Data protection - an important concern for you and for MED TRUST
During your visit to our homepage it is very important to us to protect your personal information when collecting, processing, and using it. Your information is protected according to legal provisions. Below you will find information about the data which is recorded during your visit to our homepage and how this information is used:
1. Collecting and Processing Data
1.1. We make a record of every visit to our website and of every time a file on the website is accessed. The details shared by your internet provided are collected by our own provider (i.e. the data centre in which the website is hosted): incl. the name of the website, date/time of visit, amount of data transferred, the IP address assigned to you, the HTTP-status code, information about the browser type and your operating system, as well as part of the so-called “referrer” (the source page which referred you to the current website or file). An analysis is carried out when the web-host automatically initiates it and this is only done in order to gather statistics, whereby users remain anonymous. Moreover, the collection of this data is required in order to investigate (potential) misuse and for legal assurance.
Google Analytics
This information is anonymised also for statistical purposes using Google Analytics and recorded and analysed. The anonymisation is done by removing the last 8 bits of the IP address, making it no longer possible to clearly allocate the data collected to a certain IP address.
Google Analytics uses cookies which are text files that are saved on your computer and which enable an analysis of your use of this website. The information generated by cookies pertaining to your use of this website is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
You can block the installation of cookies by changing a setting in your browser software. However, we would like to point out that if you do so, you might not be able to take full advantage of the features of this website. By using this website, you agree to Google processing the data collected about you in the manner and purpose described above.
You can prevent data from being transmitted to Google that was created as a result of cookies and that was generated from your use of the website (incl. your IP address) as well the processing thereof by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin which is available at this link: Browser-Add-on zur Deaktivierung von Google Analytics
Instead of a browser add-on or when using browsers on mobile devices, please click on the following link in order to prevent Google Analytics from collecting data from this website in the future (the opt-out only works in the browser and only for this domain). This will place an opt-out cookie on your mobile device. If you delete your cookies in this browser, you will have to re-click on the link.
More information about Google Analytics is available hier.
1.2. Your personal data will be further collected if you
- register as a user on the MED TRUST website,
- send MED TRUST contact requests via the form of the MED TRUST website,
- use the wish list or the shopping cart of the MED TRUST website or
- place orders via the web shop of MED TRUST.
The information is saved exclusively by MED TRUST and transmitted if needed because it is required to fulfil the contract with you or because you consented to MED TRUST processing and transmitting your personal information. If you do not provide personal information, the enhanced features of the MED TRUST website, as described below, might be unavailable or only available to a limited extent.
Google Custom Search
This website uses the central search service “Google Custom Search” (“Google user-defined search”), by Google Inc. (“Google”), 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA. The integrated search service enables a full-text search of all content on our website. Access to this search function is possible via the search box in the header on each webpage. By entering the search term into the search box and pressing enter or the search icon (magnifying glass symbol), this will activate the search function and display the relevant results, which are provided using a Google plugin. Use of the search function provided by Google involves a dynamic transfer of data to the search result page by Google. Normally, no data is transferred to Google when our webpages, which contain the integrated Google Custom Search, are accessed. Data is only transferred to Google if you activate the search box, conduct a full-text search and once the search results are displayed. By using the search function on the search results page, data about the relevant user is also transferred to Google. By conducting a full-text search and accessing a page through the search results, you consent to the use of the Google search service and thereby also to the transfer of data to the Google service. Your IP address is always required in order to display content, as without your IP address, Google would not be able to send the content to your browser. If you are simultaneously logged in to Google, Google is immediately able to assign the information to your user profile. You should log out in order to prevent your profile information from being collected. For more data protection information from Google, please visit https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de
