Privacy policy

We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our enterprise. Data protection is
of a particularly high priority for the management of Claudia Pelka. The use
of the Internet pages of Claudia Pelka is possible without any indication of
personal data; however, if a data subject wants to use special enterprise services via
our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of
personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we
generally obtain consent from the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone
number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection
regulations applicable to Claudia Pelka. By means of this data protection
declaration, our enterprise would like to inform the general public of the nature,
scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data
subjects are informed, by means of this data protection declaration, of the rights to
which they are entitled.

As the controller, Claudia Pelka has implemented numerous technical and
organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data
processed through this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions may in
principle have security gaps, so absolute protection may not be guaranteed. For this
reason, every data subject is free to transfer personal data to us via alternative
means, e.g. by telephone.

1. Definitions

The data protection declaration of Claudia Pelka is based on the terms used by
the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation
(GDPR). Our data protection declaration should be legible and understandable for the

like to first explain the terminology used.

In this data protection declaration, we use, inter alia, the following terms:

  • a) Personal data

    Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable
    natural person („data subject“). An identifiable natural person is one who can
    be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an
    identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online
    identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological,
    genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural
    person.

  • b) Data subject

    Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person, whose personal
    data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.

  • c) Processing

    Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal
    data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as
    collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or
    alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission,
    dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination,
    restriction, erasure or destruction.

  • d) Restriction of processing

    Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of
    limiting their processing in the future.

  • e) Profiling

    Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of
    the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a
    natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that
    natural person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal
    preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.

  • f) Pseudonymisation

    Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the
    personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the
    use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept
    separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure
    that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable
    natural person.

  • g) Controller or controller responsible for the processing

    Controller or controller responsible for the processing is the natural or legal
    person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with
    others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data;
    where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or
    Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may
    be provided for by Union or Member State law.

  • h) Processor

    Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body
    which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

  • i) Recipient

    Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body,
    to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However,
    public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a
    particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be
    regarded as recipients; the processing of those data by those public authorities
    shall be in compliance with the applicable data protection rules according to
    the purposes of the processing.

  • j) Third party

    Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other
    than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct
    authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal
    data.

  • k) Consent

    Consent of the data subject is any freely given, specific, informed and
    unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a
    statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the
    processing of personal data relating to him or her.

3. Cookies

The Internet pages of Claudia Pelka use cookies. Cookies are text files that
are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser.

Many Internet sites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID.
A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a character string
through which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet
browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited Internet sites and servers
to differentiate the individual browser of the dats subject from other Internet browsers
that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified
using the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, Claudia Pelka can provide the users of this website
with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie
setting.

By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized with the
user in mind. Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognize our website users.
The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website.
The website user that uses cookies, e.g. does not have to enter access data each time
the website is accessed, because this is taken over by the website, and the cookie is
thus stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping
cart in an online shop. The online store remembers the articles that a customer has
placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.

The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by
means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used, and may thus permanently
deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time
via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all popular
Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the
Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be entirely usable.

4. Collection of general data and information

The website of Claudia Pelka collects a series of general data and information
when a data subject or automated system calls up the website. This general data and
information are stored in the server log files. Collected may be (1) the browser types
and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the
website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4)
the sub-websites, (5) the date and time of access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet
protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing
system, and (8) any other similar data and information that may be used in the event of
attacks on our information technology systems.

When using these general data and information, Claudia Pelka does not draw any
conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver
the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website as well as
its advertisement, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our information technology
systems and website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the
information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack. Therefore,
Claudia Pelka analyzes anonymously collected data and information statistically,
with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and
to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous
data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a
data subject.

5. Contact possibility via the website

The website of Claudia Pelka contains information that enables a quick
electronic contact to our enterprise, as well as direct communication with us, which
also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a
data subject contacts the controller by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data
transmitted by the data subject are automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted
on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the data controller are stored for the purpose
of processing or contacting the data subject. There is no transfer of this personal data
to third parties.

6. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data

The data controller shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only
for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted
by the European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the
controller is subject to.

If the storage purpose is not applicable, or if a storage period prescribed by the
European legislator or another competent legislator expires, the personal data are
routinely blocked or erased in accordance with legal requirements.

7. Rights of the data subject

  • a) Right of confirmation

    Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to
    obtain from the controller the confirmation as to whether or not personal data
    concerning him or her are being processed. If a data subject wishes to avail
    himself of this right of confirmation, he or she may, at any time, contact any
    employee of the controller.

  • b) Right of access

    Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to
    obtain from the controller free information about his or her personal data
    stored at any time and a copy of this information. Furthermore, the European
    directives and regulations grant the data subject access to the following
    information:

    • the purposes of the processing;
    • the categories of personal data concerned;
    • the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have
      been or will be disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or
      international organisations;
    • where possible, the envisaged period for which the personal data will be
      stored, or, if not possible, the criteria used to determine that period;
    • the existence of the right to request from the controller rectification or
      erasure of personal data, or restriction of processing of personal data
      concerning the data subject, or to object to such processing;
    • the existence of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory
      authority;
    • where the personal data are not collected from the data subject, any
      available information as to their source;
    • the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, referred to
      in Article 22(1) and (4) of the GDPR and, at least in those cases,
      meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance
      and envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject.

