III. General Information on Data Processing

1. What are personal data?

Personal data within the meaning of the GDPR include all information relating to the personal or material circumstances of an identified or identifiable natural person (see Art. 4(1) GDPR). Such information will regularly include not only a person’s name and (e-mail) address, for example, but also the IP address and any other information that could permit identification of that person.

2. Scope of Processing of Personal Data

We process the personal data of our users only insofar as this is required to maintain a functional website and present our content and services. We regularly process personal data of our users only with their consent. An exception may be made in cases in which it is not possible to obtain such consent for concrete reasons and the processing of the data is legally allowed.

3. Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data

Art. 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) provides the legal basis for any request we may make for consent to process the personal data of data subjects.

Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR provides the legal basis for processing personal data for the performance of any contract to which a data subject is party. This will also apply to processing required prior to entering into such a contract.

Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR provides the legal basis for processing required to comply with any legal obligations to which our Company is subject.

Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR provides the legal basis for processing personal data in order to protect the vital interests of a data subject or other natural person.

Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR provides the legal basis for processing personal data in order to safeguard the legitimate interests of our Company or any third party and the interests, fundamental rights or freedoms of a data subject do not override the interests of the former.

4. Erasure and Duration of Storage of Data

The personal data of data subjects will be erased or blocked as soon as the purpose for which they were initially stored no longer applies. Personal data may be stored for longer periods if provision for such storage has been made by European or national legislatures in Union regulations, laws or other regulatory requirements to which the controller is subject. Personal data will also be blocked or erased if a corresponding period of retention prescribed by such regulations, laws or legal requirements expires unless such data are required for the entry into or performance of a contract.

IV. Availability of the Website and Creation of Log Files

1. Description and Scope of Data Processing

Our system automatically records data and information from the computer system of every visitor to our Internet site.

This involves recording the following data:

(1) Date and time of access
(2) Browser type, version and language
(3) City/region/country
(4) IP address of the user
(5) System used by the user

These data are stored in the log files of our system. We store IP addresses only in pseudonymized form. This is done by using a standard procedure that involves replacing the final three digits of the IP addresses stored in the log files by three digits selected at random. This makes it impossible to identify data subjects.

2. Legal Basis for Processing of Data

Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR provides the legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files.

3. Purpose of Processing Data

Temporary storage of IP addresses by the system is required to deliver the website to the computer of the user. As a result, the IP addresses of users must be stored for the duration of the respective session.

The purpose of storage in log files is to ensure the functionality of the website and support technical administration of the network infrastructure. In addition, such data enable us to enhance our website and maintain the security of our information technology systems. We also use these data to prepare and evaluate internal statistics. This involves no evaluation of data for marketing purposes.

We have a legitimate interest in processing data for such purposes pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

4. Duration of Storage

Data are erased as soon as they are no longer needed to achieve the purposes for which they were initially collected. In the case of data collected to permit delivery of our website, this occurs when the respective session is ended.

In the case of data stored in log files, this will regularly take place within seven days. Storage for a longer period is possible. In such cases, data are pseudonymized so that they no longer permit identification of a specific user. Backups are kept in encrypted form for 14 days.

5. Possibility of Objection and Elimination

It is absolutely necessary to collect and store data in log files to permit delivery of the website. As a result, users may not object to such storage.

V. Use of Cookies

1. Description and Scope of Data Processing

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in the Internet browser or by the Internet browser on the user’s computer system. When a user visits a website, a cookie can be placed on the user’s device. Cookies contain a unique string of random letters that clearly identify the users’ browser when they revisit the website.

We place cookies to make our website user-friendlier. A few elements of our website make it necessary to be able to recognize visiting browsers after page changes.

We use the following cookies:

(1) _cfduid
The __cfduid cookie is used to identify individual clients behind a shared IP address and apply security settings on a per-client basis.
(2) _utma
The _utma-cookie records the number of visits (for each visitor), the time of the first session, the previous session and the current session.
(3) _umtz
The _umtz-cookie records the traffic source to show whether a visitor reached the site though a search engine (and if so, the search term), a link or a previous page (e.g., a bookmark).
(4) _ga
In order for Google Analytics to be able to determine whether two visits were made by the same user, a unique identifier must be sent with each visit that can be used to permit recognition of the individual user. The analytics.js library does this by using a ‘Client ID’, which is a unique, randomly generated string of numbers that is stored on the user’s computer by the user’s web browser so that subsequent visits to a website by the same user can be associated with that user. Analytics.js uses a single standard first-party cookie called _ga to store Client IDs.
(5) _icl_current_admin_language_d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e & _icl_current_language
These cookies are used to determine the language of the content delivered by the website (WordPress WPML).
(6) cookieconsent_dismissed
This cookie is used to determine whether the user has already dismissed the cookie notice. The notice also disappears if the user clicks ‘yes’.
(7) ga-disable-UA-97568300-1
This cookie is used to determine whether the user has disabled Google Analytics.
(8) wordpress_logged_in_70862c4b813a845949b9961a5c241ec0, wordpress_sec_70862c4b813a845949b9961a5c241ec0, wordpress_test_cookie, wp-settings-1, wp-settings-time-1
These are default WordPress cookies, i.e., cookies that run through the system (WordPress) on which our website is operated. They can be used, for example, to determine whether a registered user has logged in or not.

The following data are stored and transmitted in the cookies:

(1) Language settings
(2) Log-in information

Our website also uses cookies that support analysis of the surfing habits of users.

This makes it possible to obtain the following data:

(1) Search terms entered
(2) Use of website functionality: Data on users who initiate a download

Technical means are used to pseudonymize the data of users collected in this manner. That makes it impossible to use the data to identify visiting users. Such data are not stored together with user’s other personal data.

