In case of questions on this privacy policy or on a processing of your personal data and in the event exercising your rights, or having any other complaints, please contact us under datenschutz@blueelephantenergy.com at any time.

 

In compliance with data protection regulations, we process your personal data only if you have given your consent or if it is permitted by law. This also applies to the processing of personal data for advertising and marketing purposes.
On this website, we can also collect information that does not allow us to draw any direct conclusions about you. In certain cases – especially in combination with other data – this information can nonetheless be considered "personal data" within the meaning of the GDPR.
In addition, on this website we may also collect such information that does not enable us to identify you, either directly or indirectly; this is e.g. aggregated information about all users of this website. We do not disclose your personal data to third parties, unless you have expressly consented or the disclosure is otherwise permitted by law. We do not use automated individual decisionmaking, including profiling (Art. 22 GDPR).

 

Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ("data subject"). A natural person is considered to be identifiable, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, number, location data or by specfic factors.
Every information that cannot be linked to your true identity is not considered personal information; this includes, for example, the number of users of our website or comparable aggregated information.

 

You are welcome to visit our website at any time, without needing to provide us with your personal data. When you have access to our website, we record temporary information about type and duration of the respective use as standard, such as
­- IP-address, connection data of the requesting computer
- the date and time of your visit
- duration of your visit
- the sites you visit on our website
- the identification data of the browser and operating system type
The purpose of the processing is to ensure troublefree operation of our website and to constantly improve our offerings. This processing does not allow us any conclusions about your person. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1) (f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in collecting and processing this technically necessary data in order to be able to present you this website and to ensure the stability and security of it.
This data will be deleted after the end of each session or used in anonymized form for statistics and will not be transferred to third parties.
Beyond this, personal data such as your name, your address, telephone number or e-mail address is not collected unless you deliberately provide these data to us in connection with a contact request (see below).

 

Cookies can be set on your end devices when you use our website. These are small files that enable us to store specific information about you as the user on your PC when you visit our website. Cookies help us to make our services as convenient and efficient as possible for you.
We only use technically required cookies. These include, in particular, so-called "session cookies", which are stored temporarily exclusively for the duration of your use of one of our websites and are technically necessary, in particular, for the smooth functioning of our own Kapatch-Key request when providing our services on our contact page. Our Kapatch-Key request serves to monitor and prevent interactions through automated access, for example through so-called bots (computer programs that perform tasks automatically and independently). With the help of our Kapatch-Key request, we check in particular whether data is entered for contact requests by a real person or by an automated program. For this purpose, a session cookie must be set which only contains your session ID. However, our Kapatch-Key request does not collect any personal data about you.
The legal basis for the use of these technically required cookies is Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in the use of technically necessary cookies to be able to present a userfriendly and efficient website.
The use of our services is also possible without cookies. You can deactivate the storage of cookies in your respective browser, restrict it to certain websites or configure your browser so that it notifies you as soon as a cookie is set. You can also delete cookies from the hard disk of your PC at any time. Please note, however, that in this case you must expect a restricted display of the page and limited user guidance.

We will store and process the data within the framework of legal regulations. In compliance with the provisions of data protection law, we will also delete your personal data stored without your request if their knowledge is no longer required to fulfil the purpose for which they were stored.
