Scope This privacy policy is intended to inform users of this website, in accordance with the Federal Data Protection Act and the Telemedia Act, about the nature, scope, and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the website operator Schloss Hugenpoet GmbH & Co. KG, August-Thyssen-Str. 51, 45219 Essen.
The website operator takes your data protection very seriously and treats your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal regulations.
Please note that data transmission on the internet can generally be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection against unauthorized access by third parties is not feasible.
Access Data The website operator or page provider collects data about access to the site and stores it as "server log files". The following data is logged:
- Page Visited
- Time of Access
- Amount of Data Sent in Bytes
- Source/Referrer from which you accessed the page
- Browser Used
- Operating System Used
- IP Address Used
The collected data is used solely for statistical analysis and to improve the website. However, the website operator reserves the right to subsequently review the server log files if there are concrete indications of unlawful use.
Cookies This website uses cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Your browser accesses these files. The use of cookies increases the user-friendliness and security of this website.
Common browsers offer the option to disallow cookies. Note: It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if you make such settings.
Handling of Personal Data The website operator collects, uses, and shares your personal data only if permitted by law or if you consent to the data collection.
Personal data refers to all information that serves to identify you and can be traced back to you – for example, your name, email address, and phone number.
Handling of Contact Data If you contact the website operator using the provided contact options, your information will be stored so that it can be used to process and respond to your inquiry. Without your consent, this data will not be passed on to third parties.
Handling of Comments and Posts If you leave a post or comment on this website, your IP address will be stored. This serves the security of the website operator: if your text violates the law, they want to be able to trace your identity.
Subscriptions You have the option to subscribe to both the entire website and follow-up comments on your post. You will receive an email to confirm your email address. No other data will be collected in addition to this. The stored data will not be passed on to third parties. You can unsubscribe from a subscription at any time.
Google Analytics This website uses the service "Google Analytics", offered by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA), for analyzing website usage by users. The service uses "cookies" – text files that are stored on your device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
IP anonymization is active on this website. Users' IP addresses are truncated within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. This truncation removes the personal reference of your IP address. As part of the data processing agreement concluded by the website operators with Google Inc., Google uses the collected information to evaluate website usage and activity and provides services related to internet usage.
You have the option to prevent the storage of cookies on your device by making appropriate settings in your browser. It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies.
Furthermore, you can prevent the information collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to and used by Google Inc. via a browser plugin. The following link leads you to the corresponding plugin:
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de Alternatively, by clicking this link, you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you on this website. Clicking the link above will download an "opt-out cookie". Your browser must therefore generally allow the storage of cookies for this to work. If you regularly delete your cookies, you will need to click the link again each time you visit this website.
