Cookies
We use cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files which are stored on your system and which provide us with certain information.
We use transient and persistent cookies on our website. Transient cookies are deleted automatically when you close the browser. These comprise in particular session cookies. They store a so-called session ID which enables several queries from your browser to be allocated to one and the same session. This enables us to recognize your computer when you visit our website again. The session cookies are deleted when you log out from our website or close the browser. Persistent cookies are deleted automatically after expiry of a pre-defined validity which can vary, depending on the cookie used from time to time. You can delete the cookies at any time in the security settings of your browser.
You can set your browser as you wish, and you may, for instance, refuse to accept third-party cookies or even all cookies. However, please be aware that, if you do so, you might be unable to use all features and functions of this website.
We use cookies to render the use of our website and services offered there more comfortable and optimize user-friendliness. In addition, we use cookies to statistically document how our website is used and to analyse such user behaviour to optimize our website presentation and the services offered there. The cookies enable us, when you access our website again, to realize automatically that you have already visited our website before. These cookies are deleted automatically after a pre-defined period of time.
When you access our website, we show you a cookie information which refers to this Privacy Policy to make you aware that we use cookies. There you can also consent to the use of the cookies.
The legal basis for this is Art. 6 subs. 1 f) GDPR; our legitimate interest consists in the purposes mentioned above. If you consent to the use of cookies, the legal basis is Art. 6 subs. 1 a) GDPR.
Datacloud
In our data cloud, our data sheets, light distribution curves and other technical data available at item level can be stored and downloaded all at once. The use is possible without providing personal data. However, we also offer the possibility to create a personalized cover sheet. If you use this function and provide us with personal data, this data will only be used to create the personalised cover sheet and will be deleted afterwards. Personal data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 subs. 1 b) GDPR in order to fulfil the contract for the creation of the cover sheet.
Email contact
When you contact us via the email addresses we have indicated for such purpose, we will store the personal data you have transferred to us in order to answer your requests. The information you have provided to us might be stored in a Customer Relationship Management System ("CRM system") or similar software.
In the course of transporting or delivering your e-mail, log data is also generated on a regular basis, which, for example, also contains the IP address of the e-mail server you are using. These log data are necessary for ensuring the proper operation of our e-mail server and also serve as proof of server problems or security incidents.
The legal basis for this is Art. 6 subs. 1 f) GDPR; our legitimate interest consists in the purposes mentioned above. Where the email by which you contact us is aimed at contract conclusion or when you send us an email in the context of an existing contractual relationship, the legal basis is Art. 6 subs. 1 b) GDPR.
The data is deleted after the request has been finally settled unless we are required by law to retain the data or we need the data for contract performance. You can also at any time object to the processing when the processing is based on a legitimate interest.
Applicant data
When you transfer your application to us, we will process the transferred data to perform our (pre-) contractual duties in the context of the application procedure. If your application is successful, we further process the data for the purpose of handling and executing the employment relationship.
The legal basis is Art. 6 subs. 1 b) GDPR as well as § 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz - BDSG). If you voluntarily transfer to us special categories of personal data such as health data or religion, also Art. 9 subs. 2 b) GDPR serves as legal basis.
If your application is not successful, we will delete your data after six months at the latest.
Until that time, the data is stored to answer any possible queries relating to the application procedure and to comply with our documentation duties under the German Equal Treatment Act (Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz - AGG). If you withdraw your application, we will delete your data immediately.
