1. What are personal data?

The term personal data is defined in the Bundesdatenschutzgesetz (Federal Data Protection Act) and the GDPR. According to these laws, these are individual details about personal or factual circumstances of a specific or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, your civil name, your address, your telephone number or your date of birth. Find out more about what exactly data protection is here.

2. Scope of anonymous data collection and data processing

Unless otherwise stated in the following sections, no personal data is collected, processed or used when using our websites. However, by using analysis and tracking tools, we learn certain technical information based on the data transmitted by your browser (e.g. browser type/version, operating system used, web pages visited on our website incl. length of stay, previously visited website). We evaluate this information for statistical purposes only.

3. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Where we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations involving personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. a) EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.
Art. 6 (1) lit. b) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party. This also applies to processing operations necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures.
Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) lit. c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In cases where vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make it necessary to process personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or of a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

4. Use of cookies

The internet pages of Products Up GmbH use cookies. Cookies are data that are stored by the Internet browser on the user's computer system. The cookies can be transmitted to a page when it is called up and thus enable the user to be assigned to it. Cookies help to simplify the use of Internet pages for the user.

It is possible to object to the setting of cookies at any time by changing the setting in the Internet browser accordingly. Set cookies can be deleted. Please note that if cookies are deactivated, it may not be possible to use all functions of our website to their full extent. The user data collected in this way is pseudonymized by technical precautions. It is therefore no longer possible to assign the data to the calling user. The data is not stored together with other personal data of the users. When accessing our website, users are informed by an info banner about the use of cookies for analysis purposes and are referred to this data protection declaration. In this context, there is also a note on how the storage of cookies can be prevented in the browser settings. The legal basis for the processing of personal data using technically necessary cookies is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Google Analytics 4

Description and purpose

This website uses the "Google Analytics 4" service, which is provided by Google LLC, to analyze website usage by users. The service uses "cookies" - text files that are stored on your terminal device. First party cookies are used for this purpose. With a first party cookie, the user can only be recognized by the site from which the cookie originated, not across multiple domains. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there. If necessary, Google Analytics is used on this website with the code "gat.anonymizeIp();" to ensure anonymized collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). Please also note the following information on the use of Google Analytics: The IP address of users is shortened within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. This shortening eliminates the personal reference of your IP address. For EU citizens, the IP address is also only used to derive location data and then deleted again. You also have the option to activate or deactivate the collection of detailed location and device data for individual regions (tracking settings). As part of the order processing agreement that the website operators have concluded with Google LLC, the latter uses the collected information to create an evaluation of website use and website activity and provides services associated with internet use.

Legal basis

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

Recipient

The recipient of your personal data is Google LLC. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA).

We have concluded standard contractual clauses with the data importer for this purpose. In addition, we are aware of our responsibility and, where necessary, take further measures to protect the rights and freedoms of natural persons to ensure the protection of personal data. Duration of data storage Data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In addition, the data will be deleted if you assert your right to deletion as defined in Art. 17 (1) GDPR. The maximum storage period is 14 months.

Revocation

You have the right to revoke your consent at any time, cf. Art. 7 (3) p. 1 GDPR. This can be done informally and without giving reasons and is effective for the future.

