Privacy Policy

1.0 Introduction
Welcome to Comte Galvanotechnik GmbH & Co. KG and Comte Metallveredelung GmbH & Co. KG. We are pleased that you are visiting our websites and thank you for your interest in our company.

1.1 Personal Data
The protection of your privacy and personal data when using our websites is very important to us. Therefore, we strictly adhere to the rules of data protection laws. We only collect personal data to the extent necessary for technical purposes.
The following explanations provide insight into how we ensure this protection and which data are collected for which purposes.

1.2 No Disclosure of Personal Data
We do not disclose your personal data, including your home address and email address, to third parties. Exceptions to this are only our service partners whom we may need to process your orders, purchases, and offers.
These include our logistics partners, our house bank, or Schufa. In these cases, we forward the data in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Data Protection Act.

1.2.1 Collection and Processing of Personal Data in the Case of Applications and Web Usage
In individual cases, such as when applying for a job vacancy, we correspond using your personal data.
When you access our website via telecommunications services, communication-related data (e.g., internet protocol address) or usage-related information (e.g., details about the start and duration of use and the telecommunications services you have used) are automatically generated by technical means. These may possibly allow conclusions to be drawn about personal data.
As far as the collection, processing, and use of your communication- or usage-related information is necessary, it is subject to the legal regulations of data protection.

1.2.2 Rights to Information, Correction, Blocking, and Deletion of Your Data
Information, correction, blocking, and deletion of data:
The scope of the transmitted data is limited to a minimum. Within the framework of the Federal Data Protection Act, you have the right at any time to request information, correction, blocking, or deletion of your stored data. If legal, contractual, commercial, or tax-related retention periods or reasons prevent deletion, the data will be blocked instead of being deleted.
Please contact us if desired via email: info@p-comte.de or phone: +49 4271 9389 0.

1.2.3 Automatically Collected Non-Personal Data
When you access our website, occasional automatic (i.e., non-registered) information is collected that is not attributed to a specific person (e.g., the internet browser and operating system used; the domain name of the website from which you came; number of visits; average length of stay; pages accessed). We use this information to determine the attractiveness of our website and to improve its performance and content.

1.3 External Links and Third-Party Content
The content of this domain was created with the utmost care. However, we do not guarantee the timeliness and completeness of the content. We are only responsible for our own content, not for third-party content. For further information, you will find numerous links on our website referring to third-party websites. We have checked all external links for illegal content, and at the time of checking, no such content was identifiable. There is no general obligation to monitor and verify third-party content. Once we become aware of illegal content, we will immediately review it and, if necessary, remove it without delay. External links always open in a new browser window and are clearly identifiable by the following features: (external link), http:// or https://.
According to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as of May 25, 2018.

1.4 Scope
This privacy policy is intended to inform users of this website in accordance with the Federal Data Protection Act and the Telemedia Act about the type, scope, and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the website operator Comte Galvanotechnik GmbH & Co. KG.
The website operator takes your privacy very seriously and treats your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal regulations.
Please note that data transmission on the Internet can generally have security vulnerabilities. Full protection against access by third parties is not feasible.

1.5.1 Access Data
The website operator or page provider collects data about accesses to the site and stores them as “server log files.” The following data is logged in this way:
Visited website
Time at the time of access
Amount of data sent in bytes
Source/reference from which you accessed the site
Used browser
Used operating system
Used IP address
The collected data is used solely for statistical evaluations and to improve the website. However, the website operator reserves the right to subsequently check the server log files if there are specific indications of unlawful use.

1.5.2 Security
Comte Galvanotechnik - Metallveredelung GmbH & Co. KG implements technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data against accidental or unlawful deletion, alteration, loss, and against accidental transmission or unauthorized access.

1.6 Cookies
This website uses cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Your browser accesses these files. The use of cookies increases the user-friendliness and security of this website. Common browsers offer the option to disable cookies.
Note: It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if you make the corresponding settings.

1.7 Handling of Personal Data
The website operator collects, uses, and shares your personal data only if this is permitted within the legal framework or if you consent to the data collection.
Personal data includes all information that can be used to identify your person and that can be traced back to you – for example, your name, email address, and telephone number.

