Privacy policy

  The responsible body in terms of data protection laws is: Bricon GmbH Eisenbahnstraße 100 78573 Wurmlingen Germany

Collection of general information

By using our website, you consent to the collection, processing and use of data as described below. Our website can generally be visited without registration. Data such as pages called up or names of files called up, date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes without this data being directly related to your person. Personal data, in particular name, address or e-mail address are collected as far as possible on a voluntary basis. The data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent. We expressly point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. communication by e-mail) has security gaps and cannot be completely protected against access by third parties. The use of the contact data of our imprint for commercial advertising is expressly not desired, unless we had previously given our written consent or a business relationship already exists. The provider and all persons named on this website hereby object to any commercial use and disclosure of their data.

Personal data

You can visit our website without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (such as name, address or e-mail address) is collected on our pages, this is done, as far as possible, on a voluntary basis. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent. If a contractual relationship is to be established between you and us, or its content is to be developed or changed, or if you send us an inquiry, we collect and use personal data from you to the extent necessary for these purposes (inventory data). We collect, process and use personal data to the extent necessary to enable you to use the website (usage data). All personal data will only be stored as long as it is necessary for the stated purpose (processing your request or processing a contract). In this context, retention periods under tax and commercial law are taken into account. By order of the competent authorities, we may provide information about this data (inventory data) in individual cases, insofar as this is necessary for the purposes of criminal prosecution, to avert danger, to fulfill the statutory tasks of the constitutional protection authorities or the Military Counter-Intelligence Service or to enforce intellectual property rights.

Registration on our website / contact form

When registering via the contact page, some personal data is collected, such as name, address, contact and communication data such as telephone number and e-mail address. Of course, we will also provide you with information about the personal data we have stored about you at any time. We will also be pleased to correct or delete this data at your request, provided that there are no legal storage obligations to the contrary. To contact us in this context, please use the contact details given at the end of this privacy policy.  

Social media plugins

Social plugins from the providers listed below are used on our website. You can recognize the plugins by the fact that they are marked with the corresponding logo. Information, which may also include personal data, may be sent to the service provider via these plugins and may be used by the service provider. We do not collect any personal data ourselves using the social plugins or about their use. We have no influence on what data a plugin collects and how it is used by the provider. Currently, it must be assumed that a direct connection to the provider's services is established and that at least your IP address and device-related information is collected and used. There is also the possibility that the service providers will try to store cookies on the computer used. Please refer to the data protection information of the respective service provider to find out which specific data is collected and how it is used. We have integrated the social media buttons of the following companies on our website: Facebook plugin Instagram plugin LinkedIn plugin XING Plugin The use of social media buttons is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR. The underlying promotional purpose is to be regarded as a legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR.

Our activities in social networks

So that we can also communicate with you in social networks and inform you about our services, we are represented there with our own pages. If you visit one of our social media pages, we are jointly responsible with the provider of the respective social media platform within the meaning of Art. 26 GDPR with regard to the processing operations triggered thereby which concern personal data. We are not the original provider of these pages, but only use them within the scope of the options offered to us by the respective providers. As a precaution, we therefore point out that your data may also be processed outside the European Union or the European Economic Area. Use may therefore have data protection risks for you, as it may be more difficult to protect your rights, e.g. to information, deletion, objection, etc., and the processing in the social networks is often carried out directly for advertising purposes or to analyze user behavior by the providers, without this being able to be influenced by us. If usage profiles are created by the provider, cookies are often used or the usage behavior is directly assigned to your own member profile of the social networks (if you are logged in here). The described processing operations of personal data are carried out in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest and the legitimate interest of the respective provider in order to be able to communicate with you in a timely manner or to inform you about our services. If you have to give your consent to data processing as a user with the respective providers, the legal basis refers to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR in conjunction with Art. 7 GDPR. Since we do not have access to the providers' data stocks, we would like to point out that it is best to assert your rights (e.g. to information, correction, deletion, etc.) directly with the respective provider. Further information on the processing of your data in the social networks and the possibility of making use of your right of objection or revocation (so-called opt-out), we have listed below at the respective provider of social networks used by us:
