Matomo (formerly “PIWIK”)
As an analysis tool, this website is based on Matomo. Matomo is an open source tool in the field of web analytics. Matomo does not transmit data to servers that are outside the control of EMIL EGGER AG. Matomo uses cookies. These text files are stored on your device and allow us to analyze and continuously optimize this website. Usage information obtained through the cookies is transmitted to the server of our provider Metanet, located in Switzerland, and stored so that user behavior can be analyzed. The IP address is transmitted anonymously – so you remain anonymous as a user. The information generated by the cookies about the use of the website is not shared. EMIL EGGER AG only uses technically necessary cookies (e.g. shopping cart cookie). These do not require explicit consent from the user of the website.

WiredMinds LeadLab
Our website uses the tracking pixel technology of WiredMinds. Here, the IP address of a visitor is collected. Only company names are processed. The IP addresses of natural persons are excluded from the use of WiredMinds by means of a whitelist procedure. LeadLab by WiredMinds does not collect any personal data and is 100% privacy compliant. LeadLab is a B2B-only tool.

Use of Google Maps
We use the component “Google Maps” of the company Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter “Google”, on our website.

With each individual call of the “Google Maps” component, a cookie is set by Google in order to process user settings and data when displaying the page on which the “Google Maps” component is integrated. This cookie is usually not deleted by closing the browser, but expires after a certain time, unless you delete it manually beforehand.

If you do not agree with this processing of your data, you have the option of deactivating the “Google Maps” service and in this way preventing the transfer of data to Google. To do this, you must disable the Java Script function in your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case you will not be able to use “Google Maps” or only to a limited extent.

The use of “Google Maps” and the information obtained via “Google Maps” is subject to the Google Terms of Use https://policies.google.com/terms?hl=de&gl=de and the additional terms and conditions for “Google Maps ” https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/help/terms_maps.html.

Google Analytics Remarketing
Our websites use the functions of Google Analytics Remarketing in conjunction with the cross-device functions of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

This feature allows advertising audiences created with Google Analytics Remarketing to be linked to Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick cross-device features. In this way, interest-based, personalized advertising messages that have been adapted to you depending on your previous usage and surfing behavior on one end device (e.g. cell phone) can also be displayed on another of your end devices (e.g. tablet or PC).

If you have given your consent, Google will link your web and app browsing history to your Google Account for this purpose. In this way, the same personalized advertising messages can be displayed on every device on which you log in with your Google account.

To support this feature, Google Analytics collects google-authenticated IDs of users that are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data to define and create target groups for cross-device ad advertising.

You can permanently object to cross-device remarketing/targeting by deactivating personalized advertising in your Google account; follow this link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.

The aggregation of the collected data in your Google account is based solely on your consent, which you can give or revoke at Google (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). In the case of data collection processes that are not merged in your Google account (e.g. because you do not have a Google account or have objected to the merger), the collection of the data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest arises from the fact that the website operator has an interest in the anonymized analysis of website visitors for advertising purposes.

For more information and the privacy policy, please see Google’s privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=de.

Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking
This website uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program of Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Within the scope of Google AdWords, we use the so-called conversion tracking. When you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie is set for conversion tracking. Cookies are small text files that the Internet browser stores on the user’s computer. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page.

Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked through AdWords customers’ websites. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Clients learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified. If you do not wish to participate in the tracking, you can object to this use by easily deactivating the Google conversion tracking cookie via your internet browser under user settings. They will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

The storage of “conversion cookies” and the use of this tracking tool are based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its web offering and its advertising.

For more information on Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking, please see Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.

When cookies are disabled, the functionality of this website may be limited.

Facebook Pixel
Our website uses the visitor action pixel from Facebook, Facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”) for conversion measurement.

This makes it possible to track the behavior of page visitors after they have been redirected to the provider’s website by clicking on a Facebook ad. This allows the effectiveness of Facebook ads to be evaluated for statistical and market research purposes and future advertising measures to be optimized.

The collected data is anonymous for us as the operator of this website, we can not draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook, so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes, in accordance with the Facebook Data Use Policy.

YouTube with enhanced privacy
Our website uses plugins of the website YouTube. The operator of the pages is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use YouTube in extended data protection mode. According to YouTube, this mode causes YouTube not to store information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. The transfer of data to YouTube partners, on the other hand, is not necessarily excluded by the extended data protection mode. Thus, YouTube – regardless of whether you watch a video – connects to the Google DoubleClick network.

As soon as you start a YouTube video on our website, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

Furthermore, YouTube may store various cookies on your end device after starting a video. These cookies allow YouTube to obtain information about visitors to our website. This information is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve the user experience, and prevent fraud attempts. The cookies remain on your terminal device until you delete them.

If necessary, further data processing operations may be triggered after the start of a YouTube video, over which we have no control.

YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

If your application relates to a specific job advertisement, we store the relevant application data beyond the conclusion of the application process for this position only to the extent necessary to protect our legitimate interests. The storage period is a maximum of six months. Within this time, the application is checked and the information is available until the expiry of the storage period, also in order to be able to answer later inquiries (e.g. request for documents, rejections, etc.) in a qualified manner. In the context of application procedures, no data is collected from third parties unless consent has been given. There is no data transfer to third parties.

Storage for future job postings

If you give us this consent, we will store your application data in our applicant management system for 24 months and use it exclusively for suitable vacancies. You can revoke your consent at any time during this period.

The legal basis for data collection is provided by sections 6 no. 8 and 49 of the German Data Protection Act (DSG-EKD), as well as other legal requirements that result in storage obligations when employment relationships are established, e.g. section 147 of the German Tax Code (AO), section 257 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), section 35 para. 1 SRVwV etc.
On the basis of §§ 17, 18 DSG-EKD, applicants have the right to information (§ 19 DSG-EKD) about the personal data concerning them at any time and subsequently, if necessary, the further right to correction (§ 20 DSG-EKD) or deletion (§ 21 DSG-EKD) or to restriction of processing (§ 22 DSG-EKD). In particular, there is the right to delete stored data at any time(§ 21 DSG-EKD) or to object to it (§ 25 DSG-EKD). A deletion request or an objection leads to a termination of the application process and subsequently no more information can be provided regarding the process flow.
After the establishment of an employment relationship, the right to delete data or restrict processing is reduced. Legal and/or contractual regulations on documentation and archiving take precedence over requests for deletion.
