Data Protection
The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the applicable data protection laws and this privacy policy.
When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data refers to information with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains which data we collect, how we use it, and for what purpose.
Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating by email) may have security vulnerabilities. A complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
Information on the Responsible Entity
The responsible entity for data processing on this website is:
Lukas Rudrof
Ludwig-Thoma Str. 1
92245 Kümmersbruck
Email: hello@novum.supply
The responsible entity is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).
Storage Period
Unless a more specific storage period is mentioned in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you make a justified request for deletion or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., retention obligations under tax or commercial law). In the latter case, deletion will occur once these reasons no longer apply.
Legal Bases of Data Processing on This Website
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data based on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or, if special categories of data are processed, based on Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR. In the case of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR.
If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information on your device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), processing is also based on § 25(1) TDDDG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.
If your data is necessary for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures, processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, data may be processed if required for compliance with a legal obligation pursuant to Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also be based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Information on the relevant legal basis in each case is provided in the following sections of this privacy policy.
Recipients of Personal Data
In the course of our business activities, we work with various external entities. In some cases, the transfer of personal data to these external entities is necessary. We only share personal data with third parties if it is required for the fulfillment of a contract, if we are legally obligated to do so (e.g., disclosure to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the disclosure.
When using processors, we transfer personal data of our customers only on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In cases of joint processing, a joint processing agreement will be concluded.
Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw consent already granted at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Right to Object to Data Processing in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS.
THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES TO ASSERT, EXERCISE, OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(1) GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR SUCH MARKETING PURPOSES; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING IN CONNECTION WITH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(2) GDPR).
Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged violation. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, delivered to yourself or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.
Information, Rectification, and Deletion
Within the scope of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, and, if necessary, the right to rectification or deletion of this data. For this purpose and for further questions about personal data, you may contact us at any time.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:
- If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. During the verification period, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
- If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
- If we no longer need your personal data but you require it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
- If you have objected pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of your and our interests must be carried out. As long as it has not been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data may – apart from being stored – only be processed with your consent, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
SSL or TLS Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser’s address line changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
3. Data Collection on This Website
Cookies
Our websites use “cookies.” Cookies are small data packages and do not cause any damage to your device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your device. Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them or your web browser automatically deletes them.
Cookies may originate from us (first-party cookies) or third-party companies (third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services of third-party companies within websites (e.g., cookies for payment processing services).
Cookies serve various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., shopping cart function or displaying videos). Other cookies may be used to analyze user behavior or for advertising purposes.
Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide certain functions you have requested (e.g., shopping cart), or to optimize the website (e.g., measuring web audience) are stored based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies and similar recognition technologies was requested, processing takes place exclusively on this basis (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TDDDG); consent can be revoked at any time.
You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies, to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for specific cases or in general, and to enable the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
Which cookies and services are used on this website can be found in this privacy policy.
Server Log Files
The provider of these pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These include:
- Browser type and version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Hostname of the accessing computer
- Time of the server request
- IP address
This data will not be combined with other data sources.
The collection of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of their website – for this, the server log files must be recorded.
Cloudflare (Content Delivery Network)
We use a Content Delivery Network (CDN) provided by Cloudflare Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA (“Cloudflare”). A CDN is a service that distributes large files such as images, scripts, or other content via a network of regionally distributed servers. Using Cloudflare helps us improve the performance and stability of our website.
The use of Cloudflare takes place on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the secure, efficient, and optimized provision of our online services as well as the protection of our systems.
Cloudflare may process data in server log files (e.g., IP addresses, system configuration, and other technical details) and use technically necessary cookies for security and performance purposes. These are not intended for user tracking.
We have concluded a data processing agreement (Data Processing Addendum, available at:
https://www.cloudflare.com/media/pdf/cloudflare-customer-dpa.pdf) with Cloudflare, in which Cloudflare undertakes to protect the data of our website visitors and not to disclose it to third parties without authorization. For data transfers from the EU to the USA, Cloudflare relies on the Standard Contractual Clauses of the European Commission, which are intended to ensure an adequate level of data protection in the USA.
For further information, please refer to Cloudflare’s privacy policy: https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/
Requests by Email, Phone, or Fax
If you contact us by email, phone, or fax, your inquiry, including all personal data resulting from it (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not share this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries directed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), if requested. Consent can be revoked at any time.
The data you send us via contact inquiries will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – particularly statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.
Liability for External Links
Our website contains links to external websites operated by third parties, over whose content we have no control. Therefore, we cannot assume any responsibility or liability for these external contents. The respective provider or operator of the linked pages is always responsible for the content of those pages.
At the time of linking, the linked websites were checked for possible legal violations; no unlawful content was identified at that time. A continuous monitoring of the content of linked websites is, however, not reasonable without concrete indications of a legal infringement. Should we become aware of any legal violations, we will remove such links immediately.
