Data Protection

We welcome you to visit our website and to be interested in our products and services. The protection of personal data is a matter of deep concern to us. Below, we will tell you what information we collect when you visit our website and how we use it, so that you can feel confident that you can visit our website.

 

 

1. Personal data

Personal data is personal information about the personal or objective situation of an identified or identifiable natural person. These include, for example, your real name, mailing address, phone number, job title, and company. Information that cannot be directly linked to your identity – for example, the number of users of a page – is not personal data.

 

2. General data collected when visiting our website

If you use our website for informational purposes, i.e. you have not registered or informed us of any other information, we also only collect personal data (so-called server log files) that your browser transmits to our servers. This information includes IP address, the type and version of the web browser used, your computer's operating system, the websites you have visited, and the time of your inquiry. Server log files are technically necessary for your access to our website and for ensuring its stability and security (the legal basis for this benefit is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f GDPR). This is not a special feature of our website. The information collected in this way is used statistically.

 

3. Collection and processing of personal data

You may be asked to indicate personal information. Responses to these questions are voluntary. The personal data you provide is used only for the purpose of your personal inquiry and is generally used to respond to your inquiry. In addition, the personal data you provide will not be stored or disseminated for any other purpose.

We guarantee that your data is processed confidentially and in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations. If we want to make an offer on our website for an individual offer, e.g. on our job platform, we use external service providers, we do so with the utmost care in terms of data protection and fulfill our obligations in accordance with the respective regulations. The type and scope of data processing tasks are regulated by the treaty, and the commissioned service providers are subject to the same level of data protection obligations as us.

 

4. Rights of the person concerned

In the case of processing of your data, you have the right to request information pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR, the right to rectification pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR, the right to erasure pursuant to Art. 17 GDPR, the restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR, the right to object pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR and the right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR. Comments on the right to access and the right to erasure are reserved pursuant to Articles 34 and 35 of the Federal Data Protection Act. In addition, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR and Art. 19 Federal Data Protection Act).

 

5. Get in touch by email or contact form

You contact us by e-mail or via the contact form and the data you provide (your e-mail address, if necessary, your name and telephone number) are stored by us and used to respond to your inquiry. The processing of the data provided when sending these inquiries is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f (GDPR) (our legitimate interests as controller). If the purpose of the inquiry is to conclude a contract or to execute an existing contract, the processing of the data is also subject to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR (performance of a contract). If we also ask for information through our contact form that is not used to establish contact, we will mark it as optional. This data is used to materialize your inquiry and to better fulfill your request. Whether or not to communicate optional information is voluntary. Your personal data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose of the survey. In addition, you can object to the processing of your data at any time. In this case, all personal data stored at the time of establishment of the contact will be deleted, unless the statutory retention period must be met. In addition, there are restrictions on processing.

 

6. Application

You can apply to us electronically. Your data will of course only be used for the purpose of processing your application and will not be passed on to third parties. Please note that unencrypted emails are transmitted without access protection.

In addition, we provide our application platform for you to use. In this case, your online application will be forwarded directly to our HR department via an encrypted connection and will of course be processed confidentially.

In the Applicant Tool, you can fill in your personal data and characteristics. In order to send the application smoothly, some data is necessary. This data includes, for example, first name, last name, mailing address. This data is marked as mandatory. In addition, you can voluntarily fill in other data and provide documents such as resumes, certificates, official letters, etc. Please note that these files may contain sensitive data (race and ethnicity, political affiliations, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, health or sex life). If you have transmitted the corresponding data, you declare your consent to its processing.

If the application is submitted by post or e-mail, the data can be collected and entered into the tool by the HR department.

Further information on the processing of data during the application process can be found in the data protection declaration of our application platform.

In the event that you have not expressly informed us that we can store your data on a long-term basis or that a treaty has been concluded, your personal data will be deleted at the latest after the end of the application process. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 a, b and f of the GDPR and Art. 26 of the Federal Data Protection Act.

