The protection of personal data is an important concern for us within the Donau Chemie Group. For this reason, the Donau Chemie company named in the imprint (“Donau Carbon”) operates these web pages in accordance with the applicable legal regulations for the protection of personal data and data security.
The following provisions provide information about which data we collect on these web pages, for what purposes we use them, and to whom we may disclose them.

Data Collected and Purpose of Processing

We use cookies on these web pages. For further information, please refer to our Cookie Policy. It also explains how you can object to the use of cookies and the use of data collected via cookies in anonymized or pseudonymized user profiles.

Accesses to our website are logged for security analyses and to prevent attacks. Apart from the IP address, no personal data is generally collected or used. IP addresses are evaluated only in the event of an attack. Log data is regularly deleted in a timely manner.

Furthermore, we collect personal data (e.g., names, addresses, telephone numbers, or email addresses) in connection with the operation of our websites only when you voluntarily provide such data to us (e.g., through registration, contact requests, surveys, etc.) and when we are authorized to process or use them based on your consent or on a legal provision.

We generally use this data only for the purpose for which you have provided it to us, such as answering your inquiries, processing your orders, or providing access to specific information or offers.

Disclosure of Data

If you have given your consent or if we are otherwise legally permitted to do so, we may disclose your personal data to subsidiaries or affiliated companies as well as distribution partners for the purposes mentioned above.

Donau Carbon cooperates with service providers in connection with the operation of this website and the services provided through it, such as hosting or IT maintenance providers.

These recipients may be located in countries outside the European Economic Area (“third countries”), where the applicable law does not provide the same level of data protection as in your home country. In such cases, Donau Carbon takes measures to ensure an adequate level of data protection by other means.

Data is disclosed exclusively within the scope and in compliance with the applicable legal provisions. We will neither sell your personal data to third parties nor otherwise market it.
