Privacy Policy
We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our enterprise. Data protection is of a
particularly high priority for the management of the Labcoating GmbH. The use of the
Internet pages of the Labcoating GmbH is possible without any indication of personal data;
however, if a data subject wants to use special enterprise services via our website,
processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is
necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent
from the data subject.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone
number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation
(GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable
to the Labcoating GmbH. By means of this data protection declaration, our enterprise would
like to inform the general public of the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we
collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed, by means of this data
protection declaration, of the rights to which they are entitled.
As the controller, the Labcoating GmbH has implemented numerous technical and
organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed
through this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions may in principle have
security gaps, so absolute protection may not be guaranteed. For this reason, every data
subject is free to transfer personal data to us via alternative means, e.g. by telephone.
1. Definitions
The data protection declaration of the Labcoating GmbH is based on the terms used by the
European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our
data protection declaration should be legible and understandable for the general public, as
well as our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to first explain
the terminology used.
In this data protection declaration, we use, inter alia, the following terms:
a) Personal data
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person
(“data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or
indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification
number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical,
physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
b) Data subject
Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person, whose personal data is
processed by the controller responsible for the processing.
c) Processing
Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on
sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording,
organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use,
disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or
combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
d) Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their
processing in the future.
e) Profiling
Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of
personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular
to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person's performance at work,
economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or
movements.
f) Pseudonymisation
Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data
can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional
information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to
technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to
an identified or identifiable natural person.
g) Controller or controller responsible for the processing
Controller or controller responsible for the processing is the natural or legal person, public
authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes
and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of such
processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific
criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.
h) Processor
Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which
processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
i) Recipient
Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the
personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which
may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union
or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients; the processing of those data by
those public authorities shall be in compliance with the applicable data protection rules
according to the purposes of the processing.
j) Third party
Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data
subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller
or processor, are authorised to process personal data.
k) Consent
Consent of the data subject is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous
indication of the data subject's wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear
affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or
her.
2. Name and Address of the controller

3. Cookies
The Internet pages of the Labcoating GmbH use cookies. Cookies are text files that are
stored in a computer system via an Internet browser.
Many Internet sites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A
cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a character string through which
Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the
cookie was stored. This allows visited Internet sites and servers to differentiate the
individual browser of the dats subject from other Internet browsers that contain other
cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified using the unique
cookie ID.
Through the use of cookies, the Labcoating GmbH can provide the users of this website with
more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.
By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized with the
user in mind. Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognize our website users. The
purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website. The website
user that uses cookies, e.g. does not have to enter access data each time the website is
accessed, because this is taken over by the website, and the cookie is thus stored on the
user's computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online shop.
The online store remembers the articles that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping
cart via a cookie.
The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by
means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used, and may thus permanently
deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via
an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all popular Internet
browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used,
not all functions of our website may be entirely usable.
4. Collection of general data and information
The website of the Labcoating GmbH collects a series of general data and information when
a data subject or automated system calls up the website. This general data and information
are stored in the server log files. Collected may be (1) the browser types and versions used,
(2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an
accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites, (5) the date
and time of access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the
Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) any other similar data and
information that may be used in the event of attacks on our information technology
systems.
When using these general data and information, the Labcoating GmbH does not draw any
conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the
content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website as well as its
advertisement, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our information technology systems and
website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information
necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack. Therefore, the Labcoating
GmbH analyzes anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the aim of
increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal
level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log
files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.
5. Registration on our website
The data subject has the possibility to register on the website of the controller with the
indication of personal data. Which personal data are transmitted to the controller is
determined by the respective input mask used for the registration. The personal data
entered by the data subject are collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the
controller, and for his own purposes. The controller may request transfer to one or more
processors (e.g. a parcel service) that also uses personal data for an internal purpose which
is attributable to the controller.
By registering on the website of the controller, the IP address—assigned by the Internet
service provider (ISP) and used by the data subject—date, and time of the registration are
also stored. The storage of this data takes place against the background that this is the only
way to prevent the misuse of our services, and, if necessary, to make it possible to
investigate committed offenses. Insofar, the storage of this data is necessary to secure the
controller. This data is not passed on to third parties unless there is a statutory obligation to
pass on the data, or if the transfer serves the aim of criminal prosecution.
The registration of the data subject, with the voluntary indication of personal data, is
intended to enable the controller to offer the data subject contents or services that may
only be offered to registered users due to the nature of the matter in question. Registered
persons are free to change the personal data specified during the registration at any time, or
to have them completely deleted from the data stock of the controller.
