Privacy Policy

We are very pleased about your interest in our company. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of PVP Triptis GmbH. The use of the website of PVP Triptis GmbH is generally possible without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to make use of special services provided by our company via our website, the processing of personal data may become necessary. Where the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the data subject’s consent.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in compliance with the country-specific data protection provisions applicable to PVP Triptis GmbH. By means of this Privacy Policy, our company would like to inform the public about the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed of their rights by means of this Privacy Policy.

As the controller, PVP Triptis GmbH has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible of personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, internet-based data transmissions may in principle have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us via alternative means, for example by telephone.

The data protection declaration of PVP Triptis GmbH is based on the terms used by the European legislator when adopting the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration is intended to be easy to read and understand for the public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terminology used in advance.

In this data protection declaration, we use, inter alia, the following terms:

a) Personal data
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as the “data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

b) Data subject
Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data are processed by the controller.

c) Processing
Processing means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

d) Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.

e) Profiling
Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s work performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.

f) Pseudonymisation
Pseudonymisation means the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

g) Controller or controller responsible for processing
Controller or controller responsible for processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its designation may be provided for by Union or Member State law.

h) Processor
Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

i) Recipient
Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients.

j) Third party
Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal data.

k) Consent
Consent of the data subject is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

Controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation, other data protection laws applicable in the Member States of the European Union and other provisions of a data protection nature is:

The internet pages of PVP Triptis GmbH use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on a computer system via an internet browser.

Many internet pages and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters through which internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables visited internet pages and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific internet browser can be recognised and identified using the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, PVP Triptis GmbH can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the setting of cookies.

By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimised in the interests of the user. Cookies enable us, as previously mentioned, to recognise users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For example, the user of a website that uses cookies does not have to enter access data again each time the website is visited, because this is handled by the website and the cookie stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online shop. The online shop remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.

The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies by our website by means of a corresponding setting in the internet browser used and may thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via an internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.

The website of PVP Triptis GmbH collects a series of general data and information each time the website is accessed by a data subject or an automated system. This general data and information are stored in the server log files. The following may be collected: (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrer), (4) the subpages accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Internet Protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) other similar data and information used for security purposes in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using these general data and information, PVP Triptis GmbH does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is required in order to (1) correctly deliver the contents of our website, (2) optimise the contents of our website as well as the advertising for it, (3) ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack.
Therefore, these anonymously collected data and information are evaluated by PVP Triptis GmbH both statistically and with the aim of increasing data protection and data security within our company, ultimately ensuring an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.
 

The website of PVP Triptis GmbH contains information required by law that enables a rapid electronic contact with our company as well as direct communication with us, including a general address for so-called electronic mail (email address). If a data subject contacts the controller by email or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject are automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the controller are stored for the purpose of processing the request or contacting the data subject. These personal data will not be passed on to third parties.

The controller processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or insofar as this is provided for by the European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.

If the purpose of storage no longer applies, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another competent legislator expires, the personal data will be routinely restricted or erased in accordance with the statutory provisions.

a) Right to confirmation
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning them are being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of confirmation, they may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.

b) Right of access
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller, at any time and free of charge, information about the personal data stored concerning them and a copy of such information. Furthermore, the European legislator has granted the data subject access to the following information:

- the purposes of the processing
- the categories of personal data concerned
- the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organisations where possible, the envisaged period for which the personal data will be stored, or, if not possible, the criteria used to determine that period
- the existence of the right to request rectification or erasure of personal data, or restriction of processing by the controller, or to object to such processing
- the existence of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority where the personal data are not collected from the data subject: any available information as to their source
- the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, referred to in Article 22(1) and (4) GDPR and, at least in those cases, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject

Furthermore, the data subject shall have the right to obtain information as to whether personal data are transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. Where this is the case, the data subject shall have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer.

If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of access, they may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.

c) Right to rectification
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain, without undue delay, the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning them. Furthermore, the data subject shall have the right, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to have incomplete personal data completed — including by means of providing a supplementary statement.

If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to rectification, they may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.

d) Right to erasure (right to be forgotten)
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning them without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies, as long as the processing is not necessary:

- the personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed
- the data subject withdraws consent on which the processing is based according to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR, and where there is no other legal ground for the processing
- the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR
- the personal data have been unlawfully processed
- the personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject
- the personal data have been collected in relation to the offer of information society services referred to in Article 8(1) GDPR

If one of the above-mentioned grounds applies and a data subject wishes to request the erasure of personal data stored by PVP Triptis GmbH, they may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller. An employee of PVP Triptis GmbH shall ensure that the erasure request is complied with without undue delay.

Where PVP Triptis GmbH has made personal data public and is obliged pursuant to Article 17(1) GDPR to erase the personal data, PVP Triptis GmbH shall, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform other controllers processing the published personal data that the data subject has requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copies or replications of, those personal data, insofar as processing is not required. An employee of PVP Triptis GmbH shall take the necessary measures in individual cases.

e) Right to restriction of processing
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller restriction of processing where one of the following applies:

- the accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy
- the processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure and requests restriction instead
- the controller no longer needs the personal data, but they are required by the data subject for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims
- the data subject has objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR pending verification whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the data subject

If one of the above conditions is met and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by PVP Triptis GmbH, they may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller. An employee of PVP Triptis GmbH shall arrange the restriction of processing.

f) Right to data portability
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European legislator to receive the personal data concerning them, which have been provided by the data subject to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. They shall also have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided, where the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, provided that the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Furthermore, when exercising their right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) GDPR, the data subject shall have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and provided that this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

To assert the right to data portability, the data subject may, at any time, contact any employee of PVP Triptis GmbH.

g) Right to object
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European legislator to object, on grounds relating to their particular situation, at any time, to processing of personal data concerning them which is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on those provisions.

