Non-disclosure may result in the contract not being fulfilled by us or the requested service not being provided or the stated purpose not being achieved.

 

6 What is your data processed for?

 

a. enquiries

 

We process your data to answer your questions (Art. 6 Para. 1 b, f DSGVO). The communication of address and telecommunication data marked as mandatory is necessary in order to be able to process and answer your request. As a rule, we store the information from your enquiry for three months after answering the enquiry in the event of further enquiries. If this is a commercial or business letter, we store it for six years in accordance with the German Commercial Code (HGB) and the Fiscal Code (AO) (§ 257 Section 4 HGB, § 147 Section 3 AO, § 6 Section 1 c DSGVO).

 

b. Orders without and with online customer account

 

We process your personal data from your order initially for processing the order and for invoicing (Art.6 Para.1 b DSGVO).

 

Your data relevant for the order and the corresponding documents (e.g. commercial letters, invoices) are stored for six years (§ 257 Paragraph 4 HGB) or ten years (§ 147 Paragraph 3 AO) in accordance with the legal requirements after completion of the purchase.

 

You can also create an online customer account for your orders. We process your necessary registration data for setting up and using your online customer account and your orders (Art.6 Para.1 b DSGVO).

 

We store the registration data for your online customer account until you cancel your account, as long as there are no legal storage obligations, e.g. due to your orders.

We process your personal data from your offer to sell coins (address data, telecommunication data, purchase data, financial data, see above 4.) for processing the purchase and payment (Art.6 Abs.1 b DSGVO).

 

Your data relevant for the purchase and the associated documents (e.g. commercial letters, invoices) are stored for six years or ten years in accordance with the statutory requirements after completion of the purchase (see b above).

 

d. credit assessment

 

If we make advance payments, e.g. in the case of a purchase on account, we may obtain credit information from infoscore Consumer Data GmbH, Rheinstraße 99, 76532 Baden-Baden (Art.6 Para.1 f DSGVO) to safeguard our legitimate interests. To this end, we provide this credit agency with the personal data required for a credit assessment and use the information received on the statistical probability of non-payment for a balanced decision on the establishment, implementation or termination of the contractual relationship.

 

Information on data protection at infoscore Consumer Data GmbH can be found at https://finance.arvato.com/icdinfoblatt.

 

The creditworthiness data may contain probability values (score values), which are calculated on the basis of scientifically recognised mathematical-statistical methods and in the calculation of which address data, among other things, are included. Your concerns worthy of protection are taken into account in accordance with the statutory provisions (Art.6 Para.1 f DSGVO, § 31 Para. 1 and 2 BDSG).

 

Personal data concerning due, unpaid and undisputed or judicially determined claims will be sent to the credit agencies at the earliest four weeks after receipt of the first of a total of two written reminders, which will also make this data available to other companies for credit assessment if there is a justified interest (Art.6 Para.1 f DSGVO, § 31 Para. 2 No. 4 BDSG).

 

Within our group of companies (we, Richard Borek GmbH und Co. KG und Archiv Verlag GmbH, all Theodor-Heuss-Straße 7, 38090 Braunschweig), we submit a status report if we assume on the basis of defined criteria that a customer cannot fulfil future contracts (Art.6 Para.1 f DSGVO).

We process your details in evaluations and comments, which you can also provide under a pseudonym, for the publication of your contributions (Art.6 Para.1 f DSGVO).

In the event of unlawful comments or evaluations, we reserve the right to store the data for a longer period in accordance with the statutory provisions (Art.6 Para.1 f DSGVO).

 

f. Public relations

 

email marketing

 

If you have provided us with your e-mail address when placing your order, we will also inform you as a customer by e-mail about offers that are similar to those you have purchased. You can object to this at any time at basic rates (§ 7 Paragraph 3 UWG (Law against unfair competition).

 

Otherwise, we will send you offers, information, customer surveys and competitions on coin collection by e-mail with your revocable consent, e.g. in the form of our newsletter (§ 7 Paragraph 2 No. 3 UWG, Art. 6 Paragraph 1 a DSGVO).

 

We process your obligatory data when you give your consent for documentation purposes and to be able to address you personally.

Extensive target group analyses to optimise our advertising are regularly pseudonymised on the basis of a customer number.

Your IP address is also recorded and stored for documentation purposes (Art.7 Para.1, Art.6 Para.1 c DSGVO).

 

To obtain your consent for telephone advertising, we also record your IP address online and store it for documentation purposes (Art.7 para.1, Art.6 para.1 c DSGVO).

If the application process ends without employment, your data is regularly stored for another six months for documentation purposes and then deleted. The documents sent to us will be returned or destroyed.

7. Right of objection and revocation at any time

 

You have the right to object to the processing of your data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation, provided the legal requirements are met (Art. 21 Para. 1 DSGVO).

 

If you object to the processing of your data for advertising purposes or would like to revoke a given consent (Art. 21 para. 2 DSGVO), a short message to our data protection officer by e-mail to datenschutz@mdm.de or by post to MDM Münzhandelsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG German Mint, Data Protection Department, Theodor-Heuss-Straße 7, 38097 Braunschweig, Germany. Your data will then no longer be processed for the purposes of advertising covered by the advertising objection or revocation of consent.

 

This does not affect the legality of the processing until the objection or revocation.

 

After your objection to the processing of your personal data for advertising purposes or the revocation of your consent, we are obliged under data protection law in accordance with Art. 21 para. 3 DSGVO to include the data required for this (name, address, e-mail address) in our internal advertising blacklist and to store (block) it permanently – only for this purpose – and to use it for comparison with our future advertising files (Art. 6 para. 1 c, f DSGVO). In this way, the observance of your advertising objection or the revocation of your consent can be permanently ensured.

 

8. What are cookies and what are they used for?

 

a. Cookies

 

“Cookies” are small files that are transferred to the hard disk of your computer via your web browser or other programs. These are stored locally on the hard disk of your computer and kept ready for later retrieval.

 

If you click on or remove the consent banner on our initial website, you agree to the use of cookies as described there (Art. 6 para. 1 a DSGVO).

 

b. Use of cookies

 

We use cookies, to enable and ensure the necessary technical functions (Art.6 Abs.1 b, f DSGVO) to make our website user-friendly and optimally adapted to your needs, so you do not have to re-enter your personal data.

 

to evaluate the visits to our website itself or by our contractors pseudonymously (web tracking) and to be able to show you interesting offers on our website as well as on websites in connected advertising networks (retargeting) (Art. 6 Para. 1 a DSGVO) and

 

to consider the rejection of cookies and/or the revocation of your consent to the use of cookies (“Do not track or retarget” cookies).

 

Session cookies are only used for the respective session. This allows you as a user to enjoy the convenient cross-page shopping cart display, for example, in which you can see how many items are currently in your shopping cart and how high your current shopping value is. These cookies are deleted after the end of the session, i.e. after leaving our website or by closing the browser window.

 

Other cookies remain on your terminal for a longer period of time and enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit (persistent cookies).

 

c. Deletion of cookies / revocation of your consent

 

If you wish to revoke your consent and switch off pseudonymised web tracking and retargeting, please click here on “Do not track or retarget”. This stores a cookie on your end device that stops both the pseudonymous collection of data on our website and the transmission of the pseudonymous cookie ID to our advertising networks for retargeting.

 

Please note that when all cookies are deleted, the “Do not track or retarget” cookies will also be deleted to comply with the revocation.

 

You can set your web browser to notify you when cookies are set or to reject all or at least certain cookies (e.g. only third-party cookies) in order to prohibit web tracking and retargeting. If you deactivate cookies using your browser, however, various functions on our website will no longer be usable for you.

 

The following links provide information on this option for the most frequently used browsers:

9. Web Tracking

 

a. Google Analytics

 

If you click on or remove the consent banner on our entry website, this website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc, USA (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies which are stored on your computer and which enable an analysis of your use of the website (Art. 6 Par. 1 a DSGVO). The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

 

However, by activating IP anonymisation on our website, Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other countries party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

 

Google has submitted to the EU Privacy Shield (certificate available at: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI). Following a decision by the EU Commission, the EU Privacy Shield can be used as a basis for adequate data protection in order to transfer personal data from the EU to US companies that have certified themselves in accordance with the Privacy Shield.

 

On our behalf, Google will use this information to anonymously evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with other services relating to website and Internet use.

 

You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your shortened IP address) and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

 

b. Econda

 

If you click on or off the consent banner on our entry website, econda GmbH, Eisenlohrstrasse 43, 76135 Karlsruhe (www.econda.de) creates pseudonymised user profiles of visitors to our website (Art. 6 para. 1 a DSGVO) for the demand-oriented design and optimisation of this website on our behalf using cookies. The cookies used by econda are not used to identify natural persons, but rather to count the users of our website and to assign various attributes to their pseudonym, such as the marketing channel through which a visit is made or the products last viewed. For this purpose, cookies may be used that enable the recognition of an Internet browser.

 

The pseudonymised user profiles are not combined with data on the bearer of the pseudonym. In particular, IP addresses are “masked” immediately after receipt by making the last two octets unrecognisable, making it no longer possible to assign user profiles to IP addresses.

 

Visitors to this website can also object to this pseudonymised use of data at any time.

 

10. Retargeting

 

In order to be able to show you advertisements that match your interests when you visit our website and other websites, we work together with advertising networks during retargeting. When you click on or off the consent banner on our entry website, these collect pseudonymised information about your usage behaviour on our and other websites with the help of cookies (Art. 6 Para. 1 a DSGVO). This data can be used to optimize the advertising display for you and to align it to your predicted interests.

 

You may revoke your consent at any time as described in Section 8c.

 

11. Payment by credit card

 

We offer you the possibility of payment by credit card (VISA, MasterCard). Please enter your credit card details when placing your order. For this we cooperate with the PCI-certified payment service provider SIX Payment Services (Germany) GmbH. Your data will be recorded there and stored for the payment process. We, the MDM Münzhandelsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG Deutsche Münze, do not store your credit card data. Access to SIX Payment Services GmbH is subject to the provisions of the Company.

 

12. Logging

Message as to whether the retrieval was successful,

 

The access method/function required by the requesting mobile device,

 

a description of the type of web browser used,

 

Referrer (website from which you accessed our website)

 

IP address.

 

The temporary storage of this so-called server log data is necessary to provide the service for technical reasons, for billing purposes with service providers and thereafter to ensure system security. The data required for billing purposes will be stored…. The data will be made anonymous at the latest after…… by shortening the IP address. Further evaluation of this data is carried out anonymously for statistical purposes.

 

13. How can you exercise your privacy rights?

 

If you have any questions about the processing of your personal data by us, we will of course be happy to provide you with information about the data concerning you.
