1. Preamble

Welcome to our website! We attach great importance to protecting your data and privacy, which is why we explain below what kind of data we process, when, for what purpose and on what legal basis. We also explain how the services we offer work, and how the protection of your personal data is guaranteed in the process.

According to Art. 4 (1) GDPR, personal data is all information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person. A natural person is considered identifiable if they can be identified directly or indirectly. More information on this can be found in Art. 4 (1) GDPR, for example.

Insofar as we specify our legitimate interest or the legitimate interest of a third party (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR) as the legal basis for the processing of your personal data, you have the right to object in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR.

We will then no longer process your personal data for the purposes of direct advertising or related profiling.

As a result of an objection, we will not process your personal data for other purposes either, unless we can prove compelling reasons for processing worthy of protection that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. In such a case, you must give reasons for your opposition based on your particular situation.

You can also object to the processing of your personal data for reasons arising from your specific situation, for the purposes of scientific or historical research or for statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89 (1) GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.

We will point out separately in the following sections if there is a right of objection. To exercise this right, please send any objections to: datenschutzbeauftragter@soloplan.de

9. Google

In order to improve the comfort and quality of our service, the following Web services of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA („Google”), have been enabled. Google receives and processes the data created by the use of the corresponding cookies on our website.

a) Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a Web analysis service provided by Google Inc. („Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of your use of the website. The data these cookies provide on your use of this website is usually transmitted to and stored on a Google server located in the US. However, should IP anonymisation be enabled on this website, Google will truncate your IP address before transmission if you are located in a member state of the European Union or in any other state party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the US and be truncated there. On behalf of the website owner, Google will use this data to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on the website activity and to provide additional services associated with the website and Internet use to the website owner. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be combined with any other Google data. You can adjust your browser software correspondingly to prevent the storage of cookies. However, please note that if you do so, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. In addition, you can prevent Google from collecting and processing cookie data related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by clicking on this link and downloading and installing the browser plugin.

In view of the discussion on the use of analysis tools and the transmission of full IP addresses, we would like to point out that this website uses Google Analytics with the extension „_anonymizeIp()”, which means that IP addresses are only processed in truncated form in order to exclude a direct personal reference. Especially for browsers on mobile devices, please click on this link (Google Analytics Opt-out) to prevent the anonymous collection of your data by Google Analytics on this website for your browser with future effect by means of a so-called „opt-out cookie”.

b) Google AdWords Conversion Tracking

This website uses Google AdWords Conversion Tracking, a Web analysis service provided by Google Inc. („Google”). Google AdWords Conversion Tracking also uses cookies that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of your use of the website. The data these cookies provide on your use of this website is transmitted to and stored on a Google server located in the US. Google will use this data to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on the website activity and to provide additional services associated with the website and Internet use to the website owner. Google may also transmit this data to third parties if this is required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google. Under no circumstances will Google associate this data with any other Google data. You can generally prevent the use of cookies if you prohibit the storage of cookies in your browser.

Apart from conversion tracking, the remarketing or „similar audiences” function is used. With the remarketing function, users who have already visited our website are reached by means of a temporary cookie. This way, we can display our advertisements to users of this website who are already interested in our products or services on other websites of the Display Network (see below). In addition, AdWords determines the common interests and characteristics of the users of our website based on the user behaviour on websites that are part of Google’s advertising network („Display Network”) as well as with the help of the contextual search engine. Based on this information, AdWords then finds new potential customers for marketing purposes whose interests and characteristics are similar to those of the users of our website. Target group-specific remarketing is carried out by means of the combined use of cookies, e.g. Google Analytics cookies and Google DoubleClick cookies, in the browsers of the website users.

If you do not want to take part in tracking, you can prevent the installation of cookies using the corresponding setting in your browser software (opt-out option). Or click on the following link and install the plug-in provided there: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. You can also opt out of using cookies by third parties by opening the opt-out page of the Network Advertising Initiative under http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/.

