Infor­ma­ti­on about the Pri­va­cy Police

We attach gre­at importance to data pro­tec­tion and take all neces­sa­ry mea­su­res to opti­mal­ly pro­tect our cus­to­mer, sup­pli­er and part­ner data. To pro­vi­de you with a high-qua­li­ty web­site expe­ri­ence, we use appro­pria­te tools that help us crea­te even bet­ter con­tent for you. Data pro­tec­tion and trans­pa­ren­cy of data sto­rage is very important to us! Learn more about how we do this in our pri­va­cy policy.

Our pri­va­cy policy

We wel­co­me you to our web­site and thank you for your inte­rest. The pro­tec­tion of your per­so­nal data is important to us. The­r­e­fo­re, we con­duct our acti­vi­ties in com­pli­ance with appli­ca­ble laws on the pro­tec­tion of per­so­nal data and data secu­ri­ty. We would like to inform you in the fol­lo­wing which data of your visit will be used for which purposes.

1. what is per­so­nal data?

The term per­so­nal data is defi­ned in the Fede­ral Data Pro­tec­tion Act and in the EU Data Pro­tec­tion Regu­la­ti­on. Accor­din­gly, this is indi­vi­du­al infor­ma­ti­on about per­so­nal or fac­tu­al cir­cum­s­tances of a spe­ci­fic or iden­ti­fia­ble natu­ral per­son. This includes, for exam­p­le, your civil name, your address, your tele­pho­ne num­ber or your date of birth.

2 Scope of anony­mous data coll­ec­tion and data processing

Unless other­wi­se sta­ted in the fol­lo­wing sec­tions, no per­so­nal data is coll­ec­ted, pro­ces­sed or used when using our web­sites. Howe­ver, we do learn cer­tain tech­ni­cal infor­ma­ti­on through the use of ana­ly­sis and track­ing tools based on the data trans­mit­ted by your brow­ser (for exam­p­le, brow­ser type/version, ope­ra­ting sys­tem used, web pages visi­ted on our site incl. length of stay, pre­vious­ly visi­ted web page). We eva­lua­te this infor­ma­ti­on for sta­tis­ti­cal pur­po­ses only.

3. legal basis for the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data

Inso­far as we obtain the con­sent of the data sub­ject for pro­ces­sing ope­ra­ti­ons invol­ving per­so­nal data, Artic­le 6 (1) (a) of the EU Gene­ral Data Pro­tec­tion Regu­la­ti­on (GDPR) ser­ves as the legal basis for the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data. 

When pro­ces­sing per­so­nal data that is neces­sa­ry for the per­for­mance of a con­tract to which the data sub­ject is a par­ty, Art. 6 (1) (b) DS-GVO ser­ves as the legal basis. This also appli­es to pro­ces­sing ope­ra­ti­ons that are neces­sa­ry for the per­for­mance of pre-con­trac­tu­al measures. 

Inso­far as pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data is neces­sa­ry for the ful­fill­ment of a legal obli­ga­ti­on to which our com­pa­ny is sub­ject, Art. 6 (1) lit. c DS-GVO ser­ves as the legal basis. 

In the event that vital inte­rests of the data sub­ject or ano­ther natu­ral per­son make pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data neces­sa­ry, Art. 6 (1) (d) DS-GVO ser­ves as the legal basis. 

If the pro­ces­sing is neces­sa­ry to pro­tect a legi­ti­ma­te inte­rest of our com­pa­ny or a third par­ty and the inte­rests, fun­da­men­tal rights and free­doms of the data sub­ject do not over­ri­de the for­mer inte­rest, Art. 6 (1) lit. f DS-GVO ser­ves as the legal basis for the processing.

 

4. use of cookies

The web­site of the apro­nic GmbH uses coo­kies. Coo­kies are data that are stored by the Inter­net brow­ser on the user’s com­pu­ter sys­tem. The coo­kies can be trans­mit­ted to a page when it is cal­led up and thus enable the user to be iden­ti­fied. Coo­kies help to sim­pli­fy the use of Inter­net pages for users. In the­se pur­po­ses also lies our legi­ti­ma­te inte­rest in the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data accor­ding to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DS-GVO. We also use coo­kies on our web­site that enable an ana­ly­sis of the user’s sur­fing behavior.

(1) Search terms entered

(2) Fre­quen­cy of page views

(3) Use of web­site functions

It is pos­si­ble to object to the set­ting of coo­kies at any time by chan­ging the set­ting in the Inter­net brow­ser. Coo­kies that have been set can be dele­ted. It should be noted that if coo­kies are deac­ti­va­ted, it may not be pos­si­ble to use all the func­tions of our web­site in full. The user data coll­ec­ted in this way is pseud­ony­mi­zed by tech­ni­cal pre­cau­ti­ons. The­r­e­fo­re, an assign­ment of the data to the cal­ling user is no lon­ger pos­si­ble. The data is not stored tog­e­ther with other per­so­nal data of the users. When cal­ling up our web­site, users are infor­med by an infor­ma­ti­on ban­ner about the use of coo­kies for ana­ly­sis pur­po­ses and refer­red to this data pro­tec­tion decla­ra­ti­on. In this con­text, the­re is also an indi­ca­ti­on of how the sto­rage of coo­kies can be pre­ven­ted in the brow­ser set­tings. The legal basis for the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data using tech­ni­cal­ly neces­sa­ry coo­kies is Art. 6 (1) lit. f DS-GVO. The legal basis for the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data using coo­kies for ana­ly­sis pur­po­ses is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DS-GVO if the user has given his con­sent in this regard.

