Privacy Protection Policy

at Ferdinand Gross GmbH & Co. KG

Ferdinand Gross GmbH & Co. KG (hereinafter referred to as “FG”) has a strong interest in the security of data processing and the careful handling and use of personal data. In the face of rapid developments in the field of information technology, we seek to carry out higher security requirements regarding the individual and commercial business dealings. It is our explicit aim to protect the personal rights of our customers, business partners and staff. In this regard, we would like to illustrate how FG respects and protects the confidentiality of your personal data. Additionally, we would like to explain your rights concerning individual consent relative to personal information.

Every time you access FG’s internet-based offers or when you request any information from FG, the data received through these methods is stored in a log file.

Specifically, the following data is stored in conjunction with every request and/or order:

- Name of the requested data
- Date and time of request
- Amount and size of downloaded data
- Notification regarding successful execution of order
- Access method/function of the computer used to request information
- Description of the type of web browser used
- Type of operating system used
- Page/Website from which the information was requested and/or received
- IP-Address of the accessing host and/or client system

This data is evaluated for statistical purposes as well as in the case of technical problems. This data will not be shared with a third party.

Moreover, any entries made in the Online-Shop, or on the registration pages in conjunction with an inquiry as well as any data related to the user(s) will be saved and/or automatically processed as it relates to the necessary development of the contract scope, to supporting an on-going customer relationship, to ensuring quality controls as well to exchanging information. Please note you have the right to reject the use of your data at any time.

Your information will only be forwarded to a third party (for example: business partners, affiliates, service providers, and/or auxiliary agents) only when specifically required by FG for its own purposes. For the purposes of executing certain data processing tasks, FG may use third-party service providers. Ferdinand Gross GmbH & Co. KG safeguards the confidential handling of the collected data. In case of sharing information with third parties (business partners, affiliates, service providers, and/or auxiliary agents), these third parties are, thus, obligated to act in accordance with privacy protection regulations. This liability also remains in effect after the termination of any related contract.

Your Rights

Upon request, FG will inform you in written form when personal data is stored as well as what type of personal data are retained by us. FG does everything within its power to ensure that all stored data is accurate and up-to-date. However, if any incorrect information is stored, FG will correct this information upon your request. Your consent is a pre-condition for the use of your data. If, at any time, you no longer consent to the use of your data, please contact FG informally in writing so that we can either restrict the use of and/or delete your data.
