2. General information and mandatory information
Data protection
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal information confidentially and in accordance with the legal data protection requirements and with this Privacy Policy.
Different personal information is collected when you use this website. Personal information is data with which you can be identified personally. This Privacy Policy explains which data we collect and what we use this for. It also explains how and to which end this is done.
Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. for email communication) may be subject to security breaches. Complete protection of data against third-party access is therefore not possible.
Information on the responsible body
The responsible body for data processing on this website is:
Schaller Automation GmbH & Co. KG
Industriering 14
66440 Blieskastel
Germany
Phone: +49 6842 5080
Email: info@schaller.de
The responsible body is the natural or legal person who decides on the purposes and means of the processing of personal information (e.g. names, email addresses) alone or together with others.
Withdrawing your consent to data processing
Many data processing processes are only possible with your express consent. You can withdraw a consent after you have given it. This can be done in an informal email to us. The legitimacy of the data processing before the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Right to object to data collection in special cases as well as to direct marketing (art. 21 GDPR).
If data processing is conducted based on art. 6, par. 1 item e or f GDPR, you have the right at any time, for reasons resulting from your special situation, to object to the processing of your personal information; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The legal basis in each case, on which the processing is based, can be found in our Privacy Policy. If you object, we will no longer process your relevant personal information, unless we can prove compelling reasons for the processing which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (objection as per art. 21 par. 1 GDPR).
If your personal information is processed to conduct direct marketing, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal information for the purpose of such marketing at any time; this also applies to profiling in as far as it is connected with such direct marketing. If you object, your personal information will subsequently no longer be used for the purpose of direct marketing (objection as per art. 21 par. 2 GDPR).
Right to complain to the responsible regulatory body
In case of violations of the GDPR, the persons affected have a right to complain to a regulatory body, especially in the member state of their regular abode, their place of work or the place of the alleged violation. The right to complain persists irrespective of other administrative or legal remedies.
Right for data transfer
You have the right to have any data which we process automatically based on your consent or to fulfil a contract handed over to yourself or a third party in a common machine-readable format. If you demand direct transmission of the data to another responsible person, this is only done if it is technically possible.
SSL or TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries which you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. An encrypted connection can be identified by the address bar of your browser changing from “http://” to “https://” and the lock symbol in your browser bar.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Disclosure, blocking, deletion and correction
Within the applicable legal regulations, you have – at any time and free of charge – the right to obtain information about your stored personal information, its origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this information. If you have any questions concerning personal information please contact us at the address provided in the Legal Notice.
Right to limit processing
You have the right to demand the restricted processing of your personal information. If you have questions on this, you can contact us at the address stated in the Legal Notice at any time. The right to limit processing exists in the following cases:
If you dispute the correctness of your personal information stored by us, we usually require time to verify this. You have the right to demand the restricted processing of your personal information for the duration of the verification. If your personal information is/was conducted illegally, you can demand deletion of the data instead of a restriction of data processing. When we no longer require your personal information, but you require it for exercising, defending or asserting legal claims, then you have the right to demand restricted processing of your personal information instead of deletion. If you have submitted an objection as per art. 21 par. 1 GDPR, your interests and our interests have to be considered. You have the right to demand the restricted processing of your personal information while it is not clear which interests prevail.
If you have limited the processing of your personal information, this information – apart from their storage – may only be processed with your consent or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a member state.
Objection to marketing emails
We hereby object to the use of the contact information published in the scope of the mandatory legal notice for sending advertising and information materials which were not expressly requested. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in case of unsolicited sending of marketing information, e.g. through spam emails.
3. Data collection on our website
Cookies
These internet pages use so-called “cookies”. Cookies cause no damage to your computer and do not contain any viruses. Cookies are used to make our services more user-friendly, more effective and more secure. Cookies are small text files which are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.
Most of the cookies used by us are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted after the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognise your browser at your next visit.
You can adjust the settings in your browser to receive information about cookies, allow cookies only in individual cases, exclude cookies for certain cases or generally and you can activate automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. The functionality of this website may be limited if cookies are deactivated.
Cookies which are required for conducting the electronic communication process or for providing certain functions requested by you (e.g. shopping basket function) are stored on the basis of art. 6 par. 1 item f GDPR. The website operator has a justified interest in storing cookies for the technically sound and optimised provision of its services. If other cookies (e.g. cookies for analysing your surfing behaviour) are stored, these are treated separately in this Privacy Policy.
Server log files
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files which your browser sends to us automatically. These are:
Browser type and browser version, operating system used, referrer URL, host name of the accessing computer, time of server request, IP address
These data are not linked with other data sources.
These data are recorded on the basis of art. 6 par. 1 item f GDPR. The website operator has a justified interest in the technically correct appearance and optimisation of its website – the server log files must be recorded for this purpose.
Contact form
If you send a query to us through the contact form, your information from the contact form, including the contact information provided by you there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing your request and for any follow-up enquiries. We do not pass on these data without your consent.
The data entered into the contact form is therefore processed exclusively based on your consent (art. 6 par. 1 item a GDPR). You can withdraw this consent at any time. This can be done in an informal email to us. The legitimacy of the data processing before the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
The data you entered into the contact form remains with us until you request their deletion, withdraw your consent to storage or the purpose for the data storage ceases to exist (e.g. after processing your request is completed). Mandatory legal provisions – especially retention periods – remain unaffected.
Inquiry by email, phone or fax
If you contact us by email, phone or fax, your inquiry, including all data resulting from it (name, inquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass on these data without your consent.
Processing of this data is based on art. 6. par. 1 item b GDPR, in as far as your inquiry is linked to performance of a contract or is required for implementing pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on your consent (art. 6 par. 1 item a GDPR) and/or on our justified interests (art. 6 par. 1 item f GDPR), as we have a justified interest in the effective processing of inquiries sent to us.
The data you sent to us through the contact form remains with us until you request their deletion, withdraw your consent to storage or the purpose for the data storage ceases to exist (e.g. after processing your request is completed). Mandatory legal provisions – especially legal retention periods – remain unaffected.
