1. Description and scope of data processing
1.1 Visiting the website, creating log files and other electronic offers
Each time the Gübelin website is visited, the web server automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the computer from which the call originates. In particular, the following data is collected, in each case technically anonymised:
- information about the browser type and the version used
- the user's operating system
- the user's Internet service provider
- the IP address of the user
- date and time of access
- the referrer URL (websites from which the user's system accessed our website)
- websites that are accessed by the user's system via our website
- the file request of the client (file name and URL).
This data is stored in the log files of our system (or with third parties) together with other data and is collected solely for the purpose of statistical evaluation. This data is not stored together with the user’s other personal data.
When you use other electronic offerings, such as our Wi-Fi network, we collect certain technical data. Technical data also includes the logs in which we record the use of our systems (log data). In some cases, we may also assign a unique identification number to your terminal device (tablet, PC, smart-phone, etc.) (an ID). We use this data to ensure a smooth connection, the comfortable use of the Gübelin website and other electronic offers, the evaluation of system security and stability and for other administrative purposes. This data generally does not allow us to draw any conclusions about your identity. In the context of user accounts or registrations, however, they can be linked with other data categories - and thus possibly with your person.
1.2 Newsletter/Marketing
On our website you have the option of subscribing to a newsletter of the Gübelin Group, which informs you about new products, services, promotions, the magazine, about the Gübelin Group, events, contests, events and the like. When you subscribe to the newsletter, the personal data you enter in the input mask is transmitted to us and stored. Some information is also sent by companies of the Gübelin Group. By subscribing to the newsletter, you agree that we may process your data, that we may transmit your data to the other group companies or (foreign-based) third parties (including the USA, e.g. Mailchimp for newsletter dispatch), that we may track your click and opening behaviour, that we may store your data and information about your use of our services as well as any information provided by you (e.g. product preferences and interests)or information about you received from third party sources or already stored by us in a user profile and evaluate it individually in order to address you with tailored and relevant advertising, and that we may contact you directly in individual cases. If required by law, we will first obtain your consent, unless we have received your contact details as part of our services and you have not expressly declined to receive such marketing measures. You also confirm that you have read and understood our privacy policy. If you no longer wish to receive such mailings from us, you can unsubscribe at any time using the contact details provided. You can also cancel your subscription to a newsletter for the future at any time; there is also a cancellation link at the end of every email.
Insofar as we refer to third party websites for product information etc. and you visit these websites, the corresponding data protection declaration of the respective website operator applies. Gübelin has no influence on this.
1.3 Registration
On our website we offer users the opportunity to register by providing personal data (customer account). The data that you enter in an input mask is transmitted to us and stored. By registering a customer account, you agree that we may process your data. You also confirm that you have read and understood this data protection declaration.
If you decide to receive news / print media when or after opening a customer account (this is done by explicitly ticking the applicable box), you also agree to us using your personal data for marketing purposes such as the delivery of our newsletter and/or the dispatch of catalogues/magazines.
1.4 Contact form, reservation function and e-mail contacting
Our website contains a contact form that can be used to contact us and our experts electronically. This enables us to contact you and deal with your enquiry. If you use this option, the data you enter in the input mask will be transmitted to us unencrypted and stored. By sending the contact form, you agree that we may process your data. You also confirm that you have read and understood this data protection declaration. Depending on the type of enquiry, responses will be answered by other companies of the Gübelin Group.
Alternatively, it is possible to contact us via the e-mail address provided or by using the "reservation function" service. In this case, the personal data transmitted by you with the e-mail or the personal data according to the input mask will be stored. The e-mail and other digital communication traffic is not encrypted. The risk remains with you.
In this context, the data will not be passed on to third parties. The data is used exclusively for processing the conversation or for on-site consultation.
1.5 Applications
Our vacancies are published on our website and/or external portals. Our job advertisements, your online application and your initial application are made via the "Haufe Talent Management Tool" belonging to our software partner Haufe-umantis AG. The application process is subject to the separate data protection declaration stored there.
1.6 Chat
A chat function is available on our website. You can use it to contact us and send us documents. The data received in this way is stored and processed by us. The communication is not encrypted.
1.7 In the context of business relationships
We process your data that we receive in the course of our business relationship with our customers, other business partners and other persons involved. This includes, in particular, contact data such as title, first name, surname, gender, date of birth, address, e-mail address, telephone number and other contact data as well as communication data such as exchanged communication content from e-mails, other written correspondence, telephone conversations, video conferences, etc. and information about the type, time and place of the communication.
To the extent permitted, we also obtain data from publicly accessible sources (e.g. commercial registers, media, Internet, social media, etc.). In addition to data that you give us directly, it is data that we receive about you from third parties (authorities, credit information, banks, other third parties), in particular information from public registers, in connection with official and legal proceedings, in connection with your professional functions and activities, information about you in correspondence and meetings with third parties, information we receive from people from your surroundings (e.g. family, friends, acquaintances, consultants, legal representatives, employers). We may also collect information about you from your family, friends, acquaintances, advisers, legal representatives, employers) to enable us to enter into or perform contracts with or involving you (e.g. references, powers of attorney), your address and, where applicable, interests and other socio-demographic data (for marketing purposes).
1.8 Additional purposes
Processing to protect other legitimate interests is one of the other purposes. These cannot be named explicitly. They depend on the individual case.
