2. Privacy Policy In Detail:

We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our enterprise. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of Christian Albert Mueller. The use of the Internet pages or other Services of Christian Albert Mueller like Mobile Applications is possible without any indication of personal data; however, if a data subject wants to use special enterprise services via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to the Christian Albert Mueller. By means of this data protection declaration, our enterprise would like to inform the general public of the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed, by means of this data protection declaration, of the rights to which they are entitled.

As the controller, the Christian Albert Mueller has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions may in principle have security gaps, so absolute protection may not be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transfer personal data to us via alternative means, e.g. by telephone.

1. Definitions

The data protection declaration of the Christian Albert Mueller is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

4. Cookies

The Internet pages of the Christian Albert Mueller use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser.

Many Internet sites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a character string through which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited Internet sites and servers to differentiate the individual browser of the dats subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified using the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, the Christian Albert Mueller can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized with the user in mind. Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognize our website users. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website. The website user that uses cookies, e.g. does not have to enter access data each time the website is accessed, because this is taken over by the website, and the cookie is thus stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online shop. The online store remembers the articles that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.

The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used, and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all popular Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be entirely usable.

5. Collection of general data and information

The website and Mobile Apps of Christian Albert Mueller collects a series of general data and information when a data subject or automated system calls up the website. This general data and information are stored in the server log files. Collected may be (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites, (5) the date and time of access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) any other similar data and information that may be used in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using these general data and information, the Christian Albert Mueller does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website as well as its advertisement, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our information technology systems and website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack. Therefore, the Christian Albert Mueller analyzes anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

5.1  Registration on our website and mobile application

The data subject has the possibility to register on the website of the controller with the indication of personal data. Which personal data are transmitted to the controller is determined by the respective input mask used for the registration. The personal data entered by the data subject are collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the controller, and for his own purposes. The controller may request transfer to one or more processors (e.g. a parcel service) that also uses personal data for an internal purpose which is attributable to the controller.

By registering on the website of the controller, the IP address—assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) and used by the data subject—date, and time of the registration are also stored. The storage of this data takes place against the background that this is the only way to prevent the misuse of our services, and, if necessary, to make it possible to investigate committed offenses. Insofar, the storage of this data is necessary to secure the controller. This data is not passed on to third parties unless there is a statutory obligation to pass on the data, or if the transfer serves the aim of criminal prosecution.

The registration of the data subject, with the voluntary indication of personal data, is intended to enable the controller to offer the data subject contents or services that may only be offered to registered users due to the nature of the matter in question. Registered persons are free to change the personal data specified during the registration at any time, or to have them completely deleted from the data stock of the controller.

The data controller shall, at any time, provide information upon request to each data subject as to what personal data are stored about the data subject. In addition, the data controller shall correct or erase personal data at the request or indication of the data subject, insofar as there are no statutory storage obligations. The entirety of the controller’s employees are available to the data subject in this respect as contact persons.

6. Processing of Positioning and Location Data

Location-based services establish location through the use of satellite, mobile, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or other network-based positioning methods. These technologies may involve exchanging your location data and unique device and mobile, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or other network related identifiers. We may operate on multiple device platforms, applications and services which may also collect your location data. When you use our platforms, applications and services, your location data is processed to serve you with content, which may also include location-based advertising. We may share location and positioning data and information with our partner companies. Legal basis for processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

7. Subscription to our newsletters

On the website of the Christian Albert Mueller, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our enterprise’s newsletter. The input mask used for this purpose determines what personal data are transmitted, as well as when the newsletter is ordered from the controller.

The Christian Albert Mueller informs its customers and business partners regularly by means of a newsletter about enterprise offers. The enterprise’s newsletter may only be received by the data subject if (1) the data subject has a valid e-mail address and (2) the data subject registers for the newsletter shipping. A confirmation e-mail will be sent to the e-mail address registered by a data subject for the first time for newsletter shipping, for legal reasons, in the double opt-in procedure. This confirmation e-mail is used to prove whether the owner of the e-mail address as the data subject is authorized to receive the newsletter.

During the registration for the newsletter, we also store the IP address of the computer system assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) and used by the data subject at the time of the registration, as well as the date and time of the registration. The collection of this data is necessary in order to understand the (possible) misuse of the e-mail address of a data subject at a later date, and it therefore serves the aim of the legal protection of the controller.

The personal data collected as part of a registration for the newsletter will only be used to send our newsletter. In addition, subscribers to the newsletter may be informed by e-mail, as long as this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or a registration in question, as this could be the case in the event of modifications to the newsletter offer, or in the event of a change in technical circumstances. There will be no transfer of personal data collected by the newsletter service to third parties. The subscription to our newsletter may be terminated by the data subject at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data, which the data subject has given for shipping the newsletter, may be revoked at any time. For the purpose of revocation of consent, a corresponding link is found in each newsletter. It is also possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time directly on the website of the controller, or to communicate this to the controller in a different way.

8. Newsletter-Tracking

The newsletter of the Christian Albert Mueller contains so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic embedded in such e-mails, which are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and analysis. This allows a statistical analysis of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, the Christian Albert Mueller may see if and when an e-mail was opened by a data subject, and which links in the e-mail were called up by data subjects.

Such personal data collected in the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters are stored and analyzed by the controller in order to optimize the shipping of the newsletter, as well as to adapt the content of future newsletters even better to the interests of the data subject. These personal data will not be passed on to third parties. Data subjects are at any time entitled to revoke the respective separate declaration of consent issued by means of the double-opt-in procedure. After a revocation, these personal data will be deleted by the controller. The Christian Albert Mueller automatically regards a withdrawal from the receipt of the newsletter as a revocation.

9. Contact possibility via the website

The website of the Christian Albert Mueller contains information that enables a quick electronic contact to our enterprise, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a data subject contacts the controller by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject are automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the data controller are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties.

10. Comments function in the blog on the website

The Christian Albert Mueller offers users the possibility to leave individual comments on individual blog contributions on a blog, which is on the website of the controller. A blog is a web-based, publicly-accessible portal, through which one or more people called bloggers or web-bloggers may post articles or write down thoughts in so-called blogposts. Blogposts may usually be commented by third parties.

