Alongside easy, efficient operability, we consider the protection of your personal data to be a top priority. The protection of your privacy is a key concern for us when processing personal data and we take this into account in all our business processes.

These data are collected and processed to enable use of our Website (connecting). These data are retained exclusively for technical reasons, and at no point are they attributed to a specific person. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data to this extent is point (b) of Article 6(1) GDPR. The collection of these data serves to ensure system security and stability, as well as technical administration of the network infrastructure. The legal basis to this extent is point (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR. Our legitimate interest in data processing lies in ensuring that our Website functions properly, and that communication through the Website is properly handled. In relation to the foregoing, we cannot attribute this information to you personally.

2. Cookies and social plugins

​​​​​​​2.1. Cookies

We use cookies on our Website. These are small files which your browser automatically creates and which are stored on your terminal (PC, laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our Website.

Cookies are used to make your visit to our Website easier and more enjoyable. This is why we use session cookies to detect that you have already visited individual pages on our Website, or that you have already signed into your customer account. They are automatically deleted after you leave our Website.

We also use temporary cookies to enhance user-friendliness. These are stored on your terminal for a specific period. If you visit our site again to use our services, the system automatically detects that you have visited us previously, as well as your input and settings so that you do not need to enter them again.

The legal basis is point (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR. Our legitimate interest in using these cookies lies, as described, in optimizing Website settings for the terminal you are using, and in adapting the user interface.

We also use cookies to record statistics regarding the use of our Website, and to analyze these for the purposes of optimizing our Website to meet your needs, and to show information which is specifically tailored to your interests. If you visit our Website again, these cookies allow us to automatically see that you have visited the Website previously. These cookies are automatically deleted after a defined period. The legal basis for use of these cookies is point (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR. Our legitimate interest in data processing lies in conducting market research and disseminating personalized advertising.

Most browsers automatically accept cookies. You can configure your browser in such a way that no cookies are stored on your computer, or so that a prompt appears before a new cookie is created. Completely disabling cookies may, however, lead to some of the functions of our Website being lost.

 

2.2               Use of Google Analytics for Web analysis

In order to tailor our Website to your needs and for continuous optimization of the site, we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (https://www.google.de/contact/impressum.html). Pseudonymized user profiles are created and cookies used in this context. The information generated by the cookie through your use of the Website, e.g.

  • browser type/version,
  • operating system used,
  • referrer URL (previously visited site),
  • hostname of the accessing computer (IP address),
  • time of server request,

is transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The information is used to analyze use of the Website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide further services relating to website use and internet use for market research purposes and the customization of this Website to meet your needs. This information may also be sent to third parties, insofar as this is a statutory requirement or if third parties are contracted to process these data. Your IP address is never combined with other Google data. IP addresses are rendered anonymous to prevent attribution (IP masking).

You can prevent the installation of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; please note, however, that in this case you may not be able to use the functions of this Website to their full extent.

Furthermore, you can prevent the acquisition of data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the Website (including your IP address), as well as the processing of these data by Google, by downloading and installing a browser add-on from https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

As an alternative to the browser add-on, in particular for browsers on mobile terminals, you can also prevent recording by Google Analytics by clicking on the link at the end of this document. This sets an opt-out cookie which prevents any future recording of your data when visiting this Website. The opt-out cookie only applies on this browser and to our Website, and is stored on your device. If you delete cookies in this browser, you must reset the opt-out cookie.

More information on data protection in relation to Google Analytics can be found in the Google Analytics guide

https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

Google Analytics is used on the basis of our legitimate interest in tailoring the Website to your needs, statistical analysis, and the efficient advertising of our Website. The legal basis is point (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR.

LeadFeeder

We use LeadFeeder, a service provided by Liidio Oy, Mikonkatu 17 C, Helsinki 00100, Finland, on our website. LeadFeeder accesses the list of the website visitors' IP addresses provided by Google Analytics in the evaluation and links the list of IP addresses with information about the companies that can be found on the Internet under these IP addresses. Due to the shortening of the IP address of the website visitors already carried out when using Google Analytics, a direct personal reference is not made. One can only assume company visitors.

For further information on LeadFeeder and compliance with the GDPR see: https://help.leadfeeder.com/en/collections/49911-faqs-and-troubleshooting​​​​​​​

2.3 Google Tag Manager

This website uses Google Tag Manager, a solution offered by Google Inc. (Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland). Google Tag Manager allows various codes and services to be managed and more easily integrated into the website. Google Tag Manager is a cookie-free domain that does not collect any personal data itself but rather triggers other tags that may collect data under certain circumstances. Google Tag Manager does not access these data. Insofar as a deactivation has been implemented by the user on a domain or cookie level, this applies to all tracking cookies that are implemented with Google Tag Manager.

For more information about Google Tag Manager see https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html and https://policies.google.com/privacy.

The legal basis for the aforementioned processing of personal data is Article 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR.

 

3. Processing of personal data in an online job application

We offer an easy way to apply for jobs through an online application process, which is provided centrally by Zeppelin GmbH for all Zeppelin companies (see contact options indicated there).

Your personal data is processed and used exclusively within the application process and for the purposes of recruitment by the Zeppelin company to which you have applied. The legal basis for this is Section 26 Paragraph 1 new Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz, BDSG).

Insofar as we supply your application data during the application process to department managers or HR department employees of other companies in the Zeppelin Group, we will ask for your consent in advance. The legal basis for this is your consent pursuant to point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR, which you may withdraw at any time with immediate effect.

