3. Provision of the website and creation of the log files

Every time our website is accessed our system automatically captures data and information about the device accessing it (e.g. computer, mobile phone, tablet, etc.).

What personal data is collected and to what extent is this processed?

  1. Information about the type of browser and version being used;
  2. the operating system of the device accessing the site;
  3. host name of the computer accessing it;
  4. the device's IP address;
  5. date and time accessed;
  6. web pages and resources (images, files, other page content) accessed on our website;
  7. web pages from which the user's system came to our website (referrer tracking);
  8. a report of whether the access was successful;
  9. volume of data transmitted

This data gets stored in our system's log files. This data does not get stored along with any specific user's personal data. There is thus no identification of individual visitors to the site.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Art. 6.1f GDPR (legitimate interest).  Our legitimate interest lies in ensuring achievement of the purpose described below.

Purpose of the data processing

The temporary (automated) storing of data is necessary for the process of a website visit in order to enable the website to be delivered. The storing and processing of the personal data is also done to maintain the compatibility of our website for wherever possible all visitors and to combat misuse and resolve faults. For this purpose it is necessary to log the technical data of the computer accessing the site in order to be able to react as soon as possible to display errors, attacks on our IT systems and/or faults in the functionality of our website. The data also serves to help us optimise our website and to generally ensure the security of our IT systems.

Storage duration

Deletion of the aforementioned technical data occurs as soon as it is no longer needed in order to ensure the compatibility of the website for all visitors and in any case no later than 3 months after our site was accessed.

Objection and deletion

Pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR you are able to object at any time to the processing of your data and demand as per Art. 17 GDPR that it be deleted. What rights you have in this regard and how you can exercise them is explained later in this data protection notice.

 

4. Special website functions

When you use certain different functions offered on our site we collect, process and store personal data. We indicate below what is done with this data:

Contact form(s)

What personal data is collected and to what extent is this processed?

The data that you have entered via the contact form's input screen.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (safeguarding the legitimate interests of the controller) in order to respond to user enquiries received via the contact form;

Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (implementation of [pre-]contractual measures), if you enquire about products, goods or services offered.

Purpose of the data processing

We will use the data recorded via our contact form(s) only for processing the specific contact enquiry made via the form. Please note that in order to deal with your enquiry we may also be able to send you e-mails to the address you have stated. The purpose of this is so that you can receive a confirmation from us that your enquiry has been correctly forwarded to us. Sending this confirmation e-mail is, however, not mandatory for us and serves only to keep you informed.

Storage duration

After your enquiry has been dealt with, the data captured is promptly deleted unless any statutory retention periods exist.

Possibility of objection and erasure

You may object to the processing of your data at any time in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR and request the deletion of your data in accordance with Art. 17 GDPR. The rights to which you are entitled and information on how you can assert them can be found at the bottom of this data protection statement.

Necessity to provide personal data

Use of the contact forms is voluntary and is neither contractually nor legally prescribed. You do not have to make contact with us via the contact form. You can instead also use the other contact options indicated on our site. If you do want to use our contact form, you must fill in the fields marked as mandatory. If you do not fill in the contact form's required details, either you will be unable to submit your enquiry or we will unfortunately be unable to process it.

 

5. Involvement of external web services and processing of data outside the EU

On our website we use active content from external providers, so-called web services. Through your accessing of our website these external providers receive, where required, personal data about your visit to our site. This may lead to a processing of data outside of the EU. You can prevent this by installing an appropriate browser plug-in or by disabling in your browser the execution of scripts. This can lead to limited functionality on the websites that you visit.

We use the following external web services:

Fonts.com

We use the Fonts.com service of the company Monotype Imaging Holdings Inc., 600 Unicorn Park Drive, 01801 Woburn, USA, Email: info@fonts.com, Website: https://www.monotype.com/de on our site. The processing also takes place in a third country which is not required to follow the adequacy decision by the European Commission. Therefore, the usual level of protection required by the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) cannot be guaranteed during the outsourcing as it cannot be ruled out that authorities in the third country, for example, will not access the collected data.

The legal basis for transferring personal data is your consent on our website according to art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR / art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR.

In order to display the site in a visually enhanced version, fonts are uploaded via the Fonts.com service.

You can revoke your consent at any time. You can find detailed information on the revocation of your consent either within the consent or at the end of this data privacy statement.

You can find further information on the handling of the transferred data in the provider's data privacy statement at: http://www.monotype.com/legal/privacy-policy.

In addition, the provider offers the possibility to opt-out at http://www.monotype.com/legal/privacy-policy.

cookiebot.com

We use the services of Cookiebot of the company Usercentrics A/S, Havnegade 39, 1058 Copenhagen, Denmark, Email: privacy@cookiebot.com, Website: https://www.cookiebot.com/de/ on our page.

The legal basis for the transferring and processing is art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR. Using the service supports us with the fulfilment of our legal obligations.

With the integration of Cookiebot, we fulfil our legal obligation in regard to the consent management necessary for the use of cookies.