If a data subject leaves a comment on the blog published on this website, the comments made by the data subject are also stored and published, as well as information on the date of the commentary and on the user’s (pseudonym) chosen by the data subject. In addition, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) to the data subject is also logged. This storage of the IP address takes place for security reasons, and in case the data subject violates the rights of third parties, or posts illegal content through a given comment. The storage of these personal data is, therefore, in the own interest of the data controller, so that he can exculpate in the event of an infringement. This collected personal data will not be passed to third parties, unless such a transfer is required by law or serves the aim of the defense of the data controller.

11. Subscription to comments in the blog on the website

The comments made in the blog of the Christian Albert Mueller may be subscribed to by third parties. In particular, there is the possibility that a commenter subscribes to the comments following his comments on a particular blog post.

If a data subject decides to subscribe to the option, the controller will send an automatic confirmation e-mail to check the double opt-in procedure as to whether the owner of the specified e-mail address decided in favor of this option. The option to subscribe to comments may be terminated at any time.

12. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data

The data controller shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted by the European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject to.

The operating company of AddThis is AddThis, Inc. 1595 Spring Hill Road, Suite 300, Vienna, VA 22182, United States.

By calling up one of the individual pages of the website, which is operated by the controller, and on which an AddThis component has been integrated, the Internet browser of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective AddThis component to download data from the website www.addthis.com. Within the framework of this technical procedure, AddThis is informed of the visit and the specific individual page of this website that was used by the data subject with the help of information technology. In addition, AddThis is informed about the IP address of the computer system assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) and used by the data subject, the browser type and language, the web page accessed before our website, the date and the time of the visit to our website. AddThis uses this data to create anonymous user profiles. The data and information transmitted to AddThis in this way will enable the enterprise AddThis, as well as affiliates or their partner-enterprises, to contact visitors of the web pages of the controller with personalized and interest-based advertising.

AddThis displays personalized and interest-based advertising on the basis of a cookie set by the enterprise. This cookie analyzes the individual surfing behavior of the computer system used by the data subject. The cookie saves the computer-based outgoing visits to Internet pages.

The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used, and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent AddThis from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. Cookies may also be deleted by AddThis at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs.

The data subject also has the possibility of objecting permanently to the processing of personal data by AddThis. For this purpose, the data subject must click on the opt-out button under the link http://www.addthis.com/privacy/opt-out, which sets an opt-out cookie.

Web analytics is the collection, gathering and analysis of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analysis service captures, among other things, data about from which website a person has arrived on another website (the so-called referrer), which sub-sites of the website were visited or how often and for what duration a sub-site was viewed. Web analytics are mainly used for the optimization of a website and in order to carry out a cost-benefit analysis of Internet advertising.

The operating company of Etracker is Etracker GmbH, Erste Brunnenstraße 1, 20459 Hamburg, Germany.

Etracker sets a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. The definition of cookies is explained above. With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet site, which is operated by the controller and into which an Etracker component was integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted to transmit data for marketing and optimisation purposes to Etracker through the Etracker component. During the course of this technical procedure Etracker receives data that is used to create pseudonymous user profiles. The user profiles created in such a way are used for the analysis of the behaviour of the data subject, which has accessed Internet page of the controller and are evaluated with the aim of improving and optimizing the website. The data collected through the Etracker component is not used without first obtaining of a separate and explicit consent of the data subject to identify the data subject. This data is not merged with personal data or other data which contain the same pseudonym.

The data subject may, as stated above, at any time prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding adjustment of the Internet browser used and, permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such an adjustment to the Internet browser used would also prevent Etracker from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, cookies already set by Etracker may be deleted at any time via a Web browser or other software programs.

In addition, the data subject has the possibility of objecting to a collection of data relating to a use of this Internet site that are generated by the Etracker cookie as well as the processing of these data by Etracker and the chance to preclude such. For this purpose, the data subject must press the ‘cookie-set’ button under the link http://www.etracker.de/privacy?sid=58e31c864e66848984dfc79b8f6b51a9&id=privacy&et=V23Jbb&languageId=2, which sets an opt-out cookie.

17. Data protection provisions about the application and use of Facebook

On this website, the controller has integrated components of the enterprise Facebook. Facebook is a social network.

A social network is a place for social meetings on the Internet, an online community, which usually allows users to communicate with each other and interact in a virtual space. A social network may serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences, or enable the Internet community to provide personal or business-related information. Facebook allows social network users to include the creation of private profiles, upload photos, and network through friend requests.

The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, United States. If a person lives outside of the United States or Canada, the controller is the Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet website, which is operated by the controller and into which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-ins) was integrated, the web browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted to download display of the corresponding Facebook component from Facebook through the Facebook component. An overview of all the Facebook Plug-ins may be accessed under https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/. During the course of this technical procedure, Facebook is made aware of what specific sub-site of our website was visited by the data subject.

If the data subject is logged in at the same time on Facebook, Facebook detects with every call-up to our website by the data subject—and for the entire duration of their stay on our Internet site—which specific sub-site of our Internet page was visited by the data subject. This information is collected through the Facebook component and associated with the respective Facebook account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on one of the Facebook buttons integrated into our website, e.g. the “Like” button, or if the data subject submits a comment, then Facebook matches this information with the personal Facebook user account of the data subject and stores the personal data.

Facebook always receives, through the Facebook component, information about a visit to our website by the data subject, whenever the data subject is logged in at the same time on Facebook during the time of the call-up to our website. This occurs regardless of whether the data subject clicks on the Facebook component or not. If such a transmission of information to Facebook is not desirable for the data subject, then he or she may prevent this by logging off from their Facebook account before a call-up to our website is made.

The data protection guideline published by Facebook, which is available at https://facebook.com/about/privacy/, provides information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by Facebook.

19. Data protection provisions about the application and use of Google AdSense

On this website, the controller has integrated Google AdSense. Google AdSense is an online service which allows the placement of advertising on third-party sites. Google AdSense is based on an algorithm that selects advertisements displayed on third-party sites to match with the content of the respective third-party site. Google AdSense allows an interest-based targeting of the Internet user, which is implemented by means of generating individual user profiles.