5. crea­ti­on of log files

Each time the web­site is acces­sed, apro­nic GmbH coll­ects data and infor­ma­ti­on by an auto­ma­ted sys­tem. The­se are stored in the log files of the ser­ver. The data is also stored in the log files of our sys­tem. A sto­rage of this data tog­e­ther with other per­so­nal data of the user does not take place. The fol­lo­wing data can be coll­ec­ted here:

(1) Infor­ma­ti­on about the brow­ser type and ver­si­on used.

(2) The ope­ra­ting sys­tem of the user

(3) The Inter­net ser­vice pro­vi­der of the user

(4) The IP address of the user

(5) Date and time of access

(6) Web­sites from which the user’s sys­tem acces­ses our web­site (refer­rer)

(7) Web­sites that are acces­sed by the user’s sys­tem via our web­siteden

 

6. Rou­ti­ne dele­ti­on and blo­cking of per­so­nal data

The con­trol­ler pro­ces­ses and stores per­so­nal data of the data sub­ject only for as long as neces­sa­ry to achie­ve the pur­po­se of sto­rage. In addi­ti­on, sto­rage may take place inso­far as this has been pro­vi­ded for by the Euro­pean or natio­nal legis­la­tor in Uni­on regu­la­ti­ons, laws or other pro­vi­si­ons to which the con­trol­ler is sub­ject. As soon as the sto­rage pur­po­se cea­ses to app­ly or a sto­rage peri­od pre­scri­bed by the afo­re­men­tio­ned regu­la­ti­ons expi­res, the per­so­nal data is rou­ti­ne­ly blo­cked or deleted.

7. Rights of the data subject

If per­so­nal data is pro­ces­sed by you, you are a data sub­ject within the mea­ning of the DS-GVO and you are entit­led to the fol­lo­wing rights vis-à-vis the controller:

 

7.1 Right to information

You may request con­fir­ma­ti­on from the con­trol­ler as to whe­ther per­so­nal data con­cer­ning you is being pro­ces­sed by us. If such pro­ces­sing is taking place, you may request infor­ma­ti­on from the con­trol­ler about the following:

(a) the pur­po­ses for which the per­so­nal data are processed;

b) the cate­go­ries of per­so­nal data which are processed;

c) the reci­pi­ents or cate­go­ries of reci­pi­ents to whom your per­so­nal data have been or will be disclosed;

d) the plan­ned dura­ti­on of the sto­rage of your per­so­nal data or, if con­cre­te infor­ma­ti­on on this is not pos­si­ble, cri­te­ria for deter­mi­ning the sto­rage period;

e) the exis­tence of a right to rec­ti­fi­ca­ti­on or era­su­re of your per­so­nal data, a right to rest­ric­tion of pro­ces­sing by the con­trol­ler or a right to object to such processing;

f) the exis­tence of a right of appeal to a super­vi­so­ry authority;

g) any available infor­ma­ti­on on the ori­gin of the data, if the per­so­nal data are not coll­ec­ted from the data subject;

(h) the exis­tence of auto­ma­ted decis­i­on-making, inclu­ding pro­fil­ing, pur­su­ant to Artic­le 22(1) and (4) of the GDPR and, at least in tho­se cases, meaningful infor­ma­ti­on about the logic invol­ved and the scope and inten­ded effects of such pro­ces­sing for the data sub­ject. You have the right to request infor­ma­ti­on about whe­ther your per­so­nal data is trans­fer­red to a third coun­try or to an inter­na­tio­nal orga­niza­ti­on. In this con­text, you may request to be infor­med about the appro­pria­te safe­guards pur­su­ant to Artic­le 46 of the GDPR in con­nec­tion with the transfer.

7.2 Right to rectification

You have a right to rec­ti­fi­ca­ti­on and/or com­ple­ti­on vis-à-vis the con­trol­ler if the pro­ces­sed per­so­nal data con­cer­ning you are inac­cu­ra­te or incom­ple­te. The con­trol­ler shall car­ry out the rec­ti­fi­ca­ti­on wit­hout undue delay.

 

7.3 Right to rest­ric­tion of processing

You may request the rest­ric­tion of the pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data under the fol­lo­wing conditions:

(a) if you con­test the accu­ra­cy of your per­so­nal data for a peri­od enab­ling the con­trol­ler to veri­fy the accu­ra­cy of the per­so­nal data;

b) the pro­ces­sing is unlawful and you object to the era­su­re of the per­so­nal data and request the rest­ric­tion of the use of the per­so­nal data instead;

© the con­trol­ler no lon­ger needs the per­so­nal data for the pur­po­ses of pro­ces­sing, but you need them for the estab­lish­ment, exer­cise or defen­se of legal claims; or

d) if you have objec­ted to the pro­ces­sing pur­su­ant to Artic­le 21 (1) DS-GVO and it has not yet been deter­mi­ned whe­ther the legi­ti­ma­te grounds of the con­trol­ler out­weigh your grounds.

