Data protection is an important topic for us

Protecting your personal data is therefore a particular concern of ours. Your personal data, which you electronically transfer to the BAUER GROUP when using our website, such as names, address, e-mail address or other personal information, is collected and processed in compliance with the provisions applicable under data protection law.
In this privacy policy, you can find more information about the data collected by us and the purposes of our processing of such data. Furthermore, we inform you about the rights you have due to the described data collection and processing. The legal basis here is the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"), whose regulations have been applicable since 25/05/2018. It does not only extend the already existing rights to data protection and security, but also improves the protection of personal data.

The BAUER GROUP is a globally operating group of companies which is comprised of many national branch offices and subsidiaries. Due to our international web presence and the global nature of our business activities, your electronically collected personal data may be transported within the BAUER GROUP across geographic borders to countries with different data protection provisions.

Responsible party
The responsible party for the collection, processing and use of your personal data within the meaning of Art. 4 No. 7 GDPR and other provisions under data protection law is BAUER COMP Holding GmbH:

Collection and Retention of Personal Data
Acc. to Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR, personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ("data subject"). This includes both personal information used, such as identification features (e.g. name, address and date of birth), external features or inner states, but also factual information, such as financial circumstances and ownership structures and all other relationships of the data subject to third parties and his or her environment.
Use of Our Website
Purely Informational Website Use
When you use our website, information is collected about you, without this requiring any direct contact or any registration. In this context, we automatically gather information via our IT system about your usages behaviour and your interaction with us and registered data concerning your computer or mobile device. This especially relates to the following technical data, which is transferred by your browser to our server:
– IP address of the requesting computer;
– date and time of the request;
– time zone difference to the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT);
– content of the request (specific web page);
– access status / HTTP status code;
– respective transferred data volume;
– website from which the request originates;
– browser;
– operating system and its interface;
– language and version of the browser software.
The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 No. 1 sentence 1 letter f GDPR. We collect the aforementioned data, since it is technically required to ensure error-free provisioning of the website and to enable us to display our website to you. This also constitutes our legitimate interest.

Use of Cookies
In addition, cookies are used when our website is accessed. Cookies are text files which are placed on the hard drive of your computer when our website is visited and are stored by your browser. Cookies cannot execute programmes or transmit viruses to your computer. Their purpose is to make the website more user-friendly and effective overall. Moreover, they serve to identify the user, contain information about websites accessed and transmit such information to the entity by which the cookie was placed.
Our legitimate interest in using cookies in the sense of Art. 6 No. 1 sentence 1 letter f GDPR is to make our website more user-friendly, effective, stable and secure. Based on the use of cookies, we are only provided with pseudonymised information on the extent to which you use our website, especially the website areas visited.
This website uses the following types of cookies, the scope and functionality of which are explained below: (1) transient cookies and (2) persistent cookies.
Transient cookies are automatically erased when you close the browser. These include, in particular, session cookies. They retain a session ID, with which various requests from your browser can be assigned to the common session. This will allow your computer to be recognised if you return to our website. Session cookies are erased once you close the browser.
Persistent cookies are erased automatically after a pre-defined period, which can be different depending on the cookie. You can erase the cookies in the security settings of your browser at any time.
You can configure your browser setting according to your preferences and refuse acceptance of third-party cookies or all cookies, for example. Please note that, in this case, you may not be able to use all of the functions of this website.

Use of Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics also uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the US and retained there.
Where IP anonymisation is enabled on this website, however, your IP address is abbreviated beforehand by Google in member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the US and abbreviated there. Google uses this information on our behalf to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports about the website activities and to provide other services relating to the use of the website and the Internet to the website operator.
The IP address transmitted from your browser as part of Google Analytics is not amalgamated with other data from Google. By setting your browser software accordingly, you can prevent cookies from being retained; however, we point out that you may not have full access to all website functions in this case. In addition, you can prevent the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (incl. your IP address) from being transmitted to and being processed by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
This website uses Google Analytics with the extension "_anonymizeIp()". As a result, IP addresses are processed in shortened form, thus excluding reference to a particular individual. Where the data collected about you is assigned a personal reference, it is immediately excluded, and the personal data thus erased immediately.
We use Google Analytics to analyse and make regular improvements to the use of our website. With the statistics that we obtain, we can improve our offering and make it more interesting for you as user. This also constitutes our legitimate interest in the use of Google Analytics. The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6 No. 1 sentence 1 letter f GDPR.
For exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the US, Google has agreed to comply with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

