Some of this information is recorded in cookies that are stored on your client. This is sometimes necessary in order to display the pages directly and to allow you to use the login area.

Our interest lies in being able to display the content of this website to you. The purpose of the processing is to be able to display this website to you and ensure that the website is displayed correctly without any errors.
(2) Cookiebot
This also includes giving you a choice as to which cookies are set and which information we collect concerning you. We use the services provided by Cybot A/S, Havnegade 39, 1058 Copenhagen, Denmark (Cookiebot) for this purpose.
We take into account your preferences and process data for marketing, analysis and personalisation purposes only if you give your consent by clicking on "Allow all cookies".

You have the option to contact us via our e-mail address or the contact form. We will, of course, use the personal data transmitted to us in this way solely for the purpose for which you provided the data to us.
If we ask you to enter data in our contact form that is not required to make contact, we will always mark these fields as optional. These details help us to find out more about your enquiry and improve how it is processed. This information is provided expressly on a voluntary basis and with your consent in accordance with Article 6(1a) GDPR. If the information relates to communication options (for example, e-mail address, telephone number), you also consent to us contacting you via this means of communication to respond to your enquiry.

(9) Google Maps plug-in
This site uses the map service Google Maps. Google Maps is a map service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
In order to use the functions of Google Maps, information, including the IP address and the address entered as part of the route function, can be transmitted to the provider's servers. This information is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. When you visit a site that includes Google Maps, your browser connects directly to Google's servers, and the map content is sent to and embedded by your browser. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transfer. According to current knowledge, this includes the following data:
- the date and time of the visit to the website in question.
- Internet address or URL of the web page accessed,
- IP address, (start) address entered during route planning
The use of Google Maps is in the interest of an attractive presentation of our online offers and easy findability of the places we have indicated on the website. If you do not want Google to process data via this service, you can deactivate the use of JavaScript in your browser settings. Please note that in this case the interactive map function of Google Maps cannot be used.
You can find more information on how we handle user data in Google's privacy policy.

We use a social plugin from YouTube, Google on our website (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). The controller for users in the EU/EEA and Switzerland is Google Ireland Limited, Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.
The plugin allows you to view, share and comment on content. Personal data is also transmitted to the provider via the plugin. We do not have any influence over the scope of the data that is collected using the plugin.
To prevent data from being transferred against your wishes, the plugins are disabled on this website by default. The plugin is not enabled until you click on the relevant icon; data can then be transmitted to the provider. For this purpose, when the plugin is enabled, a connection is established between your browser and the YouTube server. If the plugin is enabled, information such as your IP address, the fact that you have visited our site and other browser-related information is transmitted as soon as you access our site.
Further information on the data that is collected through the integration of social plugins and the purpose for which the data is used can be found in the Google Privacy Policy.
The purpose is being able to provide additional information to you. If you have provided your consent to us, this forms the legal basis in accordance with Article 6(1a) GDPR.
4. Data transfer to other companies within the Roto Group
As a general rule, your data is not transmitted to third parties outside of the Roto Group unless we are legally obligated to do so or the data transfer is required to perform the contract or you have expressly given your prior consent to the transfer of your data. External service providers and partner companies will receive your data only to the extent required to process your enquiry. However, in these cases, the data transmitted is limited to the minimum extent required. If our service providers come into contact with your personal data, we will ensure that they comply with the applicable data protection regulations as we do. Please also note the relevant privacy policies of the providers. The relevant service provider is responsible for the content of third-party services, although we check the services for compliance with the statutory requirements within the bounds of what is reasonable.
5. Data transfer to external service providers (processors)
Your data will be passed on to service partners to the extent that they are acting on our behalf and supporting Roto in the provision of its services. Any processing of your personal data by commissioned service providers is carried out within the scope of commissioned data processing in accordance with Article 28 GDPR. Service providers receive access only to the personal information that is required to carry out the relevant activity. These service providers are prohibited from passing on your personal information or using your personal information for other purposes, in particular for their own advertising purposes. Insofar as external service providers come into contact with your personal data, we have taken legal, technical and organisational measures and perform regular checks to ensure that these service providers also comply with the applicable data protection regulations.
6. Data erasure and storage period
The personal data of data subjects is erased or blocked as soon the purpose of storage no longer applies. The data may continue to be stored beyond this period if stipulated by European or national legislators in regulations or legislation under Union law or other regulations to which the controller is subject. The data will likewise then be blocked or erased once a storage period prescribed by the specified regulations expires, unless the data needs to be retained further for the purposes of concluding or executing a contract.
For information regarding the storage period for cookies, please refer to the information on Cookiebot.
7. Your rights
If personal data concerning you is processed, you are a data subject as defined in the GDPR and you have the following rights with respect to the controller:

We will notify you before lifting the restriction.
(4) Right to erasure

If you have asserted against us the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing, we are obligated in accordance with Article 19 GDPR to notify all recipients of your personal data of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing unless this proves to be impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. You also have the right to be notified of these recipients. You have the right to be informed of these recipients by the controller.
(6) Right to data portability
Furthermore, in accordance with Article 20 GDPR, you have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in a machine-readable format and to transmit the data to another controller without hindrance, provided that the requirements defined in Article 20(1a) GDPR are met, or to have your personal data transmitted directly by us to another controller, where this is technically feasible and does not impair the rights and freedoms of others.

(8) Right to withdraw consent under data protection law
You have the right to withdraw your consent under data protection law at any time by notifying Roto Frank Fenster- und Türtechnologie GmbH accordingly. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
