The data collected may include (1) the types and versions of browsers used, (2) the operating system used by the computer accessing the website, (3) the referrer, being the web page referring the accessing system to our website, (4) the sub-websites of our website which are accessed by a system accessing our website, (5) the date and time of accessing our website, (6) the Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) other similar data and information serving to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

  When using this general data and information, DACHSER will not draw any conclusions concerning your person and will not conduct profiling. Rather, we need this information to ensure the content of the European Food Network website is correctly displayed, to optimize the European Food Network website content and website advertising, to guarantee permanent functionality of our information technology systems and European Food Network website technology, and to provide prosecuting authorities with information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyberattack.

  These data and information are evaluated statistically by DACHSER for the purpose of improving data protection and data security at our company. We store the anonymous data from the server logfiles separately from any personal data provided by you. The lawful basis for temporary storage of the data and log files is Article 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.

• 4. Cookies

  This European Food Network website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files which are sent to a computer browser by a website and stored on the computer. By using cookies, DACHSER can provide you with user-friendly services that would not be possible without them. Cookies enable us to recognize users of the European Food Network website. For example, users of a website that employs cookies need not enter their sign-up details every time they visit the site because the website ‘remembers’ them from the cookie stored on their computer.

  This European Food Network website uses tracking technologies from etracker GmbH, Erste Brunnenstrasse 1, 20459 Hamburg, Germany (www.etracker.com). The data are collected and used for the purposes of marketing and website optimization, and can be used to create pseudonymized user profiles. Cookies can be used for this purpose by enabling the user’s internet browser to be recognized. Data collected using etracker will not be used to identify website visitors personally or be combined with personal details about the bearer of a pseudonym without the specifically issued permission of the visitor concerned. No profiling will be conducted. Website users may withdraw their consent to data collection and storage at any time with effect from the date of withdrawal.

  You can change the settings of your web browser at any time to permanently block cookies from the European Food Network website and thus prevent our website from saving cookies on their computer. In addition, cookies that are already stored can be erased at any time by a web browser or other software programs. All standard browsers offer this function. If you deactivate cookies in your web browser, you may be unable to use some functions on our website to their full extent. The lawful basis for processing of personal data using cookies is Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

• 5. Google Maps

  This European Food Network website uses services from Google Maps. This enables us to display interactive maps directly in the European Food Network website and provides you with convenient use of the map function.

  By visiting the European Food Network website, you inform Google that you have accessed the relevant subsite of the European Food Network website. In addition, the data specified in section 2 of this policy are transmitted. This process takes place irrespective of whether Google provides a user account via which you are logged in or whether no such user account exists. If you are logged into Google, your data is directly assigned to your account. If you do not wish the data to be assigned to your Google profile, log out before activating the button. Google stores your data in the form of a user profile and uses them for purposes of advertising, market research, and/or user-oriented design of its website. Such evaluation is used particularly (even for users that are not logged in) for the purpose of delivering user-oriented advertising and to inform other social network users of your activities on the European Food Network website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles. To exercise this right, contact Google directly. Further information concerning the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by the plugin provider can be found in the provider’s data privacy policy.

  The lawful basis for processing of personal data using Google Maps is Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. Transfer of personal data to the USA is in conformity with the EU-US Privacy Shield in accordance with Art. 45 (1) GDPR, of which Google is a member.

• 6. Data transfer to third parties

  Access to personal data is technically feasible for service providers and contractual partners which we use to operate the European Food Network website. These external providers undertake to use your personal data solely for the purpose of providing the services we have ordered or for other purposes in accordance with our instructions.

  DACHSER is responsible for informing you of your rights as a data subject within the scope of the applicable data protection laws. You can direct any inquiries and complaints concerning your personal data to DACHSER.

  With the exception of the cases of data transfer specified above, we do not share, sell, or market your personal data to third parties, e.g. other companies or organizations, unless you have given your express consent or unless such transfer is necessary to our fulfillment of our contractual obligations towards you as user of the website.

• 7. Duration of data storage

  The duration of storage of personal data is determined by the applicable statutory period of retention. After expiry of this period the data are routinely erased unless required for contractual fulfillment or contractual initiation.

  In the event that the purpose of storage no longer applies or a period of retention required by the European regulator or other responsible legislator expires, personal data are routinely blocked or erased in accordance with statutory regulations.

• 8. Your rights

  As a data subject, your rights with respect to DACHSER are stated in Articles 15–21 GDPR, assuming fulfillment of the preconditions set forth therein. These rights are the right to information (Art. 15 GDPR), notification (Art. 16 GDPR), erasure (Art. 17 GDPR), restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR), and data portability (Art. 20 GDPR) and the right to lodge an objection (Arts. 21 and 22 GDPR).
