Privacy Policy

We welcome you to our website and are pleased about your interest. The protection of your personal data is very important to us. Therefore, we conduct our business in compliance with applicable laws on data privacy protection and data security. We would like to inform you in the following about which data of your visit is used for which purposes.

Data protection officer

What are personal data?

The term personal data is defined in the Bundesdatenschutzgesetz (Federal Data Protection Act) and the GDPR. According to these laws, these are individual details about personal or factual circumstances of a specific or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, your civil name, your address, your telephone number or your date of birth. Find out more about what exactly data protection is here.

Scope of anonymous data collection and data processing

Unless otherwise stated in the following sections, no personal data is collected, processed or used when using our websites. However, by using analysis and tracking tools, we learn certain technical information based on the data transmitted by your browser (e.g. browser type/version, operating system used, web pages visited on our website incl. length of stay, previously visited website). We evaluate this information for statistical purposes only.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

  1. Where we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations involving personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. a) EU Genereal Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.
  2. Art. 6 (1) lit. b) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party. This also applies to processing operations necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures.
  3. Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) lit. c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
  4. In cases where vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make it necessary to process personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
  5. If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or of a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

Creation of log files

With each call of the Internet page the Aquarium Glaser GmbH collects data and information by an automated system. These are stored in the log files of the server. The data is also stored in the log files of our system. These data are not stored together with other personal data of the user.
(1) Information about the type of browser and the version used
(2) The user's operating system
(3) The user's Internet service provider
(4) The user's IP address
(5) The date and time of access
(6) Websites from which the user's system accesses our website (referrer)
(7) Websites that are accessed by the user's system via our website

Routine deletion and blocking of personal data

The controller shall process and store personal data relating to the data subject only for as long as necessary to achieve the purpose of storage. In addition, data may be stored for as long as this is provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. As soon as the storage purpose ceases to apply or a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned regulations expires, the personal data is routinely blocked or deleted.

Rights of the data subject

If your personal data is processed, you are the data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you are entitled to the following rights in relation to the person responsible:

Right of access by the data subject acc. to Art. 15 GDPR

You can request confirmation from the person responsible as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed by us. If such processing is carried out, you may ask the controller for information on:

  8. the existence of automated decision making, including profiling, in accordance with Art. 22, (1) and (4) GDPR and, at least in these cases, meaningful information on the logic involved and the scope and intended effects of such processing on the data subject.

You have the right to request information whether your personal data are transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you may request to be informed of the appropriate guarantees in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer.

Right to rectification acc. to Art. 16 GDPR

You have the right to obtain from the data controller the rectification and/or integration of any personal data processed concerning you if it is incorrect or incomplete. The data controller shall make the correction without delay.

Right to erasure acc. to Art. 17 GDPR

(1) You may request the controller to delete your personal data immediately and the controller is obliged to delete such data immediately if one of the following reasons applies:

  1. The personal data concerning you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
  2. You revoke your consent on which the processing was based in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
  3. You object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR and there are no legitimate reasons for the processing which take precedence, or you object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 (2) GDPR.
  4. The personal data concerning you have been processed unlawfully
  5. The deletion of personal data concerning you is necessary to comply with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.
  6. The personal data concerning you have been collected in relation to information society services offered, in accordance with Art. 8 (1) GDPR.

(2) If the controller has made your personal data public and is obliged to delete them in accordance with Art. 17 (1) GDPR, he shall take reasonable measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and implementation costs, to inform data controllers who process the personal data that you, as a data subject, have requested them to delete all links to these personal data or copies or replications of these personal data.

(3) The right to erasure shall not apply where the processing is necessary

  1. for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information;
  2. to comply with a legal obligation to which the processing is subject under Union or national law to which the controller is subject, or to carry out a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
  3. for reasons of public interest relating to public health pursuant to Art. 9 (2) (h) and i as well as Art. 9 (3) GDPR;
  4. for archiving purposes in the public interest, for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89 (1) GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in para. 1 is likely to render impossible or seriously prejudice the attainment of the objectives of such processing, or
  5. to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

Right to restriction of processing acc. to Art. 18 GDPR

Under the following conditions, you may request the restriction of the processing of your personal data:

  1. if you dispute the accuracy of your personal data for a period of time that allows the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
  2. if the processing is unlawful and you refuse to delete the personal data and instead request the restriction of the use of the personal data;
  3. if the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you need them for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims; or
  4. if you have lodged an objection to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate reasons of the controller outweigh your reasons.

If the processing of your personal data has been restricted, these data - apart from their storage - may only be processed with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of major public interest of the Union or a Member State. If the restriction on processing has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

Notification obligation regarding rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing acc. to Art. 19 GDPR

If you have exercised the right to rectify, erase or limit the processing, the controller is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed of this rectification, erasure or limitation of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed of these recipients by the controller.

Right to data portability acc. to Art. 20 GDPR

You have the right to receive your personal data, which you have provided to the responsible person, in a structured, common and machine-readable format. In addition, you have the right to transfer this data to another responsible party without hindrance by the responsible party to whom the personal data has been made available, if

  1. the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR and
  2. the processing is carried out using automated procedures. In exercising this right, you also have the right to request that your personal data be transferred directly from one responsible party to another, insofar as this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons may not be impaired by this. The right to data transferability shall not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Right of objection acc. to Art. 21 GDPR

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The controller will no longer process your personal data unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to processing of your personal data for such marketing; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes. You have the possibility, in connection with the use of information society services - notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC - to exercise your right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

Automated decision in individual cases including profiling

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. This does not apply if the decision

  1. is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the controller,
  2. is permitted by legal provisions of the Union or the Member States to which the controller is subject, and these legal provisions contain appropriate measures to protect your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, or
  3. is done with your explicit consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9 (1) GDPR, unless Art. 9 (2) (a) or (g) applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect the rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.

With regard to the cases mentioned in a. and c., the controller shall take reasonable steps to safeguard the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, which include, at a minimum, the right to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to object to the decision.

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority acc. to Art. 77 GDPR

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, place of employment or place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR. The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been lodged will inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Art. 78 GDPR.

Duration of storage of personal data

Personal data is stored for the duration of the respective legal retention period. After expiry of the period, the data is routinely deleted, unless it is necessary for the initiation or fulfilment of a contract.

hellotrust

Description and purpose

We use the features of hellotrust (Keyed GmbH, Siemensstr. 12, 48341 Altenberge, Germany) on our website. hellotrust provides a legally required cookie notice and allows the operator to manage opt-in and opt-out via a cookie consent manager. To determine which tools are used, the website is scanned by the hellotrust crawler. Subsequently, the scanned information flows into the Cookie Note/Cookie Consent Manager. 

Legal basis

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR.

Recipient

The recipient of your personal data is Keyed GmbH (Siemensstr. 12, 48341 Altenberge, Germany).

Transfer to third countries

There is no transfer of your personal data to a third country. However, we are aware of our responsibility and regularly review the framework conditions and legal changes. Should a transfer to a third country occur, we will update this information as soon as possible.

Data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In addition, the data will be deleted if you exercise your right to erasure pursuant to Art. 17 (1) GDPR. 

Contractual and legal obligation

Further information on data protection

Here you will find further information on processing of your personal data:

https://hellotrust.de/datenschutz/

Data transmission to third countries

The controller may transfer personal data to a third country. In principle, the controller may provide various appropriate safeguards to ensure that an adequate level of protection is provided for the processing operations. It is possible to transfer data transfers on the basis of an adequacy finding, internal data protection rules, approved codes of conduct, standard data protection clauses or an approved certification mechanism pursuant to Art. 46 (2) (a) - (f) GDPR.

If the person responsible undertakes a transfer to a third country on the legal basis of Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR, you will be informed at this point about the possible risks of a data transfer to a third country.

There is a risk that the third country receiving your personal data may not provide an equivalent level of protection compared to the protection of personal data in the European Union. This may be the case, for example, if the EU Commission has not issued an adequacy decision for the third country in question or if certain agreements between the European Union and the third country in question are declared invalid. Specifically, there are risks in some third countries with regard to the effective protection of EU fundamental rights through the use of monitoring laws (e.g. USA). In such a case, it is the responsibility of the controller and the recipient to assess whether the rights of data subject in the third country enjoy a level of protection equivalent to that in the Union and can be effectively enforced.

However, the basic data protection regulation should not undermine the level of protection of natural persons ensured throughout the Union when personal data are transferred from the Union to controllers, processors or other recipients in third countries or to international organizations, even if personal data are further transferred from a third country or from an international organization to controllers or processors in the same or another third country or to the same or another international organization.

Integration of other third-party services and content

Description and purpose

It can happen that within this online offer contents of third parties, such as videos, fonts or graphics from other websites are integrated. This always requires that the providers of these contents (hereinafter referred to as "third party providers") are aware of the IP address of the users. Without the IP address, they would not be able to send the content to the browser of the respective user. The IP address is therefore necessary for the display of this content. We make every effort to use only such content whose respective providers use the IP address only to deliver the content. However, we have no influence on this if the third-party providers store the IP address for statistical purposes, for example. As far as we are aware of this, we inform the users about it. We would like to provide and improve our online offer through these integrations.

Legal basis

The legal basis for the integration of other services and content of third parties is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our overriding legitimate interest lies in the intention of an appropriate presentation of our online presence and user-friendly and economically efficient services on our part. For further information, please refer to the respective privacy statements of the providers.

Contractual or legal obligation to provide personal data

The provision of personal data is neither legally nor contractually required and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are also not obliged to provide the personal data. However, failure to provide it may mean that you are unable to use this function or cannot use it to its full extent.

    Applications

    By submitting their application to us, applicants agree to the processing of their data for the purposes of the application procedure in accordance with the type and scope described in this data protection declaration. The legal basis for the processing of applicant data is Art. 88 GDPR, § 26 BDSG-neu (Federal Data Protection Act) and Art. 9 (2) (b) GDPR. Insofar as special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) GDPR are voluntarily communicated as part of the application procedure, they will also be processed in accordance with Art. 9 (2) (b) GDPR (e.g. health data, such as severely disabled status or ethnic origin). Insofar as special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) GDPR are requested from applicants within the framework of the application procedure, their processing is additionally carried out in accordance with Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR (e.g. health data if these are necessary for the exercise of the profession). If made available, applicants can submit their applications to us by means of an online form on our website. The data will be transmitted to us in encrypted form according to the state of the art. Applicants can also send us their applications by e-mail. Please note, however, that e-mails are generally not encrypted and that applicants must ensure that they are encrypted themselves. We can therefore not assume any responsibility for the transmission path of the application between the sender and the receipt on our server and therefore recommend rather to use an online form or the postal dispatch. This is because instead of applying via the online form and e-mail, applicants still have the option of sending us their application by post. In the event of a successful application, the data provided by the applicants can be processed by us for the purposes of the employment relationship. Otherwise, if the application for a job offer is not successful, the applicants' data is deleted. Applicants' data is also deleted if an application is withdrawn, which applicants are entitled to do at any time. The data will be deleted after the expiry of a period of six months so that we can answer any follow-up questions regarding the application and meet our obligations to provide evidence under the General Equal Treatment Act. Invoices for any reimbursement of travel expenses will be archived in accordance with tax law requirements.

    Contact opportunities

    On the internet pages of Aquarium Glaser GmbH there is a contact form which can be used for electronic contact. Alternatively, it is possible to contact us via the provided e-mail address. If the data subject contacts the data controller via one of these channels, the personal data transmitted by the data subject is automatically stored. The storage is solely for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. The data will not be passed on to third parties. The legal basis for the processing of the data is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR if the user has given his or her consent. The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If the e-mail contact is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. For personal data from the input mask of the contact form and those sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is terminated when it can be concluded from the circumstances that the matter in question has been finally clarified. The personal data additionally collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of seven days at the latest.

    Newsletter

    If the newsletter of our company is subscribed to, the data in the respective input mask will be transmitted to the person responsible for processing. The subscription to our newsletter is carried out in a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after registration you will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that nobody can register with foreign e-mail addresses. When registering for the newsletter, the IP address of the user and the date and time of registration are stored. This serves to prevent abuse of the services or the e-mail address of the person concerned. The data will not be passed on to unauthorized third parties. For the purpose of sending the newsletter, however, necessary data could be transmitted to appropriate service providers. Furthermore, an exception exists if there is a legal obligation to pass on the data. The data is used exclusively for sending the newsletter. The subscription to the newsletter can be cancelled by the person concerned at any time. Likewise, the consent to the storage of personal data can be revoked at any time. For this purpose there is a corresponding link in every newsletter. The legal basis for the processing of the data after registration for the newsletter by the user is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR if the user has given his consent. The legal basis for the dispatch of the newsletter as a result of the sale of goods or services is § 7 (3) Act against Unfair Competition (UWG).

