Data Protection
The operators of these pages 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 privacy policy.
When you use this website, various personal data are collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.
We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., communication by e-mail) may have security vulnerabilities. A complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.
Controller's Name and Contact Details
The controller for data processing on this website is:
Xaver Schneider GmbH & Co. KG Obereschring 1 88512 Mengen
Phone: +49 7572 76 36 0 Email: info@schneider-schirme.com
The controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).
Storage Duration
Unless a specific storage period is specified within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing the data ceases to exist. If you make a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to processing, your data will be deleted, unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial retention periods); in the latter case, the deletion will take place after these reasons no longer apply.
General Information on Legal Bases for Data Processing on This Website
If you have given your consent to the processing of your personal data, we will process your personal data on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR, if special categories of data are processed in accordance with Article 9(1) GDPR. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, the processing shall also be based on Article 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information on your device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), the processing will also take place on the basis of § 25(1) TTDSG.

Note on Data Transfer to the USA and Other Third Countries
We use tools from companies based in the USA or other countries that are not secure in terms of data protection. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these third countries. Please note that these countries may not guarantee a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU. For example, US companies are required to disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies without the possibility for affected individuals to take legal action against this. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that US authorities (e.g., intelligence agencies) may process, evaluate, and permanently store your data located on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.
Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for this purpose. The legality of the data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and Direct Advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)
If data processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation, including profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR).
If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing, including profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR).
Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Supervisory Authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. This right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.
SSL or TLS Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Information, Blocking, Deletion, and Correction
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient, and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking, or deletion of this data. For this purpose, as well as for further questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address provided in the imprint.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time at the address provided in the imprint to exercise this right. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:
If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it for the exercise, defense, or assertion of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
If you have filed an objection pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests outweigh the other, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data – apart from its storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
Encrypted Payment Transactions on This Website
If there is an obligation to provide us with your payment details (e.g., account number for direct debit) after the conclusion of a paid contract, this data is required for payment processing.
Payment transactions via the common means of payment (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are made exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
With encrypted communication, your payment data, which you transmit to us, cannot be read by third parties.
Objection to Advertising Emails
We hereby expressly prohibit the use of contact data published in the context of website legal notice requirements with regard to sending promotional and informational materials not expressly requested. The operators of this website expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited sending of promotional information, such as spam emails.
Cookies
Our website uses so-called "cookies." Cookies are small data packets that do not harm your device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your device. Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit ends. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or they are automatically deleted by your web browser.
Cookies can come from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services from third-party companies within websites (e.g., cookies for processing payment services).
Cookies have various functions. Numerous cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies may be used to analyze user behavior or for advertising purposes.
Cookies that are necessary for the performance of the electronic communication process, for the provision of certain functions requested by you (e.g., for the shopping cart function), or for the optimization of the website (e.g., cookies for measuring web audience) are stored based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies and similar recognition technologies has been requested, processing will only be carried out on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG); consent can be revoked at any time.
You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for specific cases or in general, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.
You can find out which cookies and services are used on this website in this privacy policy.

The provider of this technology is Cybot A/S, Havnegade 39, 1058 Copenhagen, Denmark (hereinafter "Cookiebot").
When you visit our website, a connection to Cookiebot's servers is established to obtain your consents and other declarations regarding the use of cookies. Cookiebot then stores a cookie in your browser to assign the consents granted or their revocation. The data collected in this way is stored until you ask us to delete it, delete the Cookiebot cookie yourself, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies. Mandatory statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
The use of Cookiebot is for the purpose of obtaining the legally required consents for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR.
Data Processing Agreement
We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the aforementioned service. This is a data protection agreement required by law, which ensures that this service processes the personal data of our website visitors only according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.
Server Log Files
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
These data will not be combined with data from other sources.
The collection of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website - for this purpose, the server log files must be collected.
Contact Form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not share this data without your consent.
The processing of the data entered into the contact form is therefore carried out exclusively based on your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal message by email to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data entered by you in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.
Inquiry by Email, Telephone, or Fax
If you contact us by email, telephone, or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not share this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR, if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR) and/or on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR), as we have a legitimate interest in the effective processing of the inquiries addressed to us.
The data you send to us via contact inquiries will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular statutory retention periods - remain unaffected.

The processing of the data entered during registration is based on your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR). You can revoke any consent you have given at any time. An informal message by email to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data collected during registration will be stored by us for as long as you are registered on our website and will then be deleted. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
This privacy policy applies to the following social media presences:
Data Processing by Social Networks
We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social networks. The specific social networks used by us can be found below.
Social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, etc., can typically comprehensively analyze your user behavior when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g., like buttons or advertising banners). Visiting our social media presences triggers numerous data processing operations relevant to data protection. Specifically:
When you visit our social media presences while logged into your social media account, the operator of the social media platform can associate this visit with your user account. Your personal data may also be collected if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media platform. In this case, data collection may occur, for example, through cookies stored on your device or by capturing your IP address.
The data collected in this way allows the operators of the social media platforms to create user profiles containing your preferences and interests. This enables interest-based advertising to be displayed both within and outside the respective social media presences. If you have an account with the respective social network, interest-based advertising may be displayed on all devices where you are logged in or have been logged in.
Please note that we cannot fully trace all processing operations on the social media platforms. Depending on the provider, additional processing operations may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media platforms. For details, please refer to the terms of use and privacy policies of the respective social media platforms.
Legal Basis
Our social media presences are intended to ensure the broadest possible presence on the Internet. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on different legal bases, which are to be specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g., consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).
Controller and Exercise of Rights
When you visit one of our social media presences (e.g., Facebook), we are jointly responsible with the operator of the social media platform for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. You can exercise your rights (access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and complaint) vis-à-vis both us and the operator of the respective social media platform (e.g., Facebook).
Please note that despite our joint responsibility with the social media platform operators, we do not have full influence on the data processing operations of the social media platforms. Our options are largely determined by the company policy of the respective provider.
Storage Duration
The data directly collected by us via the social media presence will be deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose for its storage ceases to apply, you request us to delete it, you revoke your consent to its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
We have no influence on the storage period of your data, which is stored by the operators of the social networks for their own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the social networks directly (e.g., in their privacy policy, see below).
Your Rights
You have the right to obtain information about the origin, recipients, and purpose of your stored personal data free of charge at any time. You also have the right to object, to data portability, and to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. Furthermore, you have the right to request the rectification, blocking, or erasure of your personal data under certain circumstances.

The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you provide us with for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter with us or the newsletter service provider and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list after unsubscribing from the newsletter. Data that has been stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected.
After unsubscribing from the newsletter distribution list, your email address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist, if necessary, to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in compliance with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). The storage in the blacklist is not time-limited. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

YouTube with Enhanced Privacy
Our website uses plugins from the YouTube website. The operator of the pages is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
We use YouTube in extended privacy mode. According to YouTube, this mode ensures that YouTube does not store information about visitors to this website until they view the video. However, the extended privacy mode does not necessarily exclude the sharing of data with YouTube partners. Thus, regardless of whether you watch a video, YouTube establishes a connection to the Google DoubleClick network.
When you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. This informs the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you allow YouTube to directly associate your browsing behavior with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
Furthermore, YouTube may store various cookies on your device or use similar recognition technologies (e.g., device fingerprinting) after starting a video. This allows YouTube to obtain information about visitors to this website. Among other things, this information is used to capture video statistics, improve user-friendliness, and prevent fraud.
Potentially, after starting a YouTube video, further data processing operations may be triggered over which we have no control.
The use of YouTube is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.
For more information about privacy at YouTube, please refer to their privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.
Processing of Customer and Contract Data
We collect, process, and use personal customer and contract data to establish, design, and modify our contractual relationships. We only collect, process, and use personal data regarding the use of this website (usage data) to the extent necessary to enable or bill the user for the use of the service. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.
The customer data collected will be deleted after the order has been completed or the business relationship has ended, and after any statutory retention periods have expired. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
Data Transmission in Case of Contract Conclusion for Online Shops, Retailers, and Shipping of Goods
When you order goods from us, we will disclose your personal data to the transport company responsible for delivery and to the payment service provider entrusted with payment processing. Only such data will be disclosed that the respective service provider requires to fulfill its task. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures. If you have given your consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, we will pass on your email address to the transport company responsible for delivery so that they can inform you by email about the shipping status of your order; you can revoke your consent at any time.
Payment Services
We integrate third-party payment services on our website. When you make a purchase from us, your payment data (e.g., name, payment amount, bank details, credit card number) will be processed by the payment service provider for the purpose of payment processing. For these transactions, the respective provider's contractual and data protection provisions apply. The use of payment service providers is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (contract processing) and in the interest of a smooth, convenient, and secure payment process (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). If consent is requested for certain actions, the legal basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; consent can be revoked at any time for the future.

Applications
We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g., via email, post, or online application form). Below, we inform you about the scope, purpose, and use of your personal data collected within the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing, and use of your data comply with applicable data protection laws and all other legal provisions and that your data will be treated strictly confidentially.
Scope and Purpose of Data Collection
When you submit an application to us, we process the associated personal data (e.g., contact and communication data, application documents, notes from job interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary for deciding on the establishment of an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG-new under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (general pre-contractual measures), and – if you have given consent – Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. The consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be disclosed within our company to persons involved in the processing of your application.
If the application is successful, the data you submitted will be stored in our data processing systems for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship based on § 26 BDSG-new and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.
Retention Period of Data
If we cannot offer you a position, you reject an offer, withdraw your application, revoke your consent to data processing, or request us to delete the data, the data you provided, including any remaining physical application documents, will be stored or retained for a maximum of 4 months after the conclusion of the application process (retention period) to be able to reconstruct the details of the application process in case of discrepancies (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THIS STORAGE, PROVIDED THAT YOU HAVE LEGITIMATE INTERESTS THAT OUTWEIGH OUR INTERESTS.
After the retention period expires, the data will be deleted unless there is a legal obligation to retain it or another legal basis for further storage exists. If it becomes apparent that the retention of your data will be necessary after the retention period has expired (e.g., due to a pending legal dispute), deletion will only occur when the data becomes obsolete. Other legal retention obligations remain unaffected.
With the following information, we provide you with an overview of the processing of your personal data by us and your rights under data protection law. The specific data processed and the manner in which it is used depend largely on the respective services agreed upon or products used.
The responsible entity is:

We process the aforementioned personal data in accordance with the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG).
If you have given us consent to process personal data for specific purposes, the lawfulness of the processing is based on your consent. Consent given can be revoked at any time. This also applies to revoking consent declarations given to us before the GDPR came into effect, i.e., before May 25, 2018. Please note that the revocation only applies to future processing. Processing that occurred before the revocation is not affected. You can request a status overview from us at any time.
The processing of personal data is carried out within the framework of executing our contracts with our customers and suppliers, as well as to carry out pre-contractual measures requested by you, and all activities necessary for the operation and administration of our company. The purposes of data processing primarily depend on the specific product and/or service.
Where necessary, we process your data beyond the actual fulfillment of the contract to safeguard our legitimate interests or those of third parties.
Within our company, only those departments or individuals who require access to your data for the fulfillment of our contractual and legal obligations will have access to it. Additionally, third-party service providers and processors may also receive data for these purposes if they comply with our written data protection instructions or are bound by professional secrecy.
These may include companies falling under the following categories:
Furthermore, other recipients of your data may include entities for which you have granted consent for data transmission.
Data transfer to countries outside the EU or EEA (so-called third countries) only takes place if necessary for the execution of our business relationship or is legally required, or if you have given us your consent.
If service providers in third countries are used within the scope of contract processing, they are additionally obliged to comply with the level of data protection in Europe by means of the agreement of the EU standard data protection clauses, provided that there is no adequacy decision of the EU Commission regarding the level of data protection (Article 45 GDPR).
An adequacy decision means that the EU Commission, after appropriate examination, has determined whether and that a third country has a level of protection equivalent to that guaranteed by the GDPR, based on its domestic laws and their application, the existence and effective functioning of one or more independent supervisory authorities, and its international commitments (so-called safe third countries). Adequacy decisions currently exist for the countries of Andorra, Argentina, the Faroe Islands, Israel, the Isle of Man, Canada, Guernsey, Jersey, New Zealand, Uruguay, and the USA under the Privacy Shield agreement.
The EU standard data protection clauses are a standardized contractual framework for data protection between service providers and their customers to ensure that personal data leaving the EEA is transferred in compliance with the European level of data protection and the requirements of the GDPR, and that enforceable rights and effective remedies are available to data subjects.
We process and store your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill our contractual and legal obligations. It should be noted that our business relationship is a continuing obligation that is intended to last for several years.
If the data is no longer required to fulfill contractual or legal obligations, it will be regularly deleted, unless its temporary further processing is necessary for the following purposes:
Compliance with commercial and tax retention periods: These include the Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch) and the Fiscal Code (Abgabenordnung). The retention periods or documentation requirements specified therein range from six to ten years. Preservation of evidence in accordance with the statute of limitations: Pursuant to §§ 195 ff. of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch, BGB), these limitation periods can be up to 30 years, with the regular limitation period being three years.
Every data subject has the right to information according to Article 15 of the GDPR, the right to rectification according to Article 16 of the GDPR, the right to erasure according to Article 17 of the GDPR, the right to restriction of processing according to Article 18 of the GDPR, the right to object according to Article 21 of the GDPR, and the right to data portability according to Article 20 of the GDPR. Restrictions under §§ 34 and 35 of the BDSG apply to the right to information and the right to erasure. Furthermore, there is a right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Article 77 of the GDPR in conjunction with § 19 of the BDSG).
You may revoke any consent given for the processing of personal data at any time. This also applies to the revocation of consent declarations given to us before the GDPR came into effect, i.e., before May 25, 2018. Please note that the revocation will only take effect for the future. Processing carried out before the revocation is not affected by this.
As part of our business relationship, you are required to provide the personal data necessary for initiating and conducting a business relationship and fulfilling the associated contractual obligations, or for which we are legally obligated to collect. Without this data, we will typically have to refuse to conclude the contract or execute the order, or may need to terminate an existing contract.
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you, which is based on Article 6(1)(e) (data processing in the public interest) and Article 6(1)(f) (data processing based on legitimate interests) of the GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions according to Article 4(4) of the GDPR. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
In individual cases, we process your personal data to conduct direct marketing. You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such advertising purposes, including profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes.
The objection can be made informally and should preferably be addressed to:
