Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent you have previously given at any time. For this purpose, an informal notification by email to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the time of revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

If the data processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6, paragraph 1, subparagraph e or f GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation, including profiling based on these provisions. You will find the legal basis on which processing is based in this privacy statement. If you object, we will no longer process the personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling reasons for processing, which are worthy of protection and which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or unless the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (objection under Art. 21, paragraph 1 GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing, including profiling, insofar as it is linked to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for the purpose of direct marketing (objection under Art. 21, paragraph 2 GDPR).

In the event of infringements of the GDPR, those concerned have a right of appeal to a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their usual place of residence, their place of work or the place of the suspected infringement. This right of appeal is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

You have the right to have data, which we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible party, this will only take place to the extent that it is technically feasible.

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to obtain information, free of charge, at any time about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing and, if applicable, a right to correct, block or delete this data. For this purpose, as well as for further questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the site notice.

You have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. To do so, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the site notice. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:

• If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data.
• If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request a restriction of processing instead of deletion.
• If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data instead of deleting it.
• If you have filed an objection under Art. 21, paragraph 1 GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to demand that the processing of your personal data be restricted.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may be processed, apart from its storage, only with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

• Browser type
• Browser version
• Operating system used
• Referrer URL
• Time of the server request
• IP address
• HTTP status code (200)
• Size of the transmission (9728)
• Access method (GET)

The log data is stored on the web server for a period of 7 days (§ 113b (3) No. 1 TKG).

This data is not merged with other data sources.

This data is recorded on the basis of Art. 6, paragraph 1, subparagraph f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free display and optimization of its website – this requires the server log files to be collected.

This website uses functions of the Google Analytics web analysis service. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (Google), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics uses so-called cookies. These are text files that are stored on your computer and that enable your use of the website to be analyzed. 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.

The storage of Google Analytics cookies and the use of this analysis tool are based on Art. 6, paragraph 1, subparagraph f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the analysis of user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising.

We have activated the IP anonymization function on this website. This means that your IP address will be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before it is transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activities and provide further services to the website operator in connection with the use of the website and the Internet. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics is not combined with other data from Google.

User and event-level data stored at Google that is linked to cookies, user IDs or advertising IDs (e.g., DoubleClick cookies, Android advertising ID) is anonymized or deleted after 14 months. Please see the following link for details: Google Policies

The LinkedIn Insight Tag is a piece of lightweight JavaScript code that we have added to our websites to enable in-depth campaign reporting and to help us unlock valuable insights about our website visitors. We use the LinkedIn Insight Tag to track conversions, retarget website visitors, and unlock additional insights about members interacting with our LinkedIn adverts. The LinkedIn Insight Tag enables the collection of metadata such as IP address information, timestamp, and events such as page views. All data is encrypted. The LinkedIn browser cookie is stored in a visitor's browser until they delete the cookie or the cookie expires (there’s a rolling six-month expiration from the last time the visitor’s browser loaded the Insight Tag). You can opt out of cookies from LinkedIn on your LinkedIn settings page and recommend you read their Cookie Policy for more information.

It can happen that within our online offer contents or services of third-party providers, such as city maps or fonts, are integrated from other websites. The integration of content from third-party providers always requires that the third-party providers be aware of the users’ IP addresses, since without the IP addresses they would not be able to send the content to the users’ browsers. The IP address is therefore necessary to display this content. Furthermore, the providers of the third-party content may set their own cookies and process the users’ data for their own purposes. In doing so, user profiles can be created from the processed data. We will use this content such that the data economy and data avoidance criteria are respected as much as possible and will select reliable third-party providers with regard to data security.

The following presentation offers an overview of third-party providers and their contents as well as links to their privacy statements, which contain further information on data processing and, as already mentioned here to some extent, the possibility of objecting (so-called opt-out):

Grenzebach concludes various contracts (e.g. contracts with customers, suppliers, system partners, service agencies, repair processing and other business partners), in order to meet their economic purposes. The data collection as well as the data processing are used for the establishment, execution and termination of the contractual relationship. If necessary, the data are processed within the scope of fullfilment of the legal obligations of the state import and export control. The priority legal basis for this are Article 6, par. 1b and c) GDPR. As far as required we process your data based on Art. 6 par. 1 f) GDPR, in order to respect the interest of Grenzebach or third parties (e.g. authorities). This particularly applies in the company for the purpose of Inter-company control, the internal communication and other management purposes, but also for the respect of internal and world-wide compliance standards. Besides, the processing of personal data can be based on your consent as per Article 6, par. 1a) GDPR.

The categories of personal data processed include especially your contact data (name of the company, address, first and last name of a contact person, mobile number, e-mail address of the corresponding partner, function and department of the contact partners), as well as the bank details depending on the purpose as well as the required VAT ID number. Should you request the shipping of spare parts to another location, you can inform us about the additional contact data, which we will then also collect and process for this purpose.

We should like to inform you that within the scope of the respective contractual relationship you will have to provide those personal and company data, which are needed for the establishment, the execution and the termination of the contractual relationship or the performance promise and their respective fulfilment or the collection of which we are legally obliged.

We will erase your personal data as soon as they are no longer needed for the above-mentioned purposes or when you have made use of your right of objection. At the end of the contractual relationship, your personal data will be retained, as long as we are legally obliged to retain them. This is regularly the result of legal proof and obligations to retention, which are regulated, among other things, in the German Commercial Code (HGB) and the German Fiscal Code (AO). The retention periods after this time amount to up to ten years. Besides, it can happen, that personal data are stored for the future, in which demands can be asserted to us.