    Registration on our website

    Where the data subject takes advantage of the possibility to register on the Internet site of the controller by providing personal data, the data shall be communicated to the controller in the relevant input mask. The data shall be stored by the controller solely for the purposes of internal use. The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected. When registering, the user's IP address and the date and time of registration are stored. This serves to prevent abuse of the services. The data will not be passed on to third parties. An exception is made if there is a legal obligation to pass on the data. The registration of the data is necessary for the provision of contents or services. Registered persons have the possibility at any time to have the stored data deleted or changed. The person concerned will receive information about their stored personal data at any time.

    Data Recipients

    To the extent permitted or required by law, or to the extent you have consented, we will also share your personal data with other recipients who provide services on our behalf. We limit the disclosure of your personal data to the extent necessary. In some cases, our service providers receive your personal data as processors and are then strictly bound by our instructions when handling your personal data (data protection agreements pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR). In some cases, the recipients act independently with your data that we transfer to them. Subsequent categories of service providers/recipients may receive your data:

    • Provider of email marketing via newsletter
    • Provider of hosting services for the operation of our servers
    • Service providers in the area of job applications to assist in the selection of applicants
    • Service providers for development work, including programming, development, maintenance and support of software applications
    • Service provider for postal services
    • External legal services
    • Marketing agencies/ website support
    • Other IT service providers (e.g., system houses)
    • Other services and tools

    The service providers we engage, must comply with strict confidentiality requirements. They are only given the necessary access to your data to perform the assigned tasks.

    In the event of a suspected criminal offense, data may be disclosed to law enforcement authorities.

    Safety

    We have taken extensive technical and operational precautions to protect your data from accidental or deliberate manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorised persons. Our security procedures are regularly reviewed and adapted to technological progress. In addition, we guarantee data protection on an ongoing basis by constantly auditing and optimizing our data protection organization.

    friendly captcha

    Description and purpose

    This website uses the service "Friendly Captcha" (www.friendlycaptcha.com). This service is an offer of the provider Friendly Captcha GmbH, Am Anger 3-5, 82237 Wörthsee, Germany. Friendly Captcha is a novel, privacy-friendly protection solution to make it more difficult for automated programs and scripts (so-called "bots") to use this website. In this context, we have integrated a program code from Friendly Captcha into our website (e.g. for contact forms) so that the end device of the visitor can establish a connection to the servers of Friendly Captcha in order to receive a calculation task from Friendly Captcha. The end device of the respective visitor solves the calculation task (puzzle), which takes up certain system resources, and sends the calculation result to our web server. This web server contacts the Friendly Captcha server via an interface and receives as a response whether the puzzle was solved correctly by the end device. Depending on the result, we can apply security rules to requests via our website and thus, for example, process them further or reject them.

    Friendly Captcha processes and stores the following data in the process described above:

    • Anonymized IP address of the requesting computer.
    • Information about the browser used, as well as operating system.
    • Anonymized counter per IP address to control the cryptographic tasks.
    • Web page from which the access took place.
    • The version of the widget.
    • A timestamp.

    This data is used exclusively for the protection against spam and bots described above. Friendly Captcha does not set or read cookies on the visitor's device. IP addresses are only stored in hashed (one-way encrypted) form and do not allow us and Friendly Captcha to draw any conclusions about an individual person.

    Legal basis

    The legal basis for the processing is our overriding legitimate interests in protecting our website from abusive access by bots, hence spam protection and protection against attacks (e.g. mass requests), Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

    Recipient

    The recipient is Friendly Captcha GmbH, Am Anger 3-5, 82237 Wörthsee.

    Objection

    In accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time. If you exercise your right, processing for this purpose will no longer take place. Further information on this can be found above in our privacy policy under "Rights of data subjects".

    Transfer to third countries

    A transfer to a third country does not take place.

    Duration of data storage

    If personal data is collected, it will be deleted after 30 days at the latest.

    Contractual and legal obligation

    There is no contractual or legal obligation for the provision of data.

    Further data protection information

    Further information on data protection when using Friendly Captcha can be found at https://friendlycaptcha.com/legal/privacy-end-users/.
