The data protection declaration applies to all processing of personal data carried out by us within the framework of Provision of our services and in particular on Dentalcare.global.

Personal data

Personal data are individual details about personal or factual circumstances of a specific or identifiable natural person, for example: name, address, telephone number, date of birth, citizenship
If any personal data are entered on the website, this is done voluntarily. This may be the case when registering for sending a message by using the contact form or sending an e-mail. The data you voluntarily transfer are processed and used exclusively for the designated purpose.

Use and disclosure of personal data

If data are disclosed to any external service providers within the scope of processing, they are stored in Germany on especially protected servers. The company Hetzner Online GmbH is our hosting partner. Only especially authorised persons, who are responsible for the technical or editorial maintenance of the servers, can access any personal information.
We only disclose your personal data to third parties if:

• according to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, you have given us your express consent to do this,
• according to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, the disclosure is necessary to assert, exercise or defend any legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in not disclosing your data,
• according to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. c GDPR, any legal obligation exists for the disclosure, and
• according to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. b GDPR, this is necessary to process contractual relationships with you.

When transferring data over the Internet, such as e-mail communication, we expressly point out that we cannot guarantee security; this means unauthorised access by third parties cannot safely be ruled out.

Analysis of user data

The tracking measures listed below and used by us are implemented on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

Cookies

Session cookies

We use cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies stored on your computer by your browser. These cookies process certain specific information about you, such as your browser, location data, or IP address.

This processing makes our website more user-friendly, efficient, and secure, allowing us, for example, to display our website in different languages or to offer a shopping cart function.

Third-party cookies

If necessary, our website may also use cookies from companies with whom we cooperate for the purpose of advertising, analyzing, or improving the features of our website.

Please refer to the following information for details, in particular for the legal basis and purpose of such third-party collection and processing of data collected through cookies.

Disabling cookies

You can refuse the use of cookies by changing the settings on your browser. Likewise, you can use the browser to delete cookies that have already been stored. However, the steps and measures required vary, depending on the browser you use. If you have any questions, please use the help function or consult the documentation for your browser or contact its maker for support. Browser settings cannot prevent so-called flash cookies from being set. Instead, you will need to change the setting of your Flash player. The steps and measures required for this also depend on the Flash player you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or consult the documentation for your Flash player or contact its maker for support.

If you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, not all of the functions on our site may be fully usable.

Use of cookies

The internet pages of Dentalcare.global uses cookies to save search requests and to adapt individual areas of the content to your interests. Cookies are text files that are stored locally in the cache of your Internet browser. Cookies enable your Internet browser to be recognised. Dentalcare.global does not collect any personal data via cookies; this means that all functions of the Internet pages can also be called up without cookies. If you do not want Dentalcare.global to recognise your computer, please set your browser so that cookies are blocked or erased directly from the hard disk or at least warned of cookie storage. You can install a browser plugin, such as at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Google Analytics

For statistical purposes and to adapt the website to changing user needs, the Dentalcare.global website uses the web analysis service Google Analytics by Google Inc. (https://www.google.de/intl/de/about/) (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter „Google“). The information is used to evaluate the use of the website, to generate reports about the website activities and to provide further services associated with the use of the website and the Internet.

If required by law to do so or if third parties process this data on behalf of the company, this information may also be transferred to third parties. The data collected with the analysis service are not used to personally identify the visitor to our Internet pages and is not combined with any personal data on the bearer of a possible pseudonym.

Prior to transfer, however, Google will shorten your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other countries party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area if IP anonymisation is activated on this website. The IP address transferred by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.

The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website, such as browser type / version, operating system used, referrer URL (the previously visited page), host name of the accessing computer (IP address), time of the server request, are transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case not all functions of this website may be used in full.

In addition, you can prevent Google from collecting data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the following link in the browser plug-in (tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout).

To guarantee an anonymous collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking), Google Analytics has been extended by the code „gat._anonymizeIp();” on the Dentalcare.global website.

Google WebFonts

Google WebFonts, i.e. external fonts by Google, LLC., https://www.google.com/fonts. The integration of Google WebFonts is done by a server call on Google (usually in the USA). For Google’s privacy policy, visit https://policies.google.com/privacy and an opt-out option is available at https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated.

