PRIVACY POLICY

DATA PROTECTION
GRUENHEIM appreciates your interest in its products and your visit to this website. Your privacy is important to us and we want you to feel comfortable visiting our site. The protection of your privacy in the processing of your personal data is an important concern to which we pay special attention in our business processes. Personal data collected during visits to our websites are processed by us according to the legal provisions valid for the countries in which the websites are maintained. GRUENHEIM websites may include links to other websites which are not covered by this privacy statement.

COLLECTION AND PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA
When you visit our website, our web servers may temporarily store as standard details of your browser and operating system, the website from which you visit our website, the pages that you visit on our website, the date of your visit, and, for security reasons, e.g. to identify attacks on our website, the IP address assigned to you by your internet service provider. Personal data is only stored if you choose to submit it to us, e.g. during registration, in a survey, in a competition or in order to enable performance of an agreement.

USE AND DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA AND PURPOSE SPECIFICATION
GRUENHEIM uses your personal data only to the extent necessary for the purpose of technical administration of the website, for customer management, for product surveys, and for marketing. Personal data is transferred to state organisations and authorities only within the scope of mandatory national provisions of law.

CHOICE
We would like to use your data to inform you about our products and services and, if applicable, to ask you about them. Of course, participation in such activities is voluntary. If you do not wish to take part, you can notify us at any time so that we can exclude your data accordingly.

SOCIAL PLUGINS
GRUENHEIM uses so-called social plugins ('buttons') of social networks such as for example Facebook. When you visit our websites, these buttons are deactivated by default, i.e. without your intervention they will not send any data to the respective social network. Before you are able to use these buttons, you must activate them by clicking on them. They then remain active until you deactivate them again or delete your cookies. After their activation, a direct link to the server of the respective social network is established. The contents of the button are then transmitted from the social network directly to your browser and incorporated in the website. After activation of a button, the social network can retrieve data, independently of whether you interact with the button or not. If you are logged on to a social network, the network can assign your visit to the website to your user account. A social network cannot assign a visit to other GRUENHEIM websites unless and until you activate the respective button there as well. If you are a member of a social network and do not wish it to combine data retrieved from your visit to our websites with your membership data, you must log out from the social network concerned before activating the buttons. We have no influence on the scope of data that is collected by the social networks through their buttons. The data use policies of the social networks provide information on the purpose and extent of the data that they collect, how this data is processed and used, the rights available to you and the settings that you can use to protect your privacy.

ANALYSIS OF USAGE DATA
We may use systems to track the preferences of visitors and to identify popular sections of our websites. In this way, we can adapt the content of our website more specifically to your needs and thereby improve what we offer you. If you do not wish GRUENHEIM to collect and analyse statistical data related to your visit you may object to the future use of your date at any time (opt-out).

SECURITY
GRUENHEIM uses technical and organisational security measures to protect the data supplied by you and managed by us against manipulation, loss, destruction, and access by third parties. Our security measures are continually improved in line with technological developments.

FREEDOM OF INFORMATION
On request, GRUENHEIM or the entity responsible for you will inform you in writing as soon as possible and in accordance with applicable law whether and what personal data relating to you has been stored by us.
