In addition to the IP address, the logfile stores the name of the website you have accessed, the file you have accessed, the date and time of the access, the amount of data transferred and the message about the successful access, the browser type and version, the operating system, the referrer URL (the previously visited page) and the requesting provider.

In addition to the IP address collected by us, the plugin provider may use its own personal data (existing with the provider) for advertising purposes (also for third parties), market research and/or needs-based design of its own website and to inform other users of the respective network about your activities on our website. The providers also act as data controllers for the purposes of data protection, since we have no knowledge of the extent to which the provider uses the data obtained as a result from the time you click on the respective button.

C. Special data processing when using special functions on our website
1. Contact form
(1) We offer a contact form on our website to answer questions and provide information about our services to interested parties and users. We process the requests and information addressed to us in this context only for the purpose of processing your request and establishing contact with you (Art. 6 para. 1 f) GDPR). We store your data for no longer than the duration of a resulting business relationship with you (Art. 6 para. 2 b) GDPR).
(2) Should such a business and contractual relationship not arise as a result of the request, we will delete your data no later than twelve (12) months after the last contact with you. The right to object to processing in advance or to request deletion remains of course unaffected.
2. Card services
(1) We use on our website the offer of “Google Maps”, an online map service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4 (“Google”). This allows us to display interactive maps directly on the website and allow you to conveniently use the map function. The Google Maps map function or the Google Maps API (interface) are integrated on our website by means of “two-click solution”. This means that the map function is disabled first, and you need to activate the interface with one click. (Art. 6 (1) (a)) GDPR). Only with a subsequent second click will the selected map be displayed and possibly personal data transmitted to Google.
(2) By using the map function, Google receives information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. In addition, the IP address, date and time of the request, time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), content of the request (specific page), access status/HTTP status code, amount of data transmitted in each case, website from which the request originates, browser, operating system and its interface, language and version of the browser software are transmitted. This is done regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. Google stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for advertising, market research and/or needs-based design of its website. Such an evaluation takes place in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide demand-oriented advertising. In this respect, Google acts as the controller (jointly with us) (Art. 26 GDPR). Details can be found at https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/terms/maps-controller-terms. You have a right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact Google to exercise this right. Further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and its processing can be found in Google’s privacy policy, available at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en&gl=de. There you will also find further information about your rights in this regard and settings options to protect your privacy.

4. Applications at Schechtl

D. Social Media and fan pages
We operate websites on online platforms and social networks in order to interact with potential or existing customers, to exchange information with interested parties and users, or to advertise offers and services. We operate our websites under joint responsibility (under data protection law) with the providers. We process data that you directly share or publish via the online platforms and networks (e.g. comment and chat function) as the responsible party in order to interact with you or to exchange information with you. In the context of this interaction, we may also receive statistical data from the platform operators on the use of our “channels and fan pages”. This includes, for example, information about interactions, likes, comments or summarised information and statistics (e.g. IP address; origin of followers) that help us to learn about the interaction with our site. The legal basis for data processing in our area of responsibility is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 f) GDPR. However, the providers also process data under their own responsibility. We have no influence on data processed by the provider under their own responsibility in accordance with their own terms of use and data protection conditions. We would like to point out that when you access the aforementioned providers, additional data (e.g. your usage and “surfing behaviour”) may be collected and possibly transmitted to the provider. Please also note that in the event of interaction via the aforementioned media, data may also be processed outside the area of the European Union. Furthermore, user data is usually processed for market research and advertising purposes. For example, usage profiles can be created from the usage behaviour and the resulting interests of the users. The usage profiles can in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements within the platforms that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. You can find more detailed information on this in the data protection information of the respective providers. Insofar as we have personal data from you in connection with the use of the online platforms and networks, please address your concerns to us. Should you wish to assert any further rights against a specific provider, please contact the provider in question.
E. Your rights
You have the right to request confirmation from us at any time as to whether we are processing your personal data and the right to information about this personal data. In addition, you have the right to rectification, deletion and restriction of data processing, as well as the right to object to the processing of personal data at any time, or to revoke consent to data processing at any time or to request data transfer. In addition, you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority in the event of data protection violations. Please send all requests for information, revocations or objections to data processing by e-mail to .
F. Notes on the special right of objection
You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out, inter alia, on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, in accordance with Article 21 GDPR. We will stop processing your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims. If you wish to exercise your right to object, simply send an e-mail to .
