Data protection declaration

We support the protection of our users’ privacy. This means that the Jokey Group places particular value on data protection. In principal, it is possible to access the Jokey Group web pages without entering any personal data. If an individual wishes to use particular services provided by our company via our website, the processing of personal data may become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we will typically ask for the consent of the data subject.

The processing of an individual’s personal data, such as name, address, e-mail address or telephone number, will always be processed in accordance with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the country-specific data protection provisions that apply to our company. Through this data protection declaration, our company would like to inform the public of the way, scope and purpose in which we retrieve, use and process personal data. Furthermore, this data protection declaration will provide data subjects with clarity on their vested rights in this area.

As the controller, the Jokey Group has implemented a variety of technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible for personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, gaps in protection can always appear when data is transferred via the internet, meaning absolute security cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, the data subject is also free to submit personal data to us in alternative ways, such as in writing.

Definition of terms

The Jokey Group data protection declaration is based on terminology used by the European directive and regulatory body when adopting the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration should be easily readable and comprehensible for both the public and our customers and business partners. In order to ensure this, we would like to first define the terminology used.

We use the following terms (among others) in the data protection declaration:

Personal data

Personal data shall mean any information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person (referred to hereafter as the “data subject”). A natural person shall be regarded as identifiable if they can be identified directly or indirectly, particularly through assignment to an identifier such as a name, to a code, to location data, to an online identifier or to one or more special features which are an expression of the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity of this natural person.

Data subject

The data subject shall mean every identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is being processed by the controller.

Processing

Processing shall mean any operation or set of operations which is performed upon personal data, whether or not by automatic means, such as collection, recording, organization, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, blocking, erasure or destruction.

Restriction of processing

The restriction of processing shall mean the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting its future processing.

Pseudonymisation

Pseudonymisation shall mean the processing of personal data in such a way that the data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that this additional information is stored separately and the technical and organisational measures are in place to ensure that the personal data cannot be attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

Controller

Controller shall mean the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or any other body which alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. If the purposes and means of this processing are stipulated in EU law or the law of Member States, the controller, or rather the specific criteria he outlines, can be laid down in accordance with EU or Member State law.

Processor

Processor shall mean a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or any other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

Recipient

Recipient shall mean a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or any other body to whom data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. Public authorities who receive personal data as part of a particular investigation mandate in accordance with EU or Member State law do not however qualify as recipients.

Third party

Third party shall mean a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor and the persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or the processor, are authorised to process the personal data.

Consent

Consent shall mean any declaration of intent freely submitted by the data subject in an informed way and without ambiguity for a specific instance, submitted in the form of a declaration or other clear act of confirmation, with which the data subject makes clear that they are in agreement with the processing of their personal data.

Address of the controller

The controller, in accordance with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as well as other data protection laws and other provisions of a data protection law nature that are applicable in the Member States of the European Union, is:

Cookies

The Jokey Group website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are deposited and stored on a computer system via an Internet browser.

Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier for the cookie. This consists of a character string through which websites and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie has been stored. This enables the visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers containing other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognised and identified via the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, Jokey Group can make more user-friendly services available to those using the website which would otherwise not be possible.

With cookies, information and offers on our website can be optimised for the user. Cookies allow us, as already mentioned, to identify who is using our website. The purpose of this identification is to make our website easier to use. For example, the user of a website that uses cookies need not re-enter their access data each time they visit the website, as this is done by the website and the cookie stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the cookie used in the shopping basket in the online shop. The online shop notes which items the customer has placed in the virtual basket by using a cookie.

The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by correspondingly adjusting the Internet browser setting they use; this then permanently blocks the use of cookies. In addition, cookies already set can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in their Internet browser completely, it is possible that not all functions of our website will be fully usable.

The collection of general data and information

The Jokey Group web page collects a range of general data and information every time the web page is called up by a data subject or automated system. This general data and information is saved in the server log files. The following information can be collected: type and version of browser used, the operating system used by the system accessing the website, the website from which a system accessing our website has gained access (so-called referrer), the sub-sites which lead an accessing system to our website, the date and time of an access to the website, the Internet Protocol address (IP address), the internet service provider of the accessing system and other similar data and information which serves to limit risk in the event of attacks on our IT systems.

When using general data and information, the Jokey Group draws no conclusions related to the data subject. Rather, this information is required in order to display the content of our website correctly, to optimise our website content and advertising, to ensure the long-term functionality of our IT systems and our website technology as well as to provide law enforcement authorities with the necessary information to lead to prosecution in the event of an attack on our IT systems. This anonymously collected data and information is evaluated by the Jokey Group on the one hand as statistical matter but also with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company, so that we can ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data which we process. The anonymous data of the server log-files is separated from all personal data provided by the data subject.

(1) With your consent, you can subscribe to the Controller’s newsletter, which will inform you about the Controller’s current interesting offers. The advertised goods and services are named in the consent form.

(2) The so-called double opt-in procedure is used for the subscription to the newsletter of the Controller. This means that after you subscribe, an e-mail will be sent to the e-mail address you provided, in which you will be asked to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. If you do not confirm your subscription within 24 hours, your information will be suspended and automatically deleted after one month. In addition, the Controller stores your respective IP addresses used and times of subscription and confirmation. The purpose of the procedure is to be able to prove your subscription and, if necessary, to clarify a possible misuse of your personal data.

(3) The only mandatory information for sending the newsletter is your e-mail address. The provision of further, separately marked data is voluntary and will be used to address you personally. After your confirmation, the Controller will store your e-mail address for the purpose of sending you the newsletter. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a of the GDPR.

(4) You can revoke your consent to the sending of the newsletter at any time and unsubscribe from the newsletter. You can declare the revocation by clicking on the link provided in every newsletter e-mail, by e-mail to marketing@jokey.com or by sending a message to the contact details given in the imprint.

(5) The Controller would like to inform you that your user behavior will be evaluated when sending the newsletter. For this evaluation, the emails sent contain so-called web beacons or tracking pixels, which are single-pixel image files stored on the website of the Controller. For the evaluations, the Controller links the above data and the web beacons with your e-mail address and a unique ID. The data is collected exclusively pseudonymously, i.e. the IDs are not linked to your other personal data, and direct personal reference is excluded. You may object to this tracking at any time by clicking on the separate link provided in each email or by informing the Controller via another contact channel. The information will be stored as long as you have subscribed to the newsletter. After unsubscribing, the controller stores the data purely statistically and anonymously.

(6) The Controller uses an external service provider for the dispatch of newsletters. A separate order data processing agreement has been concluded with the service provider to ensure the protection of your personal data. Currently, the Controller cooperates with the following service provider:

CleverReach
CleverReach GmbH & Co. KG
Mühlenstr. 43, 26180 Rastede

Right to deletion / Right to be forgotten

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European directive and regulatory body, to demand from the controller the immediate deletion of personal data relating to them, provided one of the following reasons applies and as long as the processing is not necessary:

The personal data has been collected or otherwise processed for such purposes for which it is no longer necessary.
The data subject revokes their consent, on which the processing was based in accordance with Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2) a) GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
The data subject submits an objection to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR, and there are no legitimate reasons for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 (2) GDPR.
The personal data was processed unlawfully.
The erasure of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation under the European Union or national law to which the controller is subject.
The personal data was collected in relation to information society services offered in accordance with Art. 8 (1) GDPR

The processing is unlawful; the data subject has not consented to the deletion of the personal data and demands instead that the use of the data be restricted.
The controller no longer requires the personal data for processing purposes, but the data subject needs it to enforce, exercise or defend their rights.
The data subject has contested the processing in accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR and it has not yet been ascertained whether the justification given by the controller will outweigh that of the data subject.

The Jokey Group data protection officer or another employee will arrange for the processing to be restricted.

In addition, when exercising their right to transfer the data in accordance with Art. 20 (1) GDPR, the data subject has the right to demand that their personal data be transmitted directly from one controller to another controller, provided that the technical requirements for this are available and this does not affect the rights and freedoms of other persons.

Automated decisions in individual cases

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European directive and regulatory body, to object to being subject to an exclusively automated decision which has a legal impact on them or adversely affects them in a similar manner, provided that the decision is not necessary to fulfil a contract between the data subject and controller, or it is permissible on the grounds of EU legislation or Member State law to which the controller is subject, and this legislation contains reasonable measures to protect the rights and freedoms as well as legitimate interests of the data subject, or it occurs with the express consent of the data subject.

If the decision is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract between the data subject and the controller or it occurs with the express consent of the data subject, the Jokey Group shall take reasonable measures to protects the right and freedoms as well as the legitimate interests of the data subject, which will at the very least include the right to seek the involvement of the data subject on the part of the controller, the right to express their own viewpoint and to challenge the decision.

Data protection in the case of job applications and the job application process

The controller gathers and processes personal data from applicants in order to handle the application process. Processing can occur electronically. This is the case in particular when an applicant submits their application documents to the controller via electronic means, for instance via e-mail or a web form on the website. Should the controller sign an employment contract with the applicant, the data submitted will be saved for the purposes of developing the occupational relationship, under consideration of legal regulations. If no employment contract is signed with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after the rejection decision has been conveyed, provided that no other legitimate reasons prevent the controller from deleting these.

In this context, other legitimate reasons could for example be the need for evidence in proceedings in accordance with the Allgemeine Gleichbehandlungsgesetz (AGG) [General Law on Equality of Treatment].

YouTube

Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for those processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract whose parties include the data subject, as is the case for example with processing operations necessary for the delivery of goods or the performance of another service or return service, the processing shall be based on Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR. The same applies to processing operations necessary to carry out precontractual measures, such as enquires about our products or services. If our company is under a legal obligation by which the processing of personal data is necessary, for example to fulfil tax obligations, this processing shall be based on Art. 6 (1) c) GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be required to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would for example be the case should a visitor to our company be injured and subsequently his name, age, health insurance details or other vital information need to be shared with a doctor, hospital or other third party. In this case, the processing would be based on Art. 6 (1) d) GDPR. Ultimately, the processing operations could be based on Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR. Processing operations not covered by any of the previously mentioned legal bases will rest on this legal basis, if the processing is necessary for the protection of a legitimate interest of our business or a third party, provided that this is not outweighed by the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject. We are permitted to perform such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. The legislator formed the view in this respect that a legitimate interest can be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

Duration for which the personal data will be saved

The storage period for personal data is based on the respective statutory retention period. When this deadline expires, the corresponding data will be routinely deleted provided it is no longer required to fulfil the contract or to initiate a contract.

Legal or contractual regulations for the provision of personal data; Necessity for the conclusion of the contract; Obligation of data subject to provide personal data; Possible consequences of non-provision

We hereby inform you that the provision of personal data is in part prescribed by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may arise from contractual regulations (e.g. details of the contracting party). It may, for example for the conclusion of a contract, be necessary for the data subject to provide us with personal data that we must subsequently process. The data subject is for example obliged to provide us with personal data, if our company concludes a contract with them. Non-provision of personal data could result in the contract with the data subject failing to be concluded. Before the data subject provides personal data, they must contact our data protection officer. Our data protection officer will explain to the data subject on an individual case basis whether the provision of personal data is legally or contractually prescribed or necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide personal data; and what the consequences of non-provision of personal data would be.

Existence of automated decision-making

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making.

Amendments to this data protection declaration

We reserve the right to amend or supplement this data protection declaration at any time in view of the continuously changing legal, technical and organisational requirements for the processing of personal data. This also applies to any translation errors and differences in national data protection requirements.
