You can reach our data protection officer at the postal address mentioned above and also by email at: datenschutz@schukat.com

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

If we obtain the consent of a data subject for the purposes of processing their personal data, Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR applies as the legal basis.
If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, Art. 6(1)(b) of the GDPR applies as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations necessary for carrying out certain steps prior to entering into a contract.
If processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6(1)(c) of the GDPR applies as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person, Art. 6(1)(d) of the GDPR applies as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR applies as the legal basis of the processing.

3. Data deletion and duration of retention

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted as soon as the purposes for processing the data are no longer applicable. Personal data may also be retained if such retention is provided for by European or national law in legally valid directives, laws or other regulations to which the controller is subject. Blocking or deletion of the data is also carried out if a retention period stipulated by European or national law expires, unless it is necessary to continue to store the data for the performance of a contract or to fulfil a contract.

4. Creation of log files

Every time you access our website, our system automatically records data and information transmitted to us by your computer.
The following data are collected:

Date and time of the access
User’s IP address
Product and version information of the user’s browser (user-agent)
The user’s operating system
Content from cookies set by www.schukat.com
Websites visited
Quantity in bytes of data sent
Status and the websites from which the user came to our website (referrer)

These data are also stored in the log files of our system. However, the data are not stored together with other personal data of the user.
We evaluate these log files only for statistical purposes. The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to allow our website to be delivered to the user’s computer. For this purpose, the user’s IP address has to be stored for the duration of the session.
The legal basis for the temporary storage of this data is Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest in the temporary storage in log files arises from the need to optimise our website by analysing user behaviour and server load relative to day and time of day. In addition, we can use the log files to identify possible errors, for example broken links or programming mistakes, and thus use the logged data to improve and further develop our website.
The data will be erased in accordance with Art. 17(1)(a) of the GDPR as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purposes for which they were collected. If the data has been collected to make the website available to a user, this applies as soon as the session has ended. If the data has been stored in log files, it is erased after a maximum of ten days. Retention beyond this period is possible. In this case, the user’s IP address will be erased or altered so that it is no longer possible to assign the data to a particular client.
Both the collection of data for the purpose of providing the site to users and the storage of data in log files are essential for the operation of the website. This can therefore not be contested by users.

10. Cookies

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are saved in or by the internet browser on the user’s computer system. If a user calls up a website, a cookie may be stored in the user’s operating system. This cookie contains a distinctive character sequence that enables unambiguous identification of the browser when the website is visited.
We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. On the one hand, we use session cookies. These expire automatically once the browser is closed. The session cookies store a session ID, by which different queries from your browser are allocated to a joint session. In this way, your computer can be recognized again when you return to our website. We use session cookies to optimise our site’s user-friendliness and to analyse user behaviour.
On the other hand, we also use WK cookies. With WK cookies, the shopping basket user is identified so that their shopping basket can be restored.
In the cookies, we store and transfer the following information: session ID (guest), server token (session ID) of the webserver group (user), list of product groups called up, current shopping basket status, old shopping basket status, status of watch lists and enquiry lists, key for file uploads.
The point of using cookies is to make using the website easier for users. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies.

10.1 Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (''Google''), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Analytics uses ''cookies,'' which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website will be transmitted to and stored on a Google server in Ireland.
When using Google Analytics, we use what is known as IP masking via ''_anonymizeIp()'' which results in the truncating of the last octet of the IP address. Once the data is received in the data collection network, it is anonymised before it is saved, and any reference to personal data is excluded. Your IP address will thus be shortened beforehand within member states of the European Union and also in other states that are party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
Google uses the information generated by the cookies to evaluate your interaction with the website and to create reports on website activities. With the help of the statistics we are able to optimise our product range and make it more interesting for you as a user. Google states that the truncated IP address ensures the security of the service and provides information about the origin of users.
We cannot exclude the possibility that Google may also transfer information obtained from cookies to the USA and store it there. For those cases in which Google transfers personal data to the USA, Google LLC has subjected itself to the EU-US Privacy Shield, which ensures compliance with the level of data protection applicable in the EU; this certification can be viewed at: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active.
The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is your consent in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
You may prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting the applicable settings in your browser software; please note, however, that if you do so you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and its transfer to and processing by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
The retention period for data at user and event level is 14 months, after which the data is deleted.
Further information on data protection at Google can be found at: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

10.2 Google AdWords Conversion

We use Google AdWords, an advertising service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. The purpose of Google AdWords is the promotion of our website by displaying relevant advertisements on the websites of third-parties and in search engine results of Google as well as third-party advertisements on our own website.
Google Adwords is used to display target-group-oriented advertisements in the Google search engine. This enables us to promote our products to potential customers in a targeted and interest-oriented way and to measure the success of individual advertising measures.
The display of such advertising is accomplished via so-called "Ad Servers." In this regard, parameters in the form of cookies are utilised, and these can be used to measure the success of the advertising material employed by displaying advertisements or clicks by the user. When you access our website via a Google advertisement, Google Ads will store a cookie on your end-user device. This cookie usually contains a unique cookie ID, the number of ad impressions per page impression, last impressions, as well as information about whether the user no longer wishes to be addressed (opt-out cookie).
This information enables Google to recognise the internet browser in use, and we can see that the user has clicked on the advertisement and been redirected accordingly. No processing of personal data takes place through the use of these advertising measures by us. All we receive from Google is a statistical evaluation of the success of our advertisements, which we can use to evaluate the effectiveness of our advertising measures.
The legal basis for the use of Google AdWords is your consent in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
Please note at this point that Google may be able to assign the website visit to your Google account if you are registered with a Google service, and in connection with this can obtain and store information about your IP address.
We cannot exclude the possibility that Google may also transfer information obtained from cookies to the USA and store it there. For those cases in which Google transfers personal data to the USA, Google LLC has subjected itself to the EU-US Privacy Shield, which ensures compliance with the level of data protection applicable in the EU; this certification can be viewed at: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active.
As we have no influence over further data processing by Google, please be aware that you can refuse your consent to the display of personalised ads in the cookie settings of your browser software.
Please note that you may not be able to use all functions of our site to their full extent if you deactivate these settings.
The retention period for the data processed is 14 months, after which it is deleted.
Further information on data protection and processing by Google can be found at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

11. Google reCAPTCHA

In connection with our newsletter function, a service from Google Inc. (“Google”) called ''Invisible reCAPTCHA” is used. The aim of reCAPTCHA is to insure that registration for our newsletter is actually done by a human being and that misuse by machine-generated entries is excluded as much as possible. To achieve this, Google processes a range of information, including the IP address of the end-user device used to register, but also other information that can determine the presence of human actions. This processing takes place both within Europe and in the USA, the latter on the basis of what is known as Privacy Shield. Google states that it do not conflate the IP addresses transferred by Invisible reCAPTCHA with data from other Google services. In this regard, Google’s data protection regulations, available at https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/, apply.
The data processing described above is carried out both on the basis of your consent to be included in our newsletter distribution list (Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR) and on the basis of a general weighing of interests within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. In this regard, the protection of our IT systems, in particular ensuring the functionality of our website, is to be seen as a legitimate interest within the meaning of the law. You can revoke your consent for your inclusion in our newsletter distribution list free of charge at any time with future effect. The permissibility of the data processing carried out prior to your revocation for the purpose described above remains unaffected by your revocation.
In addition, we advise that, with every new registration for our newsletter, the processing described above takes place. If you do not agree with this as a matter of principle, unfortunately you cannot use our newsletter function.
The statements made in this privacy statement about your general right to object apply mutatis mutandis.
The legal basis for the processing of your personal data as part of the reCAPTCHA procedure is Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interests arise from the aim of protecting our website from misuse and malware.
Your personal data will be erased in accordance with Art. 17(1)(a) of the GDPR as soon as they are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected.
Details concerning your right to object can be found in point 18 of this privacy statement.
You will find more information about the protection of your personal data by Google at the following link: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en

12. Social Plug-ins

On our website, we offer you the possibility to use social plug-ins from the following companies:

Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA; http://www.facebook.com/policy.php; further information about data collection: http://www.facebook.com/help/186325668085084 and http://www.facebook.com/about/privacy

“Tweet” button from Twitter Inc., 795 Folsom St., Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA; https://twitter.com/privacy

“+1” button from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/?hl=en

Fundamentally, when you visit our website, no personal data is initially passed on to any of the plug-in providers. You can recognize the provider of a plug-in by the marking on the box, by the first letter of its name, or by the logo. We offer you the option of communicating with the provider directly via the button. Only when you click on the marked field and activate the plug-in does the plug-in provider receive the information that you have called up the corresponding webpage from our online offerings. When you activate the plug-in, personal data about you is transmitted to the respective plug-in provider and stored there (among US providers, this storage takes place in the USA). Because the plug-in provider uses cookies in particular to carry out the data collection, we recommend that you erase all cookies using your browser’s security settings before clicking on the greyed-out boxes.

We have no influence over the data recorded or the data-processing operations, nor do we know the full extent of the data collection, the aims of the processing, or the periods for which the data is stored. We also have no information concerning erasure of the data collected by the plug-in provider.

The plug-in provider stores the information collected about you as a usage profile and uses this for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the demand-oriented presentation of their website. Such an evaluation takes place in particular (also for users not logged in) for the presentation of demand-oriented advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the establishment of this user profile. If you wish to exercise this right, please contact the respective plug-in provider. With the plug-ins, we offer you the possibility to interact with the social networks and other users so that we can improve our range of offerings and make this range more interesting to you as a user. The legal basis for the use of plug-ins is Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest in the use of plug-ins arises from our desire to make cross-platform communication available to our users and thus to create a positive user experience.

The transmission of data takes place regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider or whether you are logged in. If you are logged into the plug-in provider, your data gathered on our website is assigned directly to your account with the plug-in provider. If you click on the activated button and, for example, link to the page, the plug-in provider also records this information in your user account and publicly shares this with your contacts. We recommend that you log out regularly from social networks after use, in particular before activating the button; in this way, you can avoid any assignment to your profile with the plug-in provider.

More information about the extent and purpose of data collection and their processing by the plug-in provider is available in the privacy statement of each provider at the addresses listed above. There you can also find more information concerning your rights and the possibilities for setting preferences to protect your private sphere.
