Privacy policy

1. An overview of data protection

General information

The following gives a simple overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit our website. Personal information is any data with which you could be personally identified. You can find detailed information on the subject of data protection in our data privacy statement which follows afterwards.

Data collection on our website

Who is responsible for data collection on this website?

The data collected on this website is processed by the website operator. The operator’s contact details can be found in the website’s legal notice.

How do we collect your data?

Some of your data is collected when you provide it to us. This could, for example, be data you enter on a contact form.

Other data is collected automatically by our IT systems when you visit the website. This is primarily technical data (for example, the browser and operating system you are using or the time at which you accessed the page). This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter our website.

What do we use your data for?

Some of the data is collected to ensure the proper functioning of the website. Other data can be used to analyse how you use the site.

What rights do you have regarding your data?

You always have the right (and at no additional charge) to request information about your stored data, its origin, its recipients, and the purpose of its collection. You also have the right to request that it be corrected, blocked, or deleted. You can contact us at any time using the address given in the legal notice if you have further questions about the issues of our privacy policy and data protection. You may also, of course, file a complaint to the relevant regulatory authorities.

Revocation of your consent to the processing of your data

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may revoke your consent at any time with future effect. An informal email making this request is sufficient. The data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.

Right to file complaints with regulatory authorities

If there has been a breach of data protection legislation, the person affected may file a complaint with the relevant regulatory authorities. The relevant regulatory authority for matters related to data protection legislation is the Data Protection Officer of the German federal state in which our company headquarters are located. A list of data protection officers and their contact details can be found at the following link: 

https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html.

Right to data portability

You are entitled to request the data, which we process based on your consent or process automatically for the fulfilment of a contract issued to yourself or to a third party in a standard, machine-readable format. Insofar as you request that the data be transferred directly to another responsible party, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.

Analysis tools and third-party tools

When you visit our website, your surfing behaviour can be statistically evaluated. This happens mainly with cookies and with so-called analysis programs. The analysis of your surfing behaviour is usually anonymous; the surfing behaviour cannot be traced back to you. You can object to this analysis or prevent it by not using certain tools. Further information can be found in our data privacy statement.

You can object to this analysis. We will tell you about the possibilities of objection in this privacy policy.

2. General information and mandatory information

Data privacy

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data extremely seriously. We will handle your personal data confidentially and in accordance with both data protection legislation and this privacy policy.

If you use this website, various pieces of personal data will be collected. Personal information is any data with which you could be personally identified. This privacy policy explains what information we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.

We would, nevertheless, like to point out that data transmitted via the Internet (e.g. email communication) may contain security loopholes. It is not possible to protect data completely from third-party access.

Notice concerning the party responsible for this website

The party responsible for processing data on this website is:

Antonetti GmbH
Event Management
Peterbergstr. 15
79117 Freiburg
Germany

Phone: +49 (0)761 214138-0
Email: info@antonetti.com

The responsible party is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, e-mail addresses, etc.).

SSL or TLS encryption

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and for the protection of the transmission of confidential content, such as the enquiries you send to us as the site operator. An encrypted link is immediately recognisable by the fact that the browser address changes from “http://” to “https://” and a lock symbol appears in the browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transfer to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information, blocking, deletion

As permitted by law, you have the right to be provided at any time with information free of charge about any of your personal data that is stored as well as its origin, the recipient and the purpose for which it has been processed. You also have the right to have this data corrected, blocked or deleted. If you have any questions about this or other data protection-related issues, you can contact us at any time using the address listed in the legal notice.

3.Collection and storage of personal data and the nature and purpose of their use

a) When visiting the website

When you visit our website antonetti.com, information is automatically sent to the server of our website by the browser used on your end device. This information is temporarily stored in a so-called log file. The following information is recorded without your intervention and stored until it is automatically deleted:

  • IP address of the requesting computer,
  • Date and time of access
  • URL of the page from which you reached us,
  • Names of the subpages you have called up,
  • Name and URL of the retrieved file,
  • Website from which the access takes place (referrer URL),
  • the browser used and, if applicable, your computer’s operating system and the name of your access provider.

We process the data mentioned above for the following purposes:

  • To ensure a smooth connection of the website,
  • To guarantee easy use of our website,
  • To evaluate the security and stability of the system, and for
  • Other administrative purposes.

The legal basis for processing data is Art. 6 Para 1 f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest stems from the above-mentioned purposes for data collection. Under no circumstances do we use the collected data for drawing conclusions about your person. This data will not be merged with data from other sources.

Furthermore, we use cookies and analysis services when you visit our website. You will find more detailed information about this under 4 and 5 of this data privacy statement.

b) When using our contact form

If you have any questions, you are able to contact us using a form provided on the website. It is necessary to provide a valid email address so that we know who the enquiry comes from and can answer it. Further information can be provided voluntarily. If you use the contact form to send us an enquiry, the information you provide on the form, including the contact details you provide, will be stored by us in order to process your enquiry and for any follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your permission.

