General Information and Mandatory Disclosures

Name of the Controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

Elektrohub GmbH, Nico Pliquett
Große Elbstraße 277a, 22767 Hamburg

The controller alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, contact details or similar).

Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing

Some data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw consent you have already given at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for the withdrawal. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out until the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

As a data subject, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority in the event of a breach of data protection law. The competent supervisory authority for data protection matters is the data protection commissioner of the federal state in which our company has its registered office. The following link provides a list of the data protection commissioners and their contact details: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract handed over to yourself or to third parties. The data will be provided in a machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done where technically feasible.

Right to Access, Rectification, Restriction and Erasure

Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain information free of charge about your stored personal data, the origin of the data, its recipients and the purpose of the data processing, and, where applicable, a right to rectification, restriction of processing or erasure of this data. In this regard, and for any further questions on the subject of personal data, you may contact us at any time using the contact options listed in the legal notice (Impressum).

SSL or TLS Encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the website operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. This means that data you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the “https://” in the address bar of your browser and by the padlock symbol in the browser bar.

Server Log Files

The website provider automatically collects and stores information in server log files that your browser automatically transmits to us. This includes:

  • Page visited on our domain
  • Date and time of the server request
  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources. The legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or for steps prior to entering into a contract.

Data Transfer upon Conclusion of a Contract for the Purchase and Shipping of Goods

Personal data is only transferred to third parties where this is necessary in the course of processing the contract. Third parties may include, for example, payment service providers or logistics companies. No further transfer of the data takes place, or only if you have expressly consented to it.

The legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or for steps prior to entering into a contract.

Contact Form

Data transmitted via the contact form, including your contact details, is stored in order to process your enquiry or to be available for follow-up questions. This data is not passed on without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw consent you have already given at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for the withdrawal. The lawfulness of the data processing operations carried out until the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Data transmitted via the contact form remains with us until you ask us to delete it, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Newsletter Data

To send you our newsletter, we require your email address. Verification of the email address provided is necessary, and you must consent to receiving the newsletter. Additional data is not collected or is provided voluntarily. The data is used exclusively for sending the newsletter.

The data provided when subscribing to the newsletter is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw consent you have already given at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for the withdrawal, or you can unsubscribe via the “unsubscribe” link in the newsletter. The lawfulness of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Data entered to set up the subscription will be deleted upon unsubscription. If this data has been transmitted to us for other purposes and elsewhere, it will remain with us.

YouTube

Our website uses plugins from YouTube to integrate and display video content. The provider of the video portal is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

When you visit a page with an integrated YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. This tells YouTube which of our pages you have visited.

If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can assign your browsing behaviour directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out beforehand.

YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offerings. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Details on the handling of user data can be found in YouTube's privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en

Cookies

Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Cookies help us to make our offering more user-friendly, effective and secure.

Some cookies are “session cookies”. Such cookies are deleted automatically at the end of your browser session. Other cookies, by contrast, remain on your device until you delete them yourself. Such cookies help us to recognise you when you return to our website.

With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict or prevent the setting of cookies. Many web browsers can be configured to delete cookies automatically when the program is closed. Deactivating cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.

Cookies that are necessary to carry out electronic communication processes or to provide certain functions you have requested (e.g. shopping cart) are set on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services. Where other cookies (e.g. for analytics functions) are set, these are dealt with separately in this privacy policy.

Google Analytics

Our website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider of the web analytics service is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics uses “cookies”. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device and that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of our website is transmitted to a Google server and stored there. The server is generally located in the USA.

Google Analytics cookies are set on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise our website and, where applicable, our advertising.

IP Anonymisation

We use Google Analytics in conjunction with the IP anonymisation function. This ensures that Google truncates your IP address within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before it is transmitted to the USA. In exceptional cases, Google may transmit the full IP address to a server in the USA and truncate it there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with further services related to website and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.

Browser Plugin

You can prevent your web browser from setting cookies. However, this may restrict some functions of our website. You can also prevent the collection of data relating to your use of the website, including your IP address, and its subsequent processing by Google. You can do this by downloading and installing the browser plugin available via the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en

Objection to Data Collection

You can prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics by selecting only necessary cookies in our cookie banner. Without your consent (“Accept all”), Google Analytics will not be loaded on this website.

Details on the handling of user data by Google Analytics can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en

Data Processing Agreement

In order to fully comply with the statutory data protection requirements, we have concluded a data processing agreement with Google.

Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking

Our website may use Google AdWords. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States.

AdWords is an online advertising programme. As part of this online advertising programme, we use conversion tracking. After you click on an advertisement placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is set. Cookies are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Google AdWords cookies expire after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. Using the cookie, Google and we can recognise that you clicked on an advertisement and were redirected to our website.

Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers. Conversion cookies are used to compile conversion statistics for AdWords customers who use conversion tracking. AdWords customers learn how many users clicked on their advertisement and were redirected to pages with a conversion tracking tag. However, AdWords customers do not receive any information that would allow users to be personally identified. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by deactivating the conversion cookie in your browser's user settings. You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

“Conversion cookies” are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. As the website operator, we have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise our website and our advertising.

Details on Google AdWords and Google conversion tracking can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en. With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict or prevent the setting of cookies. Deactivating cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.
