Google Tag Manager / Google Analytics:

We use the web analysis tool "Google Analytics" to design our websites according to your needs. Google Analytics creates user profiles based on pseudonyms. For this purpose, permanent cookies are stored on your end device and accessed out by us.  In this way we are able to recognize and measure returning visitors.  

The Google Analytics tool is provided by Google Ireland Limited and Google LLC. (USA) who support us as processors according to Art. 28 GDPR. The data processing can therefore also take place outside the EU or EEA. With regard to Google LLC (USA), no adequate level of data protection can be assumed due to the processing in the USA. There is a risk that authorities may access the data for security and surveilliance purposes without you being informed or having the right to appeal.

Please take this into account if you decide to give your consent to our use of Google Analytics.

The legal basis for this data processing is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or § 15 (3) S. 1 German Telemedia Act (TMG), if you have given your consent via our consent banner.

The transfer to a third country takes place on the basis of Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR.  

You can withdraw your consent at any time. Please follow this link and make the appropriate settings via our banner.

Third party tracking technologies for advertising purposes

We use cross-device tracking technologies to help us show you targeted advertising on other websites based on your visit to our websites and to help us determine how effective our advertising efforts have been.

The legal basis for this data processing is your consent if you have given your consent via our consent banner.

Your consent is voluntary and can be withdrawn at any time.

How does tracking work?

When you visit our websites, it is possible that the third-party providers listed below may retrieve identification characteristics of your browser or terminal device (e.g. a browser fingerprint), evaluate your IP address, save or extract identification characteristics on your terminal device (e.g. cookies) or gain access to individual tracking pixels.

The individual characteristics can be used by these third parties to identify your terminal device on other websites. We may commission these third-party providers to show you advertisements based on the pages visited on our website.

What does cross-device tracking mean?

If you log on to the third-party provider with your user data, the respective identification characteristics of different browsers and end devices can be linked with each other. For example, if the third-party provider has created a unique identifier for each laptop, desktop personal computer, smartphone or tablet you use, these individual identifiers can be associated with each other as soon as you log in to a third-party service using your login credentials. This allows the third party to target our advertising campaigns across multiple devices.

Which third-party providers do we use in this context?

The third-party providers with whom we work for advertising purposes are listed below. If the data is processed outside the EU or EEA in this context, please note that there is a risk that local authorities may access the data for security and monitoring purposes without you being informed or having the right to appeal. Where we use providers in third countries without an adequate level of protection and you give your consent, the transfer to this third country is based on Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR.

Online-Recruiting

Data we need

During the application we process data from you which we need in the context of the application. This can be contact data, all data related to the application (curriculum vitae, certificates, qualifications, answers to questions, etc.) and, if applicable, bank account data (to reimburse travel expenses). We process your personal data in accordance with applicable data protection regulations pursuant to § 26 BDSG. We process the data you provide us in the context of your online application strictly for the purpose of selecting applicants. Data will not be processed for other purposes.

Data erasure

If no legal retention period exists, the data will be deleted as soon as storage is no longer necessary or the legitimate interest in storage has lapsed (no longer than six months after completion of the application procedure). 

In individual cases, personal data may be stored for a longer period (e.g. travel expense reports). The duration of the storage depends on the legal storage obligations e.g. from the tax code (6 years) or the commercial code (10 years).

If you have not been hired but your application is still of interest to us, we will ask you whether we may keep your application available for future appointments.

Confidential treatment of your data

Your data will be treated confidentially. Our application management system is a portal solution from d.vinci HR-Systems GmbH. All data is centrally stored, processed, used and finally deleted. 

In addition to this service provider, we only use service providers who are strictly bound by instructions, e.g. in the area of destruction of documents with separate data processing agreements.

Order (Direct Order)

We use your personal data that you send us as part of an "order" pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR exclusively for the processing of your orders. We delete the data after expiry of the legal retention periods. Your data will be transmitted to our shipping service within the framework of order processing. We generally use your e-mail address only for notifications about the status of your order.

Contactbutton/Product Inquiry

You may contact us third-party via our contact forms. In order to use our contact forms, we will require you to provide the data marked as mandatory. The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, being our legitimate interest to respond to your request.

You can decide whether or not you would like to provide us with further information. This information is provided voluntarily and is not required to contact us. We process your voluntary details on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. Your data will only be processed to process your request. We will delete your data if they are no longer required and there are no legal obligations to retain them.

Where the processing of your data which is transmitted via the contact form is based on legitimate interest in accordance with   Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to that processing at any time. To do so, please use the email address provided in the imprint. In addition, you can withdraw your consent to the processing of your voluntarily provided information at any time.  To do so, please use the email address provided in the imprint.

Data processing on basis of consent

If you have given your separate consent to be informed by e-mail about the company's own products and services, your data will be processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. We use your data exclusively to inform you about products and services of Nordmark Pharma GmbH. You may withdraw your consent at any time, e.g. via an email to collagenase(at)nordmark-biochemicals.com.

Google Maps

On our web sites, we embed map services which are not stored on our servers. In order to prevent the automatic downloading of third-party content when you visit our web sites with embedded map services, we only show locally stored preview images of the maps as a first step. This does not provide the third-party provider with any information.

Only after you click on the preview image, will third-party content be downloaded. This provides the third party with information that you have accessed our site and with the usage data technically required for this purpose. We have no influence on the further data processing by the third-party provider. By clicking on the preview image, you give us the consent to download contents of the third-party provider.

The legal basis for the embedding processing is your consent according to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or § 15 (3) S. 1 German Telemedia Act (TMG), provided that you have previously given your consent by clicking on the preview image.

Please note that the embedding of some map services means that your data may be processed outside the EU or EEA. In some countries, there is a risk that authorities may access the data for security and surveillance purposes without informing you or allowing you to take legal action. Where we use providers in third countries without an adequate level of protection and you give your consent, the transfer to this third country is based on Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR.

To avoid this downloading on other sites, please do not click on the preview image.

Embedded Videos

On our websites, we embed videos that are not hosted on our servers. In order to ensure that accessing our websites containing embedded videos does not automatically lead to the download of third-party content, we only show locally hosted preview images of the videos as a first step. As a result, the third-party provider does not receive any information.

Only after you click on the preview image, is content from the third-party provider downloaded. This provides the third party with information that you have accessed our site and with the usage data technically required for this purpose. Furthermore, the third party provider is then able to implement tracking technologies. We have no influence on the further data processing by the third-party provider. By clicking on the preview image, you give us your consent to download content from the third-party provider.

The embedding is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR, provided that you have given your consent by clicking on the preview image. Please note that the embedding of many videos leads to your data being processed outside the EU or EEA. In some countries, there is a risk that authorities may access the data for security and surveillance purposes without informing you or allowing you to take legal action. Where we use providers in third countries without an adequate level of protection and you give your consent, the transfer to this third country is based on Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR.
