The processing of personal data of children below this minimum age is only carried out if parental consent is provided. If we become aware that personal data of children has been processed without the appropriate consent, we will delete such data immediately.

E-Mail: datenschutz(at)hbsn-gruppe.de

Information on data transfer to the USA and other non-EU countries

Among other things, we use tools of companies domiciled in the United States or other from a data protection perspective non-secure non-EU countries. If these tools are active, your personal data may potentially be transferred to these non-EU countries and may be processed there. We must point out that in these countries, a data protection level that is comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed. For instance, U.S. enterprises are under a mandate to release personal data to the security agencies and you as the data subject do not have any litigation options to defend yourself in court. Hence, it cannot be ruled out that U.S. agencies (e.g., the Secret Service) may process, analyze, and permanently archive your personal data for surveillance purposes. We have no control over these processing activities.

Revocation of your consent to the processing of data

A wide range of data processing transactions are possible only subject to your express consent. You can also revoke at any time any consent you have already given us. This shall be without prejudice to the lawfulness of any data collection that occurred prior to your revocation.

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

IN THE EVENT THAT DATA ARE PROCESSED ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO AT ANY TIME OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA BASED ON GROUNDS ARISING FROM YOUR UNIQUE SITUATION. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO ANY PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. TO DETERMINE THE LEGAL BASIS, ON WHICH ANY PROCESSING OF DATA IS BASED, PLEASE CONSULT THIS DATA PROTECTION DECLARATION. IF YOU LOG AN OBJECTION, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA, UNLESS WE ARE IN A POSITION TO PRESENT COMPELLING PROTECTION WORTHY GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DATA, THAT OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR IF THE PURPOSE OF THE PROCESSING IS THE CLAIMING, EXERCISING OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL ENTITLEMENTS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS BEING PROCESSED IN ORDER TO ENGAGE IN DIRECT ADVERTISING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSES OF SUCH ADVERTISING AT ANY TIME. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS AFFILIATED WITH SUCH DIRECT ADVERTISING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT ADVERTISING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to log a complaint with the competent supervisory agency

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects are entitled to log a complaint with a supervisory agency, in particular in the member state where they usually maintain their domicile, place of work or at the place where the alleged violation occurred. The right to log a complaint is in effect regardless of any other administrative or court proceedings available as legal recourses.

Right to data portability

You have the right to demand that we hand over any data we automatically process on the basis of your consent or in order to fulfil a contract be handed over to you or a third party in a commonly used, machine readable format. If you should demand the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will be done only if it is technically feasible.

SSL and/or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as inquiries you submit to us as the website operator, this website uses either an SSL or a TLS encryption program. You can recognize an encrypted connection by checking whether the address line of the browser switches from “http://” to “https://” and also by the appearance of the lock icon in the browser line.

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

Information about, rectification and eradication of data

Within the scope of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right to at any time demand information about your archived personal data, their source and recipients as well as the purpose of the processing of your data. You may also have a right to have your data rectified or eradicated. If you have questions about this subject matter or any other questions about personal data, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time.

Right to demand processing restrictions

You have the right to demand the imposition of restrictions as far as the processing of your personal data is concerned. To do so, you may contact us at any time. The right to demand restriction of processing applies in the following cases:

  • In the event that you should dispute the correctness of your data archived by us, we will usually need some time to verify this claim. During the time that this investigation is ongoing, you have the right to demand that we restrict the processing of your personal data.
  • If the processing of your personal data was/is conducted in an unlawful manner, you have the option to demand the restriction of the processing of your data in lieu of demanding the eradication of this data.
  • If we do not need your personal data any longer and you need it to exercise, defend or claim legal entitlements, you have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its eradication.
  • If you have raised an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, your rights and our rights will have to be weighed against each other. As long as it has not been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to demand a restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data – with the exception of their archiving – may be processed only subject to your consent or to claim, exercise or defend legal entitlements or to protect the rights of other natural persons or legal entities or for important public interest reasons cited by the European Union or a member state of the EU.

Rejection of unsolicited e-mails

The operators of this website and its pages reserve the express right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of promotional information, for instance via SPAM messages.

SOCIAL MEDIA

Facebook and Instagram

For the information service it provides, Simon H. Steiner, Hopfen, GmbH uses the technical platform and services of Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

Please note that you use the Facebook and/or Instagram page and its functions at your own risk. This applies in particular to the interactive functions (e.g. commenting, sharing, rating). Facebook processes personal data about your account, your IP address and the end devices you use; cookies are used for data collection. These are small files that are stored on your end devices. The information that Facebook receives and how it is used is described in general terms in Facebook's data policy. This also contains information about how to contact Facebook, how to object to the use of your data and how to customise your ad settings.

