Privacy Policy

We are very pleased about your interest in our association. Data protection has a particularly high priority for the management of Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V.. Use of the websites of Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. is generally possible without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wants to use special services of our organization via our website, the processing of personal data may become necessary. If the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as name, address, email address, or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V.. With this privacy policy, our association aims to inform the public about the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. In addition, data subjects are informed of their rights under this privacy policy.

Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. However, internet-based data transmissions can have security gaps, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.

​

1. Definitions

The privacy policy of Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the GDPR. Our privacy policy should be easy to read and understand for the public, as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terms used in advance:

We use the following terms in this privacy policy:

a) Personal data
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ("data subject"). An identifiable person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, identification number, location data, online identifier, or one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.

b) Data subject
A data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the data controller.

c) Processing
Processing means any operation or set of operations performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation, alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination, or otherwise making available, alignment, restriction, erasure, or destruction.

d) Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting its processing in the future.

e) Profiling
Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data where that data is used to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning job performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location, or movements.

f) Pseudonymization
Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures ensuring that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

g) Controller or data controller
The controller is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body that, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data.

h) Processor
A processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

i) Recipient
A recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or another body to whom personal data is disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities that may receive personal data in the context of a specific investigation shall not be regarded as recipients.

j) Third party
A third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body other than the data subject, controller, processor, and persons authorized to process personal data under the direct authority of the controller or processor.

k) Consent
Consent is any freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which they, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signify agreement to the processing of personal data relating to them.

3. Cookies

The Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are placed and stored on a computer system via an internet browser.

Numerous websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier for the cookie. It consists of a character string that allows websites and servers to associate the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.

By using cookies, Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without cookies.

Cookies can be used to optimize the information and offers on our website for the benefit of the user. As already mentioned, cookies enable us to recognize the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For example, the user of a website that uses cookies does not have to enter their login details each time they visit the website because this is done by the website and the cookie stored on the user's computer system. Another example is the cookie for a shopping cart in an online shop. The online shop remembers the items a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.

The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by making the appropriate settings in the internet browser used, and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via an internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully available.

​

4. Collection of general data and information

The website of Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. collects a series of general data and information each time the website is accessed by a data subject or an automated system. This general data and information is stored in the server's log files. The following may be collected: (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) other similar data and information used to avert threats in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using this general data and information, Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is required to (1) correctly deliver the content of our website, (2) optimize the content of our website and its advertising, (3) ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyberattack. This anonymously collected data and information is therefore evaluated by Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. both statistically and with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data in the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

5. Routine deletion and blocking of personal data

The controller shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the storage purpose, or as far as this is provided for by the European legislator or other legislator in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.

If the storage purpose no longer applies, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or other competent legislator expires, the personal data shall be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with legal requirements.

​

The personal data were collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which they are no longer necessary.

The data subject withdraws consent on which the processing is based according to Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Article 9 (2) (a) GDPR, and there is no other legal ground for the processing.

The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21 (1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21 (2) GDPR.

The personal data were processed unlawfully.

The erasure of the personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.

The personal data were collected in relation to the provision of information society services pursuant to Article 8 (1) GDPR.

If one of the above reasons applies, and a data subject wishes to request the erasure of personal data stored by Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V., they may contact our data protection officer or another employee of the controller at any time. The data protection officer of Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. or another employee will ensure that the erasure request is complied with immediately.

The data protection officer of Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. or another employee will arrange the necessary measures in individual cases.

e) Right to restriction of processing

Any data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to request the controller to restrict processing if one of the following conditions applies:

​

The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.

The processing is unlawful; the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and instead requests the restriction of their use.

The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by the data subject to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims.

The data subject has objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR, pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the data subject.

If one of the aforementioned conditions is met and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V., they may contact our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the controller at any time. The data protection officer of Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. or another employee will arrange for the restriction of processing.

f) Right to data portability

Every data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which was provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. He or she shall also have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data was provided, provided that the processing is based on consent pursuant to point (a) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR or point (a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR or on a contract pursuant to point (b) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Furthermore, in exercising their right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 (1) GDPR, the data subject has the right to have personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and provided that doing so does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. will no longer process the personal data in the event of an objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

If Kindertagespflege Erftstadt e.V. processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for such marketing purposes.

Furthermore, in the context of the use of information society services, the data subject is free to exercise his or her right of objection by means of automated procedures using technical specifications, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC.

​

h) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

Every data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her, unless the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is based on the data subject's explicit consent.

​

7. Data protection provisions regarding the application and use of Facebook

The controller has integrated components of the Facebook company on this website. Facebook is a social network.

A social network is a social meeting place operated on the Internet, an online community that generally enables users to communicate with each other and interact in virtual space. A social network can serve as a platform for exchanging opinions and experiences or enable the internet community to provide personal or company-related information. Facebook enables users of the social network, among other things, to create private profiles, upload photos, and network via friend requests.

The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. If a data subject lives outside the USA or Canada, the controller responsible for processing personal data is Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

Each time one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-in) has been integrated, is accessed, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Facebook component to download a display of the corresponding Facebook component from Facebook. An overview of all Facebook plug-ins can be found at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=de_DE. As part of this technical process, Facebook receives information about which specific subpage of our website was visited by the data subject.

If the data subject is logged in to Facebook at the same time, Facebook recognizes which specific subpage of our website the data subject visits with each visit to our website by the data subject and for the entire duration of their stay on our website. This information is collected by the Facebook component and assigned by Facebook to the respective Facebook account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on one of the Facebook buttons integrated on our website, for example the "Like" button, or if the data subject makes a comment, Facebook assigns this information to the data subject's personal Facebook user account and stores the personal data.

Facebook always receives information via the Facebook component that the data subject has visited our website, provided that the data subject is logged in to Facebook at the same time as accessing our website; this occurs regardless of whether the data subject clicks on the Facebook component or not. If the data subject does not want this information to be transmitted to Facebook, they can prevent it by logging out of their Facebook account before accessing our website.

The data policy published by Facebook, which can be accessed at https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/, provides information about the collection, processing, and use of personal data by Facebook. It also explains which settings options Facebook offers to protect the privacy of the data subject. In addition, various applications are available that allow you to prevent data transmission to Facebook, such as the Facebook Blocker from Webgraph, which can be obtained at http://webgraph.com/resources/facebookblocker/. Such applications can be used by the data subject to prevent data transmission to Facebook.

​

8. Data protection provisions regarding the application and use of Google Analytics (with anonymization function)

The controller has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymization function) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics is the collection, gathering, and evaluation of data about the behavior of website visitors. A web analytics service collects, among other things, data about the website from which a data subject came to a website (so-called referrers), which subpages of the website were accessed, or how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. Web analytics is primarily used to optimize a website and for the cost-benefit analysis of online advertising.

The operator of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

The controller uses the suffix "_gat._anonymizeIp" for web analytics via Google Analytics. By means of this add-on, the IP address of the data subject's internet connection is shortened and anonymized by Google if our website is accessed from a member state of the European Union or from another state party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze visitor flows on our website. Google uses the data and information obtained, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us that show the activities on our websites, and to provide other services related to the use of our website.

Google Analytics sets a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. Cookies have already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. Each time one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and into which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, is accessed, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Google Analytics component to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical process, Google receives information about personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which Google uses, among other things, to trace the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently enable commission settlements.

Cookies are used to store personal information, such as the access time, the location from which access was made, and the frequency of visits to our website by the data subject. With each visit to our website, this personal data, including the IP address of the internet connection used by the data subject, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may transfer this personal data collected via the technical process to third parties.

As already described above, the data subject can prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by making the appropriate settings in the Internet browser used, thereby permanently denying the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from placing a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. Furthermore, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.

​

 

Furthermore, the data subject has the option of objecting to the collection of data generated by Google Analytics relating to the use of this website and the processing of this data by Google and preventing such collection. To do so, the data subject must download and install a browser add-on available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. This browser add-on informs Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data and information relating to website visits may be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered an objection by Google. If the information technology system of the data subject is subsequently deleted, formatted, or reinstalled, the data subject must reinstall the browser add-on to deactivate Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the data subject or another person under their control, the option of reinstalling or reactivating the browser add-on is available.

Further information and Google's applicable privacy policy can be found at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html. Google Analytics is explained in more detail at this link: https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/analytics/.

​

9. Data protection provisions regarding the application and use of Google AdWords

The controller has integrated Google AdWords on this website. Google AdWords is an internet advertising service that allows advertisers to place ads both in Google's search engine results and in the Google advertising network. Google AdWords enables an advertiser to pre-define specific keywords, which will display an ad in Google's search engine results only when the user retrieves a keyword-relevant search result using the search engine. In the Google advertising network, ads are distributed on topic-relevant websites using an automatic algorithm and taking into account the previously defined keywords.

The operator of the Google AdWords services is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

The purpose of Google AdWords is to promote our website by displaying interest-relevant advertising on the websites of third-party companies and in the search engine results of the Google search engine, as well as by displaying third-party advertising on our website.

If a data subject reaches our website via a Google ad, a so-called conversion cookie is stored on the information technology system of the data subject by Google. Cookies have been explained above. A conversion cookie expires after 30 days and is not used to identify the data subject. The conversion cookie, provided it has not yet expired, is used to track whether certain subpages, such as the shopping cart of an online shop system, were accessed on our website. The conversion cookie allows both us and Google to track whether a data subject who reached our website via an AdWords ad generated sales, i.e., completed or canceled a purchase.

The data and information collected through the use of the conversion cookie are used by Google to compile visit statistics for our website. We, in turn, use these visit statistics to determine the total number of users who were referred to us via AdWords ads, i.e., to determine the success or failure of the respective AdWords ad and to optimize our AdWords ads for the future. Neither our company nor other Google AdWords advertisers receive information from Google that could be used to identify the data subject.

The conversion cookie is used to store personal information, such as the websites visited by the data subject. Therefore, with each visit to our website, personal data, including the IP address of the internet connection used by the data subject, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may transfer this personal data collected through this technical process to third parties.

​

The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies through our website, as already described above, at any time by means of a corresponding setting in the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting in the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a conversion cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. Furthermore, a cookie already set by Google AdWords can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.

Furthermore, the data subject has the option of objecting to interest-based advertising by Google. To do so, the data subject must visit www.google.de/settings/ads from each of the Internet browsers they use and make the desired settings there.

Further information and Google's applicable privacy policy can be found at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

10. Data protection provisions regarding the application and use of Instagram

The controller has integrated components of the Instagram service on this website. Instagram is a service that can be classified as an audiovisual platform and enables users to share photos and videos and also to further disseminate such data on other social networks.

The operating company of the Instagram services is Instagram LLC, 1 Hacker Way, Building 14, First Floor, Menlo Park, CA, USA.

With each visit to one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which an Instagram component (Insta button) has been integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Instagram component to download a display of the corresponding Instagram component. As part of this technical process, Instagram receives information about which specific subpage of our website is visited by the data subject.

If the data subject is logged in to Instagram at the same time, Instagram recognizes which specific subpage the data subject visits with each visit to our website by the data subject and for the entire duration of their stay on our website. This information is collected by the Instagram component and assigned by Instagram to the respective Instagram account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on one of the Instagram buttons integrated on our website, the data and information transmitted with it are assigned to the personal Instagram user account of the data subject and stored and processed by Instagram.

Instagram always receives information via the Instagram component that the data subject has visited our website whenever the data subject is logged in to Instagram at the same time as accessing our website; this occurs regardless of whether the data subject clicks on the Instagram component or not. If the data subject does not want this information to be transmitted to Instagram, they can prevent this by logging out of their Instagram account before accessing our website.

Further information and Instagram’s applicable privacy policy can be found at https://help.instagram.com/155833707900388 and https://www.instagram.com/about/legal/privacy/.
