​

3. 1You can generally use our website without providing any personal data. When using our services, you may be asked to provide personal data – for example, in connection with a contact form or questionnaire. Answering the questions and providing the information is voluntary. Your personal information, like all other personal data, will of course be stored and processed in accordance with statutory data protection regulations.

​

3.2

We collect and process your personal data during the ordering process, as well as its subsequent processing and use, to fulfill our own business purposes exclusively within the framework of the concluded contractual relationship. If you create a customer account, the collection, processing, and use of personal data takes place so that you do not have to enter your personal data again for future orders. We use your personal information for product orders only within our company. As a general rule, we do not pass on personal data to third parties without your express consent. Should we pass on data to service providers as part of order data processing, these service providers are bound by the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), other statutory provisions, and contractually by this privacy policy. If we are required to do so by law or court decisions, we will transmit your data to authorized bodies.

​

3.3

The posts in our forum are accessible to everyone. Therefore, you should carefully review your posts before publishing them to ensure they do not contain information that is not intended for public viewing. Please note that your posts will be indexed by search engines and will be accessible worldwide even without specifically accessing our website. Deletion or correction of such posts is often not possible with foreign operators.

​

3.4

In order to protect against persons who misuse the forum and violate the terms of use, Meyton reserves the right to review the activities on the forum using various monitoring tools as well as the content of the contributions or information posted by users - for example, for the content of obscene or pornographic content - without assuming any obligation to do so.

​

3.5

With the newsletter, Meyton informs you about its own company and current offers. If you would like to receive the newsletter, Meyton requires your email address. If you have subscribed to a newsletter, Meyton will use the specified email address to send you the newsletter. Following your registration, Meyton will send you an email to this address asking you to confirm your email address. You will only receive the newsletter after the confirmation link contained in this email has been clicked. Your data will not be passed on to third parties. The only exceptions are partner companies who are responsible for the technical processing of the newsletter dispatch. In these cases, however, the scope of the transmitted data is limited to the minimum necessary. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time. To do so, simply click the unsubscribe link included in each of our newsletters, or send an email to info@meyton.eu or a written cancellation to Meyton Elektronik GmbH, Kilverstraße 169-173, 32289 Rödinghausen. You will then no longer receive any further newsletters from Meyton.

Meyton uses "cookies." These are small text files that are stored on your computer during your visit to the platform, either temporarily until you close your browser ("session cookies") or for a longer period ("persistent cookies"), and are kept available for retrieval. Cookies support the functionality of Meyton's services. Meyton predominantly uses session cookies, which are temporarily stored exclusively for the duration of your use of the Meyton website and are automatically deleted when you close the browser. Persistent cookies are used to make it easier for you to personalize our platform. They record your surfing behavior on the platform and are automatically deleted from time to time.

5. Use of analysis programs

​​

Meyton uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"), on its platform. Google Analytics uses "cookies," which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website is usually transferred to a Google server in the United States and stored there. However, if IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the United States and shortened there. On behalf of Meyton, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide Meyton with other services related to website activity and internet usage.

The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data held by Google. You can prevent cookies from being saved by setting your browser software accordingly; however, Meyton points out that in this case you may not be able to use all of the functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link (tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout).
