GOLDBECK processes personal data that we receive from you as a contractual partner. This data is supplemented by personal data that we obtain from publicly accessible sources, which notably include the commercial register, the press and the media.

Your personal data is processed in compliance with the regulations of both the applicable national data protection laws and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR), applying the following provisions:
Insofar as you have expressly or implicitly given GOLDBECK consent to process personal data for specific purposes, this processing is lawful on the basis of said consent. Any consent given can be withdrawn at any time. This also applies to the revocation of declarations of consent that were granted to GOLDBECK before the EU General Data Protection Regulation came into force, i.e. before 25 May 2018.
Upon your request or after commissioning for a specific project or other delivery and service, the data agreement is established for the purposes stated under Section II and is necessary for the appropriate handling of the project and for the mutual fulfilment of obligations arising from the contract.
Based on the contractual relationship already established between you and GOLDBECK in the past, GOLDBECK has a legitimate interest in processing and transmitting your personal data within the GOLDBECK Group for internal administrative purposes. The processing of your personal data is necessary so that we can continue to share calls for tender with you for potential projects and continue our cooperation in the future.
GOLDBECK processes your personal data for the fulfilment of legal obligations, e.g. for infection control for the purpose of implementing corresponding Covid measures.
As a data subject within the meaning of the German Data Protection Act (Datenschutzgesetz), you have the right:
Once you have given GOLDBECK your consent, you may withdraw it at any time. From this point on, GOLDBECK may no longer continue to process your data based on this consent.
You can request information about the personal data GOLDBECK has processed pertaining to you. You may notably request information about the processing purposes, the categories of personal data concerned, the categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing or objection, the existence of a right to lodge a complaint, the origin of your data if it was not collected by us, and the existence of automated decision-making including profiling, including meaningful information on the details of such technology.
You can request the rectification of any inaccurate personal data or the completion of any incomplete personal data stored by GOLDBECK with immediate effect.
You may request the erasure of your personal data as stored by GOLDBECK unless the processing of said data is necessary in order to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest, or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.
You may request the restriction of the processing of your personal data insofar as the accuracy of the data is disputed by you, the processing is unlawful, but you object to its erasure and we no longer require the data for our processing purposes, but you need it for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims, or you have objected to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 of the EU GDPR.
You have the right to receive your personal data that you have provided to GOLDBECK in a structured, conventional and machine-readable format, or to request that it be transferred to another controller.
You can lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. As a rule, you can contact the supervisory authority of your usual place of residence or workplace, or the registered office of our company.
Insofar as your personal data is processed on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6, para. 1, item 1, lit. f) of the EU GDPR, you have the right to object to your personal data being processed pursuant to Art. 21 of the EU GDPR. This applies insofar as there are grounds for doing so that arise from your particular situation, or if your objection relates to direct advertising. In the latter case, you have a general right of objection, which will be implemented by us with no further details required regarding the situation at hand.
If you wish to exercise your right to object, simply send an email to: widerspruch@goldbeck.de.
Your personal data as collected by GOLDBECK will be stored by us beyond the end of our business relationship for a period of 10 calendar years and then erased, unless GOLDBECK is obliged to store the data for a longer period due to tax or commercial law retention and documentation obligations pursuant to Art. 6, para. 1, item 1, lit. c) of the EU GDPR.
Furthermore, a longer retention period may also be necessary for the preservation of evidence under national statutes of limitation.
GOLDBECK will not disclose your personal data to third parties for purposes other than those listed below. GOLDBECK will only pass on your personal data to third parties:
Where we work with commissioned data processors, we ensure by means of separate contracts (known as commissioned data processing agreements) that your data is protected by the processor in the same way as it is protected by us.
As a matter of principle, data is not transferred to bodies in countries outside the EU. However, such transfers may take place under the certain conditions, including but not limited to:
Email communication with GOLDBECK is always encrypted, provided that your server supports encryption.
GOLDBECK maintains an online presence within social media networks and platforms to communicate with business partners, interested parties and users who are active in these channels and to keep them informed about our services.