If the pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data has been rest­ric­ted, such data may — apart from being stored — only be pro­ces­sed with your con­sent or for the asser­ti­on, exer­cise or defen­se of legal claims or for the pro­tec­tion of the rights of ano­ther natu­ral or legal per­son or for reasons of important public inte­rest of the Uni­on or a Mem­ber Sta­te. If the rest­ric­tion of pro­ces­sing has been rest­ric­ted in accordance with the abo­ve con­di­ti­ons, you will be infor­med by the con­trol­ler befo­re the rest­ric­tion is lifted.

7.4 Right to erasure

7.4.1 You may request the Con­trol­ler to era­se your per­so­nal data wit­hout undue delay, and the Con­trol­ler is obli­ged to era­se this data wit­hout undue delay, if one of the fol­lo­wing reasons applies:

(a) the per­so­nal data con­cer­ning you are no lon­ger neces­sa­ry for the pur­po­ses for which they were coll­ec­ted or other­wi­se processed.

b) You revo­ke your con­sent on which the pro­ces­sing was based pur­su­ant to Art. 6 (1) a or Art. 9 (2) a DS-GVO and the­re is no other legal basis for the processing.

c) You object to the pro­ces­sing pur­su­ant to Art. 21 (1) DS-GVO and the­re are no over­ri­ding legi­ti­ma­te grounds for the pro­ces­sing, or you object to the pro­ces­sing pur­su­ant to Art. 21 (2) DS-GVO.

d) The per­so­nal data con­cer­ning you have been pro­ces­sed unlawfully.

e) The era­su­re of the per­so­nal data con­cer­ning you is neces­sa­ry for com­pli­ance with a legal obli­ga­ti­on under Uni­on or Mem­ber Sta­te law to which the con­trol­ler is subject.

f) The per­so­nal data con­cer­ning you has been coll­ec­ted in rela­ti­on to infor­ma­ti­on socie­ty ser­vices offe­red pur­su­ant to Artic­le 8(1) DS-GVO.

7.4.2 If the con­trol­ler has made your per­so­nal data public and is obli­ged to era­se it pur­su­ant to Art. 17(1) DS-GVO, it shall take reasonable mea­su­res, inclu­ding tech­ni­cal mea­su­res, having regard to the available tech­no­lo­gy and the cost of imple­men­ta­ti­on, to inform data con­trol­lers which pro­cess the per­so­nal data that you, as the data sub­ject, have reques­ted that they era­se all links to or copies or repli­ca­ti­ons of such per­so­nal data.

7.4.3 The right to era­su­re does not exist inso­far as the pro­ces­sing is necessary

a) for the exer­cise of the right to free­dom of expres­si­on and information;

b) for com­pli­ance with a legal obli­ga­ti­on which requi­res pro­ces­sing under Uni­on or Mem­ber Sta­te law to which the con­trol­ler is sub­ject, or for the per­for­mance of a task car­ri­ed out in the public inte­rest or in the exer­cise of offi­ci­al aut­ho­ri­ty ves­ted in the controller;

c) for reasons of public inte­rest in the area of public health pur­su­ant to Artic­le 9(2)(h) and (i) and Artic­le 9(3) of the GDPR; d. for archi­ving pur­po­ses in the public inte­rest, sci­en­ti­fic or his­to­ri­cal rese­arch pur­po­ses or for sta­tis­ti­cal pur­po­ses pur­su­ant to Artic­le 89(1) of the GDPR, inso­far as the right refer­red to in para­graph 1 is likely to ren­der impos­si­ble or serious­ly pre­ju­di­ce the achie­ve­ment of the pur­po­ses of such pro­ces­sing; or
e) for the asser­ti­on, exer­cise or defen­se of legal claims.

7.5 Recht auf Unterrichtung

Haben Sie das Recht auf Berich­ti­gung, Löschung oder Ein­schrän­kung der Ver­ar­bei­tung gegen­über dem Ver­ant­wort­li­chen gel­tend gemacht, ist die­ser ver­pflich­tet, allen Emp­fän­gern, denen die Sie betref­fen­den per­so­nen­be­zo­ge­nen Daten offen­ge­legt wur­den, die­se Berich­ti­gung oder Löschung der Daten oder Ein­schrän­kung der Ver­ar­bei­tung mit­zu­tei­len, es sei denn, dies erweist sich als unmög­lich oder ist mit einem unver­hält­nis­mä­ßi­gen Auf­wand ver­bun­den. Ihnen steht gegen­über dem Ver­ant­wort­li­chen das Recht zu, über die­se Emp­fän­ger unter­rich­tet zu werden.

