PRIVACY NOTICE
1. Introduction
We would like to use the information below to provide you “data subject” with an overview of our processing of your personal data and your rights under data protection law. It is generally possible to use our website without entering personal data. However, if you wish to make use of special services offered by our company through our website, it may be necessary to process personal data. If it is necessary to process personal data and there is no legal basis for such processing, we will generally obtain your consent.
Personal data, such as your name, address or email address, is always processed in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to the “cynora GmbH”. The aim of this Privacy Notice is to inform you about the scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process.
As the data controller, we have implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete possible protection of the personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can in principle have security gaps so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, you are free to submit personal data on alternative ways, such as by phone or by post to us.
2. Data controller
The data controller, as defined by the GDPR, is:
cynora GmbH
Werner-von-Siemens-Str. 2-6, 76646 Bruchsal, Deutschland

4. Legal basis for processing
Article 6 Paragraph 1(a) GDPR serves as our company?s legal basis for processing operations in which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose.
If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, processing is based on Article 6 Paragraph 1(b) GDPR. The same applies to those processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual measures, such as in cases of queries regarding our products or services.
If our company is subject to a legal obligation requiring the processing of personal data, such as for the fulfilment of tax obligations, processing is based on Article 6 Paragraph 1(c) GDPR.
In rare cases, processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if someone visiting our business were to be injured and their name, age, health insurance data or other vital information needed to be disclosed to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Processing would then be based on Article 6 Paragraph 1(d) GDPR.
Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6 Paragraph 1(f) GDPR. Processing operations not based on any of the above-mentioned legal bases may be carried out on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1(f) GDPR if processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or those of a third party, provided the interests and fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not take precedence. We are permitted to engage in such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned in European law. In this respect, the legislature took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if you are a customer of our company (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).
5. Technology
5.1. SSL/TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption to ensure the security of data processing and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders, login details or contact requests that you send to us as the website operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection by your browser?s address bar reading “https://” instead of “http://” and the lock symbol in the browser bar.
We use this technology to protect your transmitted data.
6. Cookies
6.1. General information about cookies
We use cookies on our website. Cookies are small files that are automatically created by your browser and stored on your IT system (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website.
Information generated from the specific device used is stored in cookies. This does not mean, however, that we will gain immediate knowledge of your identity.
The use of cookies helps us make it more convenient for you to use our website. For example, we use session cookies to detect whether you have already visited individual pages on our website. These are erased automatically when you leave our website.
We also use temporary cookies to optimise user-friendliness. These cookies are stored on your device for a specific period of time. If you return to our website to use our services, cookies allow us to automatically recognise that you have visited our website previously and remember the inputs and settings you have made so that you do not have to enter them again.
We also use cookies to statistically record the use of our website and analyse it for the purpose of optimising our services. These cookies allow us to automatically recognise that you have already visited our website when you visit our website again. These cookies are automatically erased after a defined period of time.
6.2. Legal basis for the use of cookies
The data processed by cookies, which are required for the proper functioning of the website, are to safeguard our legitimate interests pursuant to Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1(f) GDPR.
For all other cookies you have given your consent to this through our opt-in cookie banner in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1(a) GDPR.
7. Contents of our website
7.1. Contact/contact form
Personal data is collected when you contact us (e.g. using our contact form or by email). If you use a contact form to get in touch with us, the contact form you use will indicate the data being collected. This data is stored and used exclusively for the purpose of responding to your query or establishing contact and the associated technical administration. The legal basis for data processing is our legitimate interest in responding to your request pursuant to Article 6 Paragraph 1(f)f GDPR. If the aim of you contacting us is to conclude a contract, processing is also legally based on Article 6 Paragraph 1(b) GDPR. Your data will be erased once we have finished processing your query. This is the case when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the relevant facts have been clarified in a conclusive manner and there are no statutory retention obligations in place that prevent its erasure.
7.2. Application management/job exchange
We collect and process the personal data of applicants for the purpose of carrying out the application process. Processing may also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant submits corresponding application documents to us electronically, for example by email or via a web form on the website. If we conclude an employment contract with an applicant, the data transmitted will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions. If we do not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically erased two (2) months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of ours prevent their erasure. Other legitimate interests in this context include, for example, the duty to provide evidence in proceedings under the German Equal Treatment Act (Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgesetz [AGG]). The sole basis for the data processing is our legitimate interest in line with Article 6 Paragraph 1(f) GDPR.