The operating company of Google’s AdSense component is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

The purpose of Google’s AdSense component is the integration of advertisements on our website. Google AdSense places a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. The definition of cookies is explained above. With the setting of the cookie, Alphabet Inc. is enabled to analyze the use of our website. With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet site, which is operated by the controller and into which a Google AdSense component is integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject will automatically submit data through the Google AdSense component for the purpose of online advertising and the settlement of commissions to Alphabet Inc. During the course of this technical procedure, the enterprise Alphabet Inc. gains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which serves Alphabet Inc., inter alia, to understand the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently create commission settlements.

The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such an adjustment to the Internet browser used would also prevent Alphabet Inc. from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. Additionally, cookies already in use by Alphabet Inc. may be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs.

Furthermore, Google AdSense also uses so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in web pages to enable a log file recording and a log file analysis through which a statistical analysis may be performed. Based on the embedded tracking pixels, Alphabet Inc. is able to determine if and when a website was opened by a data subject, and which links were clicked on by the data subject. Tracking pixels serve, inter alia, to analyze the flow of visitors on a website.

Through Google AdSense, personal data and information—which also includes the IP address, and is necessary for the collection and accounting of the displayed advertisements—is transmitted to Alphabet Inc. in the United States of America. These personal data will be stored and processed in the United States of America. The Alphabet Inc. may disclose the collected personal data through this technical procedure to third parties.

Google AdSense is further explained under the following link https://www.google.com/intl/en/adsense/start/.

20. Data protection provisions about the application and use of Google Analytics (with anonymization function)

On this website, the controller has integrated the component of Google Analytics (with the anonymizer function). Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics is the collection, gathering, and analysis of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analysis service collects, inter alia, data about the website from which a person has come (the so-called referrer), which sub-pages were visited, or how often and for what duration a sub-page was viewed. Web analytics are mainly used for the optimization of a website and in order to carry out a cost-benefit analysis of Internet advertising.

The operator of the Google Analytics component is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

For the web analytics through Google Analytics the controller uses the application “_gat. _anonymizeIp”. By means of this application the IP address of the Internet connection of the data subject is abridged by Google and anonymised when accessing our websites from a Member State of the European Union or another Contracting State to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze the traffic on our website. Google uses the collected data and information, inter alia, to evaluate the use of our website and to provide online reports, which show the activities on our websites, and to provide other services concerning the use of our Internet site for us.

Google Analytics places a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. The definition of cookies is explained above. With the setting of the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet site, which is operated by the controller and into which a Google Analytics component was integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject will automatically submit data through the Google Analytics component for the purpose of online advertising and the settlement of commissions to Google. During the course of this technical procedure, the enterprise Google gains knowledge of personal information, such as the IP address of the data subject, which serves Google, inter alia, to understand the origin of visitors and clicks, and subsequently create commission settlements.

The cookie is used to store personal information, such as the access time, the location from which the access was made, and the frequency of visits of our website by the data subject. With each visit to our Internet site, such personal data, including the IP address of the Internet access used by the data subject, will be transmitted to Google in the United States of America. These personal data are stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may pass these personal data collected through the technical procedure to third parties.

The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such an adjustment to the Internet browser used would also prevent Google Analytics from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, cookies already in use by Google Analytics may be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs.

In addition, the data subject has the possibility of objecting to a collection of data that are generated by Google Analytics, which is related to the use of this website, as well as the processing of this data by Google and the chance to preclude any such. For this purpose, the data subject must download a browser add-on under the link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and install it. This browser add-on tells Google Analytics through a JavaScript, that any data and information about the visits of Internet pages may not be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-ons is considered an objection by Google. If the information technology system of the data subject is later deleted, formatted, or newly installed, then the data subject must reinstall the browser add-ons to disable Google Analytics. If the browser add-on was uninstalled by the data subject or any other person who is attributable to their sphere of competence, or is disabled, it is possible to execute the reinstallation or reactivation of the browser add-ons.

21. Data protection provisions about the application and use of Google Remarketing

On this website, the controller has integrated Google Remarketing services. Google Remarketing is a feature of Google AdWords, which allows an enterprise to display advertising to Internet users who have previously resided on the enterprise’s Internet site. The integration of Google Remarketing therefore allows an enterprise to create user-based advertising and thus shows relevant advertisements to interested Internet users.

The operating company of the Google Remarketing services is the Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

The purpose of Google Remarketing is the insertion of interest-relevant advertising. Google Remarketing allows us to display ads on the Google network or on other websites, which are based on individual needs and matched to the interests of Internet users.

Google Remarketing sets a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. The definition of cookies is explained above. With the setting of the cookie, Google enables a recognition of the visitor of our website if he calls up consecutive web pages, which are also a member of the Google advertising network. With each call-up to an Internet site on which the service has been integrated by Google Remarketing, the web browser of the data subject identifies automatically with Google. During the course of this technical procedure, Google receives personal information, such as the IP address or the surfing behaviour of the user, which Google uses, inter alia, for the insertion of interest relevant advertising.

The cookie is used to store personal information, e.g. the Internet pages visited by the data subject. Each time we visit our Internet pages, personal data, including the IP address of the Internet access used by the data subject, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. These personal data are stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may pass these personal data collected through the technical procedure to third parties.

The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such an adjustment to the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, cookies already in use by Google may be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs.

In addition, the data subject has the possibility of objecting to the interest-based advertising by Google. For this purpose, the data subject must call up the link to www.google.de/settings/ads and make the desired settings on each Internet browser used by the data subject.

A social network may serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences, or enable the Internet community to provide personal or business-related information. Google+ allows users of the social network to include the creation of private profiles, upload photos and network through friend requests.

The operating company of Google+ is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Google+ button has been integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject automatically downloads a display of the corresponding Google+ button of Google through the respective Google+ button component. During the course of this technical procedure, Google is made aware of what specific sub-page of our website was visited by the data subject. More detailed information about Google+ is available under https://developers.google.com/+/.

If the data subject is logged in at the same time to Google+, Google recognizes with each call-up to our website by the data subject and for the entire duration of his or her stay on our Internet site, which specific sub-pages of our Internet page were visited by the data subject. This information is collected through the Google+ button and Google matches this with the respective Google+ account associated with the data subject.

