General information
The following information provides a simple overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit this website. Personal data is any data that can be used to personally identify you. Detailed information on data protection can be found in our privacy policy, which is linked below.
Data collection on this website
Who is responsible for data collection on this website?
Data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator. Their contact details can be found in the section "Information on the responsible body" in this privacy policy.
How do we collect your data?
Your data is collected, firstly, because you provide it to us. This could include, for example, data that you enter into a contact form.
Other data is collected automatically or with your consent by our IT systems when you visit the website. This is primarily technical data (e.g., internet browser, operating system, or time of page access). This data is collected automatically as soon as you access this website.
What do we use your data for?
Some data is collected to ensure the website functions correctly. Other data may be used to analyze your user behavior.
What rights do you have regarding your data?
You have the right to obtain information free of charge at any time regarding the origin, recipients, and purpose of your stored personal data. You also have the right to request the correction or deletion of this data. If you have given your consent to data processing, you can revoke this consent at any time for the future. Furthermore, you have the right, under certain circumstances, to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
You can contact us at any time with regard to this and other questions concerning data protection.
Whistleblower protection
Our whistleblower protection system is an important part of our website, ensuring that we can quickly and effectively uncover potential violations of laws and internal policies. We want to ensure that our guests and employees feel safe when reporting potential violations to us.
DSO Datenschutz Osnabrück GmbH,
Mercatorstr. 11,
49080 Osnabrück, Germany.
Email: info@dso-datenschutz.de
(remove " Tel.: +49 541 60081631.
Our external data protection officer is available to receive your information by email, telephone, or mail. We guarantee that all information will be treated confidentially and that no conclusions can be drawn about the whistleblower. To use the whistleblower protection system, simply contact the external data protection officer and share your concerns or information. You have the option of revealing your identity or remaining anonymous. However, we recommend disclosing your identity, as this allows us to investigate potential violations more quickly and effectively. It also gives us the opportunity to contact you with follow-up questions via our data protection officer. Of course, your identity will be protected in this process as well.
Here are a few more tips to protect the content of your report and your identity:
- When making email inquiries, if possible, do not use your work computer or your company email address, but instead use, for example, a private email account
- Do not send any supporting documents (files, etc.) directly to the data protection officer via email; instead, first explain your request
Violations can be reported that affect the following areas:
- public procurement,
- Financial services, financial products and financial markets, as well as the prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing,
- Product safety and compliance,
- Road safety,
- environmental protection,
- Radiation protection and nuclear safety,
- Food and feed safety, animal health and animal welfare,
- public health,
- Consumer protection,
- Protection of privacy and personal data, as well as security of network and information systems
These reports can have serious consequences, but the whistleblower protection law protects the person making the report from retaliation such as dismissal, reprimand or discrimination.
We would like to emphasize that we take all reports seriously and are committed to investigating and rectifying any potential violations of laws and internal policies. We thank you in advance for your support in maintaining a safe and ethical work environment.

Note regarding the responsible body
The responsible body for data processing on this website is:
Alfsee GmbH
am Campingpark 10
49597 Rieste
Telephone: +49 5464-9212-0
Email: info@ alfsee.de
The responsible entity is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).
Storage duration
Unless a more specific retention period is stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing the data no longer applies. If you submit a legitimate request for erasure or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted, provided we have no other legally permissible grounds for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, the data will be deleted once these grounds cease to apply.
General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR if special categories of data pursuant to Article 9(1) GDPR are processed.

