Data protection information pursuant to Articles 13 and 14 of the GDPR (download)
Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
With the following information, we would like to give you, as the “data subject,” an overview of how we process your personal data and your rights under data protection laws. It is generally possible to use our website without entering any personal data. However, if you wish to use specific services offered by our company via our website, it may be necessary to process personal data. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we will generally obtain your consent.
The processing of personal data, such as your name, address, or email address, is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in compliance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to “ATTB Antennentechnik Bad Blankenburg GmbH.” With this privacy policy, we would like to inform you about the scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process.
As the controller, we have implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible for the personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, you are free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone or mail.
You too can take simple and easy-to-implement measures to protect yourself against unauthorized access to your data by third parties. We would therefore like to take this opportunity to give you some tips on how to handle your data securely:
- Protect your account (login, user or customer account) and your IT system (computer, laptop, tablet, or mobile device) with secure passwords.
- Only you should have access to the passwords.Ensure that you only ever use your passwords for one account (login, user or customer account).
- Do not use the same password for different websites, applications, or online services.
- When using publicly accessible IT systems or systems shared with other people, it is particularly important to log out after each time you log in to a website, application, or online service.
Passwords should consist of at least 12 characters and be chosen so that they cannot be easily guessed. Therefore, they should not contain common words from everyday life, your own name or the names of relatives, but should include upper and lower case letters, numbers, and special characters.
2. Controller
The controller within the meaning of the GDPR is:
ATTB Antennentechnik Bad Blankenburg GmbH
Gewerbegebiet 2, 07407 Rudolstadt, Germany
Representative of the controller: Michael Märte
3. Data Protection Officer

You can contact our Data Protection Officer directly at any time with any questions or suggestions regarding data protection.
4. Definitions
The privacy policy is based on the terminology used by the European legislator when adopting the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our privacy policy is intended to be easy to read and understand for the general public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terminology used in advance.
We use the following terms in this privacy policy, among others:
1. Personal data
Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. A natural person is considered identifiable if they can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by association with an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more special characteristics that express the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.
2. Data subject
A data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller (our company).
3. Processing
Processing means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, distribution, or any other form of provision, comparison or linking, restriction, erasure, or destruction.
4. Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting its future processing.
5. Profiling
Profiling is any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of such personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning that natural person's performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location, or movements.
6. Pseudonymization
Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal 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 to ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
7. Processor
A processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
8. Recipient
A recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body to which personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities that may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients.
9. 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 who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data.
10. Consent
Consent is any freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of the data subject's wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.
5. Legal basis for processing
Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR (in conjunction with § 25 (1) TDDDG (formerly TTDSG)) serves as the legal basis for our company for processing operations in which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose.
If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services.
If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. c) GDPR.
In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our premises were injured and their name, age, health insurance details, or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, hospital, or other third party. In this case, the processing would be based on Art. 6 (1) (d) GDPR.
Finally, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. This legal basis applies to processing operations that are not covered by any of the above legal bases if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this regard, it took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if you are a customer of our company (Recital 47, sentence 2 of the GDPR).
Our offer is generally aimed at adults. Persons under the age of 16 may not transmit any personal data to us without the consent of their parents or legal guardians. We do not request personal data from children and young people, do not collect such data, and do not pass it on to third parties.
6. Transfer of data to third parties
Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties for purposes other than those listed below.
We will only pass on your personal data to third parties if:
1. you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR,
2. the transfer is permissible in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR to safeguard our legitimate interests and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in not disclosing your data,
3. there is a legal obligation to disclose the data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR, and
4. this is legally permissible and necessary for the performance of contractual relationships with you in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.
In order to protect your data and enable us to transfer data to third countries (outside the EU/EEA) if necessary, we have concluded agreements on order processing based on the European Commission's standard contractual clauses. If the standard contractual clauses are not sufficient to establish an adequate level of security, your consent pursuant to Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR may serve as the legal basis for the transfer to third countries. This does not apply to data transfers to third countries for which the European Commission has issued an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR.
7. Technology
7.1 SSL/TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption to ensure the security of data processing and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders, login data, or contact requests that you send to us as the operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser contains “https://” instead of “http://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
We use this technology to protect your transmitted data.
7.2 Data collection when visiting the website
When you use our website for informational purposes only, if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information or give your consent to processing that requires consent, we only collect data that is technically necessary to provide the service. This is usually data that your browser transmits to our server (“in so-called server log files”). Our website collects a range of general data and information each time you or an automated system accesses a page. This general data and information is stored in the server log files. The following may be collected:
1. 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 referrer),
4. the subpages that are accessed via an accessing system on our website,
5. the date and time of access to the website,
6. an abbreviated Internet Protocol address (anonymized IP address), and
7. the Internet service provider of the accessing system.
