Privacy Policy
We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our enterprise. Data
protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of the Mills &
more GmbH. The use of the Internet pages of the Mills & more GmbH 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 the Mills & more
GmbH. 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, the Mills & more GmbH 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 the Mills & more GmbH 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, organisation, 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 analyse or predict aspects
concerning that natural person's performance at work, economic situation,
health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or
movements.
f) Pseudonymisation Pseudonymisation 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 organisational
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; the processing of those data by those
public authorities shall be in compliance with the applicable data protection
rules according to the purposes of the processing.
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 authorised
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

3. Cookies
The Internet pages of the Mills & more GmbH 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 dats 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, the Mills & more GmbH can provide the users of this website with
more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie
setting. By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be
optimized with the user in mind. 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. The website user that uses cookies,
e.g. does not have to enter access data each time the website is accessed,
because 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 the Mills & more GmbH collects a series of general data and
information when a data subject or automated system calls up the website. This
general data and information are stored in the server log files. Collected may
be (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, (5) the date and time of
access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7)
the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) any other similar
data and information that may be used in the event of attacks on our information
technology systems. When using these general data and information, the Mills &
more GmbH does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this
information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2)
optimize the content of our website as well as its advertisement, (3) ensure the
long-term viability of our information technology systems and website
technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information
necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack. Therefore, the
Mills & more GmbH analyzes anonymously collected data and information
statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security
of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal
data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored
separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.
5. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data
The data controller shall process and store the personal data of the data
subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as
far as this is granted by the European legislator or other legislators in laws
or regulations to which the controller is subject to. If the storage purpose is
not applicable, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or
another competent legislator expires, the personal data are routinely blocked or
erased in accordance with legal requirements.
6. Rights of the data subject
a) Right of confirmation Each data subject shall have the right granted by the
European legislator to obtain from the controller the confirmation as to whether
or not personal data concerning him or her are being processed. If a data
subject wishes to avail himself of this right of confirmation, he or she may, at
any time, contact any employee of the controller.
b) Right of access Each data subject shall have the right granted by the
European legislator to obtain from the controller free information about his or
her personal data stored at any time and a copy of this information.
Furthermore, the European directives and regulations grant the data subject
access to the following information: the purposes of the processing; the
categories of personal data concerned; the recipients or categories of
recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, in
particular recipients in third countries or international organisations; where
possible, the envisaged period for which the personal data will be stored, or,
if not possible, the criteria used to determine that period; the existence of
the right to request from the controller rectification or erasure of personal
data, or restriction of processing of personal data concerning the data subject,
or to object to such processing; the existence of the right to lodge a complaint
with a supervisory authority; where the personal data are not collected from the
data subject, any available information as to their source; the existence of
automated decision-making, including profiling, referred to in Article 22(1) and
(4) of the GDPR and, at least in those cases, meaningful information about the
logic involved, as well as the significance and envisaged consequences of such
processing for the data subject. Furthermore, the data subject shall have a
right to obtain information as to whether personal data are transferred to a
third country or to an international organisation. Where this is the case, the
data subject shall have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards
relating to the transfer. If a data subject wishes to avail himself of this
right of access, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the
controller.
c) Right to rectification Each data subject shall have the right granted by the
European legislator to obtain from the controller without undue delay the
rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him or her. Taking into
account the purposes of the processing, the data subject shall have the right to
have incomplete personal data completed, including by means of providing a
supplementary statement. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to
rectification, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the
controller.
d) Right to erasure (Right to be forgotten) Each data subject shall have the
right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller the
erasure of personal data concerning him or her without undue delay, and the
controller shall have the obligation to erase personal data without undue delay
where one of the following grounds applies, as long as the processing is not
necessary: The personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes
for which they were collected or otherwise processed. The data subject withdraws
consent to which the processing is based according to point (a) of Article 6(1)
of the GDPR, or point (a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR, and where there is no
other legal ground for the processing. The data subject objects to the
processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR and there are no overriding
legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the
processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the GDPR. The personal data have been
unlawfully processed. The personal data must be erased for compliance with a
legal obligation in Union or Member State law to which the controller is
subject. The personal data have been collected in relation to the offer of
information society services referred to in Article 8(1) of the GDPR. If one of
the aforementioned reasons applies, and a data subject wishes to request the
erasure of personal data stored by the Mills & more GmbH, he or she may, at any
time, contact any employee of the controller. An employee of Mills & more GmbH
shall promptly ensure that the erasure request is complied with immediately.