7.6 Right to data portability 

You have the right to recei­ve your per­so­nal data that you have pro­vi­ded to the con­trol­ler in a struc­tu­red, com­mon and machi­ne-rea­da­ble for­mat. In addi­ti­on, you have the right to trans­fer this data to ano­ther con­trol­ler wit­hout hin­drance from the con­trol­ler to whom the per­so­nal data was pro­vi­ded, pro­vi­ded that

a) the pro­ces­sing is based on con­sent pur­su­ant to Art. 6 (1) a DS-GVO or Art. 9 (2) a DS-GVO or on a con­tract pur­su­ant to Art. 6 (1) b DS-GVO, and

b) the pro­ces­sing is car­ri­ed out with the aid of auto­ma­ted pro­ce­du­res

In exer­cis­ing this right, you also have the right to have your per­so­nal data trans­fer­red direct­ly from one con­trol­ler to ano­ther con­trol­ler, inso­far as this is tech­ni­cal­ly fea­si­ble. Free­doms and rights of other per­sons must not be affec­ted by this. The right to data por­ta­bi­li­ty does not app­ly to pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data neces­sa­ry for the per­for­mance of a task car­ri­ed out in the public inte­rest or in the exer­cise of offi­ci­al aut­ho­ri­ty ves­ted in the controller.

7.7 Right of objection

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds rela­ting to your par­ti­cu­lar situa­ti­on, to the pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data car­ri­ed out on the basis of Artic­le 6 (1) (e) or (f) DS-GVO; this also appli­es to pro­fil­ing based on the­se pro­vi­si­ons. The con­trol­ler will no lon­ger pro­cess your per­so­nal data unless it can demons­tra­te com­pel­ling legi­ti­ma­te grounds for the pro­ces­sing which over­ri­de your inte­rests, rights and free­doms, or the pro­ces­sing ser­ves to assert, exer­cise or defend legal claims. If your per­so­nal data is pro­ces­sed for the pur­po­se of direct mar­ke­ting, you have the right to object at any time to pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data for such mar­ke­ting; this also appli­es to pro­fil­ing, inso­far as it is rela­ted to such direct mar­ke­ting. If you object to pro­ces­sing for direct mar­ke­ting pur­po­ses, your per­so­nal data will no lon­ger be pro­ces­sed for the­se pur­po­ses. You have the pos­si­bi­li­ty, in con­nec­tion with the use of infor­ma­ti­on socie­ty ser­vices — not­wi­th­stan­ding Direc­ti­ve 2002/58/EC — to exer­cise your right to object by means of auto­ma­ted pro­ce­du­res using tech­ni­cal specifications.

7.8 Right to revo­ke the decla­ra­ti­on of con­sent under data pro­tec­tion law

You have the right to revo­ke your decla­ra­ti­on of con­sent under data pro­tec­tion law at any time. The revo­ca­ti­on of the con­sent does not affect the lawful­ness of the pro­ces­sing car­ri­ed out on the basis of the con­sent up to the revocation.

 

7.9 Auto­ma­ted decis­i­on in indi­vi­du­al cases inclu­ding profiling.

You have the right not to be sub­ject to a decis­i­on based sole­ly on auto­ma­ted pro­ces­sing — inclu­ding pro­fil­ing — which pro­du­ces legal effects con­cer­ning you or simi­lar­ly signi­fi­cant­ly affects you. This does not app­ly if the decision

(a) neces­sa­ry for the con­clu­si­on or per­for­mance of a con­tract bet­ween you and the controller

is neces­sa­ry,

b) is per­mis­si­ble on the basis of legal pro­vi­si­ons of the Uni­on or the Mem­ber Sta­tes to which the con­trol­ler is sub­ject and the­se legal pro­vi­si­ons con­tain appro­pria­te mea­su­res to pro­tect your rights and free­doms as well as your legi­ti­ma­te inte­rests, or

© is made with your expli­cit con­sent. Howe­ver, the­se decis­i­ons may not be based on spe­cial cate­go­ries of per­so­nal data pur­su­ant to Art. 9(1) DS-GVO, unless Art. 9(2)(a) or (g) appli­es and appro­pria­te mea­su­res have been taken to pro­tect the rights and free­doms as well as your legi­ti­ma­te inte­rests. With regard to the cases men­tio­ned in a. and c., the con­trol­ler shall take reasonable steps to safe­guard the rights and free­doms as well as your legi­ti­ma­te inte­rests, which include, at a mini­mum, the right to obtain the inter­ven­ti­on of a per­son on the part of the con­trol­ler, to express his or her point of view and to con­test the decision.

 

7.10 Right to com­plain to a super­vi­so­ry authority

Wit­hout pre­ju­di­ce to any other admi­nis­tra­ti­ve or judi­cial reme­dy, you have the right to lodge a com­plaint with a super­vi­so­ry aut­ho­ri­ty, in par­ti­cu­lar in the Mem­ber Sta­te of your resi­dence, place of work or the place of the alle­ged inf­rin­ge­ment, if you con­sider that the pro­ces­sing of your per­so­nal data inf­rin­ges the GDPR. The super­vi­so­ry aut­ho­ri­ty to which the com­plaint has been lodged shall inform the com­plainant of the sta­tus and out­co­me of the com­plaint, inclu­ding the pos­si­bi­li­ty of a judi­cial reme­dy under Artic­le 78 of the GDPR.

