Privacy Policy

We take the pro­tec­tion of your per­sonal data very seri­ously. There­fore, we treat your per­sonal data always in accor­dance with the legal data pro­tec­tion oblig­a­tions. We have appointed a qual­i­fied and reli­able Data Pro­tec­tion Officer.The exter­nal com­mis­sion­ing of data pro­tec­tion will be con­ducted from UIMC Dr. Voßbein GmbH & Co KG.

In the fol­low­ing pol­icy doc­u­ment, we would like to inform you about the pro­cess­ing of per­sonal data.

I. Collection and Processing of Personal Data

You can use our web­site based on a non-dis­clo­sure of your iden­tity. Should we, on our web­site, ask for your per­sonal data, e.g. in a con­tact form or by reg­is­ter­ing / login and if per­sonal data are queried (in exam­ple name, address, email address or firm), we state that this will be done on a vol­un­tary basis on the basis of art. 6 (1) let. a GDPR. A con­tact is also pos­si­ble via the stated e‑mail address. In this case, the user’s per­sonal data passed on by e‑mail will be stored. The legal basis is Arti­cle 6 (1) let. a and Art. 6 (1) let. f GDPR. We use these infor­ma­tion for our busi­ness pur­poses, such as send­ing the requested mate­ri­als / infor­ma­tion and the busi­ness conversation.

The per­sonal data passed on as part of send­ing an e‑mail will be deleted after com­ple­tion of your request and after expiry of the tax and com­mer­cial reten­tion obligations.

If you have given your con­sent (for exam­ple for the pur­pose of receiv­ing our newslet­ter or other inter­est­ing infor­ma­tion), you can reverse it at any time with­out stat­ing any rea­sons. The request will take effect for future com­mu­ni­ca­tions. For revers­ing your con­sent you can use the e‑mail address «info@bm‑t.com» or any other path­way stated in the newsletter.

II. Communication

We would like to point out that there can be secu­rity loop­holes when data is trans­mit­ted via Inter­net (e.g. in email com­mu­ni­ca­tions) and that it is not pos­si­ble to com­pletely pre­vent third par­ties from gain­ing access to data.

We hereby expressly object to con­tact data pub­lished in accor­dance with the Ger­man Tele­me­dia Act being used by third par­ties to send adver­tis­ing and infor­ma­tion mate­r­ial which has not been expressly requested. The site oper­a­tors reserve the express right to take legal steps if adver­tis­ing infor­ma­tion, such as spam mails, for exam­ple, is sent unsolicited.

III. Cookies

This site largely dis­claims the use of “cook­ies”. Cook­ies are text files that will be stored on your com­puter because of tech­ni­cal rea­sons, to rec­og­nize func­tion­al­i­ties and your pref­er­ences for your next visit such as the login in the back­end (until you close the browser win­dow), a newslet­ter sub­scrip­tion (for 2 years), deac­ti­vat­ing the newslet­ter sub­scrip­tion form (for 2 weeks) or accept­ing the cookie infor­ma­tion (for 1 month). You can pre­vent the instal­la­tion of cook­ies through an appro­pri­ate set­ting in your browser. How­ever, this could lead to func­tional limitations.

IV. Logging (currently inactive)

Every time access­ing this web­site, pro­to­cols for sta­tis­ti­cal pur­poses will be cre­ated and processed whereby sin­gle users will remain anonymous:

• Refer­rer (site from the link you reached this website)
• Search terms (by search engines as referrer)
• IP address is stored to detect hacker attacks and troubleshooting.
• Type and Ver­sion of browser and oper­a­tion system
• Access time of the visit on the website.

We are pro­cess­ing the men­tioned data based on our legit­i­mate inter­est in accor­dance with Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR for the fol­low­ing purposes:

• Ensur­ing a smooth con­nec­tion build-up of the website,
• Ensur­ing a com­fort­able and error-free use of our website,
• Eval­u­a­tion of sys­tem secu­rity and sta­bil­ity as well
• For fur­ther admin­is­tra­tive purposes.

We reserve the right to check this data sub­se­quently if we have con­crete indi­ca­tions of an ille­gal use. The data will be deleted imme­di­ately if they are no longer nec­es­sary for the pur­pose, and at the lat­est after two months.

V. Transfer of Data

A trans­fer to third par­ties for com­mer­cial or non-com­mer­cial pur­poses will not hap­pen with­out your explicit con­sent. We only pass on your per­sonal data to third par­ties if this is per­mit­ted by law [eg. on the basis of Arti­cle 6 GDPR] and / or required. Partly, we use exter­nal ser­vice providers within the scope of an order data pro­cess­ing; for exam­ple, our web­site is hosted by Host Europe GmbH and main­tained by XP.DT. In this case, the full respon­si­bil­ity for data pro­cess­ing remains with us. Fur­ther­more, we some­times use plu­g­ins from other providers on our web­site. On this topic, you will find more details below.

We advice you that we also trans­fer per­sonal data with the above-men­tioned pur­pose if nec­es­sary to our group com­pa­nies (Thüringer Auf­baubank).

It is impor­tant to dis­tin­guish between our own con­tent and ref­er­ences (“links”) that lead to other con­tent from other providers. We have no influ­ence on the con­tent of the linked web­sites.
