The controller responsible for data processing on this website within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is:

HPX Polymers GmbH
Ziegeleistraße 1
82327 Tutzing, Germany
Phone: +49 (0)8158 9075400

2. Hosting and server log files

This website is hosted by STRATO GmbH, Otto-Ostrowski-Straße 7, 10249 Berlin, Germany. A data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR is in place with STRATO.

Each time our website is accessed, the server automatically stores information transmitted by your browser in so-called log files. This includes:

  • date and time of access
  • page or file requested
  • amount of data transferred and access status (e.g. file transferred, file not found)
  • website from which the access was made (referrer URL)
  • browser and operating system used
  • IP address of the requesting computer

STRATO stores the full IP address temporarily and exclusively for the purpose of detecting and defending against attacks, and deletes it after seven days at the latest. In the log files made available to us as the operator of the website, the IP address is anonymised, so that we cannot draw any conclusions about your identity. These log files are deleted after six weeks.

This data is not combined with any other data sources. It is processed to provide the website technically and to ensure its stability and security. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest lies in the secure and error-free operation of the website.

 

3. Cookies, analytics and tracking

This website does not use cookies. We do not use any analytics or tracking services and do not embed content from external providers (such as fonts, maps or videos). All components of the website are loaded from our own web space.

 

4. SSL/TLS encryption

For security reasons, this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by “https://” in your browser’s address bar.

 

5. Contacting us by e-mail or phone

If you contact us by e-mail or phone, we process the data you provide (e.g. name, e-mail address, phone number, company and the content of your enquiry) in order to handle your enquiry.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where your enquiry relates to the performance of a contract or to pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Your data will be deleted once your enquiry has been fully dealt with, unless statutory retention obligations (in particular under commercial and tax law) prevent deletion.

 

6. Disclosure of data

We do not pass your personal data on to third parties unless we are legally obliged to do so. The only exception is our hosting provider STRATO, which processes data exclusively on our behalf and in accordance with our instructions (see section 2). No data is transferred to countries outside the European Union.

 

7. Storage period

We store personal data only for as long as is necessary for the respective purpose or as required by statutory retention periods. The data is then deleted.

 

8. Your rights

With regard to your personal data, you have the following rights:

  • right of access (Art. 15 GDPR)
  • right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
  • right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
  • right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
  • right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
  • right to withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future (Art. 7(3) GDPR)

Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR): Where we process your data on the basis of legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), you have the right to object to this processing at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation.

To exercise your rights, an informal message to the contact details given in section 1 is sufficient.

 

9. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR. The authority responsible for us is:

Bayerisches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht (BayLDA)
Promenade 18
91522 Ansbach, Germany
