Privacy policy

FERNBACH’s Privacy Policy covers the collection, use and disclosure of personal information that FERNBACH could collect whenever you interact with the company or its partners, for example when you visit the website, purchase products or services from FERNBACH or contact our sales and support staff.

Please take a moment to review our data protection guidelines, as this section contains important information about our policies, what information we collect, how we protect your information, and with whom we share it.

Our principles

We take the protection of your personal data very seriously and comply with the valid data protection laws, in particular with the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our approach can be summarised in one single sentence: Personal information is only processed if the person concerned has consented, if this information is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract or if the GDPR or another law permits or prescribes the processing of this information. We will never disclose your data to third parties without your prior consent. Moreover, we have defined the following principles:

  • We will continue to invest in high quality security measures and do everything in our power to protect users' personal data.
  • We will not pass on users’ personal data (including e-mail addresses) to third parties unless you have given your prior consent.
  • We ensure at all times that contractors with whom we cooperate in relation to the website and other services (for example hosting providers) are subject to strict contractual obligations. They may only process data on our behalf and in accordance with our policies and guidelines and may not use it for any other independent purposes.

Data processing on websites

In principle, personal data are collected to the extent that is technically necessary. Under no circumstances will the data collected be passed on to third parties without the consent of the parties concerned. The following declarations will present an overview of how FERNBACH will guarantee this protection and what kind of data is collected, processed or used on the websites and for what purpose.

Logging

FERNBACH automatically collects and stores in its server log files some of the information usually transmitted by the browser, provided that your browser provides this. FERNBACH cannot assign this data to specific persons. These data are not combined with other data sources.

Web analytics

On our websites, data are collected and stored in anonymous form exclusively for optimisation purposes using web controlling technologies. FERNBACH uses Google Analytics and Mouseflow. These data are used to create user profiles under a pseudonym on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 f of the GDPR.

Cookies may also be used for this purpose, but they collect and store data exclusively in a pseudonymous form. The data will not be used to personally identify visitors to these websites and will not be combined with data about the bearer of the pseudonym.

You have the option of configuring your browser so that you are informed as soon as cookies are to be placed in order to reject them if necessary. Furthermore, you can prevent cookies from being installed by setting your web browser accordingly. As a result, it may not be possible to use all the functions of these websites in full. No personal data are stored. A user’s IP address is made unidentifiable and does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about the visitors to this website.

Users who do not wish to participate in conversion tracking can deactivate the Mouseflow cookie via their browser at https://mouseflow.com/opt-out/.

Users who do not wish to participate in conversion tracking (Google Analytics) can deactivate the Google Analytics cookie via this link.
