Data security

We take the protection and security of our employee, business partner, and customer data seriously.

The respect of privacy is thus a serious concern to which we pay special attention when processing and using personal data. Insofar as personal data is collected (e.g. your name, address, or other contact details), it is processed and used exclusively in accordance with applicable data protection regulations.

In the following we would like to inform you about the collection of personal data when using this website. Personal data is any data that refers to you personally – e.g. name, address, e-mail address, user behaviour.

1. Controller & data protection officer

The controller responsible for the collection, processing, and use of your personal data in the context of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is:

Biosimedics SRS GmbH

Forsmannstrasse 28

22303 Hamburg

You can contact our data protection officer at datenschutz@biosimedics.com or via our postal address, marked for the attention of “the data protection officer”.

2. Collection of personal data when visiting our website

(1) When you use the website for information purposes only – i.e. if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information – we collect only the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. If you wish to view our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display our website to you and to ensure stability and security:
–   IP address
–   Date and time of the request
–   Time zone difference from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
–   Content of the request (specific page)
–   Access status/HTTP status code
–   Amount of transferred data
–   Referrer URL
–   Browser
–   Operating system and its interface
–   Language and version of the browser software

The lawful basis for processing this data is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our interests in the data processing are, in particular, to enable the use of the website by guaranteeing the stable operation and security of the website. Where not specifically indicated, we store personal data only for as long as it is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected.

(2) In addition to the aforementioned data, cookies are stored on your computer when you use our website. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your hard drive by the browser and through which certain information flows. Cookies cannot execute programs or transmit viruses to your computer. Their purpose is to make websites more user-friendly and effective.

So that we can determine whether you have consented to the processing of data in connection with cookies/plug-ins (if necessary), we set a cookie, on the basis of our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), that informs us to which type of data processing you have given your consent or if you have not consented.

Of course, you can also view our website without cookies. Internet browsers are generally set to accept cookies. You can disable the use of cookies at any time via your browser settings. Please use the help functions of your Internet browser to find out how to change these settings. Please note that some features of our website may not work if you have disabled the use of cookies.

(3) If you have given us your consent, we will use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, (“Google”). Google Analytics allows us to compile statistics about the use of our website and its sources. The cookies are stored for two years. We use Google Analytics exclusively for statistical purposes – e.g. to track how many users have clicked on a specific element or piece of information.
The lawful basis for the processing is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you can provide in the cookie banner. If you have not given us your consent, your use of our website will not be recorded by Google Analytics.
Google Analytics is based on cookies and records information about your use of our website, including your IP address. To prevent website visitors being identified via their IP addresses, we use a specific code to ensure that your IP address is only transmitted in a truncated and therefore anonymous form. It is no longer possible to identify individual users with this shortened IP address.

You can find more information about data protection with Google Analytics here.
You may revoke your consent with effect for the future by downloading and installing the plug-in available from the following link: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout .
In addition, you can change the settings at here or via the opt-out page of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI).
Alternatively, you can also disable Google cookies via the Digital Advertising Alliance website using the following link: http://optout.aboutads.info/?c=2#!/.
Finally, you can prevent cookies from being stored via your browser’s general settings.
General note about Google:
The information recorded by Google Analytics is sent to Google, which is based in the USA. Google is self-certified under the Privacy Shield to ensure adequate protection of your personal data in accordance with EU law.

Further information about data protection at Google can be found at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

3. E-mail contact
If you contact us (e.g. via the contact form or e-mail), we store your details in order to process your query and for any follow-up questions. We delete this data when it no longer needs to be stored or restrict its processing if there are legal obligations to keep the data. We store and use other personal data only if you consent to this or this is legally permissible without specific consent.

4. Google Maps
The website incorporates Google Maps via an API in order to display geographical information visually. Our legitimate interests are derived from this purpose. The IP address needs to be processed by Google in order to display the map. When you visit the website, Google is notified that you have accessed the relevant subpage of our website. The data is processed on the lawful basis of Art. 6(1) sentence 1(f) GDPR. Our cooperation with Google LLC in data protection aspects is based on an agreement regarding shared responsibility in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR, which can be viewed here .
By using Google Maps, the user enters directly into a user relationship with Google.

General note about Google:
The information recorded by Google Maps is sent to Google, which is based in the USA. Google is self-certified under the Privacy Shield to ensure adequate protection of your personal data in accordance with EU law. Further information about data protection at Google can be found at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

5. Google Fonts
To ensure the consistent display of fonts, our website uses the fonts service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (”Google”). When you access a webpage, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser’s cache in order to correctly display text and fonts. To do this, the browser you are using needs to communicate with Google’s servers. This involves transmitting personal data to the servers of Google LLC in the USA. Google will be informed, for example, that our website has been accessed via your IP address. Google Fonts is used to ensure that our online services are presented in a consistent and attractive way. Our legitimate interests within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR are derived from these purposes.
In the event that personal data is transmitted to Google LLC, which is based in the USA, Google LLC has obtained certification under the EU–US data protection convention Privacy Shield, which guarantees compliance with the level of data protection applicable in the EU.
You can find more information on Google Fonts at developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s Privacy Policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy.

6. Google reCAPTCHA
On this website we also use the reCAPTCHA tool of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"). This tool is primarily intended to distinguish whether an entry is made by a natural person or is misused through machine- and automated means. This data processing includes the sending of the IP address and, where applicable, other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service to Google and is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO on the basis of our legitimate interest (avoiding misuse and spam). In some cases, the use of Google reCAPTCHA may involve the transfer of personal data to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA.

In the event that personal data is transferred to Google LLC. based in the USA, Google LLC. has certified itself for the Privacy Shield, which guarantees compliance with the level of data protection applicable in the EU. A current certificate can be viewed here: https://www.privacyshield.gov/list

We use the provider Vimeo to embed and display videos; our legitimate interests are directly derived from these purposes. Vimeo is operated by Vimeo, LLC, with its headquarters at 555 West 18th Street, New York, NY 10011, USA. If you access webpages forming part of our Internet presence that contain embedded videos – e.g. if you play a video – a connection is established with the Vimeo servers and the video is shown. Information about which of our webpages you have visited, and your IP address is then transmitted to the Vimeo server. If you are logged in to Vimeo as a member, Vimeo will associate this information with your personal user account. If you use the plug-in – e.g. click the play button on a video – this information is also associated with your user account. The lawful basis is Art. 6(1) sentence 1(f) GDPR. You can prevent this information from being associated with your account by logging out of your Vimeo user account before using our website and deleting the relevant cookies from Vimeo.
