Data protection information

Website content
The content on this website is intended solely for information purposes and is a service provided by CHG-MERIDIAN AG. The content of our pages was created with the greatest possible care. We do not guarantee that the content, services and information on this website are up to date, accurate or complete. We accept no liability for any material or immaterial damage caused by the use of incorrect or incomplete information. This does not apply to damage caused intentionally or by gross negligence or in cases where liability is prescribed by law. We reserve the right to amend or update content without giving any notice. As a service provider pursuant to Section 7, Paragraph 1 German Teleservices Act (TMG), we are responsible for our own content on these pages according to general laws. However, according to Sections 8 to 10 German Teleservices Act (TMG), as a service provider we are not obligated to monitor transmitted or saved external information or to search for circumstances indicating illegal activity. Obligations to remove or block the usage of information pursuant to general laws remain unaffected. However, liability with respect to this is first possible as of the point in time of acquiring knowledge of a concrete violation of law. We will remove this content immediately upon becoming aware of corresponding violations of law.

Anonymous data collection
If you access our website, our web servers automatically record data of a general nature. This includes the type of web browser, the operating system used and the website from which you visit us, the pages you visit at our site and the date and duration of the visit. This exclusively involves information that does not allow for any connections back to your person. IP addresses are only saved in abbreviated form, so that here too a connection back to the individual visitor is not possible. We pledge to never merge any collected IP addresses with other databases, for example, to create a link to a person. Beyond this, we only evaluate this data for statistical purposes and only in anonymous form.

Collection and processing of personal data
Personal data is only collected if you supply it voluntarily, for example to execute an order, conduct a survey or register for personalised services. In this case you will be told why the data is to be processed and, if necessary, asked for your consent for the data to be stored.

Use and forwarding of collected data
Unless you have given your consent, personal data collected on our website is only used to execute orders or process your enquiries and, for this purpose, may be passed on to the Group company responsible where necessary. Otherwise, your data will only be shared within the CHG-MERIDIAN Group and stored in a centrally managed database of current and prospective clients run by CHG-MERIDIAN AG if you have given your consent. This data may only be used for advertising and market and opinion research purposes and by the CHG-MERIDIAN Group. You may revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. Your data will not be sold, rented out or made available to third parties in any other way. Personal data will only be made available to government agencies or authorities within the scope of mandatory national legislation. Our employees, agencies and dealers are obliged to treat all data as strictly confidential. However, we do refer to the fact that data transmission in the Internet can be subject to security gaps. Complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.

Cookies
Some pages of our website use cookies. A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your hard drive. Cookies do not damage your computer and contain no viruses. The cookies on our website do not collect any personal data. We use the information contained in cookies to make it easier for you to use our website and to customise it to your needs.
You can, of course, view our website without using cookies. If you do not want cookies to be stored on your computer, you can deactivate the relevant option in your browser's system settings. You can delete stored cookies in your browser's system settings at any time. If you do not accept cookies, however, this may impair some of the functions on our website.

Security
CHG-MERIDIAN AG takes technical and organisational security precautions to protect your data that we manage against accidental or deliberate manipulation, loss and destruction and to ensure that it is not accessible to unauthorised persons. Our security precautions are constantly being improved to keep pace with technological advances.

Links to third-party websites
The website of CHG-MERIDIAN AG contains links to websites run by third parties. We can therefore also assume no responsibility for this external content. The respective provider or operator of the site is always responsible for the content of the linked pages. The linked pages were checked for potential violations of law at the point in time at which they were linked. Unlawful content was not found at the point in time of the linking. However, permanent monitoring of the linked pages is not reasonable without concrete indications of a violation of law. In the event we should become aware of violations of law, we will immediately remove such links.

Trademark rights and copyright
All trademarks mentioned on this website that may be protected by third parties are governed without restriction by the regulations of the prevailing trademark legislation and by the possessive rights of the registered owners. In particular, the fact that they are mentioned on this website does not mean that trademarks are not protected by third-party rights. The copyright on published items internally produced by CHG-MERIDIAN AG remains the exclusive property of CHG-MERIDIAN AG. This item may not be reproduced or copied either fully or in part without the written consent of CHG-MERIDIAN AG.

Security when sending messages to CHG-MERIDIAN AG
We refer to the fact that the transmission of data in the Internet can involve security gaps. Complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible. If you want to send an email from your private email account to CHG-MERIDIAN AG, you should remember that this data will not be encrypted and that, consequently, the confidentiality and integrity of this email's content cannot be guaranteed.
