Privacy Policy

Protecting your personal data when it is collected, processed and used in connection with your visit to the website www.kaeltefischer.de of Christof Fischer GmbH, Waiblinger Straße 111, 71394 Kernen im Remstal is very important to us. We would like you to know when we collect which data and how we use it. We have taken technical and organizational measures to ensure that the data protection regulations are complied with both by us and by any external service providers. Your data is protected within the framework of the statutory provisions. On this website, personal data is collected automatically only to the extent technically necessary.

Below you will find information on which data is collected during your visit to the website and how it is used.

Definition and handling of personal data:

Personal data is individual information about your personal and factual circumstances, such as your name, address or email address. If you use our website purely for informational purposes, we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to us in order to enable you to visit the website, or that results from the data transfer itself. This includes, for example, information about the page accessed or the name of the file retrieved, date and time. The purpose of collecting this data is to enable you to visit our website and to ensure ongoing system security, as well as technical administration. In this context, an evaluation of your IP address may also be used appropriately. In some cases, cookies and various analytics tools may also be used.

We do not pass on your personal data to third parties unless we are obliged to do so by statutory provisions or a court order.

Fischer online services (online ordering, contact form)

If the website offers the option to enter personal data (email addresses, names, addresses), the user provides this data expressly on a voluntary basis.

Using the data you provide, an unencrypted email is generated directly—without intermediate storage—to fischer@kaeltefischer.de, which you transmit to us by sending it. Please note that the email is unencrypted, so please be sure not to provide any confidential data or information via this route.

The personal data collected is used exclusively for the purpose of processing the contract.

By transmitting your personal data to us, you consent to the collection, processing and use of your data in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Use and disclosure of personal data

If you have provided us with personal data, we will use it only to respond to your inquiries and for technical administration.
Your personal data will only be passed on to third parties or otherwise transmitted if this is necessary for the purpose of processing the contract—especially the transfer of order data to suppliers—if this is necessary for billing purposes, if we are legally obliged to do so, or if you have previously consented.
You have the right to revoke any consent you have given at any time with effect for the future.
Stored personal data will be deleted if you revoke your consent to storage, if knowledge of it is no longer required to fulfill the purpose pursued with the storage, i.e. the process has been completed and no statutory deletion periods prevent this, or if its storage is inadmissible for other legal reasons. If the data cannot be deleted, it will be blocked for further processing until statutory deletion periods expire.

Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. If IP anonymization is activated on this website, however, your IP address will first be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services related to website and internet use to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software settings; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link (http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de).

Further information on terms of use and data protection can be found at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de or at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/. We would like to point out that on this website Google Analytics has been extended by the code “anonymizeIp“ to ensure anonymized collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking).

Use of Google Maps

The website of Christof Fischer GmbH, Waiblinger Straße 111, 71394 Kernen im Remstal uses the Google Maps API to display geographical information visually, e.g. in the branch finder. When using Google Maps, Google (Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, California, 94043) also collects, processes and uses data about visitors’ use of the Maps functions on the websites. For more information about data processing by Google, please refer to Google’s privacy notices, which you can access at www.google.com/privacypolicy.html. By using the Google Maps API, information about the use of the website, including your anonymized and truncated IP address, is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. At this point, we explicitly point out the different levels of data protection in Europe and the USA. If you do not wish to use the Google Maps API, please disable JavaScript in your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case you will not be able to use the map display, e.g. the branch finder, and possibly other functions on this website. By using the services, I consent to the transfer of data to Google.

Security notice

We endeavor to store your personal data by taking all technical and organizational measures so that it is not accessible to third parties. When communicating via unencrypted email, complete data security cannot be guaranteed by us, so we recommend using postal mail for confidential information.
