Data protection statement

Data protection: Your right - and our obligation

You can rely on the protection and security of your personal data: Safeguarding your privacy in the processing of personal data is an important concern for RGM Holding GmbH, which we take into account in all our business processes.

We therefore wish to explain our basic rules for handling personal data here. You will also find these notes and any further details which may be relevant to the collection, processing and use of personal data wherever we request such information from you.

Information we collect

You can use almost the entire Internet presentation of RGM Holding GmbH without us needing any personal data from you. Only a few of the offers and services which you find on our pages require the entry of personal data for their use.

When you use the RGM Holding GmbH website, the Internet servers (web servers) at RGM Holding GmbH automatically record and evaluate technical access data. These data cannot however be assigned to any particular person, and the individual users remain anonymous.

Technical access data

These data include for example information on the Internet browser and operating system used, the domain name of the website from which our Internet pages are visited, the average duration spent at our site, and the information pages called up at our website. These data are transmitted to our web server by your Internet browser when you call up individual Internet pages.

In addition, we use cookies in some areas of our Internet presentation. Cookies are small data files which a web server can send to your computer. These cookies allow your computer to be identified during your visit to our website or can make the use of our Internet pages easier for you. You have the opportunity to set up your Internet browser in such a way that you are informed of the acceptance or rejection of cookies. You can find further details, for example, in your Internet browser's help system.

We use this technical access information to make continuous improvements to the attractiveness and usability of our Internet pages and their contents, and to detect potential technical problems in our Internet presentation.

Personal data

We only collect, process and use personal data when you give us this information of your own volition.

This can be the case, for example, in the context of an enquiry, a survey, or if you wish us to make contact with you. This also happens as a rule in the course of placing an order.

We also need personal data from you when you want to use certain Internet-based services - where offered - on RGM Holding GmbH's web pages. These services can be, for example, newsletters or forums. If you decide to make use of such an offer, you will find further notes and information on the nature and scope of the data required for use of the service under the offer concerned.

Protection of children's privacy in the Internet

The protection of children who use Internet services is of special concern to RGM Holding GmbH. RGM Holding GmbH therefore advises all parents and carers to make children familiar with procedures for safe and responsible handling of personal data in the Internet.

Children should not transmit any personal data to RGM Holding GmbH without the express consent of their parents or carers.

How we use your data

RGM Holding GmbH only collects, processes and uses all the personal data accumulated during your visits to our Internet presentation strictly in accordance with the current regulations on the protection of personal data.

We only use the personal data for the purposes mentioned in this data protection statement (for instance to process enquiries or for the use of Internet services). Over and above this, we only collect, process or use personal data when it is necessary to safeguard the legitimate commercial interests of RGM Holding GmbH.

RGM Holding GmbH will not pass on the personal data you make available to us to third parties without your express consent.

Information, alteration and deletion of your data

In accordance with current law, you can enquire in writing at any time whether personal data concerning yourself are stored with us, and which data these are. We will then send you a corresponding reply. Please address your enquiries to our Data Protection Representative. You can also arrange for him to alter or delete your data.

The security of your data

The data you provide to RGM Holding GmbH are protected by suitable technical and organisational means with the aim of securing your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction, access by unauthorised persons or unauthorised disclosure to third parties. Our security measures are continuously checked and improved in the course of technological developments and in accordance with our organisational capabilities. Further information can also be found under Legal notes.
