Data Protection Officer

We have appointed a data protection officer.
Christoph Boser 
E-mail: datenschutz@ziegler.eu


Recipients of personal data
In the course of our business activities, we cooperate with various external bodies. In some cases, this also requires the transfer of personal data to these external bodies. We only disclose personal data to external bodies if this is necessary in the context of the performance of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. disclosure of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO or if another legal basis permits the disclosure of data. When using processors, we only disclose personal data of our customers on the basis of a valid contract on commissioned processing. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing contract is concluded.
Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.


Right to object to the collection of data in specific cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
IF THE DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6 ABS. 1 LIT. E OR F DSGVO, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS DATA PROTECTION DECLARATION. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR 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 (OBJECTION UNDER ARTICLE 21(1) OF THE DATA PROTECTION ACT).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED 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 CONNECTED WITH SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21 PARA. 2 DSGVO).


Right of appeal to the competent supervisory authority
In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work or the place of the alleged breach. The right of appeal is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.


Right to data portability
You have the right to have data that 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 controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.


Information, correction and deletion
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of the data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose and for further questions on the subject of personal data.


Right to restrict processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. To do this, you can contact us at any time. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
•    If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to check this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
•    If the processing of your personal data happened/is happening unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of erasure.
•    If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or enforce legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
•    If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) DSGVO, a balancing of your interests and ours must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data may - apart from being stored - only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence 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 European Union or a Member State.


SSL or TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise 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.


4. DATA COLLECTION ON THIS WEBSITE

Cookies
Our internet pages use so-called "cookies". Cookies are small data packets and do not cause any damage to your end device. They are stored either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your end device. Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them yourself or until they are automatically deleted by your web browser.
Cookies can originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services of third-party companies within websites (e.g. cookies for processing payment services).
Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g. the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies can be used to evaluate user behaviour or for advertising purposes.
Cookies that are necessary to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide certain functions that you have requested (e.g. for the shopping basket function) or to optimise the website (e.g. cookies to measure the web audience) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. Insofar as consent to the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG); consent can be revoked at any time.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If you deactivate cookies, the functionality of this website may be limited.
You can find out which cookies and services are used on this website in this privacy policy.


Consent with ConsentManager
Our website uses the ConsentManager technology to obtain your consent to the storage of certain cookies on your terminal device or to the use of certain technologies and to document this in accordance with data protection law. The provider of this technology is Jaohawi AB, Håltegelvägen 1b, 72348 Västerås, Sweden, website: www.consentmanager.de (hereinafter "ConsentManager").
When you enter our website, a connection is established to the servers of ConsentManager in order to obtain your consent and other declarations regarding the use of cookies. ConsentManager then stores a cookie in your browser in order to be able to allocate the consents given to you or their revocation. The data collected in this way is stored until you request us to delete it, delete the ConsentManager provider cookie yourself or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Mandatory legal storage obligations remain unaffected.
ConsentManager is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO.


Contact form
If you send us enquiries via the contact form, your details from the enquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO) if this has been requested; consent can be revoked at any time.
The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have completed processing your enquiry). Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.


Request by e-mail, telephone or fax
If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your enquiry including all resulting personal data (name, enquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We will not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO) if this has been requested; consent can be revoked at any time.
The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have completed processing your request). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular statutory retention periods - remain unaffected.

However, the Google Tag Manager collects your IP address, which may also be transmitted to Google's parent company in the United States.
The use of the Google Tag Manager is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in a quick and uncomplicated integration and management of various tools on its website. If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) as defined by the TTDSG.

This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyse the behaviour of website visitors. In doing so, the website operator receives various usage data, such as page views, length of stay, operating systems used and the origin of the user. This data is summarised in a user ID and assigned to the respective end device of the website visitor.
Furthermore, Google Analytics allows us to record your mouse and scroll movements and clicks, among other things. Furthermore, Google Analytics uses various modelling approaches to complement the data sets collected and uses machine learning technologies in the data analysis.
Google Analytics uses technologies that enable the recognition of the user for the purpose of analysing user behaviour (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about the use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
The use of this service is based on your consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG. The consent can be revoked at any time.

This website embeds videos from the website YouTube. The operator of the website is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
When you visit one of our websites on which YouTube is integrated, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited.
Furthermore, YouTube may store various cookies on your terminal device or use comparable technologies for recognition (e.g. device fingerprinting). In this way, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve the user experience and prevent fraud attempts.
If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behaviour directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG.

For more information on Font Awesome, please see the Font Awesome privacy policy at: fontawesome.com/privacy.
OpenStreetMap
We use the map service of OpenStreetMap (OSM).
We integrate OpenStreetMap on our own (tile) server. When calling up the map material, there is therefore no connection to the servers of third parties.
The use of OpenStreetMap is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers and an easy location of the places indicated by us on the website. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. Insofar as a corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG.

