3. General information and mandatory information

Data protection

The operators of this website and its pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. Hence, we handle your personal data as confidential information and  in compliance with the statutory data protection regulations and this Data Protection Declaration.  

Whenever you use this website, a variety of personal information will be collected.  Personal data comprises data that can be used to personally identify you. This Data Protection Declaration explains which data we collect as well as the purposes we use this data for. It also explains how, and for which purpose the information is collected.  

We herewith advise you that the transmission of data via the Internet (i.e., through e mail communications) may be prone to security gaps. It is not possible to completely  protect data against third-party access. 

Information about the responsible party (referred to as the “controller” in the GDPR)

The data processing controller on this website is:  

TYPO3 GmbH  
Emanuel-Leutze-Str. 11  
40547 Düsseldorf  
Germany

Phone: +49 211 205436-0  
Email: info@typo3.com

The controller is the natural person or legal entity that single-handedly or jointly with  others makes decisions as to the purposes of and resources for the processing of  personal data (e.g., names, e-mail addresses, etc.). 

Storage duration

Unless a more specific storage period has been specified in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for which it was collected no longer applies. If you assert a justified request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted, unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, the deletion will take place after these reasons cease to apply. 

Designation of a data protection officer

We have appointed a data protection officer for our company.

Information on data transfer to the USA and other non-EU countries

Among other things, we use tools of companies domiciled in the United States or other from a data protection perspective non-secure non-EU countries. If these tools are active, your personal data may potentially be transferred to these non-EU  countries and may be processed there. We must point out that in these countries, a data protection level that is comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed. For instance, U.S. enterprises are under a mandate to release personal data to the  security agencies and you as the data subject do not have any litigation options to defend yourself in court. Hence, it cannot be ruled out that U.S. agencies (e.g., the  Secret Service) may process, analyze, and permanently archive your personal data  for surveillance purposes. We have no control over these processing activities.  

Revocation of your consent to the processing of data

A wide range of data processing transactions are possible only subject to your express consent. You can also revoke at any time any consent you have already given us. This shall be without prejudice to the lawfulness of any data collection that  occurred prior to your revocation.  

Right to object to the collection of data in special cases; right to object to direct advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)

IN THE EVENT THAT DATA ARE PROCESSED ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E)  OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO AT ANY TIME OBJECT TO THE  PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA BASED ON GROUNDS ARISING  FROM YOUR UNIQUE SITUATION. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO ANY PROFILING  BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. TO DETERMINE THE LEGAL BASIS, ON  WHICH ANY PROCESSING OF DATA IS BASED, PLEASE CONSULT THIS DATA  PROTECTION DECLARATION. IF YOU LOG AN OBJECTION, WE WILL NO  LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA, UNLESS WE ARE IN A  POSITION TO PRESENT COMPELLING PROTECTION WORTHY GROUNDS FOR  THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DATA, THAT OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS,  RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR IF THE PURPOSE OF THE PROCESSING IS THE  CLAIMING, EXERCISING OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL ENTITLEMENTS (OBJECTION  PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).  

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS BEING PROCESSED IN ORDER TO ENGAGE IN  DIRECT ADVERTISING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE  PROCESSING OF YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSES  OF SUCH ADVERTISING AT ANY TIME. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO  THE EXTENT THAT IT IS AFFILIATED WITH SUCH DIRECT ADVERTISING. IF  YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE  USED FOR DIRECT ADVERTISING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO  ART. 21(2) GDPR). 

Right to log a complaint with the competent supervisory agency

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects are entitled to log a complaint  with a supervisory agency, in particular in the member state where they usually maintain their domicile, place of work or at the place where the alleged violation occurred. The right to log a complaint is in effect regardless of any other administrative or court proceedings available as legal recourses.

Right to data portability

You have the right to demand that we hand over any data we automatically process on the basis of your consent or in order to fulfil a contract be handed over to you or a third party in a commonly used, machine readable format. If you should demand the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will be done only if it is technically  feasible.  

SSL and/or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as purchase orders or inquiries you submit to us as the website operator, this website uses either an SSL or a TLS encryption program. You can recognize an encrypted connection by checking whether the address line of the browser switches from “http://” to “https://” and also by the appearance of the lock icon in the browser line.  

If the SSL or TLS encryption is activated, data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.  

Encrypted payment transactions on this website

If you are under an obligation to share your payment information (e.g. account number if you give us the authority to debit your bank account) with us after you have entered into a fee-based contract with us, this information is required to process payments.  

Payment transactions using common modes of paying (Visa/MasterCard, debit to  your bank account) are processed exclusively via encrypted SSL or TLS connections. You can recognize an encrypted connection by checking whether the address line of  the browser switches from “http://” to “https://” and also by the appearance of the lock icon in the browser line.  

If the communication with us is encrypted, third parties will not be able to read the payment information you share with us. 

Information about, rectification and eradication of data

Within the scope of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right to at any time demand information about your archived personal data, their source and recipients as well as the purpose of the processing of your data. You may also have a right to have your data rectified or eradicated. If you have questions about this subject matter or any other questions about personal data, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time.