The data processing for the purpose of contacting us is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 a) of the GDPR on the basis of you having given your permission voluntarily.

We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Any mandatory statutory provisions, especially those regarding mandatory data retention periods, remain unaffected by this provision.

(c) Requests by email, telephone or fax

If you contact us by email, telephone or fax, your enquiry – including all personal data (name, enquiry) – will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We will not pass on this data without your permission.

Processing data

This data is processed in line with Art. 6 Para. 1 b) GDPR if your request is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases the processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 a) GDPR) and/or on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 f) GDPR), as we have a legitimate interest in the effective processing of the requests addressed to us.

We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Any mandatory statutory provisions, especially those regarding mandatory data retention periods, remain unaffected by this provision.

d) Hosting and emailing

This website is hosted by an external service provider (hoster). Personal data collected on this website is stored on the hoster’s servers.

The hosting services we use serve to provide the following services: infrastructure and platform services, computing capacity, storage space and database services, e-mail dispatch, security services and technical maintenance services used for operating this online service.

In doing so, we – or our hosting provider – process inventory data, contact data, content data, contract data, usage data, meta and communication data of customers, interested parties and visitors of these online services on the basis of our legitimate interests in an efficient and secure provision of such services in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 f) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 28 GDPR (conclusion of contract processing agreement).

Our hosting provider will only process your data to the extent necessary to fulfil its performance obligations and will follow our instructions with regard to this data.

In order to guarantee data protection-compliant processing, we have concluded a contract for order processing with our host.

Cookies

This website uses cookies. We use cookies to personalise content and ads, to provide social media features, and to analyse traffic to our website. We also share information about your use of our website with our partners involved with social media, advertising and analytics. Our partners may combine this information with other information that you have provided to them or that they have collected as part of your use of the services. You consent to our cookies if you continue to use our website.

We use cookies on our website. These are small files that are automatically created by your browser and stored on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone etc.) when you visit our site. Cookies do not cause any damage to your end device, do not contain viruses, Trojans or other malware. Information is stored in the cookie, which is determined in each case depending on the end device specifically used. This does not mean, however, that we obtain immediate knowledge of your identity. On the one hand, the use of cookies results in the use of our services being more pleasant for you. For example, we use so-called session cookies to recognise that you have already visited individual pages of our website. These are automatically deleted after leaving our site. In addition, we also use temporary cookies, which are stored on your end device for a certain fixed period of time, to optimise user-friendliness. If you visit our site again to use our services, we will automatically recognise that you have already been with us and what entries and settings you have made so that you do not have to enter them again. On the other hand, we use cookies to record the use of our website statistically and to evaluate it for the purpose of optimising our services for you. These cookies enable us to automatically recognise that you have already been with us when you visit our site again. These cookies are automatically deleted after a defined time. Most browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or so that a message always appears before a new cookie is created. However, completely deactivating cookies may mean that you will not be able to use all the functions of our website. The website operator has a legitimate interest to store cookies to ensure their optimum services can be provided free of technical issues. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for analysing your surfing behaviour) are saved, these are treated separately in this data privacy policy. The data processed by cookies is required for the purposes mentioned above in order to safeguard our legitimate interests and those of third parties in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 f) GDPR. You can change or withdraw your consent from the cookie declaration on our website at any time. Learn more about who we are, how you can contact us and how we process personal data in our privacy policy.

Edit cookie settings

Server log files

The website provider automatically records and stores information in server log files, which are automatically transmitted to us by your browser. These are as follows:

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Host name of the client device
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

This data will not be merged with data from other sources.

The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Contact form

If you use the contact form to send us an enquiry, the information you provide on the form, including the contact details you provide, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing your enquiry and for any follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your permission.

We will, therefore, process any data you enter onto the contact form only with your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 a) GDPR). You may revoke your consent at any time. An informal email making this request is sufficient. The data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.

We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Any mandatory statutory provisions, especially those regarding mandatory data retention periods, remain unaffected by this provision.

4. Disclosing information

Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties for purposes other than those listed below.

We only disclose your personal data to third parties if

• you have given your express consent pursuant to Art. 6 Para 1 a) GDPR,

• disclosure is necessary pursuant to Art. 6 Para 1 f) GDPR for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims and there is no reason to believe that you have an overriding interest in the non-disclosure of your data,

• a legal obligation to disclose the data applies pursuant to Art. 6 Para 1 c) GDPR, as well as

• this is legally permissible and required under Art. 6 Para. 1 b) GDPR for the processing of contractual relationships with you.

