VISITING OUR WEBSITE

When you visit our website www.neory.com, the browser on your device automatically sends information to the server hosting our website. This information is temporarily stored in a so-called log file. The following information is collected without your intervention and stored until it is automatically deleted, typically after one week:

  • IP address of the requesting computer,

  • Date and time of access,

  • Make our website more user-friendly,

  • Evaluate the security and stability of the system

  • Investigate any possible unlawful access to our website (DoS/DDoS attacks, etc.) and

  • Other administrative purposes.

 

The legal basis for this data processing is Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The purposes listed above constitute legitimate interests as defined by GDPR. We will not typically use the data collected to identify you. However, we reserve the right to do so if this becomes necessary to investigate unlawful access to our website.

COMMUNICATION

If you have any questions, you can contact us by telephone or by email. If you provide us with personal data through these channels or our website (e.g. by using the contact form), we will store and use this data on the basis of Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR solely to process your query or on the basis of Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract. You may revoke your consent to the processing of your personal data at any time. All you need to do is send an email to privacy@neory.com. We will erase your data insofar as this does not conflict with statutory retention requirements (for example, if you send us a pre-contractual message using the contact form and we then establish a contractual relationship with you, or if your message refers to an existing contractual relationship).

The newsletter is sent by the software newsletter2go belonging to the mailing provider Sendinblue GmbH, Köpenicker Str. 126, 10179 Berlin.

GOOGLE MAPS

On this website we use the Google Maps API to display an interactive map and a route planner. Google Maps is a mapping service developed by Google Inc.,1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google").

 

By using Google Maps, information about your use of the website (including your IP address) may be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the US. Google may also pass this information collected by Google Maps on to third parties where this is required by law or if third parties process the data on Google's behalf. To cover cases where personal data are transmitted to the US, Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield.

 

Google will never associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. Nevertheless, it would be technically possible for Google to, at the very least, identify individual users on the basis of the data collected. It would be possible for personal data and profiles of users of the Google website to be processed for other purposes over which we have no influence. You can disable the Google Maps service to prevent data transfer to Google by disabling JavaScript in your browser. Please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use the map feature of this website.

 

We use Google Maps to enhance the appeal of our website and to make locations specified on our website easier to find. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

 

For more information about how Google handles user data, please refer to Google's privacy policy:

The website contains links to social media platforms or other providers operated by third parties. However, a link to such a third-party provider will only be established after you have clicked on the corresponding button (link) on the website. We have no influence over the processing of personal data by these providers. For this reason, we refer you to the privacy policies of the respective operators:

ROUTINE ERASURE AND BLOCKING OF PERSONAL DATA

Any data that we store on the basis of your consent will only be stored until you withdraw your consent. Data which we need for the performance of a contract will be stored only for the duration of our contractual relationship or to comply with statutory retention requirements. We will only store data we use on the basis of our legitimate interests for as long as our interests are not overridden by your interests to have the data erased or anonymised.

DATA PROTECTION MEASURES

Taking into account the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risks of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, we implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure and to be able to demonstrate that processing is performed in accordance with statutory requirements. Those measures shall be implemented taking into account the state of the art and include, in particular, encryption. The equipment and systems used to process data are protected against unauthorised access, both physically and digitally. In particular, our servers and the servers of our contractors are password-protected and encrypted. Only employees have access to personal data to the extent necessary to perform their duties. Our employees receive data processing training before commencing work and are obliged to maintain confidentiality. Regular backups protect the data from loss and can be restored at any time. The default system settings ensure that only personal data needed for the respective processing purpose is processed. In this way, we apply data protection principles such as data minimisation. In addition, we use technical and organisational measures to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of the systems. Compliance with data protection regulations is routinely monitored and the measures are updated as and when necessary.
