1) General Information

The term personal data is defined in the article 4 no. 1 of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). According to it, personal data is all the information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, your real name, your address, your telephone number or your birthdate.

Unless described otherwise in the following sections, principally, no personal data is collected, processed or used upon using our websites.  

2) Legal basis for the processing of the personal data

Provided we obtain your consent for the processing of personal data, Article 6 section 1 lit. a of (GDPR) acts as the legal basis.

In case the processing of your personal data is required to fulfil a contract between you and HOPPECKE, the Article 6 section 1 lit. b of GDPR acts as the legal basis. This also applies to processing procedures that are required to execute the pre-contractual actions.

Provided, processing of your personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation that governs HOPPECKE, Article 6 section 1 lit. c of GDPR acts as the legal basis.

In the event that vital interests of the concerned person or another natural person make the processing of personal data necessary, the Article 6 section 1 lit. d of GDPR acts as the legal basis.

If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of HOPPECKE or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms do not outweigh the former interest, then the Article 6 section 1 lit. f of GDPR acts as the legal basis for the processing. 

3) Data deletion and duration of storage

Your personal data is deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage is inapplicable. Data can furthermore be stored if it was stipulated by the European or national legislative body in regulations, laws or other specifications of the union to which the responsible party is liable. The data is also blocked or deleted if a storage term prescribed by the specified standards expires, unless there is a necessity to continue storing the data to conclude or fulfil a contract.

9) Matomo Analytics services

The information about the use of this website saved in the Matomo cookie is not passed on. The placement of cookies can be prevented by your web browser. Some functions of our website could however be restricted by it.

Initial provider cookies
These types of cookies are placed by the website, which the user is visiting. Only this website may read the information from these cookies.

Third party provider cookies
Cookies of third party providers are placed by organisations, who are not the operators of the website, which the user is visiting. These cookies are used, for example, by marketing companies.

Session cookies
Session cookies are temporary cookies that are stored in the internet browser of the user till the browser window is closed and the session cookies are deleted with it.

Permanent cookies
Permanent cookies are used for repeated visits and stored in the user’s browser for a certain time (generally 1 year or longer). These cookies are not deleted when the browser is closed. This type of cookie is used to reuse the preferences of a user as soon as he comes back to the site. 

11) Connection of services and third party contents

We point out at this point that third party contents (e.g. videos or graphics of other websites) can be implemented within this online content. A prerequisite for the use of these services is that the providers of these contents (hereinafter as “Third Party Providers”) obtain the IP address of the user. The reason for this is that the contents cannot be sent to the browser of the respective user without the IP address and subsequently it would not be possible to display the content.

We have no influence on whether and to what extent the third party providers store the IP address. If we should be informed about this, the users will be notified. 

Share Buttons
In our news section we use so-called "sharing buttons" with the Shariff method.
These buttons establish direct contact between the social network and the visitor only when the latter actively clicks on the "Share" button. If the user is already logged in to a social network, Facebook, Xing and LinkedIn do so without another window. On Twitter, a pop-up window appears in which the text of the tweet can still be edited.

With the Shariff method, HOPPECKE takes the data protection interests of its visitors into account as far as is possible according to the current state of the art.

"Shariff" was developed by specialists from the computer magazine c't to provide more privacy on the net and to replace the usual "share" buttons of social networks.

12) Safety instructions

We undertake all the safety measures to save your personal data in such a way that it is accessible neither to third parties nor to the public. If you should want to get in touch with us by email, we would like to point out to you that the confidentiality of the delivered information cannot be fully guaranteed in this form of communication. We therefore recommend sending us confidential information exclusively by post.

External service providers and partner companies, such as the shipping companies commissioned with the delivery receive your data only if it is necessary for processing your order. In these cases, the scope of the transmitted data is however restricted to the required minimum.