  3. General data processing on the social media platforms
    1. Data processing for market research and advertising
      As a rule, personal data are processed on the company site for market research and advertising purposes. For this purpose a cookie is set in your browser which enables the respective provider to recognise when you visit a website. User profiles can be created using the collected data. These profiles are used to place advertisements inside and outside the platform which it is presumed match your interests. Furthermore, data can be stored in the user profiles independently of the devices used by you. This is regularly the case when you are a member of the respective platforms and are logged in to these.
    2. Data processing when making contact
      We ourselves collect personal data if you make contact with us for example by way of a contact form or a messenger service, such as Facebook Messenger. Which data are collected is dependent on your information and on the contact details you have provided or released. These details are stored by us so that we can process the enquiry and if necessary address follow-up questions. Under no circumstances will we pass on the data to third parties without your consent. The legal basis for processing the data is our legitimate interest in addressing your issue/concern pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR and if necessary Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR if your enquiry is aimed at concluding a contract. Your data will be erased after your enquiry has been finally and conclusively processed provided there are no conflicting statutory obligations to keep records. We assume final and conclusive processing if it can be inferred from the circumstances that the relevant facts are conclusively and finally clarified.
    3. Data processing for contract processing
      If your contact via a social network or another platform is aimed at concluding with us a contract for the supply of goods or for the provision of services, we will process your data to perform the contract or to carry out precontractual measures and to provide the desired services. The legal basis for processing your data is in this case Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. Your data will be erased when they are no longer required to perform the contract or it is certain that the precontractual measures do not result in the conclusion of a contract conforming to the purpose of the original contact. Please note, however, that it may be necessary even after the contract is concluded to store personal data of our contracting parties in order to meet contractual or legal obligations.
    4. Data processing on the basis of consent
      If you are asked by the respective providers of the platforms for consent to processing for a specific purpose, the legal basis of processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a., Art. 7 GDPR. Consent that has been given can be withdrawn at any time with future effect.
3. Forwarding of data and recipients
  Please note that the use of social media platforms may give rise to data processing outside the EU and the European Economic Area in such a way that the European data protection level cannot absolutely be guaranteed. The mentioned social media providers based in the USA are certified for the US-European "Privacy Shield" data protection agreement, which guarantees compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.
  
  We have no influence on the processing and handling of your personal data by the respective providers. Likewise, we are unable to provide any information on this matter. For further information, please refer to the privacy policy of the respective provider:

Use of YouTube Videos
We have embedded YouTube videos in our website which are stored at http://www.YouTube.com and can be played directly on our website. (Image) links to these videos have been embedded in our website. No data about you as a user is transferred to YouTube if you do not play the videos. The data specified in the following paragraph is not transferred before you play the videos. We have no control over such data transfer.
By playing the videos on our website, YouTube receives information that you have accessed the relevant sub-page of our website. Moreover, the data specified in the "Collection and Retention of Personal Data" section of this policy is transferred. This happens regardless of whether a YouTube user account exists into which you are logged in or whether no user account exists. If you are logged into Google, your data is associated directly with your account. If you do not want the data to be associated with your YouTube profile, you must log out before activating the button. YouTube retains your data as user profiles and uses it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the custom configuration of its website.

LinkedIn Analytics / LinkedIn Insight
We use the conversion tracking technology and the retargeting function of LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland on our website. This enables us to play personalized ads on LinkedIn to visitors of our website. For this purpose, a cookie, LinkedIn Insight-Tag, is set in your browser with a validity of 120 days, which enables LinkedIn to recognize you if you visit this website and are logged into your LinkedIn account at the same time. LinkedIn uses this data to generate anonymous reports on the performance of the advertisements as well as information on website interaction. The information generated by the cookie is usually transferred to a server in the USA and stored there.
The legal basis for the processing is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO.
Since a transfer of personal data to the USA takes place, further protection mechanisms are required to ensure the level of data protection of the DSGVO. To ensure this, we have agreed standard data protection clauses with the provider in accordance with Art. 46 (2) lit. c DSGVO. These oblige the recipient of the data in the USA to process the data in accordance with the level of protection in Europe. In cases where this cannot be ensured even by this contractual extension, we endeavor to obtain additional regulations and commitments from the recipient in the USA.
You can deactivate LinkedIn Insight conversion tracking and interest-based personalized advertising by opting out at the following link: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls/retargeting-opt-out. Further information on data protection at LinkedIn can be found at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.

Data Forwarding to Third Parties
In general, we use your personal data only within our company. If and insofar as we engage third parties to fulfil contracts, these will only receive personal data to the extent necessary for providing the corresponding service. This is the case where the data must be forwarded to partner companies due to your order, your request or to meet a contractual obligation. Such partner companies may also be located outside the EU.
Where we outsource certain parts of data processing ("commissioned data processing"), we oblige the contracted data processor by contract to only use personal data in accordance with the provisions of data protection law and to guarantee the protection of the rights of the data subject.
Any transfer of data to bodies or persons outside the EU, other than in cases as listed in this policy, does not take place and is not intended.

This does not apply only where we are obliged to retain data for longer periods acc. to s. 1 of point (c) of Art. 6(1) GDPR due to retention and documentation obligations under tax and commercial law (from the German Commercial Code, the German Criminal Code or the Fiscal Code of Germany). In this case, your personal data is erased after ten years at the latest. Your personal data will be further retained only where you have given your voluntary consent acc. to s. 1 of point (a) of Art. 6(1) GDPR.
Furthermore, the general retention period of your personal data may exceptionally be up to 30 years where this is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