8. Newsletters
8.1. Marketing newsletter
You can subscribe to our newsletter via our website. The input screen determines which personal data are shared with us when subscribing to the newsletter.
We use our newsletter to regularly communicate our offers to our customers and business partners. You can, therefore, only receive our company?s newsletter if
- you have a valid email address and
- have registered for the newsletter.
For legal reasons, as part of the double opt-in procedure a confirmation email will be sent to the email address you provided when registering for the newsletter. This confirmation email is sent to check if you are the holder of the email address and have authorised the newsletter.
When you register for the newsletter we also save the IP address used by your IT system at the time of registration, which is issued by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) as well as the date and time of registration. We must collect this data to investigate any (possible) misuse of your email address at a later stage and it is therefore lawful for the purposes of our security.
The personal data collected during registration are used solely for sending our newsletter. Furthermore, subscribers to the newsletter may receive information via email if this is required in order to administer the newsletter service for registration purposes, which may be the case if our newsletter is amended or technical circumstances change. Personal data collected for our newsletter service are not shared with third parties. You may terminate your subscription to our newsletter at any time. You can at any time withdraw your consent to the storage of the personal data you shared during registration. A link is provided in each newsletter to allow you to withdraw your consent. It is also possible to unsubscribe from our newsletter directly through the website or to contact us in another manner.
The legal basis for data processing for the purposes of sending a newsletter is article 6, paragraph 1 lit. a GDPR.
8.2. Newsletter tracking
Our newsletters contain what are known as tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic embedded in emails sent in HTML format to enable the recording and analysis of log files. This allows for a statistical analysis of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns. The embedded tracking pixel allows the company to determine if and when an email was opened by you and what links you accessed in the email.
We store and analyse the personal data collected via the tracking pixel contained in the newsletters in order to optimise the sending of our newsletters and to adapt the content of future newsletters to even better suit your interests. This personal data will not be disclosed to third parties. Data subjects are entitled to revoke the relevant declaration of consent granted separately and submitted via the double opt-in procedure at any time. Once consent has been revoked, we erase this personal data. Unsubscribing from the newsletter will automatically be interpreted as revocation.
This kind of analysis is carried out in particular in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1(f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interests in displaying personalised advertising, market research and/or the design of our website commensurate to market needs.
8.3. CleverReach
This website uses CleverReach to send newsletters. The provider is CleverReach GmbH & Co. KG, Mühlenstr. 43, 26180 Rastede. CleverReach is a service which enables the management and analysis of newsletters. The data you have provided for the newsletter (e.g. email address) are saved on CleverReach servers in Germany and/or Ireland.
We can analyse the behaviour of newsletter recipients by sending newsletters through CleverReach. Examples of analyses include determining how many recipients have opened the newsletter email and how often they have clicked on certain links contained within the newsletter. Conversion Tracking can also be used to analyse if clicking on the link led to a pre-determined action (e.g. if a product was purchased on our website). For further information on the analysis of data by the CleverReach newsletter, please visit: https://www.cleverreach.com/en/features/reporting-tracking/.
The legal basis for data processing is your consent (Article 6 Paragraph 1(a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the legality of data processing carried out previously.
If you do not want CleverReach to perform the data analysis, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide a link for this in each newsletter. You can also unsubscribe from the newsletter directly on our website.
The consent given by you can be withdrawn at any time. You can also prevent the processing at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. You can also prevent the storage of cookies by setting your web browser accordingly. Also, disabling Java Script in your web browser or installing a Java Script Blocker (such as https://noscript.net or https://www.ghostery.com) may prevent you from storing and transferring personal information. We point out that through these measures may no longer all the features of our website are available.
We will store your personal data which we retain for the purposes of sending the newsletter until you are removed from the newsletter service and they will be deleted from our servers and the CleverReach servers after you have unsubscribed from the newsletter. Data we retain for other purposes (e.g. email addresses for the members? area) shall remain unaffected.
For further information, please refer to CleverReach?s privacy policy at: https://www.cleverreach.com/en/privacy-policy/.
9. Our activities in social networks
To allow us to communicate with you on social networks and inform you about our services, we run our own pages on these social networks. If you visit one of our social media pages, we and the provider of the social media network are joint controllers (Art. 26 GDPR) regarding to the processing operations triggered thereby, which concern personal data.
