Data security

We secure our website and other systems through appropriate technical and organisational measures against loss, destruction, access, modification or distribution of your data by unauthorised persons. However, despite regular checks, complete protection against all dangers is not possible.

Our website uses the industry standard SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) for encryption. This ensures the confidentiality of your personal information over the Internet. You can tell whether encrypted transmission is taking place by the closed key/lock symbol in your browser display.

What source do we use for the data?

We process data that we receive from the business relationship with you. We receive the data directly from you, e.g. as part of a pre-contractual enquiry, the conclusion of a contract or the placing of an order.

 

Processing purposes and legal bases

In accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR, we process your personal data if you have given us consent to do so. You can revoke your consent at any time without giving reasons with effect for the future.

 

In accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. b) GDPR, we process your personal data for the purpose of fulfilling a contract to which you are a contracting party or for carrying out pre-contractual measures in response to your request.

Our contract documents and the other information provided will provide you with further details and additions to the purposes of the processing.

Advertising

 

We process your data for the purpose of direct advertising, in particular for sending you our advertising by post. The data processing is based on Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR and in the interest of informing you about new products and services. Each customer has his/her own right to object to this processing, the exercise of which leads to the termination of processing for the purpose of direct advertising. If data is stored exclusively for direct advertising, it will be deleted after the objection has been made.

 

In the case of business customers, we use the e-mail address of the contact person in accordance with Section 7 (3) of the German Unfair Competition Act (UWG) for the electronic sending of advertising for our own similar goods or services, unless you object. You have the right to object to the use of your e-mail address for direct advertising at any time.

 

Reference to a right of objection in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR in the case of direct advertising

 

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of direct marketing.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes.

 

Credit check

 

Our company is entitled to obtain credit information about your contractual partners.

For this purpose, our company will transmit your name and address to a credit agency. In the event of a negative credit rating, our company may refuse a contractual relationship with you. The legal basis for the processing is a balancing of interests. Our legitimate interest is to assess your creditworthiness and reduce the risk of payment defaults.

 

Categories of personal data that we process

– Customer master data (such as first and last name)

– Contact details (e.g. e-mail address, address, telephone no.)

– Billing and payment data (such as bank data, invoice data)

– Contract data (e.g. subject matter of the contract, delivery address, method of payment)

– Correspondence (e.g. correspondence with you)

– Advertising and sales data (e.g. products of interest to you)

 

Who receives your data?

We pass on your personal data within our company to the areas that need this data to fulfil contractual and legal obligations or to fulfil their respective tasks (e.g. sales and marketing).

 

On the basis of a balancing of interests to safeguard our legitimate interests, service providers and vicarious agents employed by us who support us in the processing of contracts may receive data for this purpose. These are service providers from the categories IT services, logistics and printing services.

In addition, data may be disclosed to third parties for the assertion of legal claims and defence in legal disputes, as well as for the prevention and investigation of criminal offences.

 

Transfer of your data to a third country or to an international organization

No transfer to a third country or to an international organization is planned.

 

How long do we store your data?

Your personal data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the aforementioned purposes. As far as necessary, we process your personal data for the duration of our business relationship.

In addition, we are subject to various storage and verification obligations, which result from the legal framework conditions, among other matters. The periods specified there for storage or provision of evidence arise, inter alia, from the German Commercial Code, the German Fiscal Code and the German Money Laundering Act, up to ten years.

Ultimately, the storage period is also assessed according to the statutory limitation periods, which, for example, according to §§ 195 et seq. of the German Civil Code (BGB), is generally three years, but can also be longer in certain cases.
