Privacy Policy

We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our company. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of Intellysell. The use of the Internet pages of Intellysell is possible without any indication of personal data; however, if a data subject wants to use special enterprise services via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to Intellysell. By means of this data protection declaration, our enterprise would like to inform the general public of the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed, by means of this data protection declaration, of the rights to which they are entitled.

As the controller, Intellysell has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions may in principle have security gaps, so absolute protection may not be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transfer personal data to us via alternative means, e.g., by telephone.

1. Definitions

The data protection declaration of Intellysell is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration should be legible and understandable for the general public, as well as our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to first explain the terminology used.

In this data protection declaration, we use, inter alia, the following terms:

a) Personal Data

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ("data subject"). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.

b) Data Subject

Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person, whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.

c) Processing

Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction.

d) Restriction of Processing

Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.

e) Profiling

Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning that natural person's performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location, or movements.

f) Pseudonymization

Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

g) Controller or Controller Responsible for the Processing

Controller or controller responsible for the processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.

h) Processor

Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

i) Recipient

Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients.

j) Third Party

Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or body other than the data subject, controller, processor, and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data.

k) Consent

Consent of the data subject is any freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of the data subject's wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

2. Name and Address of the Controller

Controller for the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), other data protection laws applicable in Member states of the European Union, and other provisions related to data protection is:

Intellysell

Hanauer Str. 26c

63526 Erlensee

Germany

Website: www.intellysell.com

3. Cookies

The Internet pages of Intellysell use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser.

Many Internet sites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a character string through which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited Internet sites and servers to differentiate the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified using the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, Intellysell can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognize our website users. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website. For example, the website user that uses cookies does not have to enter access data each time the website is accessed, as this is taken over by the website, and the cookie is thus stored on the user's computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online shop. The online store remembers the articles that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.

The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used, and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all popular Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be entirely usable.

4. Collection of General Data and Information

The website of Intellysell collects a series of general data and information with each visit to the website by an affected person or an automated system. This general data and information are stored in the server’s log files. The data and information collected may include (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Internet Protocol (IP) address, (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) other similar data and information used to protect against threats in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using this general data and information, Intellysell does not draw any conclusions about the affected person. Instead, this information is needed to (1) correctly deliver the content of our website, (2) optimize the content of our website and its advertisements, (3) ensure the permanent functionality of our information technology systems and website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyberattack. Therefore, Intellysell statistically evaluates this anonymous data and information with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data in the server log files is stored separately from all personal data provided by an affected person.

5. Contact Options via the Website

The website of Intellysell contains information required by legal regulations that enables quick electronic contact with our company and direct communication with us, which also includes a general address for so-called electronic mail (email address). If an affected person contacts the controller via email or through a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the affected person is automatically stored. Such personal data voluntarily transmitted by an affected person to the controller is stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the affected person. This personal data is not passed on to third parties.

6. Routine Deletion and Blocking of Personal Data

The controller processes and stores personal data of the affected person only for the period necessary to achieve the storage purpose or as provided by European directives and regulations or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.

If the storage purpose ceases to apply, or if a storage period prescribed by European directives and regulations or another competent legislator expires, the personal data is routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions.

7. Rights of the Affected Person

a) Right to Confirmation

Every affected person has the right, granted by the European directives and regulations, to obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning them is being processed. If an affected person wishes to make use of this right of confirmation, they can contact any employee of the controller at any time.

b) Right to Information

Every affected person has the right, granted by the European directives and regulations, to obtain free information about the personal data stored about them and a copy of this information from the controller at any time. Furthermore, the European directives and regulations grant the affected person access to the following information:

  • The purposes of the processing
  • The categories of personal data processed
  • The recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data has been or will be disclosed, particularly recipients in third countries or international organizations
  • If possible, the planned duration for which the personal data will be stored, or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining this duration
  • The existence of a right to rectification or deletion of the personal data concerning them or to restriction of processing by the controller or the right to object to such processing
  • The existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
  • If the personal data is not collected from the affected person: All available information about the origin of the data
  • The existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, in accordance with Article 22(1) and (4) GDPR, and — at least in these cases — meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and intended effects of such processing for the affected person

Furthermore, the affected person has the right to know whether personal data has been transferred to a third country or to an international organization. If this is the case, the affected person also has the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer.