Notice regarding data transfer to the USA and other third countries
We use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries that do not offer adequate data protection. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these third countries. Please note that a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU cannot be guaranteed in these countries. For example, US companies are obligated to disclose personal data to security authorities without you, as the data subject, having any legal recourse. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that US authorities (e.g., intelligence agencies) may process, analyze, and permanently store your data located on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no control over these processing activities.
Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to object to data processing in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
If data processing is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR, you have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The specific legal basis for each processing operation can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or the processing serves the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR).
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be processed for direct marketing purposes (objection pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR).
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. This right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
Right to data portability
You have the right to receive the data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, either for yourself or for a third party, in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if technically feasible.
SSL or TLS encryption
This site uses SSL/TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential information, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address bar changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser's address bar.
When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.
Information, deletion and correction
Under applicable law, you have the right to request information, free of charge, about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, as well as the right to rectification or erasure of this data. You can contact us at any time with regard to this and any other questions concerning personal data.
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to do so. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:
- If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification process, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
- If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data instead of erasure.
- If you have objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of interests between your interests and ours must be carried out. Until it is determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data – apart from being stored – may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or of a Member State.
Objection to advertising emails
The use of contact details published as part of the legal notice for sending unsolicited advertising and informational materials is hereby prohibited. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising, such as spam emails.

This data is aggregated into a user ID and assigned to the respective device of the website visitor.
Furthermore, we can use Google Analytics to record your mouse movements, scrolling, and clicks, among other things. Google Analytics also uses various modeling approaches to supplement the collected data and employs machine learning technologies for data analysis.
Google Analytics uses technologies that enable user recognition for the purpose of analyzing user behavior (e.g., cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about the use of this website is generally transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the USA.
The use of this analytics tool is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising. If consent has been obtained, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG), insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG.

CleverReach
This website uses CleverReach for sending newsletters. The provider is CleverReach GmbH & Co. KG, Schafjückenweg 2, 26180 Rastede, Germany (hereinafter "CleverReach").

Further information on data analysis through CleverReach newsletters can be found at : https://www.cleverreach.com/de/funktionen/reporting-und-tracking/
Data processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can withdraw this consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. The lawfulness of data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
If you do not want your data analyzed by CleverReach, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide a corresponding link for this purpose in every newsletter email.
The data you provided for the purpose of subscribing to our newsletter will be stored by us or our newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe. After you unsubscribe, your data will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list. Data stored for other purposes will remain unaffected.
After you unsubscribe from our newsletter mailing list, your email address may be stored on a blacklist by us or our newsletter service provider if this is necessary to prevent future mailings. The data on the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be combined with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements for sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

YouTube with enhanced privacy
This website embeds videos from YouTube. The operator of the site is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
We use YouTube in enhanced privacy mode. According to YouTube, this mode prevents YouTube from storing information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. However, enhanced privacy mode does not necessarily prevent data from being shared with YouTube partners. For example, YouTube establishes a connection to the Google DoubleClick network regardless of whether you watch a video.
As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. This informs the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you allow YouTube to directly associate your browsing behavior with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
Furthermore, after a video starts playing, YouTube may store various cookies on your device or use similar recognition technologies (e.g., device fingerprinting). This allows YouTube to obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to compile video statistics, improve user-friendliness, and prevent fraud.
Additional data processing operations may be triggered after a YouTube video starts, over which we have no control.
The use of YouTube is in our legitimate interest in presenting our online content in an appealing way. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG), insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Vimeo also receives your IP address. However, we have configured Vimeo so that it will not track your user activity or set cookies.
The use of Vimeo is in our legitimate interest in presenting our online content in an appealing way. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR; this consent can be revoked at any time.
Data transfers to the USA are based on the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses and, according to Vimeo, on "legitimate business interests." Details can be found here: https://vimeo.com/privacy .

The use of Google Maps is in our legitimate interest in presenting our online services in an appealing manner and ensuring that the locations we specify on the website are easy to find. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG), insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG.

Google reCAPTCHA
We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter “reCAPTCHA”) on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
reCAPTCHA is used to verify whether data entry on this website (e.g., in a contact form) is done by a human or an automated program. To do this, reCAPTCHA analyzes the website visitor's behavior based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the visitor enters the website. For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various pieces of information (e.g., IP address, the visitor's time spent on the website, or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.
The reCAPTCHA analysis runs entirely in the background. Website visitors are not notified that an analysis is taking place.
The data is stored and analyzed based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web services from abusive automated access and spam. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG), insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.

