Disclaimer

I. Content Liability

All details on our website are provided exclusively for general information purposes. They are intended to enable you to learn about Saaten-Union biotec GmbH and the services we offer and to contact us. We strive to continuously expand and update the information offered. While all our online contents were created with the greatest possible care and were checked before publication, errors cannot be entirely ruled out. For this reason, Saaten-Union biotec GmbH cannot provide a guarantee or warranty for the contents being entirely complete, accurate and up to date.

As a service provider, we are responsible for our own contents on these pages and for our other online contents pursuant to section 7 para. 1 TMG (German Telemedia Act). Pursuant to sections 9 to 10 TMG, we are under no obligation to monitor transmitted or stored third-party information (e.g. users’ postings) either or to search for indications of illegal activity. This does not affect the obligations to remove content or block the use of information pursuant to general legislation. However, liability in this respect can only apply from the point in time we gain knowledge of a concrete violation of law. If such violations of law come to our knowledge, we shall, of course, remove the relevant contents immediately.

We reserve the right to modify, add to or delete individual sections of our pages or the entire website or to discontinue publication temporarily or permanently. Users have no entitlement to expect the provision of specific contents on our website.

II. Liability for Links

Our website contains links to external third-party websites, which are outside our responsibility and the contents and design of which are outside our influence. For this reason, we cannot assume any guarantee for these third-party contents either. The same applies to the contents and design of external websites which contain links to our website.

Saaten-Union biotec GmbH is not responsible for the contents of any site reached through such a link. Responsibility for the contents of the linked sites lies exclusively with the respective site provider or operator. However, should we become aware of any violations of law on any external website, we shall remove the associated link immediately.

Privacy

We take the protection of our customers’ privacy very seriously.

With these comments on privacy, we would like to inform you about the ways we deal with personal data when people access our website and other online contents.

I. Use of Website and Online Contents

Access to our website and other online contents is free on principle and possible without users disclosing any personal data.Whenever you make personal data (such as your name, address or email address) available to us via our website, via email or via other communication, this always takes place on a voluntary basis. Participation in events, competitions, etc. always requires the provision of some personal details to enable us to contact you, if necessary. This will also entail continuous updating in your own interest in case there are any changes to the details (e.g. due to a move, a change in company name, etc.).

In these cases, you declare your consent to the collection, processing and utilisation of this data for the purpose obviously linked to your data input by virtue of submitting this data. These consents can be revoked at any time with future effect. This can be effected either in written form, posting the communication to SAATEN-UNION biotec GmbH at Hovedisser Str 92, 33818 Leopoldshöhe, or via an email to service~saaten-union-biotec.de.

We shall collect, process and utilise your personal data exclusively to the extent necessary to deal with your inquiry (e.g. request for information material, registration for an event), complying with the relevant provisions on privacy at all times.Processing and utilisation of all personal data are performed exclusively by authorised personnel. We shall keep your data confidential and we shall not sell or lease your data or make it otherwise available to any third parties on principle unless obligated to do so by law or by a court order. SAATEN-UNION biotec GmbH will not transmit your personal data to countries outside the European Union or the European Economic Area.As soon as the purpose for the collection and storage of your personal data is no longer applicable, we shall delete this data promptly, within 30 days at the latest, unless precluded from doing so for just cause due to the applicable legal provisions. In that case, the data will be blocked instead of being deleted.

II. Cookies

In order to enable users to browse speedily and thus facilitate use of our website, we use so-called session cookies on our pages; these are small text files which are stored on the user’s computer and which are automatically deleted (depending on your browser settings) when you exit our website and close the browser. You can, of course, disable cookies via your browser settings (e.g. “Block third-party cookies and site data”). Please note that this may result in some of the functions of our website no longer being available at all or only to a limited extent

III. Statistical Analysis

We can track information about the utilisation of our webpages and analyse it after anonymisation to enable us to improve our website and its functionalities. This does not involve any transmission or storage of data that would allow you to be identified as the user. All data collected in the process will be deleted automatically within 30 days. We use programs "Matomo" (former "Piwik”) and “etracker” for the purposes of statistical analysis, both of which are described below:

“Matomo”
This website uses the free web analysis tool “Matomo”, open-source software for the statistical analysis of visits, which enables us to analyse visitor behaviour and subsequently optimise our website accordingly. “Matomo” also uses cookies, i.e. small text files which are stored on your computer and which enable us to analyse your use of the website. For this purpose, the usage details generated by the cookies, including particularly the pages you access, the browser you use, your computer’s operating system, the referrer URL (previously accessed website) as well as an anonymised (shortened) part of your IP address, are transmitted to the server of our hosting service provider and stored for usage analysis purposes. During this process, your IP address will be anonymised promptly, i.e. after the processing and before storage, which means that you as the user remain anonymous to us. This prevents page impressions being correlated with identifiable individuals. In addition, the data about your use of our website created via the cookie is not transmitted to other servers or forwarded to any third parties.

You can also prevent the storage of cookies for this purpose by a respective setting in your browser; but be advised that in this case you may not be able to use the functions of our website to their full extent.

IV. Rights of Affected Parties

You have the right to receive information in written or electronic form about the personal data stored with respect to your person at any time upon request. You are further entitled to have any incorrect personal data corrected and to have your personal data blocked or deleted. Requests for information as well as requests for the correction, blocking or deletion of personal data must be sent to Saaten-Union Biotec GmbH either in writing to postal address or via email.
