Consent under data protection law:

I consent to the data I share via the contact form (mandatory information and any voluntary information) being collected, processed and used by bulthaup as the responsible organization for the purpose of sending information material by post, responding to my inquiry by email, and – if and to the extent expressly requested via the contact form – sending information via email. If I have requested that I be contacted and/or information material be sent to me by the bulthaup retail partner in my vicinity, my data (mandatory and voluntary information) may also be transmitted to the retail partner (in the case of retail partners based outside Germany, also to the bulthaup agency representing that retail partner) for this purpose and processed and used by them.

Please note: Without your consent, your request will not receive a response. Data from prospective clients outside Germany will be communicated to the retail partner nearest to you via the foreign bulthaup agency, if such agency exists. The list of bulthaup national agencies can be found here.

Data entered in the contact forms is processed on the basis of your consent (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent to the processing and use of your data for the specified purposes at any time. Please send your withdrawal of consent by post to Bulthaup GmbH & Co KG, subject Data Protection, 84155 Aich, Germany or by email to datenschutz@bulthaup.com.

4. Social media

4. Social media

Sharing content via plug-ins (Facebook, Pinterest)

So-called “social plug-ins” are used on our website to raise awareness of our company pursuant to Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. We currently use plug-ins from Facebook and Pinterest. Data, including personal data, may be sent via these plug-ins to service providers in the USA and potentially used by these service providers.

Protection tool

bulthaup does not collect any personal data via the social plug-ins or any personal data about the use of plug-ins. A program prevents data from being transmitted to the service provider in the USA without the user’s knowledge. This solution ensures that for the moment, no personal data is transferred to the provider of the social plug-in when you visit bulthaup’s websites. Data can only be transmitted to the service provider and stored there if you click on one of the social plug-ins.

Access by the service provider

The service provider then receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding sub-page of our website. This happens regardless of whether you have an account with the service provider and whether you are logged in. If you are logged in to the service provider this will be directly assigned to your account. If you click on one of the social plug-ins and, for example, link this website, the service provider will also store this information in your user account and publicly share this association.

If you do not wish this assignment to your profile with the service provider you must log out before clicking on one of the social plug-ins.

We have no influence over whether and to what extent the service provider collects personal data. The scope, purpose and storage period of the collected data is also unknown. It must be assumed that, at a minimum, the IP address and information related to the device used are collected and used. It is also possible that the service provider uses cookies.

Google Analytics remarketing

Our websites also use the functions of Google Analytics remarketing in conjunction with the cross-device functions of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. These are provided by Google Inc. 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, California 94043, USA.

This function enables advertising target groups created by Google Analytics remarketing to be linked with the cross-device functions of Google AdWords and Google DoubleClick. Accordingly, interest-related and personalized adverts are shown, which have been adapted in accordance with your previous usage behavior and surfing habits on one device (e.g. cellphone) and also shown on another of your devices (e.g. tablet or PC).

If you have provided the appropriate consent, Google will link your web and app browser histories with your Google account. This allows every device which you log in to with your Google account to have the same personalized adverts shown.

To support this function, Google Analytics collects Google-authenticated user IDs, which are temporarily linked to your Google Analytics data to define and create target groups for cross-device advertising.

You can permanently object to cross-device remarketing/targeting by deactivating personalized advertising in your Google account. Please visit the following to do so: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.

A potential summary of the data collected in your Google account is only carried out on the basis of your consent, which you can provide to or withdraw from Google (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR).

Matomo

This website uses the open source web analytics service Matomo.

With the help of Matomo, we are able to collect and analyse data about the use of our website by website visitors. This enables us to find out, among other things, when which page views were made and from which region they came. We also collect various log files (e.g. IP address, referrer, browsers and operating systems used) and can measure whether our website visitors perform certain actions (e.g. clicks, purchases, etc.).

The use of this analysis tool is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise both its website and its advertising. If a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) as defined by the TTDSG. The consent can be revoked at any time.

IP anonymisation

We use IP anonymisation for the analysis with Matomo. This means that your IP address is shortened before analysis so that it can no longer be clearly assigned to you.

We host Matomo exclusively on our own servers so that all analysis data remains with us and is not passed on.
