This statement describes how and for what purpose your data is collected and used, and what choices you have in connection with personal data.

The responsible body for the collection, processing, and use of your personal data within the meaning of the GDPR is:

IWP Factory GmbH

Should you wish to object to the collection, processing, or use of your data by IWP Factory GmbH in accordance with these data protection provisions, either as a whole or for individual measures, you may address your objection to the above-mentioned responsible office. You are free to save and print out this data protection declaration at any time.

We collect information about you when you use this website. We automatically collect information about your usage behaviour and your interaction with us and register data about your computer or mobile device. We collect, store and use data about each access to our online content (so-called server log files). The access data includes the name and URL of the file accessed, the date and time of access, the volume of data transferred, the notification of successful access (HTTP response code), the browser type and version, the operating system, the referrer URL (i.e. the previously visited page), the IP address, and the requesting provider.

Without assigning this log data to you personally or otherwise profiling it, we use it for statistical evaluations for the purpose of operating, securing, and optimising our online content, but also to anonymously record the number of visitors to our website (traffic), as well as the extent and type of use of our website and services, and furthermore for accounting purposes in order to measure the number of clicks received from cooperation partners. This information allows us to provide personalised and location-based content and to analyse traffic, troubleshoot issues, and improve our services. We reserve the right to check the log data retrospectively if there is a justified suspicion of unlawful use based on concrete indications.

We store IP addresses in the log files for a limited period of time if this is necessary for security purposes. We delete IP addresses when they are no longer required for security purposes. We also store IP addresses if we have a concrete suspicion of a criminal offence in connection with the use of our website.

If you contact us via email (e.g. by using the contact form or sending an email to a listed email address), we will store your details for the purpose of processing the enquiry and for the event that follow-up questions arise. We only store and use further personal data if you have given your consent or if this is legally permissible without special consent.

The legal basis for data processing in accordance with the above paragraphs is Art 6 (1) (f) GDPR. In particular, our interests in data processing are to ensure the operation and security of the website, to study the way visitors use the website, and to facilitate the use of the website.

Unless specifically stated, we only store personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes pursued.

This website uses so-called web fonts provided by Google for the uniform display of fonts. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly.

For this purpose, the browser you use needs to connect to Google’s servers. This provides Google with the information that our website has been accessed via your IP address. Google Web Fonts are used in the interest of a uniform and appealing presentation of our online content. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Should your browser not support web fonts, a standard font from your computer will be used.

Further information on Google Web Fonts can be found at: https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how you use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. In the event that IP anonymisation 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. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. 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 all of the features on 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) by Google as well as the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available under the following link (http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de).

For more information on terms of use and data protection, please visit http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or http://www.google.com/intl/de/analytics/privacyoverview.html. We would like to point out that Google Analytics has been extended by the code “gat._anonymizeIp();” on this website in order to ensure anonymised collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking).

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: Deactivate Google Analytics

We also use Google Analytics to analyse data from AdWords and the Double-Click-Cookie for statistical purposes. If you do not wish us to do so, you can deactivate this via the Ads Preferences Manager (http://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/?hl=de).

We include external links to websites of social networks on our website: YouTube, Xing, LinkedIn, and Twitter, in order to make our company, products, and services better known through these channels. The underlying promotional purpose is to be regarded as a legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR.

These external links are activated by the user proactively clicking on the correspondingly marked icons and logos on our websites. The user then leaves the IWP factory website and calls up the website of the respective social media provider in the browser. The data forwarded or collected when accessing the external social media pages are the IP address of the page of origin as well as the date and time of the respective external URL access.

The responsibility for the data protection-compliant operation of these external websites is borne by their respective social media providers.

For further information on data protection and the use of social media services, please refer to the data protection declarations of the respective social media operators:

• YouTube: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de
• Xing: https://privacy.xing.com/de/datenschutzerklaerung
• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy?trk=homepage-basic_footer-privacy-policy

Below you will find an overview of your rights.

You have the right to obtain confirmation from us at any time as to whether personal data relating to you is being processed. If this is the case, you have the right to obtain from us, free of charge, information about the personal data stored about you, together with a copy of this data. Furthermore, you have the right to the following information:

1. the purposes of the processing;
2. the categories of personal data that is processed;
3. the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data has been or will be disclosed, in particular in the case of recipients in third countries or international organisations;

8. the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, pursuant to Article 22(1) and (4) GDPR and, at least in these cases, meaningful information about the logic involved as well as the scope and the intended effects of such processing for you.

If personal data is transferred to a third country or to an international organisation, you have the right to be informed about the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Article 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer.

You have the right to demand that we rectify any inaccurate personal data relating to you without delay. Taking into account the purposes of the collection, you have the right to demand the completion of incomplete personal data – also by means of a supplementary declaration.

You have the right to demand that we erase personal data relating to you without undue delay and we are obliged to erase personal data without undue delay if one of the following circumstances applies:

1. The personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
2. You withdraw your consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Article 6 (1) (a) or Article 9 (2) (a) GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
3. You object to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Article 21 (2) GDPR.
4. The personal data has been processed unlawfully.
5. The erasure of the personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which we are subject.
6. The personal data has been collected in relation to information society services offered in accordance with Article 8 (1) GDPR.

If we have made the personal data public and we are obliged to erase it pursuant to Article 17 GDPR, we shall take reasonable measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the cost of implementation, to inform data controllers who process the personal data that you have demanded that they erase all links to or copies or replications of that personal data.

You have the right to demand that we restrict processing if one of the following conditions is given:

1. You dispute the accuracy of the personal data for a period of time that allows us to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
2. The processing is unlawful, and you have refused to allow the erasure of the personal data and instead request the restriction of the use of the personal data;
3. We no longer need the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you require the data for the assertion, exercise, or defence of legal claims; or
4. You have objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21 (1) GDPR, for as long as it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate reasons of our company outweigh yours.

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and you have the right to transfer this data to another responsible party without hindrance from us, provided that

1. the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Article 9 (2) (a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR; and
2. the processing is carried out with the aid of automated procedures.

When exercising your right to data portability in accordance with paragraph 1, you have the right to seek to have the personal data transferred directly from us to another responsible party, insofar as this is technically feasible.

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. We shall no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising, or defending legal claims.

If personal data is processed by us for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing.

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89 (1) GDPR, unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.

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.

You have the right to revoke consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your place of residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you is unlawful.

We make every effort to ensure the security of your data within the framework of the applicable data protection laws and technical possibilities.

Your personal data will be transmitted encrypted. We use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) coding system, but we point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

To protect your data, we maintain technical and organisational security measures, which we constantly adapt to the state of the art.

We also do not guarantee that our service will be available at specific times; disruptions, interruptions or failures cannot be ruled out. The servers we use are carefully backed up on a regular basis.

Automated decision-making based on the personal data collected does not take place.

In principle, we only use your personal data within our company.

If and to the extent that we involve third parties in the performance of contracts, they will only receive the personal data to the extent that the transfer is necessary for the respective service.

In the event that we outsource certain parts of data processing (“commissioned processing”), we contractually oblige commissioned processors to use personal data only in accordance with the requirements of data protection laws and to ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject.

A data transfer to bodies or persons outside the EU beyond the cases mentioned in this statement in point 3 does not take place and is not envisaged.

We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time within the scope of the legal provisions of the GDPR.

Our website contains links to third-party websites to which this privacy policy does not apply. IWP Factory GmbH is not responsible for the data protection of third-party websites to which reference is made by means of a link or which are accessed as a result of such a link.