Where the controller has made personal data public and is obliged pursuant to
Article 17(1) to erase the personal data, the controller, taking account of
available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable
steps, including technical measures, to inform other controllers processing the
personal data that the data subject has requested erasure by such controllers of
any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data, as far as
processing is not required. An employees of the Mills & more GmbH will arrange
the necessary measures in individual cases.
e) Right of restriction of processing Each data subject shall have the right
granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller restriction of
processing where one of the following applies: The accuracy of the personal data
is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify
the accuracy of the personal data. The processing is unlawful and the data
subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests instead the
restriction of their use instead. The controller no longer needs the personal
data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by the data
subject for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. The data
subject has objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR pending
the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those
of the data subject. If one of the aforementioned conditions is met, and a data
subject wishes to request the restriction of the processing of personal data
stored by the Mills & more GmbH, he or she may at any time contact any employee
of the controller. The employee of the Mills & more GmbH will arrange the
restriction of the processing.
f) Right to data portability Each data subject shall have the right granted by
the European legislator, to receive the personal data concerning him or her,
which was provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and
machine-readable format. He or she shall have the right to transmit those data
to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the
personal data have been provided, as long as the processing is based on consent
pursuant to point (a) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR or point (a) of Article 9(2)
of the GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to point (b) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR,
and the processing is carried out by automated means, as long as the processing
is not 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 his or her right to data portability pursuant to
Article 20(1) of the GDPR, the data subject shall have the right to have
personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where
technically feasible and when doing so does not adversely affect the rights and
freedoms of others. In order to assert the right to data portability, the data
subject may at any time contact any employee of the Mills & more GmbH.
g) Right to object Each data subject shall have the right granted by the
European legislator to object, on grounds relating to his or her particular
situation, at any time, to processing of personal data concerning him or her,
which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR. This also
applies to profiling based on these provisions. The Mills & more GmbH shall no
longer process the personal data in the event of the objection, unless we can
demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the
interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment,
exercise or defence of legal claims. If the Mills & more GmbH processes personal
data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject shall have the right to
object at any time to processing of personal data concerning him or her for such
marketing. This applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such
direct marketing. If the data subject objects to the Mills & more GmbH to the
processing for direct marketing purposes, the Mills & more GmbH will no longer
process the personal data for these purposes. In addition, the data subject has
the right, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to object to
processing of personal data concerning him or her by the Mills & more GmbH for
scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant
to Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the
performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest. In order to
exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact any employee of the
Mills & more GmbH. In addition, the data subject is free in the context of the
use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC,
to use his or her right to object by automated means using technical
specifications.
h) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling Each data subject
shall have the right granted by the European legislator not to be subject to a
decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which
produces legal effects concerning him or her, or similarly significantly affects
him or her, as long as the decision (1) is not is necessary for entering into,
or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data
controller, or (2) is not authorised by Union or Member State law to which the
controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard
the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is not
based on the data subject's explicit consent. If the decision (1) is necessary
for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject
and a data controller, or (2) it is based on the data subject's explicit
consent, the Mills & more GmbH shall implement suitable measures to safeguard
the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the
right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express his
or her point of view and contest the decision. If the data subject wishes to
exercise the rights concerning automated individual decision-making, he or she
may, at any time, contact any employee of the Mills & more GmbH.
i) Right to withdraw data protection consent Each data subject shall have the
right granted by the European legislator to withdraw his or her consent to
processing of his or her personal data at any time. If the data subject wishes
to exercise the right to withdraw the consent, he or she may, at any time,
contact any employee of the Mills & more GmbH.
7.Privacy Policy on Use and Use of 1und1 Webtracker
On our website we use 1und1-WebAnalytics, a web analysis service of 1und1
Internet SE, Elgendorfer Straße 57, 56410 Montabaur. 1und1 evaluates the user
behavior on our website via its service 1und1-WebAnalytics and logs the usage
data. Cookies are not used according to 1und1. The information about the use of
our web pages are transmitted to a server of 1und1 and stored there anonymously.
1und1 compiles anonymous reports about the website activities using the
determined usage data. According to 1und1, your IP address will be anonymised
and only shortened to exclude a reference to your person.
8. Legal basis for the processing
Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations
for which 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 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) lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such
processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual
measures, for example in the case of inquiries concerning our products or
services. Is our company subject to a legal obligation by which processing of
personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the
processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of
personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data
subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a
visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or
other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or
other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR.
Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This
legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of
the abovementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of
the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by 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. He considered that a
legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a client of the
controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).
9. The legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party
Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR our
legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favor of the well-being of
all our employees and the shareholders.
10. Period for which the personal data will be stored
The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the
respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the
corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary
for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.
11. Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement;
Requirement necessary to enter into a contract; Obligation of the data subject
to provide the 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 on 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 him or
her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the
contract with the data subject could not 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.
12. Existence of automated decision-making
As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or
profiling. This Privacy Policy has been generated by the Privacy Policy
Generator of the DGD - Your External DPO that was developed in cooperation with
German Lawyers from WILDE BEUGER SOLMECKE, Cologne.
