2) Purposes and legal basis for the collection of personal data

contact form

The data entered in the contact form will be stored by us so that we can process your enquiry and be available for any follow-up questions. This data will not be passed on without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form will be processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You may revoke your consent at any time. To revoke your consent, simply send us an informal email. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Data transmitted via the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to its storage, or there is no longer any need for data storage. Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Newsletter “Frei-Lacke Journal”

We require your email address to send you the newsletter. Registration is carried out using the double opt-in procedure, i.e. after registering, you will receive another email in which you must confirm your registration via a link (consent). The data will be used exclusively for sending the newsletter.

The data provided when registering for the newsletter will be processed exclusively on the basis of your voluntary consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). You may revoke your consent at any time. To withdraw your consent, simply send us an informal email or unsubscribe using the “Unsubscribe” link in the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

online application

You can submit an online application via our career portal. The data is transmitted in encrypted form. We store the data as part of the process of filling vacant positions and do not use this data for any other purposes.

The legal basis is your consent given when submitting the online application in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR, which you can revoke at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for revocation.

Once the application process has been completed or if you withdraw your application, the data you provided as part of your application will be deleted in accordance with the applicable regulations.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Cookies help us to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure.

Some cookies are “session cookies.” These cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your browser session. Other cookies, however, remain on your device until you delete them yourself. These cookies help us to recognise you when you return to our website.

With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict or prevent the setting of cookies. Many web browsers can be configured so that cookies are automatically deleted when the programme is closed. Deactivating cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.

The setting of cookies that are necessary for the performance of electronic communication processes or the provision of certain functions requested by you (e.g. shopping basket) is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services. If other cookies (e.g. for analysis functions) are set, these are dealt with separately in this privacy policy.

Google-Maps

This site uses the Google Maps map service via an API. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

In order to use the functions of Google Maps, it is necessary to store your IP address. This information is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transfer.

We consider the use of Google Maps to be justified in the interests of ensuring that the locations specified on our website can be easily found, in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

For more information on how user data is handled, please refer to Google’s privacy policy:

Google-Analytics

Our website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider of the web analytics service is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses “cookies.” These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device and enable analysis of website usage. Information generated by cookies about your use of our website is transmitted to a Google server and stored there. The server location is usually in the United States.

Google Analytics cookies are set on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise our website and, where applicable, our advertising.

IP anonymisation

We use Google Analytics in conjunction with the IP anonymisation function. This ensures that Google truncates your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission to the United States. There may be exceptional cases in which Google transmits the full IP address to a server in the United States and truncates it there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

Browser Plug-in

You can prevent your web browser from setting cookies. However, this may restrict some of the functions of our website. You can also prevent Google from collecting data relating to your website usage, including your IP address, and subsequently processing it. You can do this by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Objection to data collection

You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set to prevent your data from being collected on future visits to this website: Disable Google Analytics.

Details on how Google Analytics handles user data can be found in Google’s privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

YouTube

Our website uses plugins from YouTube to integrate and display video content. The video portal is provided by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

When you visit a page with an integrated YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. YouTube thereby learns which of our pages you have visited.

YouTube can assign your surfing behaviour directly to your personal profile if you are logged into your YouTube account. You can prevent this by logging out beforehand.

YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offerings. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

Details on how user data is handled can be found in YouTube’s privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
