Privacy Policy
Generally
As the operator of this website and as a company, we come into contact with your personal data. This refers to all data that reveals something about you and with which you can be identified. In this privacy policy, we would like to explain to you how, for what purpose, and on what legal basis we process your data.
The following entity is responsible for data processing on this website and within our company:
ORNITEC GmbH
Main Street 5
23715 Bosau
Phone: +4945279739050
Email: info@ornitec.de
General information
SSL or TLS encryption
When you enter your data on websites, place online orders, or send emails over the internet, you must always assume that unauthorized third parties may access your data. Complete protection against such access is impossible. However, we make every effort to protect your data as best as possible and to close security gaps wherever possible.
An important security mechanism is the SSL/TLS encryption of our website, which ensures that data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize the encryption by the padlock icon before the entered web address in your browser and by the fact that our web address begins with https:// and not with http://.
How longdo we store your data?
In some sections of this privacy policy, we inform you about how long we, or the companies that process your data on our behalf, store your data. If no such information is provided, we store your data until the purpose of the data processing no longer applies, you object to the data processing, or you withdraw your consent to the data processing.
In the event of an objection or revocation, we may continue to process your data if at least one of the following conditions is met:
We have compelling legitimate grounds for continuing the data processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms (only in case of objection to the data processing; if the objection is directed against direct marketing, we cannot provide compelling legitimate grounds).
Data processing is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims (this does not apply if your objection is directed against direct marketing).
We are legally obligated to retain your data.
In this case, we will delete your data as soon as the requirement(s) no longer apply.
Data transfer to the USA
We also use tools on our website from companies that transfer your data to the USA, where it is stored and potentially further processed. This is particularly important for you because your data does not enjoy the same level of protection in the USA as it does within the EU, where the General Data ProtectionRegulation (GDPR) applies. For example, US companies are obligated to disclose personal data to security authorities without you, as the data subject, having any legal recourse. Therefore, it is possible that US authorities (e.g., intelligence agencies) may process, analyze, and permanently store your data on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no control over these processing activities.
Your rights
Objection todata processing
If you read in this privacy policy that we have legitimate interests in processing your data and therefore base this processing on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, you have the right to object to this processing pursuant to Article 21 GDPR. This also applies to profiling carried out on the basis of the aforementioned provision. The prerequisite is that you provide reasons for your objection that arise from your particular situation. No justification is required if the objection is directed against the use of your data for direct marketing.
The consequence of your objection is that we are no longer permitted to process your data. This does not apply if one of the following conditions is met:
-
We can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms.
-
The processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.
-
The exceptions do not apply if your objection is directed against direct marketing or against profiling related to it.
Further rights
Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are based on your consent. You give this consent, for example, by ticking the appropriate box in online forms before submitting them, or by allowing certain cookies when you visit our website. You can withdraw your consent at any time without giving reasons (Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR). From the moment of withdrawal, we are no longer permitted to process your data. The only exception is if we are legally obligated to retain the data for a certain period of time. Such retention periods exist, in particular, under tax and commercial law.
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
If you believe that we have violated the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority pursuant to Article 77 GDPR. You can contact a supervisory authority in the Member State of your habitual residence, your place of work, or the place where the alleged infringement took place. This right to lodge a complaint exists alongside any administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to data portability
Data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract must be provided to you or a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format upon your request. We can only transfer the data to another controller if this is technically feasible.
Right to data access, erasure and rectification
According to Article 15 of the GDPR, you have the right to obtain information free of charge about which personal data we have stored about you, where the data comes from, to whom we transfer the data, and for what purpose it is stored. If the data is incorrect, you have the right to rectification (Article 16 GDPR), and under the conditions of Article 17 GDPR, you may request that we delete the data.
Right to restriction of processing
In certain situations, you can request, pursuant to Article 18 of the GDPR, that we restrict the processing of your data. Apart from storage, the data may then only be processed as follows:
-
with your consent
-
for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims
-
to protect the rights of another natural or legal person
-
for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or of a Member State
The right to restrict processing exists in the following situations:
-
You have disputed the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, and we need time to verify this. You have the right to retain this data for the duration of the verification process.
-
Your personal data is being processed unlawfully or was processed unlawfully in the past. In this case, you have the right to have your data deleted as an alternative to having it processed unlawfully.
-
We no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims. In this case, you have the right to have the data deleted as an alternative to its processing.
-
You have objected to the processing of your personal data pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, and now your interests and ours must be weighed against each other. This right to object exists until the outcome of this balancing process is determined.

Our website places cookies on your device. These are small text files used for various purposes. Some cookies are technically necessary for the website to function at all (essential cookies).

Server log files
Server log files record all requests and accesses to our website and capture error messages. They also include personal data, in particular your IP address. However, this is anonymized by the provider after a short time, so we cannot associate the data with you personally. The data is automatically transmitted from your browser to our provider.

Browser type and version

Where can you find more information about data protection at YouTube?
https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de
How do we process your data?
You can watch YouTube videos on our website. Google, as the provider of YouTube, collects and stores certain information about you. However, since we use YouTube in enhanced privacy mode, this only happens when you start a video. Specifically, the following occurs:
-
Google's servers are notified which of our pages have been visited from your device. If you are logged into your YouTube account while browsing, Google can directly associate your browsing behavior with your personal profile. If you do not want this, you must log out of your YouTube account before continuing to browse the internet.
-
Google obtains information about visitors to our website via cookies, device fingerprinting, or similar recognition technologies. Based on this information, the company then compiles video statistics, makes its application more attractive to users, and prevents fraud.
-
Your data may also be processed beyond this scope. However, we are not aware of the details. Furthermore, we have no control over this processing.
Even if you don't play a YouTube video on our website, Google establishes a connection to its DoubleClick network and potentially to other partners. Therefore, enhanced privacy mode does not mean that Google does not process any of your data when you visit our website.
On what legal basis do we process your data?
We integrate YouTube videos to make our website, services, and offers more appealing. This is in our legitimate interest as a company and therefore lawful under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
If you have consented to data processing, we will process your data exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time. From the moment of withdrawal, we may no longer process your data.

We use fonts from the US company Google on our website. We have installed these fonts locally, so no connection to Google's servers is established when you visit our website.
