II. General Information

1. Definitions pursuant to Art. 4 of the GDPR
In this Privacy Policy, we use the following terms, among others:

Personal data
Personal data refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter “data subject”). A natural person is considered identifiable if they can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by association with an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more specific characteristics that reflect the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.

Data Subject
A data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller.

2. Legal Basis for Processing
Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for our company’s processing operations in which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party—as is the case, for example, with processing operations required for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration— the processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. The same applies to processing operations necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, such as in cases of inquiries regarding our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data—such as to fulfill tax obligations—the processing is based on Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured on our premises and, as a result, their name, age, health insurance information, or other vital information had to be disclosed to a doctor, a hospital, or other third parties. In such cases, the processing would be based on Article 6(1)(d) of the GDPR. Finally, processing operations may be based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. This legal basis applies to processing operations not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases, provided that the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, unless the interests, fundamental rights, and fundamental freedoms of the data subject take precedence. We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they were specifically mentioned by the European legislature. In this regard, the legislator took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47, Sentence 2 of the GDPR).

3. Collection of General Information
When you access our website, general information is automatically collected. This information (server log files) includes, for example, the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your Internet service provider, and similar details. This information does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your identity. This information is technically necessary to correctly deliver the website content you have requested and is inevitably generated when using the Internet. We analyze anonymous information of this kind statistically to optimize our website and the underlying technology. The legal basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

4. SSL or TLS Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the website operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. This ensures that data you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the “https://” in your browser’s address bar and by the lock icon in the browser bar.

5. Retention Period
The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. Once this period has expired, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, provided it is no longer required for the fulfillment of a contract or for entering into a contract.

6. Server Log Files
In so-called server log files, the website provider automatically collects and stores information that your browser automatically transmits to us. This includes:

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Hostname of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

For technical reasons, particularly to ensure a secure and stable website, this data is transmitted to our web hosting provider. The data collected in this manner is stored temporarily, but not in conjunction with any other data you have provided. This storage is based on the legal grounds of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in improving the stability, functionality, and security of our website. The data will be deleted after seven days at the latest, unless further retention is necessary for evidentiary purposes. Otherwise, the data is fully or partially exempt from deletion until an incident has been fully resolved.

III. Cookies

Please enable JavaScript to view the list of all declared cookies and similar technologies.

IV. Job Applications
The data controller collects and processes the personal data of job applicants for the purpose of handling the application process. Processing may also take place electronically. This is particularly the case when an applicant submits the relevant application documents to the data controller electronically, for example via email or through a web form on the website. If the data controller enters into an employment contract with an applicant, the data submitted will be stored for the purpose of administering the employment relationship in accordance with legal requirements. If the data controller does not enter into an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted six months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the data controller preclude such deletion. Other legitimate interests in this context include, for example, the burden of proof in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

V. Contact Options via the Website
In accordance with legal requirements, this website contains information that enables quick electronic contact with our company as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general electronic mail address (email address). If a data subject contacts the data controller via email or a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject is automatically stored. Such personal data, transmitted voluntarily by a data subject to the data controller, is stored for the purpose of processing the request or contacting the data subject. This personal data is not disclosed to third parties.

VI. Use of SalesViewer® Technology:
On this website, data is collected and stored using SalesViewer® technology from SalesViewer® GmbH based on the legitimate interests of the website operator (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) for marketing, market research, and optimization purposes. For this purpose, a JavaScript-based code is used to collect company-related data and for the corresponding processing. The data collected using this technology is encrypted using a one-way function that cannot be reversed (known as hashing). The data is immediately pseudonymized and is not used to personally identify visitors to this website. The data stored via Salesviewer is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for its intended purpose and there are no legal retention requirements preventing its deletion. You may object to the collection and storage of data at any time with future effect by clicking this link www.salesviewer.com/opt-out to prevent SalesViewer® from collecting data on 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 will need to click this link again.

VII. Data Subject Rights
You have the following rights with respect to your stored personal data vis-à-vis the controller:
- Right of access (Art. 15 EU GDPR)
- Rectification (Art. 16 EU GDPR)
- Erasure or restriction of processing (Art. 17 and 18 EU GDPR)
- Objection to processing (Art. 21 EU GDPR)
- Data portability (Art. 20 EU GDPR)
- Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Art. 77 EU GDPR)
You have the right to obtain information about your personal data stored by us at any time. You also have the right to have your personal data rectified, restricted, or—except for data retention required for business transactions—erased. Please contact our Data Protection Officer for this purpose. To ensure that a request to restrict access to data can be honored at any time, this data must be retained in a restricted-access file for monitoring purposes. You may also request the erasure of the data, provided there is no legal obligation to retain it. If such an obligation exists, we will block your data upon request. You may make changes or revoke your consent by notifying us accordingly, effective for the future.

VII. Changes to Our Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to occasionally update this Privacy Policy to ensure it always complies with current legal requirements or to reflect changes to our services in the Privacy Policy, e.g., when introducing new services. The new Privacy Policy will then apply to your next visit.
