PRIVACY POLICY Part 1

We take the protection of your personal data very seriously. For this reason, we naturally always handle your personal data in accordance with statutory data protection regulations. MARTOR KG have appointed an external qualified and trustworthy data protection controller towards this end. The UIMC Dr. Voßbein GmbH & Co KG has been commissioned to exercise the relevant external duties.

In the text below, our aim is to inform you about the processing of your personal data.

Collection and Processing of Personal Data
As a general principle, you can benefit from our online services without disclosing your identity. If we ask for personal data (such as a name, address or email address) on our website – for example within contact forms or during the subscription or registration process – this is done on a voluntary basis. We use such information for our own business purposes (such as shipping of requested materials/information).

If you have any questions, we offer you the opportunity to contact us using a form provided on the website. There, the data marked as obligatory fields are necessary for allocating and responding to the enquiry. Any further details can be provided voluntarily. Data processing, undertaken in order to facilitate your making contact with us, is carried out in  accordance with Article 6, paragraph 1, sentence 1, point a of the GDPR on the basis of your voluntarily given consent.

The personal data collected by us in connection with use of the contact form are automatically deleted once your request has been processed and following the expiration of the fiscal and commercial law-related retention periods.

You may at any time withdraw consent given in a specific context – for example, in order that we might send you interesting information from our company – without giving reasons and with future effect. To do this, you can use the above contact form or the means mentioned in this email.

The personal data we collect when you use the contact form will be deleted after we have processed your enquiry and after expiry of any retention obligations under tax and commercial law. For newsletter subscriptions, your data will be retained until you unsubscribe from the newsletter.

Any consent given, for example, for receiving a newsletter or other interesting information from our company, can always be revoked with effect for the future without having to state any reason. Revocation is possible by using the contact form above or the channels mentioned in this mailing. To unsubscribe from the newsletter, send an email to datenschutz@martor.de.

Competitions
Participation in one of our competitions is separate from any other data processing carried out by us. Participation in a competition is voluntary. We only process the data that we require from you for the purposes of the competition. The data will then be deleted provided that you do not have any other contractual relationship with us. Any queries about competitions can be sent to datenschutz@martor.de.

We pass on your personal data to third parties only when this is legally permissible [such as on the basis of Article 6 of the GDPR] and/or necessary. To some degree, we utilise service providers for legally stipulated commissioned data processing; for example, the website is hosted by Netigo GmbH Düsseldorf and maintained by Netigo GmbH Düsseldorf. In this context, we retain full responsibility for the processing of the data.

Depending on the place where the enquirer is located, our services may be provided locally via our relevant local sales partner. To facilitate this, the data required for the handling of the contact request are passed to the responsible sales partner.