Google Ads and Conversion Tracking

Description and Purpose

To draw attention to our current projects and developments, planned activities and services, we run Google AdWords ads and use Google Conversion Tracking to do so. Google AdWords (Google Ads) is a service of Google LLC. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). These ads appear after searches on web pages in the Google advertising network. We have the ability to combine our ads with specific search terms. We also use AdWords remarketing lists for search ads. This enables us to adapt search ad campaigns for users who have already visited our website. Through the services, we have the ability to combine our ads with specific search terms or to serve ads to previous visitors, such as advertising services that visitors have viewed on our site. For interest-based offers, an analysis of online user behavior is necessary. Google uses cookies to perform this analysis. When clicking on an advertisement or visiting our website, Google sets a cookie on the user's computer. This information is used in order to be able to address the visitor in a targeted manner in a subsequent search query. Further information on the cookie technology used can also be found in Google's notes on website statistics and in the data protection regulations. With the help of this technology, Google and we as customers receive information about when a user has clicked on an advertisement and been redirected to our websites to contact us via the contact form. Google and we as a customer also use Google's referral numbers to obtain information about when a user clicks on one of our phone numbers on the web and contacts us by phone. The information obtained in this way is used exclusively for statistical evaluation for ad optimisation. We do not receive any information that can be used to identify visitors personally. The statistics provided to us by Google include the total number of users who clicked on one of our ads and, if applicable, whether they were redirected to a page on our website that has a conversion tag. These statistics allow us to see which search terms lead to the most frequent clicks on our ads and which ads lead to users contacting us via the contact form or by phone. With regard to telephone contact by interested parties or customers, the statistics provided by Google include the start time, end time, status (missed or received), duration (seconds), area code of the caller, telephone costs and call type.

Legal Basis

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

Recipient

The recipient of your personal data is Google LLC. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA), where applicable. The data controller responsible for processing your information will depend on your habitual residence, unless otherwise stated in the privacy notice of a particular service:

Google Ireland Limited for users of Google services who are habitually resident in the European Economic Area or Switzerland.
Google LLC for users of Google services who are habitually resident in the United Kingdom.

Transfers to Third Countries

The personal data is transferred to the USA (server location). The transfer is subject to appropriate safeguards according to Art. 46 of the GDPR. For this purpose, we have concluded Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) according to Art. 46 (2) (c) GDPR with the data importer.

Meta-Pixel

Description and Purpose

To recognize your user behavior, we use the so-called Meta-pixel from Meta Platforms Inc.. 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA. This is an analysis tool with which the effectiveness of the advertising can be measured. It is a code snippet for the website, which can be used to measure, optimize and build up for advertising campaign target groups. Conversion measurement allows us to track what people do after they see our Facebook ads across devices (including mobile phones, tablets and desktop computers). By creating a Meta-pixel and adding it to our pages where conversions are made (e.g., the Purchase Confirmation page), we can determine which people are making conversions based on our Facebook Ads. The pixel is used to further monitor the actions that people take after clicking on our ads. It allows us to determine on which device our customers saw the ad and on which devices they ultimately performed the conversion. According to Facebook, the data collected includes

HTTP headers

HTTP headers contain a variety of information that is sent over a standard web protocol between any browser request and any server on the Internet. HTTP headers contain information such as IP addresses (which in Germany can only be evaluated at the general country level), information about the web browser, page location, document, URI reference and user agent of the web browser.

Pixel-specific data

This includes the pixel ID and Facebook cookie data used to associate events with a specific Facebook advertising account and to associate it with a person known to Facebook.

Optional values

Developers and marketers can optionally send additional information about the visit through standard and custom data events. Typical custom data events include information about whether a purchase was made on a page, conversion value, and more. For more information about custom data events, click here. With your consent, we use the "visitor action pixel" of Metaplatforms Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA or if you are located in the EU, Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland, within our website. This conversion tool allows us to track your actions after you have seen or clicked on a Facebook advertisement. This is used to monitor and analyze the effectiveness of our Facebook Ads for statistical and market research purposes. Although we can only recognize this data in anonymized form, Facebook also stores and processes this data. What exactly Facebook does with this data is not known to us, but it can be assumed that Facebook can and will link this data to your Facebook account. Thus, Facebook can use this information for the purpose of advertising, market research and demand-oriented design of Facebook pages. For this purpose, Facebook and its partners create usage, interest and relationship profiles, e.g. to evaluate your use of our website with regard to the advertisements displayed to you on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website and to provide other services associated with the use of Facebook. Cookies can also be stored on your PC for this purpose. For the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of data by Facebook, as well as your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy, please refer to the Facebook data protection information. The data may be merged with other Facebook services, such as Custom Audiences.

Extended adjustment

Advertisers can optionally enable the advanced Meta-pixel matching feature by sending encrypted information such as email address or phone number to Facebook. Advertisers can send one or more of the following identifiers for matching: Email address, phone number, first name, last name, city, state, zip code, date of birth, or gender.

