The data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator. You can find its contact details in the imprint of this website.

How do we collect your data?

On the one hand, your data are collected when you communicate them to us. This can be, for example, data that you enter in a contact form.

Other data are automatically recorded by our IT systems when you visit the website. These are mainly technical data (e.g. internet browser, operating system or time of the page view). These data are collected automatically as soon as you enter our website.

What do we use your data for?

Some of the data are collected in order to ensure that the website is error-free. Other data can be used to analyse your user behaviour.

What rights do you have with regard to your data?

You have the right to receive information free of charge at any time about the origin, recipient and purpose of your personal data that are stored. You also have the right to request the correction, blocking or deletion of these data. You can contact us at any time at the address provided in the legal notice if you have any further questions about data protection. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.

Analysis tools and third party tools

When you visit our website, your surfing behaviour can be statistically evaluated. This is mainly done with cookies and so-called analysis programs. Your surfing behaviour is usually analysed anonymously; surfing behaviour cannot be traced back to you. You can object to this analysis or prevent it by not using certain tools. You can find detailed information on this in the following data protection declaration.

You can object to this analysis. We inform you about the possibilities of objection in this data protection declaration.

2. General information and mandatory information

Data protection

The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this data protection declaration.

When you use this website, various personal data are collected. Personal data are data with which you can be personally identified. This data protection declaration explains which data we collect and what we use them for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by email) can have security gaps. A complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.

Note on the responsible body

The responsible body for data processing on this website is:

Niederrheinische Blechwarenfabrik GmbH
Managing director Herbert Dickel
Düsseldorfer Strasse 170-174
47239 Duisburg

Telephone: 02151-490760
info@nbf-blechwarenfabrik.de

The responsible body is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.)

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of violations of data protection law, the data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority for data protection issues is the State data protection officer of the Federal State in which our company has its registered office.

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 you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another data controller, this will only be done if it is technically feasible.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http: //” to “https: //” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If the SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information, blocking, deletion

You have the right to free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipient and the purpose of the data processing and, if necessary, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of these data at any time within the framework of the applicable legal provisions. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notice if you have any further questions on the subject of personal data.

Objection to advertising emails

The use of contact data published in the context of the legal notice obligation is hereby prohibited for sending unsolicited advertising and information materials.

4. Data collection on our website

Cookies

Some of the internet pages use so-called cookies. Cookies do not damage your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, more effective and safer. 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 stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser the next time you visit.

You can configure your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when you close the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be restricted.

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions you require (e.g. shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. If other cookies (e.g. cookies for analysing your surfing behaviour) are stored, these will be treated separately in this data protection declaration.

Server log files

The website provider automatically collects and saves 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

These data will not be merged with other data sources.

The basis for data processing is Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, which allows the processing of data for the fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Contact form

If you send us inquiries using the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the request and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on these data without your consent.

The processing of the data entered in the contact form takes place exclusively on the basis of your consent (Article 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you enter in the contact form shall remain with us until you ask us to delete them, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions, in particular retention periods, remain unaffected.

Storage of the IP address

Our comment function stores the IP addresses of the users who write comments. Since we do not check comments on our site before they are activated, we need these data in order to be able to take action against the author in the event of legal violations such as insults or propaganda.

Storage duration of the comments

The comments and the associated data (e.g. IP address) are saved and remain on our website until the commented content has been completely deleted or the comments have to be deleted for legal reasons (e.g. offensive comments).

Legal basis

The comments are saved on the basis of your consent (Article 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke consent you have given at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations that have already taken place remains unaffected by the revocation.

YouTube

Our website uses plugins from the Google-operated site YouTube. The operator of the website is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

If you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plug-in, a connection to the YouTube servers will be established. The YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited.

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

YouTube is used in the interest of providing an appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

For this purpose, the browser you are using must connect to the Google servers. This gives Google knowledge that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web Fonts takes place in the interest of providing a uniform and appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font will be used by your computer.

To use the functions of Google Maps, it is necessary to save your IP address. This information is usually transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transfer.

The use of Google Maps is in the interest of providing an appealing presentation of our online offers and to make it easy to find the places we have indicated on the website. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