Visitors to our website are notified of the use of cookies for analytical purposes by a banner and asked to give their consent to having their personal data processed for such purposes. A reference to this privacy statement also appears at the same time. In addition, users are notified that the browser settings make it possible to prevent the storage of cookies.

2. Legal Basis for Processing of Data

Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR provides the legal basis for the use of cookies in connection with the processing of personal data.

Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR provides the legal basis for the use of cookies for analytical purposes in connection with the processing of personal data if the consent of the user has been obtained.

3. Purpose of Processing Data

The purpose of using of cookies is to simplify the use of websites for users. Some of the functions of our website cannot be used without the use of cookies. In the case of these functions, it is necessary to be able to recognize the browser again when changing to a new page. This permits temporary storage of technical data or information required for proper operation of certain features on the computer.

We need cookies for the following applications:

(1) to obtain language settings
(2) to record search terms

The user data collected by these cookies are not used to create user profiles.

Analytics cookies are used to improve the quality of our website and its content. They tell us how our website is being used so we can continually make improvements. More precise descriptions of the function and purpose of cookies can be found in section V.1 above.

These purposes also give rise to our legitimate interest in processing personal data pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

4. Duration of Storage, Possibility of Objection and Elimination

Cookies are stored on the device of the user and sent to our website. The user therefore is in complete control of the use of cookies. By changing the settings of the Internet browser, the transmission of cookies can be deactivated or restricted. Cookies that have already been placed can be disabled at any time. This process can also be automated. If the user chooses to disable cookies, he may not be able to use all of the features of our website.

This will regularly occur when data processed for the purposes of performance of a contract with a specific user or in order to take steps prior to entering into such a contract are no longer required for the purposes of performance of a contract or in order to take steps prior to entering into such a contract. It may also be necessary to store personal data of a party to a contract after entering into such a contract in order to fulfill contractual or legal obligations, including but not limited to the submission of the legally required reports to the Federal Office for Economic Affairs and Export Control and retention of such documentation to comply with legal record keeping requirements.

5. Possibility of Objection and Elimination

Users may cancel their registration at any time. They also have the possibility of having the data stored on them modified at any time. In such cases, users can contact us by e-mail (hsm@utimaco.com) and request erasure or rectification.

(3) if the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you need the personal data to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; and
(4) if you have objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR pending verification of whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override your grounds.

If the processing of your personal data has been restricted, such personal data may, except as regards storage, be processed only with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.

If processing has been restricted as described above, you will be notified by the controller before such restriction is lifted.

4. Right to Erasure

a) Duty to erase

You have the right to require that the controller erase personal data concerning you without undue delay and the controller must then erase such personal data without undue delay if one of the following grounds applies:

(1) The personal data are no longer needed for the purposes for which they were originally collected or otherwise processed;
(2) You have withdrawn the consent to processing given pursuant to of Art. 6(1)(a) or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR and there is no other legal ground for such processing;
(3) You object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for such processing or you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(2) GDPR;
(4) Your personal data were processed unlawfully;

If the controller has disclosed personal data concerning you and is obligated to erase such data pursuant to Art. 17(1) GDPR, the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, must take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers that are processing the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested erasure by such controllers of any links to or copy or replication of such personal data.

c) Exceptions

The right to erasure does not apply if processing is necessary

(1) to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;
(2) to comply with a legal obligation that requires processing under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or to exercise official authority vested in the controller;
(3) for reasons of public interest in the area of the public health pursuant to Art. 9(2)(h) and (i) and Art. 9(3) GDPR;
(4) for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89(1) GDPR insofar as the right referred to in section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of such processing; or
(5) to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

5. Right to Rectification

If you have the right to require that a controller rectify, erase or restrict processing, the controller must notify all recipients to whom personal data concerning you were disclosed of such rectification, erasure or restriction of processing unless notification proves impossible or would entail an unreasonable effort.

You have the right to be notified of such recipients by the controller.

6. Right to data portability

You have right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have made available to a controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit such data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data were provided

(1) if processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR and
(2) processing is carried out by automated means.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have personal data concerning you transmitted directly from one controller to another if technically feasible. This may not be allowed to adversely affect the freedoms and rights of others.

The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data required for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

7. Right to object

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for reasons related to your particular situation on the basis of Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR. This will also apply accordingly as regards profiling based on these provisions.

The controller will then cease to process personal data concerning you unless it is possible to demonstrate compelling legitimate reasons for such processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms or such processing serves to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

If personal data concerning you are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object to the processing of your data for such marketing purposes at any time. This will apply accordingly to any profiling related to such direct marketing activities.

If you object to processing for the purposes of direct marketing, personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for such purposes.

In the context of the use of information society services and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

8. Right to Withdraw Consent under Data Protection Law

You have right to withdraw your consent to having your personal data processed at any time. Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on your consent prior to withdrawal.

9. Automated Individual Decision-Making, Including Profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that legally affects you or entails effects that are of similar importance. This will not apply in the case of any decision that is

(1) necessary for the entry into or performance of a contract between you and the controller,
(2) permissible under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests or
(3) based on your explicit consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9(1) GDPR unless Art. 9(2)(a) or (g) GDPR applies and suitable measures have been taken to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.

In the cases referred to in (1) and (3) above, the controller must implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your point of view and to contest the decision.

10. Right to Lodge Complaints with a Supervisory Authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you are of the opinion that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.

The supervisory authority with which the complaint is lodged will inform the complainant on the progress and the outcome of the complaint including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR.
