Collecting general data and information

When accessed by a person or an automated system the UMB AG website collects various general data and information. Such general data and information will be stored in the server’s log files. The following information may be collected:

  1. browser types and versions used,
  2. the operating system of the accessing system,
  3. the website from which the accessing system arrives on our website,
  4. the webpages visited by a accessing system on our website,
  5. date and time of the access to our website,
  6. an internet protocol address (IP address),
  7. the internet service provider of the accessing system as well as other similar data and information for the prevention of attacks on our information technology systems.

When utilizing such general data and information, UMB will not trace them to any data subject. Instead, such information is needed to

  1. correctly render the contents on our website,
  2. optimize the contents on our website,
  3. ensure the permanent operability of our information technology systems and technical viability of our website,
  4. provide the necessary data to law enforcement in case of a cyberattack.

Such anonymously collected data and information is statistically analyzed by UMB and evaluated with the aim to increase data protection and data security in our company as well as, ultimately, to ensure the best possible level of protection for any personal data processed by us. Anonymous data in the server log files is stored separately from any personal data declared by data subjects. Such data will generally not be given to third parties except if a legal obligation arises or if it serves law enforcement purposes.

 

Registering on our website

The data subject has the option to register on our website by declaring certain personal data. The type of personal data transferred to us is determined by the input screen used. Personal information entered by the data subject is collected and stored exclusively for internal use at UMB AG and for our own purpose. UMB AG may forward such data to an order processor, such as a parcel service. Such a processor will also use the personal data in question exclusively for internal purposes associated with UMB.

Registering a data subject who voluntarily discloses personal data allows us to offer particular contents or services to such a person, which, due to their nature, can only be provided to registered users. At any time, registered individuals have the option to alter or completely erase personal data entered at registration from our files.

On request of a data subject UMB AG will provide information regarding stored personal data concerning that individual. UMB AG will also, on request or notification of a data subject, rectify or erase personal data but for any statutory storage obligations.

Cookies

We use cookies on our website. Cookies are data that the visited website or its server stores on your computer via the browser in order to recognize it later. Your computer sends the cookie information back to the server with each request on subsequent new visits to this website.

When registering for the newsletter, we will also store the IP address assigned by the internet service provider to the computer system used for registering by the data subject at registering time as well as date and time of the registration.

Routine deletion and blocking of personal data

Personal data of a data subject will only be processed and stored by UMB AG for the duration necessary to achieve the aim of the storage purpose or as long as provided for by rules and regulations UMB AG is subjected to.

Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of our website, compiling reports on website activity for us and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage.

Google Analytics is configured to anonymise your IP address. This means that your IP address is shortened by Google within the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transferred to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

Legal framework for processing

Within the scope of the EU GDPR it is Article 6 1. (a) EU GDPR which provides the legal basis for our company when processing data for a specific purpose with user consent. If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a contract with the data subject as a party of such a contract, e.g., in case of data processing required for the delivery of goods or another service or consideration, such processing is based on Article 6 1. (b) EU GDPR. The same applies to processing required for the performance of pre-contractual measures, such as inquiries regarding our products or services. If processing is necessary for UMB AG’s compliance with a legal obligation, e.g., to fulfill tax compliance obligations, such processing is based on Article 6 1. (c) EU GDPR. In rare cases, processing of personal data might become necessary to protect the vital interest of a data subject or another natural person. This could, for example, be the case if a visitor to our company was injured and it became necessary to forward his or her name, age, health insurance information or other vital data to a medical doctor, a hospital, or other third party. In such case, processing will be based on Article 6 1. (d) EU GDPR. Processing operations may also be based on Article 6 1. (f) EU GDPR. This article provides the legal basis for processing operations not covered by any of the provisions mentioned above if processing is necessary for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by UMB AG or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and free- doms of the data subject.

 

Duration of storage of personal data

The duration of storage of personal data is based on the respective legal retention period. Upon expiry of such period all pertinent data will be routinely deleted, provided they are no longer necessary for contract performance or the initiation of a contract.

Statutory or contractual regulations for the provision of personal data; requirement for the conclusion of contract; obligation of the data subject to provide personal data; pos- sible consequences of non-provision

This is to inform you that the provision of personal data is sometimes legally required (e.g. through tax regulation) or that such provision may result from contractual rules (e.g. information about the contractual partner). Sometimes the provision of personal data by a data subject that subsequently needs to be processed by UMB AG might be required for the conclusion of a contract. The data subject is, for example, obligated to provide personal data to UMB AG for the purpose of concluding a contract with us. Non-provision of personal data would make it impossible to conclude a contract with the data subject.
