§1 Information on the Collection of Personal Data

1. The following is to inform you of the collection of personal data while using our website. Personal data is all data that can be attributed to you personally such as name, address, email addresses, user behaviour.
2. The controller pursuant to Art. 4 (7) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the company elobau GmbH & Co KG, Zeppelinstr. 44, D-88299 Leutkirch, Germany, info@elobau.de (see our Legal Notice).
   Our data protection officer is contactable at datenschutz@elobau.de or our postal address with the addition “the data protection officer”.
3. In the event in which you contact us by email, we will store the data you communicate (your email address, your name and your telephone number, as the case may be) in order to answer your questions. We will erase the data collected in this connection once their storage is no longer required or we restrict the processing if statutory compulsory retention periods apply. The legal basis depends on the type of your request. If it is about the purchase of any of our products or the use of our services, Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR is the appropriate legal basis. If you desire general information from us, you give us your consent to data processing pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR in sending us your request.
4. If we resort to contracted service providers for individual functions of our offer or if we wish to use your data for advertising purposes, we will inform you below of the respective processes in detail. In doing so, we also inform you of the criteria determined for the storage period.

§2 Legal Basis for Processing

Our company applies Art. 6 (1)(1)(a) GDPR as legal basis for processing procedures for which we obtain the consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is required to perform a contract to which the data subject is a party, as e.g., in cases of processing procedures required for the delivery of goods or the provision of any other service or return service, the processing is based on Art. 6 (1)(1)(b) GDPR. The same is applicable to such processing procedures required for the performance of pre-contractual measures such as in cases of requests regarding our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation requiring the processing of personal data such as e.g., the satisfaction of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 (1)(1)(c) GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may become required to protect vital interests of the data subject or another natural person, Art. 6 (1)(1)(d) GDPR. Finally, processing procedures could as well be based on Art. 6 (1)(1)(f) GDPR. Processing procedures that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases rest on this legal basis if processing is required to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, unless the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject prevail.

§3 Transfer of Data

There will not be any transfer of your personal data to third parties for purposes other than the ones listed below. We transfer your personal data to third parties only if you gave your express consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(1)(a) GDPR, the transfer is required for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worth being protected in the avoidance of the transfer of your data in case that there is a legal obligation to carry out the transfer pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(1)(c) GDPR as well as that this is legally permitted and required for the transaction of contractual relationships with you pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(1)(b) GDPR.

Google Adwords Conversion

1. We use the offer of Google Adwords in order to attract attention to our offers on external websites with the assistance of advertising tools (so-called Google Adwords). We can determine in relation to the data of the advertising campaigns how successful the individual advertising measures are. We do so as we are interested in showing you ads of interest to you, presenting our website in a more interesting arrangement for you and achieving a fair calculation of advertising costs.
2. Google delivers the said advertising tools by means of so-called “ad servers”. In this connection, we use ad server cookies, which enable the measurement of specific parameters for success measurement such as the pop-up of ads or clicks by the users. If you come to our website via a Google ad, Google Adwords stores a cookie on your computer. As a rule, such cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not intended to identify you personally. In connection with that cookie, the unique cookie ID, the number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), last impression (relevant for post-​view conversions), as well as opt-​out information (tag to show that the user no longer wishes to be approached) are generally stored as analysis values.
3. Such cookies enable Google to recognise your web browser again. If a user visits specific pages of the website of an Adwords customer and the cookie stored on his/her computer has not expired yet, Google and the customer can recognise that the user clicked the ad and was redirected to that page. Each Adwords customer is assigned another cookie. According to Google, cookies can therefore not be traced via the websites of Adwords customers. As far as we are concerned, we do not use the mentioned advertising tools to collect and process any personal data. We just receive statistical evaluations from Google. Based on those evaluations, we can recognise which of the advertising tools we employed are particularly effective. We do not receive any further data from the use of the advertising tools and, in particular, we cannot identify the users with that information.
4. Owing to the employed marketing tools, your browser establishes a connection to Google’s server automatically. We have no influence on the volume and the further processing of the data collected by Google using this tool and therefore we inform you in accordance with our state of information: By way of incorporation of AdWords Conversion, Google receives the information that you accessed the corresponding part of our website or clicked any of our ads. If you are registered with a service of Google, Google can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, it is possible that the provider finds out and stores your IP address.
5. The legal basis for the processing of your data is Art. 6 (1)(1)(a) GDPR. Consent via the consent banner (activation by Google Analytics).