If an affected person wishes to make use of this right to information, they can contact any employee of the controller at any time.

c) Right to Rectification

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European directives and regulations, to demand the immediate rectification of incorrect personal data concerning them. Furthermore, the affected person has the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, including by means of a supplementary statement, taking into account the purposes of the processing.

If an affected person wishes to exercise this right to rectification, they can contact any employee of the controller at any time.

d) Right to Deletion (Right to Be Forgotten)

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European directives and regulations, to demand from the controller the immediate deletion of personal data concerning them, provided one of the following reasons applies and the processing is not necessary:

  • The personal data was collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which it is no longer necessary.
  • The affected person withdraws the consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
  • The affected person objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the affected person objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR.
  • The personal data has been unlawfully processed.
  • The deletion of personal data is required to fulfill a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the member states to which the controller is subject.
  • The personal data was collected in relation to offered information society services pursuant to Article 8(1) GDPR.

If one of the above reasons applies and an affected person wishes to request the deletion of personal data stored by Intellysell, they can contact any employee of the controller at any time. The employee of Intellysell will ensure that the deletion request is fulfilled immediately.

If the personal data has been made public by Intellysell and our company, as the controller, is obliged to delete the personal data pursuant to Article 17(1) GDPR, Intellysell, taking into account the available technology and implementation costs, will take appropriate measures, including technical measures, to inform other controllers processing the published personal data that the affected person has requested the deletion of all links to this personal data or copies or replications of this personal data, unless processing is required. The employee of Intellysell will arrange the necessary measures in individual cases.

e) Right to Restriction of Processing

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European directives and regulations, to demand the restriction of processing from the controller if one of the following conditions applies:

  • The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the affected person, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
  • The processing is unlawful, the affected person opposes the deletion of the personal data, and instead requests the restriction of its use.
  • The controller no longer needs the personal data for processing purposes, but the affected person requires it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
  • The affected person has objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, pending the verification of whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the affected person.

If one of the above conditions is met and an affected person wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by Intellysell, they can contact any employee of the controller at any time. The employee of Intellysell will arrange the restriction of processing.

f) Right to Data Portability

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European directives and regulations, to receive the personal data concerning them, which they have provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. They also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data was provided, provided that the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Furthermore, in exercising their right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) GDPR, the affected person has the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and provided that this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

To assert the right to data portability, the affected person can contact any employee of Intellysell at any time.

g) Right to Object

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European directives and regulations, to object at any time, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them, which is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

Intellysell will no longer process the personal data in the event of an objection unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the affected person, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

If Intellysell processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the affected person has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for such marketing. This also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If the affected person objects to Intellysell's processing for direct marketing purposes, Intellysell will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.

In addition, the affected person has the right, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to object to the processing of personal data concerning them for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.

To exercise the right to object, the affected person may directly contact any employee of Intellysell. Furthermore, the affected person is free to exercise their right to object in connection with the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

h) Automated Individual Decision-Making, Including Profiling

(Description continues as per the original policy.)

i) Right to Withdraw Consent Under Data Protection Law

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European directives and regulations, to withdraw consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

If an affected person wishes to exercise their right to withdraw consent, they can contact any employee of Intellysell at any time.

8. Data Protection for Applications and During the Application Process

The controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of managing the application process. Processing may also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant submits corresponding application documents electronically, such as by email or via a web form on the website, to the controller. If the controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with legal requirements. If the controller does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after the notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller oppose the deletion. Other legitimate interests in this sense may include, for example, a duty to provide evidence in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

9. Data Protection Provisions for the Use of Google AdSense

The controller has integrated Google AdSense on this website. Google AdSense is an online service that enables the placement of advertising on third-party websites. Google AdSense is based on an algorithm that selects the ads displayed on third-party websites according to the content of the respective third-party website. Google AdSense allows interest-based targeting of the Internet user, which is implemented using individual user profiles.

The operator of the Google AdSense component is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

The purpose of the Google AdSense component is to integrate advertisements on our website. Google AdSense places a cookie on the information technology system of the affected person. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Alphabet Inc. is enabled to analyze the use of our website. By accessing one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Google AdSense component is integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the affected person is automatically triggered by the respective Google AdSense component to transmit data for the purpose of online advertising and commission accounting to Alphabet Inc. As part of this technical procedure, Alphabet Inc. obtains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the affected person, which Alphabet Inc. uses, among other things, to understand the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently enable commission settlements.

