Privacy Policy
The protection of personal data is of utmost importance to us. This privacy policy applies to the use of the website www.exclusivecarfamily.de or www.carfamily.de. The service provider in accordance with § 13 of the German Telemedia Act (TMG) and responsible under Art. 4 (7) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is Philip Priebe. Further details can be found in our [Legal Notice](https://exclusivecarfamily.de/impressum).
1. Automated Data Collection and Processing
As is customary, our server automatically and temporarily collects and stores information in the server log files, which are transmitted by the browser, unless deactivated by you (the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). This includes, for example, the IP address of the requesting computer, the HTTP response code, the website from which you are visiting us, the time of the server request, as well as the browser type, version, and operating system of the requesting computer.
There is no personal evaluation of the server log files. The provider is unable to associate these data with specific individuals at any time, and these data are not merged with other data sources.
2. Collection and Processing of Voluntarily Provided Daty
If you provide us with personal data via email or our website (e.g., name, first name, email address, address), this is generally done voluntarily. These data are used to process your inquiries and are processed solely for the purpose for which you provided them to us.
Beyond this, for example, for sending advertisements, we will collect, process, or use your data only within the scope of legal provisions or with your express consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). If you provide consent electronically as part of our online offering, we comply with the statutory notice requirements and document your consent using appropriate technical systems.
We assure you that your personal data will not be disclosed to third parties, unless we are legally obliged to do so, or you have expressly given your prior consent.
Where we engage third-party services to process data, the provisions of the GDPR and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) are adhered to.
3. Retention Period
Personal data provided to us via our website will be stored until the purpose for which they were entrusted to us has been fulfilled. Where commercial and tax retention periods must be observed, the storage duration of specific data may extend up to 10 years.
4. Cookies
The website uses cookies. Cookies do not damage your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are small text files stored locally in your browser’s cache. Cookies serve to recognize your internet browser and are used for session control and statistical evaluation. These cookies do not contain any personal data. You can configure your browser to prevent the storage of cookies or to delete already stored cookies. Please follow your browser's help instructions on how to prevent or delete cookies. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
5. Use of Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies," text files that are stored on your computer, to analyze your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the USA. However, if IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be truncated by Google within the member states of the European Union or other parties 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 USA and shortened there.
On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services relating to website and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. You can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser software; however, please note that you may not be able to use all features of this website to their full extent. Additionally, you can prevent Google from collecting and processing data generated by the cookie related to your website usage (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at: [http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en](http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en).
For more information on the terms of use and data privacy, please visit [http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/en.html](http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/en.html) and [http://www.google.com/intl/en/analytics/privacyoverview.html](http://www.google.com/intl/en/analytics/privacyoverview.html).
6. Use of Google Maps
This website uses Google Maps. This allows us to display interactive maps directly on the website and enables you to conveniently use the map feature.
By visiting the website, Google receives information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. Additionally, the data specified in section 1 of this declaration will be transmitted. This happens regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged into or whether no user account exists. If you are logged into Google, your data will be directly associated with your account. If you do not want your profile to be associated with Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data as user profiles and uses them for purposes of advertising, market research, and/or tailoring its website. Such an evaluation takes place, in particular (even for users not logged in), to provide tailored advertising and inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, but you must contact Google to exercise this right.
Further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and its processing by the plugin provider can be found in the provider’s privacy policies. You will also find more information about your rights and options for protecting your privacy at: [http://www.google.de/intl/en/policies/privacy](http://www.google.de/intl/en/policies/privacy). Google also processes your personal data in the USA and is subject to the EU-US Privacy Shield, [https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework](https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework).
7. Google Web Fonts
This website uses external fonts, Google Fonts. Google Fonts is a service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). The integration of these web fonts is done by accessing a server, usually a Google server in the USA. This transmits to the server which of our internet pages you have visited. Google also stores the IP address of the browser on the end device of the visitor.
Further information can be found in Google’s privacy policy, which is available here:

8. Comments and Contributions
When users post comments or other contributions, their IP addresses are stored. This is for the security of the provider, in case someone posts illegal content (such as insults, pornography, or copyrighted material). In such cases, the provider may be held responsible for the comment or contribution and is therefore interested in the identity of the author.
9. Data Security / SSL Encryption
In accordance with the legal regulations of § 13 (7) TMG, this site uses SSL encryption, identifiable by a lock symbol in your browser's address bar. When SSL encryption is activated, data transmitted cannot be read by third parties.
This generally involves 256-bit encryption. If your browser does not support 256-bit encryption, we use 128-bit v3 technology instead. You can recognize whether an individual page of our website is transmitted in encrypted form by the closed key or lock symbol in the lower status bar of your browser.
We also use appropriate technical and organizational security measures (TOM) to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction, or unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