 

8. dis­clo­sure of data to third parties

8.1 Goog­le Ana­ly­tics and Con­ver­si­on Tracking

Sin­ce the Ham­burg Com­mis­sio­ner for Data Pro­tec­tion and Free­dom of Infor­ma­ti­on rea­ched an agree­ment with Goog­le based on the reso­lu­ti­on of the Düs­sel­dor­fer Kreis on the data-pro­tec­tion-com­pli­ant design of ana­ly­sis pro­ce­du­res for mea­su­ring the reach of Inter­net offe­rings, it has been pos­si­ble to use Goog­le Ana­ly­tics in a data-pro­tec­tion-com­pli­ant and com­plaint-free man­ner under cer­tain con­di­ti­ons. We adhe­re to the­se con­di­ti­ons. In par­ti­cu­lar, we point out that on this web­site Goog­le Ana­ly­tics has been exten­ded by the code “gat._anonymizeIp();” to ensu­re anony­mi­zed coll­ec­tion of IP addres­ses (so-cal­led IP mas­king). Plea­se also note the fol­lo­wing infor­ma­ti­on on the use of Goog­le Analytics: 

This web­site uses Goog­le Ana­ly­tics, a web ana­ly­tics ser­vice pro­vi­ded by Goog­le LLC. (“Goog­le”). Goog­le Ana­ly­tics uses “coo­kies”, which are text files pla­ced on your com­pu­ter, to help the web­site ana­ly­ze how users use the site. The infor­ma­ti­on gene­ra­ted by the coo­kie about your use of the web­site will be trans­mit­ted to and stored by Goog­le on ser­vers in the United Sta­tes. In the event that IP anony­miza­ti­on is acti­va­ted on this web­site, howe­ver, your IP address will be trun­ca­ted before­hand by Goog­le within mem­ber sta­tes of the Euro­pean Uni­on or in other con­trac­ting sta­tes to the Agree­ment on the Euro­pean Eco­no­mic Area. Only in excep­tio­nal cases will the full IP address be trans­mit­ted to a Goog­le ser­ver in the USA and shor­ten­ed the­re. On behalf of the ope­ra­tor of this web­site, Goog­le will use this infor­ma­ti­on for the pur­po­se of eva­lua­ting your use of the web­site, com­pi­ling reports on web­site acti­vi­ty and pro­vi­ding other ser­vices rela­ting to web­site acti­vi­ty and inter­net usa­ge to the web­site ope­ra­tor. In addi­ti­on, we use Goog­le Con­ver­si­on Track­ing in con­nec­tion with Goog­le Ana­ly­tics. This allows us to record the beha­vi­or of our web­site visi­tors. For exam­p­le, we are shown how many PDFs were down­loa­ded from our web­site or how often the cont­act form was fil­led out. Like­wi­se, we are shown how many clicks on adver­ti­se­ments from exter­nal sources (AdWords, Lin­ke­dIn, Xing, Face­book, Pin­te­rest, Insta­gram, etc.) have led to our web­site. The IP address trans­mit­ted by your brow­ser as part of Goog­le Ana­ly­tics is not mer­ged with other data from Goog­le. You may refu­se the use of coo­kies by sel­ec­ting the appro­pria­te set­tings on your brow­ser, howe­ver plea­se note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full func­tion­a­li­ty of this web­site. You can also pre­vent the coll­ec­tion of data gene­ra­ted by the coo­kie and rela­ted to your use of the web­site (inclu­ding your IP address) to Goog­le and the pro­ces­sing of this data by Goog­le by down­loa­ding and instal­ling the brow­ser plug­in available at the fol­lo­wing link (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de). You can pre­vent the coll­ec­tion by Goog­le Ana­ly­tics by cli­cking on the fol­lo­wing link. An opt-out coo­kie will be set, which will pre­vent the future coll­ec­tion of your data when visi­ting this web­site: Disable Goog­le Analytics.

Fur­ther infor­ma­ti­on on terms of use and data pro­tec­tion can be found at https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/.

We also use Goog­le Ana­ly­tics to ana­ly­ze data from AdWords and the Dou­ble Click coo­kie for sta­tis­ti­cal pur­po­ses. If you do not wish to do so, you can deac­ti­va­te this via the Ads Pre­fe­ren­ces Mana­ger https://www.google.com/settings/ads/anonymous?hl=de.

 