The data policy is available via the following link: http://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy

You can find Facebook's complete data policy here: https://de-de.facebook.com/full_data_use_policy

Facebook may use the information to provide us, as the operator of the Facebook pages, with statistical information such as gender and age distribution regarding the use of the Facebook page. In addition, Facebook may display further information or advertisements to you based on your preferences.

Facebook provides more information about this at the following link: http://de-de.facebook.com/help/pages/insights.

The data collected about you in this context is processed by Facebook Ltd. and may be transferred to countries outside the European Union. If you visit one of our social media sites (e.g. Facebook), you trigger the processing of your personal data when you visit. In this case, we are jointly responsible with the operator of the respective social network for the data processing operations within the meaning of Art. 26 GDPR, provided that we actually make a joint decision with the operator of the social network regarding data processing and we also influence the data processing. As far as possible, we have concluded agreements on joint responsibility with the operators of the social networks in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR, in particular the Page Controller Addendums of Facebook Ireland Ltd.

Your rights (right of access according to Art. 15 GDPR, right to rectification according to Art. 16 GDPR, right to erasure according to Art. 17 GDPR, right to restriction of processing according to Art. 18 GDPR, the right to data portability in accordance with Art. 20 GDPR and the right to lodge a complaint in accordance with Art. 77 GDPR) can be asserted both against us and against the operator of the respective social network (e.g. Facebook).
Please note that despite our joint responsibility with the social network operators under Article 26 of the GDPR, we do not have full influence over the data processing of the individual social networks. The corporate policy of the respective provider has a significant influence on our options. In the event of the assertion of data subject rights, we would only be able to forward these requests to the social network operator.

The way in which Facebook uses the data from visits to Facebook pages for its own purposes, the extent to which activities on the Facebook page are assigned to individual users, how long Facebook stores this data and whether data from a visit to the Facebook page is passed on to third parties is not conclusively and clearly stated by Facebook and is not known to us.

When you access a Facebook page, the IP address assigned to your end device is transmitted to Facebook. According to Facebook, this IP address is anonymised (for ‘German’ IP addresses) and deleted after 90 days. Facebook also stores information about its users' end devices (for example, as part of the “login notification” function); this may enable Facebook to assign IP addresses to individual users.

If you are currently logged into Facebook as a user, a cookie with your Facebook ID is stored on your device. This enables Facebook to track the fact that you have visited this page and how you have used it. This also applies to all other Facebook pages. Facebook buttons embedded in websites enable Facebook to record your visits to these websites and to associate them with your Facebook profile. This data can be used to offer you customised content or advertising. If you wish to avoid this, you should log out of Facebook or deactivate the ‘Stay logged in’ function, delete the cookies stored on your device and close and restart your browser. This will delete Facebook information that can be used to identify you directly. This allows you to use our Facebook page without revealing your Facebook ID. When you access interactive features on the page (like, comment, share, message, etc.), a Facebook login screen will appear. After logging in, you will again be recognisable to Facebook as a specific user. Alternatively, you can use a different browser than usual to visit our Facebook page.

For information on how to manage or delete information about you, please visit the following Facebook support pages: https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy#

As the provider of the information service, we do not collect or process any further data from your use of our service. The latest version of this data protection declaration can be found under the item ‘Data Policy’ on our Facebook page.

X (Twitter)

Simon H. Steiner, Hopfen, GmbH uses the technical platform and services of Twitter Inc., 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103 U.S.A. for the short message service offered. Twitter International Company, One Cumberland Place, Fenian Street, Dublin 2 D02 AX07, Ireland, is responsible for data processing for persons living outside the United States.

We would like to point out that you use the Twitter short message service offered here and its functions at your own risk. This applies in particular to the use of interactive functions (e.g. sharing or rating).

Information about which data is processed by Twitter and for what purposes it is used can be found in Twitter's privacy policy: https://twitter.com/de/privacy

The information collected by the cookies of this provider is usually sent to a server in the USA and stored there. In the case of the transfer of data to the USA, the data transfer is based on the existence of standard contractual clauses.