You can find additional information on Google AdWords by clicking on this link: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=en-GB

c) Use of Google Maps

This website uses Google Maps to display map information. When you use Google Maps, Google also processes and uses data regarding the use of the Maps functions by users of the website. You can find additional information on the processing of data by Google in Google’s privacy policy under https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-GB. There, in the data safety centre, you can also adjust your settings so that you can manage and protect your data.

d) Use of a Google tool for the protection of the forms on the website

We use services of Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) to determine whether our contact or newsletter forms are completed by an authorised visitor or by a potential cyberattacker. Google performs checks on the basis of the following data: IP address of the device used, website visited, date and duration of the visit, identification data of the browser type and operating system type used, Google account (if the user is logged in), mouse movements and tasks that require the identification of images. We have a legitimate interest in processing this data in order to ensure the security of our website and to protect ourselves from automated entries (cyberattacks). Further information is available under the following link: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-GB. Click on the following link in case you want to object: https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated.

10. OpenStreetMap

On our website, we have integrated map sections from the online map tool „OpenStreetMap”. This is a so-called open-source mapping that we can access via an API (interface). This function is provided by the OpenStreetMap Foundation, St John’s Innovation Centre, Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WS, United Kingdom. When you use this map function, your IP address is passed on to OpenStreetMap. In this privacy policy, you learn why we use functions of the OpenStreetMap tool, where we store which data and how you can prevent data from being stored.

Facebook provides so-called Page Insights for our Facebook fan page: https://www.facebook.com/business/a/page/page-insights. This is summarised data that provides information on how people are interacting with our page. Page Insights can be based on personal data that is collected in relation to a visit or interaction of persons on or with our page and in relation to the content provided.

The user profiles can then, in turn, be used to display advertisements within and outside of the platforms that are assumed to match the users’ interests. This data is collected via cookies that are stored on your device. The user profiles can also be used to store data that is independent of the devices used by the user; especially if the user is a member of the platforms concerned and is logged in to them.

Our legitimate interest lies in the optimised presentation of our offer, in effectively informing and communicating with customers and interested parties as well as in the targeted placement of advertisements. Please note that we have no influence on the collection of data and its further processing by Facebook. As a result, we cannot provide any information about the extent to which data is stored as well as where and for how long it is stored by Facebook. Furthermore, we cannot make any statements about the extent to which Facebook complies with existing deletion obligations, which evaluations and links to the data are carried out by Facebook and to whom the data is passed on by Facebook.

Furthermore, data can also be stored in the user profiles independently of the devices you use. This is usually the case if you are a member of the respective platforms and are logged in to them.

3.2 Data processing during first contact

We ourselves collect personal data when you contact us, e.g. via a contact form or through a messenger service such as Facebook Messenger.

This data is stored by us in order to process the enquiry and for subsequent questions. We will, under no circumstances, pass your data on to third parties without your consent. The legal basis for the data processing is our legitimate interest in replying to your enquiry in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. f of the GDPR and, if applicable, Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR, if your request is aimed at the conclusion of a contract. Your data is deleted after the final processing of your enquiry, provided that this does not conflict with any statutory storage obligations.

2. Purposes and legal basis of the processing

The data we received from you are only processed for the purposes for which you have transmitted it to us. The processing for other purposes can only be considered if the legal requirements in accordance with Art. 6 (4) GDPR are met. We will, of course, comply with the resulting information obligations according to Art. 13 (3) and Art. 14 (4) GDPR.

We process your personal data in accordance with the requirements set in the European General Data Protection Regulation (EU-GDPR) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), insofar as this is necessary for the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship with us. The legal basis for this is Art. 88 GDPR in conjunction with § 26 BDSG (new) as well as, if applicable, Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR for the initiation or implementation of contractual relationships.

If you expressively consent to the processing of your personal data for certain purposes, the lawfulness of this processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. A given consent can be revoked at any time, with effect for the future. Should the consent also apply to the processing of special categories of personal data in accordance with Art. 9 GDPR, we will expressly point this out to you in advance. If the processing of your personal data is necessary to defend against legal claims asserted against us in connection with the employment relationship, this processing is based on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.

If necessary and legally permissible, we process your data beyond the actual contractual purposes in order to fulfil legal obligations in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR. In addition, processing may be carried out to protect the our legitimate interests or third parties in accordance with Art 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. We will inform you separately, indicating the legitimate interest, insofar as this is required by law. If your personal data has been processed on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. GDPR to protect the legitimate interest you have the right, in accordance with At 21 GDPR, to object to processing of your data for reasons arising from your particular situation, at any time. In such a case, we will not process your data unless we can prove compelling legitimate reasons for processing. These reasons have to outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing has to serve to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

In the event that an employment relationship is established between you and us, we can, in accordance with Art. 88 GDPR in conjunction with § 26 BDSG (new) process the personal data already received from you for the purpose of the employment relationship, insofar as this is required for the execution or termination of the employment relationship or for the exercise or fulfilment of the rights and obligations of the employees’ interest representation resulting from legislation or collective labour agreements, works or service agreements.

3. Data storage period

We process your data as long as it is necessary for the decision regarding your application. The personal data or application documents provided by you will be deleted a maximum of six months after the end of the application procedure unless longer storage is legally required or permitted.

Your data will only be stored beyond the above-mentioned purposes if we are subject to various storage and documentation obligations arising from the German Commercial Code (HGB) and The Fiscal Code of Germany (AO). The periods of storage or documentation prescribed there range from two to ten years.

Lastly, the duration of storage also depends on the statutory limitation periods, which, for example, in accordance with sections 195 et seq. of the German Civil Code (BGB), are generally three years, but in certain cases may be up to thirty years.

In principle, we perform an examination of data at the end of a calendar year with regard to the necessity of further processing. Given the volume of data, this examination is carried out for specific data types and processing purposes.

If you have given your consent to the storage of your personal data for a longer period of time, we will store it in accordance with your consent.

If the application process results in employment, your data will continue to be stored to the extent necessary and permissible and then transferred to the personnel file.

Within our company, we only pass on your personal data to those areas and persons who require this data to fulfil contractual and legal obligations or to implement our legitimate interests.

7. Data sources

Only the personal data you provided us with for the purpose of establishing contact or your application is processed.

8. Transfer to a third country

A data transfer to a third country (outside the European Union/European Economic Area) only takes place insofar it is necessary or legally required for the execution of the contractual relationship or if you have given your consent. At the moment, we do not transfer your personal data to a service provider outside the European Economic Area.

9. Provision of personal data

As a rule, the provision of personal data for the purpose of establishing, implementing or fulfilling a contract or for pre-contractual measures is neither required by law nor by contract. Thus, you are not obliged to provide information on personal data. Please note, however, that these are usually necessary for the decision to conclude a contract, for the fulfilment of a contract or for pre-contractual measures. If you do not provide us with any personal data, we may not be able to make a decision in the context of contractual measures.

We do not use purely automated processing to make a decision.

2. Purposes and legal basis of the processing

The data we receive from you will only be processed for the purposes for which you have transmitted it to us. The processing for other purposes can only be considered if the legal requirements in accordance with Art. 6 (4) GDPR are met. We will, of course, comply with the resulting information obligations according to Art. 13 (3) and Art. 14 (4) GDPR.

We process your personal data in accordance with the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG).

If you expressively consent to the processing of your personal data for certain purposes, the lawfulness of this processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. A given consent can be revoked at any time, with effect for the future. Should the consent also apply to the processing of special categories of personal data in accordance with Art. 9 GDPR, we will expressly point this out to you in advance. If it is necessary to provide personal data as part of the initiation or implementation of a contractual relationship or as part of the implementation of pre-contractual measures, this is legitimised by Art 6 (1) lit. b GDPR.

If necessary and legally permissible, we process your data beyond the actual contractual purposes to fulfil legal obligations in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR. In addition, processing may be carried out to protect the our legitimate interests or third parties in accordance with Art 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. We will inform you separately, indicating the legitimate interest, insofar as this is required by law. If your personal data has been processed on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. GDPR to protect the legitimate interest you have the right, in accordance with At 21 GDPR, to object to processing of your data for reasons arising from your particular situation, at any time. In such a case, we will not process your data unless we can prove compelling legitimate reasons for processing. These reasons have to outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing has to serve to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

3. Data storage period

We process the data as long as required for the respective purpose.

As soon as your data is no longer required for the above-mentioned purposes or you revoke your consent, the data will be deleted by us.

Your data will only be stored beyond the above-mentioned purposes if we are subject to various storage and documentation obligations arising from the German Commercial Code (HGB) and The Fiscal Code of Germany (AO). The periods of storage or documentation prescribed there range from two to ten years.

Lastly, the duration of storage also depends on the statutory limitation periods, which, for example, in accordance with sections 195 et seq. of the German Civil Code (BGB), are generally three years, but in certain cases may be up to thirty years.

In principle, we perform an examination of data at the end of a calendar year with regard to the necessity of further processing. Given the volume of data, this examination is carried out for specific data types and processing purposes.
