseudonymised) analysis of user behaviour in order to optimise our website,
  • Increasing the attractiveness and user comfort of our website,
  • Improving our offer and designing it to meet the needs of our customers.

The use of cookies that are not necessary takes place within the framework of so-called usage profiles. You will be assigned a pseudonym under which the usage data will be stored. Your IP address is only stored in abbreviated form, so that a personal assignment of the usage profile is no longer possible.

If we use cookies, especially for the purposes of (re-)marketing or the implementation of (social media) plugins, we base this use on your free consent to such data processing and require your consent in this respect. With regard to the individual plugins or tracking tools, we refer to the following detailed explanations.

Most of the cookies we use are deleted from your computer after you close your browser (session cookies). Other types of cookies may remain on your computer and enable us to recognise your computer the next time you visit our site by means of the usage profile created (persistent cookies).

Cookies are only used on our site by us and not by third parties, with the exception of third party cookies which are explicitly mentioned in this privacy policy.

You can give your consent by ticking the cookies you agree to when you visit our website and then confirming your choice.

Contact us

If you contact us by e-mail, we process the personal data you provide to respond to your enquiry. We delete the data after the final processing of your enquiry, unless there is a contractual or legal obligation to retain the data.

Processing of personal data after consent (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 a DSGVO)

We obtain consent from you in individual cases for certain purposes expressly designated in connection with the collection of data (e.g. enquiry by means of a contact form, opening of a customer account, ordering of a newsletter; use of certain cookies).
Data processing only takes place if you give us your consent. It may occur that the processing of your request is not possible without your consent and must therefore be made dependent on it. The data will be processed exclusively for the purpose(s) expressly stated.
You can revoke the consent you have given at any time with effect for the future. The revocation has no influence on the lawfulness of the processing until the time of the revocation.

Consent obtained specifically

Within the framework of our internet presence, you may have given us the following consent:

  • Within the framework of the general contact form:

“Yes, I have read the data protection declaration and agree that the data I have provided may be collected and stored electronically. My data will only be used strictly for the purpose of processing and answering my enquiry. By sending the contact form, I agree to the processing.”

  • In the context of the use of cookies on the website:

“I agree to the collection, storage and use of my data in the context of the use of the website of the responsible party through cookies. I explicitly consent to the processing of the following cookies of the controller or third parties, including any necessary transfer to third countries, as described in the privacy policy: [list of individual cookies/plug-ins]”

Newsletter

If you have registered for our newsletter, we will process the data you have provided on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 a) DSGVO in order to send you our newsletter on a regular basis. To register, it is sufficient to provide an e-mail address. Further information is provided voluntarily. For legal reasons, we also store the IP address and the date of registration.
Our newsletter is sent using the service provider belsignum Werbeagentur, Max-Planck-Strasse 7, 85716 Unterschleißheim, with whom we have con-cluded an data processing agreement. In this context, your data will be stored exclusively in the EU. The data is used exclusively for sending the newsletter. There is no independent use of data by the service provider.
You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. A link to the revocation form can be found at the end of each newsletter email. Of course, you can also revoke your consent via the other contact options offered.

Processing of personal data for contract management (Art. 6 para. 1 b DSGVO)

If a contract is concluded with us, we use personal data insofar as this is necessary to process the contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures. The purposes of the data processing depend on the concrete contents of the contract, which you can find in the contract documents.

Processing of personal data in the context of a balancing of interests (Art. 6 para. 1 f DSGVO)

We process personal data after assessing the interests insofar as this is necessary to protect our interests or the interests of third parties.
Examples of such purposes are:

  • Ensuring the IT security and integrity of our systems,
  • Prevention or detection of criminal offences,
  • Assertion of or defence against legal claims.

Creditor Information System “ANGI”

Via our Anchor creditor information system (“ANGI”), creditors of insolvency proceedings can inform themselves about the status of the insolvency proceedings and about their filed claims. Access requires a user ID which is provided by the insolvency administrator.
The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DS-GVO. The legitimate interest consists of not haveing to operate our own server for the creditor information system.

Use of SalesViewer® technology.

On this website, data is collected and stored for marketing, market research and optimisation purposes using the SalesViewer® technology of SalesViewer® GmbH on the basis of the legitimate interests of the website operator (Art. 6 para.1 lit.f DSGVO).

For this purpose, a javascript-based code is used to collect company-related data and the corresponding usage. The data collected with this technology is encrypted via a non-reversible one-way function (so-called hashing). The data is immediately pseudonymised and not used to personally identify the visitor to this website.

You can object to the collection and storage of data at any time with effect for the future by clicking on this link HERE to prevent the collection by SalesViewer® within this website in the future. This will place an opt-out cookie for this website on your device. If you delete your cookies in this browser, you must click this link again.

Data sharing

We pass on data to other third parties if and to the extent that we have delegated the fulfilment of tasks to them. The data is only passed on insofar as this is necessary for the fulfilment of the assigned tasks.
We work together with the following companies:

  • SalesViewer® GmbH, Bongardstraße 29, 44787 Bochum (SalesViewer®-technology).

The data transfer takes place within the framework of a data processing agreement, which ensures compliance with all data protection requirements.
Data is also transferred between the affiliated companies named above as the responsible parties. This data transfer also takes place within the framework of a contract for order processing, which ensures compliance with all data protection requirements.
For payment processing within the framework of the SEPA direct debit procedure, we pass on your payment data to the credit institution commissioned with the collection.
For the rest, data is only passed on within the framework of the cases provided for by law, for example in the case of a legal obligation to provide information to law enforcement authorities.

Duration of data storage.

Your personal data will be deleted by us without delay as soon as the data is no longer required for the fulfilment of contractual and legal obligations.
Personal data will be stored at least for as long as it is necessary for the fulfilment of contractual obligations and the exercise of contractual rights. This period may extend beyond the actual contractual period, as the data may still be relevant after the end of the contract within the framework of the limitation periods. In addition, deletion can only take place once any retention periods under tax and commercial law have expired.
The criteria for the duration of the storage of cookies can be found in the relevant section.

Affected Persons Rights

As a person affected by the processing of personal data, you have the following rights:
You have the right to request confirmation as to whether personal data are being processed. If this is the case, you have a right to information about the personal data and to the information listed in detail in Art. 15 of the DSGVO.

You have the right to obtain from the controller the rectification without undue delay of inaccurate personal data concerning you and, where applicable, the completion of incomplete personal data (Art. 16 DSGVO).
You have the right to obtain from the controller the erasure without undue delay of personal data concerning you, where one of the grounds set out in detail in paragraph 17 DSGVO applies, e.g. where the data is no longer needed for the purposes pursued (right to erasure).

You have the right to request the controller to restrict processing if one of the conditions listed in Art. 18 DSGVO applies, e.g. if you have objected to the processing, for the duration of the controller’s review.

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you. The controller will then no longer process the personal data unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims (Art. 21 DSGVO).
With regard to exercising your rights, you can contact us at any time via the contact options offered on our website.

Right to object to direct marketing

In individual cases, we process personal data to carry out direct advertising. In this case, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such advertising (Art. 21 DSGVO).
If you object to the processing for the purpose of direct advertising, the personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.
The objection can be made in any form at any time via one of the contact options provided in this privacy policy or in our imprint.

Right of appeal

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the DSGVO (Article 77 DSGVO). You can assert this right with a supervisory authority in the member state of your residence, workplace or the place of the alleged infringement. In Baden-Württemberg, the competent supervisory authority is the State Data Protection Commissioner of Baden-Württemberg.
