The extent and type of collection and the use of your personal data differs according to whether you visit our website simply to retrieve information or contact us directly.

In this context we also state the stipulated criteria for the duration of storage as well as the applicable legal basis for data processing.

We use cookies for our websites. Cookies are small text files that are sent to your browser by our web server when you visit our websites and are stored on your computer for later retrieval. They basically serve to help the Internet service work more efficiently and effectively.

Cookies can basically be divided into two categories:

Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close the browser. These include, in particular, the session cookies. Such cookies store a so-called session ID, by means of which different enquiries via your browser can be allocated to the joint session. In this way your computer can be recognized again when you return to the website. The session cookies are deleted when you log yourself out or close the browser.

Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a pre-set duration which can vary according to the cookie. You can delete the cookies at any time in the security settings of your browser.

You can configure your browser setting as you wish and, for example, decline to accept third party cookies or all cookies. However, we would like to point out that if you do so, you may not be able to use all functions of this website.

For the design of our websites and the provision of additional functions, we integrate the following external services in our own interest.

The services can be deactivated via our so-called Consent Manager or by using special plugins for your browser, or to be more precise: this prevents the necessary connection to the corresponding servers. Please note, however, that the use of such tools may result in a loss of everyday comfort, as many things will no longer function as you would normally expect.

On our website, in the service portal section, we integrate content from Google Maps in order to present the locations of our company as well as the locations of our machines in operation at your site in a simplified way. When Google Maps is activated, a connection is established between your browser and the Google Maps server and your IP address is transmitted. If you are logged in to Google with an existing user account while visiting our websites, Google may also be able to associate your visit to our websites with your user behavior. In addition, further cookies may be sent to your browser by Google. We have no influence on this procedure and do not receive any information from Google about the transmitted content.

Analysis of your user behavior by Google:

Google stores your data as user profiles and uses these for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or designing of its website in line with requirements. Such an analysis is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) for the provision of tailored advertising.

You have a right to object to the formation of these user profiles. In order to exercise this right, however, you must approach Google directly.

Service is provided by:

Service provider is Google Inc. 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, Representative in the EU is Google Dublin, Google Ireland Ltd, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Legal basis of data processing:

The processing of your data is based on your consent, pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.

For exceptional cases in which personal data (your IP address) is transferred to the USA, Google relies on the European Standard Contractual Clauses:

On our website, in the career section, we integrate content from StepStone in order to present our currently advertised jobs to you in a simplified way. When StepStone is activated, a connection is established between your browser and the StepStone server and your IP address is transmitted. In addition, further cookies may be sent to your browser by StepStone. We have no influence on this procedure and do not receive any information from StepStone about the transmitted content.

Analysis of your user behavior by StepStone:

StepStone stores your data as user profiles and uses them to optimize search and recommendation functions.

You have a right to object to the formation of these user profiles. In order to exercise this right, however, you must approach StepStone directly.

Legal basis of data processing:

The processing of your data is based on your consent, pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.

Our websites feature links to various social media with the corresponding logos. These are not social media plug-ins, but merely a link to our offers within these media. If you click on one of these links, your IP address will always be transmitted to the operators of the various platforms. If you use one of these services and are also logged in with your specific account, information about your surfing behavior may also be collected by the operators of social media. The transmission of your IP address to the operators of the websites accessed is technically necessary and applies to all websites.

Processing of your personal data in countries outside the European Union and the European Economic Area does not take place, with the exception of the processing described under “integrated services”.

You have the following rights vis-à-vis us concerning personal data relating to your person:

• right to information,
• right to rectification or erasure,
• right to restriction of processing,
• right to data portability.

In addition, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority about processing of your personal data by us. The competent supervisory authority relevant in our case is:

Die Landesbeauftragte für den Datenschutz Niedersachsen
(State Commissioner for Data Protection in Lower Saxony)
Frau Barbara Thiel
Prinzenstraße 5
D- 30159 Hannover

https://lfd.niedersachsen.de/startseite/

If you have granted consent to the processing of your data, you are entitled to revoke this at any time. After informing us of such a revocation, this influences permissibility of the processing of your personal data.

Insofar as we base the processing of your personal data on the balance of interests (the legal basis is then Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR), you may object to the processing. This is the case, in particular, if the processing is not necessary for the fulfilment of a contract with you. This is described by us in each case in the description of the individual data processing and functions available on our website in an earlier section of this privacy policy. If you submit such an objection, we would request you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data in the way we have been doing. In the case of an objection indicating reasons, we check the circumstances of the case and will either stop or adjust the data processing or explain to you our compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we continue to process the data.

You can, of course, object to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of advertising and data analysis at any time, e.g. also if you receive advertising from us in the form of a newsletter, customer magazine or information material by mail as part of a business relationship.

If we use your data within the scope of functions of our websites for direct advertising and a corresponding data analysis, we inform you about this data processing in an earlier section of this privacy policy, including a possibility to exercise your right to object by technical means.

We also use technical and organizational safety measures to protect personal data that we receive or collect, in particular against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or against attack by unauthorized persons. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.

Transmission of your personal data is encrypted using SSL technology (https) to prevent access by unauthorized third parties.

Our e-mail systems support encrypted communication using SSL technology (TLS 1.2 incl. PFS). It is therefore fundamentally possible to encrypt the transmission of your e-mail. Please note, however, that encryption also depends on the configuration of your e-mail program and therefore we cannot guarantee complete data security for the transport route.

For information requiring a high level of confidentiality, we recommend that you send it by post.
