3. General Notes and Mandatory Information

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. When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data by which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done. We point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Notice on the Responsible Party

The responsible party for data processing on this website is:

Paul Schiffers
SMartDe eG - Cooperative for the Self-Employed
Franz-Mehring-Platz 1
10243 Berlin

E-Mail: member [at] coquest.coop

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

Retention Period

Unless a more specific retention period has been stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for the data processing no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data; in the latter case, deletion will occur after those reasons cease to apply.

Data processing is based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The specific legal bases applicable in individual cases are described in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.

Recipients of Personal Data

In the course of our business activities, we work with various external parties. No transmission of personal data to these external parties is required.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME, ON GROUNDS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA; IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ASSERTION, EXERCISE OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment 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.

Access, Rectification, and Deletion

Within the framework of applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient, and the purpose of the data processing, and, if applicable, the right to rectification or deletion of this data. For this and further questions on the topic of personal data, you can contact us at any time.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion. 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 the restriction of processing of your personal data instead of deletion. If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of your interests and ours must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data — apart from its storage — may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

SSL/TLS Encryption

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize 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. When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to Promotional Emails

The use of contact data published in the context of the imprint obligation for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and information materials is hereby objected to. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as through spam emails.

4. Data Collection on This Website

Cookies

Our website does not use so-called “cookies”.

Local Storage

Our website uses so-called “Local Storage”. Data is stored on your device. No other websites have access to this data. The processing of this data is based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. It is required for the correct delivery of the website.

Server Log Files

No log files containing personal data are stored on the server.

Server Data Processing

The server software processes personal data that your browser automatically transmits to us. This includes:

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation of its website. The named data is deleted directly after successful delivery and display of the webpage on the server. No merging of this data with other data sources is carried out.

Contact by Email

If you contact us by email, your request including all resulting personal data (name, request) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your inquiry. We do not pass this data on without your consent. Processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries directed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The data you send us via contact requests will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your inquiry has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions — in particular statutory retention periods — remain unaffected.

5. Analytics Tools

Plausible Analytics

This website uses the analytics tool Plausible Analytics to statistically evaluate visitor access. With Plausible we can analyze the use of our website. Plausible processes, among other things, log data (IP address, referrer, browsers used, origin of the user, search engine used) and actions that website visitors have taken on the site (e.g. clicks and views). The data collected with Plausible is stored exclusively on our own server. The use of this analytics tool is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in the anonymized analysis of user behavior in order to optimize our web offering.

IP Anonymization

We use Plausible with anonymized IP. Your IP address is anonymized using a mathematical hash procedure and only the resulting hash is stored. The IP address can no longer be determined from the hash. The same procedure applies to other log data such as browsers used, etc. Plausible therefore stores no personal data.