When using this general data and information, we do not draw any conclusions about your person. Rather, this information is required in order to
1. deliver the content of our website correctly,
2. optimize the content of our website and the advertising for it,
3. ensure the long-term functionality of our IT systems and the technology of our website, and
4. provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack.
We therefore evaluate this collected data and information statistically on the one hand and with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company on the other, in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data in the server log files is stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.
The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest follows from the purposes listed above for data collection.
7.3 Cloudflare (Content Delivery Network)
Our website uses CloudFlare features. The provider is CloudFlare, Inc. 665 3rd St. #200, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA.
CloudFlare offers a globally distributed content delivery network with DNS. Technically, the transfer of information between your browser and our website is routed through the CloudFlare network. This enables CloudFlare to analyze the data traffic between users and our websites in order to detect and ward off attacks on our services, for example. CloudFlare may also store cookies on your computer for optimization and analysis purposes.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If you deactivate cookies, the functionality of this website may be limited.
We have concluded a corresponding agreement with Cloudflare for order processing based on the GDPR and in accordance with EU standard contractual clauses. Cloudflare collects statistical data about visits to this website. The access data includes: name of the website accessed, file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user's operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page), IP address, and the requesting provider. Cloudflare uses the log data for statistical evaluations for the purpose of operating, securing, and optimizing the website.
If you have consented to the use of Cloudflare, the legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. In addition, we have a legitimate interest in using Cloudflare to optimize our online offering and make it more secure. The corresponding legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. Personal data is stored for as long as it is necessary to fulfill the purpose of processing. The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose.
This US company is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. This means that an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR has been issued, allowing the transfer of personal data without further guarantees or additional measures.

7.4 Hosting by Hetzner
We host our website with Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen (hereinafter referred to as Hetzner).
When you visit our website, your personal data (e.g., IP addresses in log files) is processed on Hetzner's servers.
The use of Hetzner is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in the most reliable presentation, provision, and security of our website.
We have concluded a contract for order processing (AVV) with Hetzner in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.

7.5 jsDelivr
Our website incorporates components from jsDelivr, operated by Prospect One, Królewska 65A/1, PL-30-081 Kraków, Poland.
We use the open source service jsDelivr on our website to deliver content from our website to various user devices as quickly and technically flawlessly as possible.
jsDelivr is a content delivery network (CDN) that distributes the content on our website across various servers to ensure optimal global accessibility. A CDN typically uses servers that are geographically close to the respective website user. It can therefore be assumed that users within the EU are supplied with content via servers within the EU. To provide the content, jsDelivr collects user data such as the IP address.
According to the provider, jsDelivr does not use cookies or similar tracking technologies, but is only necessary for the technical reasons mentioned above.
Data processing is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

8. Cookies
8.1 General information about cookies
Cookies are small files that your browser automatically creates and that are stored on your IT system (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website.
The cookie stores information that is related to the specific device used. However, this does not mean that we immediately become aware of your identity.
The use of cookies serves to make the use of our website more pleasant for you. For example, we use so-called session cookies to recognize that you have already visited individual pages of our website. These are automatically deleted after you leave our site.
In addition, we also use temporary cookies to optimize user-friendliness, which are stored on your device for a specific period of time. If you visit our site again to use our services, it will automatically recognize that you have already been with us and what entries and settings you have made so that you do not have to enter them again.
Zum anderen setzten wir Cookies ein, um die Nutzung unserer Website statistisch zu erfassen und um unser Angebot, zum Zwecke der Optimierung, für Sie auszuwerten. Diese Cookies ermöglichen es uns, bei einem erneuten Besuch unserer Website automatisch zu erkennen, dass Sie diese bereits besucht haben. Die so gesetzten Cookies werden nach einer jeweils definierten Zeit automatisch gelöscht. Die jeweilige Speicherdauer der Cookies können den Einstellungen des eingesetzten Consent Tools entnommen werden.
8.2 Legal basis for the use of cookies
The data processed by cookies, which is necessary for the proper functioning of the website, is therefore necessary to safeguard our legitimate interests and those of third parties in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.
For all other cookies, you have given your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR via our opt-in cookie banner.
8.3 Information on avoiding cookies in common browsers

8.4 Usercentrics (consent management tool)
We use the consent management tool “Usercentrics” from Usercentrics GmbH, Sendlinger Str. 7, 80331 Munich, Germany. This service enables us to obtain and manage the consent of website users for data processing.
Usercentrics collects data generated by end users who use our website. When an end user gives their consent, Usercentrics automatically logs the following data:
- Browser information.
- Date and time of access.
- Device information.
- The URL of the page visited.
- Geographic location.
- Page path of the website.
- The consent status of the end user, which serves as proof of consent.
The consent status is also stored in the end user's browser so that the website can automatically read and comply with the end user's consent for all subsequent page requests and future end user sessions for up to 12 months. The consent data (consent and withdrawal of consent) is stored for three years. The retention period corresponds to the regular limitation period pursuant to Section 195 of the German Civil Code (BGB). The data is then immediately deleted or, upon request, transferred to the responsible person in the form of a data export.
The functionality of the website cannot be guaranteed without the processing described. The user has no right to object as long as there is a legal obligation to obtain the user's consent to certain data processing operations (Art. 7 (1), 6 (1) (c) GDPR).
Usercentrics is the recipient of your personal data and acts as a processor for us.
Detailed information on the use of Usercentrics can be found at: https://usercentrics.com/privacy-policy/.
9. Newsletter dispatch
9.1 Newsletter dispatch to existing customers
If you have provided us with your email address when purchasing goods or services, we reserve the right to regularly send you offers for similar goods or services from our range by email. In accordance with Section 7 (3) UWG, we do not need to obtain your separate consent for this. Data processing in this regard is based solely on our legitimate interest in personalized direct advertising in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. If you initially objected to the use of your email address for this purpose, we will not send you any emails. You are entitled to object to the use of your email address for the aforementioned advertising purpose at any time with effect for the future by notifying the controller named at the beginning. You will only incur transmission costs according to the basic rates for this. Upon receipt of your objection, the use of your email address for advertising purposes will be discontinued immediately.
10. Our activities on social networks
We have our own pages on social networks so that we can communicate with you there and inform you about our services. When you visit one of our social media pages, we are jointly responsible with the provider of the respective social media platform for the processing operations triggered by this, within the meaning of Art. 26 GDPR.
We are not the original provider of these pages, but merely use them within the scope of the options offered to us by the respective providers.
As a precaution, we would therefore like to point out that your data may also be processed outside the European Union or the European Economic Area. Use may therefore involve data protection risks for you, as it may be more difficult to protect your rights, e.g., to information, deletion, objection, etc., and processing on social networks is often carried out directly for advertising purposes or to analyze user behavior by the providers, without us being able to influence this. If usage profiles are created by the provider, cookies are often used or your usage behavior is assigned to your own member profile on social networks.
The processing of personal data described above is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest and the legitimate interest of the respective provider in order to communicate with you in a modern manner and to inform you about our services. If you as a user are required to give your consent to data processing by the respective providers, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 7 GDPR.
As we do not have access to the providers' databases, we would like to point out that it is best to exercise your rights (e.g., to information, correction, deletion, etc.) directly with the respective provider. Further information on the processing of your data in social networks is listed below for each social network provider we use:

11. Advertising
11.1 Google Ads with enhanced conversions
We have integrated Google Ads into this website. The operator of Google Ads services is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Ads is an internet advertising service that allows advertisers to place ads in Google search engine results and on the Google advertising network. The purpose of Google Ads is to promote our website by displaying interest-based advertising on the websites of third-party companies and in the search results of the Google search engine, and to display third-party advertising on our website.
If you access our website via a Google ad, Google will place a so-called conversion cookie on your IT system. A conversion cookie expires after thirty days and is not used to identify you. The conversion cookie is used to track whether certain subpages, such as the shopping cart of an online shop system, have been accessed on our website, provided that the cookie has not yet expired. The conversion cookie allows both us and Google to track whether a user who accessed our website via a Google Ads ad generated a sale, i.e., completed or canceled a purchase.
We use the enhanced conversions feature offered by Google Ads. To do this, we transmit personal data collected by us, such as telephone numbers or email addresses, to Google. This data is matched with event data from Google Ads in order to track more conversions.
Each time you visit our website, personal data, including the IP address of the Internet connection you are using, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. Google may pass on this personal data collected using technical procedures to third parties.
These processing operations are carried out exclusively with your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
The parent company Google LLC is certified as a US company under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. This means that an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR is in place, so that personal data may be transferred without further guarantees or additional measures.
You can view the privacy policy and further information from Google Ads at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/ or https://support.google.com/adspolicy/answer/9755941?hl=de&ref_topic=7012636&sjid=9061832235671554201-EU.
12. Plugins and other services
12.1 Google Photos
We use the Google Photos service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, to store images embedded on our website.
Embedding is the integration of specific third-party content (text, video, or image data) provided by another website (Google Photos) and then displayed on our own website (our web presence). A so-called embed code is used for embedding. If we have integrated an embed code, the external content from Google Photos is displayed immediately by default as soon as one of our web pages is visited.
The technical implementation of the embed code, which enables the display of images from Google Photos, transmits your IP address to Google Photos. Google Photos also records our website, the browser type used, the browser language, the time and duration of access. In addition, Google Photos may collect information about which of our subpages you visited and which links you clicked on, as well as other interactions you performed while visiting our site. This data may be stored and evaluated by Google Photos.
These processing operations are carried out exclusively with the express consent of the data subject in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
This US company is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. This constitutes an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR, meaning that personal data may be transferred without further guarantees or additional measures.
You can view Google's privacy policy at: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.
12.2 Google WebFonts
Our website uses so-called web fonts to ensure uniform font display. Google WebFonts are provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Ireland Limited is part of the Google group of companies headquartered at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
These processing operations are carried out exclusively with the express consent of the user in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
The parent company Google LLC is certified as a US company under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. This means that an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR has been made, so that personal data may be transferred without further guarantees or additional measures.
Further information on Google WebFonts and Google's privacy policy can be found at: https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq; https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.
12.3 YouTube (videos)
We have integrated components from YouTube into this website. YouTube is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. YouTube, LLC is a subsidiary of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
YouTube is an internet video portal that allows video publishers to upload video clips free of charge and other users to view, rate, and comment on them, also free of charge. YouTube allows the publication of all types of videos, which is why complete films and television programs, as well as music videos, trailers, or videos created by users themselves, can be accessed via the internet portal. Each time you visit one of the individual pages of this website operated by us and on which a YouTube component (YouTube video) has been integrated, the Internet browser on your IT system is automatically prompted by the respective YouTube component to download a representation of the corresponding YouTube component from YouTube. The services Google WebFonts, Google Video, and Google Photo can also be downloaded from YouTube. Further information about YouTube can be found at www.youtube.com/yt/about/de/. As part of this technical process, YouTube and Google are informed about which specific subpage of our website you are visiting.
If you are logged into YouTube at the same time, YouTube recognizes which specific subpage of our website you are visiting when you call up a subpage that contains a YouTube video. This information is collected by YouTube and Google and assigned to your YouTube account.
YouTube and Google receive information via the YouTube component that you have visited our website whenever you are logged into YouTube at the same time as visiting our website; this occurs regardless of whether you click on a YouTube video or not. If you do not want this information to be transmitted to YouTube and Google, you can prevent the transmission by logging out of your YouTube account before visiting our website.
These processing operations are carried out exclusively with your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
The parent company Google LLC is certified as a US company under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. This means that an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR has been made, so that personal data may be transferred without further guarantees or additional measures.
You can view YouTube's privacy policy at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
12.4 YouTube videos in extended data protection mode (YouTube NoCookies)
Some subpages of our website contain links or connections to YouTube content. In general, we are not responsible for the content of websites to which links are provided. However, if you follow a link to YouTube, we would like to point out that YouTube stores its users' data (e.g., personal information, IP address) in accordance with its own data usage guidelines and uses it for business purposes.
YouTube is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.
We also embed videos stored on YouTube directly on some subpages of our website. When this happens, content from the YouTube website is displayed in parts of a browser window. When you visit a (sub)page of our website that has YouTube videos embedded in it, a connection to the YouTube servers is established and the content is displayed on the website by sending a message to your browser.
YouTube content is only integrated in “extended data protection mode.” YouTube provides this mode itself, thereby ensuring that YouTube does not initially store any cookies on your device. However, when you visit the relevant pages, your IP address and, if applicable, other data will be transmitted, thereby revealing which of our web pages you have visited. However, this information cannot be attributed to you unless you have logged in to YouTube or another Google service before visiting the page or are permanently logged in. As soon as you start playing an embedded video by clicking on it, YouTube only stores cookies on your device that do not contain any personally identifiable data, unless you are currently logged in to a Google service. These cookies can be prevented by adjusting your browser settings and extensions.
Requesting the video also constitutes your consent to the placement of the corresponding cookie (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR).
This US company is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. This constitutes an adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR, meaning that personal data may be transferred without further guarantees or additional measures.
