Our privacy policy should be easy to read and understand both for the public and for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terms used in advance.

In this privacy statement, we use the following terms, among others:

Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter “data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more particular characteristics that are an expression of the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller.

Processing is any process carried out with or without the aid of automated processes or any such series of processes in connection with personal data, such as collecting, organizing, storing, adapting or modifying, reading, querying, using, disclosing through transmission, dissemination or any other form of provision, reconciliation or linking, restriction, deletion or destruction.

Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting their future processing.

Profiling is any type of automated processing of personal data that consists of using this personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects relating to the work performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, whereabouts or changes of location of that natural person.

Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that this additional information is stored separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures which ensure that the personal data is not assigned to an identified or identifiable natural person.

The person responsible or responsible for processing is the natural or legal person, authority, agency or other body which, alone or together with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union law or the law of the Member States, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union law or the law of the Member States.

Contract processor is a natural or legal person, authority, agency or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the person responsible.

The recipient is a natural or legal person, authority, institution or other body to which personal data is disclosed, regardless of whether it is a third party or not. However, public authorities that may receive personal data as part of a specific investigation mandate under Union or Member State law are not considered recipients.

A third party is a natural or legal person, authority, agency or body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor and the persons who, under the direct responsibility of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data.

Consent is any expression of will given voluntarily by the data subject in an informed and unequivocal manner in the form of a statement or other unequivocal affirmative action by which the data subject indicates that he or she agrees to the processing of personal data concerning him or her.

The Internet pages of the FINEXITY use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored and stored on a computer system via an Internet browser.

Numerous websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters through which websites and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the websites and servers visited to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, FINEXITY can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized for the user. As already mentioned, cookies enable us to recognize users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For example, the user of a website that uses cookies does not have to re-enter his login data every time he visits the website, because this is taken over by the website and the cookie stored on the user's computer system. Another example is the cookie from a shopping cart in an online shop. The online shop uses a cookie to remember the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart.

The data subject can prevent cookies from being set by our website at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. In addition, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.

This cookie policy was created and updated by the company Cookiefirst.com.

The FINEXITY website collects a series of general data and information when a data subject or automated system calls up the website. This general data and information is stored in the server's log files. The (1) browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses our website (so-called referrer), (4) the sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and Information that serves to avert threats in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using these general data and information, the FINEXITY does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is required to (1) correctly deliver the content of our website, (2) to optimize the content of our website and advertising for it, (3) to ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. FINEXITY therefore analyzes this anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data in the server log files is stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

The data subject has the option of registering on the controller's website by providing personal data. Which personal data is transmitted to the person responsible for processing is determined by the respective input mask that is used for registration. The personal data entered by the data subject is collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the person responsible for processing and for its own purposes. The person responsible for processing may arrange for the transfer to one or more order processors, such as a parcel service provider, who also uses the personal data exclusively for internal use attributable to the controller.

By registering on the website of the person responsible for processing, the IP address assigned by the data subject's Internet service provider (ISP), the date and time of registration are also stored. This data is stored in view of the fact that this is the only way to prevent misuse of our services and, if necessary, enables this data to solve crimes committed. In this respect, the storage of this data is necessary to secure the person responsible for processing. In principle, this data will not be passed on to third parties unless there is a legal obligation to do so or the transfer is for law enforcement purposes.

The registration of the data subject, voluntarily providing personal data, enables the controller to offer the data subject content or services which, due to the nature of the matter, can only be offered to registered users. Registered persons are free to change the personal data provided during registration at any time or to have them completely deleted from the data set of the person responsible for processing.

The controller shall provide any data subject with information on request at any time as to which personal data is stored about the data subject. Furthermore, the person responsible for processing corrects or deletes personal data at the request or notice of the data subject, provided that there are no legal storage requirements to the contrary. All employees of the person responsible for processing are available to the data subject as contact persons in this context.

On the FINEXITY website, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our enterprise's newsletter. The input mask used for this purpose shows which personal data is transmitted to the person responsible for processing when ordering the newsletter.

