GENERAL

We, the editors of the OR Laser Service website (OR Laser Service), take the protection of your personal data very seriously and adhere strictly to the rules of data protection laws. Personal data is collected on this website only to the extent that is technically necessary. Under no circumstances will the collected data be sold or passed on to third parties for other reasons.

As new technologies and the ongoing development of this website may result in changes to this privacy policy, we recommend that you review the privacy policy at regular intervals.

The following statement provides an overview of how we ensure this protection and what type of data is collected for what purpose.

 

DATA PROCESSING ON THIS WEBSITE

OR Laser Service automatically collects and stores information that your browser transmits to us in its server log files. This includes:

• Browser type/version
• operating system used
• Website visited
• Host name of the accessing computer (IP address)
• Time of server request
• Amount of data sent in bytes

This data cannot be attributed to specific individuals by OR Laser Service. This data is not combined with other data sources, and is deleted after statistical analysis.

 

RANGE MEASUREMENT & COOKIES

The Internet pages use so-called cookies in several places. They serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser. Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses.

The use of cookies increases the user-friendliness and security of this website. This website and common browsers offer the option of disabling cookies in your settings. Please note: If you disable cookies, you may not be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions.

 

COLLECTION AND PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA

The website operator collects, uses, and discloses your personal data only if this is permitted by law or if you consent to the collection of data.

Personal data is any information that can be used to identify you and that can be traced back to you—for example, your name, email address, and phone number.

You can also visit this website without providing any personal information. However, in order to improve our online offering, we store your access data to this website (without personal reference). This access data includes, for example, the file you requested or the name of your Internet service provider. The anonymization of the data means that it is not possible to draw any conclusions about your person.

 

GOOGLE ANALYTICS

We use a service called “Google Analytics” to collect information about the use of our website. “Google Analytics” is a service provided by Google Inc. (Google) that generates detailed statistics about the online traffic and sources of a website and measures Adword conversions and sales. Google Analytics uses cookies stored on your computer to analyze how users use our website. For example, Google Analytics collects information about how often users visit our website, which pages they visit, and which other websites they visited before visiting this website. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the US and stored there.

We use the information we receive from Google Analytics solely to improve our website. Google Analytics only collects the IP address assigned to you on the day you visit this website, but does not store your name or other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personal data. A cookie stored in your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit this website may only be used by Google. Google's use of the information collected in this manner is subject to the Google Analytics Terms of Use, Google's Privacy Policy, and applicable EU laws and regulations. Google LLC complies with European data protection law and is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active

IP anonymization is used on this website. The IP address of users within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area and in the other signatory states to the agreement is truncated. Only in individual cases is the IP address first transmitted in full to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. This truncation removes the personal reference from your IP address. The user's IP address transmitted by the browser is not combined with other data stored by Google.

As part of the agreement on order data processing that we as website operators have concluded with Google Inc., Google uses the collected information to evaluate website usage and website activity and to provide services related to internet usage.

The data collected by Google on our behalf is used to evaluate the use of our online offering by individual users, e.g., to create reports on website activity in order to improve our online offering.

You can prevent cookies from being stored on your device by adjusting your browser settings accordingly. However, we cannot guarantee that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies.

Furthermore, you can use a browser plugin to prevent the information collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to Google Inc. and used by Google Inc. The following link will take you to the corresponding plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

Alternatively, you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you within this website by clicking on this link (IMPORTANT: insert opt-out link). By clicking on the link above, you will download an “opt-out cookie.” Your browser must therefore allow cookies to be stored. If you delete your cookies regularly, you will need to click on the link again each time you visit this website.

LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES
This privacy policy applies only to this website and not to websites owned by third parties. Our web pages may contain links to other websites that we believe may be of interest to you and our visitors. Due to the dynamic nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee the privacy standards of websites to which we link or their content. This privacy policy therefore applies expressly only to our own website and not to linked websites.

 

USE OF FACEBOOK SOCIAL MEDIA PLUGINS

Based on our legitimate interest in analyzing, optimizing, and operating our online offering (within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR), this website uses the Facebook social plugin, which is operated by Facebook Inc. (1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA). The integrations can be recognized by the Facebook logo or the terms “Like,” “Like me,” and “Share” in Facebook's colors (blue and white). Information about all Facebook plugins can be found at the following link: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/

Facebook Inc. complies with European data protection law and is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC&status=Active

The plugin establishes a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook servers. The website operator has no influence whatsoever on the nature and scope of the data that the plugin transmits to the servers of Facebook Inc. Information on this can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/help/186325668085084

The plugin informs Facebook Inc. that you, as a user, have visited this website. It is possible that your IP address will be stored. If you are logged into your Facebook account while visiting this website, the aforementioned information will be linked to it.

If you use the plugin's functions—for example, by sharing or “liking” a post—the corresponding information will also be transmitted to Facebook Inc.

If you want to prevent Facebook Inc. from linking this data to your Facebook account, please log out of Facebook before visiting this website and delete the stored cookies. You can use your Facebook profile to change further settings for data processing for advertising purposes or to object to the use of your data for advertising purposes.

PLUGINS AND TOOLS

Google re-Captcha:

For your own security, we use the Google service reCaptcha for our contact form. This determines whether a human or a computer is making a particular entry in our contact or newsletter form. Google uses the following data to check whether you are a human or a computer: This may include the IP address of the device you are using, the website you are visiting on our site where the captcha is integrated, the date and duration of your visit, the identification data of the browser and operating system type you are using, your Google account if you are logged in to Google, mouse movements on the reCaptcha areas, and tasks in which you have to identify images are transmitted to Google servers. The legal basis for the data processing described is Art. 6 (1) (f) of the General Data Protection Regulation. However, there is also a legitimate interest in using this service on our website, as it helps to ensure the security of our website and protects us from automated entries (attacks).

Under no circumstances will we pass on information that we receive from you in this way to third parties.

DATA SECURITY
We make every effort to protect our users from unauthorized access to or unauthorized modification, disclosure, or destruction of data. In particular, we encrypt all transactions via our website, especially form data (which you send to us via our web form) using SSL. We also restrict access to personal data to a small number of employees or individuals who have been expressly authorized by us to process this data and who absolutely need to know the data in order to process it. Individuals who have been authorized by us to process data are subject to strict confidentiality obligations and disciplinary measures and may be terminated if they fail to comply with these obligations.

Handling comments and posts