The data controller shall, at any time, provide information upon request to each data subject
as to what personal data are stored about the data subject. In addition, the data controller
shall correct or erase personal data at the request or indication of the data subject, insofar
as there are no statutory storage obligations. A Data Protection Officer particularly
designated in this data protection declaration, as well as the entirety of the controller’s
employees are available to the data subject in this respect as contact persons.
6. Contact possibility via the website
The website of the Labcoating GmbH contains information that enables a quick electronic
contact to our enterprise, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a
general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a data subject contacts
the controller by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data
subject are automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a
data subject to the data controller are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the
data subject. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties.
7. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data
The data controller shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the
period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted by the
European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is
subject to.
If the storage purpose is not applicable, or if a storage period prescribed by the European
legislator or another competent legislator expires, the personal data are routinely blocked or
erased in accordance with legal requirements.
8. Rights of the data subject
a) Right of confirmation
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the
controller the confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning him or her are
being processed. If a data subject wishes to avail himself of this right of confirmation, he or
she may, at any time, contact our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the
controller.
b) Right of access
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the
controller free information about his or her personal data stored at any time and a copy of
this information. Furthermore, the European directives and regulations grant the data
subject access to the following information:
the purposes of the processing;
the categories of personal data concerned;
the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will
be disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organisations;
where possible, the envisaged period for which the personal data will be stored, or, if
not possible, the criteria used to determine that period;
the existence of the right to request from the controller rectification or erasure of
personal data, or restriction of processing of personal data concerning the data subject, or to
object to such processing;
the existence of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
where the personal data are not collected from the data subject, any available
information as to their source;
the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, referred to in Article
22(1) and (4) of the GDPR and, at least in those cases, meaningful information about the
logic involved, as well as the significance and envisaged consequences of such processing for
the data subject.
Furthermore, the data subject shall have a right to obtain information as to whether
personal data are transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. Where
this is the case, the data subject shall have the right to be informed of the appropriate
safeguards relating to the transfer.
If a data subject wishes to avail himself of this right of access, he or she may at any time
contact our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the controller.
c) Right to rectification
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the
controller without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him
or her. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, the data subject shall have the
right to have incomplete personal data completed, including by means of providing a
supplementary statement.
If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to rectification, he or she may, at any time,
contact our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the controller.
d) Right to erasure (Right to be forgotten)
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the
controller the erasure of personal data concerning him or her without undue delay, and the
controller shall have the obligation to erase personal data without undue delay where one of
the following grounds applies, as long as the processing is not necessary:
The personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they
were collected or otherwise processed.
The data subject withdraws consent to which the processing is based according to point
(a) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR, or point (a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR, and where there is no
other legal ground for the processing.
The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR and
there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to
the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the GDPR.
The personal data have been unlawfully processed.
The personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation in Union or
Member State law to which the controller is subject.
The personal data have been collected in relation to the offer of information society
services referred to in Article 8(1) of the GDPR.
If one of the aforementioned reasons applies, and a data subject wishes to request the
erasure of personal data stored by the Labcoating GmbH, he or she may at any time contact
our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the controller. The Data Protection
Officer of the Labcoating GmbH or another employee shall promptly ensure that the erasure
request is complied with immediately.
Where the controller has made personal data public and is obliged pursuant to Article
17(1) to erase the personal data, the controller, taking account of available technology and
the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to
inform other controllers processing the personal data that the data subject has requested
erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data, as
far as processing is not required. The Data Protection Officer of the Labcoating GmbH or
another employee will arrange the necessary measures in individual cases.
e) Right of restriction of processing
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the
controller restriction of processing where one of the following applies:
The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling
the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
The processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal
data and requests instead the restriction of their use instead.
The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but
they are required by the data subject for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal
claims.
The data subject has objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR
pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of
the data subject.
If one of the aforementioned conditions is met, and a data subject wishes to request the
restriction of the processing of personal data stored by the Labcoating GmbH, he or she may
at any time contact our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the controller. The
Data Protection Officer of the Labcoating GmbH or another employee will arrange the
restriction of the processing.
f) Right to data portability
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator, to receive the
personal data concerning him or her, which was provided to a controller, in a structured,
commonly used and machine-readable format. He or she shall have the right to transmit
those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the
personal data have been provided, as long as the processing is based on consent pursuant to
point (a) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR or point (a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR, or on a contract
pursuant to point (b) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR, and the processing is carried out by
automated means, as long as the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task
carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the
controller.
