You will find detailed information on this in the following data protection declaration.

You can object to this analysis. We will inform you about the objection options in this data protection declaration.

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

When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This data protection declaration explains which data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.

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

The responsible body for data processing on this website is:

BAUMANN Engineering OHG
Allmendstraße 5
D-79336 Herbolzheim

Telephone: +49 7643 933913-0
E-mail: datenschutz@baumann-engineering.de

The responsible body is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, e-mail addresses or similar).

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. An informal notification by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

If data processing is 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 arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this data protection declaration. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (objection according to Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct advertising, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected with such direct advertising. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for the purpose of direct advertising (objection according to Art. 21 Para. 2 GDPR).

In the event of violations of the GDPR, those affected have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, their place of work or the place of the alleged violation. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible party, this will only take place if it is technically feasible.

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or requests that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data at any time. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notice for this and for further questions on the subject of personal data.

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notice. 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 verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
• If the processing of your personal data was / is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
• 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 the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
• If you have lodged an objection in accordance with Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests outweigh the other, 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 processed with your consent or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a member state.

The use of contact data published as part of the legal notice obligation for sending unsolicited advertising and information materials is hereby prohibited. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as spam e-mails.

The internet pages partly use so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain any viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit.

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

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions that you have requested (e.g. shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for analyzing your surfing behavior) are stored, these are treated separately in this data protection declaration.

This website uses the cookie consent tool from Cybot A/S, Havnegade 39, 1058 Copenhagen, Denmark “cookiebot.com”. The purpose of the processing is to obtain and document consent for the storage of certain cookies on your end device or for the use of certain technologies, as well as the technical enabling of a revocation of granted consent. In this context, your browser may transmit personal data to cookiebot.com. Furthermore, cookiebot.com stores a cookie in your browser in order to be able to assign the consent you have given or its revocation to you. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Para. 1 a) GDPR. The data collected in this way is stored until you ask us to delete it, delete the cookiebot.com cookie yourself or the purpose for data storage no longer applies. Mandatory statutory retention requirements remain unaffected. Further information can be found in the cookiebot.com data protection declaration at: https://usercentrics.com/de/datenschutzerklaerung/

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

• Browser type and browser version
• operating system used
• Referrer URL
• Hostname of the accessing computer
• Time of the server request
• IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources.

This data is collected on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website – for this purpose, the server log files must be recorded.

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

The data entered in the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal notification by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

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 request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your request, including all personal data resulting from it (name, request), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. 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 is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR) and / or on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR), as we have a legitimate interest in the effective processing of requests addressed to us.

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 statutory provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

We collect, process and use personal data only to the extent that it is necessary for the establishment, content design or modification of the legal relationship (inventory data). This is done on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR, which allows the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures. We collect, process and use personal data about the use of our internet pages (usage data) only to the extent that this is necessary to enable the user to use the service or to bill for it.

The customer and contract data stored by you 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 order has been processed). We also store and use your data for a reasonable period of time after the end of the order in order to keep you informed about our services and offers and to send you information for this purpose. This is done on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in informing its customers about its offers and services even after the end of the contract. Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social networks. The specific social networks we use can be found below.

Social networks such as Facebook, Xing, etc., can generally analyze your user behavior extensively when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g., like buttons or advertising banners). Visiting our social media presences triggers numerous data protection-relevant processing operations. Specifically:

• If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected even if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In this case, data collection occurs, for example, via cookies stored on your device or by recording your IP address.
• With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, interest-based advertising can be displayed to you within and outside the respective social media presence. If you have an account with the respective social network, interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices where you are or have been logged in.

Please also note that we cannot fully comprehend all processing operations on the social media portals. Depending on the provider, further processing operations may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. For details, please refer to the terms of use and data protection regulations of the respective social media portals.

Our social media presences are intended to ensure an informative presence on the internet. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. In necessary cases, the legal basis is also Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on different legal bases, which must be specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g., consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR).