    Furthermore, the data subject shall have a right to obtain information as to
    whether personal data are transferred to a third country or to an international
    organisation. Where this is the case, the data subject shall have the right to
    be informed of the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer.

    If a data subject wishes to avail himself of this right of access, he or she may,
    at any time, contact any employee of the controller.

  • c) Right to rectification

    Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to
    obtain from the controller without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate
    personal data concerning him or her. Taking into account the purposes of the
    processing, the data subject shall have the right to have incomplete personal
    data completed, including by means of providing a supplementary statement.

    If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to rectification, he or she may,
    at any time, contact any employee of the controller.

  • d) Right to erasure (Right to be forgotten)

    Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to
    obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning him or her
    without undue delay, and the controller shall have the obligation to erase
    personal data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies, as
    long as the processing is not necessary:

    • The personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for
      which they were collected or otherwise processed.
    • The data subject withdraws consent to which the processing is based
      according to point (a) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR, or point (a) of Article
      9(2) of the GDPR, and where there is no other legal ground for the
      processing.
    • The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the
      GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or
      the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the
      GDPR.
    • The personal data have been unlawfully processed.
    • The personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation in
      Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.
    • The personal data have been collected in relation to the offer of
      information society services referred to in Article 8(1) of the GDPR.

    If one of the aforementioned reasons applies, and a data subject wishes to
    request the erasure of personal data stored by Claudia Pelka, he or
    she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller. An employee of
    Claudia Pelka shall promptly ensure that the erasure request is complied
    with immediately.

    Where the controller has made personal data public and is obliged pursuant to
    Article 17(1) to erase the personal data, the controller, taking account of
    available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable
    steps, including technical measures, to inform other controllers processing the
    personal data that the data subject has requested erasure by such controllers of
    any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data, as far as
    processing is not required. An employees of Claudia Pelka will arrange
    the necessary measures in individual cases.

  • e) Right of restriction of processing

    Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to
    obtain from the controller restriction of processing where one of the following
    applies:

    • The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a
      period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
    • The processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the
      personal data and requests instead the restriction of their use instead.
    • The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the
      processing, but they are required by the data subject for the establishment,
      exercise or defence of legal claims.
    • The data subject has objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the
      GDPR pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the
      controller override those of the data subject.

    If one of the aforementioned conditions is met, and a data subject wishes to
    request the restriction of the processing of personal data stored by Claudia Pelka,
    he or she may at any time contact any employee of the controller.
    The employee of Claudia Pelka will arrange the restriction of the processing.

  • f) Right to data portability

    Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator, to
    receive the personal data concerning him or her, which was provided to a
    controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. He or
    she shall have the right to transmit those data to another controller without
    hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided, as
    long as the processing is based on consent pursuant to point (a) of Article 6(1)
    of the GDPR or point (a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR, or on a contract pursuant
    to point (b) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR, and the processing is carried out by
    automated means, as long as the processing is not necessary for the performance
    of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official
    authority vested in the controller.

    Furthermore, in exercising his or her right to data portability pursuant to
    Article 20(1) of the GDPR, the data subject shall have the right to have
    personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where
    technically feasible and when doing so does not adversely affect the rights and
    freedoms of others.

    In order to assert the right to data portability, the data subject may at any
    time contact any employee of Claudia Pelka.

  • g) Right to object

    Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to
    object, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, at any time, to
    processing of personal data concerning him or her, which is based on point (e)
    or (f) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on
    these provisions.

    Claudia Pelka shall no longer process the personal data in the event of
    the objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the
    processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data
    subject, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

    If Claudia Pelka processes personal data for direct marketing purposes,
    the data subject shall have the right to object at any time to processing of
    personal data concerning him or her for such marketing. This applies to
    profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If the data
    subject objects to Claudia Pelka to the processing for direct
    marketing purposes, Claudia Pelka will no longer process the personal
    data for these purposes.

    In addition, the data subject has the right, on grounds relating to his or her
    particular situation, to object to processing of personal data concerning him or
    her by Claudia Pelka for scientific or historical research purposes,
    or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless the
    processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of
    public interest.

    In order to exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact any
    employee of Claudia Pelka. In addition, the data subject is free in
    the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding
    Directive 2002/58/EC, to use his or her right to object by automated means using
    technical specifications.

  • h) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

    Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator not to
    be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including
    profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her, or similarly
    significantly affects him or her, as long as the decision (1) is not is
    necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data
    subject and a data controller, or (2) is not authorised by Union or Member State
    law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable
    measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate
    interests, or (3) is not based on the data subject’s explicit consent.

    If the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a
    contract between the data subject and a data controller, or (2) it is based on
    the data subject’s explicit consent, Claudia Pelka shall implement
    suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and
    legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the
    part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and contest the
    decision.

    If the data subject wishes to exercise the rights concerning automated individual
    decision-making, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of Claudia Pelka.

  • i) Right to withdraw data protection consent

    Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to
    withdraw his or her consent to processing of his or her personal data at any
    time.

