Privacy policy
of EIKONA Media GmbH

Preamble

We are pleased about your visit on the website of our company. Information protection and in particular data protection is of great importance to our management. In principle, you can use this website without providing any personal data. Should you disclose data to us in connection with the processing described below, we will treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the legal data protection regulations of the European Union and the Federal Republic of Germany as well as this data protection declaration.

As the data controller, EIKONA Media GmbH has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the complete protection of personal data processed via this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, you as the person concerned are free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone or mail.

Definitions

EIKONA Media GmbH's data protection declaration is based on the terms used by the European legislator when the basic data protection regulation (GDPR) was issued. The detailed definitions can be found in Art. 4 GDPR. Essentially, these are the following terms, described here in simplified form:

a) Personal data: This is all information available to us as a responsible person to determine you as a natural person. (e.g. name, address, e-mail, telephone number, IP address etc.)

b) Person concerned: This is you as a natural person, if we have identified you or can identify you.

c) Processing: Processing is any collection, storage, further processing, forwarding, archiving and deletion of data. It is irrelevant whether the process is carried out automatically with the aid of IT systems or whether it is carried out manually (e.g. by letter).

d) Restriction of processing: Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting their future processing.

e) Profiling: Profiling is any type of automated processing of your data, which consists in using these data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to you. In particular, to analyse or predict aspects relating to your job performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, behaviour, whereabouts or change of location.

f) Pseudonymization: This is a process to identify your personal data. In the following, only this identifier will be used and without the original key or a "reference database" this pseudonym cannot be resolved (e.g. allocation of a customer number).

g) Responsible Person: The person responsible or responsible for processing is EIKONA Media GmbH with whom you have a contractual relationship. It is crucial that we can decide independently on the processing methods and means.

h) Contract processor: A processor is a company that has been commissioned by EIKONA Media GmbH to assist you in the collection, processing, storage, forwarding or deletion of your data. Usually these are IT service providers, but also waste disposal companies that are commissioned, for example, with the destruction of documents.

i) Consent: Consent is any expression of will given by you for a specific individual case. You will be fully informed about what you are consenting to.

You have the right to request the deletion of your personal data at any time. We may be required by law to retain your data for a certain period of time (e.g. 6 years for business mail or 10 years for tax-related documents).

Processing operations

In this section we will describe the data processing that is connected with our internet offer or that applies to a general business relationship between you and our company.

The following legal bases serve us for the processing of your data. Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves our company as a legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose.

If the processing of your data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations required for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same shall apply to such processing operations which are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services.

If our company is subject to a legal obligation which makes the processing of personal data necessary, for example to fulfil tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR.

In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the person concerned or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our company was injured and his name, age, health insurance details or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. In this case the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR.

Finally, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the above legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, unless the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of you outweigh the processing. We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator.

a) Website processing
We operate this website and collect various data in this context.

You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

(1) Google Analytics
If you have given us your consent in advance, we will use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (https://www.google.com/intl/en/about/) (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, hereinafter "Google") for the purpose of demand-oriented design and ongoing optimisation of our pages. In this context, pseudonymous user profiles are created and cookies (see 6. a website) are used. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website such as

  • Browser type/version,
  • operating system,
  • Referrer URL (the previously visited page),
  • Host name of the accessing computer (IP address),

    are transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The information is used to evaluate the use of the website, to compile reports on the website activities and to provide further services connected with the use of the website and the Internet for the purposes of market research and the design of these Internet pages in line with requirements. This information may also be transferred to third parties if required by law or if third parties process this data on our behalf. Under no circumstances will your IP address be merged with other data from Google. The IP addresses are made anonymous so that an assignment is not possible (IP masking). We would like to point out that the same level of protection under data protection law cannot be guaranteed in the USA as within the EU. This is due in particular to the lack of an adequacy decision by the EU Commission and the legal situation in the USA, which grants security authorities far-reaching powers of access to personal data. There are also no legal means by which EU citizens can defend themselves. The data processing is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR, which you can give us with the help of the Consent Banner. You can revoke this consent at any time by calling up the settings of the consent banner and editing them accordingly.

b) Contact / Inquiries

In the following we describe the possibilities of contacting the companies and employees of our company.

