Nature, scope and purpose of the processing of personal data

When visiting the website

When you visit our website for information purposes, the servers located in Germany store only the personal data that your browser transmits to our servers in a log file on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR.

The following data is collected when you visit our website and stored by us until automated deletion:

  • data and time of access;
  • name and URL of the retrieved file;
  • website from which access is made;
  • operating system of your computer, and browser used by you;
  • IP address;
  • name of your Internet service provider.
     

The collection and processing of this data regarding date, time, name and URL of the accessed file, website from which the access takes place, is done for the purpose of enabling the use of the website (connection establishment), to deliver the contents of our website correctly and to ensure system security and stability on a permanent basis. Data processing with regard to information on the operating system and browser used, as well as the name of the Internet service provider, is used to enable the technical administration of the network infrastructure and the optimization of our Internet offering, as well as for internal statistical purposes. The IP address is only evaluated in the event of attacks on our network infrastructure and for statistical purposes. The processing of this data is based on our legitimate interest in protecting our website from unauthorized access. At the same time, we want to constantly improve our offer for our customers and therefore rely on statistical evaluations.
 

Processing and storage in the European Union

Data centre operation

The data is stored on servers of ]init[ AG, Köpenicker Str. 9, 10997 Berlin, Germany. ]init[ AG is an application, service and hosting provider for regional and international customers in the eGovernment and business sectors. The data centre infrastructure of ]init[ AG is certified according to ISO 27001 on the basis of IT-Protection.

Storage duration and deletion

We process and store personal data of the data subject only for the period of time required to achieve the purpose of storage or if required by the GDPR or other regulations due to e.g. special retention periods (storage period). In the case of a visit to our website, your data will be stored for a maximum of 7 days for the purpose of detecting and defending against attacks.

If the purpose of storage no longer applies or if a prescribed storage period expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions.

Links

This privacy policy does not extend to websites linked from our website that are not operated by us. We have no influence on whether these sites also comply with our data protection and security standards. The content of linked pages is the sole responsibility of their providers. Obviously illegal content was not identifiable at the time of linking using a reasonable standard of review. If we become aware of any infringements, such links will be removed immediately.

Cookies

No cookies are set when you visit our website. 

eTracker web statistics

On this website, data is collected and stored using technologies from etracker GmbH (www.etracker.com ) for statistical purposes only. We do not create user profiles from this data and do not use it for retargeting.

We use the technologies provided by etracker for this purpose, which do not set cookies.

The data thus generated is processed and stored by etracker exclusively in Germany and is thus subject to strict German and European data protection laws and standards. etracker has been independently audited and certified in this regard and awarded the  ePrivacyseal data protection seal of approval.

Data processing is carried out on the basis of the legal provisions of Art. 6 para.1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest). Our concern in the sense of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest) is the optimization of our online offer and our web presence. To protect your privacy, we have activated the shortening of the IP address in the etracker technology. In this way, a direct personal reference is excluded. We do not use the data in any other way, combine it with other data from etracker or pass it on to third parties.

You can object to the aforementioned data processing at any time by clicking on the slider. The objection has no adverse consequences. If no slider is displayed, the data collection is already prevented by other blocking measures.

Social Media

Data processing through social networks

We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social networks. The main social networks used by us in Portugal is Linkedin.

Social networks can generally analyze your user behavior when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g., like buttons or advertising banners). By visiting our social media presences, numerous data protection-relevant processing operations are triggered. 

In detail:
If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected under certain circumstances if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In this case, this data collection takes place, for example, via cookies that are stored on your terminal device or by recording your IP address.

With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, you can be shown interest-based advertising inside and outside the respective social media presence. Provided you have an account with the respective social network, the interest-based advertising may be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.

Please also note that we cannot track all processing on the social media portals. Depending on the provider, further processing operations may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. For details, please refer to the terms of use and data protection provisions of the respective social media portals.

We would like to point out that when using social media portals, your data may be processed outside the area of the European Union. For the USA, there is an adequacy decision of the EU Commission, the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework (TADPF). Providers certified under TADPF have committed to comply with European data protection principles and are marked "TADPF certified" below. In the case of providers not covered by the TADPF, it cannot be guaranteed that data processing is subject to the same level of protection as within the EU. In this respect, there is a certain risk that it will be more difficult for you to enforce your rights with regard to the personal data concerning you. In addition, there is no data protection supervision in the USA comparable to that in the EU. Furthermore, there is a risk of disproportionate access to user data by state security authorities, against which no effective legal protection is regularly available.

We expressly draw your attention to this. An overview of TADPF certified providers can be found here: Participant Search at dataprivacyframework.gov .

Legal basis

Our social media presences are intended to ensure the most comprehensive presence possible on the Internet. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on different legal bases, which are to be specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR).

Responsibility and assertion of rights

If you visit one of our social media sites (e.g. Linkedin), we are jointly responsible with the operator of the social media platform for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. In principle, you can assert your rights (information, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint) both vis-à-vis us and vis-à-vis the operator of the respective social media portal.

Please note that despite the joint responsibility with the social media portal operators, we do not have full influence on the data processing operations of the social media portals. Our options are largely determined by the corporate policy of the respective provider.
 

Storage time

The data collected directly by us via the social media presence is deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose for storing it no longer applies, you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your terminal device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

We have no influence on the storage period of your data, which is stored by the operators of social networks for their own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the social networks directly (e.g. in their privacy policy, see below).