8.2 Goog­le AdWords and Con­ver­si­on Tracking

In order to draw atten­ti­on to our cur­rent pro­jects and deve­lo­p­ments, plan­ned acti­vi­ties and ser­vices, we place Goog­le AdWords ads and use Goog­le con­ver­si­on track­ing as part of this. The­se ads are dis­play­ed after search queries on web­sites of the Goog­le adver­ti­sing net­work. We have the opti­on to com­bi­ne our ads with cer­tain search terms. In addi­ti­on, we use AdWords remar­ke­ting lists for search ads. This allows us to cus­to­mi­ze search ad cam­paigns for users who have visi­ted our web­site befo­re. Through the ser­vices, we have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to com­bi­ne our ads with cer­tain search terms or to dis­play ads for pre­vious visi­tors in which, for exam­p­le, ser­vices are adver­ti­sed that the visi­tors have view­ed on our web­site. For inte­rest-based offers, an ana­ly­sis of online user beha­vi­or is neces­sa­ry. Goog­le uses coo­kies to per­form this ana­ly­sis. When cli­cking on an adver­ti­se­ment or visi­ting our web­site, a coo­kie is set on the user’s com­pu­ter by Goog­le. This infor­ma­ti­on is used to tar­get the visi­tor in a sub­se­quent search query. Fur­ther infor­ma­ti­on on the coo­kie tech­no­lo­gy used can also be found in Google’s notes on web­site sta­tis­tics and in the pri­va­cy poli­cy. With the help of this tech­no­lo­gy, Goog­le and we as a cus­to­mer recei­ve infor­ma­ti­on about the fact that a user has cli­cked on an adver­ti­se­ment and has been redi­rec­ted to our web pages in order to cont­act us via the cont­act form. Like­wi­se, Goog­le and we as a cus­to­mer recei­ve infor­ma­ti­on with the help of Goog­le for­war­ding num­bers that a user has cli­cked on a tele­pho­ne num­ber from us on the Inter­net and cont­ac­ted us by tele­pho­ne. The infor­ma­ti­on obtai­ned in this way is used exclu­si­ve­ly for a sta­tis­ti­cal eva­lua­ti­on to opti­mi­ze adver­ti­se­ments. We do not recei­ve any infor­ma­ti­on with which visi­tors can be per­so­nal­ly iden­ti­fied. The sta­tis­tics pro­vi­ded to us by Goog­le include the total num­ber of users who cli­cked on one of our ads and, if appli­ca­ble, whe­ther this user was redi­rec­ted to a page of our web­site mark­ed with a con­ver­si­on tag. Based on the­se sta­tis­tics, we can track which search terms were cli­cked on our ad par­ti­cu­lar­ly often and which ads lead to the user cont­ac­ting us via the cont­act form or by tele­pho­ne. With respect to tele­pho­ne cont­act by pro­s­pects or cus­to­mers, the sta­tis­tics pro­vi­ded by Goog­le include the start time, end time, sta­tus (missed or recei­ved), dura­ti­on (seconds), area code of the cal­ler, tele­pho­ne cos­ts, and call type. If you do not want this, you can pre­vent the sto­rage of the coo­kie requi­red for the­se tech­no­lo­gies, for exam­p­le, through the set­tings of your brow­ser. In this case, your visit will not be included in the user sta­tis­tics. You also have the opti­on of sel­ec­ting the types of Goog­le ads or dis­ab­ling inte­rest-based ads on Goog­le via the ad set­ting. Alter­na­tively, you can disable the use of coo­kies by third par­ties by cal­ling the deac­ti­va­ti­on help of the net­work adver­ti­sing initia­ti­ve. Howe­ver, we and Goog­le still recei­ve sta­tis­ti­cal infor­ma­ti­on about how many users have visi­ted this site and when. If you do not want to be included in the­se sta­tis­tics eit­her, you can pre­vent this by using addi­tio­nal pro­grams for your brow­ser (for exam­p­le, the Ghos­tery add-on).

8.3 Inte­gra­ti­on of Goog­le Tag Manager

Goog­le Tag Mana­ger is used on this web­site. The Goog­le Tag Mana­ger is a solu­ti­on from Goog­le LLC that allows com­pa­nies to mana­ge web­site tags via an inter­face. The Goog­le Tag Mana­ger is a coo­kie-less domain that does not coll­ect any per­so­nal data. The Goog­le Tag Mana­ger pro­vi­des for the trig­ge­ring of other tags, which in turn may coll­ect data. We her­eby point this out sepa­ra­te­ly. The Goog­le Tag Mana­ger does not access this data. If a deac­ti­va­ti­on has been made by the user at domain or coo­kie level, this remains in place for all track­ing tags that are imple­men­ted with Goog­le Tag Mana­ger. On behalf of the ope­ra­tor of this web­site, Goog­le will use this infor­ma­ti­on for the pur­po­se of eva­lua­ting your use of the web­site, com­pi­ling reports on web­site acti­vi­ty and pro­vi­ding other ser­vices rela­ting to web­site acti­vi­ty and inter­net usa­ge to the web­site ope­ra­tor. Goog­le uses pseud­onyms for this pur­po­se. The IP address trans­mit­ted by your brow­ser as part of Goog­le Ana­ly­tics will not be mer­ged with other data from Goog­le. You can find more infor­ma­ti­on about the Goog­le Tag Mana­ger at: https://www.google.com/intl/tagmanager/.

 

8.4 Use of Goog­le reCaptcha

To pro­tect their orders via Inter­net form, apro­nic GmbH uses the ser­vice reCAPTCHA of the com­pa­ny Goog­le LLC (Goog­le). The query is used to distin­gu­ish whe­ther the input is made by a human or abu­si­ve by auto­ma­ted, machi­ne pro­ces­sing. The query includes the sen­ding of the IP address and pos­si­bly other data requi­red by Goog­le for the reCAPTCHA ser­vice to Goog­le. For this pur­po­se, your input is trans­mit­ted to Goog­le and fur­ther used the­re. By using reCaptcha, you agree that the reco­gni­ti­on you pro­vi­de will be used for the digi­tiza­ti­on of old works. Howe­ver, in the event that IP anony­miza­ti­on is acti­va­ted on this web­site, your IP address will be trun­ca­ted before­hand by Goog­le within mem­ber sta­tes of the Euro­pean Uni­on or in other con­trac­ting sta­tes to the Agree­ment on the Euro­pean Eco­no­mic Area. Only in excep­tio­nal cases will the full IP address be trans­mit­ted to a Goog­le ser­ver in the USA and shor­ten­ed the­re. On behalf of the ope­ra­tor of this web­site, Goog­le will use this infor­ma­ti­on to eva­lua­te your use of this ser­vice. The IP address trans­mit­ted by your brow­ser as part of reCaptcha will not be mer­ged with any other data held by Goog­le. The devia­ting data pro­tec­tion pro­vi­si­ons of the Goog­le com­pa­ny app­ly to this data. For more infor­ma­ti­on on Google’s pri­va­cy poli­cy, plea­se visit: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

8.5 Goog­le Fonts

Exter­nal fonts, Goog­le Fonts, are used on the­se web pages. Goog­le Fonts is a ser­vice of Goog­le LLC (“Goog­le”). The inte­gra­ti­on of the­se web fonts takes place through a ser­ver call, usual­ly a Goog­le ser­ver in the USA. This trans­mits to the ser­ver which of our Inter­net pages you have visi­ted. The IP address of the brow­ser of the end device of the visi­tor to the­se Inter­net pages is also stored by Goog­le. You can find more detail­ed infor­ma­ti­on in Google’s data pro­tec­tion infor­ma­ti­on, which you can access here: www.google.com/policies/privacy/

 

8.6 Goog­le Maps

This web­site uses Goog­le Maps API to visual­ly dis­play geo­gra­phi­cal infor­ma­ti­on. When using Goog­le Maps, Goog­le also coll­ects, pro­ces­ses and uses data about the use of the Maps func­tions by visi­tors to the web­sites. You can find more infor­ma­ti­on about data pro­ces­sing by Goog­le in Google’s pri­va­cy poli­cy. The­re you can also chan­ge your set­tings in the Pri­va­cy Cen­ter so that you can mana­ge and pro­tect your data. Here you will find fur­ther ins­truc­tions on how to mana­ge your own data in con­nec­tion with Goog­le pro­ducts: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/3024190

8.7 Use of Face­book plug­ins and other social plugins

Plug­ins of the social net­work Face­book, pro­vi­der Face­book Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Men­lo Park, Cali­for­nia 94025, USA, are inte­gra­ted on our pages. You can reco­gni­ze the Face­book plug­ins by the Face­book logo or the “Like but­ton” (“Like”) on our page. You can find an over­view of the Face­book plug­ins here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/ When you visit our pages, a direct con­nec­tion is estab­lished bet­ween your brow­ser and the Face­book ser­ver via the plug­in. Face­book ther­eby recei­ves the infor­ma­ti­on that you have visi­ted our site with your IP address. If you click the Face­book “Like” but­ton while log­ged into your Face­book account, you can link the con­tent of our pages on your Face­book pro­fi­le. This allows Face­book to asso­cia­te the visit to our pages with your user account. We would like to point out that we, as the pro­vi­der of the pages, have no know­ledge of the con­tent of the trans­mit­ted data or its use by Face­book. For more infor­ma­ti­on, plea­se refer to Facebook’s pri­va­cy poli­cy at http://de-de.facebook.com/policy.php. If you do not want Face­book to be able to asso­cia­te your visit to our pages with your Face­book user account, plea­se log out of your Face­book user account. 

We offer you the pos­si­bi­li­ty of using so-cal­led “social plug­ins” of the com­pa­nies on our website:

“Tweet” but­ton from Twit­ter Inc, 795 Fol­som St, Suite 600, San Fran­cis­co, CA 94107, USA;

“+1″ but­ton by Goog­le LLC., 1600 Amphi­theat­re Park­way, Moun­tain View, CA 94043, USA;

“Recom­men­ded but­ton” by Lin­ke­dIn Cor­po­ra­ti­on, 2029 Stier­lin Court, Moun­tain View, CA 94043, USA;

“Share but­ton” by XING AG, Gän­se­markt 43, 20354 Ham­burg, Germany.

By cli­cking on the gra­phics, you are thus redi­rec­ted to the respec­ti­ve ser­vices of the pro­vi­ders. Only then will your data be sent to the respec­ti­ve ser­vices. Unless you click on the gra­phic, no exch­an­ge takes place bet­ween you and the abo­ve-men­tio­ned social net­works. Infor­ma­ti­on about the coll­ec­tion and use of your data in the social net­works can be found in the respec­ti­ve terms of use of the cor­re­spon­ding providers.

8.8 Face­book Pixel, Cus­tom Audi­en­ces and Face­book Remarketing

On our web­sites, we use the so-cal­led “Face­book Pixel” of the social net­work Face­book, which is ope­ra­ted by Face­book Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Men­lo Park, Cali­for­nia 94025, USA, or if you are a resi­dent of the EU, Face­book Ire­land Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Squa­re, Grand Canal Har­bour, Dub­lin 2, Ire­land, based on our legi­ti­ma­te inte­rests in the ana­ly­sis, opti­miza­ti­on and eco­no­mic ope­ra­ti­on of our online offer and for the­se pur­po­ses. With the help of the “Face­book Pixel”, it is pos­si­ble for Face­book, on the one hand, to deter­mi­ne the visi­tors to our online offer as a tar­get group for the dis­play of adver­ti­se­ments, so-cal­led “Face­book Ads”. Accor­din­gly, we use the “Face­book pixel” to adver­ti­se our offer on Face­book only in a tar­get group-ori­en­ted man­ner. The “Face­book pixel” is only acti­ve if you have con­sen­ted to this through the opt-in in the coo­kie notice.

