In principle, we collect and process personal data in accordance with the following legal bases:
a. Consent pursuant to Article 6 (1) (a) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). “Consent” of the data subject means any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by other clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

Necessity for the performance of a contract or in order to take preparatory steps pursuant to Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR, i.e. the data is necessary in order for us to be able to fulfil the contractual obligations towards you or we require the data in order to prepare to enter into a contract with you.

1.3 Rights of data subjects

Your rights in respect of data processing by us are as follows:
a. The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority pursuant to Article 13 (2) (d) GDPR and Article 14 (2) (e) GDPR

1.4 Data deletion and storage duration

The data subjects’ personal data will be erased or made unavailable as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Data may additionally be stored if this is provided for by European or national legislators under EU regulations, legal acts or other stipulations to which the controller is subject. The data will also be made unavailable or erased if a storage period prescribed by the specified regulations expires, unless continued storage of the data is required in order to enter into or carry out a contract.
To the necessary extent, we will process your personal data for the duration of our business relationship, which for instance also extends to the initiation and execution of a contract.

German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch, BGB), but in certain cases may also be up to thirty years. We will delete the data on expiry of the retention and documentation obligations as well as the applicable limitation periods. Log files and cookies will be deleted within the periods specified below.

1.5 Security of processing

We have implemented technical and organisational security measures (TOMs) that are both adequate and comply with the state of the art. As a result, the data processed by us is protected from chance or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction and unauthorised access.

Where we use content, tools or sundry resources of other companies (hereinafter referred to collectively as “Third-Party Providers”) and their specified headquarters are located in a third country, it can be assumed that data will be transferred to the countries of the Third-Party Providers’ headquarters. We will only transmit personal data to third countries if an appropriate level of data protection is in place, the Users have consented or another form of statutory authorisation applies.

3 Processing for the purpose of executing our business processes

3.1 Direct marketing

If you have provided your consent to us, we will regularly notify you by email about new products and services as well as construction projects. We use your name and your email address for this purpose. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (1) (a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with future effect, e.g. via the link at the end of each email.
Our newsletter will only be sent via email with your prior, express consent in accordance with the double opt-in principle: on registering for the newsletter on our Website, you will receive an email in which you are asked to confirm your newsletter registration. This ensures that no third party has been fraudulently using your data.
During the registration for the newsletter, we further obtain your consent for newsletter tracking for the purpose of personalised advertising and market research performed by us. Using what are known as tracking pixels or web beacons and links, each of which is linked to an individual ID, we collect the following personal tracking information in conjunction with the use of our newsletters:
• Opening the newsletter, clicking the links contained therein, sending a form on our Website after clicking a link contained in the newsletter (as well as the time when these actions were performed)
• Type of end device used if you click on images or links in the newsletter
• Behaviour on our Website if you access this via a link in our newsletter (as well as the time when these actions were performed)
• The place where access was made if you click on images or links in the newsletter (by matching your IP address, although we do not store this)
We save this data in your user profile, which is matched to the data entered when you register for the newsletter. We use this data to analyse and optimise our email marketing as well as for purposes of personalised advertising and market research. This enables us to provide you with personal information on products, services and offers that are of particular interest to you via our newsletter. You can revoke your consent to this data processing at any time with future effect by unsubscribing from the newsletter. It is not (currently) technically possible to deactivate newsletter tracking in isolation. We delete the tracking data when you unsubscribe from our newsletter. This has no bearing on data stored by us for the other purposes.

3.2 Advertising to existing customers

If you have bought services from us in the past, we may notify you about similar services (especially new construction projects) by email or letter, provided you have not objected to this.
The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (1) (f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in direct advertising (recital 47 GDPR). You may object to your email address and postal address being used for advertising purposes at any time at no extra cost with future effect.
