Privacy Notice

GENERAL

The following information is intended to give you an overview of how we process your personal data and of your data protection rights when you visit our Italian-language company website rapunzel.de/it/ here. We will inform you separately about data processing when you visit other websites of our company, for example in other countries.

The use of rapunzel.de/it/ is generally possible without entering personal data. However, if you want to use special services via our website or other options, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain your consent.

As the responsible party, we always try to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website by means of up-to-date technical and organizational measures, just as we attach great importance to security and data protection friendliness in our other processing activities. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can have security gaps, so that absolute protection against unauthorized access by third parties cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, you are free to contact us by telephone or mail, for example, and to transmitpersonal data to us in this way as well.

DATA PROTECTION OFFICER

If you have any questions about data processing here or about data protection at RAPUNZEL Naturkost GmbH & Co. KG (Rapunzel), you can contact our data protection officer at any time.
You can reach him by mail to the above address (please note 'Attn. Data Protection Officer' on the envelope), by e-mail to datenschutzbeauftragter@rapunzel.de or confidentially via our data protection portal.

TRANSFER OF DATA TO THIRD PARTIES

We do not transfer your personal data to third parties for purposes other than those listed below when you visit our website. We only pass on your personal data to third parties if:

you have given us your express consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO,
the disclosure is permissible for the protection of our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in the non-disclosure of your data,
in the event that there is a legal obligation to disclose your data in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. c DSGVO, as well as
this is legally permissible and necessary according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO for the processing of contractual relationships with you.

Within the scope of the processing operations described in this privacy policy, personal data may be transferred to the USA. The USA does not have an adequate level of data protection (ECJ: Schrems II ruling). In particular, US investigating authorities can oblige US companies to hand over or disclose personal data without the data subjects being able to take effective legal action against this. Thus, in principle, there is a possibility that your personal data will be processed by U.S. investigative authorities. We have no influence on these processing activities. To protect your data, we have concluded agreements on order processing based on the standard contractual clauses of the European Commission. If the standard contractual clauses are not sufficient to establish an adequate level of security, your consent pursuant to Art. 49 (1) a) DSGVO may serve as the legal basis for the transfer to third countries. This may not apply to data transfers to third countries for which the European Commission has issued an adequacy decision pursuant to Article 45 of the GDPR.

Hosting by Datagroup Ulm

We host our website at DATAGROUP Ulm GmbH, Magirus-Deutz-Straße 17, 89077 Ulm, a subsidiary of DATAGROUP SE, Pliezhausen near Stuttgart. When you visit our website, your personal data (e.g. IP addresses in log files) are processed on DATAGROUP's servers. DATAGROUP is used on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in the most reliable presentation, provision and security of our website. We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) with DATAGROUP in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. This is a contract prescribed by data protection law, which ensures that DATAGROUP processes the personal data of our website visitors only in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR. Data protection provisions: https://www.datagroup.de/datenschutz/.

SSL/TLS ENCRYPTION

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption to ensure the security of data processing and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders, login data or contact requests that you send to us as the operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser contains a "https://" instead of a "http://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line. We use this technology to protect your transmitted data.

DATA COLLECTION WHEN VISITING THE WEBSITE

When you use our website for informational purposes only, i.e. when you do not register or otherwise transmit information to us, we collect only such data as your browser transmits to our server (in so-called "server log files"). Our website collects a series of general data and information with each call of a page by you or by an automated system. This general data and information is stored in the server log files. The following can be recorded

browser types and versions used,
the operating system used by the accessing system,
the website from which an accessing system arrives at our website (so-called referrer),
the sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website,
the date and time of an access to the Internet site,
an Internet protocol address (anonymized IP address) and,
the Internet service provider of the accessing system.

When using this general data and information, we do not draw any conclusions about your person. Rather, this information is required in order to

deliver the contents of our Internet site correctly,
to optimize the content of our website as well as the advertising for it,
to ensure the long-term operability of our IT systems and the technology of our website, and
to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack.

Therefore, the data and information collected will be used by us for statistical purposes only and, on the other hand, for the purpose of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise so as to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from any personal data provided by a data subject.

The legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO. Our legitimate interest follows from the purposes for data collection listed above.