If the data subject clicks on the Google+ button integrated on our website and thus gives a Google+ 1 recommendation, then Google assigns this information to the personal Google+ user account of the data subject and stores the personal data. Google stores the Google+ 1 recommendation of the data subject, making it publicly available in accordance with the terms and conditions accepted by the data subject in this regard. Subsequently, a Google+ 1 recommendation given by the data subject on this website together with other personal data, such as the Google+ account name used by the data subject and the stored photo, is stored and processed on other Google services, such as search-engine results of the Google search engine, the Google account of the data subject or in other places, e.g. on Internet pages, or in relation to advertisements. Google is also able to link the visit to this website with other personal data stored on Google. Google further records this personal information with the purpose of improving or optimizing the various Google services.

Through the Google+ button, Google receives information that the data subject visited our website, if the data subject at the time of the call-up to our website is logged in to Google+. This occurs regardless of whether the data subject clicks or doesn’t click on the Google+ button.

If the data subject does not wish to transmit personal data to Google, he or she may prevent such transmission by logging out of his Google+ account before calling up our website.

Further information and the data protection provisions of Google may be retrieved under https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/. More references from Google about the Google+ 1 button may be obtained under https://developers.google.com/+/web/buttons-policy.

In the Google Advertising Network, the ads are distributed on relevant web pages using an automatic algorithm, taking into account the previously defined keywords.

The operating company of Google AdWords is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

The purpose of Google AdWords is the promotion of our website by the inclusion of relevant advertising on the websites of third parties and in the search engine results of the search engine Google and an insertion of third-party advertising on our website.

If a data subject reaches our website via a Google ad, a conversion cookie is filed on the information technology system of the data subject through Google. The definition of cookies is explained above. A conversion cookie loses its validity after 30 days and is not used to identify the data subject. If the cookie has not expired, the conversion cookie is used to check whether certain sub-pages, e.g, the shopping cart from an online shop system, were called up on our website. Through the conversion cookie, both Google and the controller can understand whether a person who reached an AdWords ad on our website generated sales, that is, executed or canceled a sale of goods.

The data and information collected through the use of the conversion cookie is used by Google to create visit statistics for our website. These visit statistics are used in order to determine the total number of users who have been served through AdWords ads to ascertain the success or failure of each AdWords ad and to optimize our AdWords ads in the future. Neither our company nor other Google AdWords advertisers receive information from Google that could identify the data subject.

The conversion cookie stores personal information, e.g. the Internet pages visited by the data subject. Each time we visit our Internet pages, personal data, including the IP address of the Internet access used by the data subject, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. These personal data are stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may pass these personal data collected through the technical procedure to third parties.

The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as stated above, by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from placing a conversion cookie on the information technology system of the data subject.

On this website, the controller has integrated components of YouTube. YouTube is an Internet video portal that enables video publishers to set video clips and other users free of charge, which also provides free viewing, review and commenting on them. YouTube allows you to publish all kinds of videos, so you can access both full movies and TV broadcasts, as well as music videos, trailers, and videos made by users via the Internet portal.

The operating company of YouTube is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet site, which is operated by the controller and on which a YouTube component (YouTube video) was integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted to download a display of the corresponding YouTube component. Further information about YouTube may be obtained under https://www.youtube.com/yt/about/en/. During the course of this technical procedure, YouTube and Google gain knowledge of what specific sub-page of our website was visited by the data subject.

If the data subject is logged in on YouTube, YouTube recognizes with each call-up to a sub-page that contains a YouTube video, which specific sub-page of our Internet site was visited by the data subject. This information is collected by YouTube and Google and assigned to the respective YouTube account of the data subject.

YouTube and Google will receive information through the YouTube component that the data subject has visited our website, if the data subject at the time of the call to our website is logged in on YouTube; this occurs regardless of whether the person clicks on a YouTube video or not. If such a transmission of this information to YouTube and Google is not desirable for the data subject, the delivery may be prevented if the data subject logs off from their own YouTube account before a call-up to our website is made.

YouTube’s data protection provisions, available at https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/, provide information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by YouTube and Google.

29. Data protection provisions about the application and use of DoubleClick

On this website, the controller has integrated components of DoubleClick by Google. DoubleClick is a trademark of Google, under which predominantly special online marketing solutions are marketed to advertising agencies and publishers.

The operating company of DoubleClick by Google is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

DoubleClick by Google transmits data to the DoubleClick server with each impression, clicks, or other activity. Each of these data transfers triggers a cookie request to the data subject’s browser. If the browser accepts this request, DoubleClick uses a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. The definition of cookies is explained above. The purpose of the cookie is the optimization and display of advertising. The cookie is used, inter alia, to display and place user-relevant advertising as well as to create or improve reports on advertising campaigns. Furthermore, the cookie serves to avoid multiple display of the same advertisement.

DoubleClick uses a cookie ID that is required to execute the technical process. For example, the cookie ID is required to display an advertisement in a browser. DoubleClick may also use the Cookie ID to record which advertisements have already been displayed in a browser in order to avoid duplications. It is also possible for DoubleClick to track conversions through the cookie ID. For instance, conversions are captured, when a user has previously been shown a DoubleClick advertising ad, and he or she subsequently makes a purchase on the advertiser’s website using the same Internet browser.

A cookie from DoubleClick does not contain any personal data. However, a DoubleClick cookie may contain additional campaign IDs. A campaign ID is used to identify campaigns that the user has already been in contact with.

With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a DoubleClick component was integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective DoubleClick component to send data for the purpose of online advertising and billing of commissions to Google. During the course of this technical procedure, Google gains knowledge of any data that Google may use to create commission calculations. Google may, inter alia, understand that the data subject has clicked on certain links on our website.

The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such an adjustment to the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, cookies already in use by Google may be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs.

Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of DoubleClick may be retrieved under DoubleClick by Google https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/.

30. Data protection provisions about the application and use of Tradedoubler

On this website, the controller has integrated components of TradeDoubler. TradeDoubler is a German affiliate network, which offers affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing is an Internet-based sales form that enables commercial operators of Internet sites, the so-called merchants or advertisers, to place advertising that is usually paid via click or sale commissions on third-party websites, e.g. sales partners, also called affiliates or publishers. The merchant provides, through the affiliate network, an advertising medium, e.g. an advertising banner or other suitable means of Internet advertising, which is subsequently integrated by an affiliate on their own Internet pages or promoted via other channels, such as keyword advertising or e-marketing.

