data protection statement

Thank you for visiting our website. In the following, we would like to inform you about the handling of your data in accordance with Art. 13 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Person responsible

Responsible for the data processing described below is the company named in the Imprint named location.

Usage data

When you visit our website, so-called usage data is temporarily analysed on our web server as a log for statistical purposes in order to improve the quality of our website. This data record consists of

• the name and address of the requested content,
• the date and time of the request,
• the amount of data transferred,
• the access status (content transferred, content not found),
• the description of the web browser and operating system used,
• the referral link, which indicates from which page you came to ours,
• the IP address of the requesting computer, which is shortened so that a personal reference can no longer be established.

The aforementioned log data is only analysed in anonymised form.

Storage of the IP address for security purposes

In addition, we store the full IP address transmitted by your web browser for a strictly earmarked period of seven days in the interest of recognising, limiting and eliminating attacks on our websites. After this period has expired, we delete or anonymise the IP address. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

Data security

We take technical and organisational measures to protect your data from unauthorised access as comprehensively as possible. We use an encryption process on our websites. Your data is transmitted from your computer to our server and vice versa via the Internet using TLS encryption. You can usually recognise this by the fact that the lock symbol in the status bar of your browser is closed and the address line begins with https://.

Required cookies

We use cookies on our websites that are necessary for the use of our websites.

Cookies are small text files that can be stored and read on your end device. A distinction is made between session cookies, which are deleted as soon as you close your browser, and permanent cookies, which are stored beyond the individual session.

We do not use these necessary cookies for analysis, tracking or advertising purposes.

Some of these cookies only contain information on certain settings and are not personally identifiable. They may also be necessary to enable user guidance, security and implementation of the site.

We use these cookies on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

You can set your browser so that it informs you about the placement of cookies. This makes the use of cookies transparent for you. You can also delete cookies at any time via the corresponding browser setting and prevent the setting of new cookies. Please note that our web pages may then not be displayed and some functions may no longer be technically available.

Contact us

You have the option of contacting us by telephone, e-mail or directly via our contact form. To use our contact form, we first need the data marked as mandatory fields.

We use the data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR to answer your enquiry.

Your data will only be processed to answer your enquiry. We will delete your data if it is no longer required and there are no legal obligations to retain it. 

With regard to processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, you have the right to object at any time. To do so, please contact the person named in the Imprint genannte E-Mail-Adresse.

Vehicle enquiry

You also have the option of making direct enquiries about a vehicle via our vehicle exchange. To use the contact form, we first need the data marked as mandatory.

We use this data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b or lit. f GDPR to answer your enquiry.

In addition, you can decide for yourself whether you would like to provide us with further information. This information is provided voluntarily and is not mandatory for the enquiry. We process your voluntary information on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

Your data will only be processed to answer your enquiry. We will delete your data if it is no longer required and there are no legal obligations to retain it. 

Insofar as your data transmitted via the enquiry form is processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, you can object to the processing at any time. You can also revoke your consent to the processing of voluntary information at any time. To do so, please contact the address given in the Imprint genannte E-Mail-Adresse.

Captcha

To protect our web forms from automated enquiries, we use a so-called captcha from a third-party provider. As part of the captcha function, all user input and mouse movements that you make on our website are automatically recorded (regardless of whether you access pages that contain web forms or not). The data collected in this way is used to assess whether the entries were made by a human or an automated programme.

As the function is provided by a third-party provider, displaying the captcha results in the third-party provider's content being reloaded. As a result, the third-party provider receives information that you have accessed our site and the usage data technically required in this context. In this respect, the third-party provider also receives your IP address, which is technically required to retrieve the content. We have no influence on further data processing by the third-party provider. 

Data processing takes place on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR or § 15 para. 3 sentence 1 TMG, provided that you have previously given your consent via our banner solution.  

Please note that the use of captchas may result in your data being processed outside the EU or EEA. In some countries, there is a risk that authorities may access the data for security and monitoring purposes without you being informed or having the right to appeal. If we use providers in unsafe third countries and you consent, the transfer to an unsafe third country is based on Art. 49 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.  

Map services

We embed map services on our websites that are not stored on our servers. To ensure that accessing our websites with embedded map services does not automatically result in the third-party provider's content being reloaded, we only display locally stored preview images of the maps in a first step. This means that the third-party provider does not receive any information.

Only after you click on the preview image will the third-party provider's content be loaded. As a result, the third-party provider receives the information that you have accessed our site and the usage data technically required in this context. We have no influence on further data processing by the third-party provider. By clicking on the preview image, you give us your consent to load content from the third-party provider. 

The embedding takes place on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR or § 15 para. 3 sentence 1 TMG, provided that you have previously given your consent by clicking on the preview image. 

Please note that the embedding of some map services means that your data will be processed outside the EU or EEA. In some countries, there is a risk that authorities may access the data for security and monitoring purposes without you being informed or having the right to appeal. If we use providers in unsafe third countries and you consent, the transfer to an unsafe third country is based on Art. 49 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. 

Integration of other technical third-party content and functions

We use the technical functions and content of third-party providers listed below to display our websites.

When you visit our website, content from the third-party provider that provides these functions and content is loaded. As a result, the third-party provider receives the information that you have accessed our site and the usage data technically required in this context.

We have no influence on further data processing by the third-party provider. 

The embedding takes place on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR and in the interest of making our website as appealing and informative as possible. 

Storage duration

Unless we have already informed you in detail about the storage period, we delete personal data when it is no longer required for the aforementioned processing purposes and no statutory retention obligations prevent deletion.

Further processors

We pass on your data to service providers who support us in the operation of our websites and the associated processes as part of order processing in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. These are, for example, hosting service providers. Our service providers are strictly bound by our instructions and are contractually bound accordingly.

In the following, we will name the processors with whom we work if we have not already done so in the above text of the privacy policy. If data is transferred outside the EU or the EEA in this context, we will provide information on the appropriate level of data protection. 

Your rights as a data subject

When processing your personal data, the GDPR grants you certain rights as a data subject:

Right to information (Art. 15 GDPR)

You have the right to request confirmation as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed; if this is the case, you have a right to information about this personal data and to the information listed in detail in Art. 15 GDPR.

Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)

You have the right to demand the immediate correction of incorrect personal data concerning you and, if necessary, the completion of incomplete data.

Right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)

You have the right to demand that personal data concerning you be deleted immediately if one of the reasons listed in Art. 17 GDPR applies.

Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)

You have the right to request the restriction of processing if one of the conditions listed in Art. 18 GDPR is met, e.g. if you have objected to the processing, for the duration of the examination by the controller.

Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)

In certain cases, which are listed in detail in Art. 20 GDPR, you have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in a structured, common and machine-readable format or to request the transfer of this data to a third party.

Right of cancellation (Art. 7 GDPR)

If the processing of data is based on your consent, you are entitled to revoke your consent to the use of your personal data at any time in accordance with Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR. Please note that the revocation only takes effect for the future. Processing that took place before the revocation is not affected.

Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data is collected on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR (data processing to protect legitimate interests) or on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. e GDPR (data processing to protect the public interest or in the exercise of official authority), you have the right to object to the processing at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. We will then no longer process the personal data unless there are demonstrably compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR)

In accordance with Art. 77 GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you are of the opinion that the processing of data concerning you violates data protection regulations.
