2. General information
2.1 General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website
If you1
have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis
of Art. 6 para. 1 litre. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 litres. a GDPR, insofar as special
categories of data pursuant to Art. 9 para. 1 of the GDPR.
In the event of express consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data
processing is also carried out on the basis of Art. 49 para. 1 lit. a GDPR
If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access to information on your
end device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), data processing is also carried out on the
basis of Section 25 para. 1 TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time.
If your data is required for the performance of the contract or for the implementation of
pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b
GDPR.
Furthermore, we process your data insofar as this is necessary to fulfil a legal
obligation on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR.
Data processing can also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant
to Art. 6 para. 1 litre. GDPR regulations.
The following paragraphs of this privacy policy provide information on the relevant legal
bases in each individual case.
2.2 General information on storage duration
Unless a specific storage period is specified in this privacy policy, your personal data
will remain with us until the purpose for data processing ceases to apply.
If you make a legitimate request for deletion or withdraw your consent to data
processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons
for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law). In
this latter case, the data will be deleted after these reasons cease to apply.
2.3 General information on data transfer to the USA and other third countries
We sometimes use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries
(countries outside the EEA) that may not offer and take into account a comparable high
level of protection in accordance with the GDPR requirements in the EU. If these tools
are active, your personal data may be transferred to these third countries and
processed there.
For example, U.S. companies are required to disclose personal data to security
authorities without you being able to take legal action against this. It cannot therefore
be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. intelligence services) may process, evaluate and
permanently store your data on US servers for monitoring purposes. We have no
influence on these processing activities.
2.4 SSL or TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the
transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us
as the site operator.
You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the
browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol in your browser
line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third
parties.
3. Processing of personal data on this website

provision of our online offer by a professional provider (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).
Insofar as corresponding consent has been requested, processing takes place
exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 litre. a GDPR and Section 25 para. 1 TTDSG,
insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the

damage your end device. They are either temporarily stored on your end device for the
duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies). Session
cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain
stored on your end device until you delete them yourself or until they are automatically
deleted by your web browser. Cookies can originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (socalled third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain
services from third-party companies within websites (e.g. cookies for processing

provide certain functions requested by you (e.g. for the shopping cart function) or to
optimise the website (e.g. cookies for measuring the web audience) (necessary
cookies) are set on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 litre. f GDPR, unless another legal basis
is specified.
The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies that are necessary for
the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. If consent to the
storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested,
processing takes place exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 para. 1 litre. a
GDPR and Section 25 para. 1 TDDDG); Consent can be revoked at any time.

If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your request, including all resulting
personal data (name, request), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of

3.8 Marketing mailings
We use Emarsys to conduct our marketing mailings. The service provider is SAP
Deutschland SE & Co. KG, Hasso-Plattner-Ring 7, 69190 Walldorf, Baden Germany.
3.8.1 Purposes and categories of personal data processing
Aug. Winkhaus SE & Co. KG processes personal data for the purpose of sending
marketing mailings. When registering for marketing mailings and creating marketing
mailings, the following personal data will be processed, depending on the data you
provide to us:
• Title:
• Surname, first name
• Address
• Postcode
• Town / City
• E-mail address *
When you give your consent to receive our mailings and have completed the double
opt-in process to verify your email address, your personal data will be collected by
Emarsys.
Our mailings allow us to analyse the behaviour of mailing recipients. This can include
analysing how many recipients have opened the mailing and how often which link in the mailing was clicked. Conversion tracking can also be used to analyse whether a
predefined action has taken place after clicking on the link in the newsletter.
You can find Emarsys’ privacy policy here:
https://www.emarsys.com/privacy-policy/
3.8.2 Legal basis
If you have subscribed to marketing mailings, 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 marketing mailings. For this purpose, we provide a corresponding
link in each mailing. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out
remains unaffected by the revocation.
If you have not subscribed to marketing mailings, data processing is based on our
legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 litre. f GDPR) to promote existing customers. You can
unsubscribe from the marketing mailing at any time. For this purpose, we provide a
corresponding link in each mailing.
Data processing (evaluation of marketing mailings and success measurement) is
based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 litre. f GDPR) - subject to your consent
- to a secure and user-friendly procedure for our mailings and thus serves both our
business interests and your expectations in improving our mailings, products and
services.
3.8.3 Recipients or categories of recipients
The personal data processed within the framework of registration for marketing
mailings or for carrying out marketing mailings is processed by SAP Deutschland SE
& Co. KG, Hasso-Plattner-Ring 7, 69190 Walldorf, Baden Germany, on behalf of and
in accordance with the instructions of Aug. Winkhaus SE & Co. KG.
Personal data is generally only transferred to third parties if there is a legal basis for
this. This is the case in particular if the transfer serves to comply with legal
requirements under which we are obliged to provide information, report or disclose
data, you have given us your consent to do so or a balancing of interests justifies this.
3.8.4 General information on retention period
The data you store with us for the purpose of conducting marketing mailings will be
stored by us or the service provider (see above) until you unsubscribe from the
marketing mailing and deleted from the distribution list after unsubscribing from the
mailing. Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected by this.
After you have been removed from the distribution list, your e-mail address may be
stored on a blacklist by us or the service provider if this is necessary to prevent future
mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be
merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying
with the legal requirements when sending marketing mailings (legitimate interest within
the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is not limited in time.
You can object to storage if your interests override our legitimate interests.
4. Candidate data
The data required for the application process is submitted by the applicant (m/f/d) in
relation to a specific job advertisement or as an unsolicited application itself digitally,
by post or personally. The following data must be processed by you within the
framework of the application process: Title, name, date of birth, e-mail address, User
language, postal address and telephone numbers, degree, specialty, last educational
institution, information on current employment, professional experience and CV. In
addition, we process such data as is necessary for the processing of the application
process (correspondence with the applicant, written records from the interviews, etc.).
If you voluntarily provide us with additional information (e.g. by providing information
in the annexes you have attached), processing will take place in accordance with the
legal provisions.
4.1 Purpose and legal basis
The purpose of data processing is the selection of applicants for employment. There
are no plans to change this purpose. Any deviations require the separate consent of
the applicant.
The data is collected, stored and, if necessary, passed on by us to the extent necessary
to process an application for a specific purpose. The data is also collected, stored and
passed on for the purposes of pre-contractual measures at the request of the person
in question. The legal basis is Section 26(1) BDSG, Art. 6 para. 1 litre. b) (Initiation of
the employment contract) and Art. 88 GDPR. We process voluntary information within
the framework of an application on the basis of Section 26 para. 2 BDSG, Art. 6 para.
1 litre. a) (consent) and Art. 88 GDPR.
When an employment contract is signed, the documents are added to the personnel
file. This file is stored securely by the human resources department.
Personal data is generally only passed on within the company group to persons or
departments involved in the application process. Disclosure to third parties only takes place if and insofar as there is a specific legal basis for this and/or in cases where a
state investigating authority requests data on the basis of these legal provisions.
Further processing will only take place if the applicant within the meaning of Art. 6 para.
1 litre. a GDPR has specifically consented to this processing in terms of type and
scope.
The information is never passed on to third countries. In all other respects, reference
is made to Section 2.3. of this data protection declaration.
We take systematised technical and organisational measures to ensure the protection
of personal data. These measures are always adapted to the current state of the art.
4.2 Storage period
In principle, applicant data will be deleted 6 months after the end of the application process.
The provisions of the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG) form the basis for the 6-month
retention period. If we are unable to offer you a suitable position at the time of your application,
we may, after completion of the application process, offer to include your data in the Winkhaus
applicant pool. The Winkhaus applicant pool serves to maintain contact with you for
professional purposes and to take your person into account in future job placements. Your
data will only be processed for this purpose if you expressly consent to this after receiving a
separate e-mail from us. This consent can be revoked at any time with effect for the future -
even without stating reasons. If you have received travel expense reimbursements from the
Winkhaus Group within the framework of an application process, the applicant data collected
within the framework of travel expense reimbursements (in particular name, address, bank
details, amount) will be stored for no longer than 10 years to the end of the calendar year in
which the claim arose.
Once these terms have elapsed, the data collected is deleted, or blocked if it is not
possible to delete the information in the individual case.
5. Analytics tools and advertising
5.1 Google Analytics
5.1.1 Overview
Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyse the behaviour of visitors to
the website. The website operator receives various usage data, such as page views,
length of visit, operating systems used and origin of the user. This data is assigned to
the respective end device of the user. No assignment to a user ID takes place.
Furthermore, we can use Google Analytics to, among other things, Record your mouse
and scroll movements and clicks. Google Analytics also uses different modelling
approaches to complement the collected data sets and uses machine learning
technologies in data analysis.
Google Analytics uses technologies that enable the recognition of the user for the
purpose of analysing user behaviour (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). The
information collected by Google about your use of this website is usually transferred to
a Google server in the USA and stored there.
The use of this service is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 litre. a
GDPR and Section 25 para. 1 TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time.
Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU

agreement between the European Union and the USA that aims to ensure compliance
with European data protection standards for data processing in the USA. Every
company certified under the DPF undertakes to comply with these data protection
standards. Further information on this can be obtained from the provider at the
following link:
https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/participant/5780
5.1.2 IP anonymization
Google Analytics IP anonymization is activated. This means that your IP address will
be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other
contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being
transferred to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred
to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there. On behalf of the operator of this
website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the
website, compiling reports on website activity, and providing other services relating to
website activity and internet usage towards the website operator. The IP address
transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics will not be
merged with other Google data.
5.1.3 Browser plugin
You can prevent the collection and processing of your data by Google by downloading
and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link:
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

Google’s privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de
5.1.4 Demographics in Google Analytics
This website uses the 'demographic features' function of Google Analytics in order to
be able to display suitable advertisements to website visitors within the Google
advertising network. This allows reports to be created that contain statements about
the age, gender and interests of the site visitors. This data comes from interest-based
advertising by Google and from visitor data from third-party providers. This data cannot
be assigned to a specific person. You can deactivate this function at any time via the ad settings in your Google account
or generally prohibit the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in the
point “Objection to data collection”.
5.1.5 Google Signals
We use Google signals. When you visit our website, Google Analytics collects, among
other things, Your location, search history and YouTube history as well as demographic
data (visitor data). This data can be used for personalised advertising with the help of
Google Signal. If you have a Google account, Google Signal’s visitor data is linked to
your Google account and used for personalised advertising messages. The data is
also used to compile anonymous statistics on the user behaviour of our users.
5.2 Google Ads
The website operator uses Google Ads. Google Ads is an online advertising program
of Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Ads allows us to display advertisements in the Google search engine or on
third-party websites when the user enters certain search terms on Google (keyword
targeting). In addition, targeted advertisements can be displayed based on the user
data available at Google (e.g. location data and interests) (target group targeting). As
website operators, we can evaluate this data quantitatively by analysing, for example,
which search terms led to the display of our advertisements and how many
advertisements led to corresponding clicks.
The use of this service is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 litre. a
GDPR and Section 25 para. 1 TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

Google Ads Remarketing allows us to assign people who interact with our online
offering to certain target groups in order to then display interest-based advertising in
the Google advertising network (remarketing or retargeting).
Furthermore, the advertising target groups created with Google Ads Remarketing can
be linked to the cross-device functions of Google. In this way, interest-based,
personalised advertising messages that have been adapted to you based on your
previous usage and browsing behaviour on one end device (e.g. mobile phone) can
also be displayed on another of your end devices (e.g. tablet or PC).
If you have a Google account, you can object to personalised advertising under the
following link:
https://adssettings.google.com/anonymous?hl=de .
The use of this service is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 litre. a

addresses) from our customer lists to Google. If the customers concerned are Google
users and logged in to their Google account, they will be shown suitable advertising
messages within the Google network (e.g. on YouTube, Gmail or in the search engine).

This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. The provider is Google Ireland Limited
("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
With the help of Google conversion tracking, Google and we can recognise whether
the user has carried out certain actions. For example, we can evaluate which buttons
on our website have been clicked on and how often, and which products have been
viewed or purchased particularly frequently. This information is used to generate
conversion statistics. We find out the total number of users who clicked on our ads and
what actions they took. We do not receive any information that would enable us to
identify the user. Google itself uses cookies or similar recognition technologies for
identification.

advertisements may be displayed in Google search results or in advertising banners
linked to DoubleClick. In order to be able to display interest-based advertising to users,
DoubleClick must be able to recognise the respective viewer and assign his/her visited
websites, clicks and other information about user behaviour. For this purpose,
DoubleClick uses cookies or comparable recognition technologies (e.g. device
fingerprinting). The collected information is combined into a pseudonymous user profile
in order to display interest-based advertising to the relevant user. Google DoubleClick is used in the interest of targeted advertising measures. This
constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Insofar