If the data is relevant for tax or commercial law purposes, it will be stored for ten years in accordance with Section 147 of the German Fiscal Code (AO) and for six years in accordance with Section 257 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), starting from the end of the year in which the data was collected. The retention period is otherwise governed by resmio's data protection policy. Further information can be found here : https://www.resmio.com/datenschutzerklaerung/
c) Legal basis
The legal basis for data processing is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR as well as Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, insofar as the data is used for the processing of contracts.
d) Right to object and erasure:
Since there are standardized retention periods and the data must be stored and processed for contract fulfillment, an objection or erasure is not possible. However, the data subject can prevent data processing by discontinuing the use of this tool. Further information on data protection and the storage of personal data at resmio can be found in resmio's privacy policy at https://www.resmio.com/datenschutzerklaerung/ .
Linguistics
To make our content more accessible and available worldwide, we provide parts of this website in additional languages. For this purpose, we use the translation service "Linguise." Linguise processes the HTML content of our pages for machine translation, stores the generated translations in a cache, and delivers them via its own infrastructure. The processed content may contain personal data if it appears on our pages (e.g., names on team pages, in quotes, or project reports). Linguise sometimes uses subcontractors for translation (including neural machine translation providers such as Google Cloud Translation).
Categories of data processed:
- Usage and communication data (e.g., IP address, time of request, requested URL, referrer, user agent, browser language settings),
- Page content of the accessed page (if it contains personal data),
- Technical identifiers for delivery/error analysis,
- If applicable, cookie/local storage entries to store your language preference.
Purposes and legal basis:
- Provision of multilingual content and improvement of user-friendliness (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR – legitimate interest).
- Storing/reading your language preference on your device, insofar as technically necessary, is based on Section 25 para. 2 no. 2 TTDSG. If, in addition, non-essential cookies/similar technologies are used for statistics/marketing, this only occurs with your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 para. 1 TTDSG). You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future via our consent management tool.
Recipients and transfers to third countries:
- Recipients: Linguise (data processor) and its sub-processors (e.g., translation infrastructure providers/CDNs). Transfers to third countries outside the EEA (including the USA) may occur. In these cases, we base the transfer on appropriate safeguards (in particular, standard contractual clauses pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR) and implement additional safeguards where necessary.
Storage duration:
Translations are cached by Linguise until the original content is changed or the underlying service terminates. Log and system data are deleted according to the provider's policy.
8. Own services
Handling of applicant data
We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g., by email, post, or via our online application form). Below, we inform you about the scope, purpose, and use of your personal data collected during the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing, and use of your data will be carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other legal provisions, and that your data will be treated with strict confidentiality.
Scope and purpose of data collection
When you submit an application to us, we process your associated personal data (e.g., contact and communication data, application documents, notes from job interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary for deciding whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) (initiation of an employment relationship), Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b of the GDPR (general contract initiation), and – if you have given your consent – Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter a of the GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time. Within our company, your personal data will only be shared with individuals involved in processing your application.
If your application is successful, the data you have submitted will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 BDSG and Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b GDPR for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship.
Data retention period
If we are unable to offer you a position, you decline a job offer, or you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you submitted for up to six months from the conclusion of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application) based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). After this period, the data will be deleted and any physical application documents destroyed. This retention serves, in particular, as evidence in the event of legal proceedings. If it becomes apparent that the data will be required after the six-month period (e.g., due to threatened or pending legal proceedings), deletion will only occur once the purpose for the extended retention no longer applies.
Longer storage may also take place if you have given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or if statutory retention obligations preclude deletion.
Inclusion in the applicant pool
If we do not make you a job offer, we may be able to add you to our applicant pool. If you are added, all documents and information from your application will be transferred to the applicant pool so that we can contact you if suitable vacancies arise.
Inclusion in the applicant pool is based solely on your explicit consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). Providing this consent is voluntary and is not related to the current application process. You may withdraw your consent at any time. In this case, your data will be permanently deleted from the applicant pool, unless there are legal grounds for retention.
The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent has been given.
