All data collection and processing is performed for specific purposes. These may result from technical necessities, contractual requirements, or explicit customer requests. For technical reasons, certain data might be collected and stored during a visit to schenker-ventures.com. As for example the date and duration of the visit, the web pages used, the identification data of the browser and operating system type used, and the website from which you visit us.

If you register for our newsletter, the following required information is collected: Salutation, first name, last name, E-Mail address and if you are a founder or investor.

In this case, we may use your e-mail address for promotional purposes.

If you sign up for our newsletter “Schenker Ventures NewsFeed”, we save the IP address of the computer system assigned to you by your Internet service provider (ISP) and the date and time of registration. We save this data to track (potential) abuse of the email address of a data subject, for our own legal protection. You can deregister from the newsletter at any time under unsubscribe “Schenker Ventures NewsFeed” or by clicking the deregister link at the end of your newsletter.

If you object to the promotional use of your data, your data will only be used anonymized, for statistical analysis purposes.

Due to statutory requirements, our web pages contain details enabling you to make fast electronic contact with us as well as direct communication with our companies. Where a data subject contacts us by email or via a contact form, the personal data thereby transferred will be stored automatically. This also applies to inquiries by telephone in which case the information provided by you will be stored in order to process your inquiry. This takes place for the purpose of processing or making contact. Sharing this personal data with third parties without your consent is not permitted unless we are under a legal obligation to do so.

To continuously improve our offerings, we save and analyze usage data from the online area on a pseudonymized basis. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

To the extent that we request consent to process your personal data, it serves as the legal basis according to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

For processing of personal data required to fulfill a contract with you, the contract is the legal basis according to Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Article 6(1)(b) GDPR also applies to processing operations that are required to execute preliminary measures, for example, if you ask about our products or services.

If our company is subject to legal demands that require us to process personal data, for example, to fulfill tax responsibilities, then processing is based on Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.

Your data must also be deleted if it is not permissible to store them (particularly if the data are inaccurate and correction is not possible). Where legal or practical obstacles prevent deletion, the data are blocked (e.g. special archiving obligations).