Social media plugins are not used. These have been replaced by the links described in X. We use plug-ins for the social networks Facebook, Instagram, X, Xing, LinkedIn and YouTube on our website on the basis of Art. 6, para. 1, item 1, lit. f) of the EU GDPR. The purpose of this is to raise the profile of our company and to enable us to analyse, optimise and improve the commercial efficiency of our website. The legal purpose behind this is to be regarded as a legitimate interest as defined in the EU GDPR.
The respective providers of these plug-ins are responsible for ensuring that they operate in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations. We embed these plug-ins using the two-click method to ensure we can protect visitors to our website to the best possible extent.
a) Facebook social plug-ins
Our website uses social media plug-ins from the social network facebook.com, which is operated by Facebook Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Central Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (‘Facebook’). The plug-ins can display interaction elements or content (e.g. videos, graphics or text contributions) and are recognisable by one of the Facebook logos (white ‘f’ on a blue tile, the term ‘Like’, or a ‘thumbs up’ sign) or else are marked with the words ‘Facebook social plug-in’. The list and appearance of Facebook social plug-ins can be viewed here:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.
Facebook uses standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission and, where applicable, relies on adequacy decisions issued by the European Commission regarding specific countries for data transfers from the EEC to the US and other countries.
When you launch a function on this website that contains a plug-in like this, your device establishes a direct connection with the Facebook servers. The content of the plug-in is transmitted by Facebook directly to your device and integrated by it into the website. The data processed during this process can be used to create user profiles. We therefore have no influence on the scope of the data that Facebook collects with the help of this plug,-in and any information we provide to you in this regard is according to the best of our knowledge.
Due to the integration of the plugins, Facebook receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding page of the website. If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can match the visit to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plug-ins – e.g. by clicking the Like button or posting a comment – the corresponding information is transmitted from your device directly to Facebook and stored there. If you are not a member of Facebook, there is still a possibility that Facebook will learn and store your IP address. According to Facebook, only an anonymised IP address will be stored in Germany.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook, together with your rights in this regard and settings options for protecting your privacy, can be found in Facebook’s privacy policy:
https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/.

The information generated by the cookies regarding your use of this website (including the anonymised IP address), such as the user’s language settings, time spent on the website and individual pages visited, is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The analysis of your surfing behaviour is usually anonymous, which means that your surfing behaviour cannot be traced back to you. Google will use this data for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators, and providing other services relating to our website and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf (‘Google affiliates’).
By using our website, you consent to Google processing data pertaining to you in the manner and for the purposes set out above.

We use "Google reCAPTCHA" (hereinafter "reCAPTCHA") on this website. This service is provided by Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
The aim of reCAPTCHA is to check whether the data entered on this website (e.g. in a contact form) is input by a human or an automated programme. To this end, reCAPTCHA analyses the behaviour of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor opens the website. To perform the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various types of information (e.g. IP address, length of time the website visitor stays on the website, mouse movements made by the user). The interaction data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.

This website uses the Google Tag Manager. This service allows website tags to be managed via an interface. The Google Tool Manager only implements tags; it does not place cookies on your device or collect any personal data. The Google Tag Manager triggers other tags on websites outside of GOLDBECK’s scope of responsibility that may collect personal data. However, Google Tag Manager does not access this data.
If deactivation has been carried out at the domain or cookie level, this will remain valid for all tracking tags, providing they are implemented using the Google Tag Manager.
This site uses ‘web fonts’ provided by Google to ensure the uniform display of fonts. When you open a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display text and fonts correctly. We have opted for the offline version of this service, in which the Google Fonts are stored locally on our web server. This means that the fonts can be managed like any other font family, with the help of CSS. The IP address and other data are not transmitted to Google.
The use of Google Web Fonts serves our interest in ensuring that our websites have a uniform and appealing appearance with regard to efficiency and cost-saving considerations. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. f of the GDPR and Section 25, Para 2 (2) of the TDDDG. If your browser does not support Web Fonts, your computer will use a default font.