    If the data subject wishes to exercise the right to withdraw the consent, he or
    she may, at any time, contact any employee of Claudia Pelka.

8. Data protection provisions about the application and use of Google Analytics (with
anonymization function)

On this website, the controller has integrated the component of Google Analytics (with
the anonymizer function). Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics is
the collection, gathering, and analysis of data about the behavior of visitors to
websites. A web analysis service collects, inter alia, data about the website from which
a person has come (the so-called referrer), which sub-pages were visited, or how often
and for what duration a sub-page was viewed. Web analytics are mainly used for the
optimization of a website and in order to carry out a cost-benefit analysis of Internet
advertising.

The operator of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy,
Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, United States.

For the web analytics through Google Analytics the controller uses the application “_gat.
_anonymizeIp”. By means of this application the IP address of the Internet connection of
the data subject is abridged by Google and anonymised when accessing our websites from a
Member State of the European Union or another Contracting State to the Agreement on the
European Economic Area.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze the traffic on our website.
Google uses the collected data and information, inter alia, to evaluate the use of our
website and to provide online reports, which show the activities on our websites, and to
provide other services concerning the use of our Internet site for us.

Google Analytics places a cookie on the information technology system of the data
subject. The definition of cookies is explained above. With the setting of the cookie,
Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. With each call-up to one of the
individual pages of this Internet site, which is operated by the controller and into
which a Google Analytics component was integrated, the Internet browser on the
information technology system of the data subject will automatically submit data through
the Google Analytics component for the purpose of online advertising and the settlement
of commissions to Google. During the course of this technical procedure, the enterprise
Google gains knowledge of personal information, such as the IP address of the data
subject, which serves Google, inter alia, to understand the origin of visitors and
clicks, and subsequently create commission settlements.

The cookie is used to store personal information, such as the access time, the location
from which the access was made, and the frequency of visits of our website by the data
subject. With each visit to our Internet site, such personal data, including the IP
address of the Internet access used by the data subject, will be transmitted to Google
in the United States of America. These personal data are stored by Google in the United
States of America. Google may pass these personal data collected through the technical
procedure to third parties.

The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies through our website
at any time by means of a corresponding adjustment of the web browser used and thus
permanently deny the setting of cookies. Such an adjustment to the Internet browser used
would also prevent Google Analytics from setting a cookie on the information technology
system of the data subject. In addition, cookies already in use by Google Analytics may
be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs.

In addition, the data subject has the possibility of objecting to a collection of data
that are generated by Google Analytics, which is related to the use of this website, as
well as the processing of this data by Google and the chance to preclude any such. For
this purpose, the data subject must download a browser add-on under the link
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and install it. This browser add-on tells
Google Analytics through a JavaScript, that any data and information about the visits of
Internet pages may not be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the
browser add-ons is considered an objection by Google. If the information technology
system of the data subject is later deleted, formatted, or newly installed, then the
data subject must reinstall the browser add-ons to disable Google Analytics. If the
browser add-on was uninstalled by the data subject or any other person who is
attributable to their sphere of competence, or is disabled, it is possible to execute
the reinstallation or reactivation of the browser add-ons.

Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of Google may be
retrieved under https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/ and under
http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html. Google Analytics is further explained
under the following Link https://www.google.com/analytics/.

9. Legal basis for the processing

Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we
obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is
necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as is
the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods
or to provide any other service, the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. b GDPR.
The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for carrying out
pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries concerning our products
or services. Is our company subject to a legal obligation by which processing of
personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the
processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR.
In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital
interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for
example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance
data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or
other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR.
Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal
basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the
abovementioned legal grounds, 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 which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are
particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European
legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data
subject is a client of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

10. The legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR our legitimate
interest is to carry out our business in favor of the well-being of all our employees
and the shareholders.

11. Period for which the personal data will be stored

The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective
statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is
routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the
contract or the initiation of a contract.

12. Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement; Requirement
necessary to enter into a contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the
personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data

We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax
regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the
contractual partner).

Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us
with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for
example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with
him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the
contract with the data subject could not be concluded.

Before personal data is provided by the data subject, the data subject must contact any
employee. The employee clarifies to the data subject whether the provision of the
personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the
contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and the
consequences of non-provision of the personal data.

13. Existence of automated decision-making

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.

14. Google Maps

Via an API, this website uses the mapping service Google Maps. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

To enable the use of the Google Maps features, your IP address must be stored. As a rule, this information is transferred to one of Google’s servers in the United States, where it is archived. The operator of this website has no control over the data transfer.

We use Google Maps to present our online content in an appealing manner and to make the locations disclosed on our website easy to find. This constitutes a legitimate interest as defined in Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. f GDPR.

For more information on the handling of user data, please review Google’s Data Privacy Declaration under: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

This Privacy Policy has been generated by the Privacy Policy Generator of the German Association for Data
Protection
that was developed in cooperation with RC GmbH, which sells used IT and the Privacy
Lawyers
from WILDE BEUGER SOLMECKE, Cologne. The 14th section, “Google Maps”, was created by the privacy policy generator of eRecht24.
