There is no complete protection against such access. However, we do our utmost to protect your data as best we can and to close security gaps as far as we can.<\/p>\n<p>An important protection mechanism is the SSL or TLS encryption of our website, which ensures that data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize the encryption by the lock icon in front of the Internet address entered in your browser and by the fact that our Internet address begins with https:\/\/ and not with http:\/\/.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Encrypted payment transac\u00adtions<\/h3>\n<p>Payment data, such as account or credit card numbers, require special protection. For this reason, payment transac\u00adtions made with the most common means of payment are carried out exclu\u00adsively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>How long do we store your data?<\/h3>\n<p>In some parts in this privacy policy, we inform you about how long we or the companies that process your data on our behalf will store your data. In the absence of such infor\u00admation, we store your data until the purpose of the data processing no longer applies, you object to the data processing or you revoke your consent to the data processing.<br>In the event of an objection or revocation, we may however continue to process your data if at least one of the following condi\u00adtions applies:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>We have compelling legitimate grounds for conti\u00adnuing to process the data that override your interests, rights and freedoms (only applies in the case of an objection to data processing; if the objection is to direct marketing, we cannot provide legitimate grounds).<\/li>\n<li>The data processing is necessary to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (does not apply if your objection is directed against direct adver\u00adtising).<\/li>\n<li>We are required by law to retain your data.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In this case, we will delete your data as soon as the requirement(s) cease to apply.<\/p>\n<div>\n<h3>Data transfer to the USA<\/h3>\n<p>On our website, we use tools from companies that transfer your data to the USA and store it there and, if necessary, process it further. The European Commission has adopted an adequacy decision for the EU-US data protection framework. The decision estab\u00adlishes that the US ensures an adequate level of protection for EU personal data trans\u00adferred to US companies. This decision is based on new safeguards and measures put in place by the US to meet data protection requi\u00adre\u00adments. The adequacy decision includes, among other things, restric\u00adtions and safeguards on access to data by US intel\u00adli\u00adgence agencies. Binding safeguards were intro\u00adduced to limit US intel\u00adli\u00adgence agencies\u2019 access to what is necessary and propor\u00adtionate to protect national security. In addition, enhanced oversight of US intel\u00adli\u00adgence activities was estab\u00adlished to ensure that restric\u00adtions on surveil\u00adlance activities are respected. An independent redress mechanism has also been estab\u00adlished to handle and resolve complaints from European citizens about access to their data. The EU-US data protection framework thus allows European companies to transfer data to certified US companies without having to introduce additional data protection safeguards. A list of all certified companies can be found at the following link: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dataprivacyframework.gov\/s\/participant-search\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">https:\/\/www.dataprivacyframework.gov\/s\/participant-search<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A change in the European Commis\u00adsion\u2019s decision cannot be ruled out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Data protection officer<\/h3>\n<p>We have appointed a data protection officer for our company.<\/p>\n<p>Dieter Dusdal<br>E\u2011mail: datenschutz@cobicon.de<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Your rights<\/h2>\n<h3>Objection to data processing<\/h3>\n<p>IF IT\u2019S STATED IN THIS PRIVACY STATEMENT THAT WE HAVE LEGITIMATE INTERESTS FOR THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DATA AND THAT THIS PROCESSING IS THEREFORE BASED ON ART. 6 PARA. 1 SENTENCE 1 LIT.

It is not possible for us to track all processing opera\u00adtions on the social networks we use, which is why further processing opera\u00adtions not listed here may be carried out by the operators of the social networks. You can find more infor\u00admation on this in the terms of use and privacy state\u00adments of the respective social networks.<\/p>\n<p>The processing of your data can be triggered by you visiting the website of the social network or our profile page there. Even if you visit a website that uses certain content of the network, e.g. like or share buttons, data may already be trans\u00admitted to the operators of the social network. If you yourself are a user of the social network and logged into your user account, your visit to our profile page can be assigned to your account by the operator of the social network. Even if you yourself have not regis\u00adtered a user account or are not logged in, the operator of the network may still collect your personal data, e.g. by recording your IP address or setting cookies. With this data, the operators can create user profiles adapted to your behavior and interests and show you interest-based adver\u00adtising inside and outside the network. If you are a regis\u00adtered user of the network, the interest-based adver\u00adtising may also be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.<\/p>\n<h5>On what legal basis is your data processed?<\/h5>\n<p>Our profiles in the social networks are intended to ensure the broadest possible presence of our company on the Internet. As a company, we have a legitimate interest in this. The data processing is therefore lawful according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.<\/p>\n<p>The data processing opera\u00adtions and analyses carried out by the operators of the social networks themselves may be based on other legal grounds. These must be stated by the operators of the social networks.<\/p>\n<h5>Who is respon\u00adsible for the processing of your data and how can you assert your rights?<\/h5>\n<p>If you visit one of our profiles on the social networks, we are jointly respon\u00adsible with the operator of the respective network for the data processing opera\u00adtions triggered during this visit. In principle, you can assert your rights both against us and against the operator of the respective network.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the joint respon\u00adsi\u00adbility with the operators of the social networks, however, our influence on the data processing opera\u00adtions of the respective operator is limited and is primarily based on the opera\u00adtor\u2019s speci\u00adfi\u00adca\u00adtions.<\/p>\n<h5>How long is your data stored?<\/h5>\n<p>If we collect data via our profiles in the social networks, these are deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose for storing them no longer applies, you request us to delete them or you revoke your consent to storage.
