The legal basis for processing the data in question is the safeguarding of vital interests pursuant to Art. 6 lit. f GDPR and processing for the performance of precontractual measures pursuant to Art. 6 lit. b GDPR if you request these.
• The vital interests mentioned pursuant to Art. 6 lit. f GDPR are that technically third parties must be brought into communications by website (Internet server providers), by telephone (namely the telephone company), by e-mail (the Internet server providers on the communication channel and the providers of the e-mailboxes), and by letter mail (the postal company). The contents cannot be shown in your Internet browser without the involvement of third parties. The involvement of third parties is restricted to the parties directly involved in the communication process.
• Benzing erases the data in question immediately after conclusion of the contract with you. If you cancel beforehand, the data in question will be erased immediately provided there is no other legal basis for processing.
• There is a right to notification and to rectification or erasure or restriction.
• There is a right of complaint to the supervisory authority.
• The provision of personal data by you is prescribed neither by law nor contractually and is not required to conclude a contract. You are not obligated to provide the data. Possible consequences of your not providing the data are that you cannot open the Benzing website completely or in part and cannot see the contents accordingly.
• There is no automated decision-making and no profiling. The use of Google Analytics, on the basis of which however no decisions with legal effect in respect of yourself are made, is explained in the following.

The cookie provides us with information on which web pages of our homepage are visited in what order and how long is spent on the respective pages.

We only know your IP address – technically necessary on the Internet – about you. We do not have any direct possibility of assigning the IP address to your person.

Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, or text files, that are stored on your computer and facilitate an analysis of your use of the website. The information regarding your use of our website generated by the cookie is generally transferred and stored on a server in the USA by Google. ZIP address anonymisation has been activated on our website so that your IP address will be shortened beforehand within member states of the European Union or in other countries which are parties to the European Economic Area agreement. Only under exceptional circumstances will the complete IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google will use this information on our behalf to analyse your use of the website in order to compile reports on website activity and provide further services associated with use of the website and the Internet for us. The IP address transferred via your browser by Google Analytics will not be associated with any other data held by Google.