HOSTING BY DATAGROUP

We have concluded an order processing agreement (AVV) pursuant to Art. 28 DSGVO with DATAGROUP.

Through this tool, "website tags" (i.e. keywords that are embedded in HTML elements) can be implemented and managed via an interface. By using the Google Tag Manager, we can automatically track which button, link or personalized image you have actively clicked on and can then determine which contents of our website are of particular interest to you. The tool also triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If you have opted out at the domain or cookie level, this will remain in effect for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager. These processing operations are carried out exclusively when explicit consent is given in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO. Privacy policy of Google: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

YouTube is an Internet video portal that allows video publishers to post video clips free of charge and other users to view, rate and comment on them, also free of charge. YouTube allows the publication of all types of videos, which is why complete film and television programs, but also music videos, trailers or videos made by users themselves can be accessed via the Internet portal. Each time you call up one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by us and on which a YouTube component (YouTube video) has been integrated, the Internet browser on your IT system is automatically prompted by the respective YouTube component to download a representation of the corresponding YouTube component from YouTube.
Further information about YouTube can be found at https://about.youtube/. Within the scope of this technical procedure, YouTube and Google receive information about which specific sub-page of our website is visited by you.

If you are logged in to YouTube at the same time, YouTube recognizes which specific subpage of our website you are visiting when you call up a subpage that contains a YouTube video. This information is collected by YouTube and Google and assigned to your YouTube account. YouTube and Google always receive information via the YouTube component that you have visited our website if you are logged into YouTube at the same time as calling up our website; this takes place regardless of whether you click on a YouTube video or not. If you do not want this information to be transmitted to YouTube and Google, you can prevent the transmission by logging out of your YouTube account before accessing our website. These processing operations are only carried out if you have given your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. Data protection information from YouTube: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=it.

c) Display of YouTube films
In order to be able to inform you about news, projects and initiatives around RAPUNZEL in a more comprehensive and appealing way, we have made video recordings of various engagements available for you on the portal of YouTube. To view our videos, we offer you to go directly to YouTube via an embedded preview image for the respective video, which is displayed on the website, and to watch the film there. For this purpose, they leave this website of RAPUNZEL. We do not transfer any personal data to YouTube.

a) Contact via contact forms
In case of questions of any kind, we offer you the possibility to contact us via one of the forms provided on the website. On the one hand, this is our general form for contact inquiries for general questions and one for complaints about products.
First of all, a valid e-mail address and a name are required so that we know from whom the inquiry originates and so that we can answer it. Which further data is collected can be seen from the respective contact form.

If you have a complaint about a product and use the form for this purpose, we request further data from you so that we can assign the complaint to a specific order and, if applicable, to a specific product batch, in particular your address. This enables us to clearly allocate orders to the processing of complaints and to be able to send you replacement products without having to ask for your data again. If you do not wish to do this, you can also contact us by telephone or via the general contact form. If you make a callback request, it is necessary to provide a telephone number so that our contact persons can contact you.

The information you provide in the form fields will be stored and used solely for the purpose of responding to your request or for contacting you and the associated technical administration. The legal basis for the processing of the data is our legitimate interest in responding to your request in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. If your contact aims at the conclusion or reclamation of a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO.

We have secured our forms with a simple check question that does not require data processing or transfer to third parties. You can attach files, such as photos, to the forms. The information submitted is transmitted to us in a secure manner.
Your data will be deleted after your request has been processed. This is the case if the circumstances indicate that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified and provided that there are no legal storage obligations to the contrary. Alternatively, you can contact us directly and informally and request us to delete your data.

b) Contact via e-mail
If you contact us via one of the e-mail addresses provided by us, the personal data provided by you will be processed exclusively for the purpose of processing your respective inquiry, for correspondence with you, as well as for the possible initiation and substantiation of a contract, for inquiries for products and complaints, etc. with you in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b) DSGVO. The personal data collected will be automatically deleted once your inquiry has been dealt with; this is the case if the circumstances indicate that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified and provided that there are no legal obligations to retain data.

We provide you with a wide range of information for download on our various pages. You will find our Rapunzel media database as well as our data protection information on our German company page.

