3 - General information on data processing

3.1 - Scope of the processing of personal data

a.) Data collection when calling up the website

You can visit our website without providing any personal information. Each time you call up a website, the web server only automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your pseudonymised IP address, the date and time of the call-up, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the call-up. This access data is evaluated solely for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our services. This serves to protect our legitimate interests in the correct presentation of our offer, which outweigh our interests in the context of a balancing of interests in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO. All access data is deleted at the latest seven days after the end of your visit to the site.

b.) Contract data

We collect, process and store the data you provide when you register with us and/or decide to purchase our products. Personal data is collected via the completed registration masks/order forms with details of name, address including e-mail address as well as details of the respective order including payment details. The entry of this data and the transmission is left to the free decision of the customer. Only those personal data are collected that are absolutely necessary for the fulfilment of the contract. The collected data will only be stored for as long as is necessary and permissible within the framework of the contractual agreement and in compliance with the applicable law.

3.2 - Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Insofar as we obtain your consent for processing operations of personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.

When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, Art. 6 (1) (b) DSGVO serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures.

If processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject, Art. 6 (1) c DSGVO serves as the legal basis.

If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and your interests, fundamental rights and freedoms do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO serves as the legal basis for the processing.

3.3 - Data deletion and storage period

Your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for storing it no longer applies. Storage may also take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws or other provisions to which we are subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a necessity for the continued storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

4 - Provision of the website and creation of log files

4.1 - Description and scope of data processing

4.2 - Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data and the log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

4.3 - Purpose of the data processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.

The storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimise the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.

These purposes are also our legitimate interest in data processing according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

4.4 - Duration of storage

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected.

Storage of data in the log files: The IP address and the HTTP user agent are stored in plain text in the web server log files for a maximum of 6 weeks to detect and analyse attacks on our website.

Storage of data in our database: An anonymised storage as hash takes place in our database for 7 days in order to be able to allocate and pay out the sales commission to our affiliates.

4.5 - Possibility of objection and elimination

The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of the data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility for you to object.

These purposes are also our legitimate interest in processing the personal data according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO.

5.4 - Duration of storage, possibility of objection and removal

Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted to our site by the user. Therefore, you as a user also have full control over the use of cookies.

Registration of the user is necessary for the provision of the following content and services on our website: to fulfil the B2B contract with our business customers and to fulfil B2C contracts with private customers.

8.4 - Duration of storage

This is the case for the data collected during the registration process when the registration on our website is cancelled or modified or for the data collected during the registration process for the performance of a contract or for the performance of pre-contractual measures when the data is no longer required for the performance of the contract. Even after the conclusion of the contract, there may be a need to store personal data of the contractual partner in order to comply with contractual or legal obligations.

8.5 - Possibility of objection and removal

As a user, you have the option to cancel your registration at any time. You can have the data stored about you changed at any time. To make a corresponding request, you can contact our data protection team at the e-mail address given in section 2.

If the data is required for the fulfilment of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, early deletion of the data is only possible insofar as contractual or legal obligations do not prevent deletion.

9 - Contact form and e-mail contact

9.1 - Description and scope of data processing

There is a contact option on our website which refers you to our general e-mail address. In this case, the personal data transmitted with the e-mail will be stored.

In the case of contact by e-mail, this also constitutes the necessary legitimate interest in processing the data.

The other personal data processed during the sending process serve to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.

9.4 - Duration of storage

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. For personal data sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with you has ended. The conversation is ended when the circumstances indicate that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.

The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of seven days at the latest.

9.5 - Possibility of objection and removal

the existence of a right of appeal to a supervisory authority;

any available information on the origin of the data if the personal data is not collected from the data subject;

You have the right to request information on whether personal data concerning you are transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. In this context, you may request to be informed about the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Article 46 of the GDPR in connection with the transfer.

10.2 - Right of rectification

You have a right of rectification and/or completion vis-à-vis us if the personal data processed concerning you are inaccurate or incomplete. We must make the rectification without undue delay.

10.3 - Right to restrict processing

You may request the restriction of the processing of personal data concerning you under the following conditions:

if you dispute the accuracy of the personal data relating to you for a period of time which allows us to verify the accuracy of the personal data;

the processing is unlawful and you object to the erasure of the personal data and request instead the restriction of the use of the personal data;

we no longer need the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you need them for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims; or

if you have objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) DSGVO and it is not yet clear whether our legitimate grounds override your grounds.

If the processing of personal data relating to you has been restricted, such data may - apart from being stored - only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defence 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 Union or a Member State.

If the restriction of processing has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, you will be informed by us before the restriction is lifted.

10.4 - Right to erasure

Obligation to delete

You may request that we erase personal data relating to you without undue delay and we are obliged to erase such data without undue delay if one of the following reasons applies:

The personal data concerning you is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.