We are not the original provider of these pages, but only use them within the scope of the options offered to us by the respective providers
We would therefore like to point out as a precautionary measure that your data may also be processed outside of the European Union or the European Economic Area. Use of these networks may therefore involve data protection risks for you since the protection of your rights may be difficult, e.g. your rights to information, erasure, objection, etc. Processing on social networks frequently takes place directly for advertising purposes or for the analysis of user behaviour by network providers, and we have no control over this. If the provider creates user profiles, cookies are often used or user behaviour may be assigned directly to your own member profile on the respective social network (if you are logged in).
The processing operations of personal data described are carried out in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1(f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interests and the legitimate interests of the respective provider in order to communicate with you in a timely manner or to inform you about our services. If you have to grant your consent to the respective providers to process your data as a user, the legal basis for this processing is Article 6 Paragraph 1(a) GDPR in conjunction with Article 7 GDPR.
Since we have no access to these providers? databases, we would like to point out that you would be best placed to exercise your rights (e.g. to information, rectification, erasure, etc.) directly with the respective provider. More information on the processing of your data on social networks and your options for exercising your right to object or your right of revocation (opt out) is listed below for each of the social network providers we use:

10. Web analytics
10.1. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (https://www.google.com/about/) (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; hereinafter referred to as “Google”), on our website. As part of this, pseudonymised user profiles are created and cookies (see the section on “Cookies”) are used. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website, such as your browser
- browser type/version
- operating system
- referrer URL (website previously visited), host
- name of the accessing computer (IP address) and
- time of server request,
is transmitted to a Google server in the US and stored there. This information is used to evaluate your use of this website, to compile reports on the website activities, and to perform further services linked to website and internet use for market research purposes and to tailor the design of this website. This information may also be sent to third parties if this is legally required or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google. Under no circumstances will your IP address be associated with any other data. IP addresses are anonymised so that it is not possible to assign them to individuals (known as IP masking).
You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; however, we would point out that this may result in you not being able to use all the features of this website.
These processing operations only take place if express consent is granted in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1(a) GDPR.
You can also prevent the data generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) from being sent to and processed by Google by downloading and installing the available browser add-on ( https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en).
As an alternative to the browser add-on, especially for browsers on mobile devices, you can also prevent Google Analytics from capturing data by clicking on the following link: Deactivate Google Analytics. This sets an opt-out cookie that prevents the future collection of your data when visiting this website. The opt-out cookie is only valid on this browser and only for our website and is stored on your device. If you erase the cookies stored for this browser, you will need to reset the opt-out cookie.
Additional information on data protection with respect to Google Analytics is available on the Google Analytics website in the help section (https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en).
11. Plugins and other services
11.1. Google Maps
We use Google Maps (API) on our website, provided through Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive maps to visually display geographic information. For example, by using this service, you can view our location and make it easier for you to reach us.
When you access sub-pages in which a Google Maps map is integrated, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transferred to Google’s servers in the US and stored there. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged in to or whether you have no user account with them at all. When you are logged in to Google, your information will be directly associated with your account. If you do not want your profile associated with Google, you will need to log out of your Google account. Google stores your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and analysis it. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, and you must contact Google to exercise this right.
Google Ireland Limited, headquartered in Ireland, is certified under the “Privacy Shield”, a US-European data protection accord which ensures compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.
If you do not agree with the future transmission of your data to Google as part of your use of Google Maps, you have the option of completely deactivating the Google Maps web service by switching off the JavaScript application in your browser. You will then be unable to use Google Maps and therefore the map displayed on this website.
These processing operations only take place if express consent is granted in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1(a) GDPR.
The Google terms of use can be found at https://www.google.com/policies/terms/regional.html, and the additional Google Maps terms of use can be found at https://www.google.com/help/terms_maps/.
Detailed information on data protection with respect to the use of Google Maps is available on Google?s website (“Google Privacy Policy”): https://www.google.com/policies/privacy.
11.2. Google reCAPTCHA
This website also uses the reCAPTCHA feature provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”). This feature is primarily used to differentiate whether an entry is made by a natural person or whether the function is being misused through mechanical and automated processing. Use of the service also involves sending the IP address and any other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service to Google. These processing operations only take place if express consent is granted in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1(a) GDPR.
