privacy policy

We are very pleased that you have shown interest in our company. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of Sir Robert B P. The use of the Sir Robert B P website is possible without any indication of personal data; however, if a data subject wants to use special enterprise services via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to Sir Robert B P. By means of this data protection declaration, our company would like to inform the general public of 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 data protection declaration.

As the controller, Sir Robert B P has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can 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, e.g. by telephone.

1. Definitions

The data protection declaration of Sir Robert B P is based on the terms used by the European legislator for directives and regulations when adopting the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration should 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 terms used in advance.

In this data protection declaration we use the following terms, among others:

a) personal data

Personal data is all information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter “data subject”). A natural person is considered identifiable if he or she 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 special characteristics that express the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

b) Data subject

A data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller.

c) Processing

Processing is any operation or set of operations which is carried out with or without the aid of automated procedures in connection with personal data, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or any other form of provision, comparison or linking, restriction, erasure or destruction.

d) Restriction of processing

Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting its future processing.

e) Profiling

Profiling is 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 performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.

f) Pseudonymisation

Pseudonymisation is 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 this 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 person responsible for processing

Controller or person responsible for processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing 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 nomination 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 other body to which personal data are disclosed, whether or not it is a third party. However, authorities which may receive personal data in the context of a particular investigation 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 other body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor and the persons authorised to process the personal data under the direct responsibility of the controller or processor.

k) Consent

Consent is any expression of will given voluntarily by the data subject for a specific case in an informed and unambiguous manner in the form of a statement or other unambiguous confirmatory act by which the data subject indicates that he or she agrees to the processing of personal data concerning him or her.

2. Name and address of the controller

3. Cookies

The Sir Robert B P website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are placed and saved on a computer system via an Internet browser.

Numerous websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier for the cookie. It consists of a character string that allows websites and servers to be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was saved. This enables the websites and servers visited to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified using the unique cookie ID.

By using cookies, Sir Robert B P can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

Cookies can be used to optimize the information and offers on our website for the benefit of the user. As already mentioned, cookies enable us to recognize 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 their access data every time they visit the website because this is done 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 using a cookie.

The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of a corresponding setting in the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time using 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.

4. Collection of general data and information

The Sir Robert B P website 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 is stored in the server’s log files. The following may be recorded: (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 referrers), (4) the sub-websites that are 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 that serve to avert dangers in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using this general data and information, Sir Robert B P does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is required to (1) correctly deliver the contents of our website, (2) optimize the contents of our website and the advertising for it, (3) ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. This anonymously collected data and information is therefore evaluated by Sir Robert B P both statistically and with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our enterprise in order to ultimately ensure 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.

3. Cookies

The Sir Robert B P website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are placed and saved on a computer system via an Internet browser.

By using cookies, Sir Robert B P can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

9. Rights of the data subject

a) Right to confirmation

Every data subject has the right granted by the European legislator to obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether or not personal data concerning him or her are being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of confirmation, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time.

b) Right to information

Every data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to obtain information about the personal data concerning him or her stored at any time from the controller free of charge and a copy of this information. Furthermore, the European legislator has granted the data subject the right to obtain information about the following:

the purposes of the processing
the categories of personal data being processed
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 planned period for which the personal data will be stored, or, if not possible, the criteria used to determine that period
the existence of a right to request from the controller rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing of the personal data concerning the data subject or to object to such processing
the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
if the personal data are not collected from the data subject: all available information as to their origin
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 as to the logic involved, as well as the scope and envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject

Furthermore, the data subject has the right to obtain information as to whether personal data has been transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. If this is the case, the data subject also has the right to obtain information about the appropriate guarantees relating to the transfer.

If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of information, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time.

c) Right to rectification

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to request the immediate rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him or her. Furthermore, the data subject has the right, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to request the completion of incomplete personal data – also by means of a supplementary statement.

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

d) Right to erasure (right to be forgotten)

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to request the controller to erase personal data concerning him or her without undue delay, provided that one of the following reasons applies and processing is not necessary:

The personal data were collected or otherwise processed for such purposes for which they are no longer necessary.

The data subject withdraws his or her consent on which the processing was based according to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.

The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (2) GDPR.

The personal data were processed unlawfully.

The deletion of the personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.

The personal data were collected in relation to information society services offered in accordance with Art. 8 (1) GDPR.

If one of the above reasons applies and a data subject wishes to request the deletion of personal data stored by Sir Robert B P, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time. The employee of Sir Robert B P will ensure that the deletion request is complied with immediately.

