We, Bernd Gruber GmbH, take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
You can usually use our website without providing any personal information. If personal information (such as your name, address, or email address) is collected on our website, this is always done on a voluntary basis as far as possible. This information will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent. We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating by email) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
We process the data you voluntarily provide by actively entering it (e.g., in inquiries, offers, etc.). This includes, for example, your master data, contact data, correspondence data, or even applicant data.
We also process data that is automatically collected from you (server, log files). This includes the Internet Protocol ("IP") used to connect your computer to the Internet. This includes the address, date, and time of the request, which file is requested, how much data is transferred to you, a message indicating whether the request was successful, identification data of the browser and operating system used, and the website from which access was made. However, this information is only used to determine the attractiveness of our website, to continuously improve its content, and to make it even more interesting for you.
This data is not merged with personal data. We reserve the right to check this data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of illegal use.
We process your rights based on
a) a contract to which you are a party or in the course of pre-contractual measures taken at your request;
b) Your consent to the electronic transmission of information and invitations, as well as when you contact us to process and respond to inquiries;
c) legal basis;
You have the right to receive information free of charge at any time about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, as well as the right to correction, data transfer, objection, restriction of processing, and blocking or deletion of incorrect or inadmissibly processed data. If you have any questions about personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notice.
Bernd Gruber GmbH guarantees that your data will be treated confidentially. It will not be passed on to third parties, for example through sale, rental, exchange, or any other means of making it available to third parties. The collection, processing, and use of personal data is sometimes essential for the postal delivery of materials and samples, the request for newsletters, or participation in a competition. Bernd Gruber GmbH takes the principle of data minimization very seriously and only collects data that is truly necessary for further processing. In addition, it is pointed out at the appropriate place that your data will be stored exclusively for the specific purpose. Insofar as Bernd Gruber GmbH uses a third party to process orders (documents, magazines, etc.), we assure you that your data will also be treated with the utmost care and will only be used for the purpose of the order.