5.6 Facebook pixel
This website uses Facebook’s visitor action pixels for conversion measurement. The
provider of this service is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square,
Dublin 2, Ireland. According to Facebook, however, the data collected is also
transferred to the USA and other third countries.
This means that the behaviour of the website visitors can be tracked after they have
been forwarded to the provider’s website by clicking on a Facebook advertisement.
This allows the effectiveness of Facebook advertisements to be evaluated for statistical
and market research purposes and future advertising measures to be optimised. The
data collected is anonymous to us as the operator of this website; we cannot draw any
conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed
by Facebook so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and
Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the
Facebook data use policy. This allows Facebook to display advertisements on
Facebook pages as well as outside Facebook. As the website operator, we have no
influence on this use of data.
Facebook pixels are used on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 letter f GDPR. The website
operator has a legitimate interest in effective advertising measures, including social
media. Insofar as corresponding consent has been requested, processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 litre. a GDPR and Section 25 para. 1 TTDSG,
insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the
user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG.
Consent can be revoked at any time.
Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU
Commission. In all other respects, Section 2.3 of this data protection declaration
applies.
You can find more information here:
https://www.facebook.com/legal/EU_data_transfer_addendum and https://dede.facebook.com/help/566994660333381
Insofar as personal data is collected on our website and forwarded to Facebook using
the tool described here, we and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square,
Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland are jointly responsible for this data processing
(Art. 26 GDPR). The joint responsibility is limited exclusively to the collection of data
and its transfer to Facebook. Processing by Facebook after forwarding is not part of
the joint responsibility. The obligations incumbent upon us jointly have been set out in
an agreement on joint processing. The wording of the agreement can be found at:
https://www.facebook.com/legal/controller_addendum
In accordance with this agreement, we are responsible for providing data protection
information when using the Facebook tool and for the data protection-compliant

5.7 LinkedIn Insight Day
5.7.1 Overview
This website uses the LinkedIn Insight Tag. The provider of this service is LinkedIn
Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.
The LinkedIn Insight Tag provides us with information about visitors to our website. If
a website visitor is registered with LinkedIn, we can, among other things, analyse the
professional key data (e.g. career level, company size, country, location, industry and
job title) of our website visitors and thus better target our page to the respective target
groups.
We can also use LinkedIn Insight Tags to measure whether visitors to our websites
make a purchase or take another action (conversion measurement). The conversion
measurement can also be carried out across devices (e.g. from PC to tablet). LinkedIn
Insight Tag also offers a retargeting function with the help of which we can display
targeted advertising to visitors to our website outside the website, whereby, according
to LinkedIn, no identification of the advertiser takes place.
LinkedIn Insight is used on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 letter f GDPR. The website
operator has a legitimate interest in effective advertising measures, including social
media. Insofar as corresponding consent has been requested, processing takes place
exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 litre. a GDPR and Section 25 para. 1 TTDSG,
insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the
user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG.
Consent can be revoked at any time. Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU
Commission. In all other respects, Section 2.3 of this data protection declaration
applies.
You can find more information here: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/l/dpa and
https://www.linkedin.com/legal/l/eu-sccs
LinkedIn itself also collects so-called log files (URL, referrer URL, IP address, device
and browser properties and time of access). The IP addresses are shortened or (if
used to reach LinkedIn members across devices) hashed (pseudonymized). The direct
identifiers of LinkedIn members will be deleted by LinkedIn after seven days. The
remaining pseudonymized data will then be deleted within 180 days.
As the website operator, we cannot assign the data collected by LinkedIn to specific
individuals. LinkedIn will store the collected personal data of website visitors on its
servers in the USA and use it as part of its own advertising measures. Details can be
found in LinkedIn’s privacy policy at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacypolicy#choices-oblig

will be collected and processed by us and the provider of the respective conference

address and/or your telephone number). The Conference Tools also process the
duration of the conference, the start and end (time) of participation in the conference,
the number of participants and other “context information” related to the