1.7.1 Handling of Contact Data
If you contact the website operator using the contact options provided, your information will be stored so that it can be used to process and respond to your inquiry. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.

1.7.2 Handling of Comments and Posts
If you leave a post or comment on this website, your IP address will be stored. This serves the security of the website operator: if your text violates the law, they want to be able to trace your identity.

1.8 Subscriptions
You have the option to subscribe to the entire website as well as to follow-up comments on your post. You will receive an email to confirm your email address. No further data is collected beyond this. The stored data will not be shared with third parties. You can unsubscribe from a subscription at any time.

1.9 Google Analytics
This website uses the service "Google Analytics," which is offered by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA), to analyze website usage by users. The service uses "cookies" – text files that are stored on your device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

This website uses IP anonymization. The IP address of users is shortened within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. Due to this shortening, the personal reference of your IP address is no longer applicable. As part of the agreement on commissioned data processing, which the website operators have concluded with Google Inc., Google uses the collected information to evaluate website usage and website activity and to provide services related to internet usage.

You have the option to prevent the storage of cookies on your device by making the appropriate settings in your browser. It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies.

Furthermore, you can prevent the information collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to Google Inc. and used by Google Inc. by using a browser plugin. The following link leads you to the corresponding plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

Alternatively, by clicking on this link (IMPORTANT! Insert opt-out link), you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you within this website. By clicking the link above, you download an “opt-out cookie.” Your browser must generally allow the storage of cookies for this to work. If you regularly delete your cookies, you will need to click the link again each time you visit this website.

You can find more information about data usage by Google Inc. here: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de

1.9.1 Use of Social Media Plugins (Facebook/Google+)
This website uses Facebook social plugins, which are operated by Facebook Inc. (1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA). These integrations are recognizable by the Facebook logo or by terms such as “Like,” “Gefällt mir,” or “Share,” in Facebook's colors (blue and white). Information about all Facebook plugins can be found at the following link: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/

The plugin creates a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook servers. The website operator has no influence on the nature and scope of the data that the plugin transmits to the servers of Facebook Inc. Information on this can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/help/186325668085084

The plugin informs Facebook Inc. that you, as a user, have visited this website. It is possible that your IP address will be stored. If you are logged into your Facebook account while visiting this website, this information will be linked to your Facebook account.

If you use the plugin's functions – for example by sharing or liking a post – the corresponding information will also be transmitted to Facebook Inc.

If you want to prevent Facebook Inc. from linking this data to your Facebook account, please log out of Facebook before visiting this website.

This website also uses the “+1” button from Google Plus (now only partially active and used in connection with Google My Business by business customers; inactive for private users). It is operated by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). When you visit a page containing the “+1” button, a direct connection is established between your browser and the Google servers. The website operator has no influence on the nature and scope of the data that the plugin transmits to Google Inc.'s servers. If you click the “+1” button while logged into Google+, you share the contents of the page on your public profile.

According to Google Inc., personal data is only collected when you click the button. For logged-in Google users, the IP address is also stored, among other things. If you want to prevent Google Inc. from storing this data and linking it to your account, please log out of Google before visiting this website.

Information about the “+1” button can be found here: https://developers.google.com/+/web/buttons-policy

1.9.2 Extended Privacy Policy for Social Media (YouTube)
As the operator of this social media channel, Comte Galvanotechnik GmbH & Co. KG is also responsible within the meaning of data protection law. This means that Comte Galvanotechnik - Metallveredelung GmbH & Co. KG must also ensure that your data is processed lawfully through this channel and that you can exercise your rights regarding your data with Comte Galvanotechnik GmbH & Co. KG (Art. 26 GDPR).
Data about you may be collected through this social media channel via cookies, regardless of whether you have a YouTube account or not. Cookies are data packets that mark the user's telecommunications or other devices with a specific identifier. They are regularly stored on the user's device when visiting a YouTube channel, including our channel.
The information stored in the cookies is received, recorded, and processed by YouTube, particularly when the user visits YouTube services, services provided by other members of the corporate group, and services from other companies that use YouTube services. In addition, other entities such as YouTube partners or even third parties may use cookies on YouTube services to provide services to advertisers on YouTube.
More detailed information on the use of cookies by YouTube can be found in their privacy policy. Cookies are primarily used to show visitors of YouTube channels personalized advertising. This occurs by showing users on our YouTube channel ads from YouTube’s advertising partners whose websites the user has previously visited.
Additionally, cookies allow statistics to be compiled on the use of a social media profile so that YouTube and Comte Galvanotechnik - Metallveredelung GmbH & Co. KG can understand how a social media channel is used. The collection of your data through cookies in the context of using the social media channel is neither legally nor contractually required. It is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Therefore, there is no obligation to transmit your data to YouTube. However, failure to transmit your data (e.g., by blocking cookies) means that we may not be able to offer you our social media channel, or only to a limited extent.
The website operator Comte Galvanotechnik GmbH & Co. KG operates this YouTube channel to present itself to users of YouTube and other interested persons who visit this YouTube channel, and to communicate with them. The processing of users’ personal data is based on the legitimate interest of Comte Galvanotechnik - Metallveredelung GmbH & Co. KG in an optimized corporate presentation (Art. 6 para. 1 GDPR).
Your data may be transmitted via cookies to Google Inc. in the USA. Google is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield, meaning that Google is required to maintain a data protection standard for users in Europe that the European Commission has deemed comparable to the European standard.
You can request from Comte Galvanotechnik - Metallveredelung GmbH & Co. KG information regarding your personal data, in the form of a copy of the personal data and related information, provision in a structured and machine-readable format, correction in case of inaccuracies, deletion particularly in the event of withdrawal of your consent or the fulfillment of its purpose, restriction of processing in certain cases, and object at any time to the use of your data for direct marketing purposes.
YouTube users can influence the extent to which their user behavior is captured when visiting our YouTube channel under the advertising preferences settings. Further options are available via the YouTube settings or the objection rights form.

Further details on the use of cookies by YouTube can be found in their privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de

1.9.3 Extended Privacy Policy for Social Media (Instagram)
The website operator Comte Galvanotechnik GmbH & Co. KG uses the technical platform and services of Instagram Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA, 94025, USA, for the information service offered.

We would like to point out that you use this Instagram page and its functions under your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of interactive features (such as commenting or rating).

When visiting our Instagram page, Instagram collects, among other things, your IP address as well as other information stored in cookies on your PC. This information is used to provide us, as operators of the Instagram pages, with statistical information about the use of the Instagram page. The data collected about you in this context is processed by Instagram Inc. and may be transferred to countries outside the European Union. What information Instagram receives and how it is used is described by Instagram in general terms in its privacy policies. These policies also provide information about how to contact Instagram and about settings for advertisements. The privacy policies are available at the following link: https://help.instagram.com/519522125107875

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

When accessing an Instagram page, the IP address assigned to your device is transmitted to Instagram. According to Instagram, this IP address is anonymized (for “German” IP addresses) and deleted after 90 days. Instagram also stores information about its users’ devices (for example, as part of the “login notification” feature); under certain circumstances, Instagram may be able to associate IP addresses with individual users.

If you are currently logged in to Instagram as a user, a cookie with your Instagram identifier is stored on your device. This enables Instagram to track that you have visited this page and how you used it. This also applies to all other Instagram pages. Through embedded Instagram buttons on websites, Instagram can record your visits to these websites and assign them to your Instagram profile. Based on this data, content or advertising can be tailored to you.

If you want to avoid this, you should log out of Instagram or deactivate the “stay logged in” feature, delete the cookies present on your device, and restart your browser. In this way, Instagram information that can directly identify you will be deleted. This allows you to use our Instagram page without revealing your Instagram identifier. If you access interactive functions of the page (likes, comments, messages, etc.), an Instagram login screen will appear. After any login, you will again be recognizable to Instagram as a specific user.

Information on how to manage or delete data held about you can be found in the Instagram Help section.

As the provider of this information service, we do not collect or process any other data from your use of our service. This privacy policy is available in its current version under the “Data Policy” section on the respective Instagram page.
