PRIVACY STATEMENT
We are very pleased about your interest in our company. Data protection is extremely important to the owner of SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG. Using the SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG website is basically possible without providing any personal data. However, if an affected person wishes to use our company's special services through our website, personal data processing may be required. If the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally seek the consent of the data subject.
Processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address or telephone number of a data subject, is always performed in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in accordance with the country-specific data protection provisions applicable to SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG. Through this privacy statement, our company seeks to inform the public about the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed of their rights under this privacy statement.
As the data processing controller, SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible for personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, every person concerned is free to submit personal data to us in alternative ways, for example by telephone.
Changes and updates to the privacy policy
We ask you to inform yourself regularly about the content of our privacy policy. We will adjust the privacy policy as soon as the changes require it. We will notify you as soon as the changes require your participation (eg consent) or other individual notification.

d) Restriction of processing
‘restriction of processing’ means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.
e) Profiling

f) Pseudonymisation
‘pseudonymisation’ means the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

4. Collection of general data and information
The SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG website collects a series of general data and information each time the website is accessed by an affected person or an automated system. This general data and information is stored in the log files of the server. The data that may be recorded includes (1) browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-web pages, which are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Internet Protocol address (IP address), (7) the accessing system's internet service provider (ISP); and (8) other similar data and information used in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using this general data and information, SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG draws no conclusions about the person concerned.

SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG therefore evaluates this anonymously collected data and information statistically and with the goal of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately ensure the best possible level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by an affected person.
5. Contact via the website

Such personal data, voluntarily transmitted by an individual to the person responsible for processing, is stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. This personal data is not disclosed to third parties.
6. Routine deletion and blocking of personal data
The person responsible for processing processes and stores the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of the storage or as provided for in the law or regulation by the European directive and regulatory body or any other legislator, which the person responsible for processing is subject to.

7. Rights of the person concerned

In addition, the data subject has a right to information as to whether personal data has been transmitted to a third-party country or to an international organisation. If that is the case, then the data subject has the right to obtain information about the appropriate guarantees in connection with the transfer.
If an affected person wishes to make use of this right to information, they can contact an employee of the person responsible for processing at any time.

d) Right to deletion (right to be forgotten)
Any person affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European directive and regulatory body to require the responsible person to immediately delete the personal data concerning him/her, provided that one of the following reasons is satisfied and the processing is not required:
• The personal data has been collected for such purposes or otherwise processed for which they are no longer necessary.
• The data subject withdraws the consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR or Article 9 (2) (a) of the GDPR and lacks any other legal basis for the processing.
• The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21 (1) of the GDPR and there are no legitimate reasons for the processing or the data subject objects to the processing in accordance with Article 21 (2) of the GDPR.
• The personal data was processed unlawfully.
• The deletion of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation under European Union law or national law of member states to which the person responsible is subject.
• The personal data was collected in relation to information society services offered pursuant to Article 8 (1) of the GDPR.
If one of the above reasons is correct and a data subject wishes to arrange for the deletion of personal data held by SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG, they may, at any time, contact an employee of the person responsible for processing. The employee of SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG will arrange that the deletion request is fulfilled immediately.
If the personal data has been made public by SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG and if our company is responsible for deleting personal data as the person responsible according to Art. 17 (1) of the GDPR, SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG will take appropriate measures, also of a technical nature, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, to inform other data controllers processing the published personal data that the data subject has requested that these other data controllers delete all links to such personal data or copies or replications of such personal data, if the processing is not necessary. The employee of SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG will arrange the necessary steps in individual cases.
e) Right to restriction of processing
Any person affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European directive and regulatory body to require the responsible person to restrict the processing if one of the following conditions applies:

• The processing is unlawful, the data subject refuses to delete the personal data and instead requests the restriction of the use of personal data.
• The responsible party no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but the data subject requires them to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
• The data subject has objected to the processing in accordance with Article 21 (1) of the GDPR and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate reasons of the responsible party outweigh those of the data subject.
If one of the above conditions applies and a data subject wishes to arrange for the limitation of personal data held by SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG, they may, at any time, contact an employee of the person responsible for processing. The employee of the SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG will immediately initiate the restriction of processing.
f) Right to data portability
Any person affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European directive and regulatory body to obtain the personal data concerning him/her provided to a responsible party by the data subject in a structured, common and machine-readable format. They also have the right to transfer this information to another person without hindrance by the person responsible, to whom the personal data was given, provided that the processing is based on the consent pursuant to Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR or Article 9 (2) (a) of the GDPR or of a contract pursuant to Article 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR and the processing is carried out using automated procedures, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task which is in the public interest or in the exercise of public authority delegated to the responsible party.
Furthermore, in exercising their right to data portability under Article 20 (1) of the GDPR, the data subject has the right to effect that the personal data are transmitted directly from one person to another, insofar as this is technically feasible and provided that this does not affect the rights and freedoms of other persons.
In order to assert the right of data portability, the data subject may at any time contact an employee of SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG.
g) Right to objection
Any person affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European directive and regulatory body has the right to object at any time, for reasons of their own particular circumstances, to the processing of personal data concerning them pursuant to Article 6 (1) (e) or (f) of the GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on this provision.
SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG does not process the personal data in the event of an objection, unless we can prove compelling legitimate reasons for the processing that outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing is for the purposes of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.
If SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG processes personal data in order to operate direct mail advertising, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for the purpose of such advertising. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is associated with such direct mail. If the data subject objects to SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG processing for direct marketing purposes, SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.
In addition, the data subject has the right, for reasons arising from his/her particular situation, to object to the processing of personal data relating to him/her, which is carried out by SchäferRolls GmbH & Co.

In order to exercise the right of objection, the data subject may directly contact any SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG employee or other employee. The data subject is also free to exercise his right of objection, in connection with the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.
h) Automated decisions in individual cases including profiling
Any person affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right conferred by the European directive and regulatory body not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing (including profiling), which has a legal effect on it or, in a similar manner, significantly affects it, unless the decision (1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is permitted by European Union or Member State legislation to which the responsible party is subject and where such legislation contains appropriate measures to safeguard the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, or (3) with the express consent of the data subject.
If the decision (1) is required for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the person concerned and the person responsible or (2) it takes place with the express consent of the data subject, SchäferRolls GmbH & Co. KG shall take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person by the responsible party, to express his/her own position and to challenge the decision.
If the data subject wishes to assert its rights regarding automated decision-making, they can contact an employee of the party responsible for processing at any time.
i) Right to revoke a data protection consent
Any person affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European directive and regulatory body to revoke consent to the processing of personal data at any time.
If the data subject wishes to assert its rights to revoke a consent, they can contact an employee of the party responsible for processing at any time.
j) Right of appeal to the competent supervisory authority (appeal office)
For complaints, suggestions or questions, please contact our data protection officer: datenschutz@schaeferrolls.com In the case of violations of data protection law, the person concerned has the right of appeal to a supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority for data protection issues is the state data protection officer of the federal state in which our company is based. A list of the data protection officers as well as their contact data can be taken from the following link:
https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html
8. Legal basis of processing
Article 6 (I) (a) of the GDPR provides our company with a legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a contract of which the data subject is a contracting party, as is the case, for example, in processing operations necessary for the supply of goods or the provision of any other service or consideration, the processing is based on Article 6 (I) (b) of the GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of enquiries regarding our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, such as the fulfilment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Article 6 (I) (c) of the GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be required to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our premises were injured and his or her name, age, health insurance or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. In that case, the processing would be based on Article 6 (I) (d) of the GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could also be based on Article 6 (I) (f) of the GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the above legal bases are based on this legal basis if processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party, unless the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the person concerned prevail. Such processing operations are particularly allowed to us because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator, which holds the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the responsible party (recital 47, sentence 2, GDPR).
9. Legitimate interests in processing that are being pursued by the responsible party or a third party
If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 (I) (f) of the GDPR, our legitimate interest is the performance of our business for the benefit of all of our employees and our shareholders.
10. Duration for which the personal data will be stored
The criterion for the duration of storing personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After the deadline, the corresponding data will be routinely deleted, if it is no longer required to fulfil the contract or to initiate a contract.
11. Statutory or contractual regulations for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision
We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information about the contracting party). Occasionally, it may be necessary for the conclusion of a contract that an affected person provides us with personal data that must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is required to provide us with personal information when our company enters into a contract with him/her. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the person concerned could not be finalised. Prior to any personal data being provided by the person concerned, the person concerned must contact one of our employees. Our employee will inform the individual on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of the personal data is legally or contractually required or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data, and what the consequences of the non-provision of the personal data are.
12. Existence of automated decision-making
As a responsible company we refrain from automatic decision-making or profiling.
As of January 2019