The affected person can prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as already described above, at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Alphabet Inc. from placing a cookie on the information technology system of the affected person. Furthermore, a cookie already set by Alphabet Inc. can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.

Google AdSense also uses so-called web beacons. A web beacon is a small graphic embedded in websites to enable log file recording and log file analysis, which allows a statistical evaluation to be performed. Through the embedded web beacon, Alphabet Inc. can detect whether and when a website was opened by an affected person and which links were clicked on by the affected person. Web beacons are used, among other things, to evaluate the visitor flow of a website.

Through Google AdSense, personal data and information—including the IP address and necessary data for the collection and billing of the displayed advertisements—may be transmitted to Alphabet Inc. in the United States of America. This personal data is stored and processed in the United States of America. Alphabet Inc. may disclose this personal data collected through the technical procedure to third parties.

Google AdSense is further explained under the following link: https://www.google.com/intl/en/adsense/start/.

10. Data Protection Provisions for the Use of Google Analytics (with Anonymization Function)

The controller has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymization function) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics involves the collection, gathering, and analysis of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analytics service collects, among other things, data about the website from which an affected person came (the referrer), which subpages were visited, or how often and for what duration a subpage was viewed. Web analytics is primarily used to optimize a website and to conduct a cost-benefit analysis of Internet advertising.

The operator of the Google Analytics component is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

The controller uses the "_gat._anonymizeIp" add-on for web analytics via Google Analytics. By means of this add-on, the IP address of the affected person’s Internet connection is truncated and anonymized by Google if access to our website is from a member state of the European Union or from another contracting state to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is the analysis of visitor flows to our website. Google uses the data and information collected to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us that show the activities on our website, and to provide other services related to the use of our website.

Google Analytics places a cookie on the information technology system of the affected person. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. By accessing one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the affected person is automatically triggered by the respective Google Analytics component to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical procedure, Google gains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the affected person, which Google uses, among other things, to trace the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently enable commission settlements.

(Further technical details and opt-out procedures follow as per the original text.)

11. Data Protection Provisions for the Use of Instagram

The controller has integrated components of the Instagram service on this website. Instagram is a service that qualifies as an audiovisual platform and allows users to share photos and videos as well as disseminate such data on other social networks.

The operator of Instagram services is Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

Each time one of the individual pages of this website, operated by the controller and incorporating an Instagram component (Instagram button), is accessed, the Internet browser on the affected person’s information technology system is automatically prompted by the respective Instagram component to download a representation of the corresponding component from Instagram. As part of this technical procedure, Instagram is informed of which specific subpage of our website was visited by the affected person.

12. Legal Basis for Processing

Article 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations where we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service, the processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for instance, in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation by which the processing of personal data is required, such as for fulfilling tax obligations, the processing is based on Article 6(1)(c) GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and their name, age, health insurance data, or other vital information would need to be passed on to a doctor, hospital, or other third parties. In this case, the processing would be based on Article 6(1)(d) GDPR. Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal grounds if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. A legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a client of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

13. Legitimate Interests in Processing Pursued by the Controller or a Third Party

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favor of the well-being of all our employees and shareholders.

14. Duration for Which Personal Data Will Be Stored

The criterion used to determine the storage period of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After the expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, provided it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

15. Legal or Contractual Requirements for the Provision of Personal Data; Necessity for the Conclusion of a Contract; Obligation of the Data Subject to Provide Personal Data; Possible Consequences of Failure to Provide Such Data

We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g., tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g., information about the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with them. The non-provision of personal data would result in the contract with the data subject not being able to be concluded. Before personal data is provided by the data subject, the data subject must contact any employee. The employee clarifies to the data subject whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data, and the consequences of non-provision of the personal data.

16. Existence of Automated Decision-Making

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.

17. Use of the Consent Tool "Real Cookie Banner"

To manage the use of cookies and similar technologies (tracking pixels, web beacons, etc.) and to obtain related consents, we use the consent tool "Real Cookie Banner." Details about how "Real Cookie Banner" operates can be found at https://devowl.io/de/rcb/datenverarbeitung/. The legal basis for the processing of personal data in this context is Article 6(1)(c) GDPR and Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in managing the use of cookies and similar technologies and the corresponding consents. The provision of personal data is neither contractually required nor necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are not obligated to provide personal data. If you do not provide the personal data, we cannot manage your consents.
