LiveChat

We offer a LiveChat feature on our website to handle your inquiries more quickly and easily. We use a third-party tool for this purpose, and the third party acts as a data processor for us under a specific contract. The data is processed exclusively within the EU. We only process the personal data from you that is necessary for the further processing of your inquiry. Typically, this includes your name, email address, and address, as well as vehicle data if necessary and voluntarily provided.

The chat is not available outside of business hours. If you leave us a message, we will capture your name and email address to follow up on your inquiry.

For the continuous improvement of our services, the LiveChat tool also transmits the visited website, your device type, and browser type; however, your IP address will not be transmitted. These data, as well as the chat history, will be stored for 3 months for security reasons.

Should a contractual agreement be made between you and this garage, we are obliged to store your data for the legally required duration. If no agreement is reached, your data and the chat history will be deleted after 3 months.

As a user of the LiveChat function, you must not input personal data that falls under "special categories" according to Article 9 of the GDPR, such as information about race, religion, or health data. Furthermore, we prohibit the entry of payment information or credit card numbers.

Web Analytics with Google Analytics

This website uses features of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses target-oriented cookies. More information on the handling of user data by Google Analytics can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de

Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", text files that are stored on the user's computer and allow an analysis of the website's usage by the user. The information generated by the cookie about the use of this website by the users is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

On this website, the IP address of the visitors is shortened before it is transmitted to Google for analysis. This IP anonymization is based on an agreement granted by Google for companies in the European Economic Area or other contracting states. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate the use of the website by users, compile reports on website activities, and provide additional services related to website and internet usage to the website operator.

The IP address transmitted from your device to Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google. Users can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting their browser settings accordingly; however, this may result in not being able to fully use all features of this website. Users can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to their use of the website (including their IP address) and the transmission of this data to Google, as well as the processing of this data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Server Log Files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser transmits to us. These include: the name of the accessed webpage, file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, message about successful retrieval, browser type and version, the user's operating system, referrer URL (the previous page visited), IP address, and the requesting provider.

These data cannot be assigned to specific individuals. A combination of this data with other data sources will not be made. The provider uses the log data solely for statistical evaluations to ensure the operation, security, and optimization of the offer. However, the provider reserves the right to check the log data retrospectively if there are concrete indications of unlawful use. The log data will be deleted when there is no longer a legal necessity.

SSL Encryption

This page uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as inquiries you send to us. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the change in the browser address bar from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser bar. When SSL encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Integration of Third-Party Services and Content

It may occur that third-party content, such as videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, links to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Skeeled, online registration forms from Drivelo, RSS feeds, or graphics from other websites, are embedded within this online offer. This always requires that the providers of these contents (hereinafter referred to as "third-party providers") process the IP address of the users. Without the IP address, they could not send the content to the user’s browser. Therefore, the IP address is required for the display of these contents. Data entered into the Drivelo form (e.g., name, email address, phone number) is used exclusively to process your request and is handled in accordance with applicable data protection regulations. For more information on how Drivelo processes data, please refer to their privacy policy. Information about the use of cookies in connection with embedded services can be found in our cookie policy.

We strive to only use content whose providers use the IP address solely for delivering the content. However, we have no influence over whether third-party providers store the IP address, e.g., for statistical purposes. If this is known to us, we will inform users accordingly.
