Cookies do not cause any damage to your end device, do not contain viruses, Trojans or other malware. In the cookie, information is stored that arises in each case in connection with the specific end device used.
The use of cookies can be consent-free and consent-requiring. Cookies that do not require consent are those that are necessary to make use of our online offer or that serve IT security (necessary cookies). The legal basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(f) DS-GVO. Cookies requiring consent, on the other hand, serve on the one hand to make the use of our offer more pleasant for you (preference cookies). For example, we use cookies to recognize that you have already visited individual pages of our website or that you have already logged into your customer account. In addition, we also use temporary cookies for the purpose of user-friendliness, which are stored on your terminal device for a certain specified period of time. If you visit our site again to use our services, it is automatically recognized that you have already been with us and which entries and settings you have made so that you do not have to enter them again.
On the other hand, we use cookies to statistically record the use of our website and to evaluate it for the purpose of optimizing our offer for you, as well as to display information tailored specifically to you (marketing and statistics cookies). The legal basis of data processing for cookies requiring consent is Article 6(1)(a) DS-GVO.

However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or a notice always appears before a new cookie is created. However, the complete deactivation of cookies may mean that you cannot use all the functions of our website. The storage period of cookies depends on their purpose and is not the same for everyone.
We recommend that if you use shared computers that are set to accept cookies, you always log out completely when finished.
You can view which cookies we currently use at any time here, as well as quickly and easily manage any consents you may have given.

8. duration of data storage

We generally only store your data for as long as is necessary for the respective purpose of data processing (e.g. processing your request or legal retention periods).
We store the data collected for the processing of the contract until the expiry of the legal or possible contractual warranty and guarantee rights. After expiration of this period, we retain the information of the contractual relationship required by commercial and tax law for the periods determined by law. For this period (regularly ten years from the conclusion of the contract), the data is processed again solely in the event of an audit by the tax authorities.
All data in connection with the implementation of a conciliation procedure is generally stored for up to ten years.
The duration of data storage for advertising purposes does not follow any rigid principles and is based on the question of whether storage is necessary for the advertising approach. In addition, we follow the principle of deleting data for advertising use after 4 years after the end of the contract or after 4 years after the end of the marketing efforts. Advertising objections are not deleted.

We store the data we process as part of the recruitment process for up to 6 months after completion of the application process.
In particularly justified cases, we also store data for longer periods, for example if a public authority requires this or if the data is needed for legal reasons, e.g. to provide evidence in a court case.

9. recipients outside the EU

We transfer your data to recipients in further third countries (if a corresponding adequacy decision of the European Commission exists regarding them) based contract and business partners. When conducting the arbitration process, no transfer of personal data collected in this context to third countries takes place. ClariLab is also subject to the legal powers of intervention of state authorities.

12. Analysis Tools and advertising

Matomo (formerly called Piwik)

This website uses the open-source web analysis service Matomo. Matomo uses technologies that make it possible to recognize the user across multiple pages with the aim of analyzing the user patterns (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). The information recorded by Matomo about the use of this website will be stored on our server. Prior to archiving, the IP address will first be anonymized.

Through Matomo, we are able to collect and analyze data on the use of our website-by-website visitors. This enables us to find out, for instance, when which page views occurred and from which region they came. In addition, we collect various log files (e.g. IP address, referrer, browser, and operating system 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 Sect. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the analysis of user patterns, in order to optimize the operator’s web offerings and advertising. If a corresponding agreement has been requested (e.g. an agreement to the storage of cookies), the processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR; the agreement can be revoked at any time.

IP Anonymization

For analysis with Matomo we use IP anonymization. Your IP address is shortened before the analysis, so that it is no longer clearly assignable to you.

Hosting

We host Matomo exclusively on our own servers, so all analytics data remains with us and is not shared.
