Privacy Policy
Data protection
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
Data protection is a fundamental right, which is why FABES Forschungs-GmbH would like to inform you in detail about the handling of personal data. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally.
This data protection declaration informs customers to what extent and for what purpose personal data is collected and processed.
Data collection and processing for accesses from the Internet
For downloads in the separate software download area of FABES Forschungs-GmbH, the following personal data about access to the server is stored:
- User name of the logged-in user;
- Host name of the accessing computer (IP address);
- Date and time of the server enquiry.
When accessing the pages accessible without logging in, only data required for the correct display of the content (e.g. the language selected by the user) is collected.
In the interests of data protection, we do not use tracking tools, automated decision-making or profiling.
When you access our website, the device you use to access the page automatically transmits log files (connection data) to the server. These log files contain the IP address of the device, the type of browser, the website you visited previously, your system configuration and the date and time. The storage of IP addresses in log files serves to detect and defend against attacks and takes place for a maximum of 9 weeks.
Data collection and processing for orders
If you order analyses or other goods (e.g. by online form via this website, e‑mail or mail), the address data provided will only be used for the purpose of processing the order or for customer surveys. In addition, in certain cases it is necessary to mention your company name to your suppliers in order to obtain specific recipe information on your samples. This information is then required for the preparation of a specific offer.
The address data is stored in the customer database of FABES Forschungs-GmbH. You can revoke your automatic consent to the storage and the aforementioned use of your personal data at any time by telephone, e‑mail, fax or post.
Use of the data
In the case of access from the Internet, the automatically stored data is not used for analyses.
In the case of orders, the data is only used for the purpose of fulfilling and processing the order and for customer surveys that are necessary for quality assurance as part of accreditation. Participation is voluntary.
In addition, in certain cases it is necessary to provide your company name to your suppliers in order to obtain specific recipe information about your samples. This information is then required for the preparation of a specific offer.
Right to information/ correction/ deletion/ restriction/ cancellation
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain information free of charge from the operator of the website (see section “Responsible body”) as to whether and which personal data is stored and to obtain information about the origin, recipient and purpose of your stored personal data.
You can revoke your automatic consent to the storage and aforementioned use of your personal data associated with the order (see above) at any time by telephone, e‑mail, fax or post.
You are also entitled to have incorrect data corrected, deleted or processing restricted at any time. The cancellation, correction or deletion of personal data is only possible if there is no legal obligation to retain data.
The use of the rights mentioned here by means of an informal request is free of charge and does not require any reasons to be given.
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
In the event of breaches of data protection law, the data subject has the right to complain to the competent supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority for data protection issues is the state data protection officer of the federal state in which our company is based (Bavaria). A list of data protection officers and their contact details can be found at the following link: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html.
Right to data portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
SSL and TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Cookies
So-called “cookies” are used on the FABES Forschungs-GmbH website. These are text files that are stored on your computer in order to optimise the provision of content. No personal data is stored in cookies.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser.
If your browser does not accept cookies, this can lead to functional restrictions of the FABES offers.
Links to websites of other providers
The website of FABES Forschungs-GmbH contains links to websites of third-party providers/hyperlinks. If you access these, the external provider may receive information from your browser as to which page you came from. The external provider is responsible for this data. We, like any other provider, are not in a position to influence this process. FABES Forschungs-GmbH would like to point out that this data protection declaration applies exclusively to the FABES website.
Inclusion, validity and up-to-dateness of the privacy policy
