A. General
For the sake of easier reading, no gender-specific distinction is made in our data protection declaration. The terms used apply, in the context of equal treatment, to both genders.

The meaning of the terminology used, for example “personal data” or its “processing” can be taken from Article 4 of the EU-General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

The users’ personal data processed in the context of this online offering, includes inventory data (e.g. customers’ names and addresses), contract data (e.g. services used, name of person responsible, payment information), usage data (e.g. Websites of our online offering visited, interest in our products) and content data (e.g. input into the contact form).

“User” includes all categories of persons affected by the data processing. These include, for example, our business partners, customers, interested parties and other visitors to our online offering.

B. Specific
Data protection declaration
We guarantee that we only collect, process, store and use your incoming data in connection with the processing of your request, as well as for internal purposes and providing the services that you have requested or to make content available.

Basis of data processing
We process the user’s personal data only in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations. The user’s data are only processed when the following statutory permission exists:

  • in order to deliver our contractual performance (e.g. Processing orders) and online services
  • processing is required by law
  • your consent is given
  • on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization, and economic operation and security of our online offering in the sense of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR, in particular range measurement, production of profiles for advertising and marketing purposes, as well as the collection of access data and the use of services from third party providers)

We would like to show you where the main legal grounds are regulated in the GDPR:

Consent

 

Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a. and Art. 7 GDPR

Processing to deliver our contractual performance and carrying out contractual measures

 

Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b. GDPR

Processing to fulfil our legal obligations

 

Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c. GDPR

Processing to safeguard our legitimate interests

 

Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR

Data transfer to third parties
We would like to advise you that, by using our online offering, it is possible that a data transfer can take place.

Data transfers to third countries or an international organization
Third countries are countries in which the GDPR is not a directly applicable law. This basically includes all countries outside the EU, respectively, the European Economic Area.

A transfer of data to a third country or an international organization may take place. Hereby is taken into consideration that relevant suitable/appropriate guarantees are present, and your enforceable rights and effective judicial remedies are available.

A copy of the appropriate guarantees can be obtained under the following links:

Length of storage of your personal data
We adhere to the principles of data economy and data avoidance. This means the data made available to us is only retained for as long as it is needed to fulfil the previously named purposes or as laid down by the manifold storage periods provided for by the legislator. If the relevant purpose no longer exists, respectively after expiry of the appropriate period, your data is routinely blocked, respectively erased, in accordance with the statutory provisions

We have developed a company-internal concept to guarantee this procedure.

We would like to tell you the legal grounds:

Processing to fulfil our performance and carry out contractual measures

 

Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b. GDPR

Processing to safeguard our legitimate interests

 

Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR

We would like to advise you that emails can be read or changed, unnoticed and without authorization, during transmission. We would also like to bring to your attention that we use software to filter unwanted emails (spam filter). Emails can be rejected by the spam filter if they are wrongly identified as spam due to the presence of certain characteristics.

What rights do you have?
a) Right to information
You have the right to obtain information about your stored data without charge. Upon request, we will tell you in writing, in accordance with current law, what personal data about you we have stored. This also includes the origin and recipient of your data as well as the purpose of the data processing.

b) Right to rectification
You have the right to have your data which is stored by us, corrected, if it is incorrect. You can demand a limitation to the processing of your personal data, e.g. if the accuracy of your personal data is contested.

c) Right to blocking
Furthermore, you can have your data blocked. So that a blocking of your data can be taken into account at any time, the data must be held in a lock file for control purposes.

d) Right to erasure
You can also demand the erasure of your personal data, so long as no legal storage obligation exists. If such an obligation exists, we will block your data on request. If appropriate statutory requirements are present, we will also erase your personal data without a request from yourself.

e) Right to data transferability
You are entitled to demand that the personal data transferred to us is made available in a format which enables it to be transferred to another location.

f) Right to complain to a supervisory authority
You have the option of approaching a data protection supervisory authority with a complaint.

g) Right to object
You have the right to object at any time to the use of your data for internal purposes with future effect. For this, it is sufficient to send an appropriate email to zorn@zorn-gmbh.de. However, such an objection does not affect the legality of processing procedures which we have already carried out. This does not affect data processing in respect of other legal bases, for example, such as contract initiation (see above)

Protection of your personal data
We take state of the art contractual, organizational and technical security measures to ensure compliance with the provisions of the data protection laws and therefore, to protect the data which we process against accidental or deliberate manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized persons.

In particular, our security measures include the encrypted transfer of data between your browser and our server. 128-bit-SSL (AES 128) encryption technology is used for this. This includes our IP address.

Thereby your personal data is protected in the context of the following points (extract):
a) Ensuring the confidentiality of your personal data
To ensure the confidentiality of the personal data which we store, we have taken various measures to control access.

b) Ensure the integrity of your personal data
To ensure the integrity of the personal data which we store, we have taken various measures to control transfer and input.

c) Ensure availability of your personal data
To ensure the availability of the personal data which we store, we have taken various measures to control orders and availability.

The security measures employed are continually improved in accordance with technical development. Despite these precautions, because of the insecure nature of the internet, we are unable to guarantee the security of your data transfers to our online offering. For this reason, all data transfers from you to our online offering are made at your own risk.

Persons who are under 16, can only provide us with their personal information with the express consent of the person having parental responsibility or they have reached the age of 16 or are older.
