3. General information and mandatory information

Data protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to personally identify you. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and how we use it, as well as the purpose for which it is used.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) can have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data from third-party access is not possible.

Responsible party notice

The responsible party for data processing on this website is:

AN System GmbH

Walter-Bothe-Straße 1-7

D-68169 Mannheim

Telephone: 0621 72875875

Fax: 0621 72732437

Email: info@ansystemgmbh.de

The responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).

Storage period

Unless a specific storage period is specified in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing the data no longer applies. If you request deletion, revoke your consent to data processing, or if the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after completing your request), the data will be deleted. Legal storage obligations remain unaffected.

Legal basis for data processing on this website

If you have given your consent to data processing, we process your personal data based on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR if special data categories according to Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed. In the case of express consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If consent has been given for the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g. via device fingerprinting) under TTDSG, data processing is additionally based on § 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time. If your data is necessary for the performance of a contract or for pre-contractual measures, data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data if it is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing can also be based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The legal basis will be specified in the relevant paragraphs of this privacy policy.

Notice of data transfer to the USA and other third countries

We use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries that do not have a level of data protection equivalent to that of the EU. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these third countries and processed there. Please note that these countries may not guarantee a level of data protection comparable to the EU. For example, US companies are required to hand over personal data to security authorities without you, as a data subject, being able to take legal action against this. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. intelligence agencies) may process, analyze, and permanently store your data located on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence over these processing activities.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. The legality of data processing performed before the revocation remains unaffected.

Right to object to data collection in special cases and direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object, for reasons that arise from your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis for processing is outlined in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims (objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR).

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

Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, especially in the member state of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract automatically transferred to you or to a third party in a standard, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.

Information, deletion, and correction

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to free information at any time about your stored personal data, its origin, the recipients and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data. For further questions on personal data, you can contact us at any time.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to request this. This right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:

– If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. In the event of such verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data for the duration of the verification.

– If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, but you do not want it deleted and instead request restriction of use of the data.

– If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims.

– If you have filed an objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance between your and our interests is necessary. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data – apart from its storage – may only be used with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of a major public interest of the European Union or a member state.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. An encrypted connection is indicated by the browser’s address bar changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock icon in your browser bar.

When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transfer to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to advertising emails

We hereby expressly prohibit the use of contact information published in the context of website legal notice requirements with regard to sending promotional and informational materials not expressly requested. The website operator reserves the right to take specific legal action if unsolicited advertising material, such as email spam, is received.

The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of their services. If consent has been obtained for the storage of cookies and similar tracking technologies, the processing is based exclusively on this consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TTDSG). The consent can be revoked at any time.

You can configure your browser to be informed about the setting of cookies and to decide on an individual basis whether to accept them or to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, or to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your request is related to the performance 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 responding to your request effectively (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) if requested; the latter can be revoked at any time. The data entered in the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Legal storage obligations remain unaffected.
