General

As the operator of this website and as a company, we come into contact with your personal data. This concerns all data that reveals something about you and by which you can be identified. In this privacy policy, we would like to explain how, for what purpose and on which legal basis we process your data.

Responsible for the data processing (“data controller”) on this website and in our company is:

General information

SSL or TLS encryption

When you enter your data on websites, place online orders or send e-mails via the Internet, you must always be prepared for unauthorized third parties to access your data. There is no complete protection against such access. However, we do our utmost to protect your data as best we can and to close security gaps as far as we can.

An important protection mechanism is the SSL or TLS encryption of our website, which ensures that data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize the encryption by the lock icon in front of the Internet address entered in your browser and by the fact that our Internet address begins with https:// and not with http://.

Encrypted payment transactions

Payment data, such as account or credit card numbers, require special protection. For this reason, payment transactions made with the most common means of payment are carried out exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection.

How long do we store your data?

In some parts in this privacy policy, we inform you about how long we or the companies that process your data on our behalf will store your data. In the absence of such information, we store your data until the purpose of the data processing no longer applies, you object to the data processing or you revoke your consent to the data processing.

In the event of an objection or revocation, we may however continue to process your data if at least one of the following conditions applies:

In this case, we will delete your data as soon as the requirement(s) cease to apply.

Data transfer to the USA

On our website, we use tools from companies that transfer your data to the USA and store it there and, if necessary, process it further. The European Commission has adopted an adequacy decision for the EU-US data protection framework. The decision establishes that the US ensures an adequate level of protection for EU personal data transferred to US companies. This decision is based on new safeguards and measures put in place by the US to meet data protection requirements. The adequacy decision includes, among other things, restrictions and safeguards on access to data by US intelligence agencies. Binding safeguards were introduced to limit US intelligence agencies' access to what is necessary and proportionate to protect national security. In addition, enhanced oversight of US intelligence activities was established to ensure that restrictions on surveillance activities are respected. An independent redress mechanism has also been established to handle and resolve complaints from European citizens about access to their data. The EU-US data protection framework thus allows European companies to transfer data to certified US companies without having to introduce additional data protection safeguards. A list of all certified companies can be found at the following link: https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/participant-search.

A change in the European Commission's decision cannot be ruled out.

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are based on your consent. You can give this consent, for example, by ticking the appropriate box on online forms before you send the form, or by allowing the operation of certain cookies when you visit our website. You may revoke your consent at any time without giving reasons (Art. 7 (3) GDPR). From the time of revocation, we may then no longer process your data. The only exception: we are required by law to retain the data for a certain period of time. Such retention periods exist in particular in tax and commercial law.

Right to complain to the competent supervisory authority

If you believe that we are in breach of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority in accordance with Art. 77 GDPR. You may contact a supervisory authority in the Member State of your residence, place of work or the place where the alleged infringement took place. The right to complain exists alongside administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

We must hand over data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract to you or a third party in a common machine-readable format if you request this. We can only transfer the data to another “data controller” if this is technically possible.

External hosting

Our website is hosted on a server of the following Internet service provider (hoster):

ALL-INKL.COM - Neue Medien Münnich
Owner René Münnich
Hauptstraße 68
02742 Friedersdorf, Germany


How do we process your data?

The hoster stores all the data from our website. This includes all personal data that is collected automatically or through entering. This can be in particular: Your IP address, pages accessed, names, contact details and requests, as well as meta and communication data. When processing data, our hoster adheres to our instructions and always processes the data only insofar as this is necessary to fulfill the service obligation to us.

In addition, it is our legitimate interest as a company to provide a professional Internet offering that meets the necessary requirements for security, speed and efficiency. In this respect, we also process your data on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

Data collection on this website

Use of cookies

Our website places cookies on your device. These are small text files that are used for various purposes. Some cookies are technically necessary for the website to function at all (necessary cookies). Others are needed to perform certain actions or functions on the site (functional cookies). For example, without cookies it would not be possible to take advantage of a shopping cart in an online store. Still other cookies are used to analyze user behavior or to optimize advertising measures. If we use third-party services on our website, for example to process payment transactions, these companies may also leave cookies on your device when you access the website (so-called third-party cookies).

How do we process your data?

Session cookies are only stored on your device for the duration of a session. As soon as you close the browser, they therefore disappear by themselves. Permanent cookies, on the other hand, remain on your device unless you delete them yourself. This can, for example, lead to your user behavior being permanently analyzed. You can use the settings in your browser to influence how it handles cookies:

If you disable or do not allow cookies, the functionality of the website may be limited.

If we use cookies from other companies or for analysis purposes, we will inform you about this as part of this privacy policy. We also request your consent in this regard when you access our website.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

We have a legitimate interest in ensuring that our online offers can be used by visitors without technical problems and that all desired functions are available to them. The storage of necessary and functional cookies on your device therefore takes place on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. We use all other cookies on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR, provided you give us your consent. You can revoke this at any time with effect for the future. If you have consented to the placement of necessary and functional cookies when requesting consent, these cookies will also be stored exclusively on the basis of your consent.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

We are legally obliged to obtain the consent of our website visitors for the use of certain cookies. In order to fulfill this obligation, we use Borlabs Cookie. The legal basis for data processing is therefore Art. 6 (1) lit. c) GDPR.

Server log files

Server log files log all requests and accesses to our website and record error messages. They also include personal data, in particular your IP address. However, this is anonymized by the provider after a short time, so that we cannot assign the data to your person. The data is automatically transmitted to our provider by your browser.

How do we process your data?

Our provider stores the server log files in order to be able to track the activities on our website and to locate errors. The files contain the following data:

Social-Media-Plugins

Use of social media plugins

Regular use

We use social media plugins on our website. You can recognize these by the logos of the social networks. Thanks to the plugins, you can easily share the content on our website on social networks. The list at the end of this section shows which plugins we use in detail. Here you will also find the networks' information relevant to data protection.

How do we process your data?

Due to the embedded plugins, a connection to the servers of the social networks is established when you visit our website. This happens even if you do not share any content. In this way, the offering companies learn that the website was visited via your IP address. If you are logged into your account on a social network when you visit our website, the transmitted data can also be assigned to your personal profile. If you do not want this, you must log out of your account before you continue surfing the Internet.

Except for Xing, all networks store the IP address. Further personal data may be added. In this case, your data is usually transferred to servers in the USA. If this is the case, you can find out the basis on which this happens in each case from the information on the networks given below.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

It is important for the success of our company to be present on social networks. It is therefore our legitimate interest to use the social media plugins to ensure that the content of our website or our offers can be easily shared. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

If you have consented to data processing, we process your data exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR. You may revoke your consent at any time. From the time of revocation, we may no longer process your data.

Tag management system for the integration of tracking codes and conversion pixels of Google Ireland. Ltd.

Who processes your data?

https://policies.google.com/privacy

On what legal basis do we transfer your data to the USA?

On the basis of the European Commission's adequacy decision and the company's corresponding certification.

How do we process your data?

We use the Google Tag Manager. The tool helps us to integrate tracking codes and conversion pixels into our website, manage them and play them out. Google Tag Manager does not create user profiles itself, does not place cookies on your device, and does not analyze your behavior as a user. It does, however, record your IP address and transmit it to Google servers in the USA.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

We have a legitimate interest in a quick and uncomplicated integration and management of various tools on our website. The use of Google Tag Manager is therefore lawful according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

How can you prevent data collection?

Among other things, with a browser plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en

How do we process your data?

We are always interested in optimizing our web offer for visitors to our website and placing advertisements in the best possible way. We are helped in this by Google Analytics, a tool that analyzes the behavior of users and thus provides us with the necessary database for adjustments. Through the tool, we receive information about the origin of our visitors, their page views and the time they spend on the pages, as well as the operating system they use.

Standard processing

To collect the data, Google Analytics uses cookies, device fingerprinting or other user recognition technologies. The data is transmitted to Google servers in the USA and, with the help of the IP address that is also collected, summarized in a profile that can be assigned to you or your device.

You can prevent Google from processing your data by installing a browser plugin that Google itself provides: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

IP anonymization

We have activated the "IP anonymization" function within Google Analytics. For you, this means that Google truncates your IP address (from the EU or EEA) before transmitting it to the USA. Only in exceptional cases does Google transmit the full IP address to servers in the USA and only shorten it there.

Demographic characteristics

We use the "demographic characteristics" function of Google Analytics to display suitable advertisements to visitors to our website within the Google advertising network. As a result, reports may be generated that include statements about the age, gender, and interests of our site visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising from Google as well as visitor data from third parties. It is not possible to assign the collected data to specific individuals.

You can deactivate the function in the settings of your Google account.

E-commerce tracking

We use the "e-commerce tracking" function of Google Analytics. This allows us to analyze the purchasing behavior of our website visitors and improve our online marketing campaigns. E-commerce tracking records, for example, your orders, average order values, shipping costs, and the time from viewing to purchasing a product. Google can summarize the data under a transaction ID and assign it to you or your device.

How long do we store your data?

According to its own information, Google deletes or anonymizes data stored at user and event level that is linked to cookies, user identifiers (e.g. user IDs) or advertising IDs after 14 months (cf. https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7667196?hl=de).

On what legal basis do we process your data?

As a website operator, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior for the purpose of optimizing our website and the advertising placed there. The data processing is therefore lawful according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. In the event that you have consented, for example, to the storage of cookies or have otherwise consented to data processing by Google Analytics, only Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR is the legal basis. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future.


Facebook Pixel

What is Facebook Pixel?

Tool for analyzing user behavior that measures the effectiveness of advertising on Facebook.

If you do not have a Facebook account: Disable usage-based advertising from Facebook on the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance website: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/.

How do we process your data?

