You also acknowledge that LiVET AG can change, add, remove or otherwise revise this data protection declaration at certain intervals at its own discretion and without prior notice. We recommend that you read the data protection declaration again at regular intervals. However, we will at all times treat your personal information in accordance with the version of the privacy policy that was in effect at the time this information was collected. We intend to post changes to our privacy policy on this page so that you are fully informed about the types of information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances it may be disclosed.

Personal data

The term “personal data” in the sense of this data protection declaration includes information by means of which you can be personally identified, including your name, your date of birth, your e-mail address, your postal address or telephone number. In principle, we will only use your personal data as described in this data protection declaration. Definitions of the terms used (e.g. “personal data” or “processing”) can also be found in Art. 4 GDPR.

More information about the use and processing of the collected data can be found in the section “Collection and processing of personal data” below.

Access data

The website operator or page provider collects data on access to the website on the basis of the legitimate interest (see Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. GDPR) and saves them as “Server log files” on the website server. The following data is logged in this way:

Visited website
Time at the time of access
Amount of data sent in bytes
Source/reference from which you came to the page
Browser used
Operating system used
IP address used

The server log files are stored for a maximum of 7 days and are then deleted. The data is stored for security reasons, e.g. in order to clarify cases of abuse. If data have to be kept for reasons of proof, they are excluded from deletion until the incident has been finally resolved.

Reach measurement & cookies

We may collect and process information about your visit to this website, such as the pages you visit, the website from which you came to our website and the search processes you perform. We use this information to improve the content of the website and to compile statistics for internal market analysis purposes on the individual use of the website. For this purpose, LiVET can install so-called cookies, which register your domain name, your Internet provider, your operating system and the date and time of your website visit. The use of cookies increases the user-friendliness and security of this website. A cookie is a small piece of information that is sent to your browser and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Cookies do not harm your computer. You can set your browser so that a message on the screen indicates the arrival of a cookie so that you can decide whether the cookie should be installed on the hard drive or not.

Collection and processing of personal data

The website operator collects, uses and passes your personal data only if this is permitted by law or if you consent to the data being collected. Personal data is all information that is used to identify you personally and which can be traced back to you – for example your name, your email address and telephone number.

You can also visit this website without providing any personal information. However, to improve our online offer, we save your access data on this website (without personal reference). These access data include e.g. the file you requested or the name of your Internet provider. By anonymizing the data, it is not possible to draw conclusions about you personally.

We process personal data such as first name, surname, company, IP address, email address, place of residence, zip code and content information from the contact form. We process this personal data only with the explicit permission of the users concerned and in compliance with the applicable data protection regulations. The processing of this data is based on our legitimate interest in fulfilling our contractually agreed services and in optimizing our online offer.

We collect and use your personal data, for example, to offer you products or services, to bill you for products and services you have ordered, to introduce you to products and services that we believe may be of interest to you or to others or to communicate with you for purposes that are evident from the circumstances or about which we will inform you when collecting the personal data.

Handling of comments and contributions

If you leave a post or comment on this website, your IP address will be saved. This is done on the basis of our legitimate interests within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. GDPR and serves the security of us as the website operator: If your comment violates applicable law, we can be prosecuted which is why we have an interest in the identity of the author of the comment or contribution.

Google Analytics

Due to our legitimate interests in optimizing and analyzing our online offer within the meaning of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR, this website uses the “Google Analytics” service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheater Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). The service (Google Analytics) uses “cookies” – text files that are stored on your device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Google LLC complies with European data protection law and is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement:

IP anonymization is used on this website. The IP address of users is shortened within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area and in the other contracting states of the agreement. Only in individual cases is the IP address initially transmitted in full to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. This shortening eliminates the personal reference to your IP address. The user’s IP address transmitted by the browser is not combined with other data stored by Google.

As part of the contract data agreement, which we, as the website operator, have concluded with Google Inc., Google Inc. uses the information collected to compile an evaluation of website usage and website activity and provides services related to internet usage.

The data collected by Google on our behalf are used to evaluate the use of our online offer by individual users, e.g. to create reports on the activity on the website in order to improve our online offer.

You have the option of preventing cookies from being stored on your device by making the appropriate settings in your browser. There is no guarantee that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies.

You can also use a browser plug-in to prevent the information collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to Google Inc. and used by Google Inc. The following link takes you to the corresponding plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de
