The responsible service provider in the EU is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”). (2) Scope of processing Google Analytics uses so-called cookies, text files that are stored on your computer and that allow your use of the website to be analyzed. The information about your use of this website generated by the cookie is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. We use the “demographic characteristics” function of Google Analytics. This allows reports to be generated that contain information about the age, gender and interests of site visitors. This data originates from interest-based advertising by Google as well as visitor data from third parties. This data cannot be assigned to any particular person. We use the function “anonymizeIP” (so-called IP-Masking). Activation of IP anonymization on this website means that your IP address will first be abbreviated by Google within the member states of the European Union or in other signatory states of the agreement through the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional circumstances will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there. The IP address transferred by your browser within the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other data from Google. Among other data, the following pieces of information are collected during your website visit: * The pages that you call up, i.e. your “click path” * Achievement of “website goals” (conversions, e.g. newsletter subscriptions, downloads, sales) * Your user behavior (e.g. clicks, dwell time, bounce rate) * Your approximate location (region) * Your IP address (in abbreviated form) * Technical information about your browser and the device used by you (e.g. language setting, screen resolution) * Your Internet service provider * The referrer URL (the website or advertising medium via which you arrived at this website) (3) Purpose of the data processing Google uses this information on our behalf to evaluate the use of our website by users, to compile reports about activities within this website and to provide us with further services related to the use of this website and Internet usage. (4) Recipient The recipient of the data and processor of the order is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. We have signed an order processing agreement for this purpose with Google. Google LLC, with headquarters in California, USA, and, where appropriate, US authorities may access the data stored by Google. (5) Transfer to third countries A transfer of data in the USA cannot be ruled out. (6) Storage period The data sent by us and linked to cookies will be deleted automatically after 14 months. Data that has reached the end of its storage limit is automatically deleted once a month. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google as well as the processing of such data by Google by a. not consenting to the setting of the cookie or b. downloading and installing the browser add-on here to deactivate Google Analytics. You can also prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly. However, if you configure your browser to refuse all cookies, this may lead to limited functionality on this and other websites. (7) Legal basis and right of revocation The legal basis for this data processing is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a GDPR. You may revoke this consent at any time with effect for the future by accessing your cookie settings https://bowe.com/en/cookies/ and changing your selection. You can also prevent the storage of cookies by generally rejecting them in the cookie banner on our website or through the appropriate setting in your browser software. Users can also prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie and related to their use of the website by Google as well as the processing of such data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin at: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en. (8) You can obtain further information about the Google Analytics terms of use and Google data protection here: https://marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/terms/us/ and at https://policies.google.com/?hl=en. § 10 GOOGLE WEB FONTS We use “Google Web Fonts” from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland on our website. This allows us to use external fonts. Use in offline mode means that no data is transferred to Google as a third-party supplier. § 11 LINKS TO OTHER WEB PAGES This data protection declaration shall only apply to our own Internet presence. The web pages forming this presence may contain links to the web pages of third parties (e.g. social media). Our data protection declaration shall not extend to these web pages. We recommend that when you leave our web presence, you carefully read the data protection guidelines of every web page that gathers personal data. § 12 ONLINE PRESENCE IN SOCIAL MEDIA We maintain online social media presences in order to communicate with customers, interested parties and users who are active there and to be able to inform them about our services. The terms of business and data protection guidelines of the relevant operator shall apply to interactions via such networks or platforms. Unless something to the contrary is stated in our data protection declaration, we process the data of users provided that they communicate with us via social media, for example, post on our online presences or send us messages. This data protection declaration shall apply to our online presences on Google MyBusiness, LinkedIn, Twitter, Xing, YouTube. § 13 INTEGRATION OF YOUTUBE VIDEOS (1) We have also integrated YouTube videos of the third-party supplier Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, in our online offer. These are stored at http://www.youtube.com and are accessible directly from our website. YouTube places cookies when videos are played in order to gather information about visitors to its website. These videos are all covered by the “expanded data protection mode”, which means that no information about you as the user will be transferred to YouTube if you do not play the videos or have not previously given your consent for this. Only once you have given consent will the data specified in the following be transferred. We have no control over the resulting data transfers. (2) Visiting the website provides YouTube with the information that you have accessed the relevant page on our website. In addition, the data detailed in § 3 of this policy is made available to them. This information is shared irrespective of whether YouTube offers a user account that you are logged in to or not. If you are logged in to Google, your data is directly associated with your account. If you do not want your YouTube profile to be associated in this way, you must first log out before activating the button. This also establishes a connection with the Google DoubleClick network. If you start the video this might result in further data processing actions. (3) YouTube stores your data as a user profile and uses it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the tailored management of its website. Such analysis is completed (even for users who are not logged in) to deliver targeted advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of such user profiles by contacting YouTube. (4) The legal basis for the playing of YouTube videos is the granting of your consent in accordance with art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. (5) Further information on the scope and purpose of data collection and its processing by YouTube is available in the privacy policy. Please refer to this policy for further details on your rights and options to protect your privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en. § 14 LINKEDIN SALES NAVIGATOR We use the LinkedIn Sales Navigator of LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company to directly address and actively get in touch with contacts.