7. ECOMMERCE AND PAYMENT PROVIDERS

Processing customer and contract data
We collect, process and use personal customer and contract data for the purpose of establishing, structuring the content of and amending our contractual relationships. We collect, process and use personal data about the use of this website (usage data) only insofar as this is necessary to enable the user to use the service or to bill the user. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO.
The collected customer data will be deleted after completion of the order or termination of the business relationship and expiry of any existing legal retention periods. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.


8. OWN SERVICES

Handling of applicant data
We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by e-mail, post or via online application form). In the following, we inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected as part of the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing and use of your data will be carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other legal provisions and that your data will be treated in strict confidence.
Scope and purpose of data collection
When you send us an application, we process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during interviews, etc.) to the extent that this is necessary to decide whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO (general contract initiation) and - if you have given your consent - Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. The consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to persons who are involved in processing your application.
If the application is successful, the data submitted by you will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 BDSG and Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship.


Retention period of the data
If we are unable to make you a job offer, if you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have provided on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). The data will then be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. This storage serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required after the 6-month period has expired (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), the data will only be deleted when the purpose for further storage no longer applies.
Longer storage may also take place if you have given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO) or if legal storage obligations prevent deletion.

Additional information:

J.H. Ziegler uses products and services for analysis and marketing purposes, which are provided by Visable GmbH (www.visable.com) in cooperation with them. To that end, pixel-code technology is used to collect, process and store data in order to create at least pseudonymised, but where possible and sensible, completely anonymous user profiles. Data collected, which may initially still include personal data, is transmitted to Visable or is collected directly by Visable and is used to create the aforementioned user profiles there. Visitors to this website are not personally identified and no other personal data is merged with the user profiles. If IP addresses are identified as personal, they are immediately deleted.

3.4 Legitimate interest of us or third parties (Art. 6 para. 1 f DSGVO)
We may also use your personal data on the basis of a balance of interests to protect the legitimate interest of us or third parties. This is done for the following purposes:
•    Testing and optimisation of procedures for needs analysis and direct customer approach.
•    for advertising or market research, if you have not objected to the use of your data.

In addition, we are subject to various storage and documentation obligations, which result from the German Commercial Code (HGB) and the German Fiscal Code (AO), among others. The retention and documentation periods specified there are up to ten years beyond the end of the business relationship or the pre-contractual legal relationship.
Ultimately, the storage period is also assessed according to the statutory limitation periods, which, for example, according to §§ 195 et seq. of the German Civil Code (BGB), are usually three years, but in certain cases can be up to thirty years.


8. to what extent is there automated decision-making in individual cases?

We do not use any purely automated decision-making processes pursuant to Article 22 of the GDPR. Should we use these procedures in individual cases, we will inform you of this separately, insofar as this is required by law.


9. your data protection rights

You have the right to information under Article 15 of the GDPR, the right to rectification under Article 16 of the GDPR, the right to erasure under Article 17 of the GDPR, the right to restriction of processing under Article 18 of the GDPR and the right to data portability under Article 20 of the GDPR. In addition, there is a right of appeal to a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 DSGVO). In principle, the right to object to the processing of personal data by us exists under Article 21 of the GDPR. However, this right of objection only applies in the case of very special circumstances of your personal situation, whereby rights of our company may possibly conflict with your right of objection. If you wish to exercise one of these rights, please contact our data protection officer (datenschutz@ziegler.eu).


10. scope of your obligations to provide us with your data

You only need to provide the data that is required for the establishment and implementation of a business relationship or for a pre-contractual relationship with us or which we are legally obliged to collect. Without this data, we will generally not be able to conclude or execute the contract. This may also refer to data required later in the course of the business relationship. If we request additional data from you, you will be informed separately of the voluntary nature of the information.