Google reCAPTCHA

To secure and protect our website for you and for us we use Google reCAPTCHA from Google Inc. The company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services in Europe. With reCAPTCHA we can determine if you really are a real human being and not a robot or other spam software. We understand spam to mean any unwanted information that is sent to us electronically, unsolicited. With the classic CAPTCHAS, you usually had to solve text or image puzzles to check them. With reCAPTCHA from Google, we don’t have to bother you with such puzzles most of the time. In most cases, it is sufficient if you simply tick the box and confirm that you are not a bot. With the new Invisible reCAPTCHA version, you don’t even have to check the box. You can find out exactly how this works and, above all, what data is used for this in the course of this data protection declaration.

Font Awesome

We use Font Awesome from the American company Fonticons (307 S. Main St., Suite 202, Bentonville, AR 72712, USA) on our website. When you visit one of our websites, the Font Awesome web font (specifically icons) is loaded via the Font Awesome Content Delivery Network (CDN). The texts or fonts and icons are displayed appropriately on every device.

Icons are playing an increasingly important role on websites. Font Awesome is a web font specially designed for web designers and web developers. With Font Awesome, for example, icons can be scaled and colored as desired using the style sheet language CSS. They replace old picture icons. Font Awesome CDN is the easiest way to upload icons or fonts to your website. All we had to do was embed a small line of code into our website.

SSL or TLS encryption

As the site operator, our website uses SSL encryption (Secure Socket Layer) for reasons of security and to protect the transfer of any confidential content that you send to us. This means that any data that you transfer via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the „https://“ address line of your browser and the lock symbol in the browser line.

Social networks

To make our website more attractive, we work together with platforms such as Facebook, Instagram or Pinterest. These services collect, process and use personal data independently and at their own discretion. For the „Share“ function, your browser establishes a direct connection to the servers of the respective social network (Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest or Whatsapp).

Facebook

We use the Facebook pixel from Facebook on our website. We have implemented code for this on our website. The Facebook pixel is a snippet of JavaScript code that loads a collection of functions that Facebook can use to track your user actions if you came to our website via Facebook ads. For example, when you purchase a product on our website, the Facebook pixel is triggered and stores your actions on our website in one or more cookies. These cookies enable Facebook to compare your user data (customer data such as IP address, user ID) with the data in your Facebook account. Then Facebook deletes this data again. The data collected is anonymous and cannot be viewed by us and can only be used in the context of placing advertisements. If you are a Facebook user yourself and are logged in, your visit to our website will automatically be assigned to your Facebook user account.

Facebook also processes your data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. This can be associated with various risks for the legality and security of data processing.

Facebook uses so-called standard contractual clauses (= Art. 46 Para. 2 and 3 GDPR) as the basis for data processing by recipients based in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, i.e. in particular in the USA) or data transfer there. Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) are templates provided by the EU Commission and are intended to ensure that your data also comply with European data protection standards if they are transferred to third countries (such as the USA) and stored there. Through these clauses, Facebook undertakes to comply with European data protection standards when processing your relevant data, even if the data is stored, processed and managed in the USA. These clauses are based on an implementation decision of the EU Commission. You can find the decision and the corresponding standard contractual clauses here: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dec_impl/2021/914/oj?locale=de

The Facebook data processing terms, which correspond to the standard contractual clauses, can be found at https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/dataprocessing.

If you want to learn more about Facebook’s privacy policy, we recommend the company’s own privacy policy at https://www.facebook.com/policy.php.

Instagram

We have integrated Instagram functions on our website. Instagram is a social media platform operated by Instagram LLC, 1601 Willow Rd, Menlo Park CA 94025, USA. Instagram has been a subsidiary of Meta Platforms Inc. since 2012 and is one of the Facebook products. Embedding Instagram content on our website is called embedding. This enables us to show you content such as buttons, photos or videos from Instagram directly on our website.

Pinterest

On our website we use buttons and widgets from the social media network Pinterest, from Pinterest Inc., 808 Brannan Street, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA. For the European area, the Irish company Pinterest Europe Ltd. (Palmerston House, 2nd Floor, Fenian Street, Dublin 2, Ireland) responsible for all data protection-related aspects.

Pinterest is a social network that specializes in graphics or photographs. The name is made up of the two words „pin“ and „interest“. Users can exchange information about various hobbies and interests via Pinterest and view the respective profiles with pictures openly or in defined groups.