FINEXITY informs its customers and business partners regularly by means of a newsletter about enterprise offers. In principle, the data subject can only receive our company's newsletter if (1) the data subject has a valid e-mail address and (2) the data subject registers to receive the newsletter. For legal reasons, a confirmation email will be sent to the e-mail address entered by a data subject for the first time for sending the newsletter using a double opt-in procedure. This confirmation email is used to check whether the owner of the email address has authorized the receipt of the newsletter as the person concerned.

When signing up for the newsletter, we also store the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) of the computer system used by the data subject at the time of registration, as well as the date and time of registration. The collection of this data is necessary in order to be able to trace the (possible) misuse of a data subject's email address at a later date and therefore serves to provide legal protection for the person responsible for processing.

The personal data collected as part of a subscription to the newsletter is used exclusively to send our newsletter. In addition, subscribers to the newsletter could be informed by e-mail if this is necessary to operate the newsletter service or to register in this regard, as could be the case in the event of changes to the newsletter offer or if technical conditions change. There is no transfer of personal data collected as part of the newsletter service to third parties. The subscription to our newsletter can be cancelled by the person concerned at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data that the data subject has given us for sending the newsletter can be withdrawn at any time. For the purpose of withdrawing consent, there is a corresponding link in every newsletter. It is also possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time directly on the website of the person responsible for processing or to inform the person responsible for processing this in another way.

The FINEXITY newsletter contains so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in such emails, which are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and log file analysis. As a result, a statistical evaluation of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns can be carried out. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, FINEXITY can see whether and when an e-mail was opened by a data subject and which links in the e-mail were called up by the data subject.

Such personal data collected via the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters is stored and evaluated by the person responsible for processing in order to optimize newsletter delivery and to adapt the content of future newsletters even better to the interests of the data subject. This personal data will not be shared with third parties. Data subjects are entitled at any time to withdraw the relevant separate declaration of consent submitted via the double opt-in procedure. After a revocation, this personal data will be deleted by the person responsible for processing. FINEXITY automatically interprets a cancellation from receiving the newsletter as a revocation.

Based on legal regulations, the FINEXITY website contains information that enables a quick electronic contact with our company, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a data subject contacts the controller by email or via a contact form, the personal data provided by the data subject is automatically stored. Such personal data provided voluntarily by a data subject to the controller will be stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties.

The comments posted on the FINEXITY blog can generally be subscribed to by third parties. In particular, it is possible for a commentator to subscribe to the comments following their comment on a specific blog post.

If a data subject opts for the option to subscribe to comments, the person responsible for processing sends an automatic confirmation email to check in a double opt-in process whether the owner of the email address provided has really opted for this option. You can cancel the option to subscribe to comments at any time.

The controller processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the storage purpose or if this has been provided for by the European legislator of directives and regulations or another legislator in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.

If the storage purpose ceases to apply or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator of directives and regulations or another competent legislator expires, the personal data will be blocked or deleted routinely and in accordance with legal requirements.

The person responsible for processing collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of processing the application process. Processing can also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant submits corresponding application documents electronically, for example by e-mail or via a web form on the website, to the person responsible for processing. If the person responsible for processing concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with legal requirements. If the person responsible for processing does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that deletion does not conflict with any other legitimate interests of the controller. Other legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a burden of proof in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

The person responsible for processing has integrated Facebook components on this website. Facebook is a social network. A social network is a social meeting place operated on the Internet, an online community that usually allows users to communicate with each other and interact in virtual space. A social network can serve as a platform for exchanging opinions and experiences or enables the Internet community to provide personal or company-related information. Facebook allows users of the social network, among other things, to create private profiles, upload photos and connect via friend requests.

The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. If a data subject lives outside the USA or Canada, the person responsible for processing personal data is Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

Each time you access one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the person responsible for processing and on which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-in) has been integrated, the Internet browser on the data subject's information technology system is automatically prompted by the respective Facebook component to download a presentation of the corresponding Facebook component from Facebook. A complete overview of all Facebook plug-ins can be found at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=de_DE be retrieved. As part of this technical process, Facebook becomes aware of which specific subpage of our website is visited by the data subject.

If the data subject is logged in to Facebook at the same time, Facebook recognizes which specific sub-page of our website the data subject visits each time the data subject accesses our website and for the entire duration of the respective stay on our website. This information is collected by the Facebook component and assigned by Facebook to the respective Facebook account of the person concerned. If the data subject clicks on one of the Facebook buttons integrated on our website, such as the “Like” button, or if the data subject makes a comment, Facebook assigns this information to the data subject's personal Facebook user account and stores this personal data.

Facebook receives information via the Facebook component that the data subject has visited our website whenever the data subject is logged in to Facebook at the same time as accessing our website; this takes place regardless of whether the data subject clicks on the Facebook component or not. If the data subject does not want this information to be transmitted to Facebook in this way, they can prevent the transmission by logging out of their Facebook account before accessing our website.

The data policy published by Facebook, which is available at https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/ is available, provides information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by Facebook. It also explains which settings Facebook offers to protect the privacy of the data subject. There are also various applications available that make it possible to suppress data transmission to Facebook. Such applications can be used by the data subject to suppress data transmission to Facebook.

The person responsible for processing has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymization function) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analysis service. Web analysis is the collection, collection and evaluation of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. Among other things, a web analysis service collects data about which website a data subject came to a website from (so-called referrer), which sub-pages of the website were accessed or how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. Web analysis is primarily used to optimize a website and to analyze the cost-benefit of Internet advertising.

The operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

The person responsible for processing uses the addition “_gat” for web analysis via Google Analytics. _anonymizeIp”. By means of this addition, the IP address of the data subject's Internet connection is abbreviated and anonymized by Google if access to our websites is from a member state of the European Union or from another state party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze visitor flows on our website. Google uses the data and information obtained, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us, which show the activities on our websites, and to provide other services related to the use of our website.

Google Analytics places a cookie on the data subject's information technology system. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Google is able to analyze the use of our website. Each time you access one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the person responsible for processing and on which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, the Internet browser on the data subject's information technology system is automatically prompted by the respective Google Analytics component to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical process, Google gains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which Google uses, among other things, to understand the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently to enable commission statements.

The cookie is used to store personal information, such as the access time, the location from which access was made and the frequency of visits to our website by the data subject. Each time you visit our website, this personal data, including the IP address of the Internet connection used by the data subject, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may share this personal data collected via the technical process with third parties.

As already described above, the data subject can prevent cookies from being set by our website at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the data subject's information technology system. In addition, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.

In addition, the data subject has the option of objecting to and preventing the collection of data generated by Google Analytics relating to the use of this website and to the processing of this data by Google. To do this, the data subject must use a browser add-on under the link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout download and install. This browser add-on tells Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data and information about visits to websites may be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered an objection by Google. If the data subject's information technology system is deleted, formatted or reinstalled at a later date, the data subject must reinstall the browser add-on to deactivate Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the data subject or another person within their sphere of control, it is possible to reinstall or reactivate the browser add-on.

The controller has integrated Google AdWords on this website. Google AdWords is an Internet advertising service that allows the advertiser to place ads on Google's search engine results and on the Google advertising network. With Google AdWords, an advertiser can predefine specific keywords that help an ad be displayed in Google search results only when the user uses the search engine to retrieve a keyword-relevant search result. In the Google Advertising Network, ads are distributed on relevant websites using an automatic algorithm, taking into account the previously defined keywords.

The operating company of Google AdWords is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

When a data subject accesses our website via a Google ad, Google stores a conversion cookie in the data subject's information technology system.

The definition of cookies is explained above. A conversion cookie loses its validity after 30 days and is not used to identify the person concerned. If the cookie has not expired, the conversion cookie is used to check whether certain sub-pages, such as the shopping cart of an online shop system, have been accessed on our website. The conversion cookie allows both Google and the controller to understand whether a person who has reached an AdWords ad on our website is generating sales, i.e. has completed or canceled a sale of goods. The data and information collected using the conversion cookie is used by Google to create visit statistics for our website. These visit statistics are used to determine the total number of users who were served via AdWords ads, to determine the success or failure of each AdWords ad, and to optimize our AdWords ads in the future. Neither our company nor other Google AdWords advertisers receive information from Google that can identify the data subject.

The conversion cookie stores personal information, e.g. the websites visited by the data subject. Each time you visit our website, personal data, including the IP address of the Internet access used by the data subject, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may share this personal data collected as part of the technical process with third parties.

The data subject can prevent cookies from being set by our website at any time, as stated above, by setting the Internet browser used accordingly and thus permanently refuse to set cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from placing a conversion cookie on the data subject's information technology system. In addition, a cookie set by Google AdWords can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.