You revoke your consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) or Art. 9 (2) (a) DSGVO and there is no other legal basis for the processing.

You object to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the GDPR.

The personal data concerning you have been processed unlawfully.

The erasure of the personal data concerning you is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which we are subject.

The personal data concerning you has been collected in relation to information society services offered pursuant to Article 8(1) of the GDPR.

Information to third parties

If we have made the personal data concerning you public and we are obliged to erase it pursuant to Article 17(1) of the GDPR, we shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, having regard to the available technology and the cost of implementation, to inform data controllers that process the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested them to erase all links to, or copies or replications of, that personal data.

Exceptions

The right to erasure does not apply to the extent that the processing is necessary

for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information;

for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing under Union or Member State law to which we are subject, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in us;

for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Art. 9(2)(h) and (i) and Art. 9(3) DSGVO;

for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89(1) DSGVO, insofar as the right referred to in section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously prejudice the achievement of the purposes of such processing; or

for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.

10.5 - Right to information

If you have exercised the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing against us, we are obliged to inform all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you has been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.

You have the right to be informed about these recipients.

10.6 - Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data relating to you that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data was provided, provided that

the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) a DSGVO or Art. 9 (2) a DSGVO or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 (1) b DSGVO and

the processing is carried out with the aid of automated procedures.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transferred directly from one controller to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible. This must not affect the freedoms and rights of other persons.

10.7 - Right of objection

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) DSGVO; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

We shall no longer process the personal data relating to you unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

If the personal data concerning you is processed for the purposes of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purposes of such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing.

If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.

You have the possibility, in connection with the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to exercise your right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

10.8 - Right to withdraw your consent under data protection law

You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.

Page Insights may be based on personal data collected in connection with a visit to or interaction of people with your Page and its content.

Facebook Ireland Limited ("Facebook Ireland") and Könitz Porzellan GmbH are jointly responsible for the processing of Insights data.

Facebook Ireland assumes primary responsibility under the GDPR for the processing of Insights Data and is responsible for complying with all obligations under the GDPR with respect to the processing of Insights Data (including but not limited to Articles 12 and 13 of the GDPR, Articles 15 to 22 of the GDPR and Articles 32 to 34 of the GDPR). In addition, Facebook Ireland will provide the substance of this Page Insights Supplement to data subjects.

Only Facebook Ireland will make and implement decisions regarding the processing of Insights Data. Facebook Ireland will decide, in its sole discretion, how to fulfil its obligations under this Page Insights Supplement. Facebook Ireland is the primary EU data controller for Insights data processing for all data controllers. The Irish Data Protection Commission is the lead supervisory authority for this processing.

Facebook Ireland is solely responsible for the processing of such personal data in connection with Page Insights that is not covered by this Page Insights Supplement.

If a data subject or a supervisory authority under the GDPR contacts the Page Operator in relation to the processing of Insights Data and the obligations assumed by Facebook Ireland under this Page Insights Supplement (each a "Request"), the Page Operator is obliged to provide Facebook Ireland with all relevant information without undue delay, but no later than within 7 calendar days.

The processing of the Insights data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b or f DSGVO.

Könitz Porzellan GmbH uses the technical platform and services of Facebook Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland for the information service offered here.

We would like to point out that you use this Facebook page and its functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of the interactive functions (e.g. commenting, sharing, rating). Alternatively, you can also access the information offered via this page on our website at [website address].

When you visit our Facebook page, Facebook collects, among other things, your IP address and other information that is present on your PC in the form of cookies. This information is used to provide us, as operators of the Facebook pages, with statistical information about the use of the Facebook page. Facebook provides more detailed information on this under 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. Facebook describes in general terms what information it receives and how it is used in its data usage guidelines. There you will also find information on how to contact Facebook and on the settings for advertisements. The data usage guidelines are available at the following link:

In what way Facebook uses data from visits to Facebook pages for its own purposes, to what extent 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 terminal 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 the end devices of its users (e.g. as part of the "login notification" function); this may enable Facebook to assign IP addresses to individual users.

If you are currently logged in to Facebook as a user, a cookie with your Facebook ID is stored on your end device. This enables Facebook to track 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 website pages and assign them to your Facebook profile. This data can be used to offer content or advertising tailored to you.

If you wish to avoid this, you should log out of Facebook or deactivate the "stay logged in" function, delete the cookies present on your device and close and restart your browser. This will delete Facebook information that can be used to directly identify you. This allows you to use our Facebook page without revealing your Facebook identifier. When you access interactive features of the page (Like, Comment, Share, Message, etc.), a Facebook login screen will appear. Once you have logged in, you will again be recognisable to Facebook as a specific user.

Information on how to manage or delete information about you can be found on the following Facebook support pages:
