Firstly, data collection takes place due to the fact that you give us this information in the context of our business activity to fulfil a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. Data processing serves the fulfilment of the business purpose. This can also be data, which you enter in our contact form.
Secondly, data is collected automatically when you visit our website. This is mainly technical data.
Please note that data transmission on the Internet may be subject to security loopholes. Complete protection against access by third parties cannot be guaranteed.
II. Your rights
In accordance with Article 15 of the GDPR, you may request information about personal data processed by us. The right shall cover free information on the purposes of processing, the categories of personal data being processed, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data has been or is still being disclosed, in particular, recipients in third countries or international organisations, if possible, the planned duration for which the personal data will be stored or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining this period, the right to have personal data relating to them rectified or erased, or to have processing restricted by the responsible body or to have a right of objection to such processing, the existence of a right of appeal to a supervisory authority, the origin of the data, if not collected from us, the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, as well as further details thereof.
You also have the right to request that your stored data be corrected or completed (Article 16 of the GDPR).
In accordance with Article 17 of the GDPR, we will delete the personal data stored by us at your request, unless processing to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information, to fulfil a legal obligation in the public interest, or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims is not necessary according to Article 17 para. 3 of the GDPR. This concerns, in particular, storage for a longer period, to which we are obligated due to tax and commercial law storage and documentation obligations.
In accordance with Article 7 para. 3 of the GDPR, you can revoke your consent provided to us at any time. An informal email to us making this request is sufficient for this. Data processing based on this consent will then no longer be continued. The data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.

IV. The collection, use and storage of personal data
1. Customer and contract data
We collect, process and use your personal data only if you have given your consent to the processing of the data concerned for one or more specific purposes, or processing is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract, i.e. the establishment and content or amendment of a legal relationship (inventory data), or to carry out pre-contractual measures that take place upon your request. Data processing also takes place if it is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation, to protect vital interests or to perform a task that is in the public interest or in exercising public authority that has been entrusted to us.
Your personal data will be stored with us beyond the completion of the order or the processing of your enquiry. Storage takes place against the backdrop that we can only process enquiries from your side for the duration of the use of the product acquired by us after expiration of warranty periods with the help of your data, and can only offer professional technical support for the life span of the system over your data. Therefore, your data will only be deleted once the business relationship has been terminated by decommissioning the acquired system or upon your request, unless we are still obliged by tax and commercial law storage and documentation obligations to a longer storage period, or you have consented to further storage.
2. Sharing of data
A transfer of your personal data to third parties is made exclusively to the service providers involved in the framework of the contract, such as the logistics company assigned for delivery and the bank responsible for payment matters. In cases where your personal data is transferred to third parties, the amount of data disclosed is limited to the minimum necessary.
3. Data collection on the website
The information relates to our websites listed below
• eurolaser.com

When you visit our website, data is automatically sent via your browser to the server of our website, which is stored in so-called server log files. The following information is stored until it is automatically deleted:
• IP address
• Referrer URL
• Time the page was called up
• Name of your Internet browser and operating system
• If applicable, name of the access provider
The data is collected to ensure a smooth connection and error-free use of the website, to evaluate system security or for other administrative purposes. Our legitimate interest follows from the mentioned purposes of data collection. The legal basis is Article 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f) of the GDPR. Sources are not combined for the purpose of drawing conclusions about you personally.
b) Contact form
You can contact us using the form provided for on the website. The requested data you provide us with there is voluntary. This data is collected for the purpose of processing and for responding to your enquiry. We will not pass this data on to third parties without your consent.
The data only will be processed due to your contacting us in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. a) of the GDPS on the basis of your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. In this respect, notification by email is sufficient.
The data provided will be stored by us in the event of follow-up questions. They are stored until you request deletion, revoke your consent, or the purpose of storage ceases to apply. This is the case, for example, after the request you have made has been dealt with. Mandatory statutory provisions, in particular, those concerning retention periods, remain unaffected by this.
c) Newsletter
We use your email address to send you our newsletter on a regular basis, provided you have consented to this in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. a) of the GDPR.
The consent can be revoked at any time. You can also unsubscribe via the link at the end of each newsletter or with a short message including your request to unsubscribe by email to eurolaser@eurolaser.com.
d) Use of cookies
We use so-called cookies in order to provide you with our tailor-made services. Cookies do not harm your terminal device and do not contain viruses. Cookies are identifiers that our web server sends to your computer in order for it to be identified for the duration of the visit. Information is stored in the cookie that, in each case, results in connection with the specifically used terminal device. However, this does not mean that we immediately become aware of your identity.
Cookies are used to make our website more user-friendly and secure. We use so-called session cookies to recognise that you have already visited individual pages of our website. These are deleted automatically after leaving our site. Temporary cookies are also used, which are stored on your terminal device for a defined period of time. Upon visiting our website again, your computer will be identified by our server using the cookies stored on your computer. These cookies are automatically deleted after a defined period of time.
Your browser can be configured to inform you about the use of cookies so that you can decide to accept or reject each cookie. Alternatively, your browser can automatically accept cookies under certain conditions or always reject them, and you can also tell it to automatically delete cookies when closing your browser. Disabling cookies may prevent you from using all the features of our website.
In order to protect our legitimate interests and those of third parties, the data processed by cookies is required in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 s. 1 f) of the GDPR.
e) Google Analytics and Google Remarketing
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics also uses cookies.

The information that is generated by the cookie concerning your use of our website (including IP address) is transmitted to Google's server in the USA where it is stored. Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity for its operators and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where this is legally required, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf.

The website also uses the Adwords Remarketing function of Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Remarketing allows us to only show you products that interest you when you visit sites that are part of the Google Display Network (GND).

After analysing how you use the website, you will be shown advertisements for the products you have already viewed or which may be of interest to you. Visitors with similar interests are grouped together and temporarily stored. In the course of our online campaigns, topic-related ads are automatically placed with some Google partner sites (Google AdSense), so that specific eurolaser ads may be delivered to you.

10. Advertising
10.1 Google Ads (AdWords) Remarketing/Retargeting
Our website uses the functions of Google Ads. We use these to advertise this website in Google search results and on third-party websites. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google"). For this purpose, Google sets a cookie in the browser of your terminal device, which automatically enables interest-based advertising by means of a pseudonymous cookie ID and on the basis of the pages you have visited.

10.2 Google Ads with Conversion-Tracking
We have integrated Google Ads on this website. The operating company of the Google Ads services is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Ads is an Internet advertising service that allows advertisers to place ads both in Google's search engine results and in the Google advertising network. Google Ads allows an advertiser to specify certain keywords in advance, by means of which an ad is displayed in Google's search engine results exclusively when the user retrieves a keyword-relevant search result using the search engine. In the Google advertising network, the ads are distributed on topic-relevant websites by means of an automatic algorithm and in compliance with the previously defined keywords.
The purpose of Google Ads is to promote our website by displaying interest-relevant advertisements ads on the websites of third-party companies and in the search engine results of the Google search engine and a display of third-party advertisements on our website.
If you access our website via a Google ad, a so-called conversion cookie is stored on your IT system by Google. A conversion cookie loses its validity after thirty days and is not used to identify you. If the cookie has not yet expired, the conversion cookie is used to track whether certain sub-pages, for example the shopping cart of an online store system, have been called up on our website. Through the conversion cookie, both we and Google can track whether a user has reached our website via an AdWords ad, generated a turnover, i.e. completed or cancelled a purchase of goods.
The data and information collected through the use of the conversion cookie are used by Google to create visit statistics for our website. These visit statistics are in turn used by us to determine the total number of users who were referred to us via ads, i.e. to determine the success or failure of the respective Ads ad and to optimize our Ads ads for the future. Neither our company nor other advertisers of Google Ads receive information from Google by means of which you could be identified.
By means of the conversion cookie, personal information, for example the Internet pages visited by you, is stored. Each time you visit our website, personal data, including the IP address of the internet connection you use, 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 pass on these personal data collected via the technical procedure to third parties.
These processing operations are carried out exclusively when explicit consent is given in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR.
Additional information on the service can be found at the following link: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

Within the scope of this technical procedure, YouTube and Google receive knowledge about which specific subpage of our website is visited by you.
