Privacy policy

We take the protection of your personal data very seriously when collecting, processing and using it during your visit to our website and want you to know when we collect which data and how we use it.


This Privacy Policy informs users about the nature, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by us on this website. The legal basis for data protection can essentially be found in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), and the Telemedia Act (TMG).


Controller

The entity named in the imprint is responsible for the data collection and processing described below.


Storage of the IP address

You can generally use our online service anonymously without disclosing your identity. However, every access to our website and every retrieval of a file stored on the website is automatically and anonymously logged. This storage serves internal system-related and statistical purposes. All data transmitted to us by the browser is automatically logged (the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).



Usage data

Der zuvor genannte Datensatz besteht aus


The aforementioned data set consists of the page from which the file was requested, the file name, the date and time of the request, the amount of data transferred, the access status (file transferred, file not found), a description of the type of web browser used and the IP address of the requesting computer, which is shortened so that a personal reference can no longer be established.

This data cannot generally be assigned to a specific person. It will not be merged with other data sources. However, we reserve the right to subsequently review the log data if there is reasonable suspicion of illegal use based on concrete evidence.




Data transfer to third parties

We do not transfer your personal data to external third parties.


To the extent necessary to fulfil the contract or to process your request, we will use your data in whole or in part, subject to the above-mentioned provisions, within the M Food Group (Meat Cracks Technologie GmbH, MicroTec GmbH, STAR-MIX Meat Technology GmbH).


To the extent we use service providers to support us in operating our websites (e.g. hosting) and related processes, this is done within the framework of order processing in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. Our service providers are strictly bound to compliance with our instructions and are contractually bound to us.



Enquiries via the contact form, email

You can contact us via our contact form. To use our contact form, we first need the data marked as mandatory.


We use this data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (1) (f) GDPR to answer your enquiry.


You can also decide for yourself whether you want to provide us with further information. This information is provided voluntarily and is not mandatory for contacting us. We process your voluntary information based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (1) (a) GDPR.


Your data will only be processed to answer your enquiry. We will delete your data if it is no longer required and there are no legal retention periods to the contrary.


If your data submitted via the contact form is processed on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (1) (f) GDPR, you can object to the processing at any time. You can also revoke your consent to the processing of voluntary information at any time. To do so, please contact the email address provided in the imprint.


We protect your data with the necessary technical and organisational measures to prevent misuse by third parties.




Map services

We embed map services on our websites that are not stored on our servers. To ensure that accessing our websites with embedded map services does not automatically result in third-party content being loaded, we initially only display locally stored preview images of the maps. This does not provide the third-party provider with any information.


Third-party content is only loaded once you have clicked on the preview image. This provides the third-party provider with the information that you have accessed our site and the usage data technically required in this context. We have no influence on the further processing of data by the third-party provider. By clicking on the preview image, you consent to the loading of content from the third-party provider.


This embedding is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (1) (a) GDPR, provided you have previously given your consent by clicking on the preview image.


Please note that embedding some map services results in your data being processed outside the EU or EEA. In some countries, there is a risk that authorities may access the data for security and surveillance purposes without you being informed or being able to exercise legal recourse. If we use providers in unsafe third countries and you consent, the transfer to an unsafe third country will be based on Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR.

Google Analytics

We use the web analysis tool ‘Google Analytics’ to tailor our website to meet your needs. Google Analytics creates user profiles based on pseudonyms. For this purpose, permanent cookies are stored on your device and read by us. This allows us to recognise and count returning visitors as such.


Within the scope of Google Analytics, Google Ireland Limited and Google LLC (USA) support us as order processors pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR. Data processing may therefore also take place outside the EU or the EEA. With regard to Google LLC, an adequate level of data protection cannot be assumed due to processing in the USA. There is a risk that authorities may access the data for security and surveillance purposes without you being informed or having the opportunity to exercise legal recourse. Please note this if you decide to consent to our use of Google Analytics.


The data processing is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (1) (a) GDPR, provided you have given your consent via our banner. Transfer to a third country is based on Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time. To do so, please follow this link and perform the appropriate settings via our banner.


Third-party tracking technologies for advertising purposes

We use cross-device tracking technologies so that targeted advertising can be displayed to you on other websites based on your visit to our websites and so that we can determine how effective our advertising measures have been.


The data processing is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (1) (a) GDPR, provided you have given your consent via our banner. Your consent is voluntary and can be revoked at any time.


How does tracking work?


When you visit our websites, the third-party providers listed below may retrieve recognition features for your browser or device (e.g. a so-called browser fingerprint), evaluate your IP address, store or read recognition features on your device (e.g. cookies) or gain access to individual tracking pixels.


The third-party providers can use the individual features to recognise your device on other websites. We may commission the relevant third-party providers to place advertisements based on the pages you visit on our website.


What does cross-device tracking mean?


If you log in to the third-party provider using your own user data, the respective recognition features of different browsers and devices can be linked. For example, if the third-party provider has created a separate feature for the laptop, desktop PC, smartphone or tablet you use, these individual features can be associated with each other as soon as you use a third-party service with your login details. In this way, the third-party provider can target our advertising campaigns across different devices.


Which third-party providers do we use for this purpose?


You can find a list of the third-party providers with whom we work for advertising purposes below. If the data is processed outside the EU or the EEA in this context, please note that there is a risk that authorities will access the data for security and surveillance purposes without you being informed or being able to exercise legal recourse. If we use providers in unsafe third countries and you consent, the transfer to a third country will be based on Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR. If the data is processed outside the EU or the EEA, we will provide information on the appropriate level of data protection. You can also find out how to revoke your consent:

Furthermore, we use Google Remarketing, provided you have consented to this in our cookie banner when you first visited the website. This is a Google service that enables us to address our advertising placed on Google or by third parties in an optimised, targeted manner. Cookies are also used for this purpose. These are cookies from Google and DoubleClick, and possibly other third parties. Regardless of the consent you have given, you can object to the use of Google Remarketing by preventing cookies from being set by Google and/or DoubleClick or by using Google’s opt-out options. You can find more information about Google advertising here.


Data security


We have put technical and organisational measures in place to protect your data from unwanted access to the most comprehensive degree possible. We use an encryption procedure on our websites. Your information is transferred from your computer to our server and vice versa via the Internet, using TLS encryption. You recognise this by verifying that the lock symbol in the status bar of your browser is closed and the address bar begins with https://.


YOUR RIGHTS AS A USER

When processing your personal data, the GDPR grants you, as a website user, certain rights:


Right to information (Art. 15 GDPR):

You have the right to request confirmation as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed; if so, you have the right to information about this personal data and to the information detailed in Art. 15 GDPR.


Right to rectification and deletion (Art. 16 and 17 GDPR):

You have the right to request the immediate rectification of any incorrect personal data related to you and, if necessary, to the completion of any incomplete personal data.


You also have the right to demand that personal data relating to you be deleted immediately if one of the reasons listed in Art. 17 GDPR apply, e.g. if the data is no longer required for the pursued purposes.


Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR):

You have the right to demand the restriction of processing if one of the conditions as listed in Art. 18 GDPR is present, e.g. if you have submitted an objection against the processing for the duration of a possible inspection.


Right to data transferability (Art. 20 GDPR):

In certain cases, which are listed in detail in Art. 20 GDPR, you have the right to receive the personal data related to you in a structured, commonly-used and machine-readable format, or to request the transfer of this data to a third party.


Right of objection (Art. 21 GDPR):

If data is collected on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (data processing to protect legitimate interests), you have the right to object to processing at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. We will then no longer process this personal data, unless verifiable and compelling grounds for processing exist, which are worthy of protection and outweigh the interests, rights and liberties of the data subject, or when the processing serves the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.


Right of complaint to a supervisory authority

In accordance with Art. 77 GDPR, you have the right to submit a complaint to a supervisory authority if you are of the opinion that the processing of the data concerning you violates data privacy regulations. In particular, the right to complaint may be exercised before a supervisory authority in the Member State in which you live, at your place of work or at the place where the alleged infringement was committed.