Simon H. Steiner, Hopfen, GmbH has no influence on the type and scope of the data processed by Twitter, the type of processing and use or the disclosure of this data to third parties. Nor does it have any effective means of control in this respect. When you use Twitter, your personal data is collected, transmitted, stored, disclosed and used by Twitter Inc. and, regardless of your place of residence, transferred to, stored and used in the United States, Ireland and any other country in which Twitter Inc. does business. On the one hand, Twitter processes the data you voluntarily enter, such as your name and username, email address, telephone number or the contacts in your address book when you upload or synchronise them. On the other hand, Twitter also analyses the content you share to determine which topics you are interested in, stores and processes confidential messages that you send directly to other users, and can determine your location using GPS data, information about wireless networks or your IP address in order to send you advertising or other content.

Twitter Inc. may use analysis tools such as Twitter or Google Analytics for evaluation purposes. Simon H. Steiner, Hopfen, GmbH has no influence on the use of such tools by Twitter Inc. and has not been informed of such potential use. Should Twitter Inc. use tools of this kind for the account of Simon H. Steiner, Hopfen, GmbH, Simon H. Steiner, Hopfen, GmbH has neither commissioned nor approved nor otherwise supported this in any way. Furthermore, the data obtained during the analysis is not made available to us. Only certain non-personal information about tweet activity, such as the number of profile or link clicks through a particular tweet, can be viewed by Simon H. Steiner, Hopfen, GmbH via their account. Moreover, Simon H. Steiner, Hopfen, GmbH has no way of preventing or disabling the use of such tools on their Twitter account.

Finally, Twitter also receives information when you view content, for example, even if you have not created an account. This so-called ‘log data’ may include your IP address, browser type, operating system, information about the website previously visited and the pages you have accessed, your location, your mobile service provider, the end device you are using (including device ID and application ID), the search terms you have used and cookie information.

Twitter buttons or widgets embedded in websites and the use of cookies enable Twitter to record your visits to these websites and to assign them to your Twitter profile. This data can be used to offer you customised content or advertising. The fact that Twitter Inc. is a non-European provider with a European branch only in Ireland means that, according to its own interpretation, it is not bound by German data protection regulations. This affects, for example, your rights to information, blocking or deletion of data or the possibility of objecting to the use of usage data for advertising purposes.

You have options for restricting the processing of your data in the general settings of your Twitter account and under the item ‘Privacy and safety’. In addition, you can restrict Twitter's access to contact and calendar data, photos, location data, etc. on mobile devices (smartphones, tablet computers) by adjusting the settings on those devices. However, this depends on the operating system used.

The data that you freely publish and distribute on Twitter is thus incorporated by us into our offering and made accessible to our followers.

HUBSPOT

We use HubSpot for marketing activities on our website. HubSpot is a software company based in the United States with an office at HubSpot Ireland Limited at 2nd Floor 30 North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland.

We use this integrated software solution for our own marketing, lead generation and customer service. These include email marketing, which regulates the sending of newsletters and automated mailings, social media publishing and reporting, contact management such as user segmentation and CRM, landing pages and contact forms. HubSpot uses cookies that are stored locally in the cache of your web browser on your device and enable an analysis of your use of the website.

HubSpot evaluates the information collected (e.g. IP address, geographical location, type of browser, duration of the visit and pages accessed) on our behalf so that we can generate reports on the visit and the pages visited.

Information collected through HubSpot and the content of our website are stored on servers of HubSpot's service providers. If you have given your consent to this in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (a) GDPR, the processing on this website will take place for the purpose of website analysis. Since personal data is transferred to the USA, further protection mechanisms are required to ensure the level of data protection of the GDPR.

To ensure this, we have agreed standard data protection clauses with the provider in accordance with Art. 46 (2) (c) GDPR. These oblige the recipient of the data in the USA to process the data in accordance with the level of protection in Europe. Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) are templates provided by the EU Commission and are intended to ensure that your data complies with European data protection standards even if it is transferred to third countries and stored there. Through the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and the Standard Contractual Clauses, HubSpot undertakes to comply with the European level of data protection when processing your relevant data, even if the data is stored and processed in the USA.

Further information can be found here: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/SharedDocs/Kurzmeldungen/DE/2023/17_Angemessenheitsbeschluss-EU-US-DPF.html

In cases where this cannot be ensured even by this contractual extension, we will endeavour to obtain further regulations and commitments from the recipient in the USA. The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. You can permanently object to the collection of data by HubSpot and the setting of cookies by preventing the storage of cookies through your browser settings. You can object to the processing of your personal data at any time with effect for the future.

HubSpot is an active participant in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which regulates the correct and secure data transfer of personal data of EU citizens to the USA. Further information can be found here: https://commission.europa.eu/document/fa09cbad-dd7d-4684-ae60-be03fcb0fddf_en.