Furthermore, in exercising his or her right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) of
the GDPR, the data subject shall have the right to have personal data transmitted directly
from one controller to another, where technically feasible and when doing so does not
adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
In order to assert the right to data portability, the data subject may at any time contact
the Data Protection Officer designated by the Labcoating GmbH or another employee.
g) Right to object
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to object, on
grounds relating to his or her particular situation, at any time, to processing of personal data
concerning him or her, which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR. This also
applies to profiling based on these provisions.
The Labcoating GmbH shall no longer process the personal data in the event of the
objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing
which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the
establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
If the Labcoating GmbH processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data
subject shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning
him or her for such marketing. This applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such
direct marketing. If the data subject objects to the Labcoating GmbH to the processing for
direct marketing purposes, the Labcoating GmbH will no longer process the personal data
for these purposes.
In addition, the data subject has the right, on grounds relating to his or her particular
situation, to object to processing of personal data concerning him or her by the Labcoating
GmbH for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to
Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task
carried out for reasons of public interest.
In order to exercise the right to object, the data subject may directly contact the Data
Protection Officer of the Labcoating GmbH or another employee. In addition, the data
subject is free in the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding
Directive 2002/58/EC, to use his or her right to object by automated means using technical
specifications.
h) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator not to be subject to
a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal
effects concerning him or her, or similarly significantly affects him or her, as long as the
decision (1) is not is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between
the data subject and a data controller, or (2) is not authorised by Union or Member State law
to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard
the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is not based on the
data subject's explicit consent.
If the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract
between the data subject and a data controller, or (2) it is based on the data subject's
explicit consent, the Labcoating GmbH shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the
data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain
human intervention on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and
contest the decision.
If the data subject wishes to exercise the rights concerning automated individual decisionmaking,
he or she may at any time directly contact our Data Protection Officer of the
Labcoating GmbH or another employee of the controller.
i) Right to withdraw data protection consent
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to withdraw his or
her consent to processing of his or her personal data at any time.
f the data subject wishes to exercise the right to withdraw the consent, he or she may at
any time directly contact our Data Protection Officer of the Labcoating GmbH or another
employee of the controller.
9. Using Script Libraries (Google Webfonts)
In order to render our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use
script libraries and font libraries on this website, such as: Google Webfonts
(https://www.google.com/webfonts/). Google web fonts are transferred to the cache of
your browser to prevent multiple loading. If the browser does not support Google Web fonts
or prohibits access, content will be displayed in a standard font.
The call of script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the operator
of the library. It is theoretically possible - but currently also unclear whether and if so for
what purposes - that operators of such libraries collect data.
The privacy policy of the library operator Google can be found here:
https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/
10. Using Google Maps
This website uses Google Maps API to display geographic information. Google also increases,
processes and utilizes the use of map features by visitors. For more information about
Google's data processing, please refer to Google's Privacy Policy
(https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en). Here you can also change your personal privacy
settings in the Privacy Center. For more suggestions about managing data related to Google
products, see:
https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/3024190
11. Data protection for applications and the application procedures
The data controller shall collect and process the personal data of applicants for the purpose
of the processing of the application procedure. The processing may also be carried out
electronically. This is the case, in particular, if an applicant submits corresponding
application documents by e-mail or by means of a web form on the website to the
controller. If the data controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the
submitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in
compliance with legal requirements. If no employment contract is concluded with the
applicant by the controller, the application documents shall be automatically erased two
months after notification of the refusal decision, provided that no other legitimate interests
of the controller are opposed to the erasure. Other legitimate interest in this relation is, e.g.
a burden of proof in a procedure under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).
12. Legal basis for the processing
Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain
consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for
the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as is the case, for example,
when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other
service, the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such
processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for
example in the case of inquiries concerning our products or services. Is our company subject
to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the
fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR. In rare cases,
the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data
subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were
injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information
would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing
would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR. Finally, processing operations could be based on
Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not
covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the
purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except
where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of
the data subject which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are
particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European
legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a
client of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).
13. The legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party
Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR our legitimate
interest is to carry out our business in favor of the well-being of all our employees and the
shareholders.
14. Period for which the personal data will be stored
The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective
statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is
routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or
the initiation of a contract.
15. Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement;
Requirement
necessary to enter into a contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal
data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data
We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations)
or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner).
Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with
personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for
example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with
him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the
contract with the data subject could not be concluded. Before personal data is provided by
the data subject, the data subject must contact our Data Protection Officer. Our Data
Protection Officer clarifies to the data subject whether the provision of the personal data is
required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there
is an obligation to provide the personal data and the consequences of non-provision of the
personal data.
16. Existence of automated decision-making
As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.
