3.    Subject matter of data protection

are the regulations to safeguard the individual person’s rights when processing personal data and its circulation (refer to art.1 (1) of GDPR).


4.    Collection, processing and usage of personal data

4.1. on our website 

For the use of our website it is generally not essential to provide private data. When you visit our website through our newsletter link for instance, we only store access data without personal reference, such as:

The data is being stored in our log files of our system on the legal grounds of collection and storage of data in art. 6 (1) of the DataP, and is used technically, so we are able to show you our website and to ensure stability and security of it.  The data stored in log files warrants the functionality of our website.  Furthermore, the data helps us to optimize our website and ensures the security of our IT-systems.

With this in mind our concern for data handling is well justified.  Personal data is being deleted as soon as the purpose of its collection has been served. So in case data has been collected for the purpose of visiting our website, it is deleted as soon as the session ends.  In case of log file storage, this would be the case after a maximum of 42 days. In case of an extended storage the IP-address of the respective user would be deleted or distorted, thus impossible to clearly assign to a client.

The collection of data to provide access to our website and the storage of data in log files is mandatory for the operation of our website, which means the user has no right to object. If you cannot consent, we regretfully advise you to leave this website. 

4.1.1  Personal details for the contact form

To use our service to contact us we need the following details:

4.2 Our cookies

CHEFS CULINAR uses cookies. Cookies are small text files, which are saved locally on the user’s browser on a website such as ours.  A small infobox advises you on the usage of cookies when you visit our website.  Again: if you cannot give consent, we kindly ask you to leave the website.

CHEFS CULINAR also uses so-called session-cookies; they are used to identify the current user session. A session-ID is assigned  to recognise the movement of the registered user on the interface.  Session-cookies are deleted automatically after leaving the site.

It is possible to block cookies by changing the settings of your browser (most browsers have a "privacy-mode" in their settings). We have to point out that not all functions of CHEFS CULINAR, such as advantages for our customers when placing an order with one of our partners, are then available in full.

Generated cookies can always be erased from your browser by yourself (in the settings of your browser). 

4.3 External service - eTracker

There is an external tracking service  - eTracker – integrated on our website. The technology of the company eTracker GmbH (www.etracker.com) collects and stores data for marketing and optimisation purposes. With this data a pseudonymous user profile can be generated; cookies also apply. Cookies are small text files, which are saved locally in the cache of the user’s browser on a website such as ours, and allow the recognition of the browser. Data collected with eTracker technololy is not used to identify a visitor of our website personally, or assembled with personal data of  the pseudonymous user, unless a customer has given a seperate consent.  The consent for collection and storage of data can be revoked at any given time.

Further information on data protection and privacy law of eTracker can be found in the company’s privacy staement.

As long as your personal data is being processed on grounds of interest, you have the right to object (GDPR art.21).