9. inte­gra­ti­on of other ser­vices and con­tent of third parties

It may hap­pen that third-par­ty con­tent, such as vide­os from You­Tube, maps from Goog­le Maps, RSS feeds or gra­phics from other web­sites are inte­gra­ted within this online offer. This always requi­res that the pro­vi­ders of this con­tent (her­ein­af­ter refer­red to as “third-par­ty pro­vi­ders”) per­cei­ve the IP address of the user. Wit­hout the IP address, they could not send the con­tent to the brow­ser of the respec­ti­ve user. The IP address is thus neces­sa­ry for the dis­play of this con­tent. We endea­vor to use only such con­tent who­se respec­ti­ve pro­vi­ders use the IP address only for the deli­very of the con­tent. Howe­ver, we have no influence if the third-par­ty pro­vi­ders store the IP address, e.g. for sta­tis­ti­cal pur­po­ses. Inso­far as this is known to us, we inform the users about it.

 

10 Dura­ti­on of sto­rage of per­so­nal data

Per­so­nal data is stored for the dura­ti­on of the respec­ti­ve sta­tu­to­ry reten­ti­on peri­od. After expiry of this peri­od, the data is rou­ti­ne­ly dele­ted, unless it is neces­sa­ry for the initia­ti­on or per­for­mance of a contract.

 

11. appli­ca­ti­ons (trai­ning & job offers)

By sub­mit­ting an appli­ca­ti­on to us, appli­cants con­sent to the pro­ces­sing of their data for the pur­po­ses of the appli­ca­ti­on pro­cess in accordance with the type and scope set out in this pri­va­cy poli­cy. Inso­far as spe­cial cate­go­ries of per­so­nal data within the mea­ning of Art. 9 (1) DSGVO are vol­un­t­a­ri­ly com­mu­ni­ca­ted within the scope of the appli­ca­ti­on pro­ce­du­re, their pro­ces­sing is addi­tio­nal­ly car­ri­ed out in accordance with Art. 9 (2) lit. b DSGVO (e.g. health data, such as sever­ely dis­ab­led sta­tus or eth­nic ori­gin). Inso­far as spe­cial cate­go­ries of per­so­nal data within the mea­ning of Art. 9 (1) DSGVO are reques­ted from appli­cants as part of the appli­ca­ti­on pro­cess, their pro­ces­sing is addi­tio­nal­ly car­ri­ed out in accordance with Art. 9 (2) a DSGVO (e.g. health data, if this is neces­sa­ry for the exer­cise of the pro­fes­si­on). If pro­vi­ded, appli­cants can sub­mit their appli­ca­ti­ons to us using an online form on our web­site. The data is trans­mit­ted to us in encrypt­ed form in accordance with the sta­te of the art. Appli­cants can also send us their appli­ca­ti­ons by e‑mail. Plea­se note, howe­ver, that e‑mails are gene­ral­ly not sent in encrypt­ed form and appli­cants must ensu­re that they are encrypt­ed them­sel­ves. We can­not the­r­e­fo­re accept any respon­si­bi­li­ty for the trans­mis­si­on path of the appli­ca­ti­on bet­ween the sen­der and receipt on our ser­ver and the­r­e­fo­re recom­mend rather using an online form or sen­ding by post. This is becau­se ins­tead of app­ly­ing via the online form and e‑mail, appli­cants still have the opti­on of sen­ding us their appli­ca­ti­on by post. In the event of a suc­cessful appli­ca­ti­on, the data pro­vi­ded by the appli­cants may be pro­ces­sed by us for the pur­po­ses of the employ­ment rela­ti­onship. Other­wi­se, if the appli­ca­ti­on for a job offer is not suc­cessful, the appli­cants’ data will be dele­ted. Appli­cants’ data will also be dele­ted if an appli­ca­ti­on is with­drawn, which appli­cants are entit­led to do at any time. Sub­ject to a jus­ti­fied with­dra­wal by the appli­cants, the dele­ti­on will take place after the expiry of a peri­od of six months so that we can ans­wer any fol­low-up ques­ti­ons about the appli­ca­ti­on and satis­fy our obli­ga­ti­ons to pro­vi­de evi­dence under the Equal Tre­at­ment Act. Invoices for any reim­bur­se­ment of tra­vel expen­ses will be archi­ved in accordance with tax law requirements.

12. secu­ri­ty

We have taken exten­si­ve tech­ni­cal and ope­ra­tio­nal pre­cau­ti­ons to pro­tect your data from acci­den­tal or inten­tio­nal mani­pu­la­ti­on, loss, des­truc­tion or access by unaut­ho­ri­zed per­sons. Our secu­ri­ty pro­ce­du­res are regu­lar­ly review­ed and adapt­ed to tech­no­lo­gi­cal pro­gress. In addi­ti­on, data pro­tec­tion is con­ti­nuous­ly gua­ran­teed by us, through con­stant audi­ting and opti­miza­ti­on of the data pro­tec­tion organization.
