1. General information
We, Leo Hillinger GmbH, are committed to the highest possible level of protection and greatest possible care in handling your personal data – from collection through to processing and storage – during your visit to our website. This commitment is based on Austrian and European data protection law.

This privacy policy applies solely to the website of Leo Hillinger GmbH. Individual pages may contain links to other providers within and outside the Leo Hillinger GmbH group, to which this privacy policy does not extend. We therefore accept no liability for such content or for the use and processing of data by those third parties.

Information on data processing pursuant to Art. 13 and 14 GDPR

Below you will also find information on the type, scope and purpose of the collection and use of data when you visit our website.

3. Collection and storage of personal data
Each time you access our website, your browser automatically transmits the data listed below to our web servers for technical reasons. Storage is used exclusively for statistical and technical purposes, for example to evaluate the frequency of page visits or to identify disruptions in server operation.

The following data are logged and analysed:
• Request (file name of the requested file)
• Browser type and version
• Operating system used
• Referrer URL, i.e. the website from which you accessed our site
• IP address
• Date and time of your visit
• Pages visited within our website
• Any form contents
• Username and password (for registrations)

Further personal data, such as name, home address, email address, date of birth or transaction-related data, are only collected if you provide them yourself. On our website, you may provide such data for example when applying online, using the feedback form, creating an online account or subscribing to a newsletter.

4. Use and disclosure of personal data
Personal data submitted by you will only be used to process your request, to fulfil contracts concluded with you, or for technical administration purposes.

If you have given us your consent to process your personal data, processing will only take place for the purposes specified in the consent declaration and to the extent agreed therein. You will therefore only receive advertising or email newsletters from us on the basis of your consent. Any consent given may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future, free of charge: via the unsubscribe link provided in electronic newsletters, or by written or telephone notification using any of the contact details listed.

Only those departments and employees of Leo Hillinger GmbH who require your data to fulfil contractual, legal and regulatory obligations and legitimate interests will have access to it. For technical and organisational implementation purposes, we also engage selected processors. All processors are contractually obliged to treat your personal data as confidential and to process it only within the scope of service provision in accordance with our instructions.

5. Right of access, rectification, erasure or restriction of processing, right to object and data portability
You have the right at any time to access, rectify, erase or restrict the processing of your stored data, to object to processing, and to exercise the right to data portability, subject to the conditions set out in data protection law.
Complaints may be directed to the Austrian Data Protection Authority.

6. Data security
The security of your data in our systems is of great importance to us. Our aim is to manage your data with the utmost care and to implement all necessary technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data from loss and misuse.

Access to almost all of our websites is secured via HTTPS, provided your browser supports SSL. This means that communication between your device and our servers is encrypted. Should you wish to contact us or our staff by email, please be aware that the confidentiality of the information transmitted cannot be guaranteed. Due to the technical design of email, its contents may be viewed by third parties unless specific technical security measures are in place.

7. Web analytics & cookies
In order to analyse, improve and tailor the structure and navigation of our website to your needs, we use analytics tools on our website.

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). This analytics service uses cookies – small files stored on your computer – that enable analysis of your use of our website. Information about your use of our website collected via cookies is used to evaluate overall website usage, to compile reports on website activity and to enable us to further optimise our website and provide additional services related to website and internet use. The information generated by Google Analytics cookies about your use of the website – including your anonymised IP address – is transmitted to a Google Inc. server in the USA. Anonymisation is achieved by removing the last eight bits of the IP address, making it impossible to uniquely attribute the data obtained to a specific IP address. This information is passed on to authorities or third parties where required by law or where third parties act as service providers on behalf of Google. However, it is possible to prevent cookies from being stored by adjusting your browser settings accordingly. Please note that if you refuse to allow cookies in your browser settings, some features of our website may no longer be available. By using our website, you consent to the use of Google Analytics. Further information about Google Analytics can be found at: http://www.google.at/intl/de/analytics. Google’s Privacy Policy can be found at http://www.google.de/policies/privacy. An option to opt out of Google Analytics and the associated data transmission to Google is available here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

We also use cookies to make our services as user-friendly as possible. Cookies are small text files stored on your device to recognise you when you return to our website. Cookies may be stored permanently or only for the duration of a session. Two types of cookies are used: necessary cookies, which enable basic website functions, and targeting cookies, which help us optimise the structure and navigation of our website and thereby improve service quality. In both cases, your IP address is immediately shortened and anonymised so that it can no longer be attributed to you. No personal data is therefore collected, analysed or linked to other such data. You can also prevent the installation of all types of cookies by adjusting your browser settings accordingly. Please note that if you do so, not all features of our website may be fully available.

A general opt-out from cookies used for online marketing purposes – particularly in the case of tracking – can be declared for a large number of services via the US website http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU website http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. Cookies can also be disabled via your browser settings. Please note that some features of this online service may not then be available.

All collected usage information is not shared with third parties.

8. Email traffic logging
To ensure appropriate information and system security and to detect malware, we store log data relating to email traffic. When you send an email to one of our addresses, the following data are logged: email and IP address of the recipient and sender, number of recipients, subject line, date and time of receipt at the server, file name of any attachments, message size, spam risk classification and delivery status. Emails are first checked in a fully automated process. Individual emails are only reviewed manually by responsible persons in the event of suspected threats to IT system security.

We also process your personal data in connection with emails, where necessary, for the duration of the entire business initiation process and thereafter in accordance with statutory retention and documentation obligations.

9. Social media
We integrate social media plug-ins, iFrames and services from various social networks on our website. These include Facebook, Instagram, iMessage, Google Maps and YouTube.

We prevent data transmission to these services to the greatest extent possible. Only when you click on the icon of a service and actively access it will data such as your IP address and cookies be transmitted, and the service will receive information that you have visited our website with your IP address. If you are actively logged in to one of the social media networks, this information will be associated with your user account. Please note that we ourselves have neither reliable knowledge of nor any influence over how and what data is transmitted to the respective services. By activating and using a social media plug-in, you consent to the associated transmission of personal data to the selected service.

For current information on the type, purpose, scope, use and protection of your data by these networks, as well as your related rights, please refer to the privacy policy of the relevant service provider. To the best of our knowledge, these are as follows. We do not guarantee the completeness or accuracy of this information:

11. Publication of data
In principle, data provided to us will not be published or made available to other users. However, the purpose of certain website functions is to publish specific data and make it available to other users. In such cases, you will be informed of this before clicking the relevant button that triggers such publication, and separate consent will be obtained.

12. Transmission of applicant data
By submitting your application documents, you consent to the processing by Leo Hillinger GmbH of personal data such as your name, title, address, telephone number, date of birth, education, professional experience, salary expectations and any data and images contained in your cover letter, CV, certificates or other documents submitted, for the purpose of processing your application and conducting the recruitment process.

If Leo Hillinger GmbH concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of managing the employment relationship in compliance with statutory requirements. If no employment contract is concluded, the application documents will be deleted six months after notification of the rejection decision, unless consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR has been given for retention for a period of two years. Your consent may be withdrawn at any time without giving reasons by contacting us at the details provided above.
Data processing is carried out on the basis of the statutory provisions of § 96(3) TKG and Art. 6(1)(a) (consent) and (b) (necessary for the performance of a contract) GDPR.

13. Online cancellation form

If you cancel a contract via our website, we process the data entered in the form. This includes in particular your first name, last name, email address, order number and any information provided in the free-text field. We use this data to receive, process and document the cancellation, and to send an acknowledgement of receipt by email. The data will not be used for marketing purposes. Processing is carried out for the purpose of handling the contractual relationship and fulfilling legal obligations. The data will be deleted once it is no longer required and there are no statutory retention obligations to the contrary.

We reserve the right to update this privacy policy as necessary in response to technical developments and legal changes, or in connection with the introduction of new services or products.
