DATA PROTECTION NOTICE

The following data privacy statement applies to the use of our website.

We attach great importance to data protection. The collection and processing of your personal data are carried out in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations, and particularly the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Kickert Breitstreckwalzen GmbH
Westring 29
D-33818 Leopoldshöhe
Telefon: 05202-98280

General purposes of the processing

We use personal data for the purpose of operating our website.


What data we use and why

Hosting

The hosting services we use provide the following services, which we in turn use for the purpose of operating the website: infrastructure and platform services, computing capacity, storage space and database services, security services, and technical maintenance services.

For this purpose, we or our hosting provider process inventory data, contact data, content data, contract data, usage data, and the meta and communications data of customers, interested parties and visitors to this website on the basis of our legitimate interests in the efficient and secure provision of our website in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 28 GDPR.

Access data

We collect information about you when you use this website. We automatically collect information about your usage patterns and interaction with us, and record data about your computer or mobile device. We collect, store and use data related to every access to our website (so-called "server log files"). These access data include:

  • name and URL of the retrieved file
  • date and time of the retrieval
  • data volume transferred
  • message about successful retrieval (HTTP response code)
  • browser type and browser version
  • operating system
  • referrer URL (i.e. the previous page visited)
  • websites that are accessed by the user's system via our website
  • internet service provider of the user
  • IP address and the requesting provider

We use these log data without associating them with your person and without other profiling for statistical evaluation for the purpose of operating, securing and optimising our website. We also use them to anonymously track the number of visitors to our website (traffic) and the extent and type of use of our website and services, as well as for billing purposes to measure the number of clicks received via our partners. This information allows us to provide personalised and location-based content, as well as to analyse data traffic, troubleshoot, and improve our services.

This is also our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

However, we reserve the right to subsequently verify log data if concrete evidence reasonably suggests that data are being used unlawfully. We store IP addresses for a limited period of time in the log files if this is necessary for security purposes or for the provision or invoicing of a service, e.g. if you use one of our services. After cancellation of the order process or after receipt of payment, we delete the IP address if it is no longer required for security purposes. We also store IP addresses if we have a concrete suspicion of a crime in connection with the use of our website. In addition, we store the date of your last visit (during registration, login, clicking on links, etc.) as part of your account.


Data collected in the performance of our contractual obligations

We process personal data which we need to fulfil our contractual obligations, including your name, address, email address, products ordered, and invoicing and payment details. The collection of your personal data is necessary in order to conclude a contract.

The data will be deleted after expiry of the warranty periods and statutory retention periods. Data that are linked to a user account (see below) are retained in any case for the period of time that the account is maintained.

The legal basis for the processing of these data is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, because these data are required to enable us to fulfil our contractual obligations towards you.


E-Mail contact

When you contact us (e.g. by using our contact form or by email), we process your data insofar as this is necessary to process your query, including where follow-up questions arise.

If the data processing is carried out in order to take pre-contractual measures, which are carried out at your request, or, if you are already our customer, in order to perform the contract, the legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

We only process other personal data if you give your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) or if we have a legitimate interest in processing your data (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). A legitimate interest is, for example, to reply to your email.


Retention period

Unless specified otherwise, we only store personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil our stated purposes.

In some cases, the legislator provides for the retention of personal data, for example in tax or commercial law. In these cases, the data will only be further stored by us for these legal purposes, will not be processed in any other way, and will be deleted after expiry of the statutory retention period.

Under the applicable laws, you have various rights regarding your personal data. If you wish to exercise these rights, please send your request by email or by post, clearly identifying yourself, to the controller address mentioned above.

Further details are provided below:

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data held about you based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR for reasons arising from your particular situation.

Where personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

Where personal data are processed for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89(1) GDPR, you have the right, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to object to processing of your personal data, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, and particularly with the relevant authority in the Member State where you reside or work or where you suspect that the processing of personal data held about you is unlawful, at any time.


Data security

We make every effort to ensure the security of your data within the scope of the applicable data protection laws and in accordance with technical feasibility.

Your personal data are securely transferred to us via encryption. This applies both to your orders and your customer login. We use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption system. Please note, however, that data transfers via the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) can be subject to security vulnerabilities. It is not possible to totally safeguard your data from unauthorised access by third parties.

To secure your data, we maintain technical and organisational security measures in accordance with Art. 32 GDPR, which we continually adapt to the state of the art.

Furthermore, we do not guarantee that our website is available at specified times, as faults, interruptions and failures cannot be excluded. The servers we use are carefully backed up at regular intervals.


Data transfers to third parties (no transfers to non-eu countries)

In principle, we only use your personal data internally in our company.

If and insofar as we involve third parties in the fulfilment of contracts (e.g. logistics service providers), they will only receive personal data to the extent that the data are necessary for the corresponding service. In the event that we outsource certain aspects of data processing, we contractually oblige third-party processors to use personal data only in accordance with data protection laws and to ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject.

Data transfers to bodies or persons outside the EU in cases other than those mentioned in this privacy statement do not take place and are not anticipated to take place.