Google Ireland Limited, headquartered in Ireland, is certified under the “Privacy Shield”, a US-European data protection accord which ensures compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.
Further information about Google reCAPTCHA and Google’s privacy policy can be found at: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.
11.3. Google WebFonts
Our website uses web fonts provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland for the uniform display of fonts. When you access a website, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly.
To do this, the browser you are using must connect to Google’s servers. This gives Google information that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web Fonts is in the interest of a uniform and appealing presentation of our website.
These processing operations only take place if express consent is granted in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1(a) GDPR.
Google Ireland Limited, headquartered in Ireland, is certified under the “Privacy Shield”, a US-European data protection accord which ensures compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.

12. Further processing operations of the cynora GmbH
12.1. Data protection for customers
For the purposes of pre-contractual offer phase or for contract performance or service provision, we process personal data, for example address and contact data, information about conversations which were held, your requirements, offers as well as any other information we receive from you. For corporate customers, we also process information about our contact partners, especially contact data. We may also store and process data about your bank account and/or your credit card information for the purposes of processing payments. Where external partners are part of service provision and/or contract performance, information required to perform the relevant service may be passed on to them. When processing such information, auxiliary systems (IT environment, CRM/ERP systems, financial accounting) may be used which are accessed by service providers as part of maintenance activities. In such cases, we conclude the required agreements for order processing. Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR serves as legal basis for data processing during contract initiation or contract performance, and Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR for all other cases.
12.2. Data protection for suppliers
During the process of selecting suppliers or service providers, we will store and process information about them. We may obtain and store further information, for example from information offices, when reviewing and/or assessing suppliers. For the purposes of order processing, we will also process order-specific information beyond your master data. For corporate contacts, we also process information about our contact partners, especially contact data. When processing such information, auxiliary systems (IT environment, CRM/ERP systems, financial accounting) may be used which are accessed by service providers as part of maintenance activities. In such cases, we conclude the required agreements for order processing. Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR serves as legal basis for data processing during contract initiation or contract performance, and Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR for all other cases.
12.3. Data protection for visitors
We document every person who is entering the company premises or the area used by us in order to check this documentation in case of a hazardous situation or evacuation and to provide the rescue services with information about missing persons. In addition, we use the information to be able to trace which visitors were in the building at what time in the event of later events, e.g. loss of trade secrets. This processing is necessary to secure the legitimate interest of the person responsible or a third party pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DS-GVO. In this case no interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the person concerned prevail (safeguarding the security of the processing pursuant to Art. 32 DS-GVO, access control). Your information will only be used internally and will only be transmitted to rescue services or the police in case of danger. The legal basis for the transmission is then Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d of the DS-GVO. The data is stored for 6 months. A transfer to third countries is not planned. You are obliged to provide the information as otherwise we will not be able to grant you access to the company premises.
12.4. Using Zoom for Video Conferencing
We use the Zoom Video Communications, Inc. 55 Almaden Blvd, Suite 600, San Jose, CA 95113, USA platform to conduct video conferences with our interlocutors. The legal basis is our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO to carry out high quality communication, also with remote dialogue partners. Zoom Video Communicatons, Inc. (Zoom), like other video conferencing providers, is a US service provider and certified under the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield. In addition, an adequate level of data protection is guaranteed by the fact that we have entered into a contract processing agreement with Zoom based on the EU standard contract clauses. The use of Zoom is voluntary for our business partners. No data is stored by us. With regard to processing at Zoom Video Communications, Inc. we refer to the data protection declaration https://zoom.us/de-de/privacy.html.
12.5 Existence of automated decision-finding
Being a responsible company, we forgo any automated decision-making processes or profiling.
12.6. Legal or contractual regulations for the provision of personal data
Necessity for contract conclusion; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision. We hereby inform you that the provision of personal data is in part legally required (for example tax regulations) or may result from contractual regulations (for example information about the contractual partner). Furthermore, a contract conclusion may necessitate for a data subject to provide personal which we then process. For example, the data subject is obligated to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with this data subject. Failure to provide the personal data would result in the contract not being concluded with the data subject. Before the data subject provides personal data, the data subject must contact our staff. Our staff will inform the data subject whether the provision of personal data is legally or contractually required or required for a contract conclusion, whether an obligation exists to provide the personal data and what the consequences of non-provision of personal data would be.