The data subject has the option to object to interest-based advertising from Google. Therefore, the data subject must use the link from each of the browsers used http://www.google.de/settings/ads access it and make the desired settings.

Operating company of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

DoubleClick by Google transfers data to the DoubleClick server with every impression as well as with clicks or other activities. Each of these data transfers triggers a cookie request to the data subject's browser. If the browser accepts this request, DoubleClick sets a cookie on the data subject's information technology system. What cookies are has already been explained above. The purpose of the cookie is to optimize and display advertising. The cookie is used, among other things, to place and display user-relevant advertising and to create reports on advertising campaigns or to improve them. The cookie is also used to prevent multiple displays of the same advertisement.

DoubleClick uses a cookie ID, which is required to complete the technical process. The cookie ID is required, for example, to display an ad in a browser. DoubleClick can also use the cookie ID to record which advertisements have already been displayed in a browser in order to avoid duplication. DoubleClick also allows DoubleClick to record conversions using the cookie ID. Conversions are recorded, for example, when a user has previously been shown a DoubleClick ad and then makes a purchase on the advertiser's website using the same Internet browser.

A DoubleClick cookie does not contain any personal data. However, a DoubleClick cookie may contain additional campaign identifiers. A campaign ID is used to identify the campaigns with which the user has already been in contact.

Each time you access one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the person responsible for processing and on which a DoubleClick component has been integrated, the Internet browser on the data subject's information technology system is automatically prompted by the respective DoubleClick component to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online advertising and billing of commissions. As part of this technical process, Google receives information that Google also uses to create commission statements. Among other things, Google can understand that the person concerned has clicked on certain links on our website.

As already described above, the data subject can prevent cookies from being set by our website at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the data subject's information technology system. In addition, cookies already set by Google can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs.

The person responsible for processing has integrated PayPal components on this website. PayPal is an online payment service provider. Payments are processed via so-called PayPal accounts, which represent virtual private or business accounts. PayPal also offers the option of processing virtual payments via credit cards if a user does not have a PayPal account. A PayPal account is managed via an email address, which is why there is no classic account number. PayPal makes it possible to trigger online payments to third parties or to receive payments. PayPal also performs trustee functions and offers buyer protection services.

The European operating company of PayPal is PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal L-2449, Luxembourg.

If the person concerned selects “PayPal” as a payment option during the ordering process in our online shop, the data subject's data is automatically transmitted to PayPal. By selecting this payment option, the data subject agrees to the transfer of personal data required for payment processing.

The personal data transmitted to PayPal is usually first name, last name, address, email address, IP address, telephone number, mobile phone number or other data that is necessary for payment processing. Personal data related to the respective order is also necessary to process the purchase contract.

The purpose of transmitting the data is to process payments and prevent fraud. The person responsible for processing will transfer personal data to PayPal in particular if there is a legitimate interest in the transfer. The personal data exchanged between PayPal and the person responsible for processing may be transmitted by PayPal to credit agencies. The purpose of this transfer is to verify identity and credit.

PayPal may share the personal data with affiliated companies and service providers or subcontractors, insofar as this is necessary to fulfill the contractual obligations or if the data is to be processed on behalf of the company.

The data subject has the option of withdrawing consent to PayPal's handling of personal data at any time. A revocation does not affect personal data, which must necessarily be processed, used or transmitted for (contractual) payment processing.

Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for our company for processing operations in which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, in processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of another service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, such as to fulfill tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data could be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would then have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Processing would then be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the above legal bases are based on this legal basis if processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, he took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the person responsible (recital 47 sentence 2 GDPR).

If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is to conduct our business for the benefit of all our employees and shareholders.

The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the respective legal retention period. At the end of the period, the corresponding data will be routinely deleted, provided that it is no longer required to fulfill or initiate a contract.

We would like to inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information about the contractual partner). In order to conclude a contract, it may be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data, which must then be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data when our company concludes a contract with him or her. Failure to provide personal data would mean that the contract with the person concerned could not be concluded. Before personal data is provided by the person concerned, the person concerned must contact one of our employees. Our employee will inform the person concerned on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what consequences the failure to provide the personal data would have.

As a responsible company, we refrain from automatic decision-making or profiling.
