Like every operator of a website, KUBA GmbH processes data. The following statement provides an overview of the types of data collected, how they are used and disclosed, what security measures KUBA GmbH takes to protect your data, and how you can exercise your rights.
KUBA GmbH collects and processes data for the operation of the website, including information about products from KUBA GmbH. KUBA GmbH collects, processes, and uses both personal and non-personal data.
Personal data includes information such as your real name, address, postal address, telephone number, email address, and full IP address. Information that does not allow the identification of a user's true identity, such as the number of users of a website, the duration of visits to a website, links used on kubacompany.com, are not considered personal data.
On kubacompany.com, we use web analytics services, particularly Google Analytics, which also uses cookies.
The information generated by the cookie about your use of our site is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there when Google Analytics, a service of Google Inc. ("Google"), is used. However, due to IP anonymization on this website using the "anonymize()" extension, your IP address will be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On our behalf, Google will use the information generated to evaluate your use of our website, compile reports on website activity for kubacompany.com, and provide other services related to website usage and internet usage to us. Google will not associate your IP address collected by Google Analytics with any other data held by Google. Google may transfer the information collected by Google Analytics to third parties if required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google. You can prevent the storage of these cookies by adjusting the settings of your browser as mentioned above.
You can also prevent Google from collecting and processing data generated by the cookie related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
By using our site, you consent to the processing of data about you by Webtrends and Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above.
We use social plugins from the network facebook.com, namely the "Like" button and the "Share" button. These plugins are provided by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA and transmit data to Facebook. They are marked with the Facebook "f". When you activate these plugins, your browser establishes a direct connection to Facebook's servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly to your browser. The plugin is part of Facebook and is only displayed on our website. Any interaction through the plugin occurs on "facebook.com" and not on our website. We have no influence on the content of the plugin. At the same time, Facebook sets one or more cookies in your browser.
By activating the plugin and the cookies, Facebook receives data even if you have not clicked the plugin yourself and do not have a Facebook account. According to Facebook, this data includes the visited website, date, time, browser type and version, operating system and version, and, to our knowledge, IP address and Facebook cookies already stored in your browser. Facebook uses this data to identify errors in its own system, improve its products, adapt to user behavior, control, place and personalize advertising, localize, record the way websites with Facebook content are used, and for market research purposes.
If you are logged into Facebook when you activate the plugins, your Facebook login ID will also be transmitted to Facebook. This allows Facebook to directly associate your visit to our website with your Facebook account. In this case, Facebook can identify you by your Facebook name and your private data from your Facebook account. If you interact with the Facebook plugin, such as clicking the like button, this information is transmitted to Facebook's servers and, depending on your Facebook account settings, may be published on Facebook and shown to your friends. To prevent this, you must log out of your Facebook account before activating the Facebook plugins and delete all Facebook cookies after visiting websites with Facebook plugins. According to Facebook's own statements, Facebook stores all this data for up to 90 days. After that, Facebook anonymizes this data and uses it only in anonymized and summarized form, such as for advertising improvements.
Facebook's plugins are configured so that we do not receive any of the information transmitted with the plugin or Facebook cookies. We can only determine whether you have clicked the plugin and shared our content with others.
For more details on how Facebook handles your data, please refer to Facebook's privacy policy at http://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.
We use social plugins from the Twitter short message service, namely the "Share" button. This plugin is provided by Twitter, Inc., 1355 Market St., Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA, and transmits data to Twitter. The plugin is marked with the Twitter logo.
By activating this plugin, your browser establishes a connection to Twitter's servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly to your browser. We have no influence on the content of the plugin. At the same time, Twitter sets one or more cookies in your browser. By activating the plugin and the cookies, Twitter receives data, even if you have not clicked the plugin yourself and even if you do not have a Twitter account. According to Twitter, this data includes the visited website, the previously visited page, date, time, browser type, operating system, your IP address, search terms used, your location, your mobile provider, your mobile device, your application ID, and Twitter cookies already stored in the browser (so-called Twitter widget data). Twitter can trace which other websites with Twitter content (including these plugins) you have visited. Twitter uses this data, in particular, for its "Tailored Suggestions" service, which recommends certain tweets to you, for system and product improvement, to adapt to user behavior, localization, to record the manner in which websites with Twitter content are used, and for market research purposes.
If you are logged into Twitter when you activate the plugins, Twitter can establish a connection to your Twitter account. To avoid this, you must log out of your Twitter account before activating the Twitter plugins and delete all Twitter cookies after visiting websites with Twitter plugins.
According to Twitter's own statements, Twitter starts deleting the widget data after 10 days, which can take up to 7 days. After that, Twitter only uses aggregated, anonymized data, such as how often a page with Twitter content was accessed.
The Twitter plugins are configured so that we do not receive any of the information transmitted with the plugin or Twitter cookies. We can only determine whether you have clicked the plugin and shared our content with others.
