Privacy policy

 

For the purposes of data protection legislation, in particular the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the controller is: Liapor GmbH & Co. KG

Your rights

You can exercise the following rights at any time using the contact details of our data protection officer as provided:

  • information about your data that we store and how we process it,
  • rectification of incorrect personal data,
  • deletion of your data that we store,
  • restriction of the processing of data in the event that statutory obligations prevent us from deleting your data immediately,
  • objection to us processing your data and
  • data portability if you have consented to data processing or have concluded a contract with us.
     

If you have given your consent, you can revoke this consent at any time with future effect. You can lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority at any time. Which supervisory authority has competence will depend on the German federal state in which you are domiciled, the work you do or the alleged infringement. You will find a list of supervisory authorities (for sectors other than the public sector) with addresses at: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html.

Purposes of data processing by the controller and third parties

We only process your personal data for the purposes laid down in this Data Privacy Statement. Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties for any purposes other than those laid down here. We only pass your personal data on to third parties if:

  • you have given your express consent for us to do so,
  • processing of the data is necessary to process a contract with you,
  • processing of the data is necessary in order to meet a statutory obligation,
  • processing is necessary to safeguard legitimate interests and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest warranting protection in respect of your data not being passed on.

 

Cookies

Like many other web pages, we use "cookies". Cookies are small text files that are transferred to your hard disk from a web server. This provides us with certain data such as your IP address, the browser used, the operating system used and your connection to the Internet.
Cookies cannot be used to start programs or transmit a virus to a computer. The information contained in the cookies allows us to make navigation easier for you and to display our web page correctly.
The data we collect will under no circumstances be passed on to third parties, nor will it be linked to personal data without your consent.
It is, of course, also possible for you to view our web page without cookies. Internet browsers are regularly set up to accept cookies. As a rule, you can deactivate the use of cookies at any time using your browser settings. Refer to the “Help system” in your browser to find out how to change these settings. Note that some of the functions of our web page will not work if you deactivate the use of cookies.

SSL encryption

In order to ensure the security of your data during transfer, we use state-of-the-art encryption methods (e.g. SSL) over HTTPS.

Newsletter

On the basis of your express consent, we email you our regular newsletter or information of a similar nature to the email address you have given.
You only need to specify your email address in order to receive the newsletter. When you register to receive our newsletter, the data you supply is used exclusively for this purpose. Subscribers may also receive emails to inform them about circumstances relating to the service or to registration (for instance changes to the newsletter offering or technical issues).
We require a valid email address for registration to be effective. We use the "double opt-in" method to check that registration has actually been carried out by the owner of the email address. To do this, we log the order for the newsletter, the fact that a confirmation email has been sent and that the reply requested in the confirmation has been received. No other data is collected. The data is used exclusively for the purposes of sending the newsletter and is not passed on to third parties.
You can at any time withdraw your consent for us to store your personal data and use it to send the newsletter. You will find a link for this purpose in every newsletter. Furthermore, you can also unsubscribe at any time directly on this web page or you can inform us of your wish to do so at any time using the contact details provided at the end of this Data Privacy Statement.

Contact form

If you contact us by email or using the contact form with queries of any kind, you voluntarily consent to us contacting you. To do so, you must give a valid email address. This is used to assign and reply to the query. Any further data you supply is optional. The details you supply will be stored for the purpose of processing your query and for dealing with subsequent queries. After your query has been dealt with, personal data is automatically deleted.

Use of script libraries (Google Webfonts)

In order to present our content in a visually appealing manner and to ensure consistency across browsers, we use script libraries and font libraries such as Google Webfonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/) on this Web site. Google Webfonts are transferred to your browser's cache in order to avoid them being loaded multiple times. If your browser does not support Google Webfonts or prevents access to them, the content is displayed using a default font.
Calling script libraries or font libraries automatically sets up a connection to the operator of the relevant library. It is theoretically possible, although it is currently unclear whether this is done and for what purpose, that operators of such libraries can collect data.
You will find the privacy policy of the library operator Google here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

Embedded YouTube videos

We embed YouTube videos on some of our web pages. The operator of the associated plugins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you view a page with the YouTube plugin, a connection is established to YouTube servers. This informs YouTube of what pages you are viewing. If you are logged in to your YouTube account, YouTube is able to assign your surfing behaviour to you personally. You can prevent this by logging out from your YouTube account beforehand.
If a YouTube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information on user behaviour.
Anyone who has deactivated cookies for the Google ad program will not receive cookies of this type when viewing YouTube videos. However, YouTube also stores non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you wish to prevent this, you will have to prevent cookies from being stored in the browser. You can find further information on data protection at "YouTube" in the provider's Privacy Policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/
 

Use of personal data collected at trade fairs

Below you will find further data protection information on the way we use personal data about you collected during visits to a trade fair.

1. Collection of personal data during visits to trade fairs

We only collect the personal data that you communicate to us during a visit to a trade fair. This either occurs when you give us your business card or is collected manually by our employees or by our authorised partners. We process the following personal data: 

  • Data about you personally (e.g. form of address, title, first name, surname)
  • Data about your company (e.g. company name, function, job title)
  • Business address data (e.g. address, post code, location, country)
  • Business contact data (e.g. telephone number, e-mail address) 
     

We do not collect any other personal data apart from the items mentioned above. We collect other non-personal data solely in connection with the information you require about our products or in order to respond to concrete requests for offers.

The collected data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required in order to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. If data is collected in order to send product information and/or offers then your personal data is stored in our system. It is processed in order to send you product information or other information requested by you. Your data is therefore processed in order to complete pre-contractual activities or in the light of our justified economic interest in sending you information in your role as a contact person for our company.
 

2. No obligation to provide information

You have no contractual or legal obligation to provide us with your personal information. However, it is necessary for you to provide us with this personal information if we are to send you the corresponding information material. If you do not provide us with the necessary data, we will unfortunately be unable to send you the corresponding information or, if this is desired, to get in contact with you.

 

Changes to our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this Data Privacy Statement so that it always complies with current statutory requirements or to reflect changes to our services in the Data Privacy Statement, e.g. when introducing new services. The new Data Privacy Statement will then apply at your next visit.
