Purposes of processing

We process your personal data in accordance with the provisions of the German Data Protection Regulation [DSGVO], the German Federal Data Protection Act [BDSG] and the applicable data protection regulations for the following purposes:

  • Email newsletter/advertisements
  • Personal and individual communication and product recommendations
  • Implementation of business decisions under corporate law
  • Compliance with statutory regulations
  • Assertion and defence of legal claims


Transfer of your personal information to third parties does not take place for purposes other than those indicated. We only transfer your personal data to third parties when:
  • You have issued your express consent for this purpose,
  • the processing is necessary for implementation of a contract with you,
  • the processing is necessary for fulfilment of a legal obligation,
  • the processing is necessary to protect entitled interests and there is no reason to assume that you have a prioritised interest in not transferring your data to third parties.

Legal basis

Insofar as consent is statutorily required, for example, for certain email advertising or for certain categories of cookies, we obtain this consent. If consent is not granted, we do not carry out the data processing processes for which consent is mandatory.

Moreover, statutory standards of permission, such as retention periods under fiscal law or the assertion and defence of legal claims, allow the processing of your data.

Recipients or categories of recipients of your data

JB-Lighting GmbH, as the responsible party, only has access to your data to the extent that is necessary to achieve the purposes of internal distribution of tasks. For this purpose, only departments and employees who actually require access to your data are granted access internally.

Service providers: We have employed service providers who have access to your data as order processors and process said data for the purposes concretely specified by us. These order processors can be marketing service providers, website hosting service providers, IT support service providers or website analysis service providers.

International data transmission:Although all recipients are currently located within the EU/EEA, we must take into account that future recipients may be located in a country outside of the EU/EEA which does not offer the same level of data protection in comparison with the European data protection level. Future service providers can be located in the USA, in particular. In this case, JB-Lighting will select service providers who have been certified under the US-EU Privacy Shield programme (Art. 45, para. 1 of the German Data Protection Regulation) or who have agreed with JB-Lighting to the EU standard contractual clauses as approved by the EU Commission (Art. 46, para. 2 (c) or (d) of the German Data Protection Regulation).

Duration of storage of your data
In principle, we process and store your data for the duration of our contractual relationship. This also includes the lead-up to a contract (pre-contractual legal relationship).
Furthermore, we are subject to various retention and documentation obligations arising from German Commercial Code [HGB] and German Fiscal Code [AO], etc. The periods specified there for retention and documentation extend for up to ten years after the end of the contractual relationship or pre-contractual legal relationship.

Furthermore, special statutory regulations can require a longer retention period – e.g. retention of proof in the scope of statutory requirements for limitation periods. According to Article 195 ff. of German Civil Code [BGB], the regular period of limitation is three years, but limitation periods of up to 30 years can also be applicable.

If the data is no longer necessary for fulfilment of contractual or statutory duties and rights it is deleted regularly, unless – temporary – further processing is necessary for fulfilment of the purposes listed above from a prioritised entitled interest of the employer.

USE OF FONT LIBRARIES (GOOGLE WEBFONTS)

In order to present our content correctly and in a graphically appealing manner across different browsers, we use font libraries, such as Google Webfonts, on this website (https://www.google.com/webfonts/). Google Webfonts are transferred in your browser cache to avoid loading repeatedly. If the browser does not support Google Webfonts or suppresses access, content is displayed in a standard font.

Calling-up of font libraries automatically establishes a connection to the operator of the library. In the process, it is theoretically possible to for the operator of such libraries to collect data, but it is currently also unclear whether and for what purposes, if applicable.

The data protection policies of the library operator Google are provided here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

USE OF ADOBE TYPEKIT

We use Adobe Typekit for the visual design of our website. Typekit is a service of Adobe Systems Software Ireland Ltd. who grants us access to a font library. For integration of the font types which we use, your browser must establish a connection to an Adobe server in the USA and download the font required for our website. In this connection, Adobe receives the information that our website was visited from your IP address. Further information about Adobe Typekit is provided in the Adobe data protection information available here: www.adobe.com/privacy/typekit.html

USE OF GOOGLE MAPS

This website uses Google Maps API in order to display geographic information visually. With use of Google Maps, data about the use of the map functions by the user is also collected, processed and used by Google. For further information about the data processing by Google, refer to the Google data protection policy. You can also change your personal data protection settings in the data protection centre. Detailed instructions for management of your data in connection with Google products are provided here.

EMBEDDED YOUTUBE VIDEOS

We embed YouTube videos on some of our web pages. The operator of the corresponding plug-ins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. If you visit a page with the YouTube plug-in, a connection to YouTube servers is established. In the process, YouTube is notified which pages you visit. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can associate your surfing behaviour with you, personally. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account beforehand.

If a YouTube video is started, the provider sets a cookie which collects information about the user behaviour.

If the user has deactivated storage of cookies for the Google Ad program, such cookies are not used when viewing YouTube videos. However, YouTube also stores other non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you would like to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in the browser.

For further information about data protection with "YouTube", refer to the provider's data privacy policy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/

GOOGLE ADWORDS

Our website uses Google Conversion Tracking. If you reach our website via an advertisement connected by Google, Google AdWords places a cookie on your computer. The cookie for conversion tracking is placed if a user clicks on an advertisement connected by Google. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not provided for the purpose of personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of our website and the cookie has not expired, we and Google recognise that the user has clicked on the advertisement and was directed to this page. Every Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Therefore, cookies cannot be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected with the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who choose to use conversion tracking. The customers learn about the total number of users who have clicked on their advertisement and were directed to a page provided with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified.

If you would not like to participate in the tracking, you can reject the storage of a cookie required for this purpose – e.g. with a browser setting which generally deactivates the automatic setting of cookies or configures your browser so that cookies from the domain "googleleadservices.com" are blocked.

Please bear in mind that the opt-out cookies cannot be deleted if you do not want measured data to be recorded. If you have deleted all of your cookies in the browser, you must re-set the respective opt-out cookie.

  • Right to revoke consent: If you have provided your consent with respect to certain types of processing activities, you can revoke this consent at any time with future effect.

In this case, we will no longer process your data unless we are entitled by law to reject your objection. However, an objection to direct marketing, including profiling, is compulsory for us and we can no longer process your data for these purposes.
    Insofar as you have granted your consent for direct advertising and no longer want to receive this direct advertising, you must revoke your consent.
  • Complaints with data protection authorities: You also have the right to file complaints with the responsible data protection authorities (Art. 77 of the German Data Protection Regulation).
