Privacy statement
Protecting your privacy when processing personal data is an important concern for us. We process personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR), the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and other statutory provisions that apply to electronic commerce. Below you will find an overview of how we use your data.
Information we receive from you
We record and store all data that you enter on our website or transmit to us in any other way. You are free not to give us all the information we ask for. This may mean that you cannot use our services to their full extent. We receive the information you give us through completed questionnaires and forms, when you search for and buy products, when you take part in competitions and when you otherwise use our services. This information may be: name, address details, telephone number, e-mail details, messages, tax numbers and financial data.
Automatically collected non-personal data
When you visit our websites, our web servers store by default the name of your internet service provider, the website from which you visit us, the pages you visit on our website and the date and duration of your visit. We use this information to determine how attractive our websites are and to improve their performance and content. When you access our websites via telecommunications services, communication-related data (e.g. internet protocol address) and usage-related data (e.g. information on the start and duration of use and on the telecommunications services you use) are generated automatically by technical means. These may allow conclusions to be drawn about personal data. Insofar as the collection, processing and use of your communication-related or usage-related data is absolutely necessary, it is subject to the statutory data protection regulations. When you visit one of our websites, we may store information on your computer in the form of a "cookie" that automatically recognises it on your next visit. Cookies allow us, for example, to adapt a website to your interests. If you do not want us to recognise your computer, please set your internet browser to delete cookies from your computer's hard drive, to block all cookies or to warn you before a cookie is stored.
Processing of personal data
We process and use your personal data to perform contracts and to handle your enquiries, and to inform you about our services and items. As your consent may include the transfer of your data to the companies of Spranz and to the Spranz partners you have chosen, your data may also be passed on in this way. You can of course withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. You can object at any time to the processing and use of your personal data for advertising purposes by contacting Spranz (preferably in writing): Spranz GmbH, Ernst-Sachs-Straße 2, 56070 Koblenz, Germany, info@spranz.de; fax: +49 261 98 488-40; tel. +49 261 98 488-0. Personal data is only collected by or transmitted to state institutions and authorities within the framework of mandatory national legislation. We have obliged our employees to maintain confidentiality and data secrecy.
If you have any questions about the processing of your personal data, you can contact our data protection officer, who is also available for requests for information, suggestions or complaints. As the internet continues to develop, we will also adapt our data protection policy on an ongoing basis. We will announce changes on this page in good time. You should therefore visit this page regularly to find out about the current version of the privacy policy.
Right to information
On request, we will inform you in writing as soon as possible whether and which personal data about you is stored by us. Should incorrect information be stored despite our efforts to keep data accurate and up to date, we will correct it at your request.
Security
We use technical and organisational security measures to protect the data we manage against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorised persons. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
Links to other websites
Our web pages may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for their privacy policies or the content of these other websites.
Credit check
If we perform in advance, e.g. for a purchase on account, we may obtain a credit report based on mathematical-statistical procedures in order to protect our legitimate interests. For this purpose, we transmit the personal data required for a credit check to Bürgel Wirtschaftsinformation and use the information received on the statistical probability of a payment default for a balanced decision on the establishment, performance or termination of the contractual relationship. The credit report may contain probability values (score values) that are calculated on the basis of scientifically recognised mathematical-statistical procedures and whose calculation includes, among other things, address data. Your legitimate interests are taken into account in accordance with the statutory provisions.
Use of data when subscribing to the e-mail newsletter
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we use the data required for this or the data you provide separately to send you our e-mail newsletter regularly. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time, either by sending a message to the contact details given in the legal notice or via the link provided for this purpose in the newsletter.
