Data protection

PRIVACY POLICY

1. Website privacy policy

Thank you for your interest in our website. We are committed to protecting your privacy. Our website is designed accordingly and allows you to decide which of your personal data we receive and the purposes for which we can process or use it.

This privacy policy informs you about the nature, scope and purpose of the collection and use of your data and how you can exercise your data-related rights. You can access the privacy policy at any time by clicking the link at the bottom of any page.

Open access to the website; restricted area

You can visit the public areas of our website at any time without disclosing or saving any personal data.

Certain areas such as the “Retailer area” are only intended for authorised persons and can only be accessed with appropriate personal login details. The logins are saved. As the usernames are linked to specific people, they are classed as personal data. However, extranet use is evaluated on a personal level only to identify accounts that are inactive for an extended period and to deactivate them for security reasons. The use of various areas of the extranet is also statistically evaluated, for example to identify training requirements.

As a team administrator, you are able to create and manage individual login details for your employees. In doing so, you provide us with the following data: name, department, telephone number, e-mail address. It is your responsibility to create a suitable legal basis for sharing your employees’ data with us (e.g. consent). If no such legal basis is confirmed, the data will be deleted after 14 days.

We use this data solely to send information about products and support services available from retail partners.

The legal basis for this processing is the performance of a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. We will store the personal data in line with legal retention periods and then delete it.

Newsletter

We regularly send our newsletter to members of the retailer area using the e-mail address provided during registration. The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest according to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. You can withdraw your agreement to receive our newsletter at any time, without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs in accordance with the basic tariffs.

Newsletters are sent by CleverReach GmbH & Co. KG, Schafjückenweg 2, 26180 Rastede. CleverReach is a service that enables newsletters to be scheduled and analysed. Data used for the purposes of the newsletter (e.g. e-mail address) is saved on the CleverReach servers in Germany or Ireland. We have entered into a processing agreement with CleverReach.

Newsletters sent by CleverReach enable us to analyse the behaviour of the newsletter recipients. For example, we are able to analyse how many recipients have opened the newsletter and how often each link in the newsletter has been clicked on. Using conversion tracking, it is also possible to analyse whether a pre-defined action (e.g. purchasing a product on our website) has been carried out after clicking on the link. You can see further information on data analysis via the CleverReach newsletter at: https://www.cleverreach.com/de-de/newsletter-tool/newsletter-reporting/.  

If you do not wish your data to be analysed by CleverReach you have the right to object to receiving the newsletter. Every newsletter message contains a link to enable you to unsubscribe.   

The data that you provide us with in relation to the newsletter will be saved until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be subsequently deleted from our servers and the CleverReach servers. Data that we save for other purposes shall remain unaffected.   You can find out more about the CleverReach data protection clauses at: https://www.cleverreach.com/de/datenschutz/.
