2. General information and mandatory information

Data protection

The operators of this website and its pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We therefore treat your personal data confidentially and in compliance with legal data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

Each time you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to personally identify you. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and for what purposes we use this data. It also explains how and for what purpose the data is collected.

We hereby draw your attention to the fact that the transmission of data via the Internet (e.g. by e-mail) may be subject to security gaps. It is not possible to completely protect data from access by third parties.

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

The person responsible for data processing on this website is:

EXXPAND ELECTRONIC GmbH
Am Pfarranger 27
84036 Kumhausen

Phone 0871 404 373 18
email: info@exxpand.de

The responsible person is the natural or legal person who, alone or together with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

A variety of data processing processes are only possible with your express consent. You can withdraw consent that you have already given at any time. All you need to do is send us an informal message by e-mail. The lawfulness of the data collection carried out up to the time of revocation remains unaffected.

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

If data is processed on the basis of Article 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. This also applies to any profiling based on these provisions. To determine the legal basis on which data processing is based, please consult this privacy statement. If you file an objection, we will no longer process your personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing your data that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (objection in accordance with Article 21 (1) GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data concerned for the purposes of this advertising at any time. This also applies to profiling, insofar as it is associated with such direct advertising. In the event of your objection, your personal data will henceforth no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection in accordance with Article 21 (2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State in which they have their habitual residence or place of work or where the alleged infringement was committed. The right to file a complaint is independent of other administrative or judicial proceedings that are available as remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to request that we provide you or a third party with all data that we automatically process on the basis of your consent or to fulfill a contract in a common, machine-readable format. Should you request the direct transfer of data to another person responsible, this will only be done if this is technically possible.

SSL and/or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of sensitive content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as a website operator, this website uses either SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection when the browser's address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and that the lock icon is displayed in the browser line.

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

Information about blocking, correcting and deleting data

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to request information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of processing your data at any time. You may also have the right to correct, block or delete your data. If you have any questions about this topic or other questions about data protection, you can contact us at any time at the address provided in the “Information required by law” section.

Right to restrict processing

You have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. For this purpose, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the “Information required by law” section. The right to restrict processing applies in the following cases:

  • Should you dispute the accuracy of your data stored with us, we usually need some time to review this objection. During this audit, you have the right to ask us to restrict the processing of your personal data.
  • If the processing of your personal data was or is carried out unlawfully, you have the option of requesting that the processing of your data be restricted instead of deleting this data.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted instead of deletion.
  • If you have filed an objection in accordance with Article 21 (1) GDPR, your rights and our rights must be balanced against each other. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data — with the exception of archiving — may only be processed with your consent or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of other natural or legal persons or for reasons of important public interest asserted by the European Union or a member state of the EU.

Rejecting unsolicited emails

We hereby object to the use of contact details published in connection with the information to be provided in the “Statutory Information” section for the purpose of sending promotional and informational material that we have not expressly requested. The operators of this website and its pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as through SPAM messages.

3. Collection of data on our website

cookies

In some cases, our website and its pages use so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. The purpose of cookies is to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and stored by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted as soon as you leave our website. Other cookies remain on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit our website.

You can adjust your browser settings so that you are notified every time cookies are set and that you can only accept cookies in certain cases or refuse to accept them in certain situations or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. If you disable cookies, the features of this website may be limited.

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions that you would like to use (e.g. the shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Should other cookies (e.g. cookies to analyze your surfing behavior) be stored, these will be dealt with separately in this privacy policy.

server log files

The operator of this website and its pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. This information includes:

  • Type and version of browser used
  • The operating system used
  • referrer URL
  • The host name of the accessing computer
  • The time of the server request
  • The IP address

This data is not combined with other data sources.

This data is collected on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The operator of the website has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of his website. For this purpose, it is necessary to collect server log files.

contact form

If you send us inquiries via our contact form, the information provided in the contact form and the contact details contained therein will be stored by us in order to process your request and in case we have further questions. We will not share this information without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You have the right to withdraw any consent you have already given us at any time. All you need to do is send us an informal message by e-mail. The lawfulness of the data collection carried out up to the time of revocation remains unaffected.

The data you have entered in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete the data, withdraw your consent to store it, or the purpose for which the data was stored no longer applies (e.g. after we have processed your request). Mandatory legal provisions — in particular retention periods — remain unaffected.

Request via e-mail, telephone or fax

If you contact us by email, telephone or fax, your request and all associated personal data (name, request) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We will not share this information without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, insofar as your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO) and/or on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO), as we have a legitimate interest in the effective processing of inquiries addressed to us.

The data that you submit to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or the purpose of data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been completed). Mandatory legal provisions — in particular statutory retention periods — remain unaffected.

4th newsletter

Newsletter data

If you would like to subscribe to the newsletter offered on this website, we need an email address from you as well as information that allows us to verify whether you are the owner of the email address provided and agree to receive the newsletter. No further data is collected or only on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively to send the requested information and do not share it with third parties.

The data entered in the subscription form for the newsletter is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can withdraw your consent to the storage of data, email address and use this information to send the newsletter at any time, for example by clicking on the “Unsubscribe” link in the newsletter. The lawfulness of the data processing operations carried out up to that point remains unaffected.

The data that you provide to us for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter. As soon as you cancel your newsletter subscription, the data is deleted. This has no effect on data that we have stored for other purposes.

5. Plug-ins and tools

Google Web Fonts (local embedding)

This website uses so-called web fonts from Google to ensure a uniform display of fonts on this page. These Google fonts are installed locally, so there is no connection to Google's servers associated with this application.

Google Maps

Edit static and dynamic content

A rich text element can be used for both static and dynamic content. For static content, simply paste it onto any page and start editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then link a rich text element to that field in the settings area. It's done!

This website uses the Google Maps map service via an API. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. To enable the use of Google Maps features, your IP address must be saved. This information is usually transferred to a Google server in the United States and stored there. The operator of this website has no influence on this data transfer. We use Google Maps to present our online content in an appealing way and to make the locations listed on our website easy to find. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. For more information on how to handle user data, please see Google's privacy policy at:

https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

How to adjust the formatting for each rich text section

Headings, paragraphs, block quotes, illustrations, images, and captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the “When inside of” nested selector system.
