1. Scope of application

The data protection declaration includes the information in the sense of Art. 13 DSGVO about the data processing in the context of calling up our website “schechtl.de”. Insofar as we link to third-party sites, we have neither influence nor control over the linked content and the data protection provisions there. We recommend that you check the data protection statements on the linked websites to determine whether and to what extent personal data is collected, processed, used or made available to third parties there.

3. Place of data processing

All personal data that we collect and process via the website is stored on local servers of Hetzner Online GmbH in Germany.

In the context of the further development of data protection law as well as technological or organisational changes, our data protection information is regularly checked for the need for adaptation or additions and updated if necessary.

B. General data processing when visiting our website

1. Logfiles

When our websites are accessed, a log data record (so-called server log files) is stored on our web server, which also includes the IP address of the website visitor. The data within these server log files are required, among other things, to correctly display the content of our websites and to ensure the security of our IT infrastructure (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO). The collection of data and storage in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. Insofar as the further storage of the log files is required by law, the processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) DSGVO. There is no legal or contractual obligation to provide the data, however, calling up our website is not technically possible without providing the data. The log files are deleted regularly and automatically. Should you require further information on this, please feel free to contact us at any time using the aforementioned contact details.

2. Tools and Cookies

This website uses various services and applications (collectively “tools”) that are provided either by us or by third parties. These include, in particular, tools that use technologies to store or access information in the end device (e.g. cookies, web storage, JavaScript or pixels). Details on the tools, in particular the cookies used, can be found in the data protection settings.

On the one hand, we distinguish between tools that are absolutely necessary, e.g. to provide the basic functions of the website or to provide an expressly requested service (the legal basis for the use of these tools is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO, or § 25 para. 2 no. 2 TTDSG). On the other hand, we use tools that are not absolutely necessary and enable us, for example, to evaluate the calls and visits to the website or to play out targeted marketing measures. For the use of these tools, we require your prior consent, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO, or § 25 para. 1 TTDSG).

3. Analysis tools and advertising tools

We currently do not use any tools on our website with which we analyse user behaviour or evaluate interests, e.g. in order to display personalised advertising on our website and on the websites and services of other providers. Apart from this, it is guaranteed that these tools are only used or process data if you have given your prior consent to this (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO; § 25 para. 1 TTDSG). If these providers have access to personal data or the tools are hosted by these providers, the necessary order processing contracts will be concluded. If you have any questions about the providers or require further information about any storage and deletion processes, please feel free to contact us at any time using the aforementioned contact details.

C. Other special data processing

1. Contact form

We offer a contact form on our website to answer questions from interested parties and customers and to provide information about our services. We process the enquiries and information sent to us in this context only to process your enquiry and to contact you (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO). We store your data at the longest for the duration of a resulting contractual relationship with you (Art. 6 para. lit. 1 b) DSGVO). There is no legal or contractual obligation to provide your data, but it is not possible to contact you without providing your data. Should such a contractual relationship not arise as a result of the request, we will delete your data no later than three (3) years after the last contact with you. The right to object to processing beforehand or to request deletion remains unaffected, of course.

2. Google Maps

We use Google Maps (API) on our website. The operating company of Google Maps is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (land) maps in order to visually present geographical information. When you access a page that embeds Google Maps, your browser loads the web fonts required to display Google Maps into your browser cache. For this purpose, too, the browser you use establishes a connection to Google’s servers. In this way, Google learns that our website has been accessed via your IP address. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account via which you are logged in or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not want your data to be associated with your Google profile, you must log out of your Google user account. Google stores your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and evaluates them. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, and you must contact Google to exercise this right. These processing operations are carried out exclusively upon the granting of explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO. Within the scope of this processing, personal data may also be transferred to third countries outside the European Economic Area, in particular the USA. The transfer of data to the USA takes place in accordance with Art. 45 (1) DSGVO on the basis of the adequacy decision of the European Commission. The US company involved and/or their US subcontractors are certified in accordance with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF). In cases where no European Commission adequacy decision exists (including the U.S. companies that are not certified under the EU-U.S. DPF), we have agreed with the recipients of the data on other appropriate safeguards within the meaning of Art. 44 et seq. DSGVO. You can view the privacy policy of Google Maps at: (“Google Privacy Policy”): https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US

3. Google Fonts

Our website uses so-called web fonts, which are provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, for the uniform display of fonts. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO). However, we have integrated the web fonts locally, i.e. on our web server. As a result, there is no data transmission to Google’s servers.

4. TeamViewer

We use the tool “TeamViewer Meeting” to carry out our communication in the form of support requests. The provider is TeamViewer Germany GmbH, Bahnhofsplatz 2, 73033 Göppingen. When using “TeamViewer Meeting”, various types of data are processed. The scope of the data also depends on the data you provide before or during participation in an “online meeting”. The following personal data may be processed: User details such as first name, last name, telephone number (optional), e-mail address (optional), password (if “single sign-on” is not used), profile picture (optional). Meeting metadata such as topic, description (optional), participant IP addresses, device/hardware information. For recordings (optional), all video, audio, presentation recordings and text files of the online meeting chat can be processed. When dialling in with the telephone, information on the incoming and outgoing call number, country name, start and end time are processed. If necessary, further connection data such as the IP address of the device may be stored. You may have the option (optional) to use the chat, question or survey functions in an “online meeting”. The text entries you make are processed in order to display them in the “online meeting” and to log them if necessary. In order to enable the display of video and the playback of audio, the data from the microphone of your terminal device and from any video camera of the terminal device are processed accordingly for the duration of the meeting. You can switch off or mute the camera or microphone yourself at any time via “TeamViewer Meeting”. If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DS-GVO. The legal basis for the use of “TeamViewer Meeting” in the context of existing or prospective contractual relationships is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) DS-GVO. The personal data concerning you will be stored until the purpose of the data processing no longer applies. Data processing outside the EU / EEA does not take place as a matter of principle. To the extent that “TeamViewer” processes personal data in connection with “TeamViewer’s” legitimate business operations, “TeamViewer” is an independent data controller for such use and as such is responsible for compliance with applicable laws and obligations of a data controller. When you visit the Provider’s other websites or install the Provider’s tool on your device, the processing of personal data is governed solely by the Provider’s privacy policy. Further information on “TeamViewer” can be found at: https://www.teamviewer.com/en/privacy-notice/

D. Applications

Information on the type and scope of data processing in the event that you send us your application documents is provided separately in the “Careers” section.

E. Social Media

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. via comment and chat functions) 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 aggregated information and statistics (e.g. IP address; origin of followers) that help us to learn about interactions with our site. The legal basis for data processing in our area of responsibility is Art. 6 para. 1, p. 1 lit. f) DSGVO. However, the providers also process data under their own responsibility. We have no influence on data that is processed by the provider under its own responsibility in accordance with its own terms of use and data protection conditions. We would like to point out that when calling up the aforementioned providers, further 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 and outside 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. If we have personal data from you in connection with the use of the online platforms and networks, please address your concerns to us. If you wish to assert additional rights against a specific provider, please contact the provider in question.
