5. Cookies
(1) In addition to the log files referred to above, cookies are stored on your computer when you use our website. Cookies are small text files stored on the hard drive of your computer by your browser, which allow certain information to be passed to the location that sets the cookie (in this case us).

(3) For what purposes do we use cookies?
We use cookies to personalise content and ads, provide social media features and analyse traffic to our website.

When you visit our website, the country and language identified by the site or chosen by you are stored in cookies to save you having to re-select them during subsequent visits. A check is made beforehand to see whether your browser supports cookies and this information is stored in another cookie.

For example, we learn how often and in which order individual pages have been accessed and how much time visitors spend on average looking at our pages. We also find out whether users visited our website at an earlier point in time. The legal basis for this is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 letter a) GDPR.

This US company is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. There is hereby an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR, so that a transfer of personal data may also take place without further guarantees or additional measures.

6. Product and service information
(1) In the case of marketing, i.e. electronic transmission of product and service information via e-mail, invitations to trade fairs and events or white papers (hereinafter “product and service information”), we ask interested parties for their express approval of and consent to this Data Protection Statement.

(2) We use the “double opt-in” procedure. This means that, after you have registered, we will send an e-mail to the e-mail address you provided when you registered, in which we ask you to confirm that you wish to receive product and service information by e-mail. If you do not confirm your registration within 24 hours, your information will be blocked and automatically deleted after one month. We also store your addresses and dates of registration and confirmation. The purpose of the procedure is to have proof of your registration and, if necessary, clarify any possible misuse of your personal data.

(3) Following your confirmation, we will store your e-mail address for the purpose of sending you product and service information. The legal basis is provided by Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 letter a) GDPR.

(4) You can revoke and cancel your consent to receive product and service information at any time. To cancel, click on the link provided in every e-mail or send us a message using the contact details provided in the legal notice (Impressum).

7. Contact form and e-mail contact
(1) Our website contains various contact forms which can be used to contact us electronically. First, there is a general contact form which you can access by selecting “Contact”.  You can also use your own contact form to send us queries as part of an online application (see Section 9). When a user chooses this option, the data entered in the input screen will be transmitted to us and stored. The corresponding data immediately becomes visible in the input screen.
The following data will also be stored at the time of sending:

  • The user’s IP address
  • Date and time the form was sent

(2) Your consent to the processing of the data will always be requested, with reference to this Data Protection Statement. Alternatively, you can contact us via the e-mail addresses provided. In this case, the user’s personal data transmitted with the e-mail will be stored. The data will be used exclusively for the purposes of dealing with the inquiry.

(3) The legal basis for processing the data is provided by Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 letter a) GDPR, where the user has given their consent. The legal basis for processing data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail is provided by Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 letter f) GDPR. If the purpose of the e-mail contact is to conclude a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is provided by Art. 6 (1) letter b) GDPR. If the contact request or e-mail contact serves to initiate an employment relationship, particularly as part of an online application, the legal basis is provided by Section 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG).

(4) We will process personal data from the input screen solely for the purposes of establishing contact. Where contact is established via e-mail, this also constitutes the necessary legitimate interest in the processing of the data. The other personal data processed during the sending process serve to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.

(5) The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer needed to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. For personal data obtained from the input screen of the contact form and personal data sent by e-mail, this takes place when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation ends when it is apparent from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively resolved. The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of seven days at the latest.

8. Automated decision-making
In establishing and maintaining business relations, we generally refrain from fully automated decision-making pursuant to Art. 22 GDPR.

9. Profiling
In order to be able to provide you with targeted information and advice on products, we or service providers acting on our behalf may use web analysis tools, especially tracking technology. These allow communications and marketing to be tailored according to need. In this regard, we refer you to Section 12 Web analytics services.


B. DATA PROCESSING BY THIRD PARTIES

10. Web analytics services
Faller uses Google Analytics 4 and Pardot. The legal basis for this is the consent given to us pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 letter a) GDPR. We request your express consent the first time you visit.

a) Google Analytics 4

On our websites, we use Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (https://www.google.de/intl/de/about/) (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; hereinafter "Google"). In this context, pseudonymised usage profiles are created and cookies (see point "Cookies") are used. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website, such as

  • Browser type/version,
  • operating system used,
  • Referrer URL (the previously visited page),
  • host name of the accessing computer (IP address),
  • time of the server request,
  • are transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The information is used to evaluate the use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services associated with the use of the website and the Internet for the purposes of market research and the design of these Internet pages in line with requirements. This information may also be transferred to third parties if this is required by law or if third parties process this data on our behalf. Under no circumstances will your IP address be merged with other Google data. The IP addresses are anonymised so that an allocation is not possible (IP masking).

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 the full functionality of this website.

These processing operations will only be carried out if you have given your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a DS-GVO.

Furthermore, you can prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (incl. your IP address) as well as the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing a browser add-on (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de).

As an alternative to the browser add-on, especially for browsers on mobile devices, you can also prevent the collection by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link: Deactivate Google Analytics. An opt-out cookie will be set, which prevents the future collection of your data when visiting this website. The opt-out cookie is only valid in this browser and only for our website and is stored on your device. If you delete the cookies in this browser, you must set the opt-out cookie again.

Further information on data protection in connection with Google Analytics can be found, for example, in the Google Analytics help (https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de).

(7) This website uses Google Tag Manager as part of Google Analytics 4. Tags are small pieces of code on our website that are used, among other things, to measure traffic and visitor behaviour, determine the impact of online advertising and social channels, carry out remarketing and targeting, and test and optimise the website. Google Tag Manager is a solution that allows Busch to manage website tags via a single interface. The Tag Manager tool itself (which implements the tags) is a cookie-free domain. The tool triggers other tags that may themselves collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access these data. If deactivation has been carried out at the domain or cookie level, it will persist for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager.

(8) For further information about Google Tag Manager, visit www.google.de/tagmanager/use-policy.html

b) Pardot

(1) We use the Pardot Marketing Automation System (“Pardot MAS”) of Pardot LLC, 950 E. Paces Ferry Rd. Suite 3300 Atlanta, GA 30326, USA (“Pardot”) on our websites. Pardot is a special software for recording and evaluating the use of a website by website visitors. Insofar as Pardot LLC processes personal data, the processing is carried out exclusively on our behalf and in accordance with our instructions. We have concluded a separate agreement with Pardot LLC to ensure that Pardot LLC complies with the EU Data Protection Directive.

(2) When you visit our website, Pardot MAS records your click path and creates an individual user profile using a pseudonym. Cookies are used for this purpose, which enable your browser to be recognised. In agreeing to the use of cookies the first time you use our website, by confirming the cookie acceptance banner or by continuing to use our website, you also agree to the use of Pardot cookies.

(3) You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. To do so, please contact us using the contact details mentioned in Section 1 of this Data Protection Statement. You can also disable the creation of pseudonymised user profiles at any time by configuring your Internet browser so that cookies from the domain “pardot.com” are not accepted. However, this may limit the functionality of our website and make it less user-friendly.
 

c) Content Delivery Network
A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a network of regionally distributed servers connected via the Internet. Through this network, content, especially very large files, can be delivered quickly even during large load peaks. jQuery creates a copy of our website on their servers. So our website can be delivered as fast as possible. That is, the data transmission to your browser is shortened by a CDN.

(1) CloudFlare.:
Provider is CloudFlare, Inc. 665 3rd St. #200, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA.
CloudFlare offers a globally distributed content delivery network with DNS. Technically, the transfer of information between your browser and our website is routed through CloudFlare's network. CloudFlare is thus able to analyze the data traffic between users and our websites, for example, to detect and prevent attacks on our services. In addition, CloudFlare may store cookies on your computer for optimization and analysis.
We have concluded a corresponding agreement with Cloudflare on the basis of the DS-GVO for order processing or according to EU standard contractual clauses. Cloudflare collects statistical data about visits to this website.
The transfer of your personal data to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses.

StackPath retains personal data processed on our behalf for as long as necessary to provide services offered, as necessary to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
More information about StackPath's privacy practices can be found at www.stackpath.com/legal/privacy-statement and about jQuery at openjsf.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/84/2019/11/OpenJS-Foundation-Privacy-Policy-2019-11-15.pdf.

In order to deliver our website or all of our individual subpages (web pages) to you quickly and smoothly on different devices, we use services from jQuery CDN of the company jQuery Foundation. jQuery is distributed via the Content Delivery Network (CDN) of the American software company StackPath (LCC 2012 McKinney Ave. Suite 1100, Dallas, TX 75201, USA). Through this service, personal data of you is stored, managed and processed. In this Privacy Policy, we go into more detail about what data is processed from you through the use of jQuery CDN.

(3) BootstrapCDN:
In order to deliver all of our individual web pages (sub-pages of our website) to you quickly and securely on all devices, we use the Content Delivery Network (CDN) BootstrapCDN, an open source service provided by jsdelivr.com of the Polish software company ProspectOne, Królewska 65A/1, 30-081, Kraków, Poland. A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a network of regionally distributed servers connected via the Internet. Through this network, content, especially very large files, can be delivered quickly even during large peak loads.
BootstrapCDN works in such a way that so-called JavaScript libraries are delivered to your browser. If your browser now downloads a file from BootstrapCDN, your IP address is transmitted during the connection to the Bootstrap CDN server. Thus, personal data may also be sent and stored.

(4) If you have consented to Content Delivery Network systems being used, the legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 (1) lit. a DS-GVO. In addition, we have a legitimate interest in using them to optimize our online offering and make it more secure. The corresponding legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DS-GVO. The personal data will be retained for as long as they are required to fulfill the purpose of processing. The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose.

(5)Google Maps

By using this website, you consent to the collection, processing and use of data that may be automatically collected by Google and its agents. Google Maps Terms of Use.

Further information on these Google Fonts can be found at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq.
Please note that, due to the Cloud Act, American intelligence services could possibly gain access to personal data that is inevitably exchanged with Google due to the Internet Protocol when this tool is integrated.

(6)Google Maps Form
We offer an input form with which you can display the position of an address on the map, e.g. for route planning. The underlying map software is provided by Google Ireland Ltd, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google").

11. Social media
(1) We currently use the following social media plug-ins: Facebook, Instagram, Xing, LinkedIn. You can recognise the provider of the plug-in by the marking on the box above its initial letter or the logo. We enable you to communicate directly with the provider of the plug-in via the button. Only if you click on the marked field and thereby activate it will the plug-in provider be informed that you have accessed the corresponding website of our online service. In addition, the data referred to in Section 4 of this statement will be transmitted. In the case of Facebook and Xing, the IP address is made anonymous immediately after collection, according to information provided by the respective providers in Germany. By activating the plug-in, personal data are transferred from you to the respective plug-in provider and stored there (in the USA for US providers). Since the plug-in provider collects data mainly via cookies, we recommend that you delete all cookies before clicking on the greyed-out box using your browser’s security settings.

(2) We have no influence on the data collected and data processing methods, nor are we aware of the full extent of data collection, the purposes of processing or the storage periods. We also have no information about the deletion of data collected by the plug-in provider.

(3) The plug-in provider stores the data collected about you as user profiles and uses these for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such evaluation takes place in particular (including for users who are not logged in) to display demand-oriented advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, in which case you must contact the respective plug-in provider to exercise this right. Via the plug-ins, we enable you to interact with social networks and other users, so that we can improve our services and make them of greater interest to you as a user. The legal basis for the use of plug-ins is provided by Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 letter f) GDPR.

(4) Data transmission takes place regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and are logged in there. If you are logged into a plug-in provider, your data collected by us are directly associated with the account you have with the plug-in provider. If you click on the activated button and, for example, link the page, the plug-in provider also stores this information in your user account and shares it publicly with your contacts. We recommend regularly logging out after using a social network, in particular before activating the button, as in this way you can prevent a link being made by the plug-in provider to your profile.

(5) Further information on the purpose and scope of the collection and processing of data by the plug-in provider is available in the data protection statements of these providers listed below. There you can also find further information on your associated rights and setting options for protecting your privacy.

13. Vimeo (Videos)
Plugins from the Vimeo video portal of Vimeo, LLC, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA are integrated on our website. When you access a page on our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Vimeo servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted by Vimeo directly to your browser and integrated into the page. Through this integration, Vimeo receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Vimeo account or are not currently logged in to Vimeo. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted directly from your browser to a Vimeo server in the USA and stored there.
 

If you are logged in to Vimeo, Vimeo can directly associate your visit to our website with your Vimeo account. If you interact with the plugins (e.g. by clicking the start button of a video), this information is also transmitted directly to a Vimeo server and stored there.
If you do not want Vimeo to assign the data collected via our website directly to your Vimeo account, you must log out of Vimeo before visiting our website.

The Google Analytics tracking tool is automatically integrated into Vimeo videos that are embedded on our website. This is Vimeo's own tracking tool, to which we have no access and which cannot be influenced by our website. Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies" for tracking purposes. These are text files that are stored on your computer and enable your use of the website to be analysed. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
These processing operations are only carried out with your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.
