Principles

IMAG GmbH thanks you for visiting our website and for your interest in our company and our products. We take the protection of your private data seriously and we want you to feel comfortable when visiting our Internet pages. The protection of your privacy is of the utmost importance to us. Therefore it goes without saying that we comply with statutory provisions for data protection and of course our employees are obligated to treat all information confidentially. In the sections below, we would like to briefly explain how we protect your data and what it means for you when you make use of our online offers.

Access data

When our Internet pages are being called up, IMAG GmbH receives access data which is stored for protective purposes that basically allows us to identify you. This data includes

• the name of your Internet service provider
• the country you come from
• the website you come from to visit us
• the search term you use, if you come to our site via a search engine
• the websites of ours that you visit
• the user tool (web browser, operating system) you use to access us
• files that you download from our site (e.g. PDF or Word documents)
• the duration of your visit
• the date and time of your visit

This will enable us to optimize our offerings as a whole and to adjust the content specifically for you, e.g. recognize you as a returning visitor. If you have an existing data set, the new data can be allocated to this data set in many cases.

Personal data

Personal data is information that is used explicitly to determine your identity. It includes information such as your name and your postal or e-mail address. The only time we save personal data in addition to your access data is if you give us this information voluntarily, e.g. as part of a registration, a survey, a prize competition, a contact inquiry, an application for a newsletter or to process an online order. Moreover, personal data is used only to the extent necessary and only for the legally permissible purpose for which you gave your consent. To ensure the secure transmission of your data, IMAG GmbH employs encryption procedures in secure areas. This means that communication between your browser and our order system, for instance, cannot be read by others on the Internet.

Passing on personal data to third parties

IMAG GmbH renders some of its services together with selected partners. These partners are subject to the same strict statutory provisions for data protection. Personal data is only passed on

• when processing order-related data, such as for online orders
• in exceptional cases, provided you have given your prior consent

Additional information – such as voluntary statements about your primary areas of interest – is not passed on to third parties by IMAG GmbH. Personal data is conveyed to state institutions and authorities only within the scope of statutory or judicial obligations.

Power of revocation

If you request in writing that IMAG GmbH or the representative responsible for you correct, cease from using or delete your personal data, we shall of course do so immediately.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files which are used by many websites in Germany and throughout the world. Cookies are created during your visit to our website and are placed on your hard disk by our server. Our cookies contain no information about specific individuals. Moreover, cookies placed by our servers can only be read again by us and not by any external website.

Please be sure to take your browser's individual setting possibilities into account. Naturally, you can also view our website without cookies. However, doing so may limit the way our offers work.

Piwik

This website uses the Piwik open source web analysis service. Piwik uses so-called "cookies". These are text files saved on the computer of the user in order to analyze the usage of the website.

If you disagree with the storage and use of your data, you can deactivate the storage and use here. In this case, an opt-out cookie is stored in your browser, which prevents the storage of user data by Piwik. If you delete your cookies, this may result in the Piwik opt-out cookie also being deleted. The opt-out needs to be reactivated when our website is visited again.
