DATA COLLECTION and PROCESSING
Purpose of processing, transfer of data in connection with the use of services/offers of www.kastas.com and www.seal-link.com
The use of the online services offered by Kastas Sealing Technologies AS and Kastas Sealing Technologies Europe GmbH requires the setting up of a customer account in the website. The information you have given in the registration form is stored in our system with the purpose of continuity of the services we offer through our website. The legal basis for the setting up and allocation of user accounts is Art. 6 (1) b GDPR.

Processing of data in connection with the use of our website - contact form

If you send us a request via email or via our contact form, we will collect the data provided by you for processing and responding to such request. This information will remain stored for verification purposes.

The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 letter f GDPR.

Processing of personal data by Kastas for marketing purposes:
Kastas and service providers engaged by it (e.g. letter shops) will use your name, email and address that were collected through our website forms and registrations, exhibition leads and other direct inquiries, for the purposes of customer engagement, updating information on new product and services by the use of newsletters and hard-copy delivery by post of printed brochures and corporate magazine.
We will basically stop processing your personal data as soon as you unsubscribe from our services or just receiving an e-mail from you to dataprotection@kastas.com
The legal basis of email marketing: Art. 6 (1) a GDPR and Sec. 7 para. 3 UWG

Processing of data upon access to our website – logfile data
When you access our website/app, some pieces of general information will automatically be collected. This information (server log files) includes e.g. the type of your browser, the operating system you use, the domain name of your internet service provider and similar information. In addition, your IP address will be transferred and used for the purpose of providing the service requested by you. This information is technically required to accurately provide the contents of websites you call up and are inevitably collected when using the internet.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 f GDPR.

Use of Google Maps:
Our website uses Google Maps, a service offered by Google, Inc. This allows us to display interactive maps, to ensure easy traceability of the locations indicated on our website, and to facilitate convenient use of the map functions.

This application is retrieved directly from the Google servers. Google will, therefore, receive the IP-address currently assigned to you. When you access the function, Google will receive the information that you have called up our respective subsite. If, to what extent and for how long your IP address is stored and internally used by Google is beyond our knowledge. The legal basis for the use of this service is Art. 6 (1) sentence 1, letter f GDPR.
If you are registered with a Google service, Google can assign your visit to your user account. Even if you are not registered with Google or not logged in, it is possible that Google may store your IP address and use it for profiling purposes. Google will store the data collected about you as a user profile to be used for purposes of advertising, market research and/or the demand-oriented design of its websites. In particular, this evaluation takes place (also for the user not logged in) to display demand-oriented advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of a user profile by Google.

Please note that data processing by Google may be performed outside the EU/EEA. Google will process your personal data also in the U.S. and has accepted the regulations of the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework . For further information on data protection by Google please go to https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy .

Use of YouTube:
Our website uses plug-ins of the website YouTube, which is operated by Google. The operator of the web pages is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, U.S.A.
When you visit one of our web pages that uses the YouTube plug-in, a connection will be established on the servers of YouTube. The YouTube server will receive information on which of our web pages you have visited.

If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube will be able to assign your browsing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
We use YouTube in the interest of presenting our online offers in an attractive way; the legal basis, therefore, is Art. 6 (1) letter f GDPR. We only collect information on the frequency of call-ups of the YouTube videos integrated in our website and will delete the respective data after 2 years.

For further information on the handling of user data please refer to the privacy policy of YouTube at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy .
