General information on data processing

Scope of the processing of personal data

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. As a general rule, we collect and use personal data of our users only insofar as this is necessary to provide a functional website and to present and provide our content and services. The collection and use of personal data of our users takes place only with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible and the processing of the data is permitted by law.

Legal bases for the collection and processing of your personal data

• Where we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations involving personal data, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.

• Where the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract.

• Where the processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject, Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

• Where vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

• Where the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override the former interest, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

Data deletion and storage period

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. Data may also be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. The data will also be deleted or blocked when a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned provisions expires, unless further storage of the data is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract.

Provision of the website and creation of log files

When you access and use our website, we collect the personal data that your browser automatically transmits to our server. This information is temporarily stored in a so-called log file. When you use our website, we collect the following data, which are technically necessary for us to display our website to you and to ensure stability and security:

• Information about the browser type and the version used

• The operating system of the user

• The Internet service provider of the user

• The IP address of the user

• Date and time of access

• Websites from which the user’s system accesses our website

• Websites accessed by the user’s system via our website

The data are also stored in the log files of our system. This does not include the IP addresses of the user or other data that enable the data to be assigned to a user. These data are not stored together with other personal data of the user.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the aforementioned data processing. The processing of the aforementioned data is necessary for the provision of a website and therefore serves the legitimate interest of our company.

Storage period

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary in order to deliver the website to the user’s computer. For this purpose, the user’s IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.

Use of cookies

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored locally in the cache of the browser being used. When a user accesses our website, a cookie may be stored on the user’s operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic string that enables the browser to be uniquely identified when the website is accessed again. Cookies do not become part of the PC system, cannot execute programs and cannot contain viruses.

We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some elements of our website require the accessing browser to be identified even after a page change. The use of cookies may be technically necessary or may take place for other purposes. Various cookies are used on our websites, which differ in type and function.

Session cookies and persistent cookies

A session cookie is a type of cookie that is deleted as soon as the user closes the browser after the current session (=session).

Persistent cookies are stored on the user’s device in order to provide login information, settings or preferences of a user when they next visit the website. They are intended to enable more convenient and faster use of the website. The storage of these cookies is limited to a specific period, after which they are automatically deleted. Please note that the storage period may vary depending on the cookie. You can also delete these cookies from your system earlier by using the usual functionality of your browser.

Technically necessary cookies

On our website, we use technically necessary cookies. These serve to ensure the functionality of the website by enabling basic functions such as page navigation and access to the website. The usage data collected by technically necessary cookies are not processed to create user profiles. We use so-called “session cookies”, which store a session ID that allows various requests from your browser to be assigned to the same session. Some elements of our website require the accessing browser to be identified even after a page change. Without these cookies, our website cannot function properly. The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We use session cookies to make the use of the website more attractive and effective. The session cookies are deleted as soon as you log out or close the browser.

Technically non-essential cookies

These cookies are used to make the use of the website more efficient and attractive. They are not necessary in order to use the basic functions of our website. The legal basis for this processing is your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Technically non-essential cookies are automatically deleted after a predefined period, which may vary depending on the cookie.

Preference cookies

Functional cookies store information such as the login name, language selection or fonts and provide enhanced and personalised functions for users of the website. All stored information is anonymised. Individual cookies can be deactivated or activated by the user at any time in the cookie settings.

Statistics cookies

Statistics cookies help website owners understand how visitors interact with websites by collecting and reporting information anonymously.

Marketing cookies

Advertising cookies from third-party providers make it possible to show you various offers that correspond to your interests. These cookies can be used to record users’ web activities over a longer period of time. You may encounter these cookies on various devices that you use.

Storage period

As soon as the data transmitted to us via cookies are no longer required to achieve the purposes described above, this information is deleted, in particular when the cookies are deactivated. Further storage may occur in individual cases if required by law.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

The legal basis for the processing of so-called technically necessary cookies is our legitimate interest in the processing of personal data pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. For technically non-essential cookies or so-called third-party cookies, we require your consent. If you have given us your consent to the use of cookies on the basis of a notice provided by us on the website (“cookie banner”), the lawfulness of the use is additionally based on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may withdraw this consent at any time for the future by deactivating the cookies in your browser settings.

Configuration of browser settings

You can manage cookie settings using the configuration options in your browser settings listed below. Most browsers are preset to accept cookies automatically. By changing the settings in your Internet browser, you can disable or restrict the transmission of cookies entirely. Cookies that have already been stored can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. However, please note that you may no longer be able to use all functions of our website in full if cookies are disabled on our website through your browser settings. In your browser settings, you can also delete cookies already stored in your browser or display the storage period. It is also possible to configure your browser so that you receive a notification before cookies are stored.

Where necessary, we have concluded the appropriate data processing agreements with the respective service providers.

Google Analytics 4 web analytics tool

Scope of the processing of personal data

This website uses Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics enables us to perform a statistical analysis of the use of our website. In particular, information about the device used, the browser, the operating system, the approximate location, pages viewed, length of stay, interactions and the origin of the website visit may be processed.

Google Analytics uses cookies or comparable technologies. The cookies used include, in particular, _ga and_ga_*.

Google states that IP addresses of users from the European Union are not logged or stored in Google Analytics. The IP address is processed to determine approximate location information and then discarded.

Purpose of data processing

The processing serves to statistically evaluate the use of our website. We use the information obtained in this way to better understand the use of our website, create reports on website activities and continuously improve our online offering.

Storage period

The storage period of the data collected via Google Analytics depends on the settings we have made in Google Analytics and the respective technical specifications of the service.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is your explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

Google Analytics is only used if you have consented to the corresponding data processing via the cookie banner. You may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future via the cookie settings on our website.

Further information on the processing of personal data by Google can be found in Google’s privacy information.

Data transfers to third countries

In the context of the use of individual services, personal data may be transferred to recipients outside the European Union or the European Economic Area.

This applies in particular to services of the Google group of companies. According to its own statements, Google LLC is certified under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.

Where personal data are transferred to appropriately certified recipients in the USA, the data transfer may be based on the adequacy decision of the European Commission pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR.

Where no adequacy decision is applicable to a specific data transfer, the transfer will only take place where appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR or another legal basis are in place.

Further information on possible transfers to third countries can be found under the respective services used in this privacy policy.

Recipients of personal data

Your personal data will only be disclosed by us to third parties if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, there is a legal obligation, you have expressly consented, or we have a legitimate interest in doing so.

Recipients or categories of recipients may include, in particular:

• IT and hosting service providers, who support us in the provision and secure operation of this website,

• Processors pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR (e.g. for maintenance, support, technical services),

• External consultants and service providers (e.g. tax advisors, lawyers), where necessary,

• Authorities and public bodies, where there is a legal obligation to disclose data,

• Plugins and providers of external services, where you have consented to this (e.g. LinkedIn).

No further disclosure of your personal data to third parties takes place.

Use of plugins

Our websites contain plugins from social networks. Please note that we have no influence over whether and to what extent the respective service providers collect personal data. The scope, purpose and storage periods of the respective data collection are not known to us. However, we point out that it must be assumed that at least the IP address and device-related information are used and collected via plugins. It is also possible that the respective service providers use cookies.

In the context of the use of plugins, personal data may be transferred to countries outside the EU / EEA, in particular to the USA. The USA is regarded by the European Court of Justice as a country with a level of data protection that is inadequate according to EU standards. Due to the absence of an adequacy decision and appropriate safeguards, there is in particular a risk that your data may be processed by US authorities for control and surveillance purposes, possibly without legal remedies. We therefore point out that there are currently no appropriate safeguards for data transfers to the USA.

For the scope and purpose of data collection by the respective service and the further processing and use of your data there, please refer directly to the privacy information on the website of the respective service. There you will also find further information about your respective rights and suitable setting options to protect your privacy. The plugins used are listed below.

The legal basis for the integration of plugins and the processing of personal data is your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing up to the time of withdrawal.

Use of Facebook plugins

Scope of the processing of personal data

On our website, the Facebook pixel of Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (hereinafter referred to as Facebook) is operated. To increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, the plugins are integrated into the website using a so-called “two-click solution”. This integration ensures that when a page of our website containing such plugins is accessed, no connection to the servers of the providing party is initially established. Only when you activate the plugin (by clicking) and thereby give your consent to the data transfer does your browser establish a direct connection to the servers of the providing party. The content of the plugin is then transmitted by the providing party directly to your browser and integrated into the page. Through this integration, Facebook receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook profile or are not currently logged in to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted by your browser directly to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there.

If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can directly associate your visit to our website with your Facebook profile. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the “Like” button, this information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. Depending on the settings of your Facebook profile, this information may also be published on your Facebook profile and displayed to your Facebook friends.

For the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook, as well as your related rights and setting options for protecting your privacy, please refer to Facebook’s privacy information: https://www.facebook.com/policy.php and https://www.facebook.com/help/186325668085084.

If you do not want Facebook to directly associate the information collected about your visit to our website with your Facebook profile, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website.

Use of Xing plugins

Our website uses plugins of the social network XING.com. XING is a service of XING AG, Dammtorstraße 29-32, 20354 Hamburg, Germany. To increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, the plugins are integrated into the website using a so-called “2-click solution”. This integration ensures that when a page of our website containing such plugins is accessed, no connection to the servers of the providing party is initially established. Only when you activate the plugin (by clicking) and thereby give your consent to the data transfer does your browser establish a direct connection to the servers of the providing party. The content of the plugin is then transmitted by the providing party directly to your browser and integrated into the page. This process causes XING to be informed which page of our website you are currently visiting. If you click the “XING Share Button” while logged in to your XING account, you can share content from our pages on your XING profile. This enables XING to associate the visit to our website with your user account. Please note that we have no influence over the data collected by XING or its specific scope.

Further information on the purpose and scope of processing by the plugin-providing party can be found in the privacy policies of the providing party. There you will also find further information on your related rights and setting options for protecting your privacy. The XING privacy policy can be accessed here: https://privacy.xing.com/de/datenschutzerklaerung.

If you do not want XING to directly associate the data collected via our website with your XING account, you must log out of XING before visiting our website.

Use of LinkedIn plugins

Our website uses plugins of the social network LinkedIn. LinkedIn is a service of LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. To increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, the plugins are integrated into the website using a so-called “2-click solution”. This integration ensures that when a page of our website containing such plugins is accessed, no connection to the servers of the providing party is initially established. Only when you activate the plugin (by clicking) and thereby give your consent to the data transfer does your browser establish a direct connection to the servers of the providing party. The content of the plugin is then transmitted by the providing party directly to your browser and integrated into the page. This process causes LinkedIn to be informed which page of our website you are currently visiting. If you click the LinkedIn “Recommend Button” while you are logged in to your LinkedIn account, you can link the content of our pages on your LinkedIn profile. This enables LinkedIn to associate the visit to our website with your LinkedIn user account. Please note that we have no influence over the data collected by LinkedIn or its specific scope.

Details on data collection by LinkedIn as well as your rights and setting options can be found in LinkedIn’s privacy information. You can find the relevant information at: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.

6. the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

7. all available information about the source of the data if the personal data were not collected from the data subject

8. the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling pursuant to Art. 22(1) and (4) GDPR and – at least in these cases – meaningful information about the logic involved as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject

9. You have the right to request information as to whether the personal data concerning you are transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. In this context, you may request to be informed about the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer

Right to rectification

You have a right to rectification and / or completion vis-à-vis the controller if the processed personal data concerning you are inaccurate or incomplete. The controller must carry out the rectification without undue delay.

