This privacy policy applies to the collection of personal data on this website and the subsequent processing of this data by us.

We process the data for the following purposes:

The legal basis for this data processing is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest follows from the purposes for data collection listed above. Under no circumstances do we use the data collected for the purpose of drawing conclusions about your person.

For questions of any kind, we offer you the opportunity to contact us via a form provided on the website. It is necessary to provide a valid e-mail address so that we know who sent the enquiry and can answer it. Further information can be provided voluntarily.

The personal data collected by us will be deleted after the purpose has been fulfilled, unless we are legally obliged to continue processing it. The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR.

We only pass on your personal data to other companies in the EOS Group or other recipients if:

• you have given your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or

We use cookies on our website. These are small files that your browser automatically creates and that are stored on your end device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website. Cookies do not cause any damage to your end device and do not contain any viruses, Trojans or other malware. Information is stored in the cookie that results in each case in connection with the specific end device used. However, this does not mean that we gain direct knowledge of your identity.

On the one hand, the use of cookies serves to make the use of our website 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 you leave our website. In addition, we also use temporary cookies to optimise user-friendliness, which are stored on your end device for a specified period of time. If you visit our website again to make use of our services, it is automatically recognised that you have already visited us and which entries and settings you have made so that you do not have to enter them again.

The cookies are divided into three categories: necessary, convenience, statistics and marketing:

The necessary cookies are required for the operation and basic function of our website. They enable the security-relevant functionality of this website. The data processed using cookies is required for the purposes mentioned to protect our legitimate interests or those of a third party in accordance with § 25 para. 2 TDDDG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

We use convenience cookies to make our website easier to use. If you visit our website again to use our services, it is automatically recognised that you have already visited us and which entries and settings you have made so that you do not have to enter them again.  The legal basis for this data processing is § 25 para. 1 s. 1 TDDDG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent).

We use statistics cookies to improve our offering and to ensure that our website is designed to meet requirements and is continuously optimised. For this purpose, we collect data for anonymised statistics and analyse, for example, visitor numbers, page view statistics and user behaviour to adapt and improve our content and the website experience. The legal basis for this data processing is Section 25 para. 1 s. 1 TDDDG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent).

We use marketing cookies to provide you with content that is relevant and of interest to you when you visit our website. For this purpose, we collect data for statistics and analyses, for example to determine visitor numbers and user behaviour and to adapt and improve our content and the website experience. The legal basis for this data processing is § 25 para. 1 s. 1 TDDDG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent).

The legal basis for this data processing is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

Siteimprove Analytics

This website uses Siteimprove Analytics for the purposes described under the category "Statistics". Siteimprove Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Siteimprove GmbH. The information is stored and processed by Siteimprove on servers in Denmark. IP addresses are completely anonymised before the data collected can be viewed by EOS via the Siteimprove Suite. It is not possible to reverse the anonymisation of IP addresses or to assign IP addresses to collected data. 

We use Shariff buttons from the social networks Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Xing on our website. The buttons are simple HTML links. We use the Shariff solution for this. With the Shariff solution, a script retrieves how often, for example, the share button on a page has been clicked: To do this, the script contacts the social network via the programming interfaces and retrieves the figures. Your personal data is not transmitted in this process. Instead of your IP address, only our server address is transmitted to Facebook and Twitter. You are only in direct contact with Facebook or Twitter when you become active. Before that, the social networks cannot collect any data about you. As long as you do not click on a link to share content, you remain invisible to the networks. If you click on the link, the obligation to provide information about data collection and processing no longer lies with us, but with the operator of the social network.

Links to videos from the provider YouTube (Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland) are integrated on our website. When you access a page on our website that contains such a video, a direct connection is established between your browser and the YouTube server after you have activated the video. YouTube then receives the information that you have visited our website with your IP address. If you click on the link to the video, your IP address will be forwarded to YouTube. We would like to point out that, as the provider of our website, we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by YouTube. Further information on this can be found in YouTube's privacy policy (https://www.youtube.com). 

You have the right:

• to request information about your personal data processed by us in accordance with Art. 15 GDPR;
• in accordance with Art. 16 GDPR, to immediately request the correction of incorrect or incomplete personal data stored by us;

• to request the deletion of your personal data stored by us in accordance with Art. 17 GDPR;
• to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data in accordance with Art. 18 GDPR;
• in accordance with Art. 20 GDPR, to receive your personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format or to request that it be transmitted to another controller;
• in accordance with Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR, to withdraw the consent previously granted to us at any time. The consequence of this is that we may no longer continue the data processing that was based on this consent in the future;
• to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR. As a rule, you can contact the supervisory authority of your place of residence or our company headquarters.

If your data is processed based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR.
If you wish to exercise your right to object, simply send an e-mail to datenschutz@eos-did.com with "EOS Deutscher Inkasso-Dienst GmbH – de.eos-solutions.com - Objection" in the subject line.

If your data is processed based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing in accordance with Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR. If you wish to exercise your right to withdraw your consent, you can do so at point 6.2.

We use the common SSL (Secure Socket Layer) method on this website in conjunction with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser. As a rule, this is 256-bit encryption. If your browser does not support 256-bit encryption, we use 128-bit v3 technology instead. You can recognise whether an individual website of our Internet presence 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 suitable 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.