Right to demand processing restrictions

You have the right to demand the imposition of restrictions as far as the processing of your personal data is concerned. To do so, you may contact us at any time. The right  to demand restriction of processing applies in the following cases:  

∙ In the event that you should dispute the correctness of your data archived by us, we will usually need some time to verify this claim. During the time that this investigation is ongoing, you have the right to demand that we restrict the  processing of your personal data. 

∙ If the processing of your personal data was/is conducted in an unlawful manner, you have the option to demand the restriction of the processing of your data in lieu of demanding the eradication of this data.  

∙ If we do not need your personal data any longer and you need it to exercise, defend or claim legal entitlements, you have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its eradication.  

∙ If you have raised an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, your rights and our rights will have to be weighed against each other. As long as it has not been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to demand a restriction of the processing of your personal data.  

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data – with the exception of their archiving – may be processed only subject to your consent or to claim, exercise or defend legal entitlements or to protect the rights of other natural persons or legal entities or for important public interest reasons cited by the European Union or a member state of the EU.  

Rejection of unsolicited e-mails

We herewith object to the use of contact information published in conjunction with the mandatory information to be provided in our Site Notice to send us promotional and  information material that we have not expressly requested. The operators of this website and its pages reserve the express right to take legal action in the event of the  unsolicited sending of promotional information, for instance via SPAM messages.

7. Plug-ins and Tools

YouTube with expanded data protection integration

Our website embeds videos of the website YouTube. The website operator is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.  

We use YouTube in the expanded data protection mode. According to YouTube, this mode ensures that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this  website before they watch the video. Nevertheless, this does not necessarily mean that the sharing of data with YouTube partners can be ruled out as a result of the  expanded data protection mode. For instance, regardless of whether you are watching a video, YouTube will always establish a connection with the Google DoubleClick network.  

As soon as you start to play a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube’s servers will be established. As a result, the YouTube server will be  notified, which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account while you visit our site, you enable YouTube to directly allocate your browsing patterns to your personal profile. You have the option to prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.  

Furthermore, after you have started to play a video, YouTube will be able to place various cookies on your device or comparable technologies for recognition (e.g. device fingerprinting). In this way YouTube will be able to obtain information about this website’s visitors. Among other things, this information will be used to generate video statistics with the aim of improving the user friendliness of the site and to prevent attempts to commit fraud. 

Under certain circumstances, additional data processing transactions may be triggered after you have started to play a YouTube video, which are beyond our control.  

The use of YouTube is based on our interest in presenting our online content in an appealing manner. Pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, this is a legitimate interest. If a  corresponding agreement has been requested, the processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; the agreement can be revoked at any time.  

For more information on how YouTube handles user data, please consult the YouTube Data Privacy Policy under: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

Vimeo Without Tracking (Do-Not-Track)

This website uses plugins of the Vimeo video portal. The provider is Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.  

Whenever you visit one of our pages featuring Vimeo videos, a connection with the servers of Vimeo is established. In conjunction with this, the Vimeo server receives  information about which of our sites you have visited. Vimeo also receives your IP address. However, we have set up Vimeo in such a way that Vimeo cannot track your user activities and does not place any cookies.  

We use Vimeo to make our online presentation attractive for you. This is a legitimate interest on our part pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If a respective declaration of consent was requested (e.g. concerning the storage of cookies), processing shall occur exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; the given consent may be revoked at any time.  

Data transmission to the US is based on the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) of the European Commission and, according to Vimeo, on “legitimate business interests”. Details can be found here: https://vimeo.com/privacy.

Google Maps

This website uses the mapping service Google Maps. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. 

To enable the use of the Google Maps features, your IP address must be stored. As a rule, this information is transferred to one of Google’s servers in the United States,  where it is archived. The operator of this website has no control over the data transfer. In case Google Maps has been activated, Google has the option to use Google web fonts for the purpose of the uniform depiction of fonts. When you access Google Maps, your browser will load the required web fonts into your browser cache, to correctly display text and fonts.  

We use Google Maps to present our online content in an appealing manner and to make the locations disclosed on our website easy to find. This constitutes a  legitimate interest as defined in Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If a respective declaration of consent has been obtained, the data shall be processed exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. This declaration of consent may be revoked at any time.

Google reCAPTCHA

We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter referred to as “reCAPTCHA”) on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow  Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.  

The purpose of reCAPTCHA is to determine whether data entered on this website (e.g., information entered into a contact form) is being provided by a human user or by an automated program. To determine this, reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitors based on a variety of parameters. This analysis is triggered automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the site. For this analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates a variety of data (e.g., IP address, time the website visitor spent on the site or cursor movements initiated by the user). The data tracked during such analyses are forwarded to Google.  

reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not alerted that an analysis is underway.  

Data are stored and analyzed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the protection of the operator’s websites against abusive automated spying and against SPAM. If a respective declaration of consent has been obtained, the data will be processed exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Any such consent may be revoked at any time.