If the personal data was made public by Sir Robert B P and our company as the controller pursuant to Art. 17 Para. 1 GDPR is obliged to erase the personal data, Sir Robert B P shall take appropriate measures, including technical ones, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, in order to inform other data controllers which process the published personal data that the data subject has requested the erasure by such controllers of all links to these personal data or of copies or replications of these personal data, unless processing is required. The employee of Sir Robert B P will arrange the necessary measures in individual cases.

e) Right to restriction of processing

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to request the controller to restrict processing if one of the following conditions applies:

The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.

The processing is unlawful, the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests the restriction of the use of the personal data instead.

The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but the data subject needs them to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

The data subject has objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate reasons of the controller outweigh those of the data subject.

If one of the aforementioned conditions is met, and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of the processing of personal data stored by Sir Robert B P, he or she may at any time contact any employee of the controller. The employee of Sir Robert B P will arrange the restriction of the processing.

f) Right to data portability

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which was made available to a controller, in a structured, common and machine-readable format. He or she also has the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data was made available, provided that the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR and the processing is carried out by automated means, unless the processing is 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, in exercising his or her right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 (1) GDPR, the data subject has 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 contact an employee of Sir Robert B P at any time.

g) Right to object

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning him or her based on Art. 6 (1) e or f GDPR, for reasons related to his or her particular situation. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

In the event of an objection, Sir Robert B P will 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 to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

If Sir Robert B P processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to processing of personal data for the purpose of such advertising. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to Sir Robert B P to processing for direct marketing purposes, Sir Robert B P will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.

In addition, the data subject has the right to object to processing of personal data concerning him or her by Sir Robert B P for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89(1) GDPR, unless the processing is necessary to perform a task carried out for reasons of public interest, for reasons related to his or her particular situation.

To exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact any employee of Sir Robert B P or another employee directly. In addition, the data subject is free in the context of the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to exercise his or her right of objection by automated means using technical specifications.

h) Automated decisions in individual cases, including profiling

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator not to be subjected to a decision based solely on automated processing – including profiling – which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her, 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 permitted by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which contains appropriate measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is made with the data subject’s explicit consent.

Where the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is made with the data subject’s explicit consent, Sir Robert B P shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and contest the decision.

If the data subject wishes to exercise rights concerning automated decision-making, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.

i) Right to withdraw consent under data protection law

Any data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to withdraw consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

If the data subject wishes to exercise his or her right to withdraw consent, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.

10. Data protection for applications and in the application process

The controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of processing the application process. Processing can also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant sends the relevant application documents to the controller electronically, for example by email or via a web form on the website. If the controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data is stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions. If the controller does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents are automatically deleted two months after the rejection decision is announced, provided that there are no other legitimate interests of the controller that conflict with deletion. Other legitimate interests in this sense include, for example, a burden of proof in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

11. Legal basis for processing

Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for our company for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of any other service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, such as to fulfill tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third parties. In that case, the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR.

Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases if the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they were specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it 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).

12. Legitimate interests in the processing pursued by the controller or a third party

If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. 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.

13. Duration for which the personal data is stored

The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiry of the period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted unless it is no longer required to fulfill or initiate a contract.

14. Legal or contractual provisions for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision

We would like to inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information on the contractual partner).

Sometimes it may be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data in order to conclude a contract, which we must subsequently process. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with him or her. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded.

Before the data subject provides personal data, the data subject must contact one of our employees. Our employee will explain to the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data, and what the consequences of not providing the personal data would be.

15. This website uses the open source web analysis service Matomo.
With the help of Matomo, we are able to collect and analyze data on the use of our website by website visitors. This enables us to find out, among other things, when which page views were made and which region they come from. We also record various log files (e.g. IP address, referrer, browsers and operating systems used) and can measure whether our website visitors carry out certain actions (e.g. clicks, purchases, etc.).
The use of this analysis tool is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising. If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR and Section 25 Para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. The consent can be revoked at any time.

IP anonymization
When analyzing with Matomo, we use IP anonymization. Your IP address is shortened before the analysis so that it can no longer be clearly assigned to you.

Cookieless analysis
We have configured Matomo so that Matomo does not store cookies in your browser.

We host Matomo with the following third-party provider:
CS Webservice Inh. Christoph Schreyer
Marienthaler Str. 17
24340 Eckernförde
Contract processing

We have concluded a contract for order processing (AVV) with the above-mentioned provider. This is a contract required by data protection law that ensures that the personal data of our website visitors is only processed in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

Users can object to the anonymized data collection by the Matomo program at any time with effect for the future by clicking on the link below. In this case, a so-called opt-out cookie is stored in their browser, which means that Matomo no longer collects any session data. However, if users delete their cookies, this also means that the opt-out cookie is deleted and therefore has to be reactivated by the users. The logs with the user data are deleted after 6 months at the latest. If you instruct your browser to send a DoNoTrack, your data will not be saved automatically.

16. Existence of automated decision-making

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