PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT

Personal data is all information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as person concerned); a natural person is deemed to be identifiable if they can directly or indirectly be identified in particular by means of allocation to identification such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identification or one or more specific features that are an expression of the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity of this natural person.
You can in principle view our websites without entering any personal data. As a rule, we only store the website from which you accessed our website, the name of your internet service provider, which websites you visited within our website, and the date and duration of your visit. In order to do this, small files (known as cookies) are stored in your computer’s memory for the duration of your visit. These are what are known as temporary session cookies. The session cookies are automatically deleted as soon as you close your browser window. We use the session cookies to create what is known as a session ID for internal statistical purposes.
The data obtained are fully anonymized, so there is no chance of you being identified as a person. Your IP address and a time stamp are stored for security reasons and only used for internal purposes. The IP address is a machine-related identification that enables a conclusion to be drawn about the computer used to access the internet or the internet gateway used at the time of the online inquiry. The term time stamp means a value in a defined format that allocates a time to an event (such as the sending or receiving of a message or the modification of data or the like). The purpose of a time stamp is to make clear to people or computers when events occurred.
We obtain your personal data when you enter these data in a registration or contact form on our website, thereby registering for value-added services/information and multimedia services.

If you have granted consent for advertising when you registered, we will also store your registration data (date and time of declaration of consent, IP address, your browser and operating system details, device).
Once you are registering for the value-added services/information and multimedia services, we may ask you further questions that you can answer (but do not have to answer). These questions ask about general preferences and interests (e.g. industry). If you answer these questions, we will also store these answers so we and our sponsors can send you advertisements appropriate to your interests. The data are, however, only stored and passed on to the sponsors if you have granted consent for advertising.

HOW WE USE PERSONAL DATA

We primarily use and collect your personal data to run the value-added services/information and multimedia services.
However, some of your data are also collected for advertising purposes. If you participate in the value-added services/information and multimedia services (which are funded by advertising) via the online form and grant consent for advertising at the same time, the subject matter of the value-added services/information and multimedia contract concluded also includes the transfer of data for promotional purposes. In this case, your contractual consideration is that you grant consent for advertising which enables us and our sponsors to provide advertising in the areas mentioned (post, email, and telephone advertising). For this reason, the data are stored in accordance with Article 6 1 b) GDPR and used by us for advertising purposes. The data are then also passed on to the sponsors to provide advertising in the areas mentioned. If you terminate the value-added services/information and multimedia contract, we will then refrain from continuing to use these data for advertising purposes.
If you conclude a value-added services/information and multimedia contract without obligation on your part to grant consent for advertising, the above-mentioned use of the data for advertising purposes will not apply.
We also process your data on the basis of consent for advertising if you grant us this consent when registering for the providing value-added services/information and multimedia services. In this case, we use the data ourselves for advertising purposes and forward it to our sponsors within the scope of the consent you granted.
If you answer questions after/during registering for the value-added services/information and multimedia services which do not refer to a specific product, we will store your answers with your personal data to ensure targeted advertising. In the case of answers which do refer to a specific product, we will forward your answer to the relevant company.
Finally, we process your data to meet our fiscal and commercial accounting and record-keeping obligations.

We may also disclose information about you if we determine that such disclosure should be made for reasons of national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public importance.
We primarily send data to external service providers as we do not provide some services ourselves or cannot sensibly provide them ourselves.

Internal recipients and general external service providers Internally, all departments which need the data for the above-mentioned purposes have access to your data:
