Your rights as a data subject

We would first like to notify you of your rights as a data subject. These rights are set out in Articles 15 - 22 GDPR, and include:

• The right of access (Art. 15 GDPR),

• The right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR),

• The right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR),

• The right to object to data processing (Art. 21 GDPR),

• The right to erasure / right to be forgotten (Art. 17 GDPR),

• The right to restriction of data processing (Art. 18 GDPR).

To exercise these rights, please contact: datenschutz@krs-trading.de. The same applies if you have any questions regarding data processing in our company or when you withdraw your consent. You also have a right of appeal to the relevant data protection supervisory authority.

Secure transfer of data

We implement the appropriate technical and organizational security measures to ensure the optimal protection of the data stored by us against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized persons. The security levels are continuously reviewed in collaboration with security experts and adapted to new security standards.

Right to object

Please note the following with respect to your right to object:

When we process your personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object to this data processing at any time without providing the reasons for such objection. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is associated with direct marketing.

If you object to the processing for direct marketing, we will no longer process your personal data for such purposes. The objection is free of charge and can be made informally, where appropriate to: datenschutz@krs-trading.de

Should we process your data to protect legitimate interests, you may object to such processing at any time for reasons that arise from your specific situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

We will then cease to process your personal information unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing such information that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is intended to assert, exercise or defend legal claims

Purposes and legal bases of data processing

The processing of your personal data complies with the provisions of the GDPR and all other applicable data protection regulations. Legal bases for data processing arise in particular from Art. 6 GDPR.

We use your data to initiate business, to fulfil contractual and legal obligations, to conduct the contractual relationship, to offer products and services and to consolidate customer relationships, which may include marketing and direct marketing.

Your consent also constitutes a data protection regulation. In this respect, we will inform you of the purposes of data processing and the right to withdraw your consent. If the consent also relates to the processing of special categories of personal data, we will explicitly notify you in the consent process.

If the consent also relates to the processing of special categories of personal data, we will explicitly notify you in the consent process. Processing of special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) GDPR may only take place where necessary on the grounds of legal regulations and there is no reason to assume that your legitimate interests should prevail to the exclusion of processing such data.

Data recipients / categories of recipients

In our organization, we ensure that only individuals who are required to process the relevant data to fulfil their contractual and legal obligations are authorized to handle personal data.

In certain cases, IT-service-providers assist our specialist departments to fulfil their tasks. The necessary data protection contract has been concluded with all service providers.

Transfers of personal data to third countries

A transfer of data to third countries (outside the European Union or the European Economic Area) shall only take place if required by law or if you have provided your consent for such a transfer.

We do not transfer your personal data to service providers or group companies outside the European Economic Area.

Period of data storage

We store your data for as long as such is required for the relevant processing purposes. Please note that numerous retention statutory periods require that data must be stored for a specific period of time. This relates in particular to retention obligations for commercial or fiscal purposes (e.g. commercial code, tax code, etc.). The data will be routinely deleted after use unless a further period of retention is required.

We may also retain data if you have given us your permission to do so, or in the event of any legal disputes and we use the evidence within the statutory limitation period, which may be up to 30 years; the standard limitation period is 3 years.

Obligation to provide data

A range of personal data is required to establish, implement and terminate the obligation and the fulfilment of the relevant contractual and legal obligations. The same applies to the use of our website and the various functions we provide.

We have summarized the relevant details in the above point. In some cases, legal regulations require data to be collected or made available. Please note that it will not be possible to process your request or execute the underlying contractual obligation without this information.

Data categories, sources and origin of data

We collect and process the following data when you visit our website:

Server-log-data

The website-provider automatically collects and stores information in so-called server-log- data, which are transmitted to us by your browser. These are:

• Type and version of browser
• operating system used
• Referrer URL
• Host name of the accessing computer
• Time the server-request is issued
• IP-address

For reasons of technical security (in particular to safeguard against attempts to attack of our web server), this data is stored in accordance with Article 6 (1) lit f GDPR. Anonymization takes place no later than after seven days by abbreviating the IP address so that no reference is made to the user.

We gather this information due to our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

Automated decisions in individual cases

We do not use purely automated processing to make decisions.

Cookies (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR)

Our website uses “cookies” at various locations, which serve to make our offer more user- friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer and stored by your browser (locally on your hard disk).

Most of the cookies we use are "session cookies", which will be automatically deleted after your visit. Persistent cookies are automatically deleted from your computer when their validity period (generally six months) has expired or you delete them yourself prior to expiry.

Cookies enable us to analyze how users use our websites so we can design the website content in accordance with the visitor’s needs. Therefore, it is our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 para. 1lit. f) GDPR to use such technically required cookies.

Most web browsers automatically accept cookies. You can generally change your browser's settings if you prefer not to send the information.

Please note: If you deactivate the placing of cookies on your device, you may not be able to access all our website functions in certain circumstances.

Analyzing tools and advertisements

On the website www.krs-trading.de we do not operate any behavior analyzation tools.

Marketing purposes regarding our established customers (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR)

KRS – TRADING GmbH is interested in maintaining the relationship with you and wants to provide you with information or special offers regarding our products. Therefore, we process your data to send you such information and offers via email.

If you do not want your data to be processed for direct marketing purposes, you can object at any time; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. If you object to the processing for direct marketing, we will no longer process your personal data for such purposes.

The objection does not have to be based on specific reasons and is free of charge. It can be executed informally via email at datenschutz@krs-trading.de or via mail at Im Vorwerk 30, D-36456 Barchfeld-Immelborn.

Links to other providers

Although we provide links to websites of other providers, we have no influence on their content, and no guarantee or liability can therefore be assumed for such. The content of these pages is always the responsibility of the respective provider or operator of the pages.

The linked pages were checked at the time of linking for potential legal violations and identifiable infringements. No illegal content was identified at the time of linking. However, a permanent content control of the linked pages is not reasonable without concrete evidence of an infringement and, upon notification of a violation of rights, such links will be promptly removed.
