III. General information on data processing

1. Scope of processing personal data

In general, we only process the personal data of our users to the extent necessary to provide a functioning website with our content and services. The regular processing of personal data only takes place with the consent of the user. Exceptions include cases where prior consent cannot be technically obtained and where the processing of the data is permitted by law.

2. Legal basis for data processing

Where consent is appropriate for processing personal data, Art. 6 para. (1) sen. (1) lit. (a) GDPR serves as the legal basis to obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of their data.

As for the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract of which the data subject is party, Art. 6 para. (1) sen. (1) lit. (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual activities.

When it is necessary to process personal data in order to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. (1) sen. (1) lit. (c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. (1) sen. (1) lit. (d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If the processing of data is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or that of a third party, and the fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the interest of the former, Art. 6 para. (1) sen. (1) lit. (f) GDPR will serve as the legal basis for the processing of data.

3. Data removal and storage duration

The personal data of the data subject will be erased or restricted as soon as the purpose of its storage has been accomplished. Additional storage may occur if this is provided for by the European or national legislator within the EU regulations, law, or other relevant regulations to which the data controller is subject. Restriction or erasure of the data also takes place when the storage period stipulated by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need to prolong the storage of the data for the purpose of concluding or fulfilling a respective contract.

3. Right to the restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)

You may request the restriction of the processing of your personal data under the following conditions:

  • If you challenge the accuracy of your personal data for a period that enables the data controller to verify the accuracy of your personal data;
  • he processing is unlawful, and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and instead request the restriction of their use instead;
  • he data controller or its representative no longer need the personal data for the purpose of processing, but you need it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims; or
  • If you have objected to the processing pursuant and it is not yet certain whether the legitimate interests of the data controller override your interests.

4. Right to erasure ("Right to be forgotten") (Art. 17 GDPR)

If one of the following reasons applies, you have the right to request the deletion of your personal data without undue delay:

  • Personal data concerning you is no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or processed.
  • You withdraw your consent on which the processing is based pursuant to and where there is no other legal basis for processing the data.

V. Provision of website and creation of log files

1. Description and scope of data processing

Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and relevant information from the computer system of the calling device.

The following data is collected:

  • Browser type and version used
  • The user's operating system
  • The IP address of the user
  • Date and time of access
  • Web pages from which the user’s system accessed our website
  • Web pages accessed by the user’s system through our website
  • Amount of data transferred in each case
  • Browser language

This data is stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.

2. Purpose of data processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary for the delivery of the website to the computer of the user. For this purpose, the user’s IP address must be kept for the duration of the session.

The storage in logfiles is done to ensure the functionality of the website. The data is also used to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our IT systems. An analysis of the data for marketing purposes does not take place.

For the aforementioned purposes, our legitimate interest lies in the processing of data in compliance with Art. 6 para. (1) sen. (1) lit. (f) GDPR.

3. Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and logfiles is Art. 6 para. (1) sen. (1) lit. (f) GDPR.

4. Duration of storage

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose of its collection. The session is complete when the collection of data for the provision of the website is accomplished.

If the data is stored in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond this is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or alienated so that an assignment of the calling client is not possible.

5. Objection and removal

The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of the data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. The user can object to this. Whether the objection is successful is to be determined within the framework of a balancing of interests.

VI. Use of cookies

1. Description, scope and purpose of data processing

2. Legal basis for data processing

The provisions of the Federal Act on Data Protection and the Protection of Privacy in Telecommunications and Digital Services (TDDDG) are relevant for the storage of information in the end user's terminal equipment and/or access to information already stored in the end user's terminal equipment. If the setting and reading of cookies is technically necessary, this is done to ensure the functionality of our website. In this case, the storage of and access to cookies on your terminal equipment is carried out on the basis of § 25 para. (2) no. 2 TDDDG. This storage of and access to the information in your terminal equipment serves to facilitate your use of our website and to be able to offer you our services as you have requested. Some functions of our website also do not work without the use of these cookies and could therefore not be offered. The cookies are generally deleted after the session ends (e.g. logging out or closing the browser) or after the expiry of a specified duration. Information on different storage periods for cookies can be found in the preceding sections of this Privacy Policy.

Insofar as cookies are used that are not technically necessary, this is done on the basis of your express consent, which you can give via the cookie banner. The basis for storing and accessing information in this case is § 25 para. (1) TDDDG in conjunction with Art. 6 para. (1) sen. (1) lit. (a), Art. 7 GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future or subsequently grant it again by configuring your settings for cookies accordingly. Alternatively, you can prevent the storage of cookies by making the appropriate settings in your browser software. Please note that the browser settings you make only affect the browser you are using. If personal data is processed following the storage of and access to the information on your terminal equipment, the provisions of the GDPR are relevant. Information on this can be found in the preceding sections of this Privacy Policy.

This allows the success or failure of online marketing campaigns to be statistically analysed. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, we can recognise whether and when an email was opened by the user and which links in the email were accessed by the data subject.

This personal data is not passed on to third parties.

For more information on the "Inxmail" tool we use, the user can refer to Section XV.  of this Privacy Policy ("Usage of Plugins" subsection "Use of Inxmail").

XIII. Hosting

The website is hosted on servers of a service provider commissioned by us.

Our service provider is: ETES GmbH

The micro website, which you can access via the link leap.gemu-group.com, is hosted for us by an agency at Webflow Inc. Further information on Webflow Inc can be found in Section XVII of this Privacy Policy.

The servers automatically collect and store information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits when you visit the website. The stored information is:

  • Browser type and version
  • Used operating system
  • Referrer URL
  • Hostname of the accessing computer
  • Time and date of the server request
  • IP address of the user's device

This data will not be merged with other data sources. The data is collected on the basis of Art. 6 para. (1) sen. (1) lit. (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of his website - and server log files are therefore recorded.

The server of the website is geographically located in Germany.

XIV. Geotargeting

We use the IP address and other information provided by the user (e.g. the postal code used for registration or ordering) to approach regional target groups (so-called "geotargeting").

The regional target group approach is used, for example, to automatically display regional offers or advertisements that often are more relevant to users. The legal basis for the use of the IP address and any other information provided by the user (e.g. postal code) is Art. 6 para. (1) sen. (1) lit. (f) GDPR, based on our legitimate interest in ensuring a more precise target group approach and thus providing offers and advertising with greater relevance for our users.

Part of the IP address and the additional information provided by the user (e.g. postal code) are merely processed and not stored separately.

You can prevent geotargeting by, for example, using a VPN or proxy server that prevents accurate localisation. In addition, depending on the browser you are using, you can also deactivate a location localisation in the corresponding browser settings (as far as this is supported by the respective browser).

We use geotargeting on our website for the following purposes:

  • Forwarding to the corresponding country/language page

XV. Usage of Plugins

We use plugins for various purposes. The plugins used are listed below:

Use of Google AdWords

1. Scope of processing of personal data

Further information on the collection and storage of data by Google can be found here: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-GB

2. Purpose of data processing
