  1. Usage data

When you visit our website, so-called usage data is temporarily analysed on our web server as a log for statistical purposes in order to improve the quality of our website. This data record consists of

  • the name and address of the requested content,
  • the date and time of the request,
  • the amount of data transferred,
  • the access status (content transferred, content not found),
  • the description of the web browser and operating system used,
  • the referral link, which indicates from which page you came to ours,
  • the IP address of the requesting computer.

The legal basis for the processing of usage data is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. The processing is carried out in the legitimate interest of providing the content of the website and ensuring a device- and browser-optimised display.

  1. Storage of the IP address for security purposes

In addition, we store the full IP address transmitted by your web browser for a strictly earmarked period of 7 days in the interest of recognising, limiting and eliminating attacks on our websites. After this period has expired, we delete or anonymise the IP address. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

  1. Data security

We take technical and organisational measures to protect your data from unauthorised access as comprehensively as possible. We use an encryption process on our websites. Your data is transmitted from your computer to our server and vice versa via the Internet using TLS encryption. You can usually recognise this by the fact that the lock symbol in the status bar of your browser is closed and the address line begins with https://.

  1. Required cookies

We use cookies on our websites that are necessary for the use of our websites.

Cookies are small text files that can be stored and read on your end device. A distinction is made between session cookies, which are deleted as soon as you close your browser, and permanent cookies, which are stored beyond the individual session.

We do not use these necessary cookies for analysis, tracking or advertising purposes.

Some of these cookies only contain information on certain settings and are not personally identifiable. They may also be necessary to enable user guidance, security and implementation of the site.

We use these cookies on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

You can set your browser so that it informs you about the placement of cookies. You can also delete them at any time via the corresponding browser setting and prevent the setting of new cookies. Please note that our web pages may then not be displayed in full and some functions may no longer be technically available.

  1. Contact and registration forms

You have the option of contacting us via our contact form or registering for an event. To use our forms, we first need the data marked as mandatory fields.

We use this data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR to answer your enquiry or to process your registration. In addition, you can decide for yourself whether you wish to provide us with further information. This information is provided voluntarily and is not mandatory for making contact or registering. We process your voluntary information on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

Your data will only be processed to answer your enquiry or for registration purposes. We will delete your data if it is no longer required and there are no legal obligations to retain it.

If your data transmitted via the contact form is processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, you can object to the processing at any time. You can also revoke your consent to the processing of voluntary information at any time. To do so, please contact the email address provided in the legal notice.

  1. Access-protected area

If you wish to use our access-protected area, prior registration is required. We only collect the data required for registration. The processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR or on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR in the interest of providing you with the services and information of the access-protected area.

If we collect additional data, this is labelled as voluntary and is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

If you would like to permanently unsubscribe from our access-protected area, please use the unsubscribe option provided in the area.

  1. Storage duration

Unless we have already informed you in detail about the storage period, we delete personal data when it is no longer required for the aforementioned processing purposes and no statutory retention obligations prevent deletion.

  1. Forwarding of data

Personal data will not be transferred to third parties for purposes other than those listed below.

We only pass on your personal data to third parties if:

  • you have given your express consent to this in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR,
  • the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in not disclosing your data,
  • in the event that there is a legal obligation for disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR, and
  • this is legally permissible and necessary for the processing of contractual relationships with you in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR.
  1. Links to other websites

We have included links on our website to other websites or to content hosted on such third-party websites. This applies in particular to links to events to which we draw attention under the "Events" category. In detail, this concerns the following:

  • dbh.de (a service of dbh Logistics IT AG, Martinistr. 47-49, 28195 Bremen);
  • dakosy.de (a service of DAKOSY Datenkommunikationssystem AG, Mattentwiete 2, 20457 Hamburg).

The integration of the relevant content or links as such does not result in any processing of personal data. However, if you click on one of these buttons, you will be redirected to the respective website. The data protection information there applies.

  1. Your rights as a data subject

When processing your personal data, the GDPR grants you certain rights as a data subject:

a. Right to information (Art. 15 GDPR)

You have the right to request confirmation as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed; if this is the case, you have a right to information about this personal data and to the information listed in detail in Art. 15 GDPR.

b. Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR))

You have the right to demand the immediate correction of incorrect personal data concerning you and, if necessary, the completion of incomplete data.

c. Right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)

You have the right to demand that personal data concerning you be deleted immediately if one of the reasons listed in Art. 17 GDPR applies.

d. Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)

You have the right to request the restriction of processing if one of the conditions listed in Art. 18 GDPR is met, e.g. if you have objected to the processing, for the duration of the examination by the controller.

e. Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)

In certain cases, which are listed in detail in Art. 20 GDPR, you have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in a structured, common and machine-readable format or to request the transfer of this data to a third party.

f. Right of cancellation (Art. 7 GDPR)

If the processing of data is based on your consent, you are entitled to withdraw your consent to the use of your personal data at any time in accordance with Art. 7 (3) GDPR. Please note that the revocation only takes effect for the future. Processing that took place before the revocation is not affected.

g. Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data is collected on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR (data processing to protect legitimate interests) or on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. e GDPR (data processing to protect the public interest or in the exercise of official authority), you have the right to object to the processing at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. We will then no longer process the personal data unless there are demonstrably compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

h. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR)

In accordance with Art. 77 GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you are of the opinion that the processing of data concerning you violates data protection regulations. The right to lodge a complaint can be exercised in particular with a supervisory authority in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement.

i. Assertion of your rights

Unless otherwise described above, please contact the offices named in section 1 to assert your rights as a data subject.
