We, Impetus Plastics Engineering GmbH, are pleased about your visit to our website and your interest in our company and our services.

As the operator of these pages, we take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this data protection declaration.

As a rule, it is possible to use our website without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (for example, name, address or e-mail addresses) is collected on our pages, this is always done, as far as possible, on a voluntary basis. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your explicit consent.

In the following, we explain what information we collect during your visit to our websites and how it is used.

Term “personal data”

Personal data is individual information about personal or factual circumstances of a specific or identifiable natural person. This includes information such as your real name, address, telephone number and date of birth. Information that is not directly related to your real identity – such as favorite websites or number of users of a site – is not personal data.

Data transmission/data logging

When you visit our web pages, the provider of our web servers automatically stores the connection data of the requesting computer, the web pages you visit on our site, the date and duration of the visit, the identification data of the browser and operating system type used and the web page from which you visit us (log files) temporarily for the purpose of system security.

Collection, processing, use and disclosure of personal data.

Additional personal data such as your name, address, telephone number or e-mail address are not collected unless you provide this information voluntarily, e.g. in the context of an information request. We reserve the right to check this data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of unlawful use.

We use the personal data you provide exclusively for the purpose of technical administration of the websites and to fulfill your wishes and requirements, i.e. generally to respond to your inquiry. Your personal data will not be passed on, sold or otherwise transferred to third parties unless this is necessary for the purpose of processing the contract.

Contact form

If you send us inquiries via contact form, your data from the inquiry form, including the contact data you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. Your personal data will not be passed on, sold or otherwise transferred to third parties unless this is necessary for the purpose of processing the contract (e.g. for sending packages).

Newsletter data

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require an e-mail address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter (double opt in procedure). Further data will not be collected. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information. For our newsletter we use the tool of Rapidmail. The servers for this are operated exclusively in Germany. We have concluded an order processing contract with Rapidmail, which regulates the transfer of personal data in accordance with the DSGVO. You can revoke your consent to the storage of data, the email address and its use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example via the “unsubscribe” link in the newsletter.

Use of web tracking (Google Analytics)

This website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site.

In the event that IP anonymization is activated on this website, however, your IP address will be truncated beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

The data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.
On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link.

We have concluded an order processing agreement with Google and implement the requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

Other cookies “permanent cookies” remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser on your next visit. The purpose of the use of these cookies is to be able to offer you an optimal user experience as well as to “recognize” you and present you with the most varied website and new content possible during repeated use. The content of a permanent cookie is limited to an identification number. Name, IP address etc. are not stored. Individual profiling of your usage behavior does not take place.

Security

Impetus Plastics Engineering takes all necessary technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from loss and misuse. For example, your data is stored in an operating environment that is not accessible to the public. In certain cases, your personal data is encrypted during transmission using so-called Secure Socket Layer technology (SSL). This means that communication between your computer and the servers takes place using a recognized encryption method if your browser supports SSL.

If you wish to contact Impetus Plastics companies by e-mail, we would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Rights of the user: right to information, correction and deletion

In accordance with applicable law, you can ask us in writing at any time whether and which personal data (e.g. name, address) we have stored about you. Upon written request, we will inform you which data we have stored about you. Unless your request conflicts with a legal obligation to retain data, you have a right to have incorrect data corrected and to have your personal data blocked or deleted.

Changes to this privacy policy

We will update this policy from time to time to protect your personal information. You should review this policy occasionally to stay informed about how we are protecting your information and continually improving the content of our website. If we make any material changes to the collection, use and/or disclosure of the personal information you provide to us, we will notify you by placing a prominent notice on the Site.
