Pivacy policy

We are very pleased about your interest in our company. Data protection has a particularly high priority for the management of the DIDEK eK. The use of DIDEK eK's internet pages is basically possible without any indication of personal data. However, if a concerned person wishes to make use of special services of our company via our internet site, the processing of personal data may become necessary. If it is necessary to process personal data and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the person concerned.

The processing of personal data, for example the name, address, e-mail address or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the basic data protection regulation and in compliance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to DIDEK eK. By means of this privacy policy, our company wishes to inform the public about the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process.

Furthermore, this data protection declaration will inform affected persons about their rights. DIDEK eK, as the data controller, has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the fullest possible protection of the personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions may have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every person concerned is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, such as by telephone.

3. Cookies

The DIDEK eK web pages use cookies. Cookies are text files which are placed and stored on a computer system via an internet browser.

Numerous internet pages and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identification of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters, which Internet pages and servers use to identify the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the Internet pages and servers visited to distinguish the individual browser of the person concerned from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A particular Internet browser can be recognized and identified by means of the unique cookie ID.

By using cookies, DIDEK eK can provide more user-friendly services to the users of this website, which would not be possible without the setting of cookies.

By means of a cookie the information and offers on our website can be optimised in the interest of the user. Cookies enable us, as already mentioned, to recognise the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for visitors to use our website. For example, the visitor to a website that uses cookies does not have to enter his or her access data each time he or she visits the website, because this is done by the website and the cookie stored on the user's computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in the online shop. The online shop uses a cookie to remember the articles that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart.

The person concerned can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all current internet browsers. If the person concerned deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, it is possible that not all functions of our website can be used to their full extent.

4. Collection of general data and information

The DIDEK eK website collects a range of general data and information every time a data subject or automated system accesses the website. This general data and information is stored in the log files of the server. The following can be recorded: (1) the types and versions of browsers used, (2) the type of browser used by the accessing system, (3) the type and version of the browser used by the accessing system, (4) the type and version of the browser used by the accessing operating system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrer), (4) the sub-websites, which are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet Protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information which serve to prevent danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using this general data and information, DIDEK eK will not draw any conclusions about the person concerned. This information is rather required to (1) deliver the contents of our website correctly, (2) optimise the contents of our website as well as the advertising for it, (3) ensure the permanent functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website and (4) to enable law enforcement authorities to take action in the event of a cyber attack by providing necessary information to law enforcement. This anonymously collected data and information is therefore statistically evaluated by DIDEK eK on the one hand and also with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company, in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data processed by us. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a person concerned.

5. Possibility of contact via the Internet site

Due to legal regulations, the DIDEK eK website contains information that enables a quick electronic contact with our company and enable direct communication with us, which is also a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address).

  • h)    Automated case-by-case decisions including profiling

    Every person affected by the processing of personal data has to comply with the requirements of the European Directives and Regulation, not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing operations, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning it or significantly affects it in a similar way, unless the decision is (1) necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) required by Union or national law. Member States to which the controller is subject, and that such legislation contains adequate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms as well as the legitimate interests of the data subject, or (3) with the explicit consent of the data subject.

    If the data subject wishes to exercise rights relating to automated decisions, he or she may at any time contact a member of the staff of the controller.

  • i)      Right to withdraw consent for data protection

    Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European Directive and Regulation Giver, to revoke his or her consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

    If the data subject wishes to exercise his or her right to withdraw consent, he or she may at any time contact an employee of the controller.

8. Legal basis of data processing

Art. 6 I lit. a DS-GVO serves our company as a legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations carried out for a delivery of goods or the provision of another service or consideration are necessary, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b DS-GVO. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of enquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which makes it necessary to process personal data, for example to fulfil tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c DS-GVO. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our company was injured and his or her name, age, health insurance details or other vital information had to be disclosed to a doctor, hospital or other third party. The processing would then be based on Art. 6 I lit. d DS-GVO. Finally, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f DS-GVO. Processing operations which are not covered by any of the above legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or of a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47 sentence 2 DS-GVO).

9. Legitimate interests in data processing pursued by the controller or a third party

If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f DS-GVO, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and our shareholders.

10. Duration for which personal data is stored

The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the respective legal retention period. After expiry of this period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, provided that it is no longer required for the fulfilment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

11.legal or contractual regulations for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of Non-provision

We inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary for a contract to be concluded that a data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the person concerned is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with him/her. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the person concerned could not be concluded. Before the person concerned makes personal data available, he or she must contact one of our employees. Our employee will inform the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is required by law, contract or for the contract is required, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what the consequences would be if the personal data were not provided.

12. Existence of automated decision making

As a responsible company, we avoid automatic decision making or profiling.

This data protection declaration was created by the data protection declaration generator of the Externer Datenschutzbeauftragter Bayreuth in cooperation with the lawyer for IT and data protection law Christian Solmecke.
