Hint

As a precaution, we would like to point out to the users of this website that the transmission of data on the Internet (e.g. in e-mail traffic) can have security gaps, which is why data security cannot be guaranteed in the case of unencrypted communication. Upon specific and explicit request, we offer users the option of using encrypted communication by prior arrangement.

Cookies

Cookies are used on our website to make this website more user-friendly and secure. Cookies are not harmful to the user and do not contain viruses; they are merely stored as text files on the recipient device and saved by the browser. The majority of these cookies are automatically deleted at the end of the visit to the website, although a few cookies are stored on the recipient device in order to make the browser recognisable on subsequent visits to our website. The user is free to configure their own browser settings so that the use of cookies is restricted and/or these cookies are automatically deleted again immediately.

The user can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in their browser software. In addition, the storage of data and its processing and forwarding to Google, for example, can be prevented by downloading and installing a browser plug-in (Browser plugin).

Our social media presence

This privacy policy applies to the following social media sites

https://www.facebook.com/lacont.umwelttechnik

https://www.instagram.com/lacont_umwelttechnik/

https://de.linkedin.com/company/lacont-umwelttechnik-gmbh

Data processing by social networks

We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social networks. The individual social networks we use are listed below.

Social networks such as LinkedIn etc. can generally analyse your user behaviour comprehensively when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners). Visiting our social media presences triggers numerous data protection-relevant processing operations. In detail:

If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In this case, this data collection takes place, for example, via cookies that are stored on your end device or by recording your IP address.

With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, interest-based advertising can be displayed to you inside and outside the respective social media presence. If you have an account with the respective social network, the interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices on which you are logged in or were logged in.

Please also note that we cannot track all processing operations on the social media portals. Depending on the provider, further processing operations may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. For details, please refer to the terms of use and data protection provisions of the respective social media portals.

Legal basis

Our social media presence is intended to ensure the widest possible presence on the Internet. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on different legal bases, which must be specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).

Responsible party and assertion of rights

If you visit one of our social media sites (e.g. Facebook), we are jointly responsible with the operator of the social media platform for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. You can assert your rights (information, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint) both against us and against the operator of the respective social media portal (e.g. Facebook).

Please note that, despite our joint responsibility with the social media portal operators, we do not have full control over the data processing operations of the social media portals. Our options are largely determined by the company policy of the respective provider.

Storage duration

The data collected directly by us via the social media presence will be deleted from our systems as soon as you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your end device until you delete them. Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

We have no influence on the storage period of your data that is stored by the operators of the social networks for their own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the social networks directly (e.g. in their privacy policy, see below).

Your rights

You have the right to receive information about the origin, recipient and purpose of your stored personal data free of charge at any time. You also have the right to object, the right to data portability and the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. Furthermore, you can request the rectification, blocking, erasure and, under certain circumstances, the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
