We thank you for your interest in our company and the services we provide, and it is our wish that you should feel sure about the protection of your personal data whenever you visit our website. The protection of your personal data is a highly important issue for us, and for this reason it goes without saying that we comply with the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) and the other relevant data protection laws. We should like you to know what data we collect, when we collect them and what use we make of them. We have taken technical and organizational precautions to ensure that the data protection provisions are observed both by ourselves and by external service providers.
What anonymous data do we collect – and why?
On the following pages we will show what data we collect within the framework of this website and for what different purposes we use them:
When you visit our website, our web servers automatically store the data transmitted by your browser to enable you to visit these pages and inform yourself about our services and our company. The following data are stored:
- the name of your internet service provider,
- your IP address (anonymised),
- the website from which you are visiting us, together with the location, date and time of your visit,
- the contents which have been downloaded
- the amount of data transferred in each case,
- the page load speed
- your browser, the language and version of your browser software, together with your operating system and its interface.
Our system allows these technical data to be evaluated anonymously and solely for statistical purposes to enable us to optimize our website and provide a more attractive presentation. These anonymous data will be stored on secured systems separately from personal information and allow no conclusions to be drawn about any individual person.
On the following pages we will show you what data we collect within the scope of this website and the various purposes for which we use them.
Processing of data using cookies
Cookies are text files which are stored on your device for the purpose of following up your preferences and to enable us to tailor our content as closely as possible to your interests.
Our website uses Matomo, an open-source software for statistical evaluation of accesses by visitors. Matomo uses cookies which are stored on your computer and which enable an anonymised analysis of your use of the web presence. No conclusions can be drawn about any individual person since your IP address is anonymised immediately after processing and before storage. Further information about Matomo can be found at https://matomo.org/privacy-policy/.
The following other cookies are used on our RIFCON website: Borlabs Cookie, WPML, WPForms and Yoast SEO.
The information generated by the cookie about your use is stored only on the servers of RIFCON GmbH. The data collected in this way are used solely for purposes of the company’s own internal statistics and are erased once they have been evaluated.
We use transient cookies, which are automatically erased when you close your browser. These transient cookies include more especially session cookies. They store a so-called Session ID, which allows different requests from your browser to be assigned to the particular session, thus enabling your computer to be recognised when you return to the website. Session cookies are erased when you log out or close your browser.
To prevent cookies being stored, set your browser to refuse cookies. However, if cookies are not accepted by the browser, the number of functions available on the website may be limited.
These items of information are stored separately from any other data supplied to us. In particular, cookie data are not linked with any of your other data.
The legal basis for processing of the data are Article 6(1) lit. a and Article 6(1) lit. f of the EU GDPR.
