3. General Information and Mandatory Information

Data Protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations and this Privacy Policy.

When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.

Please note that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Information on the Controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

conmoto GmbH
Hafenweg 26a
48155 Münster
Germany

Managing Director: Johannes Wagner

Telephone: +49 251 284 685 0
Email: info@conmoto.com

The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses or similar).

Storage Period

Unless a more specific storage period has been stated in this Privacy Policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a justified request for deletion or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. tax or commercial retention obligations); in the latter case, deletion will take place once these reasons no longer apply.

General Information on the Legal Bases for Data Processing on This Website

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR if special categories of data pursuant to Art. 9 (1) GDPR are processed. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is additionally based on Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access to information on your device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), data processing is additionally based on Section 25 (1) TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time. If your data is required for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. We also process your data if this is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR. Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Information on the respective applicable legal bases is provided in the following sections of this Privacy Policy.

Information on Data Transfers to Third Countries That Are Not Considered Safe Under Data Protection Law and Transfers to US Companies That Are Not DPF-Certified

Among other things, we use tools from companies based in third countries that are not considered safe under data protection law, as well as US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these countries. Please note that a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU cannot be guaranteed in third countries that are not considered safe under data protection law.

Please note that the USA is generally considered a safe third country and therefore generally provides a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU. Data may therefore be transferred to the USA if the recipient has certification under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF) or if suitable additional safeguards are in place. Information on transfers to third countries, including the recipients of the data, can be found in this Privacy Policy.

Recipients of Personal Data

As part of our business activities, we work with various external parties. In some cases, this also requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only disclose personal data to external parties if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. disclosure of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR in the disclosure or if another legal basis permits the transfer of data. When using data processors, we only disclose our customers' personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the event of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent that you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Specific Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6 (1) (E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED, UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21 (1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL THEN NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21 (2) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract provided to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be carried out where technically feasible.

Access, Rectification and Deletion

Within the framework of applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, where applicable, the right to have this data corrected or deleted. You can contact us at any time regarding this or any other questions relating to personal data.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time regarding this. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing instead of deletion.
If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR, a balancing of your interests and ours must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data may – apart from its storage – only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or of a Member State.

SSL or TLS Encryption

This website uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the website operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the browser address changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol in your browser.

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

Encrypted Payment Transactions on This Website

If, following the conclusion of a paid contract, you are required to provide us with your payment details (e.g. account number for direct debit), this data is required for payment processing.

Payment transactions using common payment methods (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are carried out exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the browser address changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol in your browser.

With encrypted communication, the payment details you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to Promotional Emails

The use of contact details published as part of our legal notice obligations for sending unsolicited advertising and information materials is hereby rejected. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited promotional information being sent, for example via spam emails.

Microsoft Advertising enables us to display advertisements in the Bing search engine or on third-party websites when users enter certain search terms on Bing (keyword targeting). Targeted advertisements can also be displayed based on user data available to Microsoft (e.g. location data and interests) (audience targeting). As the website operator, we can quantitatively evaluate this data, for example by analysing which search terms resulted in our advertisements being displayed and how many advertisements resulted in corresponding clicks.

We use Microsoft's Universal Event Tracking (UET) on this website. Pseudonymised data is collected to track which actions you take on our websites after clicking on an advertisement on Microsoft Advertising. UET collects your IP address (anonymised), device identifiers, information about device and browser settings, Microsoft Click ID (stored in a cookie), time spent on the website, which areas of the website were accessed, which advertisement brought you to the website and the keyword clicked.

The use of this service is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.

This website uses LinkedIn's Insight Tag. The provider of this service is LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.

Data Processing by LinkedIn Insight Tag

The LinkedIn Insight Tag provides us with information about visitors to our website. If a website visitor is registered with LinkedIn, we can analyse, among other things, professional details (e.g. career level, company size, country, location, industry and job title) of our website visitors and use this information to better target our website to the relevant target groups. We can also use the LinkedIn Insight Tag to measure whether visitors to our websites make a purchase or carry out another action (conversion measurement). Conversion measurement can also take place across devices (e.g. from PC to tablet). LinkedIn Insight Tag also offers a retargeting function that allows us to display targeted advertising to website visitors outside the website, whereby, according to LinkedIn, the advertising recipient is not identified.

LinkedIn itself also collects so-called log files (URL, referrer URL, IP address, device and browser characteristics and time of access). IP addresses are truncated or, if used to reach LinkedIn members across devices, hashed (pseudonymised). Direct identifiers of LinkedIn members are deleted by LinkedIn after seven days. The remaining pseudonymised data is then deleted within 180 days.

The data collected by LinkedIn cannot be attributed to specific individuals by us as the website operator. LinkedIn stores the personal data collected from website visitors on its servers in the USA and uses it for its own advertising purposes. Details can be found in LinkedIn's Privacy Policy at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy#choices-oblig.

Processing of Customer and Contract Data

We collect, process and use personal customer and contract data to establish, define the content of and amend our contractual relationships. We collect, process and use personal data concerning the use of this website (usage data) only to the extent necessary to enable the user to use the service or to charge the user for it. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.

The customer data collected will be deleted after completion of the order or termination of the business relationship and expiry of any applicable statutory retention periods. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Data Transfer upon Conclusion of a Contract for Online Shops, Merchants and Shipment of Goods

If you order goods from us, we pass your personal data on to the transport company commissioned with the delivery and to the payment service provider commissioned with processing the payment. Only data that the respective service provider requires to fulfil its task is disclosed. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures. If you have given corresponding consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR, we will pass your email address on to the transport company commissioned with the delivery so that it can inform you by email about the shipping status of your order; you may withdraw your consent at any time.

Credit Checks

In the case of payment by invoice or another payment method where we make an advance payment, we may carry out a credit check procedure (scoring). For this purpose, we transmit the data you have entered (e.g. name, address, age or bank details) to a credit agency. The probability of payment default is determined on the basis of this data. If the risk of payment default is too high, we may refuse the payment method concerned.

The credit check is carried out on the basis of contract performance (Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR) and to prevent payment defaults (legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). If consent has been obtained, the credit check is carried out on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR); consent may be withdrawn at any time.

Payment Services

We integrate payment services from third-party companies into our website. When you make a purchase from us, your payment details (e.g. name, payment amount, bank details, credit card number) are processed by the payment service provider for the purpose of processing the payment. The respective contractual and data protection provisions of the respective providers apply to these transactions. The payment service providers are used on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR (contract processing) and in the interest of a smooth, convenient and secure payment process (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). Where your consent is requested for certain actions, Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR is the legal basis for data processing; consent may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future.
