Privacy

The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your

personal data as confidential and process it in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and

this data protection declaration.

Various types of personal data are collected when you use this website.

Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This

data protection declaration explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how

and for what purpose this is done.

We would like to point out that data transmission via the internet (e.g. when communicating by email)

may have security gaps. As such, it is not possible to completely protect all data against access by third

parties.

Note on the responsible body

The responsible body for this website’s data processing is:

A&C UV-Lamps GmbH

Mendelstraße 11

48149 Münster

VAT no: DE259182427

Tax no: 336/5777/1338

Phone: +49 0251-980-2249

Email: post@uvlamp.de

The responsible body is the natural or legal person who either alone or jointly with others decides on

the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email address)

.

Storage period

Unless a specific storage period has been specified in this data protection declaration,

your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing it no longer applies. If you submit a

legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing,

your data will be deleted provided we do not have other legally permissible reasons for storing

your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the

latter case, the deletion will take place once these reasons no longer apply.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can, at any time, revoke

consent that you have already given. The legality of the data processing up until revocation

will remain unaffected by the revocation.

Right to object to data collection in special cases and

for direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data processing takes place based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e) or f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons that arise from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis for processing is outlined in this data protection declaration. If you object, we will no longer process the personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate that there are compelling, legitimate reasons for its processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or unless the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (objection according to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR).

If your personal data is processed in order to carry out direct marketing, you have the right to object, at any time, to the processing of personal data that concerns you for the purpose of this marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to this direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection according to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, the person concerned will have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, place of employment

or the location of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other

administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we automatically process on the basis of your consent or fulfilment of a contract

delivered, either to yourself or to a third party, in a standard machine-readable format

. If you request direct transfer of the data to another person assuming responsibility,

this will only be done if technically feasible.

Information, deletion and rectification

Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions, you always have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient, the purpose of the data processing and, if necessary, a right to have this data rectified or deleted. You can contact us at any time if you have any further questions on the subject of personal data.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.

You can contact us about this at any time. The right to restriction of processing exists in

the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to review this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.

If the processing of your personal data happened/is happening unlawfully, you can ask for the data processing to be restricted instead of having the data deleted.

If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted instead of being deleted.

If you have an objection according to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, your interests must be weighed against ours. If it is not yet clear whose interests have higher priority, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data

– its storage aside – may only be processed with your consent or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or because it is of significant public interest to the European Union or a member state.

Cookies

Our website uses so-called ‘cookies’. Cookies are small text files and do not damage

your device. They are either temporarily stored for the duration of a session

(session cookies) or permanently stored (permanent cookies) on your device. Session cookies

are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or your web browser automatically deletes them.

In some cases, cookies from third-party companies may also be stored on your device when you

enter our site (third-party cookies). These enable us or you to use certain

third-party services (e.g. cookies for processing payment services).

Cookies have different functions. Many cookies are a technical necessity, as certain

website functions would not work without them (e.g. the shopping basket function or display of videos). Other cookies are used to evaluate user behaviour or to display advertising.

Cookies that are necessary for the electronic communication process (necessary cookies),

to provide certain desired functions (e.g. functional cookies for the

shopping basket function) or to optimise the website (e.g. cookies to measure the web audience)

are stored on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit.f) GDPR, unless a different

legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage

of cookies for the error-free technical and optimised provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies has been requested, the cookies concerned are stored exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR); this consent can be withdrawn at any time.

You can set up your browser so that you are informed about cookie settings and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and activate automatic deletion of cookies when you close the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be restricted.

within the scope of this data protection declaration and, if necessary, ask for consent.

Contact form

If you send us enquiries using the contact form, your details from the enquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit.b) GDPR, provided that your request relates to

the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of enquiries that are sent to us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR), or on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) GDPR), provided that this has been requested.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete it,

revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies

(e.g. after your enquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Enquiries by email, phone or fax

If you contact us by email, phone or fax, your enquiry,

including all personal data that this contains (name, enquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing it. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit.b) GDPR, provided that your request relates to

the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of enquiries that are sent to us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR), or on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) GDPR), provided that this has been requested.

The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you ask us to delete it,

revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies

(e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

5. Newsletter

Newsletter data

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on our website, we need an email

address from you, as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. Further data will not be collected or only done on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

The processing of the data entered in the newsletter registration form occurs exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR). You can at any time revoke your consent to the storage of the data and the email address and their use for sending the newsletter through options such as the ‘Unsubscribe’ link in the newsletter. The legality of the data processing operations that have already taken place remains unaffected by such revocation.

The data you have stored with us for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us until you

unsubscribe from the newsletter, through us or the newsletter service provider, and is deleted from the newsletter distribution list after the newsletter is unsubscribed from or after it has ceased to serve a purpose. We reserve the right to delete or block email addresses from our newsletter distribution list at our own discretion within the framework of our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit.f) GDPR.

After you have been removed from the newsletter distribution list, your email address will, if necessary,

be blacklisted with us or with the newsletter service provider in order to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data.

This serves both your interest and our interest in compliance with the legal requirements for sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit.f) GDPR). There is no time limit for blacklisting. You can object to this storage provided that your interests outweigh our legitimate interests.
