2. SOURCE OF PERSONAL DATA

We will process personal data that we receive when you visit our websites or contact us.
 

3. CATEGORIES OF PROCESSED PERSONAL DATA

(1) If you visit our website for information purposes only, we will collect no personal data with the exception of data that are transmitted by your browser to enable you to visit our website.

  • Your IP address, whose last segment will be truncated.
  • The remote host (name of the computer that accesses the website), if transmitted by the network.
  • Date, time, status, and transmitted data volume.
  • The website from which you were referred to the accessed website (referrer), if transmitted by the browser.
  • Information about the browser product and browser version used (user-agent), if transmitted by the browser.
  • If your user name should be transmitted by your network, it will not be stored by us.

Such data will not be merged with any other data sources. Collection of such data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 sent. 1 f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website - for this purpose, server log files must be tracked.

(2) In addition, your browser stores so-called cookies. Cookies are small text files which are stored on your device by your browser and which provide the party that places the cookie (in this case, us) with certain information. Their purpose is to make the website more user-friendly and more effective all around.

This website uses the following cookies:

  • Transient cookies: These cookies are automatically deleted when you close the browser. They include, in particular, session cookies. These cookies store a so-called session ID, with which various requests from your browser can be assigned to the joint session. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or close the browser.
     
  • Persistent cookies: These cookies are automatically deleted after a specified duration, which may differ depending on the cookie. You can delete cookies in the security settings of your browser at any time.

Collection of such data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 sent. 1 a) or f) GDPR.

(3) In addition to purely informational use of our website we offer various services that you may use if you are interested. To use those services, you will generally have to provide additional personal data, which we will then use to provide the service you have selected. Collection of such data is based on the legal justification stated for each service.

4. CONTACT FORM

If you contact us by email or via the contact form, your email address and, if you provide this information, your name, address and telephone number will be stored by us in order to answer your questions.

We collect, process, and use such data for purposes of entering into and performing contracts with you and to protect our own legitimate business interests with regard to the consultation and support of our customers and interested parties as well as needs-based product design..

We will use your data (company, name, address, product interest) to occasionally send you information about our products by mail. You will receive advertising by telephone or email only if you have given us your express permission to do so.

Processing of your personal data in connection with the contact form will be based on consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 set. 1 a) GDPR.

5. USE OF GOOGLE reCAPTCHA

To protect your orders, we use the reCAPTCHA service of Google Inc. (Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Fax: +353 (1) 436 1001; hereinafter "Google"). The purpose of the query is to distinguish information entered by humans from misuse by web robots (bots). The query includes sending the IP address and possibly additional data needed by Google for its reCAPTCHA service to Google. For this purpose data you enter will be transmitted to Google, where it will be processed further. If IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will however first be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a server of Google in the United States and truncated there (for data transfers to the United States, see Section 13 below). On behalf of the operator of this website Google will use this information to analyze your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser to reCAPTCHA will not be merged with any other data of Google. Such data are subject to the different data privacy policy of Google.

Processing of your personal data will be based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sent. 1 a) GDPR.


6. GOOGLE UNIVERSAL ANALYTICS

This website uses Google Universal Analytics with IP anonymization, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (Google Dublin, Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Fax: +353 (1) 436 1001; hereinafter "Google"). Google Universal Analytics uses cookies. Information about your use of this website generated by the cookie will generally be transferred to a Google server in the United States and stored there. By activating IP anonymization on this website your IP address will however be masked by Google within member states of the European Union or other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before your data will be transferred to the United States (for data transfers to the United States, see Section 13 below). On behalf of the operator of this website Google will use such information to analyze your use of the website, to prepare reports about website activities, and to provide additional services related to website use and Internet use to the website operator.

The IP address transmitted by your browser in connection with Google Universal Analytics will not be merged with any other data of Google.

Processing of your personal data will be based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 set. 1 a) GDPR.

Beyond the cookie settings of your browser you can also prevent Google from tracking data generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) as well as from processing such data by downloading and installing the browser plug-in that is available at this link.

Please note that on this website Google Universal Analytics has been extended by the code "ga('set', 'anonymizeIp', true);" to guarantee anonymous tracking of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). As a result, IP addresses are processed in truncated form ruling out any possibility of associating an IP address directly with a particular person.

We use Google Analytics in order to be able to analyze and continuously improve use of our website. The statistical data generated by Google Analytics allow us to improve our products and services and to make them more interesting to you as a user.


7. USERCENTRICS CONSENT-MANAGEMENT-PLATTFORM

We use the Usercentrics Consent Management Platform (Usercentrics) of Usercentrics GmbH, Rosental 4, 80331 Munich, Germany. Usercentrics collects log file data and consent data using JavaScript. JavaScript enables us to inform users about their consent to certain cookies and other technologies on our website and to obtain, manage, and document this consent.

The legal basis for the processing of such data is Art. 6 para. 1 sent. 1 c) GDPR. The purpose is to get to know the preferences of users and to act accordingly.

Such data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer needed for our logging purposes.

You can permanently prevent the execution of JavaScript at any time by choosing the appropriate settings in your browser, which would also prevent Usercentrics from executing JavaScript.

8. Integration of YouTube

We have integrated YouTube videos into our website, which are stored at http://www.YouTube.com and can be played directly from our website. All videos are integrated in "expanded data protection mode", which means that no data about you, the user, will be transmitted to YouTube if you do not play the videos.

Only when you play videos will the data described below be transferred. We have no influence on such data transfers. Our data processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 sent. 1 a) GDPR.

As a result of your visit of the website, YouTube - a service of Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Fax: +353 (1) 436 1001) - will receive the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. This will occur regardless of whether YouTube provides a user account via which you are logged in or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not want data to be assigned to your profile at YouTube, you must log out before activating the button. YouTube will store your data in the form of user profiles and use them for the purposes of advertising, market research, and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an analysis will be performed in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide demand-oriented advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of such a user profile, and you must contact YouTube to exercise this right. Google will also process your personal data in the United States (for data transfers to the United States, see Section 13.).

Poly-clip System will process such data to process your order and perform the associated contract. Processing of your personal data will be based on Art. 6 para. 1 sent. 1 b) GDPR.

b. Performance of contractual obligations or precontractual measures (Art. 6 para. sent. 1 b) GDPR)

We process personal data to perform contracts in order to comply with our contractual obligations or to take requested precontractual measures.

In terms of transferring data to other recipients, we will transfer information about you only if we are required to do so by law, if you have consented, or if we otherwise have the right to transfer your data.

14. CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING THE TIME PERIOD FOR WHICH PERSONAL DATA ARE STORED

The time period of data storage depends on when the purpose of data processing ends and on any subsequent legal recordkeeping obligations.
