Other important information for you is listed in sections 4.1 to 4.7.

We process your data to be able to send the newsletter to your
e-mail address.

We can send you the newsletter because you have granted us your consent under Art. 6 para. 1 letter a) of the GDPR. Before receiving the newsletter, you went through a double opt-in process in which you gave your consent to receive the newsletter and provided your contact data.

Within the Marantec Group, only authorized officers with appropriate authorization have access to your personal data. For certain activities, we have contracted with third parties to provide specific services. For example, this can include:

  • Providers for designing and sending the newsletter
  • IT providers
  • Consultants

These providers perform services for us under supervision and are strictly bound to instructions. They receive data only within the scope necessary for their assignments. Your personal data can also be forwarded to third parties if you have consented to its forwarding or if we are so obligated by law and/or by order of the authorities or the courts. In particular, this can apply to providing information for purposes of the financial authorities, social insurance carriers or law enforcement authorities.

No, the data is only processed within the European Union.

The data will be deleted two years after your objection. If you object to receiving the newsletter, no more newsletters will be sent to you from that point on.

If you do not provide your data (first name, last name, e-mail address, company, language, country, interests), we cannot send you the newsletter.

Tracking and profiling are done for advertising purposes. For example, the opening rate, click rate, unsubscribe rate, click-through rate, conversion rate, bounce rate, geotracking, complaints, the device, the e-mail program, the operating system (mobile/tablet), etc., are collected and stored in the recipient profiles. At any time, you can request no longer to receive informational and advertising e-mails. To do this, click on the link at the end of the e-mail or unsubscribe by e-mail to info(at)marantec-group.com

In sections 5.1 to 5.8, you can find out what your rights are. As a person affected by data processing, according to the General Data Protection Regulation, your rights include but are not limited to the following (hereinafter also referred to as “rights of those affected”).

You have the right to demand information as to whether or not we process your personal data. If we process your personal data, you are entitled to know:

  • why we process your data (also see Point 4.1);
  • what types of data from you we process;
  • what types of recipients receive or should receive your data (see also Point 4.3);
  • how long we will store your data; if it is not possible to specify the storage period, we must inform you of how the storage period is determined (e.g. after the expiration of statutory retention periods) (see also Point 4.5);
  • that you have a right to correction or deletion of data affecting you, including the right to limit processing and/or the possibility to object (for this see also the following points 5.2, 5.3 et seq.);
  • that you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority;
  • where your data come from, if we did not collect it directly from you;
  • whether your data will be used for an automatic decision, and if so, what logic the decision is based on and what effects and scope the automated decision may have for you;

You have the right to demand that we correct your data if it is incorrect and/or incomplete. This right also includes the right to completion through additional explanations or communications. Correction and/or completion must be made without undue delay.

You have the right to request that we delete your personal data if: (i) The personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and processed. (ii) The data processing is based on your consent and you have revoked your consent. However, this does not apply if there is other legal permission for data processing. (iii) You have objected to data processing that is legally permitted in the “legitimate interest” (according to Article 6 paragraph 1 letters e) or f). However, deletion need not take place if there are overriding legitimate reasons for further processing. (iv) You have objected to data processing for direct advertising purposes. (v) Your personal data has been processed unlawfully. (vi) It is a child's data that was collected for information society services (= electronic services) based on consent (according to Art. 8 Para. 1 GDPR). There is no right to deletion of personal data if

  • the right to freedom of expression and information conflicts with the request for deletion;
  • processing of personal data is necessary
    • for meeting a legal obligation (e.g. statutory retention obligations),
    • to perform public tasks and interests in accordance with applicable law (this also includes “public health”) or
    • for archiving and/or research purposes;

if the personal data is necessary to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. Deletion must be done immediately (without undue delay). If we have made personal data public (e.g. on the Internet), we must ensure, to the extent technically possible and reasonable, that other data processors are also informed of the request for deletion, including the deletion of links, copies and/or replications.

You have the right to have processing of your personal data limited in the following cases: If you have disputed the accuracy of your personal data, you can request that we not use your data for any other purpose while we are verifying its accuracy and thus restrict its processing. In the event of unlawful data processing, you can request that data use be restricted instead of deleted. If you need your personal data to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, but we no longer need your personal data, you can request that we restrict processing to legal enforcement purposes. If you have lodged an objection to data processing (according to Article 21 Para. 1 GDPR) (see also Point 5.6) and it is not yet clear whether our interests in processing outweigh your interests, you can request that your data be stored for the duration of the examination period and not be used for other purposes, thereby restricting its processing.

Personal data whose processing has been restricted at your request may, subject to storage, only
be processed with your consent,
to assert, exercise or defend legal claims
, to protect the rights of other natural or legal persons, or
for reasons of important public interest.
If a processing limitation is to be lifted, you will be informed ahead of time.

You have the right to demand that we provide the data you have provided to us in a common electronic format (such as a PDF or Excel document).

You can also demand that we transfer this data to another (through a specific) company, insofar as this is technically possible for us.

The prerequisite for you to have this right is that the processing took place based on consent or for performance of a contract and using automated processes. Exercising the right to data transferability does not interfere with the rights and freedoms of other people.

If you take advantage of the right to data transferability, you still have the right to data deletions under Article 17 GDPR.

If your data is processed to carry out tasks in the public interest or to pursue legitimate interests, you can object to this processing. For this, you must present reasons for your objection that stem from your special situation. They could be special family circumstances or confidentiality interests worthy of protection, for example.

In the event of an objection, we must refrain from all further processing of your data for the stated purposes,
unless there are compelling, legitimate reasons for processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is necessary for the purpose of asserting or exercising your data or defense of legal claims.

You can object to use of your data for direct advertising purposes at any time; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected to direct advertising. In the event of an objection, we are no longer permitted to use your data for direct advertising purposes.

Decisions we make that have legal consequences for you or that significantly affect you may are not to be based solely on automated processing of personal data. This also includes profiling. This ban does not apply insofar as the automated decision is necessary for conclusion or performance of a contract with you, is permitted by law,
if such law contains appropriate measures to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, or
is made with your express consent.
Decisions that are based exclusively on automated processing of special categories of personal data (= sensitive data) are only permitted if they are based on
your express consent or
there is a significant public interest in the processing and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.

To exercise your rights as an affected person, please contact the site mentioned in Point 3.2. Queries submitted electronically are generally answered electronically. Information, notifications and measures to be made available under the GDPR, including the exercise of the rights of those affected, are generally provided free of charge. Only in the case of obviously unfounded or excessive requests are we entitled to charge an appropriate fee for processing or to refrain from taking action (according to Article 12 Paragraph 5 GDPR).
If there are reasonable doubts as to your identity, we are permitted to request additional information from you for identification purposes. If we cannot make identification, we have the right to decline processing of your query. If we can, we will provide special notification if identification is not possible (see Article 12 paragraph 6 and Article 11 GDPR).
Requests for information are generally processed immediately, within one month of receipt of the request. The deadline may be extended by a further two months if necessary taking into account the complexity and/or number of requests. In the event of a deadline extension, we will inform you of the reasons for the delay within one month of receiving your request. If we do not act on a request, we will immediately inform you of the reasons for this within one month of receipt of the request and inform you of the possibility of lodging a complaint with a supervisory authority or of seeking legal redress. (see Article 12 paragraph 3 and paragraph 4 GDPR).
Please note that you can only exercise your rights as an affected person within the limits and restrictions provided for by the European Union or the member states. (Article 23 GDPR)
