We therefore wish to provide you with an overview of the information that Holdapple collects and how it is processed. These comments are intended to inform you about how you may prevent your personal details from being processed when you visit our Web site and advertisements on the Internet. In order to ensure that you are familiar with the current version, you should visit this page regularly as we reserve the right to adapt the data protection information provided here to legal and actual requirements. Personal details Holdapple will not collect personal details, e.g. names, addresses, telephone numbers and email addresses, if they are not provided to us voluntarily. We shall only store and use such personal details provided to us for marketing purposes in the event that you explicitly provide your permission for us to do so. In the event of your providing permission, we will also be permitted to use your personal details to determine how you use our products and to establish your habits regarding the use of our Internet site. We shall furthermore also be entitled to combine the information provided with information in the public domain and with information procured from other sources, including such information you have provided to other companies and organisations with permission that such information be forwarded. All such information will help us, for example, improve our products, our Internet presentation and our advertising measures. We will also be entitled to forward your information to such companies that execute the corresponding tasks on our behalf. This will only happen, however, if these companies have undertaken to use your information only for the purposes we specify and are also able to ensure the corresponding protection of your details. If you do not wish us to collect personal details, then please refrain from clicking the declaration of permission on the pages on which the opportunity to do so is provided. If you wish us to delete any details pertaining to your person that are already in our possession, please inform us via the corresponding email address to be found at the end of this declaration.

If a child has provided us with personal details, we would request the parents or the child's guardian to inform us accordingly if the information is to be removed from our records. The corresponding email address is located at the end of this declaration. Technical data In some cases we may collect information about you that does not relate to your person??.
