1. Data collection and processing

We collect and process personal data if you provide it to us when contacting us or via an input form on our website. In addition, we collect and process data that accrue during your use of our website. Your data is processed in accordance with the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), the German Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz) and the German Telemedia Act (Telemediengesetz). Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. In the following, we explain in detail how we collect which data on which legal basis. In addition, we explain what rights you have and how long your data will be stored.

2. Processing of your personal data when you contact us or apply for a job with us

(1) If you provide us with personal data by contacting us, e.g. by e-mail or by entering your data in our contact form, we process your data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) p. 1 b) DS-GVO for the purpose of fulfilling the contract or carrying out pre-contractual measures in response to your request or in accordance with Art. 6 (1) p. 1 f) of the German Data Protection Regulation (DS-GVO) based on our legitimate interest in responding to your request.

(2) If you send us your data and application documents, we process your personal data on the basis of Section 26 BDSG. According to this, the processing of data required in connection with the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship is permissible. Should the data be required for legal prosecution after the conclusion of the application process, if applicable, data processing may be carried out on the basis of the requirements of Art. 6 of the German Data Protection Regulation (DS-GVO), in particular for the purpose of safeguarding legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 f) of the DS-GVO. Our interest then consists in the assertion or defense of claims. In the event of a rejection, your data will be deleted after 6 months.

3. Processing of personal data for and in the customer backend

We offer the backend (my.contagt.com and editor.contagt.com) on our website, with which our customers can maintain the data of their building. For this purpose, we create a log-in for the e-mail address we have received from the customer, where a user name/password combination is stored. We process this data for the purposes of implementing the contractual relationship with our customer and thus on the basis of Art. 6 (1) p. 1 b) DS-GVO. The customer is solely responsible for personal data that the customer uploads to the backend. We are bound by the instructions of our customers regarding this processing of personal data by means of an order processing agreement.

4. Consent to receive our newsletter; right of revocation

If you register for our newsletter, we process your e-mail address with your consent exclusively for the purpose of sending the newsletter. In addition, we store your IP address in order to be able to prove your consent. After submitting your e-mail address, you will receive a confirmation e-mail in which you must click on a link in order to actually receive the newsletter. This confirmation e-mail is necessary so that we can verify you as the owner of the e-mail address entered. Only after clicking on this link your newsletter subscription becomes effective.

Mit dem Newsletter erhalten Sie Informationen zur contagt-Indoor-Navigation (aktuelle Angebote, Aktionen und Events).

At the end of each newsletter mail you will find a link that allows you to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time. You can also unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time by contacting us by e-mail atnewsletter@contagt.com. The revocation of your consent by unsubscribing from the newsletter has no effect on the lawfulness of the data processing until the time of revocation. If you unsubscribe from the newsletter, the data stored by us for the purpose of sending the newsletter will be deleted, unless the deletion conflicts with data protection retention obligations.

If you do not confirm your registration for the newsletter subscription within 24 hours (see above), your data will be deleted. You can then no longer use the confirmation link, but must re-enter your data for a newsletter subscription.

5. Processing of data by means of cookies and log files

Our website uses so-called cookies on the basis of Art. 6 (1) p. 1 f) DS-GVO to enable certain functions of the website for you, but also to be able to analyze your use of the website. A cookie is a file that stores certain information on the user’s access device (PC, tablet, smartphone, etc.). If our website is accessed by the user’s corresponding device, the server of our website can analyze the information stored in the cookie in various ways. Cookies can be used to collect statistical data on website usage.

You can allow or disable cookies via the settings in your browser. Please also take note of the information in section 6 of this privacy policy.

Our website also uses so-called log files on the basis of Art. 6 (1) p. 1 f) DS-GVO, in which access data is stored each time a page is called up. The data record stored in this process contains the following data: Names of the pages accessed, the browser used, the operating system and the requesting domain, date as well as time of access, search engines used and names of downloaded files.

We use the log data (logs) anonymously, i.e. without attribution or references to your person, for statistical evaluations, e.g. to find out on which days and at which times the offers of our websites are particularly popular and how much data volume is generated on our websites. In addition, the log files enable us to detect errors if necessary, e.g. faulty links or program errors. In this way, we can use the log files for the further development of our websites. We do not link the page views and usage stored in the server log to individual persons at any time. This data is deleted after 60 days at the latest. We reserve the right to use data from log files if, based on certain facts, there is a suspicion that users are using our websites and/or our services in a manner that is illegal or in breach of contract. In the event of such suspicion, we may also have to temporarily store IP addresses, which we will, however, delete immediately if we no longer need them. We have a legitimate interest in the temporary storage because of the protection of our website against attacks and misuse.

6. Encryption

If you are able to enter personal data on our website, this data is transmitted via the Internet using SSL encryption. We secure our website and other systems by technical and organizational measures against loss, destruction, access, modification or distribution of your data by unauthorized persons.

7. Categories of recipients of data

Service providers and vicarious agents used by us in connection with the website, e.g. host providers, agencies and IT service providers, may have access to your personal data. However, insofar as these service providers and vicarious agents act on our behalf, they only act in accordance with instructions and are contractually obligated by us accordingly.

8. Your rights

Pursuant to Art. 15 DS-GVO, you have the right to request information free of charge about the personal data that has been stored about you. In accordance with Art. 16, 17 and 18 of the GDPR, you also have the right to correct inaccurate data and to block and delete your personal data. You are also entitled, under the conditions set out in Art. 20 DS-GVO, to receive the personal data concerning you that has been stored in a structured, common and machine-readable format and to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance from us.

In addition, pursuant to Art. 21 (1) DS-GVO, you are entitled to object to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) p. 1 e) or f) DS-GVO, including profiling, on grounds relating to your particular situation. If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your data for such marketing, including profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing, in accordance with Art. 21(2) DS-GVO.

We will fulfill your aforementioned rights to the extent that the legal requirements for the assertion of the rights are met.

Any requests regarding your personal data should be addressed to the contact details provided at the beginning of this privacy policy, but also in the imprint of our website.

Every data subject also has the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority about the processing of data by us.

9. Duration of storage and routine deletion

Unless expressly stated in this privacy policy, we process and store personal data only for the period of time necessary to achieve the purpose of processing or if this has been provided for in laws or regulations to which we are subject.

If the purpose of storage no longer applies or if a legally prescribed storage period expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions.