The operating company of TradeDoubler is TradeDoubler GmbH, Herzog-Wilhelm-Straße 26, 80331 München, Germany.

TradeDoubler sets a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. The definition of cookies is explained above. TradeDoubler’s tracking cookie stores no personal data. Only the identification number of the affiliate, that is, the partner mediating the potential customer, as well as the ordinal number of the visitor of a website and the clicked advertising medium are stored. The purpose of storing this data is the processing of commission payments between a merchant and affiliate, which are processed via the affiliate network, that is TradeDoubler.

The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the web browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such an adjustment to the Internet browser used would also prevent TradeDoubler from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, cookies already in use by TradeDoubler may be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs.

PayPal as a payment processor

On this website, the controller has integrated components of PayPal. PayPal is an online payment service provider. Payments are processed via so-called PayPal accounts, which represent virtual private or business accounts. PayPal is also able to process virtual payments through credit cards when a user does not have a PayPal account. A PayPal account is managed via an e-mail address, which is why there are no classic account numbers. PayPal makes it possible to trigger online payments to third parties or to receive payments. PayPal also accepts trustee functions and offers buyer protection services.

The European operating company of PayPal is PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. & Cie. S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, 2449 Luxembourg, Luxembourg.

If the data subject chooses “PayPal” as the payment option in the online shop during the ordering process, we automatically transmit the data of the data subject to PayPal. By selecting this payment option, the data subject agrees to the transfer of personal data required for payment processing.

The personal data transmitted to PayPal is usually first name, last name, address, email address, IP address, telephone number, mobile phone number, or other data necessary for payment processing. The processing of the purchase contract also requires such personal data, which are in connection with the respective order.

The transmission of the data is aimed at payment processing and fraud prevention. The controller will transfer personal data to PayPal, in particular, if a legitimate interest in the transmission is given. The personal data exchanged between PayPal and the controller for the processing of the data will be transmitted by PayPal to economic credit agencies. This transmission is intended for identity and creditworthiness checks.

PayPal will, if necessary, pass on personal data to affiliates and service providers or subcontractors to the extent that this is necessary to fulfill contractual obligations or for data to be processed in the order.

The data subject has the possibility to revoke consent for the handling of personal data at any time from PayPal. A revocation shall not have any effect on personal data which must be processed, used or transmitted in accordance with (contractual) payment processing.

The applicable data protection provisions of PayPal may be retrieved under   https://www.paypal.com/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full

41. Device permissions for Personal Data access (this Application)

Personal Data collected: Approximate location permission (continuous), Approximate location permission (non-continuous), Bluetooth sharing permission, Camera permission, Contacts permission, Motion sensors permission, Phone permission, Precise location permission (continuous), Precise location permission (non-continuous), Reminders permission, Sensors permission, SMS permission, Social media accounts permission and Storage permission.

This Permissions are use to improve the app functionality, like intelligent reminders, save photos within the application and advertising purposes. This Data may be shared with 3rd Parties under the legal Terms of GDPR. You have the right to request what 3rd Parties are used to improve our Services.

Collection of personal information

We receive and store any information you knowingly provide to us when you create an account, publish content, make a purchase, fill any online forms in the Mobile Application. When required this information may include your email address, name, phone number, address, credit card information, or other Personal Information. You can choose not to provide us with certain information, but then you may not be able to take advantage of some of the Mobile Application’s features. Users who are uncertain about what information is mandatory are welcome to contact us.

Collection of non-personal information

When you open the Mobile Application our servers automatically record information that your device sends. This data may include information such as your device’s IP address and location, device name and version, operating system type and version, language preferences, information you search for in our Mobile Application, access times and dates, and other statistics.

Information transfer and storage

Depending on your location, data transfers may involve transferring and storing your information in a country other than your own. You are entitled to learn about the legal basis of information transfers to a country outside the European Union or to any international organization governed by public international law or set up by two or more countries, such as the UN, and about the security measures taken by us to safeguard your information. If any such transfer takes place, you can find out more by checking the relevant sections of this document or inquire with us using the information provided in the contact section.

42. Legal basis for the processing

Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for 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 party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service, the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries concerning our products or services. Is our company subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR.
In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR.
Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a client of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

43. The legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favor of the well-being of all our employees and the shareholders.

44. Period for which the personal data will be stored

The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

45. Children Protection

Minimum Age to use our Service is 16 years. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the minimum Age.  If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your Children has provided us with Personal Data, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers. However, if law requires that you must be older in order for Christian Albert Mueller to lawfully provide the Services to you without parental consent (including using of your personal data) then the Minimum Age is such older age.

46. Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement; Requirement necessary to enter into a contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data

We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner).

Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded.

Before personal data is provided by the data subject, the data subject must contact any employee. The employee clarifies to the data subject whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and the consequences of non-provision of the personal data.

47. Disclosure of Data

Business Transaction

If Christian Albert Mueller is involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, your Personal Data may be transferred. We will provide notice before your Personal Data is transferred and becomes subject to a different Privacy Policy.

Disclosure for Law Enforcement

Under certain circumstances, Christian Albert Mueller may be required to disclose your Personal Data if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g. a court or a government agency).

Legal Requirements

Christian Albert Mueller may disclose your Personal Data in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to:

  • To comply with a legal obligation
  • To protect and defend the rights or property of Christian Albert Mueller
  • To prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Service
  • To protect the personal safety of users of the Service or the public
  • To protect against legal liability

48. Existence of automated decision-making

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.

This Privacy Policy has been generated by the Privacy Policy Generator of the German Association for Data Protection that was developed in cooperation with Privacy Lawyers from WILDE BEUGER SOLMECKE, Cologne.

Additional adjustments where done from Christian Albert Mueller to reflect and include the use of Mobile Applications.

49.  Changes and amendments

We reserve the right to modify this privacy policy relating to the Mobile Application or Services at any time, effective upon posting of an updated version of this Policy in the Mobile Application. When we do we will revise the updated date at the bottom of this page. Continued use of the Webpage or Mobile Application after any such changes shall constitute your consent to such changes.

