4. Collection of general data and information

The website of Georg Heeg eK and AG collects a number of general data and information each time a person or automated system accesses the website. This general data and information are stored in the server log files. The following can be recorded: (1) browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses our website (so-called referrer), (4) the sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of an access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information which serve to prevent danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

7. Privacy policy on the deployment and usage of Facebook

The data controller has integrated components of the company Facebook on this website. Facebook is a social network.
A social network is an Internet-based social meeting place, an online community that generally allows users to communicate and interact with each other in virtual space. A social network can serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences or enables the Internet community to provide personal or company-related information. Facebook enables users of the social network to create private profiles, upload photos and networking via friend requests, among other things.
The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc. 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. The person responsible for processing personal data is, if a data subject lives outside of the USA or Canada, Facebook Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.
Each time the data controller calls up one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the data controller and on which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-in) has been integrated, the Internet browser on the IT system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Facebook component to download a display of the corresponding Facebook component from Facebook. A complete overview of all Facebook plug-ins can be found at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=de_DE . In the course of this technical process, Facebook is informed about which specific subpage of our website is visited by the data subject.
If the data subject is logged in to Facebook at the same time, Facebook recognizes which specific subpage of our website the data subject is visiting each time the data subject calls up our website and for the entire duration of their stay on our website. This information is collected by the Facebook component and assigned by Facebook to the respective Facebook account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on one of the Facebook buttons integrated on our website, for example the "Like" button, or if the data subject makes a comment, Facebook assigns this information to the personal Facebook user account of the data subject and stores this personal data.
Facebook always receives information via the Facebook component that the data subject has visited our website if the data subject is logged into Facebook at the same time when he or she accesses our website; this happens regardless of whether the data subject clicks on the Facebook component or not.

In addition, various applications are available that make it possible to suppress data transmission to Facebook. Such applications can be used by the data subject to suppress data transmission to Facebook.

8. Privacy policy on the deployment and usage of Youtube

The data controller has integrated components of YouTube on this. YouTube is an Internet video portal that allows video publishers to post video clips free of charge and other users to view, rate and comment on them free of charge. YouTube allows the publication of all types of videos, which is why complete film and television broadcasts, as well as music videos, trailers or user-created videos can be accessed via the Internet portal.
YouTube is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. YouTube, LLC is a subsidiary of Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
Each time the data controller calls up one of the individual pages of this Internet site, which is operated by the data controller and on which a YouTube component (YouTube video) has been integrated, the Internet browser on the IT system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the relevant YouTube component to download a representation of the relevant YouTube component from YouTube. Further information about YouTube can be found at https://www.youtube.com/yt/about/de/ . As part of this technical process, YouTube and Google are informed about which specific subpage of our website is visited by the data subject.
If the data subject is logged into YouTube at the same time, YouTube recognizes which specific page of our website the person concerned is visiting by calling up a subpage containing a YouTube video. This information is collected by YouTube and Google and assigned to the respective YouTube account of the data subject.
YouTube and Google receive information via the YouTube component about the fact that the data subject has visited our website if the data subject is logged on to YouTube at the same time when he or she visits our website; this happens regardless of whether the data subject clicks on a YouTube video or not.

9. Legal basis of the processing

Article 6 I point a of GDPR serves our company as a 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, such as processing operations necessary for the supply of goods or provision of another service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I point b of GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which makes it necessary to process personal data, for example to fulfill tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I point c of GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data might be necessary to protect pivotal interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor of our site were to be injured and his name, age, health insurance details or other vital information had to be disclosed to a doctor, hospital or other third party. In this case, the processing would be based on article 6 I point d of GDPR. Finally, processing operations could be based on article 6 I point of GDPR. Processing operations which are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or of a third party, unless the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject prevail. We are allowed such processing operations in particular because they are specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it represents the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (recital 47 sentence 2 of GDPR).

10. legitimate interests in the processing pursued by the controller or a third party

If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I point f of GDPR, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and our shareholders.

11. Duration for which the personal data is stored

The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the respective legal retention period. After this period has expired, the corresponding data is routinely deleted if it is no longer required for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

12. Legal or contractual provisions on the provisioning of personal data

Necessity for the conclusion of the contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-delivery
We would like to inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary for a contract to be concluded that a data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with him or her. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded. Before providing personal data by the data subject, the data subject must contact one of our employees. Our employee will inform the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is required by law or tolerated prescribed or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what the consequences would be if the personal data were not provided

13. Existence of an automated decision making process

As a responsible company, we avoid automatic decision making or profiling.
This privacy statement was created by the Privacy Policy Generator of the DGD German Association for Data Protection GmbH, which acts as External Data Protection Officer Munich, in cooperation with data protection lawyer Christian Solmecke.