We generally prefer applications to be submitted using the online form. This is quick, easy, and saves paper. In exceptional cases we will, however, accept applications by e-mail or post. Following receipt, these are immediately entered manually into the e-Recruiting System by HR department employees of the Zeppelin Group; therefore, the data protection information for online applications is also relevant to these types of applications. 

If you have not found a suitable position at Zeppelin, we offer the “Job Alert” function. You can enter your search parameters and e-mail address here and we will notify you by e-mail as soon as we advertise one or more suitable positions. When registering for Job Alert, you will be asked to give your consent to the retention of the data that you have entered, and to allow use of these data for the purpose of sending information by email. The legal basis is point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR. You may withdraw your consent at any time with immediate effect.

Insofar as we process your data for the purposes of accepting and handling your requests as described above, you shall be contractually obliged to provide us with these data. Without your data, we are unable to process your application. 

4. Data security

All data sent by you personally, including your payment details, are transferred using the generally accepted and secure SSL (Secure Socket Layer) standard. SSL is a reliable and proven standard which is used e.g. in online banking.

A secure SSL connection can be identified by the “s” suffixed to the http (i.e. ...) in the address bar of your browser or by the lock icon in the lower pane of your browser.

We also take suitable technical and organizational security measures to protect your retained personal data against destruction, loss, alteration or unauthorized disclosure or access. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological development.

5. Validity and amendment of this data protection policy
The current data protection statement can be accessed, saved and printed at any time on our Website at http://zeppelin-ballastwatertreatment.com/privacy-policy.html. This data protection statement is currently valid, and can be amended by us at any time and updated on this Website. We therefore recommend that you visit our Website from time to time to keep abreast of any updates to our data protection statement.

6.​​​​​​​4. Right to erasure

Under the provisions set out in Article 17 GDPR, as the data subject you have the right to demand the erasure of personal data without undue delay. These provisions in particular provide for the right of erasure if the personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed, and in cases of unlawful processing, the presence of an objection, or for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or member state law to which we are subject.

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you pursuant to point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR, in accordance with Article 21 GDPR.

6.7. Withdrawal of consent

You also have the right at any time to withdraw the provided declaration of consent with regard to data protection with immediate effect. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the legality of any processing based on the consent which took place up to the withdrawal thereof.

We do not use automated processing methods for decision-making – including profiling.

 

8. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, if you are of the opinion that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the applicable data protection law. The competent supervisory authority in our case is

Der Hamburgische Beauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit, Klosterwall 6 (Block C), 20095 Hamburg, Deutschland

You can use the following email address for email communication with the supervisory authority: mailboxnoSpam@noSpamdatenschutz.hamburg.de

 

9. Storage period for personal data/erasure of personal data

In general, we erase or render anonymous your personal data as soon as they are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which we have collected or otherwise processed them in accordance with the foregoing clauses, unless continued storage of your personal data is required to fulfill a legal obligation.

Specifically, we retain different categories of data for the periods listed below (we will retain your data for a longer period if we are obliged to do in light of statutory retention periods).

  • The personal data we have collected for use of the contact form are automatically erased within six months following completion of your request, unless you have consented to their continued storage.

If you have applied for a position at a company within the Zeppelin Group which has its registered office in Germany or Austria, your data will be erased no later than six months following the conclusion of the application process. Your data will only be retained beyond this period if you are appointed following the end of the application process, and your employee data is transferred from the e-Recruiting System into the relevant HR administration system, or if you have explicitly consented to a longer storage period.

 

10. Change of purpose

Your personal data will only be used for purposes other than those described insofar as this is permitted by law, or if you have consented to a change of data processing purpose. In the case that data are processed for purposes other than those for which the data were originally collected, we shall inform you of this different purpose prior to the processing, and shall provide you with all information relevant thereto.

 

11. Disclosure of data to third parties/recipients of data

The personal data that we collect and retain shall never be used by us for sale, trade or loan, and we shall not disclose your personal data to third parties unless we are have a statutory obligation to do so. Data may be disclosed e.g. to assert a claim, in the exercise or defense of legal claims, to investigate unlawful use of our Website or products, or for prosecution of a claim (insofar as there are reasonable grounds to suspect unlawful or unfair conduct). Data may also be disclosed for the enforcement of Terms and Conditions of Use or other agreements. We are also obliged to grant access to certain public bodies on request. These include law enforcement authorities, authorities which prosecute administrative offenses, and tax authorities. These data are disclosed on the basis of our legitimate interest in combating misuse, the prosecution of offenses, and the securing, assertion and enforcement of claims. The legal basis is point (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR.

Your data shall also be disclosed if you have consented to that. The legal basis to this extent is point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR.

We rely on contractually bound third-party companies and external service providers (“processors”) to supply our range of products and services. In such cases, personal data are disclosed to these processors to enable further processing thereof. These processors are carefully selected and regularly checked to ensure that your privacy remains protected. The processors may only use the data for the specified purposes, and are also contractually obliged to handle your data in compliance with this data protection statement and the German data protection laws.

Data is disclosed to processors on the basis of Article 28(1) GDPR, alternatively on the basis of our legitimate interest in the economic and technical benefits provided by the use of specialized processors, and based on the fact that your rights and interests in protecting your personal data are not overridden, point (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR. If necessary, we shall obtain your consent to disclose your personal data to processors, in which case point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR forms the legal basis.