9. Duration of storage of personal data

Personal data is stored for the duration of the respective legal retention period. After expiry of the period, the data is routinely deleted, unless it is necessary for the initiation or fulfilment of a contract.

10. Contact opportunities

On the internet pages of Products Up GmbH there is a contact form which can be used for electronic contact. Alternatively, it is possible to contact us via the provided e-mail address. If the data subject contacts the data controller via one of these channels, the personal data transmitted by the data subject is automatically stored. The storage is solely for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. The data will not be passed on to third parties. The legal basis for the processing of the data is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR if the user has given his or her consent. The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If the e-mail contact is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. For personal data from the input mask of the contact form and those sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is terminated when it can be concluded from the circumstances that the matter in question has been finally clarified. The personal data additionally collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of seven days at the latest.

11. Routine deletion and blocking of personal data

The controller shall process and store personal data relating to the data subject only for as long as necessary to achieve the purpose of storage. In addition, data may be stored for as long as this is provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. As soon as the storage purpose ceases to apply or a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned regulations expires, the personal data is routinely blocked or deleted.

Right to rectification acc. to Art. 16 GDPR

You have the right to obtain from the data controller the rectification and/or integration of any personal data processed concerning you if it is incorrect or incomplete. The data controller shall make the correction without delay.

Right to erasure acc. to Art. 17 GDPR

(1) You may request the controller to delete your personal data immediately and the controller is obliged to delete such data immediately if one of the following reasons applies:

a. The personal data concerning you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.

b. You revoke your consent on which the processing was based in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.

c. You object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR and there are no legitimate reasons for the processing which take precedence, or you object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 (2) GDPR.

d. The personal data concerning you have been processed unlawfully

e. The deletion of personal data concerning you is necessary to comply with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.

f. The personal data concerning you have been collected in relation to information society services offered, in accordance with Art. 8 (1) GDPR.

(2) If the controller has made your personal data public and is obliged to delete them in accordance with Art. 17 (1) GDPR, he shall take reasonable measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and implementation costs, to inform data controllers who process the personal data that you, as a data subject, have requested them to delete all links to these personal data or copies or replications of these personal data.

(3) The right to erasure shall not apply where the processing is necessary

a. for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information;

b. to comply with a legal obligation to which the processing is subject under Union or national law to which the controller is subject, or to carry out a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;

e. to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

Right to restriction of processing acc. to Art. 18 GDPR

Under the following conditions, you may request the restriction of the processing of your personal data:

a. if you dispute the accuracy of your personal data for a period of time that allows the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;

b. if the processing is unlawful and you refuse to delete the personal data and instead request the restriction of the use of the personal data;

c. if the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you need them for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims; or

d. if you have lodged an objection to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate reasons of the controller outweigh your reasons.

If the processing of your personal data has been restricted, these data - apart from their storage - may only be processed with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of major public interest of the Union or a Member State. If the restriction on processing has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

Notification obligation regarding rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing acc. to Art. 19 GDPR

If you have exercised the right to rectify, erase or limit the processing, the controller is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed of this rectification, erasure or limitation of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed of these recipients by the controller.

Right to data portability acc. to Art. 20 GDPR

You have the right to receive your personal data, which you have provided to the responsible person, in a structured, common and machine-readable format. In addition, you have the right to transfer this data to another responsible party without hindrance by the responsible party to whom the personal data has been made available, if

a. the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR and

b. the processing is carried out using automated procedures. In exercising this right, you also have the right to request that your personal data be transferred directly from one responsible party to another, insofar as this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons may not be impaired by this. The right to data transferability shall not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Right of objection acc. to Art. 21 GDPR

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The controller will no longer process your personal data unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to processing of your personal data for such marketing; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes. You have the possibility, in connection with the use of information society services - notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC - to exercise your right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law pursuant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR

You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority acc. to Art. 77 GDPR

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, place of employment or place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR. The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been lodged will inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Art. 78 GDPR.

Automated decision in individual cases including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing - including profiling - which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision

a. is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the controller,

b. is permitted by legal provisions of the Union or the Member States to which the controller is subject, and these legal provisions contain appropriate measures to protect your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, or

c. is done with your explicit consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9 (1) GDPR, unless Art. 9 (2) (a) or (g) applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect the rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.

With regard to the cases mentioned in a. and c., the controller shall take reasonable steps to safeguard the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, which include, at a minimum, the right to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to object to the decision.

11.10 Right to complain to a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority, in particular in the member State of its place of residence, employment or the place of the alleged infringement, if you believe that the processing of your personal data violates against GDPR.

The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been submitted shall inform the complainant of the status and results of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under article 78 of the GDPR.

13. Data transmission to third countries

The controller may transfer personal data to a third country. In principle, the controller may provide various appropriate safeguards to ensure that an adequate level of protection is provided for the processing operations. It is possible to transfer data transfers on the basis of an adequacy finding, internal data protection rules, approved codes of conduct, standard data protection clauses or an approved certification mechanism pursuant to Art. 46 (2) (a) - (f) GDPR.

If the person responsible undertakes a transfer to a third country on the legal basis of Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR, you will be informed at this point about the possible risks of a data transfer to a third country.

There is a risk that the third country receiving your personal data may not provide an equivalent level of protection compared to the protection of personal data in the European Union. This may be the case, for example, if the EU Commission has not issued an adequacy decision for the third country in question or if certain agreements between the European Union and the third country in question are declared invalid. Specifically, there are risks in some third countries with regard to the effective protection of EU fundamental rights through the use of monitoring laws (e.g. USA). In such a case, it is the responsibility of the controller and the recipient to assess whether the rights of data subject in the third country enjoy a level of protection equivalent to that in the Union and can be effectively enforced.

However, the basic data protection regulation should not undermine the level of protection of natural persons ensured throughout the Union when personal data are transferred from the Union to controllers, processors or other recipients in third countries or to international organizations, even if personal data are further transferred from a third country or from an international organization to controllers or processors in the same or another third country or to the same or another international organization.

Applications

By submitting their application to us, applicants agree to the processing of their data for the purposes of the application procedure in accordance with the type and scope described in this data protection declaration. The legal basis for the processing of applicant data is Art. 88 GDPR, § 26 BDSG-neu (Federal Data Protection Act) and Art. 9 (2) (b) GDPR. Insofar as special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) GDPR are voluntarily communicated as part of the application procedure, they will also be processed in accordance with Art. 9 (2) (b) GDPR (e.g. health data, such as severely disabled status or ethnic origin). Insofar as special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) GDPR are requested from applicants within the framework of the application procedure, their processing is additionally carried out in accordance with Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR (e.g. health data if these are necessary for the exercise of the profession). If made available, applicants can submit their applications to us by means of an online form on our website. The data will be transmitted to us in encrypted form according to the state of the art. Applicants can also send us their applications by e-mail. Please note, however, that e-mails are generally not encrypted and that applicants must ensure that they are encrypted themselves. We can therefore not assume any responsibility for the transmission path of the application between the sender and the receipt on our server and therefore recommend rather to use an online form or the postal dispatch. This is because instead of applying via the online form and e-mail, applicants still have the option of sending us their application by post. In the event of a successful application, the data provided by the applicants can be processed by us for the purposes of the employment relationship. Otherwise, if the application for a job offer is not successful, the applicants' data is deleted. Applicants' data is also deleted if an application is withdrawn, which applicants are entitled to do at any time. The data will be deleted after the expiry of a period of six months so that we can answer any follow-up questions regarding the application and meet our obligations to provide evidence under the General Equal Treatment Act. Invoices for any reimbursement of travel expenses will be archived in accordance with tax law requirements.

Safety

We have taken extensive technical and operational precautions to protect your data from accidental or deliberate manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorised persons. Our security procedures are regularly reviewed and adapted to technological progress. In addition, we guarantee data protection on an ongoing basis by constantly auditing and optimizing our data protection organization.
