Other data is automatically collected by our IT systems when you visit our website. These are mainly technical data (e.g. Internet browser, operating system or time of the page call). This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter our website. Other data (e.g. contact information of business partners) come from publicly accessible sources such as the company website.

For this purpose, an informal notification by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

In addition, we collect personal data for the purpose of providing contractual services, customer care and service, marketing, advertising and market research.

Data will only be passed on to third parties within the framework of legal requirements. We only pass on user data to third parties if this is done, for example, on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b. DSGVO is necessary for contractual purposes or on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO in the economic and effective operation of our business.

COOKIES
The protection of personal data is very important to us. Our highest priority is dealing with it in a trustworthy and transparent way. Cookies that are technically required enable the website's basic functionality and usability. Among other things, these cookies ensure smooth navigation on the site. Cookies store, for instance, the language you have selected. The legal basis for the use of these cookies is Art. 6 para. 1 of the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We require this information in order to provide you with these online services.

HYPERLINKS
Some of our websites contain hyperlinks to websites of other providers. When activated, you will be redirected from our website directly to the website of other providers. You will recognize this by the change of URL, among other things. We cannot assume any responsibility for the handling of your data on these external websites, since we have no influence on the data processing of those companies. Please inform yourself directly on the websites of the companies about the use of your data.

USE OF RAPIDMAIL
Description and purpose: We use rapidmail to send e-mails and newsletters. The recipient of the data is rapidmail GmbH, Wentzingerstrasse, 21, 79106 Freiburg, Germany. Rapidmail is also used to organize and analyze the dispatch of newsletters. The data you enter in order to receive e-mails and newsletters is stored on the rapidmail servers in Germany. Should you not want any analysis by rapidmail, you can unsubscribe from e-mails and newsletters at any time. For analysis purposes, the e-mails sent with rapidmail contain a tracking pixel, which connects to the rapidmail servers once the e-mail is opened. This allows you to determine if an e-mail or newsletter message has been opened. Furthermore, with the help of rapidmail we can determine whether links are clicked on in the e-mail or newsletter message and which ones. All links in the e-mail are tracking links, with which your clicks can be counted.
Legal basis: The legal basis for data processing is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR.
Recipient: The recipient of the data is rapidmail GmbH.
Transmission to third countries: The data will not be transmitted to third countries.
Duration: We only store your data with your consent for the purpose of the newsletter until the purpose is fulfilled, until you are removed from the newsletter and after unsubscribing from the newsletter the data is deleted from our servers as well as from the rapidmail servers. Data we store for other purposes (e.g. e-mail addresses for the member area) remain unaffected by this.
Revocation option: You have the possibility of revoking your consent to data processing with effect for the future at any time.
Further data protection information: For more details, see rapidmail’s data security information at: https://www.rapidmail.de/datensicherheit. For more details about rapidmail’s analysis functions, go to the following website: https://www.rapidmail.de/wissen-und-hilfe

SECURITY MEASURES
KAP1 takes organizational, contractual and technical security measures in accordance with the state of the art to ensure that the regulations of the data protection laws are observed and to protect the data processed by us against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or against access by unauthorized persons.
The security measures include in particular the encrypted transmission of data between your browser and our server. Our website uses SSL or TLS encryption to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as requests that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" or by the lock symbol in your browser line.
However, we would like to point out that, due to the structure of the Internet, it is possible that the rules of data protection and the above-mentioned security measures may not be observed or circumvented by persons or institutions outside our area of responsibility. In particular, unencrypted data can be read by third parties - even if this is done by e-mail. We have no technical influence on this. Nowadays, it is also your responsibility to protect the data you provide against misuse by encrypting it or in any other way.
For this reason, every user is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, e.g. by telephone.

WHAT RIGHTS DO YOU HAVE REGARDING YOUR DATA?
Right of information
You have the right to request confirmation as to whether personal data relating to you are being processed and to request information about this data and further information and a copy of the data in accordance with Art. 15 DSGVO.
The right to complete and rectify data
In accordance with Art. 16 DSGVO, you have the right to request the completion of data concerning you or the correction of incorrect data concerning you. The right to erase and block data
Pursuant to Art. 17 DSGVO, you have the right to demand that data concerning you be deleted immediately or, alternatively, to demand a restriction on the processing of the data pursuant to Art. 18 DSGVO. Right to data transferability
You have the right to demand that we receive the data concerning you that you have provided to us in accordance with Art. 20 DSGVO and to demand that it be transferred to other responsible parties. Right of appeal to the competent supervisory authority
In the event of infringements of data protection law, the data subject has the right to appeal to the competent supervisory authority pursuant to Art. 77 DSGVO. The competent supervisory authority for data protection issues is the data protection officer of the federal state in which our company is based. A list of the data protection officers and their contact details can be found at the following link: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html. Right of revocation
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke an already given consent according to article 7 paragraph 3 DSGVO at any time with effect for the future. For this purpose, an informal e-mail notification to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation. Right of objection
You may object at any time to the future processing of the data concerning you in accordance with Art. 21 DSGVO. In particular, you may object to the processing of your data for the purposes of direct marketing.

DATA DELETION and DURATION OF STORAGE
The data stored with us are deleted as soon as they are no longer required for their intended purpose (e.g. conclusion of a search mandate) and the deletion does not conflict with any statutory storage obligations or other legitimate interests of KAP1 - for example, an obligation to provide evidence in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz - AGG) - or the user has expressly consented to longer storage. If an applicant has declared his consent to the storage of his personal data in our contact database, this data will be deleted as soon as the applicant revokes his consent to data storage by KAP1. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected. KAP1 may also delete the data, e.g. because the successful placement of an applicant is no longer to be expected. If the user's data are not deleted because they are required for other and legally permissible purposes, their processing will be restricted. This means that the data will be blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to user data that must be stored for commercial or tax reasons.