If we use tracking techniques when using our e-papers in order to improve our offers for you with analyses of usage data, we do this exclusively after your voluntary consent to this, which can be revoked at any time for the future, in accordance with Art. 6 (1) a) DSGVO.

OUR ACTIVITIES IN SOCIAL NETWORKS

a) Links to media appearances
No plug-ins or other interfaces of social media are integrated on our website, nor are any analytics of the services. We only link to our general company appearances on the services of Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, YouTube and LinkedIn, which are provided with a symbol. These channels are used by our company primarily in German. After clicking on the links, you will be forwarded to the page of the respective provider, i.e. only then will user information be transferred to the respective provider. For information on how your personal data is handled when using these websites, please refer to the respective provider's privacy policy.

b) Presence on social networks
We use the aforementioned social networks to inform users about our products and information offers, to discuss with interested parties and to bring our entrepreneurial, ecological, economic, social and political actions closer to our interested parties and to publicize recipes and news.

You can contact us directly via the respective platform at your own request and instigation. The aforementioned social media channels complement our web presence and offer a further, supplementary information and communication option.
As soon as you access the respective Rapunzel social media profile in the corresponding network, the terms and conditions and data protection information of the respective operator apply. We only process visitor data on the social media sites ourselves if you contact and communicate with us, for example through comments or direct messages.
The responsible parties of the respective platforms carry out the data processing for their own purposes in accordance with their own privacy policy, over which we have no influence. Furthermore, we do not know the full extent of the data processing, its purposes or storage periods. In certain cases, we process your data with the social network provider on the basis of joint responsibility within the meaning of Art. 26 DSGVO.
A processing of your personal data is necessary for the purpose of the use of the Social-Media platform by yourself.

In this context, we are not the original provider of these pages, but merely use them within the scope of the possibilities offered to us by the respective providers. As a precaution, we therefore point out that your data may also be processed outside the European Union or the European Economic Area. Use may therefore be associated with data protection risks for you, as safeguarding your rights, e.g. to information, deletion, objection, etc., could be more difficult and processing in the social networks often takes place directly for advertising purposes or for the analysis of user behavior by the providers, without this being able to be influenced by us. If usage profiles are created by the provider, this often involves the use of cookies or the assignment of usage behavior to your own member profile of the social networks.
The described processing of personal data is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) f DSGVO on the basis of our legitimate interest and the legitimate interest of the respective provider in order to communicate with you in a timely manner or to inform you about our services.

If you have to give your consent to data processing as a user with the respective providers, the legal basis refers to Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO in connection with Art. 7 DSG-VO. Art. 7 DSG-VO.
Since we do not have access to the providers' databases, we would like to point out that it is best to assert your rights (e.g. to information, correction, deletion, etc.) directly with the respective provider despite a possible joint responsibility with the social media portal operators.
Further information on the processing of your data in the social networks and the possibility to make use of your right of objection or revocation (so-called opt-out), we have listed below with the respective provider of social networks used by us.

Matomo QR Code Tracking

To track campaigns using QR codes, we use techniques from Matomo - a service provided by InnoCraft Ltd, 150 Willis St, 6011 Wellington, New Zealand. Matomo is a software tool for web analysis, i.e. for the collection, compilation and evaluation of data on the behavior of visitors to websites. We only evaluate how often which QR codes are scanned by visitors and which interactions with our pages take place as a result. We use the information to understand the behavior on our site, to evaluate the use of our subpages and to make possible improvements to our campaigns.

IP addresses are anonymized to ensure the privacy of our users. We do not collect any personal data from QR code users and do not track individual users. Our analyses are used exclusively for feedback analysis and to optimize our offers and assess the success of our campaigns. We are not interested in the identities of our visitors or other data.

We have therefore set Matomo so that it does not use cookies. We also do not use so-called "device fingerprinting". No profiling or retargeting takes place.

Matomo is hosted on our own servers, which ensures that the data remains within the EU and that no data is passed on to third parties.

In the case of QR code tracking, Matomo processes the anonymized IP addresses of visitors.
The legal basis for our processing is Art. 6 I lit. f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in the security and technically appropriate design of the functionality of our pages and in the non-personalized evaluation of our campaigns.

Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of Matomo can be found here: https://matomo.org/privacy-policy.
