Data protection when visiting MLP web pages

Calling up the website

Each time a web page is called up, server log files (IP address, name of the file called up, date and time of access, data volume transmitted, status of the access (successful / not successful), as well as the browser type and operating system of the terminal and the URL of the page previously called up (so-called “referrer URL”)) are processed. This processing is essential to ensure that the connection is established correctly and our web pages can be handled smoothly. The processing is performed on the basis of Art. 6 (1b) of the GDPR. Collection of the data to make the website available and storage of the data in log files is essential for operation of the website. Users do not have any opt-out options in this regard.

The data is also processed for system security and stability analyses, as well as for clarification of any legal infringements when there is a specific reason for this (for example to clarify acts of abuse or fraud) based on an overriding legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality, as well as clarification in line with Art. 6 (1f) of the GDPR. Data whose continued storage is necessary for evidentiary purposes remains stored until final clarification of the respective incident.

Website analysis with Google Analytics

From each visitor to the website, information is collected regarding the time, duration and scope of pages used in addition to data regarding the accessing device, such as operating system, region and browser type. This data is collected in pseudonymised form and used to generate anonymous information regarding the manner of web-site use, continually improve the website and specifically tailor content to the respective user. Accordingly, processing is effected on the basis of an overriding legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) f GDPR. Such processing is carried out using Google Analytics and Google Universal Analytics with the aid of cookies. To this end, data is forwarded to a Google analysis server in the USA using an anonymised IP address. You can object to the processing of this data by Google by installing the following plug-in for the browser: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de or by deleting the corresponding cookies.

We use the Usercentrics Consent Management Platform to manage your consents and objections. You can find detailed information about the cookie bar and the tools used for analysis and marketing purposes on this website HERE. You can also review your choices at any time HERE and change them for the future.

Data processing when using various services

Various services and interactions are offered via the website. However, data is generally only processed when you are using the respective service. The scope and purposes for which data is processed in such cases is described separately for each service in the following.

Contact Form

If you use a contact form to get in touch, MLP processes your title, first name, last name, contact details (telephone number and e-mail address), the content of the message, as well as the client number (when provided on a voluntary basis). The data needs to be processed in order to provide the service requested. The contact details are processed for enquiries and communication regarding the service requested. If you are assigned to a consultant, the data is forwarded to that consultant (acting as a self-employed commercial agent) and his staff for processing. The processing is based on Art. 6 (1b) of the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). If you are already in contact with MLP (client, previous consultation meeting), the enquiry will be deleted 12 years after termination of the client relationship and in all other cases after 3 years.

Newsletter

When subscribing to an MLP newsletter, the master and contact data entered by you is used exclusively for the purpose of providing the respective newsletter service. The data entered in the registration screen is collected within the context of the registration. Only your e-mail address is required in order to receive the respective newsletter. All other entries are made on a voluntary basis. In the event that you voluntarily provide us with your telephone number when subscribing to our newsletter, you also give consent for MLP to contact you via telephone as a way of informing you about offers and services when you submit the form.

You can revoke your consent in line with Art. 6 (1a) of the GDPR for storing your data and using it to send out newsletters, as well as your consent to be contacted by MLP by telephone at any time for the future. A corresponding link is included with each newsletter e-mail. You can also revoke your consent at any time by sending a corresponding e-mail to datenschutz@mlp.de. Your data remains stored at MLP until you revoke your consent.

Data transfer

Your visit to the websites of the MLP Group is protected from unauthorised access using the SSL (secure socket layer) transport protocol. This also applies to cases in which services are called up while using the MLP internet offer which prompt the user to enter personal data. This data is always encrypted prior to transmission. The SSL (secure socket layer) transport protocol is currently considered secure and complies with the recommendations of the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI).

Protective measures

MLP has implemented technical and organisational measures to ensure compliance with both European and German data protection legislation. All persons that collect, process or use data at MLP are obligated to observe confidentiality. This obligation also continues to apply if the employment relationship with MLP of any such persons is terminated. In addition to this, banking secrecy and special secrecy obligations are applied in certain areas.

Protection via participation

As a user, you are obliged to treat all personal access data that has been made available to you so that you can take up individual offers from MLP as confidential and not make any of this data available to third parties. MLP does not accept any liability for misuse of passwords, to the extent that we cannot be held responsible for such misuse.
