Personal data (usually referred to just as “data” below) will only be processed by us to the extent necessary and for the purpose of providing a functional and user-friendly website, including its contents, and the services offered there.
Per Art. 4 No. 1 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, i.e. the General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter referred to as the “GDPR”), “processing” refers to any operation or set of operations such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation, alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination, or otherwise making available, alignment, or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction performed on personal data, whether by automated means or not.
The following privacy policy is intended to inform you in particular about the type, scope, purpose, duration, and legal basis for the processing of such data either under our own control or in conjunction with others. We also inform you below about the third-party components we use to optimize our website and improve the user experience which may result in said third parties also processing data they collect and control.
Our privacy policy is structured as follows:
I. Information about us as controllers of your data
II. The rights of users and data subjects
III. Information about the data processing
The party responsible for this website (the “controller”) for purposes of data protection law is:
Stelzer Technologies UG (haftungsbeschränkt)
c/o TrafoHub GmbH
Sophienstr. 40
38118 Braunschweig
Telefon: (+49) 163 5176745
E-Mail: info@stelzer-technologies.com
The responsible entity is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).
With regard to the data processing to be described in more detail below, users and data subjects have the right
In addition, the controller is obliged to inform all recipients to whom it discloses data of any such corrections, deletions, or restrictions placed on processing the same per Art. 16, 17 Para. 1, 18 GDPR. However, this obligation does not apply if such notification is impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. Nevertheless, users have a right to information about these recipients.
Likewise, under Art. 21 GDPR, users and data subjects have the right to object to the controller’s future processing of their data pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. In particular, an objection to data processing for the purpose of direct advertising is permissible.
Your data processed when using our website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for its storage ceases to apply, provided the deletion of the same is not in breach of any statutory storage obligations or unless otherwise stipulated below.
For technical reasons, the following data sent by your internet browser to us or to our server provider will be collected, especially to ensure a secure and stable website: These server log files record the type and version of your browser, operating system, the website from which you came (referrer URL), the webpages on our site visited, the date and time of your visit, as well as the IP address from which you visited our site.
The data thus collected will be temporarily stored, but not in association with any other of your data.
The basis for this storage is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality, and security of our website.
The data will be deleted within no more than seven days, unless continued storage is required for evidentiary purposes. In which case, all or part of the data will be excluded from deletion until the investigation of the relevant incident is finally resolved.
We use cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies stored on your computer by your browser. These cookies process certain specific information about you, such as your browser, location data, or IP address.
This processing makes our website more user-friendly, efficient, and secure, allowing us, for example, to display our website in different languages or to offer a shopping cart function.
The legal basis for such processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR, insofar as these cookies are used to collect data to initiate or process contractual relationships.
If the processing does not serve to initiate or process a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis is then Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.
When you close your browser, these session cookies are deleted.
If necessary, our website may also use cookies from companies with whom we cooperate for the purpose of advertising, analyzing, or improving the features of our website.
Please refer to the following information for details, in particular for the legal basis and purpose of such third-party collection and processing of data collected through cookies.
You can refuse the use of cookies by changing the settings on your browser. Likewise, you can use the browser to delete cookies that have already been stored. However, the steps and measures required vary, depending on the browser you use. If you have any questions, please use the help function or consult the documentation for your browser or contact its maker for support. Browser settings cannot prevent so-called flash cookies from being set. Instead, you will need to change the setting of your Flash player. The steps and measures required for this also depend on the Flash player you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or consult the documentation for your Flash player or contact its maker for support.
If you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, not all of the functions on our site may be fully usable.
To obtain consent for the use of technically unnecessary cookies on the website, the provider uses a cookie manager.
When the website is called up, a cookie with the settings information is stored on the end device of the user so that the request for consent does not have to be made on a subsequent visit.
The cookie is required to obtain legally compliant user consent.
You can prevent cookies from being installed by adjusting the settings on your internet browser.
To manage the cookies and similar technologies used (tracking pixels, web beacons, etc.) and related consents, we use the consent tool “Real Cookie Banner”. Details on how “Real Cookie Banner” works can be found at https://devowl.io/rcb/data-processing/.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data in this context are Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR and Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the management of the cookies and similar technologies used and the related consents.
The provision of personal data is neither contractually required nor necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are not obliged to provide the personal data. If you do not provide the personal data, we will not be able to manage your consents.
The data you submit when ordering goods and/or services from us will have to be processed in order to fulfill your order. Please note that orders cannot be processed without providing this data.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
After your order has been completed, your personal data will be deleted, but only after the retention periods required by tax and commercial law.
In order to process your order, we will share your data with the shipping company responsible for delivery to the extent required to deliver your order and/or with the payment service provider to the extent required to process your payment.
When subscribing to our company’s newsletter, the data entered in the respective input mask is transmitted to the responsible party for processing. Subscription to our newsletter is done through a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after registration, you will receive an email asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary to prevent anyone from registering with someone else’s email address. When registering for the newsletter, the user’s IP address as well as the date and time of registration are stored. This is to prevent misuse of services or the email address of the affected person. The data will not be passed on to third parties. An exception exists only if there is a legal obligation to pass on the data. The data will be used exclusively for sending the newsletter. The subscription to the newsletter can be terminated by the affected person at any time. Similarly, consent to the storage of personal data can be revoked at any time. For this purpose, there is a corresponding link in every newsletter. The legal basis for the processing of data after the user registers for the newsletter, given the user’s consent, is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. The legal basis for sending the newsletter as a result of the sale of goods or services is § 7(3) UWG.
Description and Purpose: We use MailerLite to send newsletters. The provider is MailerLite Limited, located at 38 Mount Street Upper, Dublin 2, D02 PR89 Ireland. MailerLite organizes and analyzes the sending of newsletters. The data you enter for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter is stored on MailerLite’s servers in Germany and Belgium. If you do not wish for MailerLite to analyze your data, you will need to unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this purpose, we provide a corresponding link in each newsletter message. For the purpose of analysis, the emails sent with MailerLite contain a so-called tracking pixel, which connects to MailerLite’s servers when the email is opened. This allows us to determine whether a newsletter message has been opened. Additionally, we can use MailerLite to determine whether and which links in the newsletter message are clicked. Optionally, links in the email can be set as tracking links, allowing your clicks to be counted.
Legal Basis: The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
Data Processing Agreement: We have a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) in place with MailerLite to ensure that all data collected through MailerLite is processed in compliance with GDPR requirements. This agreement ensures that MailerLite processes data only on our instructions and implements appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data.
Recipient: The recipient of the data is MailerLite.
Transmission to Third Countries: No data transmission to third countries occurs.
Duration: The data stored by us for the purpose of the newsletter subscription will be stored until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from our servers as well as from MailerLite’s servers after you unsubscribe. Data that has been stored for other purposes (e.g., email addresses for the members area) remains unaffected by this.
Revocation Possibility: You have the right to revoke your consent to data processing at any time with effect for the future. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.
Further Data Protection Notices: For more information, please refer to MailerLite’s data security notices at: https://www.mailerlite.com/legal/data-processing-agreement.
If you contact us via email or the contact form, the data you provide will be used for the purpose of processing your request. We must have this data in order to process and answer your inquiry; otherwise we will not be able to answer it in full or at all.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
Your data will be deleted once we have fully answered your inquiry and there is no further legal obligation to store your data, such as if an order or contract resulted therefrom.
If you submit an application for a student thesis, internship, or research collaboration, we may collect and process the following personal data:
