Privacy Policy

Wiedenbeck & Züfle GbR (retrostiel)

We make the following declaration in order to comply with our statutory obligation to provide information and inform you about the storage of data, the type of data, its purpose and our identity. We also notify you of the initial transfer and the type of data transmitted.

1. Subject matter of data protection

The subject matter of the data protection is personal data. This means any particulars concerning the personal or material circumstances of an identified or identifiable natural person. This may include the name, postal address, e-mail address, but also usage data such as the IP address of a computer.

2. Automatic anonymous data collection, processing and use

We automatically collect, process or use non-personal information that your browser sends to us (cookies). This information includes:

  • Browser type / version
  • Operating system
  • Referrer URL (source of a link)
  • IP address (host name of the computer used)
  • Time of the server request

Via the “Settings” function in the menu bar, most web browsers allow you to select a setting in which your browser does not accept new cookies in the future or switches off cookies already received. However, this may adversely affect individual functions of the website. If you would nevertheless like to limit the use of cookies, you must ensure that each computer and browser you are working with has the desired level of protection.

3. Personal data collection, processing and use

Collection, processing, or use of personal data is not strictly necessary in order to use the website and we do not do this. Data collection, processing or use only takes place if you voluntarily submit your personal information. This may be necessary in the following cases:

(1) Registration
Prior registration is required in order to conclude a contract. It is necessary to provide personal data for this purpose. The following personal information is requested in this process:

  • Surname, first name
  • Address
  • E-mail address
  • Gender

(2) Contract execution
It may be necessary to forward your personal information to companies that we engage to provide a service or for the execution of a contract. These may be transport companies or other service companies, for example. Data will not be disclosed to third parties beyond the level required for the processing of transactions.

(3) Disclosure to third parties and to government bodies and authorities
In other cases, information will be disclosed to third parties only if you have previously given your consent. You have the right to revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future.

We disclose information to authorized government bodies and authorities only as part of our legal obligations or as a result of a legal ruling.

(4) Advertising
We use the customer’s personal data for the purpose of advertising, but we only do so with the prior consent of the customer (see below).

(5) Data transfer to foreign countries
As a matter of principle, we do not transmit any collected data to foreign countries.

(6) Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. In case of activation of the IP anonymization, Google will truncate/anonymize the last octet of the IP address for Member States of the European Union as well as for other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases, the full IP address is sent to and shortened by Google servers in the USA. On behalf of the website provider Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website provider. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. 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. Furthermore you can prevent Google’s collection and use of data (cookies and IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en-GB).

Further information concerning the terms and conditions of use and data privacy can be found at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html.
Please note that on this website, Google Analytics code is supplemented by “gat._anonymizeIp();” to ensure an anonymized collection of IP addresses (so called IP-masking).

(7) Google AdSense
We use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our website. These companies may use information (not including your name, address, email address, or telephone number) about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.

(8) Use of telemedia
We collect and use personal data to the extent necessary to enable the use of telemedia (usage data). Such usage data particularly encompasses attributes of your identification as a customer, information about the beginning, end, and extent of the respective usage, and information about the telecommunications media used by the customer.

(9) Use of usage data for billing
We utilize usage data after the end of the user activity to the extent that such data is required for the purpose of customer billing (billing data). We collate a customer’s usage data relating to his use of various telemedia, insofar as this is necessary for billing. In order to comply with existing legal, statutory or contractual retention periods, the service provider is entitled to block the data.

(10) Disclosure of data to third parties
We transmit billing data to other service providers or third parties to the extent that this is required for the calculation of payments and customer billing. If we have concluded a contract with a third party concerning the collection of payments, we are entitled to transmit billing data to this third party to the extent that it is required for this purpose. Anonymized usage data may be transmitted for the purpose of other service providers’ market research.

(11) Use of Facebook-Plug-Ins
We are using on our website Plug-Ins of the social network facebook.com („Facebook“) which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. When you visit a webpage on our website that contains this plugin, a connection is made to Facebook’s web-servers which then instructs your web-browser to display the plugin on that webpage. In this way information about which of our webpages you have visited is passed on to Facebook. If you are logged in as a member of Facebook at the same time, Facebook will allocate this information to your personal Facebook user account. When using the plugin functions (for example by clicking the ‘like’ button or adding a comment), Facebook will also associate this information with your Facebook account. This can only be avoided by logging off beforehand. More information on the exaltation and usage of data through Facebook and your rights and possibilities for protecting your privacy can be found on the data privacy protection instruction on Facebook.

4. Minors

We pay particular attention to ensuring the protection of personal information of children. That is why data from minors will not be collected, processed or used with our knowledge, unless the parents or legal guardians have given their consent. Should we detect that minors are entering personal information on their own without the appropriate consent or that personal data about such persons is being entered, we will delete that data immediately.

5. Right to information

Customers always have the opportunity to request information about the data stored about them, including about the origin and the recipient or recipient categories of this data, and about the purpose of its storage.

6. Deletion and blocking

We undertake to delete the personal data processed for our own purposes, as soon as that information is no longer necessary for satisfying the purpose of its storage. Data is blocked rather than deleted, if deletion conflicts with legal, statutory or contractual retention periods, if there is reason to believe that interests of the affected party that warrant protection would be impaired by deletion, or if, due to the specific type of storage, deletion is not possible or would only be possible by investing a disproportionate amount of time and effort.
In addition, you can arrange for the data we collected about you to be blocked, corrected or deleted at any time. This data will also be deleted if you revoke your consent to the collection, processing and use of personal data. If your revocation occurs during an ongoing business transaction, deletion will be carried out immediately on its completion.
Further statutory deletion or blocking obligations remain unaffected by this.

7. Technical and organizational measures

We are committed to taking all technical and organizational measures necessary to ensure the implementation of the regulations on data protection, provided the effort involved is proportionate to the intended protective purpose. As we cannot guarantee complete data security for communication by e-mail, we recommend sending any confidential information by post.
