Introduction
You leave digital traces when you visit our website. Some of those traces may contain personally identifiable information, even if this is not practical or intentional for this website. The following pages inform you about what happens with your personal information when you visit our website.
As a general rule, you may use these pages without us being aware of your identity or trying to find out your identity: Personal information (“digital traces”) shared when visiting a website not only includes data such as your name and address that you may enter a contact form but also IP addresses. An IP address is the number of a computer (or smart phone, tablet, etc.) that identifies the computer on the Internet. The transmission of web pages over the Internet requires knowing the IP address of the computer accessing the website. However, we do not know or try to find out the user’s identity.

Visiting our website
When you access our website, your browser will automatically send information to our website server in the background. This information is saved temporarily in what is called a log file. As a general principle, we never fully record or save your IP address. Any information recorded or saved is abbreviated and thus anonymous.
The following information is stored automatically when you access our Website:
- Browser type/version
- Operating system used
- Page previously accessed (referrer URL)
- Host name of the accessing computer
- Time of server request
We need this data because:
- A smooth connection of the website must be ensured,
- System security and stability must be assessed and controlled,
- They are used for other administrative purposes.
Legal basis:
Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest is based on the above purposes for data collection.
Storage period:
14 days. Should there be any evidence of security problems, data will be stored for a longer period so the incident can be resolved.
Apart from this, we use so-called cookies on our website. Details are provided below in this privacy policy in the section on cookies.
Friendly Captcha
This website uses a service provided by Friendly Captcha GmbH (Am Anger 3-5, 82237 Wörthsee, Germany).
Friendly Captcha is a new, privacy-friendly solution to prevent automated programs and scripts (so-called “bots”) from affecting our website. For this purpose, we have integrated Friendly Captcha into our website (e.g. for contact forms). When a visitor access our website, a connection is established to the servers of Friendly Captcha in order to send a puzzle to the device of the visitor. The visitor’s device solves the puzzle, which requires certain system resources, and sends the result to our web server. It contacts the Friendly Captcha server via an interface and receives a response indicating whether the puzzle was solved correctly. Depending on the result, we can apply security rules to the request via our website and, for example, process it further or reject it.
We use data solely for protection against spam and bots as described above. Friendly Captcha does not set or read any cookies on the visitor’s device. Friendly Captcha anonymize IP addresses using a one-way hash of certain values so they cannot be personally identified.
Legal basis:
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interests are the protection of our website against abusive access by bots, consequently spam protection and protection against attacks (e.g. mass requests).
Storage period:
We do not store any personal data in this regard.
Further information on data protection when using Friendly Captcha can be found at https://friendlycaptcha.com/legal/privacy-end-users/.
If you send us an email enquiry, we will save your contact information and the contents of the email and use both to process your inquiry. Please note that unencrypted emails are not sufficiently protected from being read, modified or deleted by third parties. If you do not want to take this risk, give us a call. We only use your data in emails until your inquiry has been processed.
Legal basis:
Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest is offering our website visitors an uncomplicated possibility of getting in touch.
Storage period:
The stored data is kept until the purpose of the processing ceases to apply and no statutory retention periods oppose deletion. The storage period is also assessed according to the statutory limitation periods, which, for example, according to §§195 ff. of the German Civil Code (BGB), are usually 3 years, but in certain cases can be up to 30 years.

If you subscribe to the newsletter on our website, we will process personal information such as your email address and your name based on the permission you have granted. We exclusively use these data to send you information about us and our products. For our newsletter, we use the services of a provider located in the European Union. With regard to the processing of personal data we have contractually obligated this provider to comply with the requirements of European data protection law.
The newsletter service offers ways to perform statistical analyses of data usage. This includes information about whether an email has been delivered to the recipient or whether the server rejected it.

You can revoke your consent to the setting of cookies at any time. Please note that the lawfulness of the processing of your personal data remains unaffected until the time of revocation. If you do not give your consent, the newsletter registration form will not be displayed.
The other data categories mentioned are of a technical nature and do not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your person.
The data is stored until you revoke your consent (cookie) or until the transmitted IP address is automatically deleted after seven days. The (other) technical connection data mentioned above is anonymous and may therefore be processed.
The transfer of data is based on the conclusion of a data processing agreement with GetResponse within the European Union.

