1. Data protection
Welcome to our website, and thank you for your interest in our offers. Protecting your personal data is of the utmost importance to us. In this Privacy Policy, we explain what personal data we collect, how we use it, the purpose and legal basis for doing so, and the rights and remedies available to you.
Our Privacy Policy for the use of our website and the HBJO-Online data protection policy do not apply to your activities on social media websites or other providers' websites that you access through links on our website. Please refer to those providers' websites for their data protection terms.
2. Collection and processing of personal data
a. When you visit our website, we record certain information about the browser and operating system you use, the date and time of your visit, the access status (for example, whether you were able to view a page or received an error message), your use of website features, any keywords you entered, how often you visit individual pages, the names of the files accessed, the amount of data transferred, the web page from which you reached our website and the web page you visit from our website, either by clicking on links on our pages or by typing a domain directly into the address field of the same browser tab (or window) in which you opened our website.
b. We only record other personal data if you provide it to us, for example when registering, filling out a contact form, taking part in a survey or contest, or for the performance of a contract, and in all these cases only where we are permitted to do so based on your consent or applicable legal requirements (you will find more information on this in the section "Legal basis for processing").
c. You are under no legal or contractual obligation to provide your personal data. However, some features of our website may depend on it. In any case, if you do not provide your personal data, some features may be unavailable or only partially available.
3. Purpose of use
a. We use the data collected when you visit our website to make it easier to use and to protect our IT systems from attacks and other unlawful activities.
b. Where you provide us with other personal data, for example when registering, filling out a contact form, taking part in a survey or contest, or for the performance of a contract, we will use it for customer management and, where necessary, for the processing and invoicing of any business transactions.
4. Use of usage data; use of analytics tools
a. We want to tailor the content of our website as closely as possible to your interests and thereby improve our offer for you. To understand the preferences of our website visitors and identify the most popular sections, we use the Google Analytics analytics tool.
b. If this analytics tool is used, data may be transferred to servers in the United States for processing. Please note that, according to the European Union, the United States does not provide an "adequate level of protection" for the processing of personal data as required by EU standards. For certain companies, however, this level of protection can be ensured through certification under the "Data Privacy Framework".
c. If you do not want us to collect and analyze information about your visits to our website using the analytics tool mentioned, you can object at any time with effect for the future ("opt-out").
We will honor your objection by placing an opt-out cookie in your browser. This cookie is used solely to record your objection. Please note that, for technical reasons, an opt-out cookie only works in the browser in which it was set. If you delete your cookies or use a different browser or device, you will need to opt out again.

6. Legal basis for processing