Contact form If you send us enquiries via the contact form, your details from the enquiry form including the contact data you provided there will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. These data will not be passed on without your consent.

The processing of the data entered in the contact form thus takes place in the first step on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. For this purpose, an informal e-mail notification to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation. In further correspondence, there may be a change of legality (e.g. if you request an offer), then your data will be processed in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit b GDPR.

The data entered by you in the contact form will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected by this.

E-Mail / Phone inquiry
If you send us inquiries by e-mail or telephone, your data from the e-mail or conversation, including the contact data you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of the data provided in the e-mail or telephone conversation is therefore based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. For this purpose, an informal communication by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out up to the point of revocation remains unaffected by the revocation. In further correspondence, there may be a change in legality (e.g. if it is business correspondence), in which case your data will be processed in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

The data provided by you in the mail or from the telephone conversation will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent for storage or the purpose for which the data was stored ceases to apply (e.g. after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected by this.

c) Data processing for the fulfilment of contracts

If you have entered into a business relationship with our company, e.g. if you have placed an order with us, the data processing will be carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. All data necessary to initiate, fulfill or complete this order, such as contact data, object data, service providers involved, photo documentation, plans, orders for goods, etc., may be collected and processed by us without separate consent.

Should it be necessary to call in a subcontractor (e.g. other IT service providers, special software suppliers) to fulfill the contract with you, we may also pass on your data to this subcontractor. We guarantee that we have committed our subcontractors to the same strict data protection requirements that you can expect from us.

In individual cases, it may happen that we obtain a company information from Creditrefom to initiate an order. If the data obtained in this way has consequences for the order, we will clarify this with you separately.

In rare cases, we will also check individuals. For this purpose, our company randomly checks your creditworthiness when concluding contracts and, in certain cases where there is a legitimate interest, also with existing customers. For this purpose, we work together with Creditreform Boniversum GmbH, Hellersbergstraße 11, 41460 Neuss, from which we receive the necessary data. For this purpose, we transmit your name and contact details to Creditreform Boniversum GmbH. The information according to article 14 of the EU data protection basic regulation regarding data processing at Creditreform Boniversum GmbH can be found here: https://www.boniversum.de/eu-dsgvo/?lang=en

The data related to orders are subject to different retention periods. For example, general business letters must be proven for 6 years and tax law documents for 10 years. We will only pass on your data within our company to the extent necessary, if this is justified by the subject of the order.

d) Handling of applications Documents

Applications received by us will first be forwarded to LUNISA trust & match GmbH, Industriestr. 2b, D-97332 Volkach and processed there on behalf of EIKONA Media GmbH.

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data for application purposes is § 26 BDSG.

Data is only collected and processed for this purpose to the extent required by law. Insofar as other data may not be directly required for the establishment of the employment relationship, the processing is based on a legitimate interest of the company in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

A legitimate interest may arise, for example, from internal organizational and administrative purposes, for the protection of the company's facilities, installations and assets as well as data processing installations and data. A processing of your data is permitted here if the protection of your interests, basic rights and fundamental freedoms does not prevail.

In individual cases we can also obtain your consent to the processing or transmission of your data. Your consent is voluntary in these cases and can be revoked by you at any time in the future, unless otherwise agreed.

The application documents will be transmitted within the group of companies. The respective specialist department is thus involved in the application process. The specialist departments are instructed to treat application documents in strict confidence. The documents will not be transferred to a third country.

In this context, LUNISA trust & match GmbH reserves the right to contact you in order to obtain your consent to review your application documents for other vacancies that LUNISA trust & match GmbH is entrusted with filling. Your consent is voluntary and can be revoked by you at any time without giving reasons. This has no influence on your application to EIKONA Media GmbH.

EIKONA Media GmbH is the competent and responsible body for the collection, processing and use of your personal data.

Your personal data will only be stored as long as knowledge of the data is necessary for the above-mentioned purposes or as long as legal or contractual retention regulations exist. Application documents are usually deleted 6 months after the application process is completed.

It is possible to store your data for a longer period if you give us your consent. During this extended period, EIKONA Media GmbH may contact you about new job offers.

e) Use of feedback options

We offer you the opportunity to give us feedback on our services and our website. You have the following options for this:

The data processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a GDPR on the basis of your voluntarily given consent, which you grant us by submitting your review.
