Data protection

The protection of your personal data is very important to us. Naturally, we protect this data in compliance with the applicable data protection regulations, and in particular with the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Unless otherwise stated below, the legal basis for processing the data is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

This data protection declaration gives you information regarding the type, extent and purpose of the processing of personal data within the scope of this website.

The controller as defined in data protection law is:
Wohnplan-B GmbH & Co. KG
Wilhelmstr. 13b
37574 Einbeck, Germany
Statutory information: https://www.wohnplan-b.de/en/statutory-information/

Usage and access data

For technical reasons, your Internet browser automatically transmits data to the web server when you access our website. This information is stored in so-called “server log files” and comprises the name of the accessed website, the date and time of accessing, the transmitted data volume, notification about successful accessing, the user’s operating system, the browser type, version and language, the source or link that referred you to the website, and the IP address or the provider’s host name that is assigned to this IP address. This information is used, without any assignment to your person or profile development, for the following purposes only: statistical analysis, to maintain the technical operation of this website and to improve the website. For security reasons (such as investigating misuse and fraud), log file information shall be stored for a period of one month and then deleted. Data whose continued retention is required for evidentiary purposes shall be exempt from deletion pending final clarification of the incident in question.

Cookies

This website uses so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your end device. Your browser accesses these files. The use of cookies makes this website more user-friendly and secure. If you do not want cookies to be stored on your end device, you can deactivate the relevant option in your browser’s settings and also delete any existing cookies. If you reject cookies, this may limit some of the website’s functions.

Inventory data

If a contractual relationship between you and us is to be established, developed or amended, we will collect and use your personal data to the extent necessary for this purpose. If instructed to do so by the responsible authorities, we may in individual cases provide information about this user data (inventory data) insofar as this is necessary for the purposes of criminal prosecution, hazard prevention, fulfilment of the legal tasks of the constitution protection authorities or military counter-intelligence service, or the enforcement of intellectual property rights.

Contact initiation

If you contact us (e.g. via the contact form on this website, or via email or telephone), your details will be processed and stored by us so that we can process and manage your enquiry. We will not pass on this data without your consent. We delete enquiries if they are no longer required. Once every two years, we check to see if the data is still required; the statutory archiving obligations also apply.

Integration of services and third-party content

Based on our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our website), we use third-party content and services within our website. These may be videos or map services, for example. If this content is accessed, the IP address is transmitted to the service provider, unless otherwise specified below.

Google Fonts

To optimise the presentation of our website, we integrate fonts from the “Google Fonts” service, provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Data protection declaration:  https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy

Erasure of data

If not expressly stated otherwise in this data protection declaration, data stored by us is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the intended purpose and no legal retention obligations oppose the deletion. If the data is not deleted because it is required for other and legally permissible purposes, then the processing of this data will be restricted. This means that the data will be blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for commercial law or tax law reasons.

Cooperation with processors and third parties

If in the course of our processing we disclose data to other persons and companies (processors or third parties), transfer the data to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this takes place only on the basis of a legal authorisation. For example, if the data has to be transferred to third parties for the fulfilment of the contract, if you have given your consent to this, if a legal obligation provides for this, or for the purpose of our legitimate interests (e.g. when using agents etc.). If we commission third parties to process data, this shall be on the basis of a so-called “order processing agreement” in accordance with data protection legislation.

Your right of access and right to erasure and blocking

You are entitled at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients and the purpose of data processing. Provided that your request does not conflict with a legal obligation to retain data (e.g. data retention requirement), you have the right to have incorrect data corrected and to have your personal data blocked or deleted.

Right of withdrawal

You have the right pursuant to Art. 7(3) GDPR to withdraw granted consents, with future effect.

Right to object

In accordance with Art. 21 GDPR, you can object at any time to any future processing of personal data concerning you.

Right to lodge a complaint

In the event of infringements of data protection law, the data subject has the right to object to the competent supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR). The data subject may invoke this right before a supervisory authority in the Member State in which they reside or work, or in which the alleged infringement took place. In Lower Saxony, the competent supervisory authority is:
