Matomo

Our website uses the open source web analysis service Matomo. Matomo uses cookies. If you have agreed to the storage of cookies, the information generated by the cookie about the use of our website will be stored on our server. The IP address is anonymized before storage.

Matomo cookies are stored on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1(f) GDPR. The website operator has a justified interest in the anonymous analysis of user behaviour in order to optimise both his website and his advertising.

The information generated by the cookie regarding the use of this website will not be disclosed to third parties.

YouTube

This website incorporates videos from YouTube. YouTube is operated by Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. We use YouTube in advanced privacy mode. According to YouTube, this mode means that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they view the video. However, the transfer of data to YouTube partners is not necessarily excluded by the extended data protection mode. YouTube connects to the Google DoubleClick network whether or not you're watching a video.

As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection will be established to the YouTube servers. This will tell the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged in to your YouTube account, you can allow YouTube to directly associate your surfing behaviour with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

In addition, YouTube may store various cookies on your device after you start a video. YouTube can use these cookies to obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve usability and prevent fraud. The cookies remain on your device until you delete them.

If necessary, after the start of a YouTube video, further data processing operations may be triggered over which we have no control.

YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1(f) GDPR. If a corresponding consent has been requested (e.g. a consent to the storage of cookies), the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1(a) GDPR; the consent can be revoked at any time.

For more information about YouTube's privacy practices and how we treat user information, please see Google's privacy policy at: policies.google.com/privacy

4. Advertising and personalisation

In order to adapt the type and frequency of online advertising to the interests of our website visitors – and to be able to evaluate the benefits of this advertising – we use the services of the service providers listed in these data protection notices on our online platform, which use cookies for this purpose.

To protect your rights and interests, however, we only use pseudonymous data in the form of temporary cookies. The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1(f) GDPR. You can refuse the storage of cookies. If your pseudonymous data is processed for advertising purposes, you have the right to object to such processing at any time, with effect for the future, pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, even after prior consent has been given. If you object to the previously approved data processing in this respect on the basis of legitimate interests, a corresponding cookie will be set or a setting will be stored on your terminal device which documents your revocation or objection. In the browser, the objection or revocation applies until you delete the cookie in the respective browser.

Facebook Pixel

Our website uses features of Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (Facebook). One of these functions is the "Facebook pixel", in which a so-called tracking pixel is inserted on our website. When you visit our website, the pixel-code is used to establish a connection between your browser and the Facebook server, provided you have agreed to the use of cookies. This gives Facebook, among other things, the information that our website has been visited by your end-user device. As a Facebook user, Facebook can associate visiting our pages with your user account. We receive only limited knowledge of the content of the transmitted data and the use of Facebook. We only receive the choice of which groups of Facebook users (such as age, interests) our advertising should be displayed. As soon as you access Facebook pixels from your browser, Facebook can understand the benefits of a Facebook ad, for example, whether it has led to an online purchase. This allows the effectiveness of Facebook ads to be measured for statistical and market research purposes. Further information can be found in Facebook's data protection declaration at www.facebook.com/about/privacy/

Legal basis for data processing Art. 6 para. 1(f) GDPR.

5. Processing of data on other websites

We would also like to be available to you as a contact outside our online platform and are therefore represented on third-party social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram.

When using these portals, you have previously read the respective terms of use and have been informed about the data processing including the data transmission in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1(b) GDPR or Art. 6 Para. 1(a) GDPR to us.

In addition, if you provide us with information, you are giving us your consent within the scope of Art. 6 para. 1(a) GDPR.

In particular, we use the information received to analyse the enquiry and response of our company’s representation on the portals. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1(f) GDPR. Here we only use pseudonymous data and compile anonymous statistics. The data is deleted if it is no longer required for the purpose for which it is intended, and if there are no legal obligations to retain it. If the data is required for other, legally permissible purposes, their processing will be restricted, i.e. the data will be blocked and not processed for any other purposes.

Facebook Fanpage

As the operator of our fanpage on the Facebook platform, we are jointly responsible with Facebook for the processing of your personal data.

Through our fanpage, we can contact Facebook users and provide information regarding Captrain topics. For this purpose, we collect and process your personal data on the fanpage that is addressed to us. We also do this by means of the Facebook service "Facebook Insights". Through the Facebook Insights tool, Facebook provides us with statistically processed and anonymized information about individuals who are connected to, or visit, our site in order to analyse this data, including for market and opinion research purposes, to customise our presentation and offers in a targeted manner. We are not able to personally identify you through Facebook Insights or any of the associated analytics. In order to generate the required statistics, Facebook Insights stores cookies on the end devices of Facebook users. These cookies store this required data. There is no obligation on your part to provide your personal data via cookies. As a Facebook user, you have agreed to the processing and storage of personal data by Facebook upon registration.

The legal basis for the collection and processing of your personal data carried out by Facebook for us via the Facebook Insights tool for the aforementioned statistical purposes is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1(f) GDPR.

Facebook processes the collection and evaluation of personal data and is able to establish personal references based on this data.

Which data is collected by Facebook and for which additional purposes it is processed by Facebook is beyond our knowledge. Facebook is responsible for further data processing.

Facebook can make a data transfer to the USA. Facebook has, however, submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, which promotes data protection. Further information can be found at www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework

6. Consent and revocation

If we have obtained your data protection consent for certain procedures, you have the right to revoke this consent at any time. The revocation can be sent to us in writing or by e-mail to the address stated above under No. 1. The legality of the data processing up to the revocation remains unaffected. After revocation, your personal data may be further processed, insofar as this is permissible on a legal basis other than consent, e.g. to fulfil a contract, legitimate interests or a legal obligation of our company.


7. Storage location and duration, automatic deletion

Unless otherwise stated within the framework of this data protection declaration, personal data stored by Captrain will be deleted if it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was intended and if there are no legal obligations to retain it. If the data is required for other, legally permissible purposes, its processing will be restricted, i.e. the data will be blocked and not processed for other purposes.

8. Your rights

At no cost to you, you have the right to receive information concerning your data. In addition, you have the right to the correction, deletion or restriction of the processing of your personal data as well as the transfer thereof. You may also object to the processing of your personal data. You can send us your enquiries to the address provided in No. 1 above.