BÖWE SYSTEC GmbH and Facebook are joint controllers within the meaning of Art. 26 GDPR with regard to the processing of data via this Facebook page. A corresponding contract on joint processing exists between the two controllers. The essence of the contract on the distribution of the obligation to comply with the requirements of the GDPR is available here: https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/page_controller_addendum. (2) General information on data processing We would also 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). 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 at the following link: http://facebook.com/help/pages/insights. The data collected about you in this context is processed by Facebook 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 options for advertisements. The data usage guidelines are available at the following link: https://facebook.com/privacy/policy/. 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 end device is transmitted to Facebook. Furthermore, cookies may be stored on your terminal device, which are used for advertising purposes, among other things. According to information from Facebook, such cookies are deleted after 90 days. Details on the storage period can be found in the aforementioned links and the cookie policy (https://facebook.com/policies/cookies/). You can access further information on the specific data we collect about you as part of our Facebook page via the following URL: https://facebook.com/legal/terms/information_about_page_insights_data. If you are currently logged in to Facebook as a user, a cookie with your Facebook ID is located 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. Via Facebook buttons embedded in websites, it is possible for Facebook to record your visits to these websites and assign them to your Facebook profile. The same applies to the use of so-called Facebook Pixels. Based on this data, content or advertising can be offered 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. In this way, Facebook information through which you can be directly identified will be deleted. This will allow 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. After any login, you will again be recognizable to Facebook as a specific user. For information on how to manage or delete information about you, please visit the following Facebook support pages: https://facebook.com/privacy/policy/. (3) Data processing by BÖWE SYSTEC GmbH We use this Facebook page on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 letters b) and f) GDPR (contract initiation/execution and protection of legitimate interests). The following legitimate interests are pursued, among others: * Building and strengthening customer loyalty by placing targeted advertisements and communicating with users of the Facebook network * Notifying interested users about new products, offers, competitions or other news or important news * Providing status information and technical documents * Responding to informal inquiries of all kinds The Facebook page is also used to contact potential applicants or to be contacted by them. Insofar as this is the case, the processing is carried out on the basis of Section 26 Federal Data Protection Act. Further information on data protection for applicants can be found at https://karriere.bowe.com/datenschutz-fuer-bewerber.html. We do not collect and process any data from your use of our service beyond this. Your personal data will be deleted by us immediately as soon as the data is no longer required for the fulfillment of contractual and legal obligations. Personal data will be stored at least as long as necessary for the fulfillment of contractual obligations and the exercise of contractual rights. This period may extend beyond the actual contractual period, as the data may still be relevant after the end of the contract within the framework of the limitation periods. In addition, deletion can only take place once any retention periods under tax and commercial law have expired. If you apply to us via our Facebook page, we will delete your data six months after receipt of your application if no employment relationship is established. In the latter case, the storage period is governed by our data protection provisions for employees. § 16 FACEBOOK PIXEL The website uses the tracking and remarketing function "Facebook Pixel" of Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Meta"). Users of the website can thus be shown interest-based advertisements when visiting the social network "Facebook" as well as websites that also use the procedure (including "Instagram"). In this way, we pursue the interest of displaying relevant advertising to you in order to make your visit to our website more interesting and use the data for marketing and targeting purposes. The pixel represents an analysis tool through which user behavior is tracked and linked to user data on Facebook. It is logged when certain actions are taken on our website. Such actions are, for example, adding an item to the shopping cart or completing a purchase. We do not have any influence on the other processing of the data that is collected by Facebook due to the use of the function. Due to the use of the function, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Facebook server. This is not pseudonymized or anonymous user data. According to our knowledge, Facebook receives the information that you have accessed the subpage of our website or clicked on the ad. Facebook can assign this information to your account if you are registered with Facebook. If you are not registered or logged in, it is still possible that Facebook processes the IP address and other identifiers. For logged-in users, it is possible to deactivate the function at https://www.facebook.com/settings/?tab=ads#_. We process the data on the basis of your consent declared when calling up our website in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 letter a) GDPR. If necessary, data may be transferred to third countries on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 49 para. 1 sentence 1 letter a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time via the cookie settings on this website.
