Data protection
The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data as confidential and in accordance with the statutory data protection provisions and this Data Privacy Policy.

When you use this website, a variety of personal data will be collected. Personal data means any data by which you can be identified as an individual. This Data Privacy Policy explains which data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how this is done, and for what purpose.

Please note that there are inherent security risks in transmitting data on the internet (e.g. when communicating by email). It is impossible to safeguard data completely against unauthorised access by third parties.

The “controller” is the natural or legal person which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time. All you need to do is send us an informal email. This will not affect the lawfulness of data processing prior to the withdrawal of your consent.

Right to data portability
You have the right to have data that we process by automated means based on your consent or in fulfilment of a contract delivered to yourself or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you require the direct transfer of data to another responsible party, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.

SSL or TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and for the protection of the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries you send to us as the site operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection in your browser’s address line when it changes from “http://” to “https://” and the lock icon is displayed in your browser’s address bar.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transfer to us cannot be read by third parties.

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to be provided at any time, free of charge, with information about your personal data that is stored as well as its source, the recipient and the purpose for which it has been processed.

4. Data collection on our website

Cookies
Some of our web pages use cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain any viruses. Cookies help make our website more user-friendly, efficient and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser. Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain in your device’s memory until you delete them. These cookies make it possible to recognise your browser when you next visit the site. You can configure your browser to inform you about the use of cookies so that you can decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept or reject a cookie. Alternatively, your browser can be configured to automatically accept cookies under certain conditions or to always reject them, or to automatically delete cookies when closing your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions that you have requested (e.g. the shopping basket function) are stored on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies in order to optimise and provide its services free of technical errors. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies to analyse your surfing behaviour) are stored, these are addressed separately in this Data Privacy Policy.

Server log files
The website provider automatically collects and stores information in so-called “server log files”, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

• Browser type and browser version
• Operating system used
• Referrer URL
• Host name of the accessing computer
• Time of the server request
• IP address

This data will not be combined with data from other sources.

The basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures. Server log files are automatically deleted after 14 days.

Contact form
If you use the contact form to send us an enquiry, we will store your details provided in the contact form, including your contact details, for the purpose of processing your enquiry and in the case of any follow-up questions. We will not disclose this data without your consent.

The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore based exclusively on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw your consent at any time. All you need to do is send an informal email to info@wlh-fuerth.de[EU(1] . This will not affect the lawfulness of data processing operations prior to the withdrawal of your consent.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you withdraw your consent to its storage or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have completed processing your enquiry). Mandatory statutory provisions – particularly retention periods – remain unaffected.

You can register on our website in order to use additional functions offered here. We only use the data you have entered for the purpose of enabling you to use the relevant offer or service for which you have registered. The mandatory information requested during registration must be provided in full, otherwise we will reject your registration.

We will use the email address given during registration to inform you of important changes such as regarding the scope of our services or any technical changes.

The processing of the data entered during registration is based on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw this consent at any time. All you need to do is send an informal email to info.WLH@srh.de. This will not affect the lawfulness of data processing prior to the withdrawal of your consent.

The data collected during registration will be stored by us for as long as you are registered to our website; it will then be deleted. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
