2. General information

We take the protection of your personal data seriously. Personal data is processed solely within the framework of the statutory provisions, in particular the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz, BDSG). This policy explains which data is collected when you visit this website and how it is handled.

3. Data collected when you visit the website

Server log files

When you access the website, the hosting provider automatically collects technical access data (known as server log files), such as browser type and version, operating system, referrer URL, time of the request and IP address. This data is used to ensure trouble-free operation and IT security and is not combined with other data sources. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in providing the website securely).

Cookies and browser storage

This website does not set any cookies for visitors. If you use the ‘Pause animations’ button in the footer, your browser stores this choice in localStorage (entry ‘mink-bewegung’) so that the striped band stays still on your next visit. This storage is technically necessary for the function you requested (§ 25(2) no. 2 TDDDG). Nothing is sent to us; you can delete the entry at any time in your browser settings.

Fonts and images

Fonts and images are loaded from our own server. No third-party content (such as Google Fonts or map services) is embedded.

4. Contacting us

If you send us an enquiry by phone, fax, email or via the enquiry form, your details (name, company, contact details, content of the enquiry) are stored in order to process the enquiry and to deal with any follow-up questions. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (initiating or performing a haulage contract) and Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. This data is not passed on without your consent.

Details entered in the enquiry form are not stored on the website. As soon as you submit the form, the website sends them to us by email over an encrypted connection; they are then handled like any other email enquiry and deleted once they are no longer needed to deal with your enquiry or to meet statutory retention obligations.

To prevent the form from being misused for advertising or automated mass submissions, the website checks every enquiry without using third-party services: it makes sure that the form is not submitted immediately after the page has loaded and that each form is submitted only once, and it detects typical advertising content. To limit repeated submissions, the website counts enquiries per IP address (one hour) and per email address (24 hours). Only an irreversible check value generated with a secret key and a counter are stored, never the address itself and never the content of your enquiry; the counters are deleted when the period expires. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in protection against misuse).

5. External links

This website contains a link to Google Maps for route planning and a link to our Instagram profile. When you follow one of these links, you leave this website, and the privacy policy of the respective provider applies.

6. Your rights

• Access to the personal data stored about you (Art. 15 GDPR)
• Rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR)
• Erasure, unless statutory retention obligations apply (Art. 17 GDPR)
• Restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
• Data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
• Objection to processing (Art. 21 GDPR)
• Withdrawal of consent given, with effect for the future (Art. 7(3) GDPR)
• Lodging a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR); the competent authority is the Landesbeauftragte für den Datenschutz und die Informationsfreiheit Baden-Württemberg (State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information of Baden-Württemberg)