11. information about your right to object Art 21 DSGVO

3. processing purposes and legal basis

Your personal data will be processed in accordance with the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO), the Federal Data Protection Act BDSG and other relevant data protection regulations. The processing and use of individual data depends on the agreed or requested service.
3.1 Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 letter a DSGVO)
If you have given us consent to process personal data, the respective consent is the legal basis for the processing mentioned there. You can revoke consent at any time with effect for the future.
3.2 Fulfilment of contractual obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 letter b DSGVO)
We process your personal data to execute our contracts and agreements with you. Furthermore, your personal data is processed for the implementation of measures and activities within the framework of pre-contractual relationships.
3.3 Fulfilment of legal obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 c DSGVO)
We process your personal data if this is necessary for the fulfilment of legal obligations (e.g. commercial, tax laws). Furthermore, we process your data if necessary to comply with tax law control and reporting obligations as well as the archiving of data for data protection and data security purposes as well as audits by tax and other authorities. In addition, the disclosure of personal data may become necessary in the context of official/court measures for the purpose of collecting evidence, criminal prosecution or the enforcement of civil law claims.
3.4 Legitimate interest of us or third parties (Art. 6 para. 1 f DSGVO)
We may also use your personal data on the basis of a balance of interests to protect the legitimate interest of us or third parties. This is done for the following purposes:
•    Review and optimise procedures for needs analysis and direct supplier approach.
•    for advertising or market research, if you have not objected to the use of your data.
•    for the limited storage of your data if deletion is not possible or only possible with disproportionate effort due to the special type of storage.
•    for the further development of services and products as well as existing systems and processes.
•    for statistical evaluations or for market analyses.
•    for certifications of private law or official matters.
•    for the assertion of legal claims and defence in legal disputes which are not directly attributable to the contractual relationship.
•    for securing and exercising our house rights through appropriate measures (e.g. video surveillance).
•    for data collection in accordance with our online form "Supplier self-disclosure".


4. categories of personal data that we process

The following data are processed:
•    Personal data (name, profession/industry and comparable data)
•    Contact details (address, email address, telephone number and similar data)
•    Supplier history
We continue to process personal data from public sources (e.g. internet, media, press). We process personal data lawfully obtained from third parties (e.g. address publishers, credit agencies) if necessary for the provision of our service.


5. who receives your data?

We pass on your personal data within our company to those areas that need this data to fulfil contractual and legal obligations or to implement our legitimate interests.
In addition, the following bodies may receive your data:
•    Processors used by us (Art. 28 DSGVO), service providers for supporting activities and other responsible parties within the meaning of the DSGVO, in particular in the areas of IT services, logistics, courier services, printing services, external data centres, support/maintenance of IT applications, archiving, document processing, accounting and controlling, data destruction, purchasing/procurement, customer management, letter shops, marketing, telephony, website management, tax consultancy, auditing service, credit institutions.
•    Public bodies and institutions in the event of a legal or official obligation under which we are obliged to provide information, report or pass on data, or if the passing on of data is in the public interest.
•    Authorities and institutions on the basis of our legitimate interest or the legitimate interest of the third party (e.g. to authorities, credit agencies, debt collection, lawyers, courts, appraisers and control bodies).
•    other bodies for which you have given us your consent to transfer data.


6. transfer of your data to a third country or to an international organisation

No data processing takes place outside the EU or the EEA.


7. how long do we store your data?

As far as necessary, we process your personal data for the duration of our business relationship, this also includes the initiation and execution of a contract.
 In addition, we are subject to various storage and documentation obligations, which result from the German Commercial Code (HGB) and the German Fiscal Code (AO), among others. The retention and documentation periods specified there are up to ten years beyond the end of the business relationship or the pre-contractual legal relationship.
 Ultimately, the storage period is also assessed according to the statutory limitation periods, which, for example, according to §§ 195 ff. of the German Civil Code (BGB), can generally be three years, but in certain cases also up to thirty years.


8. to what extent is there automated decision-making in individual cases?

We do not use any purely automated decision-making processes pursuant to Article 22 of the GDPR. Should we use these procedures in individual cases, we will inform you of this separately, insofar as this is required by law.


9. your data protection rights

You have the right to information under Article 15 of the GDPR, the right to rectification under Article 16 of the GDPR, the right to erasure under Article 17 of the GDPR, the right to restriction of processing under Article 18 of the GDPR and the right to data portability under Article 20 of the GDPR. In addition, there is a right of appeal to a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 DSGVO). In principle, the right to object to the processing of personal data by us exists under Article 21 of the GDPR. However, this right of objection only applies in the case of very special circumstances of your personal situation, whereby rights of our company may possibly conflict with your right of objection. If you wish to exercise one of these rights, please contact our data protection officer (datenschutz@ziegler.eu).


10. scope of your obligations to provide us with your data

You only need to provide the data that is required for the establishment and implementation of a business relationship or for a pre-contractual relationship with us or which we are legally obliged to collect. Without this data, we will generally not be able to conclude or execute the contract. This may also refer to data required later in the course of the business relationship. If we request additional data from you, you will be informed separately of the voluntary nature of the information.


11. information about your right to object Art 21 DSGVO

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your data based on Art. 6 (1) f DSGVO (data processing on the basis of a balance of interests) or Art. 6 (1) e DSGVO (data processing in the public interest) if there are grounds for doing so that arise from your particular situation.
