Data processing at VERMOP GmbH

The fair handling of your personal data is a special concern of the management of VERMOP GmbH. Data protection is therefore a top priority for us.

In our data protection information, you will learn below how we process personal data in principle and in particular on our websites. We also inform you about your rights under data protection laws.

Personal data is always and exclusively collected in our company on the basis of a relevant legal basis, such as your consent, a contract with you or legal requirements. When collecting data within the scope of the so-called legitimate interest, we apply the highest standards in weighing economic/corporate interests and the fundamental rights and freedoms of the respective data subjects.

The processing of data is always carried out in accordance with the principle of good faith, i.e. we always inform you properly and comprehensively about the conditions and scope of the use of your data – and this in a transparent and comprehensible form.

It is a matter of course for us that we only use data for previously determined purposes and also only store as much and as long as necessary or legally required.

We also regard the technical and organizational protection and security of your data, the guarantee of confidentiality, integrity and availability as core elements of our responsibility.

Apart from that, we do not sell any data. Our web offer is not financed by advertising. We use cookies and other tracking techniques exclusively to analyze the use of our website and to enable and optimize the presentation of content – and if necessary, only with your consent.

At datenschutz@vermop.de, we grant you information about your data processed by us at any time, as well as the possibility to correct, delete and object to the processing.  Likewise, you have the right to data transfer and the right to address any complaints to the data protection supervisory authority responsible for us (Bayerisches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht, Promenade 18, D-91522 Ansbach) or any other supervisory authority in the European Union.

With this in mind, we hope you enjoy your visit to our website and find it informative.

3. Detailed information about data processing

3.1. Provision of the website

3.1.0. Description and scope of data processing

Each time you visit our website, our system, i.e. the web server, automatically collects information from the system of your calling computer or terminal.

The following data is collected by us in this process:

  • Information about the browser type and the version used
  • the operating system of the user’s terminal device
  • the Internet service provider of the user
  • the IP address of the user
  • date and time of access
  • the previous website from which you accessed our website (referrer URL)

3.1.1. Purpose of data processing

The temporary storage of your IP address by our system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to your device. For this purpose, the user’s IP address must necessarily remain stored for the duration of the session. The storage of the above data in so-called log files is done to ensure the functionality of our website. In addition, we use this data to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems (e.g. for attack detection). An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.

3.1.2.  Legal basis

The legal basis for the temporary storage of this data and the log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR (legitimate interests of us as a website operator in the secure, trouble-free and legally compliant provision of the website).

3.1.3. Duration of storage

The above-mentioned data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.

In the case of storage of data in log files, this is the case after 7 days at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP address of the user is deleted or alienated by us, so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible and the data contained no longer have any personal reference.

3.2. E-mail contact and contact form

3.2.0. Description and scope of data processing

We can be contacted via our contact form and the e-mail address provided. In this case, your personal data transmitted with the enquiry (in any case your name and your e-mail address) as well as your message and, if applicable, the corresponding subject will be stored.

3.2.1. Purpose of the processing

The processing of this personal data serves us to process the contact and your request.

3.2.2. Legal basis

The legal basis for the processing of this data, which is transmitted in the course of sending an enquiry, is Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR (legitimate interest of us as the responsible party in communicating with the users of our website). If the request is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR (fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures for this).

3.2.3. Duration of storage

The above-mentioned data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. For personal data sent by e-mail or the contact form, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is terminated when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the relevant facts have been conclusively clarified and no contractual relationship results from it.

3.2.4. Possibility of objection

You have the possibility to object to the data processing at any time. The objection should be sent to the following address: datenschutz@vermop.de

All personal data stored in the course of contacting us will be deleted in this case, unless there are legal retention periods or other legal reasons to the contrary.

We use the function ‘anonymizeIP’ (so-called IP masking): Due to the activation of IP anonymisation on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

During your visit to the website, the following data is collected, among other things:

  • Your internet service provider
  • The referrer URL (via which website/advertising medium you came to this website)

On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your anonymous use of the website and compiling reports on website activity. The reports provided by Google Analytics are used to analyse the performance of our website.

Your data will only be made available within our company to persons who are involved in the decision-making process. If your application is successful, the data you submit will be stored in our data processing systems. If we are unable to make you a job offer, you reject it, withdraw your application or, if applicable, revoke your consent to data processing, we will retain the data you have provided for a maximum of 6 months after the application process has been completed and then delete it. Should we wish to keep your data longer, we would obtain your consent for this.
