Use of cookies (general, functionality, opt-out links etc.)
We use ‘cookies’ on our website to make visiting our website more attractive and to enable certain functions to be used. The use of cookies serves our legitimate interest in making a visit to our website as pleasant as possible and is based on article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Cookies are standard internet technology used to store and retrieve login details and other usage information for all the users of a website. Cookies are small text files that are deposited on your end device. They enable us to store user settings, inter alia, to ensure that our website can be shown in a format tailored to your device. Some of the cookies we use are deleted after the end of a browser session, i.e. when closing the browser (known as ‘session cookies’). Other cookies remain on the user’s end device and enable us or our partner companies to recognise the browser on the next visit (known as ‘persistent cookies’).

The browser can be set so that the user is informed when cookies are to be stored and can decide whether to accept them in each individual situation, to accept them under certain circumstances, or to exclude them in general. In addition, cookies can be retrospectively deleted to remove data that the website stored on your computer. Deactivating cookies (known as ‘opting out’) can limit our website’s functionality in some respects.

Hosting (incl. Content Delivery Network)
Our online offer is hosted by an external service provider. Personal data of the website visitors to our online offer, so-called log files, are stored on the servers of our service provider. This may also be data that is collected during the active use of our website. By using a specialised service provider, we can provide our website securely and efficiently. The hosting provider we use does not process the data for its own purposes.

We also use a so-called Content Delivery Network (CDN) in order to be able to provide the content of our website more quickly. When website visitors access e. g. graphics, scripts, or other content on our website, these are provided quickly and optimally with the help of regionally and internationally distributed servers. When the files are retrieved, a connection is established to the servers of a CDN provider, whereby personal data of the website visitors are processed, e. g. the IP address, browser data or the so-called user agent.

Online marketing
We process personal data within the framework of online marketing, particularly regarding potential interests and to measure the effectiveness of our marketing measures, with the aim of continually boosting our reach and the prominence of our online offering. We store the relevant information in cookies or use similar procedures for the purpose of measuring the effectiveness of our marketing measures and identifying potential interests. The data stored in the cookies could include the content viewed, webpages visited, settings, and the functions and systems used. However, plain data from users is not normally processed for the above purposes. If so, the data is changed so that the actual identity of the user is not known to us, nor the provider of the tool used. The changed data is often stored in user profiles. In the event that user profiles are stored, the data can be used, read, supplemented, and expanded on the server of the online marketing procedure when other online offerings are visited that use the same online marketing procedure. We can calculate the success of our adverts using summarised data that is made available to us by the provider of the online marketing procedure (known as ‘conversion measurement’). As part of these conversion measurements, we can trace whether a marketing measure caused a visitor to our online offering to decide to make a purchase. This evaluation serves to analyse the success of our online marketing.

Categories of data subjects:

Website visitors, users of online services, prospective customers, communication partners, business partners and contractual partners
Data categories:

Usage data (e.g. websites visited, interest in content, access times), metadata and communication data (e.g. device information, IP addresses), location data, contact data (e.g. email address, telephone number), content data (e.g. text inputs, photographs, videos)
Purposes of processing:
Marketing (sometimes interest-based and behavioural, as well), conversion measurement, target group formation, click tracking, development of marketing strategies and increase in the efficiency of campaigns
Legal bases:

Presence on social media

We maintain online presences on social networks and career platforms so we can exchange information with users registered there and easily contact them. Sometimes, data belonging to social network users is used for market research and, by extension, for advertising purposes. Users’ usage behaviour, such as their stated interests, can lead to user profiles being created and used in order to adapt adverts to suit the interests of the target group. To this end, cookies are normally stored on users’ end devices, which sometimes occurs regardless of whether you are a registered user of the social network. In conjunction with the use of social media, we also make use of the associated messenger services to communicate easily with users. We would like to point out that the security of some services can depend on the user’s account settings. Even in cases of end-to-end encryption, the service provider can draw conclusions about the fact that the user is communicating with us, when they do so, and, on occasion, capture location data. Depending on where the social network is operated, the user data can be processed outside the European Union or outside the European Economic Area. This can lead to risks for users because it is more difficult for them to assert their rights, for example.

Categories of data subjects:

Registered users and non-registered users of the social network

 

Data categories:

Master data (e.g. name, address), contact data (e.g. email address, telephone number), content data (e.g. text inputs, photographs, videos), usage data (e.g. websites visited, interest in content, access times), metadata and communication data (e.g. device information, IP addresses)

 

Purposes of processing:

Increase in the reach, networking of users

 

Legal bases:

Consent (article 6 (1) (a) GDPR), legitimate interest (article 6 (1) (f) GDPR)

 

Legitimate interests:

Interaction and communication on social media pages, increase in profits, findings regarding target groups

Plug-ins and integrated third-party content
We have integrated functions and content obtained from third-party providers into our online offering. For example, videos, depictions, buttons or contributions (hereinafter termed ‘content’) can be integrated. To enable visitors to our online offering to be shown content, the third-party provider in question processes the user’s IP address, inter alia, to transmit the content to the browser and display it. It is not possible to integrate third-party content without this processing taking place.
Sometimes, additional information is collected via ‘pixel tags’ or web beacons through which the third-party provider receives information about the use of the content or visitor traffic to our online offering, technical information about the user’s browser or operating system, the visit time or referring websites. The data collected in this manner is stored in cookies on the user’s end device. We have taken security precautions to prevent this data from being automatically transferred, with the aim of protecting the personal data of visitors to our online offering. This data is only transferred if the visitor uses the buttons or click on the third-party content.

Categories of data subjects:
Users of plug-ins or third-party content

Single sign-on procedure
To make our online offering even easier to use, we deploy a ‘single sign-on procedure’. This enables users to log on to our online offering with log-in details from a single sign-on provider, meaning that they do not need to have any additional log-in details as a result. The use of a single sign-on procedure requires users to already have an existing user account with a provider of the procedure in question, such as a social network. To log on with the single sign-on procedure, the user must provide their log-in details for the single sign-on procedure in the log-in window of our online offering, or if the user is already logged in on the provider’s website, confirm registration via single sign-on by clicking the appropriate button.

We use ‘user handles’ to carry out authentication. Inter alia, this includes a user ID plus information that the user has used the ID to log on with the procedure provider in question. We only receive this ID for the purposes of authentication, i.e. we are not permitted to process it for any purposes beyond authentication. Whether data beyond this is transferred to us, and if yes, what data, depends on the provider of the procedure in question, the user’s account settings with this provider and any data approvals selected within the framework of authentication. The data we receive from the provider of the procedure in question can vary. However, it usually encompasses an email address and a username. We cannot see the password entered, nor can we store it.

To change or delete connections between user accounts and the single sign-on procedure, the appropriate settings must be changed within the user account with the provider of the procedure in question.

Categories of data subjects:

Users of the function in question

 

Data categories:

User handles (e.g. username, authentication confirmation)

Newsletter and mass communication (including tracking, if applicable)
On our online offering, users have the option of subscribing to our newsletter or to notifications on various channels (hereinafter referred to overall as ‘newsletters’). We only send newsletters to data subjects who have agreed to receive the newsletter, and within the framework of statutory provisions. We use a select service provider to send out our newsletter. An email address must be provided to subscribe to our newsletter. If applicable, we collect extra data, such as your name to include a personal greeting in our newsletter. Our newsletter is only sent after the ‘double opt-in procedure’ has been fully completed. If visitors to our online offering decide to receive our newsletter, they will receive a confirmation email that serves to prevent the fraudulent input of wrong email addresses and preclude a single, possibly accidental, click from causing the newsletter to be sent. The subscription to our newsletter can be ended at any time with future effect. An unsubscription (opt-out) link is given at the end of every newsletter. In addition, we are obliged to provide proof that our subscribers actually want to receive the newsletter. To this end, we collect and store their IP address, along with the time of subscription and unsubscription. Our newsletters are designed so that we can obtain findings about improvements, target groups or the reading behaviour of our subscribers. We are able to do this thanks to a ‘web beacon’ or tracking pixel that reacts to interactions with the newsletter, such as looking at whether links are clicked on, whether the newsletter is opened at all, or at what time the newsletter is read. For technical reasons, we can associate this information with individual subscribers.

Categories of data subjects:

Newsletter subscribers

Data categories:
Master data (e.g. name, address), contact data (e.g. email address, telephone number), metadata and communication data (e.g. device information, IP addresses), usage data (e.g. websites visited, interest in content, access times)

Download Whitepaper
On our online offering, visitors have the opportunity to download documents, so that we can provide them with recent or relevant information. In some cases, our visitors can download pdf files. A tracking in case of a download of a whitepaper takes place.

In some cases, we collect personal data including IP-address via a form before the download and make the provision of our free services dependent on a subscription to our newsletter. In this case, consent is obtained via a double-opt-in procedure both for the processing of user data for the download and separately for the subscription to download-related mailings, which are freely withdrawable separately.

The download then takes place via a download link, which we provide to our users by e-mail.

In the event of transferring personal data to a country outside the EEA in the context of internal group processing, we ensure that the processing is legally permissible in the manner we intend. In this case, we have concluded binding corporate rules/standard data protection clauses including a separate regulation of appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect the data of data subjects best possible. A copy of the guarantee used is available at Microsoft Corporation: https://learn.microsoft.com/de-de/compliance/regulatory/offering-eu-model-clauses; Google Inc.: https://support.google.com/publisherpolicies/answer/10437486?hl=de.

Storage period
In principle, we store the data of visitors to our online offering for as long as needed to render our service or to the extent that the European body issuing directives and regulations or another legislator stipulates in laws and regulations to which we are subject. In all other cases, we delete personal data once the purpose has been fulfilled, with the exception of data that we need to continue to store to comply with legal obligations (e.g. if retention periods under tax law and trade law require us to keep documents such as contracts and invoices for a certain period of time).

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling.

Legal bases
The decisive legal bases primarily arise from the GDPR. They are supplemented by national laws from member states and can, if applicable, be applied alongside or in addition to the GDPR.

Consent:

Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing procedures regarding which we have sought consent for a particular purpose of processing.

Performance of a contract:
Article 6 (1) (b) serves as the legal basis for processing required to perform a contract to which the data subject is a contractual party or for taking steps prior to entering into a contract, at the request of the data subject.
Legal obligation:

Article 6 (1) (c) GDPR is the legal basis for processing that is required to comply with a legal obligation.

Vital interests:

Article 6 (1) (d) GDPR serves as the legal basis if the processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.

Public interest:

Article 6 (1) (e) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing that is necessary to perform a task in the public interest or to exercise public force that is transferred to the controller.

Legitimate interest:
Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing that is necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the controller or a third party, provided this is not outweighed by the interests or fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject that require personal data to be protected, particularly if the data subject is a child.

Rights of the data Subject

Right of access:
Pursuant to article 15 GDPR, data subjects have the right to request confirmation as to whether we process data relating to them. They can request access to their data, along with the additional information listed in article 15 (1) GDPR and a copy of their data.
Right to rectification:
Pursuant to article 16 GDPR, data subjects have the right to request that data relating to them, and that we process, be rectified or completed.
Right to erasure:

Pursuant to article 17 GDPR, data subjects have the right to request that data relating to them be erased without delay. Alternatively, they can request that we restrict the processing of their data, pursuant to article 18 GDPR.

Right to data portability:
Pursuant to article 20 GDPR, data subjects have the right to request that data made available to us by them be provided and transferred to another controller.
Right to lodge a complaint:
In addition, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority responsible for them, under article 77 GDPR.
Right to object:
If personal data is processed on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to article 6 (1) (1) (f) GDPR, under article 21 GDPR data subjects have the right to object to the processing of their personal data, provided there are reasons for this that arise from their particular situation or the objection relates to direct advertising. In the latter case, data subjects have a general right to object that is to be put into effect by us without a particular situation being stated.

Withdrawal of consent
Some data processing procedures can only be carried out with the express consent of the data subject. Once granted, you are able to withdraw consent at any time. To do so, sending an informal note or email to datenschutz@forcam.com is sufficient. The consent of data processing operations on our online offer can be directly adjusted in our Consent Manager-Tool. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the point of withdrawal shall remain unaffected by the withdrawal.
