What is this about?

This privacy policy meets the legal requirements for transparency in the processing of personal data. This includes all information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, information such as your name, your age, your address, your telephone number, your date of birth, your email address, your IP address, or your user behavior when visiting a website. Information that we cannot (or only with a disproportionate effort) relate to your person, for example through anonymization, is not personal data. The processing of personal data (e.g., collecting, querying, using, storing, or transmitting) always requires a legal basis and a defined purpose.

Stored personal data is deleted as soon as the purpose of the processing has been achieved and there are no lawful reasons for further retention of the data. We inform you in the individual processing operations about the specific storage periods or criteria for storage. Regardless, we store your personal data in individual cases for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims and in the presence of statutory retention obligations.

Who gets my data?

We only pass on your personal data that we process on our website to third parties if this is necessary for the fulfillment of the purposes and is covered by the legal basis (e.g., consent or protection of legitimate interests). In addition, we pass on personal data to third parties in individual cases if this serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims. Possible recipients can then be, for example, law enforcement authorities, lawyers, auditors, courts, etc.

To the extent we use service providers for the operation of our website who process personal data on our behalf as part of an order processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR, these can be recipients of your personal data. For more information about the use of processors and web services, see the overview of the individual processing operations.

Google Double Click

Nature and scope of the processing

We have integrated components of DoubleClick by Google on our website. DoubleClick is a brand of Google that mainly markets special online marketing solutions to advertising agencies and publishers. DoubleClick by Google transmits data to the DoubleClick server with each impression as well as with clicks or other activities.

Each of these data transmissions triggers a cookie request to the browser of the affected person. If the browser accepts this request, DoubleClick sets a cookie in your browser.

DoubleClick uses a cookie ID that is required to handle the technical process. The cookie ID is used, for example, to display an advertisement in a browser. DoubleClick can also use the cookie ID to track which advertisements have already been displayed in a browser to avoid duplicate placements. Furthermore, DoubleClick can use the cookie ID to record conversions. Conversions are recorded, for example, when a user has previously been shown a DoubleClick advertisement and then makes a purchase on the advertiser's website using the same internet browser.

A DoubleClick cookie does not contain any personal data but can contain additional campaign identifiers. A campaign identifier serves to identify the campaigns with which you have already been in contact on other websites. As part of this service, Google becomes aware of data that Google also uses to create commission statements. Google can, among other things, track that you have clicked on certain links on our website. In this case, your data is passed on to the operator of DoubleClick, Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.Further information and the applicable privacy policy of DoubleClick by Google can be found at https://policies.google.com/privacy .

Application process

On our website, we publish job offers to which you can apply via email. If you decide to apply for an open position, we process the personal data you provide and transmit to us solely for the purpose of conducting the application process.

The legal basis for processing your personal data in the application process is § 26 para. 1 in connection with para. 2 BDSG.

In the event of a rejection, we delete your data as soon as a legally required retention period of 6 months has expired. The period begins with the sending of the rejection. If you have explicitly consented to the further use of your data for a later approach regarding possibly interesting positions for you, we will continue to store your data accordingly.

If the application process results in an employment relationship, the data will be stored further, as necessary and permissible, and then transferred to the personnel file.

Data transfer to recipients outside the company only occurs to the extent that legal provisions permit or require it, the transfer is necessary to fulfill legal obligations, or you have consented. A transfer to a third country is not intended.

Providing personal data in the application process is neither legally nor contractually required. You are not obligated to provide personal data. However, providing personal data is necessary for the decision on an application or a contract conclusion for an employment relationship with us. You should only provide personal data that is necessary for the acceptance and conduct of the application. If you do not provide us with personal data in an application, we cannot make a decision about establishing an employment relationship.

Please note that applications you send to us by email are transmitted unencrypted. There is a risk that unauthorized persons may intercept and use this data.

Presence on social media platforms

To present our company as best as possible and to communicate with you as a user, customer, or interested party, and to inform you about our services, we use our presence in social networks. When using social networks, data processing occurs outside the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA). An equivalent level of data protection as in the EU cannot be guaranteed in all countries outside the EU. In this context, there may be risks for you as a user if the transferred data is processed in so-called third countries with an inadequate level of data protection.

This makes it difficult to enforce known user rights. In addition, your data may not be processed by the provider in the third country in your interest. We only transfer personal data to third countries for which an adequate level of data protection has been confirmed, or if the transfer of personal data can be ensured through contractual agreements or other suitable guarantees.

Besides the respective provider of a social network, we also process personal user data on so-called “fan pages”. This notice informs you about what data we collect from you on our social media presence, how we use it, and how you can object to the use of your data. The respective purposes of data processing and categories of data can be found in the respective offer described in detail below. The activities we operate on social media described in detail below are based on a balance of interests according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

To realize this, cookies are used that capture user behavior and enable the creation of a user profile. A detailed list of the purposes for processing user data can be found in the data protection notices of the respective providers. By making corresponding settings in your user account, you can restrict the creation of profiles to some extent. For the exact procedure, please read the respective data protection notices of the respective provider.

Universal POLYTHEX Kunststoffe GmbH operates profiles on the listed platforms to draw attention to products and service offerings and to interact with customers, interested parties, and other users of the platform.

In this context, the platform operators use certain data they have collected from users of the platform (e.g., whether a photo on a profile has been marked with "Like" or commented on) to create aggregated usage statistics and provide them to the respective profile operator (so-called "Insights" or "Analytics"). We as the profile operator also receive such usage statistics. The information we receive as the profile operator does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about individual users. The profile operator does not have access to personal data that the platform operators process for creating usage statistics. Only the respective platform operator determines which data is processed and in what way for these purposes. Universal POLYTHEX Kunststoffe GmbH, as the profile operator, cannot legally or practically influence the processing by the platform operators.

For processing related to creating usage statistics, Universal POLYTHEX Kunststoffe GmbH and the respective platform operator are jointly responsible in the sense of Art. 26 GDPR.

Where possible, agreements on joint responsibility exist with the respective platform operators.

Furthermore, data processing by Universal POLYTHEX Kunststoffe GmbH as the profile operator only takes place to a very limited extent:

· Processing of usernames and comments that are deleted due to violation of netiquette. These are retained for possible legal disputes within the limitation period.

· Processing of usernames and individual messages when you contact us via messenger services.

For these purposes, we generally only process your name, message content, comment content, and publicly provided profile information.

Data security

We secure our website with technical and organizational measures against loss, destruction, access, modification, or distribution of your data by unauthorized persons.

In particular, your personal data is transmitted to us in encrypted form. We use the SSL/TLS (Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security) encoding system. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.

Storage duration for personal data

With regard to the storage duration, we delete personal data as soon as their storage is no longer necessary for fulfilling the original purpose and there are no statutory retention periods. Statutory retention periods are the criteria for the final duration of the storage of personal data. After the period expires, the corresponding data is routinely deleted. If retention periods exist, the processing is restricted in the form of blocking the data.

Third-party service providers may have different and own provisions for handling the collection, processing, and use of personal data. Therefore, it is advisable to inform yourself about their practice for handling personal data on the internet pages of third parties before entering personal data.