Transparency Policy

Information about the Processing of Personal Data (Article 13, 14 GDPR)

Dear Sir or Madam, 

The personal data of every individual who is in a contractual, pre-contractual or other relationship with our company deserve special protection. Our goal is to keep our data protection level to a high standard. Therefore, we are constantly developing our data protection and data security concepts.

Of course, we comply with the statutory provisions on data protection. According to Article 13, 14 GDPR, controllers meet specific information requirements when collecting personal data. This document fulfills these obligations.

The terminology of legal regulations is complicated. Unfortunately, the use of legal terms could not be dispensed with in the preparation of this document. Therefore, we would like to point out that you are always welcome to contact us for all questions concerning this document, the used terms or formulations.

C. Purposes of the processing for which the personal data are intended as well as the legal basis for the processing (Article 13(1) lit. c GDPR) 

The purpose of the processing of personal data is the handling of all operations which concern the controller, customers, prospective customers, business partners or other contractual or pre-contractual relations between the named groups (in the broadest sense) or legal obligations of the controller.

Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for 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 party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service, the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries concerning our products or services. Is our company subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR.

In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR.

Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a client of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

D. Where the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party (Article 13(1) lit. d GDPR) 

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favor of the well-being of all our employees and the shareholders.

E. Categories of recipients of the personal data (Article 13(1) lit. e GDPR) 

Public authorities 

External bodies

Further external bodies

Internal processing 

Intragroup processing 

Other bodies

F. Recipients in a third country and appropriate or suitable safeguards and the means by which to obtain a copy of them or where they have been made available (Article 13(1) lit. f, 46(1), 46 (2) lit. c GDPR)

All companies and branches that are part of our group (hereinafter referred to as “group companies”) that have their place of business or an office in a third country may belong to the recipients of personal data. A list of all group companies or recipients can be requested from us.

According to Article 46(1) GDPR a controller or processor may transfer personal data only to a third country if the controller or processor has provided appropriate safeguards, and on condition that enforceable data subject rights and effective legal remedies for data subjects are available. Appropriate safeguards may be provided without requiring any specific authorisation from a supervisory authority by means of standard contractual clauses, Article 46(2) lit. c GDPR.

The standard contractual clauses of the European Union or other appropriate safeguards are agreed on with all recipients from third countries before the first transmission of personal data. Consequently, it is ensured that appropriate safeguards, enforceable data subject rights and effective legal remedies for data subjects are guaranteed. Every data subject can obtain a copy of the standard contractual clauses from us. The standard contractual clauses are also available in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJ 2010 / L 39, page 5-18).

G. Period for which the personal data will be stored, or if that is not possible, the criteria used to determine that period (Article 13(2) lit. a GDPR) 

The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

H. Existence of the right to request from the controller access to and rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing concerning the data subject or to object to processing as well as the right to data portability (Article 13(2) lit. b GDPR) 

All data subjects have the following rights: 

  1. Right to access

Each data subject has a right to access the personal data concerning him or her. The right to access extends to all data processed by us. The right can be exercised easily and at reasonable intervals, in order to be aware of, and verify, the lawfulness of the processing (Recital 63 GDPR). This right results from Art. 15 GDPR. The data subject may contact us to exercise the right to access.

  1. Right to rectification

According to Article 16 Sentence 1 GDPR the data subject has the right to obtain from the controller without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him or her. Moreover, Article 16 Sentence 2 GDPR provides that the data subject is entitled, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to have incomplete personal data completed, including by means of providing a supplementary statement. The data subject may contact us to exercise the right of rectification.

  1. Right to erasure (right to be forgotten) 

In addition, data subjects are entitled to a right to erasure and to be forgotten under Art. 17 GDPR. This right can also be exercised by contacting us. At this point, however, we would like to point out that this right does not apply insofar as the processing is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject to, Article 17(3) lit. b GDPR. This means that we can approve an application to erase only after the expiration of the statutory retention period.

  1. Right to restriction of processing 

According to Article 18 GDPR any data subject is entitled to a restriction of processing. The restriction of processing may be demanded if one of the conditions set out in Article 18(1) lit. a-d GDPR is fulfilled. The data subject may contact us to exercise the right to restriction of processing.

  1. Right to object 

Furthermore, Art. 21 GDPR guarantees the right to object. The data subject may contact us to exercise the right to object.

  1. Right to data portability

Art. 20 GDPR grants the data subject the right to data portability. Under this provision, the data subject has under the conditions laid down in Article 20(1) lit. a and b GDPR the right to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which he or she has provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided. The data subject may contact us to exercise the right to data portability.

I. The existence of the right to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal, where the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. a GDPR or Article 9(2) lit. a GDPR (Article 13(2) lit. c GDPR)

If processing of personal data is based on Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR, which is the case, if the data subject has given consent to the processing of personal data for one or more specific purposes or is it based on Article 9(2) lit. a GDPR, which regulates the explicit consent to the processing of special categories of personal data, the data subject has according to Article 7(3) Sentence 1 GDPR the right to withdraw his or her consent at any time.

Withdraw of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal, Article 7(3) Sentence 2 GDPR. It shall be as easy to withdraw as to give consent, Art. 7(3) Sentence 4 GDPR. Therefore, the withdrawal of consent can always take place in the same way as consent has been given or in any other way, that is considered by the data subject to be simpler. In todays information society, probably the simplest way to withdraw consent is a simple email. If the data subject wishes to withdraw his or her consent granted to us, a simple email to us is sufficient. Alternatively, the data subject may choose any other way to communicate his or her withdraw of consent to us.

J. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Article 13(2) lit. d, 77(1) GDPR) 

As the controller, we are obliged to notify the data subject of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, Article 13(2) lit. d GDPR. The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority is regulated by Article 77(1) GDPR. According to this provision, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, every data subject shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of his or her habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to him or her infringes the General Data Protection Regulation. The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority was only limited by the law of the Union in such way, that it can only be exercised before a single supervisory authority (Recital 141 Sentence 1 GDPR). This rule is intended to avoid double complaints of the same data subject in the same matter. If a data subject wants to lodge a complaint about us, we therefore asked to contact only a single supervisory authority.

K. Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement; Requirement necessary to enter into a contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data (Art. 13(2) lit. e GDPR) 

We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner).

Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded.

Before personal data is provided by the data subject, the data subject must contact us. We clarify to the data subject whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and the consequences of non-provision of the personal data.

L. Existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, referred to in Article 22(1) and (4) GDPR and, at least in those cases, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject (Article 13 (2) lit. f GDPR)

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.

C. Purposes of the processing for which the personal data are intended as well as the legal basis for the processing (Article 14(1) lit. c GDPR) 

The purpose of the processing of personal data is the handling of all operations which concern the controller, customers, prospective customers, business partners or other contractual or pre-contractual relations between the named groups (in the broadest sense) or legal obligations of the controller.

If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service, the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries concerning our products or services. Is our company subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR.

In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR.

Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a client of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

D. Categories of personal data concerned (Article 14(1) lit. d GDPR) 

Customer data

Data of potential customers

Data of employees

Data of suppliers

E. Categories of recipients of the personal data (Article 14(1) lit. e GDPR) 

Public authorities 

External bodies

Further external bodies 

Internal processing 

Intragroup processing 

Other bodies 

F. Recipients in a third country and appropriate or suitable safeguards and the means by which to obtain a copy of them or where they have been made available (Article 14(1) lit. f, 46(1), 46(2) lit. c GDPR)

All companies and branches that are part of our group (hereinafter referred to as “group companies”) that have their place of business or an office in a third country may belong to the recipients of personal data. A list of all group companies can be requested from us. 

According to Article 46(1) GDPR a controller or processor may transfer personal data only to a third country if the controller or processor has provided appropriate safeguards, and on condition that enforceable data subject rights and effective legal remedies for data subjects are available. Appropriate safeguards may be provided without requiring any specific authorisation from a supervisory authority by means of standard data protection clauses, Article 46(2) lit. c GDPR.

The standard contractual clauses of the European Union or other appropriate safeguards are agreed on with all recipients from third countries before the first transmission of personal data. Consequently, it is ensured that appropriate safeguards, enforceable data subject rights and effective legal remedies for data subjects are guaranteed. Every data subject can obtain a copy of the standard contractual clauses from us. The standard contractual clauses are also available in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJ 2010 / L 39, page 5-18). 

G. Period for which the personal data will be stored, or if that is not possible, the criteria used to determine that period (Article 14(2) lit. a GDPR) 

The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

H. Notification of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party if the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR (Art. 14(2) lit. b GDPR)

According to Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR, processing shall be lawful only if the processing is necessary for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data. According to Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR a legitimate interest could exist where there is a relevant and appropriate relationship between the data subject and the controller, e.g. in situations where the data subject is a client of the controller. In all cases in which our company processes personal data based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is in carrying out our business in favor of the well-being of all our employees and the shareholders.

I. Existence of the right to request from the controller access to and rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing concerning the data subject and to object to processing as well as the right to data portability (Article 14(2) lit. c GDPR) 

All data subjects have the following rights:

  1. Right to access

Each data subject has a right to access the personal data concerning him or her. The right to access extends to all data processed by us. The right can be exercised easily and at reasonable intervals, in order to be aware of, and verify, the lawfulness of the processing (Recital 63 GDPR). This right results from Art. 15 GDPR. The data subject may contact us to exercise the right to access.

  1. Right to rectification

According to Article 16 Sentence 1 GDPR the data subject has the right to obtain from the controller without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him or her. Moreover, Article 16 Sentence 2 GDPR provides that the data subject is entitled, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to have incomplete personal data completed, including by means of providing a supplementary statement. The data subject may contact us to exercise the right of rectification.

  1. Right to erasure (right to be forgotten) 

In addition, data subjects are entitled to a right to erasure and to be forgotten under Art. 17 GDPR. This right can also be exercised by contacting us. At this point, however, we would like to point out that this right does not apply insofar as the processing is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject to, Article 17(3) lit. b GDPR. This means that we can approve an application to erase only after the expiration of the statutory retention period.

  1. Right to restriction of processing

According to Article 18 GDPR any data subject is entitled to restriction of processing. The restriction of processing may be demanded if one of the conditions set out in Article 18(1) lit. a-d GDPR is fulfilled. The data subject may contact us to exercise the right to restriction of processing.

  1. Right to object 

Furthermore, Art. 21 GDPR guarantees the right to object. The data subject may contact us to exercise the right to object.

  1. Right to data portability

Art. 20 GDPR grants the data subject the right to data portability. According to this provision the data subject has under the conditions laid down in Article 20(1) lit. a and b GDPR the right to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which he or she has provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided. The data subject may contact us to exercise the right to data portability.

J. The existence of the right to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal, where the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. a or Article 9(2) lit. a GDPR (Art. 14(2) lit. d GDPR)

If processing of personal data is based on Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR, which is the case, if the data subject has given consent to the processing of personal data for one or more specific purposes or is it based on Article 9(2) lit. a GDPR, which regulates the explicit consent to the processing of special categories of personal data, the data subject has according to Article 7(3) Sentence 1 GDPR the right to withdraw his or her consent at any time.

Withdraw of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal, Article 7(3) Sentence 2 GDPR. It shall be as easy to withdraw as to give consent, Art. 7(3) Sentence 4 GDPR. Therefore, the withdrawal of consent can always take place in the same way as consent has been given or in any other way, that is considered by the data subject to be simpler. In todays information society, probably the simplest way to withdraw consent is a simple email. If the data subject wishes to withdraw his or her consent granted to us, a simple email to us is sufficient. Alternatively, the data subject may choose any other way to communicate his or her withdraw of consent to us.

K. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Article 14(2) lit. e, 77(1) GDPR) 

As the controller, we are obliged to notify the data subject of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, Article 14(2) lit. e GDPR. The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority is regulated by Article 77(1) GDPR. According to this provision, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, every data subject shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of his or her habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to him or her infringes the General Data Protection Regulation. The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority was only limited by the law of the Union in such way, that it can only be exercised before a single supervisory authority (Recital 141 Sentence 1 GDPR). This rule is intended to avoid double complaints of the same data subject in the same matter. If a data subject wants to lodge a complaint about us, we therefore asked to contact only a single supervisory authority.

