3.         Purpose, Scope and Processing of Personal Data

a)        Technical necessary data

When visiting our website, we collect the data, which are technically necessary to display the website to you as well as to provide our contents and services to you.

This involves personal data, which are transmitted automatically by your browser to our server. Our website cannot be accessed without using the following data:

·      IP address

·      information about type of browser and the used version

·      operating system and interface (operating system of the computer you used to access the website or the application)

·      date and time of your request/website (application) access

·      time zone offset from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)

·      content of the request (information about which specific web page you visited)

·      HTTP status code

·      transferred data volume

·      website requesting access

·      language and version of the browser software

b)        Facebook

Our websites use Facebook's "Website Custom Audiences" remarketing tool ("Conversion Pixel"). The use of this pixel allows us to present interest-based advertisements to visitors to our websites or other websites that also use the Facebook Conversion Pixel. When you access our pages, your web browser automatically establishes a direct connection to the Facebook server. If you are logged in parallel to visiting our websites on Facebook or save Facebook cookies on your computer, Facebook can assign the visit of our website to your Facebook account. If you are not registered or logged in to Facebook, there is still the possibility that Facebook collects and stores your IP address and other identification features.

c)         Google Maps

This website uses Google Maps. This allows us to display interactive maps directly on the website and enables you to conveniently use the map function. When you visit the website, Google receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding sub-page of our website. The data listed in the section "Processing of data on the website/application and legal basis for processing" are transferred as well. This happens regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged in with or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your information will be directly associated with your account. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data as user profiles and uses them for purposes of advertising, market research and/or customizing the design of its website. Such analysis takes place in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide customized advertising and to inform other users of the social media network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, but to do so you must contact Google.

4.         Legal Basis for Processing of Personal Data

The processing and the temporary storage of the personal data and log files are based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 (f) GDPR.

5.         Storage Period and Deletion

The log files are stored for seven days and then deleted. The storage is necessary for security reasons e. g. to investigate misuse.

6.         Transfer to Third Country

Within the scope of the previously mentioned designated purpose according to Section 4 of this Privacy Notice the personal data are transmitted to the Republic of Korea, which is not a so called safe country under GDPR. The transmission is necessary because the following service provider hosts our EUKO website in the Republic of Korea. The personal data collected on our website are therefore stored on the server of that service provider.
