The following informs you about how personal data is collected when you use our website www.juwel-aquarium.de.

JUWEL Aquarium AG & Co. KG

Karl-Göx-Strasse 1

27356 Rotenburg (Wümme)


 

The data protection officer of the responsible party is:

You can contact our Data protection officer via privacy@juwel-aquarium.de or by writing to the "The Data protection officer" at the above address.

 

2 Contact

Whenever you contact us by email or via a contact form, we will store the data you submit (your email address and, where applicable, your name and telephone number) in order to answer your questions and process your requests. The legal basis for this is Article 6, paragraph 1 s.1 lit. f GDPR. If we use our contact form to ask for information that is not required for us to be able to contact you, we will always label this information as optional. This information helps us answer your enquiry and improve the way your request is processed. This information is provided expressly on a voluntary basis and with your consent, in accordance with Article 6 paragraph 1 s. 1 lit. a GDPR. If this information includes  contact method (e.g., an email address or telephone number), you also agree that we may contact you via this  contact method in order to respond to your request. You can of course revoke this consent at any time with future effect.

 

Your data, which we received during the approach, will be deleted once it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected, once your request has been fully processed, and no further communication with you is necessary or desired by you.

 

As the Controller, our company has implemented various technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data processed through this website is protected as fully as possible. Nevertheless, internet-based data transmission may always have certain security vulnerabilities. 100% protection cannot be guaranteed; in any case, sending unencrypted emails is never secure. We therefore ask that you use either encrypted contact methods (e.g., our contact form) or the regular mail instead of an unencrypted method.

 

3 Your rights

We will be happy to provide you with information as to any processing of your personal data. Should this be the case, you have a right to information about this personal data and to the information listed in detail in Article 15 GDPR. In addition, you have the right to rectification (Article 16 GDPR), the right to restriction of processing (Article 18 GDPR), the right to erasure (Article 17 GDPR) and the right to data portability (Article 20 GDPR) subject to the respective legal requirements.

 

You have the right to object to processing subject to the legal requirements (Article 21 GDPR).

 

To exercise your rights, please contact privacy@juwel-aquarium.de by email or write to JUWEL Aquarium AG & Co. KG,

Karl-Göx-Strasse 1, 27356 Rotenburg (Wümme). Exercising your rights is free of charge.

 

Without prejudice to these rights and to the possibility of seeking any other administrative or judicial remedy, you may at any time exercise your right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in the Member State of your residence, your place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes data protection legislation (Article 77 GDPR).

 

The supervisory authority responsible for us is The State Commissioner for Data Protection Lower Saxony

 

4 Legal bases of our data processing

The processing of personal data may be based on different legal bases. If we need your data to fulfil a contract with you or to respond to an enquiries from you regarding a contract, the legal basis for this data processing is Article 6 paragraph 1 s. 1 lit. b GDPR. If we obtain your consent for a specific data processing operation, the legal basis for this is Article 6 paragraph 1. s.1 lit. a GDPR. We process some data based on our legitimate interest, whereby we always strike a balance between those of your interests which are worthy of protection and our legitimate interests. The legal basis for this is Article 6, paragraph p.1 lit. f GDPR. Insofar as the processing is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which we are subject, the legal basis for this is Article 6 paragraph 1 s. 1 lit. c GDPR.

 

In the following, we explain how we process personal data via our website www.juwel-aquarium.de .

 

5 DATA PROCESSING WHEN VISITING THE WEBSITE

 

5.1 Description and scope of data processing

Every time you visit our website, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the computer making the request.

The following data is collected:

-       Information about the browser type and the version used.

-       The user’s operating system

-       The HTTP response code

-       The number of bytes transferred

-       The user's IP address

-       Date and time of access

-       The websites from which the user's system accesses our website

-       The websites requested by the user's system via our website

 

5.2 Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR.

 

5.3 Purpose of data processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the website to be delivered to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.

Log files are stored to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use these data to optimise the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. We do not evaluate this data for marketing purposes.

These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR.

 

5.4 Duration of storage

The data is deleted when it is no longer required to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. With respect to the collection of data for the provision of the website, this takes place when the respective session has ended. With respect to the storage of data in log files, deletion is carried out within seven days. Data may be stored beyond this period. In this case, the user's IP address will be deleted or de-familiarised, so that the accessing client can no longer be identified.

 

5.5 Objection and erasure options

The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of the data in log files is necessary for the operation of the website.

 

6 Data security

We have taken extensive technical and operational precautions to protect your data from accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorised persons. Our safety procedures are regularly checked and adapted to conform with the latest technological developments.

 

7 Data transfer

As a rule, your personal data will not be transferred to third parties unless we are legally obliged to do so; or where the data transfer is necessary for the performance of the contractual relationship; or where you have previously expressly consented to the transfer of your data.

 

External service providers and partner companies, such as online payment providers or a shipping company commissioned with delivery, only receive your data insofar as this is necessary to process your order. In such cases, however, the scope of the data transmitted is restricted to the minimum scope necessary. Insofar as our service providers process your personal data on our behalf, we ensure within the framework of order processing pursuant to Article 28 GDPR that they comply with the provisions of data protection laws in the same manner. Please also note the data protection policies of the respective providers. The service provider in question is responsible for the content of third-party services, and we check the services for compliance with the legal requirements, where  reasonable to do so.

 

We attach importance to processing your data within the EU/EEA. However, there may be occasions when we use service providers who process data outside the EU/EEA. In such cases, we ensure that an adequate level of data protection comparable to the standards within the EU is established with the recipient prior to the transfer of your personal data. This may be achieved, for example, via standard EU contracts or binding corporate rules or special agreements to whose terms the company may be subject.

 

8 Job applications

You can apply to our company online, e.g., via email. Please note that unencrypted emails are not sent with access protection.

 

Your details will be used to process your application and decide on whether to enter an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 (1) in conjunction with Section 26 (8.2)  of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). Furthermore, your personal data may be processed insofar as this is necessary to defend legal claims arising from the application process against us. The legal basis for this is Article 6, paragraph 1 s.1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest in the processing also lies in the stated purposes.

 

Should we enter into an employment relationship with you, we may further process the personal data we have already received from you for the purposes of the employment relationship in accordance with Section 26 (1) BDSG insofar as this is necessary for the performance or termination of the employment relationship or for the exercise or fulfilment of employee representation rights and obligations resulting from a legal act or a collective wage agreement, a works agreement or a service agreement (collective agreement).

 

Your application data will not be processed beyond the described use.

 

Your personal data will be deleted after completion of the application process after 6 (six) months at the latest, unless there are other legitimate interests on our part that prevent deletion, or you have given us permission to store this data for a longer period. Other legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a duty to provide evidence in proceedings under the German General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

13 Website analysis

For the purpose of analysing and optimising our websites, we use various services which are described below.

The responsible body for users in the EU/EEA and Switzerland is Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland. DoubleClick uses cookies to display user-relevant ads , to improve campaign performance reports. or to prevent users from seeing the same ads more than once. Google uses a cookie ID to record which ads are shown in which browser. This prevents the same ad from being shown more than once. In addition, DoubleClick can use cookie IDs to record what are known as ad conversions. This is the case, for example, when a user sees a DoubleClick ad and later visits the advertiser's website with the same browser and buys something there.

 

When you access a page that uses DoubleClick where the DoubleClick script has been allowed, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection to the Google server. As a website operator, we have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google using this tool. We inform you based on the information available: using DoubleClick, Google is informed that you have called up the corresponding part of our website or clicked on an advertisement via our site. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can log the visit under your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, it is possible that the provider may obtain and store your IP address.

 

Insofar as data is processed outside the EEA, where there is no level of data protection corresponding to the European standard, we have concluded EU standard contractual clauses with the service provider to establish a secure level of data protection.

The IP address and other data are not sent to Google.

 

Google Web Fonts are used in the interest of presenting our online offering in a uniform and appealing manner offering given efficiency and cost-saving considerations. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR. If your browser does not support Web Fonts, a default font will be used by your computer.

18.1 General information

Social media has become an integral part of the internet and modern communication.

We have no influence on the processing and further use of this data, as Facebook alone determines how processing is done. We are not currently able to verify the extent to which, the destination and the length of time for which the data is stored, the extent to which the data is linked [to other data] and evaluated and to whom the data is transferred. We also have no insight or influence regarding retention periods, i.e., whether and to what extent any retention periods are followed.

Information from Facebook itself about what information is collected can be found in Facebook's Privacy Policy, which can be viewed here: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/

18.2 Scope of data collection and storage

You do not have to have a Facebook account to view the content on our Facebook Fan Page. However, data is collected, stored and used by Facebook every time you visit our site.

A cookie is a tiny text file that enables a website to identify a browser. Cookies are stored on the computer when a website is accessed and are retrieved and read the next time the same web server is accessed.  As a user, you can choose cookies you wish to allow, block or delete via the browser settings. Instructions for popular browsers can be found here: Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, Google Chrome mobile, Microsoft Edge, Safari, Safari mobile. Alternatively, you can install “ad blockers” such as Ghostery.

User interactions (postings, likes, etc.)	User communication	Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR

No automated individual decision-making including profiling in accordance with Article 22 GDPR takes place.

We also store the data if and insofar as we are subject to statutory retention obligations. Such obligations may arise, for example, from the German Commercial Code (HGB) or the German Fiscal Code (AO).

If you have given us consent for a particular processing operation, the data associated with the granting of consent will be stored subject to the statute of limitations until revocation or at the latest for the duration of the processing operation and after the end of the same.

 

18.3 Facebook Insights

For statistical evaluation purposes, we use the Facebook Insights feature. This allows us to receive anonymised data on the users of our Facebook Fan Page. It therefore does not allow us to identify you as a person. Please refer to Facebook's Cookie Policy for more information.

 

18.4 Disclosure and use of personal data

If you interact with Facebook, Facebook will have access to your data as you would expect. Facebook is located in an unsafe third country where the level of data protection is lower. Data transmission is based on what are known as standard data protection clauses. For more information, see HERE.

 

18.5 Legal bases

If processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the this interest, Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing. We see our legitimate interest for data processing in the presentation of our company and our products as well as our services for your information and in the provision of up-to-date communication options for and with you.