We use the Facebook Pixel on our website. The analytics tool helps us learn more about the behavior of visitors to our website after they click on one of our ads on Facebook. This allows us to measure how effective our Facebook ads are and align future advertising efforts with the insights we gain. The data that Facebook collects via the pixel is anonymous to us as the operator of this website. So we cannot identify you as a visitor. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook. Thus, Facebook establishes a connection to your Facebook account via the pixel and, in addition, uses the data to place advertisements itself within and outside the network (cf. Facebook Data Use Policy). In the course of storage and processing, Facebook also transmits the data to the USA and other third countries.

If you have a Facebook account, you can deactivate the "Custom Audiences" remarketing function in this account in the Advertising Settings section at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen.

If you do not have a Facebook account, it is possible to deactivate usage-based advertising from Facebook on the website of the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

As a website operator, we have a legitimate interest in effective advertising measures on social networks. The data processing is therefore lawful according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. In the event that you have consented, for example, to the storage of cookies or have otherwise consented to data processing by Facebook, only Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR is the legal basis. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future.

How do we process your data?

We use the Facebook Conversion API on our website. The analytics tool helps us learn more about the behavior of visitors to our website after they click on one of our ads on Facebook. This allows us to measure how effective our Facebook ads are and align future advertising efforts with the insights we gain. The Facebook Conversion API processes personal data such as user IDs, cookies, device IDs, and other identifying information collected by Facebook and third-party vendors. Using this data allows us to better understand our audience and create targeted advertising campaigns. However, the data is also stored and processed by Facebook. Thus, Facebook establishes a connection to your Facebook account and, in addition, uses the data to serve advertisements itself within and outside the network (see Facebook Data Use Policy). During storage and processing, Facebook also transmits the data to the USA and other third countries.

If you have a Facebook account: Disable usage-based advertising in the Ads Settings section (https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen).

If you do not have a Facebook account, you have the option to disable usage-based advertising from Facebook on the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance website: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/.

In the event that you have consented, for example, to the storage of cookies or have otherwise consented to data processing by Facebook, only Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR is the legal basis. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future.

Audio and video conferences

As a company we are in contact with many people: Customers, business partners, service providers, etc. In doing so, we also use so-called online conferencing tools for the exchange, in addition to other means of communication. Information relevant to data protection law on the provider(s) of the tools we use can be found at the end of this section. If you communicate with us via such a tool, not only we, but in particular the provider of the respective tool, process your personal data.

How do we process your data?

Online conference tools collect and store various personal data in order to enable participation in an online conference and its smooth execution. In addition to registration, conference and technical data, this also concerns certain communication content.

For details on data processing, please refer to the privacy policy of the respective conferencing tool provider.

As your communication partner, we delete your data on our systems as soon as one of the following occurs:

Data processing on social media

What is Social Media?

By social media, we mean the social networks on which we have created publicly accessible profiles. You can read below which social networks these are specifically.

Who processes your data?

The respective operating companies of the social networks. You can find the individual operators below under the respective networks.

How is your data processed?

The operators of social networks are generally able to collect and evaluate comprehensive data about the behavior of visitors and users of the network. It is not possible for us to track all processing operations on the social networks we use, which is why further processing operations not listed here may be carried out by the operators of the social networks. You can find more information on this in the terms of use and privacy statements of the respective social networks.

The processing of your data can be triggered by you visiting the website of the social network or our profile page there. Even if you visit a website that uses certain content of the network, e.g. like or share buttons, data may already be transmitted to the operators of the social network. If you yourself are a user of the social network and logged into your user account, your visit to our profile page can be assigned to your account by the operator of the social network. Even if you yourself have not registered a user account or are not logged in, the operator of the network may still collect your personal data, e.g. by recording your IP address or setting cookies. With this data, the operators can create user profiles adapted to your behavior and interests and show you interest-based advertising inside and outside the network. If you are a registered user of the network, the interest-based advertising may also be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.

On what legal basis is your data processed?

Our profiles in the social networks are intended to ensure the broadest possible presence of our company on the Internet. As a company, we have a legitimate interest in this. The data processing is therefore lawful according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

The data processing operations and analyses carried out by the operators of the social networks themselves may be based on other legal grounds. These must be stated by the operators of the social networks.

Who is responsible for the processing of your data and how can you assert your rights?

If you visit one of our profiles on the social networks, we are jointly responsible with the operator of the respective network for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. In principle, you can assert your rights both against us and against the operator of the respective network.

Despite the joint responsibility with the operators of the social networks, however, our influence on the data processing operations of the respective operator is limited and is primarily based on the operator's specifications.

How long is your data stored?

If we collect data via our profiles in the social networks, these are deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose for storing them no longer applies, you request us to delete them or you revoke your consent to storage. Stored cookies remain on your terminal device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

We have no influence on how long the operators of the social networks store your data, which the operators collect for their own purposes. You can obtain information on this directly from the operator of the respective social network, e.g. in the respective privacy policy.
