2. GENERAL NOTES AND MANDATORY INFORMATION
DATA PROTECTION
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and according to the legal data protection regulations as well as this data protection explanation.
If you use this website, various personal data will be collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect and how we use it. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. communication by e-mail) can be subject to security gaps. A complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.
NOTE TO THE RESPONSIBLE OFFICE
The responsible body for data processing on this website is:
Ingenieurbüro Herrmann GmbH
Matthias Herrmann
Brüsseler Str. 8
07747 Jena, Germany
Phone: +49 3641 79795-0
E-mail: datenschutz@ib-herrmann.com
The responsible body is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, e-mail addresses, etc.).
REVOCATION OF YOUR CONSENT TO DATA PROCESSING
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. For this purpose, an informal e-mail notification to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
RIGHT OF APPEAL TO THE COMPETENT SUPERVISORY AUTHORITY
In the event of breaches of data protection law, the data subject shall have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The responsible supervisory authority for data protection issues is the data protection officer of the federal state in which our company is based. A list of data protection officers and their contact details can be found at the following link: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html.
RIGHT TO DATA PORTABILITY
You have the right to have data which we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible person, this will only be done as far as it is technically feasible.
SSL OR TLS ENCRYPTION
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or requests that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
INFORMATION, BLOCKING, DELETION
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint for this and other questions on the subject of personal data.
3. DATA ACQUISITION ON OUR WEBSITE
COOKIES
This website does not set analytics or marketing cookies. Matomo is explicitly operated with tracking cookies disabled. Your acknowledgement of the privacy notice is stored locally in your browser solely so that the notice does not appear again on every page view. You can reopen this local setting via “Privacy settings” in the footer.
CONTACT FORM
If you send us enquiries via the contact form, your details from the enquiry form including the contact data you provided there will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. These data will not be passed on without your consent.
The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore carried out exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke this consent at any time. For this purpose, an informal e-mail notification to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data entered by you in the contact form will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.
4. WEB ANALYTICS WITH MATOMO
SCOPE AND PURPOSE OF PROCESSING
This website uses Matomo for the statistical analysis of website usage and to improve our services. Matomo is integrated through the instance analyse.jenanet.com, which is operated by JENANET GmbH. The analysis is carried out exclusively for this website under Matomo Site ID 152.
COOKIELESS AND ANONYMISED USE
Matomo is used on this website without tracking cookies. For this purpose, the disableCookies function is enabled. The IP address is shortened before analysis so that it cannot be directly attributed to an individual. In particular, the pages accessed, the time of access, the previously visited page, technical information about the browser, operating system and device, and the anonymised IP address are recorded. The data is not combined with other data sets or disclosed for advertising purposes.
LEGAL BASIS
The processing is based on our legitimate interest in privacy-friendly statistical reach measurement and the technical and content-related optimisation of our website pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. As Matomo does not set tracking cookies and does not store information on the device for analytics purposes, consent to analytics cookies is not required. The privacy notice displayed on the first visit transparently informs users about this processing and can be reopened via “Privacy settings” in the footer.
RIGHT TO OBJECT
Under Art. 21 GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation. You can submit your objection using the contact details stated above.