In the event of an objection, PVP Triptis GmbH shall no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Where PVP Triptis GmbH processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning them for such marketing. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to PVP Triptis GmbH to the processing for direct marketing purposes, PVP Triptis GmbH will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.

In addition, the data subject shall have the right, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to object to processing of personal data concerning them by PVP Triptis GmbH for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.

To exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact any employee of PVP Triptis GmbH or any other employee directly. In addition, in the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, the data subject shall be free to exercise their right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

h) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European legislator not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing — including profiling — which produces legal effects concerning them, or similarly significantly affects them, unless the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down appropriate measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is based on the data subject’s explicit consent.

If the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is based on the data subject’s explicit consent, PVP Triptis GmbH shall implement appropriate measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express their point of view, and to contest the decision.

If a data subject wishes to exercise rights relating to automated individual decision-making, they may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.

i) Right to withdraw data protection consent
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data shall have the right granted by the European legislator to withdraw their consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

If a data subject wishes to exercise their right to withdraw consent, they may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.

The controller has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymisation function) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics is the collection, gathering and analysis of data about the behaviour of visitors to websites. A web analytics service collects, among other things, data on the website from which a data subject has accessed a website (so-called referrers), which subpages were accessed, or how often and for what duration a subpage was viewed. Web analytics is mainly used to optimise a website and to carry out a cost-benefit analysis of internet advertising.

The operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

The controller uses the addition “_gat._anonymizeIp” for web analytics via Google Analytics. By means of this addition, the IP address of the internet connection of the data subject is shortened and anonymised by Google if access to our website is made from a Member State of the European Union or from another contracting state of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyse the flow of visitors on our website. Google uses the data and information collected, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us showing the activities on our website, and to provide further services related to the use of our website.

Google Analytics places a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Google is enabled to analyse the use of our website. With each call-up of one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, the internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Google Analytics component to transmit data for the purpose of online analysis to Google. In the course of this technical procedure, Google gains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which serves Google, inter alia, to trace the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently enable commission settlements.

By means of the cookie, personal information, such as the access time, the location from which access was made, and the frequency of visits to our website by the data subject, is stored. With each visit to our website, these personal data, including the IP address of the internet connection used by the data subject, are transmitted to Google in the United States of America. These personal data are stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may transfer these personal data collected through the technical procedure to third parties.

The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding setting of the internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the internet browser used would also prevent Google from placing a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, cookies already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via an internet browser or other software programs.

Furthermore, the data subject has the possibility to object to the collection of data generated by Google Analytics relating to the use of this website, as well as to the processing of this data by Google, and to prevent such processing. For this purpose, the data subject must download and install a browser add-on under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. This browser add-on informs Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data and information about visits to websites may be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is regarded by Google as an objection. If the information technology system of the data subject is later deleted, formatted or newly installed, the data subject must reinstall the browser add-on in order to deactivate Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the data subject or by another person attributable to their sphere of influence, it is possible to reinstall or reactivate the browser add-on.

Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of Google may be retrieved under https://www.google.de/intl/en/policies/privacy/ and under http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/en.html. Google Analytics is explained in more detail under the following link: https://www.google.com/intl/en/analytics/.

Article 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of any other service or consideration, the processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of enquiries regarding our products or services.

Where our company is subject to a legal obligation requiring the processing of personal data, such as for the fulfilment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.

In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured at our premises and their name, age, health insurance details or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third parties. In this case, the processing would be based on Article 6(1)(d) GDPR.

Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. This legal basis applies to processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases, if the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject.

Such processing operations are permitted in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, the legislator took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47 sentence 2 GDPR).

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest is the conduct of our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and our shareholders.

The criterion used to determine the period for which personal data are stored is the respective statutory retention period. After the expiry of that period, the corresponding data are routinely erased, provided that they are no longer required for the fulfilment of a contract or the initiation of a contract.

necessity for the conclusion of a contract; obligation of the data subject to provide personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data

We inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may also arise from contractual provisions (e.g. information relating to the contractual partner). In some cases, it may be necessary for the conclusion of a contract that a data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data if our company enters into a contract with them. Failure to provide personal data would result in the contract not being concluded with the data subject.

Prior to the provision of personal data by the data subject, the data subject may contact one of our employees. Our employee will clarify on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract, or is necessary for the conclusion of a contract, whether there is an obligation to provide personal data, and what consequences the failure to provide personal data would have.

As a responsible company, we do not use automated decision-making or profiling.

This Privacy Policy is currently valid and was last updated in February 2026.

Due to the further development of our website and the services offered via it, or due to changes in legal or regulatory requirements, it may become necessary to amend this Privacy Policy. The current version of the Privacy Policy can be accessed and printed at any time on the website at www.pvp-gummi.de/datenschutz.