- You have given us your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a GDPR),

Google Ads
We use Google Ads Conversion, a service provided by Google (Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4., Ireland), to draw attention to our offers on external websites with the help of “Google Ads”. We can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are, are enabled show you advertising that is of interest to you and make our website more interesting for you.
Google Ads are delivered by Google via so-called “Ad Servers”. For this purpose, we use ad server cookies, which measure certain values, e.g. display of ads or clicks. If you access our website via Google Ads, a cookie is stored by Google Ads on your end device. These cookies are usually valid for 30 days. With the help of these cookies, Google can recognize your internet browser. If a user has visited certain pages of the website of Ads customers within the last 30 days, Google and the customers can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Ads customer receives a different cookie in the process.
We ourselves do not collect or process any personal data by way of Google Ads. We only receive statistical evaluations from Google and can thus better assess the effect and efficiency of our advertising. A reference to you as a person is not possible for us. We would like to link the data with Google Analytics and the results generated there and evaluate them together.
Your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with Google’s server. We have no influence on the scope and further processing of your data. You can obtain information on this at http://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy and https://services.google.com/sitestats/de.html. To our knowledge, Google receives the information that you have called up our website or clicked on one of our advertisements. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can also assign the visit to your account. In addition, Google may receive knowledge of your IP address.
If you would like to prevent tracking, you can do this, for example, in the cookie settings (you may then not be able to use all the functions of the offer) or by setting your browser software accordingly or installing the plug-in provided by Google at https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin.
Legal basis: Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR
Storage period: Up to 180 days
YouTube
Videos from the video platform YouTube (YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Avenue, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA) are embedded on our website. YouTube is represented by Google Ireland Limited Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4.
We use a “two-click solution”. This means that when you visit the corresponding sub-page of our website, no personal data is passed on to the provider of the service. However, we offer you the option of activating the service of the provider via a button, which results in a direct data transfer. Only when you activate the service does the provider receive the information that you have accessed the corresponding sub-page of our website. This is done via a cookie, which is only set with your express consent in accordance with § 25 para. 1 TTDPA.
By activating the service, your personal data is transmitted to the respective provider, stored there and further processed. We have no influence on this processing. We would like to point out that your personal data will be processed by the provider in the USA for additional purposes (including analysis and marketing) beyond the provision of the service.
The level of data protection in the USA does not generally correspond to the level of protection in the EU, as, among other things, government authorities may have far-reaching access options and enforcement of your data subject rights cannot be guaranteed. Although the providers have made partial contractual commitments to us to ensure a level of protection comparable to that in the EU, it cannot be ruled out that this will not be achieved in individual cases due to conflicting requirements of US law.
Information about what data is processed by Google and for what purposes are used, you can find in the privacy policy of Google:
https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de#infocollect
We have no influence on the nature and extent of the data collected by Google the data processed, the way in which they are processed and used, or the disclosure of this data to third parties. Nor do we have any effective means of control in this respect.
Further information on data protection and the cookies used can be found on the Internet at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.There you will also find further information on your rights and setting options to protect your privacy.

Video surveillance on the company premises
Passers-by can be filmed by cameras as long as they are right by the gate and the billboard that leads to the main entrance, and when parking in the public car park on the premises. However, the “public areas of the public parking lot” are not covered by the cameras or are blackened except for the edge directly adjacent to the Trioptics property. The camera on the gate is adjusted to capture only the area directly in front of the gate and the billboard to prevent vandalism.

Your rights in relation to your data
The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) gives you the following rights in relation to your data:
- According to Art. 15 GDPR, you may request information about any data we process about you.
- If we have incorrect or incomplete data about you, you can demand rectification (Art. 16 GDPR).
- You can also request the erasure of your data (Art. 17 GDPR). However, there may be cases in which we are not allowed or not required to erase your data despite your request. If you request us to erase this data, we will check whether such reasons exist. If not, we will erase your data.
- In some cases, an alternative to deleting your data is to restrict the processing of your personal information (Art. 18 GDPR). Here, too, we request that you inform us how you would like to proceed. We will then review the applicable legal provisions and find a way that balances your and our interests.
- You have the right to receive personal data concerning you in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format (Art. 20 GDPR).
- You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing – including profiling – except in cases mentioned in Art. 22 GDPR. Decision-making based exclusively on automated processing – including profiling – does not take place.
- If you believe that we are not complying with the data protection requirements for the processing of your data on these websites, you can complain to a data protection supervisory authority. You can find a list of all European data protection supervisory authorities here: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html
- You may withdraw your consent to the processing of your personal data at any time with future effect. However, the lawfulness of the processing carried out until the withdrawal is not affected by this (Art. 7 para. 3 p. 1 DSGVO).
LinkedIn Ads, LinkedIn Analytics and LinkedIn Marketing Solutions
We use the services of LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland (“LinkedIn”). As part of these services, LinkedIn collects and stores user data in pseudonymous profiles to enable statistical analysis of website usage and the reach of advertisements as well as interest-based advertising on our website and on LinkedIn and LinkedIn partner sites. If you are a user of LinkedIn, LinkedIn may also merge the data with your user account. With LinkedIn Marketing Solutions, LinkedIn transmits personal data to us using a form (so-called LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms). Lead Gen Forms are forms already pre-filled with LinkedIn profile data that allow members to submit your data, which is publicly visible on the network, with just a few clicks. Requests generated through the forms are passed directly to a lead management or CRM tool, e.g. HubSpot. We have no influence on the data processing by LinkedIn. LinkedIn transmits data to the USA for further proocessing. The transfer is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU. LinkedIn also uses cookies to collect data.
Legal basis of processing for marketing purposes:
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.
Legal basis for statistical analyses:
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Through the analytics function, we improve the reach and presentation of our business and offerings. This serves our business purposes.
A revocation can be made at any time via this Link .
You can also disable cookies and the associated data collection via the following websites:
- www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls
- optout.aboutads.info
- www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/
The deactivation is usually stored by means of a cookie. It must therefore be renewed when you delete the cookies. In addition, the deactivation must be made separately for each browser or device.
Data storage period:
After 90 days, the data is automatically deleted by LinkedIn.
You can find more information on data protection in the context of the LinkedIn services at www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.
HubSpot
We use HubSpot for marketing activities, operated by HubSpot Germany GmbH, Am Postbahnhof 17, 10243 Berlin (“HubSpot”). We use HubSpot’s integrated software solution for our own marketing, lead generation, qualification and management process. This includes email marketing, which governs sending automated, individualized E-mails, social media publishing and reporting, contact management such as user segmentation and CRM, landing pages and contact forms. Our contact forms allow you to learn more about our company, download content, and provide us with your contact information. This information, as well as our website content, is stored on HubSpot servers in Europe. We use this information to contact you.
We measure performance of email content that we send to you through HubSpot to identify your reading habits based on email opens, open times, and links clicked, so that we can create and send you interest-based and useful content.
HubSpot uses cookies. HubSpot collects and stores usage data in pseudonymous profiles to enable interest-based advertising. In addition, HubSpot evaluates information collected on our behalf so that we can generate reports about the visit and the pages visited.
We use HubSpot to optimize advertising and customer targeting. Only with your consent, we can also merge the pseudonymous data with personal information from your CRM profile in order to address you optimally and provide you with interest-based support.
Your data is stored by HubSpot in Europe. However, HubSpot uses sub-processors in the USA, including HubSpot Inc. It cannot be ruled out that data is transferred to the USA. The USA does not offer a level of data protection comparable to the European Union. In certain cases, U.S. companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities without you as the data subject being able to take legal action against this. It can therefore not be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. intelligence services) process, evaluate and permanently store your data located on US servers for monitoring purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities. However, HubSpot Inc. is contractually obligated with the EU standard contractual clauses to ensure data protection-compliant processing.
Legal basis:
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.
A revocation of a given consent can be made via the unsubscribe link in every email. Alternatively, you can contact us directly. Unfortunately, a separate revocation of the performance measurement is not possible, in which case the consent to receive emails must be revoked in its entirety. You can deactivate the storage of data by HubSpot in cookies and the associated recording of your user behavior by preventing the storage of cookies accordingly at any time through your browser settings and/or deleting existing cookies.
Data storage period:
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. We process your contact data that you have provided to us via a lead gen form, contact form on our website or a special landing page until you revoke it, unless there is another legal basis for retention after your revocation.
You can find more information about data processing by HubSpot on HubSpot-Datenschutzrichtlinie.
Right to object
We have repeatedly mentioned our “legitimate interests” in this data privacy statement that allow us to use your data on this website. If we process your data based on our “legitimate interest,” you can object to this processing of your data (article 21 GDPR). You must, however, provide reasons for your objection that “are due to your special personal situation,” according to the regulation mentioned.
If you would like to exercise your right to object, sending an email to info(at)trioptics.com/us is sufficient. We will then review your request and contact you with the result.
