Privacy policy

Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below we inform you in detail about the handling of your data regarding your visit to our website (https://start.jvm.com).

This privacy policy applies to data processing by:

Controller:
Jung von Matt HAVEL GmbH

2. General notes and mandatory information

a) Data protection and information on storage

When you visit our website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains what information we collect and how we use it. It also explains how we collect the data and for what purpose.

We would like to point out that data transmission on the internet (e.g. communication by e-mail) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Unless a more specific storage period is stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for the data processing no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the data will be deleted after these reasons no longer apply.

b) Information on data transfer to the US and other non-EU countries 

Among other things, we use tools of companies located in the United States or other from a data protection perspective non-secure non-EU countries. If these tools are active, your personal data may potentially be transferred to these non-EU countries and may be processed there. We must point out that in these countries, a data protection level that is comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed. For instance, U.S. enterprises are under a mandate to release personal data to the security agencies and you as the data subject do not have any litigation options to defend yourself in court. Hence, it cannot be ruled out that U.S. agencies or authorities may process, analyze, and permanently archive your personal data for surveillance purposes. We have no control over these processing activities but will keep approriate technical and organizational measures in place in order to minimize risks as much as possible.

c) SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or requests that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.

d) External hosting of the website

We host our website with Webflow. The provider is Webflow, Inc., 398 11th Street, 2nd Floor, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA (hereinafter referred to as “Webflow”).

With the help of Sendinblue, it is possible for us to analyze our newsletter campaigns. For example, we can see whether a newsletter message was opened and which links, if any, were clicked.

For example, we can see whether you have made a purchase after clicking on the newsletter. Sendinblue also allows us to subdivide ("cluster") the newsletter recipients according to various categories. For example, newsletter recipients can be subdivided according to age, gender or place of residence. This way, the newsletter can be better adapted to the respective target groups.

The processing of these data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR. Your request is related to the execution of a contract or is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In the case of a request for call back, the processing also might be based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the requests addressed to us according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR if your request is not related to any pre-contractual measures. The information you have entered into the contact form shall remain with us until you ask us to eradicate the data or if the purpose for which the information is being archived no longer exists (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions - in particular legal retention periods - remain unaffected.
