PRIVACY POLICY

2.4. Google Maps – Third Party Website

On our website, we use Google Maps (API) from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”) to display our location and provide directions. Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive maps to visually display geographical information. By using this service, our location is shown to you and a possible approach is facilitated.

Already when calling up those sub-pages in which the map of Google Maps is integrated, information about the use of our website is transmitted to Google servers and stored there; this may also result in a transmission to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA (see also section 4 links to third-party websites). This involves at least the following data:

• Date and time of the visit to the website in question,
• Internet address or URL of the website called up,
• IP address, (starting) address entered as part of route planning.

This is done regardless of whether you have a user account with Google, via which you may be logged in. If you are logged in to Google, however, your data will be assigned directly to your account.

If you do not want the assignment with your profile at Google, you must log out before activating our map (Google Maps). Google stores your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and evaluates them.

We have no influence on the further processing and use of the data by Google and can therefore not assume any responsibility for this. If you do not want Google to collect, process or use data about you via our website, you can disable “JavaScript” in your browser settings. In this case, however, you will not be able to use the map display.

The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Google, as well as your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy in connection with the use of Google Maps can be found on the Google website (“Google Privacy Policy”): https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/

Insofar as personal data is also processed during the described operations, the processing is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest follows from showing where our company is located.

You have the right to object. You can send or inform us of your objection at any time (e.g. by e-mail to: datenschutz@beckmann-elektronik.de).

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected.

The recipient of the data is our server host, who works for us within the framework of an order data agreement.