L. Source the personal data originate, and if applicable, whether it came from publicly accessible sources (Article 14(2) lit. f GDPR) 

In principle, personal data is collected directly from the data subject or in cooperation with an authority (e.g. retrieval of data from an official register). Other data on data subjects are derived from transfers of group companies. In the context of this general information, the naming of the exact sources from which personal data is originated is either impossible or would involve a disproportionate effort within the meaning of Art. 14(5) lit. b GDPR. In principle, we do not collect personal data from publicly accessible sources.

Any data subject can contact us at any time to obtain more detailed information about the exact sources of the personal data concerning him or her. Where the origin of the personal data cannot be provided to the data subject because various sources have been used, general information should be provided (Recital 61 Sentence 4 GDPR).

Information about the Processing of Personal Data for Employees and Applicants (Article 13, 14 GDPR)

Personal data of employees and applicants deserves special protection. Our goal is to keep our data protection level to a high standard. Therefore, we are constantly developing our data protection and data security concepts.

Of course, we comply with the statutory provisions on data protection. According to Article 13, 14 GDPR, controllers meet specific information requirements when processing personal data. This document fulfills these obligations.The terminology of legal regulation is complicated. Unfortunately, the use of legal terms could not be dispensed with in the preparation of this document. Therefore, we would like to point out that you are always welcome to contact us for all questions concerning this document, the terms used or formulations.

C. Purposes of the processing for which the personal data are intended as well as the legal basis for the processing (Article 13(1) lit. c GDPR) 

For applicant’s data, the purpose of data processing is to conduct an examination of the application during the recruitment process. For this purpose, we process all data provided by you. Based on the data submitted during the recruitment process, we will check whether you are invited to a job interview (part of the selection process). In case of generally suitable candidates, in particular in the context of the job interview, we process certain other personal data provided by you, which is essential for our selection decision. If you are hired by us, applicant’s data will automatically change into employee data. As part of the recruitment process, we will process other personal data about you that we request from you and that is required to initiate or fulfill your contract (such as personal identification numbers or tax numbers). For employee data, the purpose of data processing is the performance of the employment contract or compliance with other legal provisions applicable to the employment relationship (e.g. tax law) as well as the use of your personal data to carry out the employment contract concluded with you (e.g. publication of your name and the contact information within the company or to customers). Employee data is stored after termination of the employment relationship to fulfill legal retention periods.

The legal basis for data processing is Article 6(1) lit. b GDPR, Article 9(2) lit. b and h GDPR, Article 88 (1) GDPR and national legislation, such as for Germany Section 26 BDSG (Federal Data Protection Act).

F. Period for which the personal data will be stored, or if that is not possible, the criteria used to determine that period (Article 13(2) lit. a GDPR) 

The duration of storage of personal data of applicants is 6 months. For employee data the respective statutory retention period applies. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

G. Existence of the right to request from the controller access to and rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing concerning the data subject or to object to processing as well as the right to data portability (Article 13(2) lit. b GDPR) 

All data subjects have the following rights: 

Right to access

Each data subject has a right to access the personal data concerning him or her. The right to access extends to all data processed by us. The right can be exercised easily and at reasonable intervals, in order to be aware of, and verify, the lawfulness of the processing (Recital 63 GDPR). This right results from Art. 15 GDPR.

This means that we can approve an application to erase only after the expiration of the statutory retention period.

Right to restriction of processing 

According to Article 18 GDPR any data subject is entitled to a restriction of processing. The restriction of processing may be demanded if one of the conditions set out in Article 18(1) lit. a-d GDPR is fulfilled. The data subject may contact us to exercise the right to restriction of processing.

The data subject may contact us to exercise the right to data portability.

H. The existence of the right to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal, where the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. a GDPR or Article 9(2) lit. a GDPR (Article 13(2) lit. c GDPR)

If processing of personal data is based on Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR, which is the case, if the data subject has given consent to the processing of personal data for one or more specific purposes or is it based on Article 9(2) lit. a GDPR, which regulates the explicit consent to the processing of special categories of personal data, the data subject has according to Article 7(3) Sentence 1 GDPR the right to withdraw his or her consent at any time.

I. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Article 13(2) lit. d, 77(1) GDPR) 

As the controller, we are obliged to notify the data subject of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, Article 13(2) lit. d GDPR. The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority is regulated by Article 77(1) GDPR. According to this provision, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, every data subject shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of his or her habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to him or her infringes the General Data Protection Regulation.

This rule is intended to avoid double complaints of the same data subject in the same matter. If a data subject wants to lodge a complaint about us, we therefore asked to contact only a single supervisory authority.

J. Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement; Requirement necessary to enter into a contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data (Art. 13(2) lit. e GDPR) 

We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner).

Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded.

As the controller, we are obliged to notify the data subject of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, Article 14(2) lit. e GDPR. The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority is regulated by Article 77(1) GDPR. According to this provision, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, every data subject shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of his or her habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to him or her infringes the General Data Protection Regulation. The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority was only limited by the law of the Union in such way, that it can only be exercised before a single supervisory authority (Recital 141 Sentence 1 GDPR). This rule is intended to avoid double complaints of the same data subject in the same matter. If a data subject wants to lodge a complaint about us, we therefore asked to contact only a single supervisory authority.

L. Source the personal data originate, and if applicable, whether it came from publicly accessible sources (Article 14(2) lit. f GDPR) 

In principle, personal data is collected directly from the data subject or in cooperation with an authority (e.g. retrieval of data from an official register). Other data on data subjects are derived from transfers of group companies. In the context of this general information, the naming of the exact sources from which personal data is originated is either impossible or would involve a disproportionate effort within the meaning of Art. In principle, we do not collect personal data from publicly accessible sources.

Any data subject can contact us at any time to obtain more detailed information about the exact sources of the personal data concerning him or her. Where the origin of the personal data cannot be provided to the data subject because various sources have been used, general information should be provided (Recital 61 Sentence 4 GDPR).

M. Existence of automated decision- making, including profiling, referred to in Article 22(1) and (4) GDPR and, at least in those cases, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject (Article 14(2) lit. g GDPR)

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.

versions of the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement,
the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, a Data Processing Agreement