When you visit one of our social media presences, we are jointly responsible with the operator of the social media platform for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. You can generally assert your rights (information, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and complaint) both against us and against the operator of the respective social media portal.

Please note that despite joint responsibility with the social media portal operators, we do not have full influence over the data processing operations of the social media portals. Our capabilities are largely determined by the corporate policy of the respective provider.

Data collected directly by us via the social media presence will be deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose for their storage ceases to apply, you request us to delete them, you revoke your consent for storage, or the purpose for data storage ceases to apply. Stored cookies remain on your device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions – especially retention periods – remain unaffected.

We have no influence over the storage duration of your data, which is stored by the operators of social networks for their own purposes. For details, please inquire directly with the operators of the social networks (e.g., in their privacy policy, see below).

Videos from the provider YouTube are embedded on our website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. YouTube uses cookies for data collection and statistical data analysis. These statistics allow YouTube to evaluate how often a video has been viewed, whether the video was watched on YouTube, or on which websites the video was embedded. To protect your privacy, we only use embedded YouTube videos in an extended data protection mode. This means that YouTube does not store cookies for a user who views a website with an embedded YouTube video but does not click on the video to play it. If the video is played, YouTube may store cookies on the user’s computer, but no personal information about the playback of embedded videos is stored. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR. Further information on data protection by YouTube (Google) can be found at www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

This website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”. These are text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

The storage of Google Analytics cookies and the use of this analysis tool are based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both its web offering and its advertising.

IP Anonymization

We have activated the IP anonymization function on this website. This means that your IP address will be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activities, and to provide other services related to website and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

Data Processing Agreement

We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

Demographic Features in Google Analytics

This website uses the “demographic features” function of Google Analytics. This allows reports to be created that contain statements about the age, gender, and interests of website visitors. This data originates from Google’s interest-based advertising and from third-party visitor data. This data cannot be assigned to a specific person. You can deactivate this function at any time via the ad settings in your Google account or generally prohibit the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in the section “Objection to Data Collection”.

This website uses “Google Tag Manager”. Google Tag Manager is a tool for managing website tags. The tool is a cookie-less domain and does not collect any personal data. The tool ensures the triggering of other tags, which in turn may collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If a deactivation has been made at the domain or cookie level, this remains valid for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager ( http://www.google.de/tagmanager/use-policy.html ).

We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter “reCAPTCHA”) on our websites. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).

reCAPTCHA is intended to check whether data entry on our websites (e.g., in a contact form) is performed by a human or by an automated program. For this purpose, reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various information (e.g., IP address, duration of the website visitor’s stay on the website, or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.

The reCAPTCHA analyses run completely in the background. Website visitors are not informed that an analysis is taking place.

Data processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web offerings from abusive automated espionage and SPAM.

Further information on Google reCAPTCHA and Google’s privacy policy can be found at the following links: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/android.html.

We use the LinkedIn Analytics and LinkedIn Ads services of LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland, on our website. With the help of these technologies, personalized advertisements can be displayed to visitors of this website on LinkedIn. For this purpose, the LinkedIn Insight Tag is integrated into this website, establishing a connection to the LinkedIn server if you visit this website and are simultaneously logged into your LinkedIn account. Furthermore, it becomes possible to create anonymous reports on the performance of advertisements and information on website interaction. It cannot be ruled out that your personal data may also be transferred to LinkedIn Corporation, based in the USA. LinkedIn has certified itself under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework to comply with the data protection level applicable in the EU. The certificate can be viewed at https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/.

The legal basis for data processing is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR. You can revoke your given consent at any time with future effect by removing the checked box for LinkedIn “here”.

In LinkedIn’s privacy policy at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy, you will find further information on data collection and data usage, as well as the options and rights for protecting your privacy. If you are logged into LinkedIn, you can deactivate data collection at any time via the following link: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/enhanced-advertising

Hosting
Matomo is hosted exclusively on our own servers in Germany. All analysis data remains with us and is not passed on to third parties.

Further information on data processing by Matomo can be found at: https://matomo.org/privacy/.