Right to restriction of processing

Under the following conditions, you may request restriction of the processing of personal data concerning you:

1. if you contest the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data

2. the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and instead request restriction of the use of the personal data

3. the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you require them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims

4. if you have objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override your grounds

Where the processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, such data may – apart from storage – only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or a Member State.

Where the restriction of processing has been restricted under the above-mentioned conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

Right to erasure

Obligation to erase

You may request the controller to erase the personal data concerning you without undue delay, and the controller is obliged to erase such data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies:

1. The personal data concerning you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.

2. You withdraw your consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, and there is no other legal ground for the processing.

3. You object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(2) GDPR.

4. The personal data concerning you have been unlawfully processed.

5. The erasure of the personal data concerning you is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.

6. The personal data concerning you were collected in relation to the offer of information society services pursuant to Art. 8(1) GDPR.

Information to third parties

Where the controller has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged pursuant to Art. 17(1) GDPR to erase them, the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers processing the personal data that you as the data subject have requested the erasure by them of any links to those personal data, or copies or replications of those personal data.

Exceptions

The right to erasure does not apply to the extent that processing is necessary:

1. for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information

2. for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller

3. for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Art. 9(2)(h) and (i) as well as Art. 9(3) GDPR

4. for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, or statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89(1) GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in the section “Obligation to erase” is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing

5. for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims

Right to information

If you have exercised your right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing vis-à-vis the controller, the controller is obliged to communicate this rectification or erasure of data or restriction of processing to all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You have the right vis-à-vis the controller to be informed about those recipients.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to the controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data were provided, where the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR and the processing is carried out by automated means.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transmitted directly from one controller to another controller, where technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be adversely affected by this. The right to data portability does not apply to processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Right to object to processing

You have the right, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on those provisions.

The controller will no longer process the personal data concerning you unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Where the personal data concerning you are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purposes of such marketing; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for such purposes.

Right to withdraw consent under data protection law

You have the right to withdraw your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing – including profiling – which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision:

1. is necessary for entering into or performance of a contract between you and the controller

2. is authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests or

3. is based on your explicit consent

However, these decisions must not be based on special categories of personal data referred to in Art. 9(1) GDPR unless Art. 9(2)(a) or (g) applies and suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests have been implemented.

With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your point of view and to contest the decision.

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR. The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the progress and the outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR. If you believe that the processing of your data infringes data protection law or that your data protection rights have otherwise been violated, you may lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.

In Austria, this is the Austrian Data Protection Authority, Barichgasse 40-42, 1030 Vienna, telephone: +43 1 52 152-0, email: dsb@dsb.gv.at, website: https://www.dsb.gv.at/.

Hyperlinks to external websites

On our websites, we use so-called hyperlinks to the websites of other providers. When these hyperlinks are activated, you are redirected directly from one of our websites to the website(s) of other providers. You can recognise this, among other things, by the change in the URL. We cannot assume responsibility for the confidential handling of your data on third-party websites, as we have no influence over whether these companies comply with data protection provisions. Please inform yourself directly on those websites about how these companies handle your personal data.

Data security

We are committed to protecting your privacy and treating your personal data confidentially. In order to prevent manipulation, loss or misuse of the data stored by us, we take extensive technical and organisational security measures, which are regularly reviewed and adapted to technological developments.

However, we would like to point out that, due to the structure of the Internet, it is possible that the rules of data protection and the above-mentioned security measures may not be observed by other persons or institutions outside our area of responsibility. In particular, unencrypted data disclosed – e.g. if sent by email – may be read by third parties. We have no technical influence over this. It is the responsibility of the user to protect the data they provide against misuse by encryption or other means.

As a result of the further development of our services and websites as well as the content and services offered by us, it may become necessary to amend this privacy policy. We reserve the right to amend the privacy policy at any time with effect for the future. The current version is available at https://www.cargometer.com/datenschutz. We recommend that you reread the current privacy policy from time to time. While the privacy policy corresponds to common standards in terms of its level of detail, it does not fully meet the requirements of the GDPR: no specific storage period is stated for all processing activities.
