By means of this data protection declaration, our company would like to inform the public about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process.

If you have further questions about this (e.g. to obtain information about processing activities that are not listed in this declaration), please contact usdirectly. The data protection declaration of the DRYNET GmbH is based on the terms used by the European Data Protection Supervisor when adopting the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

To ensure this, you will find explanations of the other terms used at the end of this statement.

3. Use of the Website
The use of the Internet pages of the DRYNET GmbH is possible without any indication of personal data. However, if a data subject wants to use special services of our enterprise via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we will generally obtain the consent of the data subject. As the controller, the DRYNET GmbH has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can always be vulnerable to security risks, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.
a. Cookies
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 by which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the visited Internet pages and servers 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. In principle, we refrain from the use of cookies, in exceptional cases we use cookies exclusively to offer you more convenience in our website. By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized in terms of the user. Cookies enable us, as already mentioned, to recognize the 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 or her access data each time he or she visits the website, because this is done by the website
and the cookie stored on the user’s computer system. Cookies are not assigned to personal profiles. The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies 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. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time using 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.
b. Collection of General Data and Information
The website of the DRYNET GmbH collects a series of general data and information with each call-up of the website by a data subject or automated system. This general data and information is stored in the log files of the server. The following data may be collected:
(1) the 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 an 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 serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems. When using these general data and information, the DRYNET GmbH does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed (1) to deliver the contents of our website correctly, (2) to optimize the contents of our website and the advertising for these, (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. Therefore, the DRYNET GmbH analyzes anonymously collected data and information on one hand, and on the other hand, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise so that we can ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from any personal data provided by a data subject.
c. Contact Possibility via theWebsite
The website of the DRYNET GmbH contains legal requirements which enable a quick electronic contact to our enterprise, 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 e-mail or by using a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject will be stored automatically. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the controller will be stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. No disclosure of this personal data to third parties will take place.
4. Forwarding to Third Parties
Personal data will only be passed on to third parties if this is necessary for thefulfillment of the contract. If DRYNET subsequently has to pass on data to third parties, DRYNET will only do so under the condition that they commit themselves to DRYNET to observe the protection of your data.Likewise, your personal data will be passed on if DRYNET is legally obliged to hand over this data. Categories of recipients of personal data can be: IT service providers, printing service providers, credit agencies, legal service providers, banks and credit institutions, accounting service providers, tax offices and authorities. Furthermore, within the framework of contractual measures, data may be forwarded to customers or suppliers involved in the product in order to be able to provide services as well as product deliveries. A forwarding to third countries (outside the EU) generally does not take place. In individual cases, there may be exceptions if customers or suppliers are from third countries. In this case, data subjects will be informed separately.
5. Routine Deletion and Blocking as well asStorage Period of Personal Data
The controller processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or where provided for by the European Directive and Regulation or other 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 Directive and Regulation Maker or another competent legislator expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions. The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. In principle, this is ten (10) years, based on evidence periods under tax law. In individual cases, a limitation to six (6) years is sufficient for the fulfillment of proof periods under commercial law. After expiry of this period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted if it is no longer required for the fulfillment or initiation of the contract.
6. Legal or Contractual Requirements to Provide the Personal Data; Necessity for the Conclusion of the Contract; Obligation of the Data Subject to Provide the Personal Data; Possible Consequences of Non-Provision
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 provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary for the conclusion of a contract that a data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with him or her. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded. Before providing personal data by the data subject, the data subject must contact one of our employees. Our employee will explain to the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of the 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 the consequences of not providing the personal data would be.
7. Existence of Automated Decision Making
As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.