 

7. Newsletters

In accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, if you have consented, you can subscribe to our newsletter where you can find out about our latest offers. When applying for our newsletter, we use the so-called two-way confirmation method. i.e. after your application we send an e-mail to the e-mail address you have given to confirm that you would like to receive the newsletter. If your application is not confirmed within [24 hours], your information is frozen and automatically deleted after one month.

 

The information required to send the newsletter is your name, first name, job title, country, and email address. The specification of additional, individually labeled data is voluntary and will be used for individual settlement. Once confirmed, we will save your email address for the purpose of sending you the newsletter. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 GDPR. In addition, we save every registration and confirmation. The purpose of the procedure is to prove your registration and, if necessary, to clarify possible misuse of your personal data.

You can revoke your consent to the sending of the newsletter and unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time. The revocation can be explained by clicking on the link provided in each Briefing email or by emailing to info(at)ukect.com.

 

8. The direct advertising license complies with Article 7, Paragraph 3 of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law

E-mail addresses collected through purchases of goods or services on our website may be used by us to directly advertise ourselves and similar products and services. If you do not want to receive direct advertising, you can object to the use of your e-mail address at any time. For this purpose, a corresponding link is included in each newsletter.

 

9. Data Transfer

In principle, your data may not be transferred to third parties, unless we have a legal obligation to do so, or the transfer is necessary for the execution of a contractual relationship or you have given your prior express consent to the transfer of your data.

External service providers and partner companies, such as online payment providers or freight forwarders entrusted with shipments, will only have access to your data if they need to process your booking. In this case, the transmitted data is limited to the minimum required. As soon as our service providers have access to your personal data, we are required to ensure that they comply with the provisions of data protection law in the same way as in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR during the processing of the order. Please also note the data protection notice of the provider. The respective service provider is responsible for the content of the external service, and we will also check whether the service complies with legal requirements based on reasonableness.

We value the processing of your data within the EU/EEA. However, it may also be possible that the service providers we use process data outside the EU/EEA context. In this case, we ensure that an appropriate level of data protection is established with the recipient before transferring your personal data. This means that a level of data protection equivalent to the standard within the EU can be achieved through an EU standard contract or an adaptation decision such as the EU Privacy Shield.

In order to comply with our contractual and statutory obligations, your personal data is disclosed to different public or internal locations, as well as to external service providers.

We work with selected external service providers to fulfil our contractual and statutory obligations:

- IT service providers (e.g. maintenance service providers, hosting service providers)
- Document and data destruction service providers
- Printing service providers
- Telecommunications
- Payment service providers
- Consulting and consulting
- Marketing or sales service providers
- Inquiries
- Appointed Agent

Public Authorities:

In addition, we are obliged to transfer your personal data to other recipients, such as official authorities, due to our statutory reporting obligations.

- customs
- social insurance department

 

 

10. Web Analytics

In order to analyze and optimize our web pages, we use a variety of services listed below. This allows us to analyze, for example, how many users visit our website, which information is the most popular and how users find offers. In addition, we collect data on the number of people who jump from one page to another (so-called referrers), which subpages of the page are visited and how often and for how long they stay on a particular page. This helps us to organize and improve our services in a way that is close to our users. The data collected will not be used to privately identify individual users. The data collection is anonymous or, at best, pseudonymized. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

11. Safety

We have implemented a number of technical and business safeguards to protect your data from accidental or deliberate manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized persons. So your data is kept in a secure corporate environment that is not accessible to the public. In addition, our safety procedures are regularly monitored and continuously adapted in line with technological developments. If you would like to contact us by e-mail, we would like to stress once again that the confidentiality of the transmitted information cannot be guaranteed. Unencrypted email content can be viewed by third parties. Therefore, we recommend that confidential information only be sent by post or encryption.

 

12. Changes to the Data Protection Declaration

We reserve the right to change or adjust the data protection declaration at any time in accordance with the current data protection provisions.