At the end of this data privacy statement, you find information on your rights in regard to the processing.

You can find further information about the handling of the transferred data in the provider's data privacy statement at: https://www.cookiebot.com/de/privacy-policy/

 

6. Information on the Use of Cookies

This website uses cookies. We use cookies in order to personalise content and advertising and to analyse visits to our site. In addition, we pass on information relating to your use of our site to our partners for advertising and analysis. It is possible that our partners will merge this information with other data that you have provided to them or that they have collected in the course of your use of the services.

Cookies are small text files that are used by websites to organise the user experience more efficiently.

Which personal data will be collected and to what extent will this data be processed?

We integrate and use cookies on different webpages, in order to enable specific functions on our website and to integrate external web services. These so-called cookies are small text files that your web browser could save on your access device. These text files contain a characteristic string of symbols that clearly identifies the browser, when you return to our website. The process of saving a cookie file is also called “setting a cookie”. Cookies can be set both by the website itself and by external web services.

Legal Bases for Processing Personal Data

If the cookies are processed on the basis of consent pursuant to Art. 6 Sec 1 lit a GDPR, then this consent is also deemed to be consent pursuant to §25 Sec. 1 TTDSG (Act to Regulate Data Protection and Privacy in Telecommunications and Tele media) for the setting of cookies on the terminal device of the user. Insofar as another legal basis of the GDPR is mentioned (for example the fulfilment of a contract or for the fulfilment of legal obligations), the saving and setting proceeds on the basis of an exception pursuant to §25 Sec 2 TTDSG. This is the case, "if the sole purpose of storing information in the end-user's terminal device or the sole purpose of accessing information already stored in the end-user's terminal device is to transmit communication over a public telecommunications network" or "if the storage of information in the end-user's terminal device or the access to information already stored in the end-user's terminal device is strictly necessary to enable a tele media service provider to provide a tele media service explicitly requested by the user".

Purpose of Data Processing

The cookies are set by our website or by the external web service, in order to maintain the full functionality of our website, to improve the user friendliness or in order to pursue the purpose stated with your consent. The cookie technology also enables us to recognise individual visitors with the help of pseudonyms, for example an individual or random ID so that we are able to provide more personalised services. Details are listed in the above-mentioned table.

Duration of Storage

Our cookies are stored until they are deleted in your browser or, if it is a session cookie, until the session has ended. Details are listed in the above-mentioned table.

Possibility for Objection and Elimination

You can set your browser as you wish so that the placing of cookies is prevented across the board. You are then able to decide case by case whether to accept cookies or to universally accept them. Cookies can be used for different purposes, e.g. in order to recognise that your access device is already connected to our website (permanent cookies) or to save most recently viewed offers (session cookies). If you have expressly given us permission to process your personal data, you can revoke this consent at any time. Please note that the legitimacy of the processing done on the basis of your consent up until the point at which you revoke it is not affected by this.

 

7. Data security and protection, communication by e-mail

Your personal data is protected by technical and organisational measures in such a way during its capture, storage and processing that it is not accessible to third parties. In the case of unencrypted communication by e-mail we cannot guarantee complete data security along the transmission path to our IT systems. Wherever there is a great need to keep information confidential, we therefore recommend an encrypted means of communication or sending it by post.

 

8. Automatic e-mail archiving

Extent of the processing of personal data

We specifically draw your attention to the fact that our e-mail system has an automated archiving process. It digitally archives all incoming and outgoing e-mails in a fully auditable format.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Art. 6.1c GDPR (legal obligation). The legal obligation consists in the adherence to provisions of fiscal and trade legislation (e.g. §§ 146 and 147 of the German Tax Code [AO] and §§ 238 and 257 of the German Commercial Code [HGB]).

Purpose of the data processing

The purpose of the archiving is adherence to provisions of fiscal legislation (e.g. §§ 146 and 147 of the German Tax Code [AO] – Obligation to keep e-mails of legal fiscal relevance) and trade legislation (e.g. §§ 238 and 257 of the German Commercial Code [HGB] – Obligation to archive business correspondence).

Storage duration

Our mail communication is stored until the expiry of retention obligations pursuant to fiscal and commercial law. The period of retention can be up to 10 years.

Objection and deletion

Pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR you are able to object at any time to the processing of your data and demand as per Art. 17 GDPR that it be deleted. What rights you have in this regard and how you can exercise them is explained later in this data protection notice.

Handling job application documents

If you have any questions relating to our e-mail archiving system, please contact our data protection officer. We would in addition draw your attention to the fact that we consider only application documents in the form of PDF files. Zipped files (WinZip, WinRAR, 7Zip, etc.) get filtered out by our security systems and do not get delivered to the intended recipient. Applications in Word file format and other file formats are also not considered and are deleted unread. Please note that application documents sent by e-mail unencrypted can potentially be opened by third parties before they reach our IT systems. We work on the basis that we may reply to unencrypted application mails in unencrypted format too. If you do not wish us to do so, please indicate this in your application mail.
