The data is exclusively used for administration, optimisation of the Internet offer and for processing inquiries.
The IP address can be considered personal data, because, under certain conditions, it is possible to obtain the identity of the owner of the Internet access used by using the information of the respective Internet provider.
The IP address is only analysed in case of attacks against our Internet infrastructure. In this case, we have an authorised interest in terms of Art. 6 Para. 1 f) GDPR to process the IP address. This authorised interest arises from the need to defend against an attack on the Internet infrastructure, to investigate the source of the attack in order to bring proceedings against the responsible person under criminal and civil law, and to effectively prevent further attacks.
The IP address is deleted if we can exclude the possibility that it has been used in an attack against our Internet infrastructure did not occur. This deletion occurs regularly after seven days.
Furthermore, we record from which domains our web visitors come. We also analyse this data in order to recognise trends and statistics, but we subsequently delete this data again.

In addition, this website contains links to other websites. The legal owner of this site shall not be held responsible for the data protection provisions or the content of these websites. If you have questions or comments regarding our data protection practice, then please contact us under datenschutz@veka.com.

Surfing on our website with the statement of personal data
If you voluntarily provide us with personal data (e.g. name, address or email address) on our website or within the scope of registration for the VEKA AG-Partner area, then this data shall not be transferred to third parties without your express permission or legal authorisation. If you register for the VEKA AG-Partner area, then a contract comes into effect between us regarding the storage and provision of the respective profile.
In this case, we process your data based on Article 6 b) of the GDPR or the fulfilment of a contract existing between us, or acc. Article 6 a) GDPR based on the consent provided by you. The processing occurs for the fulfilment of contractual performance, payment processing, for the delivery of contractually ordered products and services, for transmission of your address data to logistics companies for the delivery of goods, and for sending interesting information regarding products and actions. Your data is transferred within our premises to order processing or persons involved in decision-making. A transfer to third parties over and above this which is not covered by legislative necessity shall only occur subject to your express consent. Automatic decision-making does not occur.
We only process your data if this is required for the fulfilment of our contract or the applicable legal regulations or due to the reason for your data transfer. We do not independently delete the personal data stored by you in the VEKA AG-Partner area. However, you have the possibility to change individual data in your profile at any time. We shall undertake complete deletion of the personal data stored within the scope of your profile on request via email (stating your user name) to datenschutz@veka.com, if the continued storage of this data is not permitted due to further statutory exemptions. Business documents are stored according to the statutory retention periods and are subsequently deleted compliant with data protection.

Your rights:
According to the GDPR, you have the following rights:
+ Right to information regarding the processing of your data

The processing purposes
The categories of your personal data being processed
The recipients or categories of recipients to whom your personal data has been disclosed or is still disclosed
If possible, the planned duration for which your personal data will be stored, or if this is not possible, the criteria for the determination of this duration
If your personal data has not been collected from you yourself, all available information regarding the origin of the data
The existence of automated decision-making including profiling according to Article 22 of the GDPR and — at least in these cases — pertinent information regarding the logic involved and the scope and aspired effects of such processing for you.
We will provide you with a copy of the personal data which is the subject of the processing. If we have substantiated doubts, then we will request additional information for confirmation of the identity of the person affected.
+ Right of correction
You have the right to request from us the correction of incorrect personal data pertaining to you. Under consideration of the purposes of the processing, you have the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data — also by way of a supplementary declaration.
+ Right of deletion
Deletion of your personal data occurs if you assert a claim for deletion and no statutory retention rights or obligations contradict this. Furthermore, we always delete your personal data if the data is no longer required for the fulfilment of the purpose associated with the storage or if the storage is not permissible for other legal reasons, and if the deletion does not contradict the statutory retention periods.
+ Right of limitation of processing
You are entitled to request a limitation of the processing of your personal data if the personal data is not accurate, and this for the duration which enables VEKA AG to check the accuracy of the personal data. If the processing is unlawful and you refuse the deletion of the personal data, and instead request the limitation of the use of your personal data from us, then we shall comply with your request. The deletion of data also does not occur if we require it for the assertion, exercising or defence of our own legal claims, or if you have objected to the processing acc. Article 21 Paragraph 1 GDPR, provided it is not yet established whether the entitled reasons given by VEKA AG outweigh your reasons.
+ Right to appeal against processing
You have the right to appeal at any time against the processing of your personal data which occurs due to Art. 6 of the GDPR. VEKA AG shall not process your personal data any more in case of an appeal, unless we can verify compelling legitimate reasons for the processing which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the affected persons, or the processing serves the assertion, exercising or defence of legal claims.
+ Right of data portability
You have the right to receive the personal data pertaining to you which you have provided to us in a structured, conventional and machine-readable format, and to transmit this data to another responsible person without obstruction by us. The prerequisite is that the processing is based on consent acc. Art. 6 or Art. 9 of the GDPR or on a contract, and that the processing occurs with the assistance of an automated procedure. Furthermore, you have the right to personal data being directly transmitted by VEKA AG to another responsible agency, provided this is technically feasible.
+ Right of revocation of your stated consent with effect for the future
A revocation of your stated consent may occur at any time with effect for the future. No fees are incurred in case of a revocation, an objection or information. Please direct the revocation via email to info@veka.com.

Should you be of the opinion that the processing of your personal data infringes on data protection provisions, then you have the right, acc. Article 77 GDPR, to file a complaint with the supervisory authority responsible for your federal state at any time.
