Privacy Statement

The protection and safety of personal details are extremely important to us, which is why we adhere strictly to the rules of the European Data Protection Regulation (EU-GDPR). The following information explains what kind of details we collect and why.

Data transmission / data logging

When you visit this page, our WEB server automatically stores and processes information in a log file. This process is anonymised; it is not possible to draw any conclusions about your person. This data is only collected for the purpose of statistical analysis. It is not passed on to third parties or used for commercial or non-commercial purposes.

Use of personal details   

Personal details will only be collected or processed if you agree to us doing so, e.g. in response to a query. Unless there are any reasons in association with a business transaction why you should not do so, you can revoke your consent allowing us to use your personal details with immediate effect in writing (e.g. by email or fax). Your details will not be passed on to third parties unless this is required by law.

Subscribing to our newsletter

If you have subscribed to our newsletter, we will use your details to send you, at regular intervals, information on new products, current offers and our customer services.

We need a valid email address for an effective registration. In order to confirm that a registration really has come from the owner of an email address, we use the "Double opt-in" method. For this, we log the subscription to the newsletter, the sending of a confirmation email and the receipt of the required reply. These details are used exclusively for sending the newsletter, and will not be passed on to third parties. In order to be able to provide you with relevant information, we collect further details such as your country and the customer group as well as your email address. 

Withdrawal and cancellation:

You can withdraw your agreement to receiving the newsletter at any time and cancel your subscription.

On receipt of your cancellation, your personal details will be deleted. Your agreement to receiving the newsletter will be cancelled at the same time. You will find the cancellation link at the end of every newsletter.

If you take advantage of this opportunity, the following data will be transmitted to us from the input mask: First name, last name, company, customer group, country and your e-mail address. The IP address as well as the date and time of registration are also stored. For an effective registration, we need a valid e-mail address. For this reason, you will receive an e-mail with a confirmation link at the end of the process. After successful registration, you can log in to the event platform via the login button. 

The legal basis for processing the data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO if the user has given their consent. The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. You also have the option to revoke your consent to the processing of personal data (see right of objection).

Retargeting and remarketing

Retargeting or remarketing are technologies that display suitable advertising to users who have previously visited a certain website, even after they have left this website. For this purpose, it is necessary to recognise internet users beyond their own website, for which cookies of the corresponding service providers are used. In addition, previous usage behaviour is taken into account. For example, if a user looks at certain products, these or similar products can later be displayed as advertisements on other websites. This is personalised advertising that is adapted to the needs of the individual user. For this personalised advertising, it is not necessary for the user to be identified beyond recognition. We therefore do not combine the data used for retargeting or remarketing with any other data.

We use such technologies (from third-party providers) to place ads on the Internet. For this purpose, we use, among other things, offers from Google, which enables the automatic display of products that are of interest to the Internet user. This function is implemented by cookies. For more information on this technology, please refer to the Google privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de. The installation of cookies for Google Remarketing and Google AdWords Conversion Tracking can be prevented by a setting of the respective browser software (see http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/ads/) and a change of the corresponding setting.

Furthermore, we use the conversion tracking technology "Microsoft Advertising" from Microsoft (Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA). Microsoft sets a cookie on your computer if you have accessed our website via a Microsoft Adveristing ad. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your terminal device. These cookies lose their validity after 180 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Microsoft and we can recognise that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page (conversion page).

The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics, i.e. to record how many users reach a conversion page after clicking on an ad. This tells us the total number of users who clicked on our ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified.

You can find more information about Microsoft's privacy policy at the following Internet address: https://privacy.microsoft.com/de-de/privacystatement.
