Further data protection notices and information

Use of cookies

A cookie is a small file that is stored on a visitor’s computer as soon as he or she calls up a website. A distinction is made between persistent cookies and session cookies. The website uses both session cookies and persistent cookies which are used on the basis of §25 (2) TTDSG and are necessary for the functioning of the website and therefore do not require active consent.

In addition, services such as Google Maps or YouTube are integrated into the website. However, these services can only be used if you have expressly consented to their use. Without corresponding consent according to §25 (1) TTDSG or Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO, the services cannot set cookies or transmit data.

A cookie consent solution is integrated into the website, which uses a persistent cookie to remember your decision regarding cookies, services and scripts. If you generally prevent cookies from being set by means of additional software, a plug-in in your browser or system settings, you will regularly be asked for your preferences when you visit the website, as it is then not possible to save your selection.

Recommendation: If you generally want to prevent or restrict the setting of cookies and the collection of your personal data on the Internet, velixX GmbH recommends that you use a browser plug-in such as “Ghostery” (https://www.ghostery.com/en/download), with which you can selectively or completely prevent the activities of beacons, trackers, cookies and similar technical procedures for data collection across all web pages in your browser or generally for all web pages automatically reject the setting of certain cookies.

Fonts

Insofar as we use special fonts on our website, these are stored on our own web server. There is no linking to third-party providers, especially providers in third countries for which an adequate level of data protection is not ensured.

Server data (website is hosted by the provider).

On the web server, information about the retrieved resources and the connections between the server and the user’s device are stored in the form of log files. This storage usually includes software-related error logs, insofar as corresponding errors occur. This data is usually stored by the operator of the web server used for technical reasons, to establish communication and for the purpose of error detection, optimization of display and transmission speed.

A statistical analysis of the log files usually also takes place there, but only for the detection of cyber attacks and their defense.No further analyses are carried out, nor are user profiles generated or created.The website is hosted by the provider Host Europe GmbH, Friesenplatz 4, D-50672 Cologne.The current privacy policy of the provider can be found under the link:

https://www.hosteurope.de/AGB/Datenschutzerklaerung/

There is no further use of the log files / server data. In particular, no user profiles are created. velixX GmbH has no access to so-called server data that is collected by the provider.

Linked URL addresses / social networks

Within the scope of the links to other websites (URL addresses) available on the website, in particular to so-called social networks, you will leave the website https://www.velixx.com.According to §19 (3) TTDSG, the transfer to another service provider must be indicated. This obligation is taken into account by the fact that the links are to be recognized as such in each case. In the case of forwarding or linking to other websites, the technical realization of the web offer lies outside the area of responsibility of velixX GmbH. It is expressly pointed out that such third-party providers may use so-called trackers, beacons or cookies, which are used to examine the surfing behavior of site visitors. In this regard, reference is made to the privacy policy of the respective third-party provider. Furthermore, explicit reference is made here to the so-called Facebook ruling of the Schleswig-Holstein Administrative Court with the file number 8 A 37/12, 8 A 14/12, 8 A 218/11. velixX GmbH has no influence on how the linked pages are set up and what data is collected there. Furthermore, velixX GmbH also has no access to data collected by third parties using cookies, trackers, beacons or other methods.

Scripts or so-called plug-ins from social network providers are not integrated into the https://www.velixx.com website. Insofar as external content can be accessed, this content can only be accessed from the https://www.velixx.com site via normal links, irrespective of whether it is a so-called social network or not.Assume that operators of social networks use cookies and tracking technologies.If you are already logged into a social network in another browser window and follow a corresponding link on our page to this network, you will usually be identified there immediately. We therefore explicitly refer to the information on data protection of the corresponding providers.

Recommendation: velixX GmbH. recommends the use of a browser plug-in such as “Ghostery” (https://www.ghostery.com/en/download), with which you can selectively or completely prevent the activities of beacons, trackers, cookies and similar technical procedures for data collection across websites in your browser.

For further information, please refer to the chapter “Use of cookies”.Insofar as you have consented to the use and thus also to a transfer of data to the providers of the corresponding services, you can revoke your consent at any time. To do so, you can access the “Privacy settings” entry in the main menu of the website.

Google Maps and YouTube are services of the company Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94943 USA.

You can find more information about services of the provider Google here: http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/terms/regional.html.