Cooperation with so-called contract processors and third parties

If, in the course of our processing, we disclose data to other persons and companies (contract processors or third parties), transfer it to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this will only be done on the basis of a legal authorisation (e.g. if transfer of the data to third parties is required in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 b) GDPR for fulfilment of the contract), if you yourself have given your consent, if a legal obligation provides for this or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. when using agents, web hosts, etc.).

Insofar as we entrust third parties with the task of processing data on the basis of a “commissioned processing contract”, the transfer of data is made on the basis of Art. 28 GDPR.

Transfer to third countries

If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)), or if this is done in the context of using the services of third parties or disclosure or transfer of data to third parties, this will only take place if it is done to fulfil our (pre-)contractual obligations, on the basis of your consent, on the basis of a legal obligation or on the basis of our legitimate interest. Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we process or store the data in a third country only if the special conditions of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR apply. In other words, the processing is carried out on the basis of specific guarantees, such as the officially recognised establishment of a level of data protection equivalent to that of the EU (e.g. in the US by means of the “Privacy Shield”) or compliance with officially recognised specific contractual obligations (so-called “standard contractual clauses”).

5. Analytics and advertising

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics, These services are provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files saved on your computer, in order to help analyse how the customer uses the site. The information generated by the cookie concerning your use of this website will normally be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and saved there.

Google Analytics cookies are stored based on Art. Para. 6 Para. 1 f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour to optimise both its website and its advertising.

IP address anonymisation

We have activated the IP anonymisation feature on this website. This means that Google abbreviates your IP address in EU Member States or in other states which are party to the Agreement in the European Economic Area before sending it to the USA. Only in exceptional circumstances will your entire IP address be transmitted to Google in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to analyse your use of the website, create reports on the website activities and to perform other services for the website operator concerning website and Internet usage. The IP address of your browser used by Google Analytics will not appear in conjunction with any other data from Google.

Browser plug-in

You can prevent cookies being saved on your computer by adjusting your browser settings. However, we would like to point out that this may mean that you will not be able to use all the functions of this website. You can also prevent the data generated by cookies about your use of the website (incl. your IP address) from being passed to Google, and the processing of this data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en-GB.

Revoking the recording of your data

You can prevent Google Analytics from recording your data by clicking on the following link. This then sets an opt-out cookie which prevents your data from being recorded when you visit this website in the future: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/eula.html?hl=en-GB. 

For more information about how Google Analytics handles user data, see Google’s privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

Order Data Processing (ODP)

We have signed an agreement with Google on ODP and comply fully with the strict guidelines set by the German Data Protection Authority on using Google Analytics.

Google Analytics demographic features

This website uses the “demographic features” function of Google Analytics, which allows reports to be prepared on statements regarding age, gender and interests of the persons visiting the website. This data stems from interest-based advertising from Google as well as visitor data collected by third-party providers, and cannot be attributed to any person in particular. You can disable this function at any time in your Google account by simply changing the ads settings or generally prohibiting your data from being stored by Google Analytics such as stated in the menu option “Disable data collection”.

7. In-house services

Handling of applicant data 

We offer you the opportunity to apply for a job with us (e.g. by email, by post or via contact form). Please find below details regarding the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected during the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing and use of your data will be in accordance with the applicable data protection laws and all other legal requirements and that your data will be treated in strict confidence.

Scope and purpose of data collection

If you send us an application, we process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during job interviews, etc.) to the extent that this is necessary to decide whether to establish an employment relationship.

The legal basis for this is Article 26 of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG-neu initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 Para. 1b) GDPR (processing of data prior to entering into a contract) and – if you have given your consent – Art. 6 Para. 1 a) GDPR. The consent can be revoked at any time. Within our company, your personal data will only be passed on to persons who are involved in the processing of your application. If the application is successful, the data submitted by you will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Article 26 Federal Data Protection Act and Art. 6 Para. 1 b) GDPR for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship.

Data retention period 

If we are unable to offer you a job, if you reject a job offer or if we withdraw your application, we reserve the right to keep the data you have submitted with us for up to 6 months from the end of the application procedure (rejection or withdrawal of the application) on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 f) GDPR). The data is then deleted and the hard copy and/or digital application documents destroyed. The storage serves, in particular, as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required after the 6-month period (e.g. due to an imminent or pending legal dispute), the data will only be deleted when the purpose for further storage no longer applies. A longer storage period can also take place if you have given your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 a) GDPR) or if legal storage obligations prevent deletion.

8. Data protection responsibility on linked pages

We are solely responsible for the websites published on the domain antonetti.com, but not for the websites of other providers that may be linked from our website.

We will not pass on this data without your permission.

The data processing for the purpose of contacting us is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 a) GDPR on the basis of you having given your permission voluntarily.

We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request).

You can tell whether an individual page of our website is transmitted in encrypted form by the closed display of the key or lock symbol in the lower status bar of your browser.

We also use appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or unauthorised access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