We use hintbox to provide a digital whistleblower system. The provider is lawcode
GmbH, Universitätsstraße 3, 56070 Koblenz, Germany.
9.1 Purposes of processing personal data
Aug. Winkhaus SE & Co. KG processes the following types of personal data within
the framework of entering and processing reports in the internal reporting system:
• Information that personally identifies the whistleblower, such as first and last
name, gender, address, telephone number and email address;
• Employee characteristic for Aug. Winkhaus SE & Co. KG;
• Information about data subjects, i.e. natural persons identified in a report as a
person who has committed the infringement or with whom the identified
person is associated. Such information includes, for example, first and last
name, gender, address, telephone number and e-mail address or other
information that allows identification;
• Information about infringements that may allow conclusions to be drawn about
a natural person.
page 36 of 43
Aug. Winkhaus SE & Co. KG processes the personal data for the purpose of
investigating reports in order to prevent, detect and/or take follow-up measures against
violations of applicable law or company policies (such as measures to check the validity
of the allegations made in the report and, where applicable, to address the reported
violation, including through internal investigations, investigations, criminal prosecution
measures, measures to (re) recover funds or close the proceedings).
9.2 Legal basis
We only process information that identifies the whistleblower personally if the
whistleblower has obtained consent to do so pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 litre. a GDPR
has issued. Accordingly, processing is lawful only if the data subject has given his or
her consent to the processing of the personal data concerning him or her for one or
more specific purposes.
We process information on employee characteristics, information on data subjects and
other information that allows inferences to be drawn to natural persons on the basis of
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Accordingly, processing is lawful if the processing is
necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the controller or a third party, unless the
interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject that require the
protection of personal data override.
Depending on the specific case to be examined, our legitimate interest is in processing
reports in order to be able to take follow-up measures, such as measures to check the
validity of the allegations made in the report and, if necessary, to take action against
the reported violation, including through internal investigations, investigations, criminal
prosecution measures, measures for (re)collection of funds or completion of the
procedure. Whether the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data
subject conflict with such data processing will be examined on a case-by-case basis -
including with regard to the breach.
Where applicable, we process personal data of employees on the basis of Section 26
para. 1 sentence 2 BDSG. According to this, personal data of employees within the
meaning of Section 26 para. 8 BDSG for the detection of criminal offences, if there are
page 37 of 43
actual indications to be documented that the data subject has committed a criminal
offence in the employment relationship, the processing is necessary for the detection
and the employee’s legitimate interest in the exclusion of processing does not outweigh
this, in particular if the nature and extent are not disproportionate with regard to the
occasion.
9.3 Recipients or categories of recipients
The personal data processed within the framework of a report is processed by lawcode
GmbH, Universitätsstraße 3, 56070 Koblenz, on behalf of and in accordance with the
instructions of Aug. Winkhaus SE & Co. KG.
Personal data is generally only transferred to third parties if there is a legal basis for
this. This is the case in particular if the transfer serves to comply with legal
requirements under which we are obliged to provide information, report or disclose
data, you have given us your consent to do so or a balancing of interests justifies this.
In addition, external service providers, such as external data centres or
telecommunications providers, process personal data on our behalf as processors.
Depending on the area of responsibility for the report and for the effective initiation of
follow-up measures, the personal data may be passed on to our correspondingly
responsible specialist departments.
We may also disclose the personal data to state security and/or law enforcement
authorities, other competent authorities and/or persons subject to confidentiality
obligations, such as auditors/lawyers.
9.4 General information on the retention period
Data is generally stored until the follow-up measures have been completed. As a rule,
the data from a report is deleted after 2 months after the procedure has been finally
concluded, unless the initiation of further legal steps requires further storage (e.g.
initiation of criminal proceedings or disciplinary proceedings). Personal data in
connection with reports will be deleted by us immediately if we consider it to be
obviously unfounded.
9.5 Information pursuant to Art. 13 para. 2 lit. e GDPR
The provision of data via a report is neither contractually prescribed nor required for
the conclusion of a contract. Depending on the individual case, there may be legal
obligations to provide us with a report. However, the data must be processed in order
for the report to be processed and investigated appropriately.

this. This is the case in particular if the transfer serves to comply with legal
requirements under which we are obliged to provide information, report or disclose
data, you have given us your consent to do so or a balancing of interests justifies this.

telecommunications providers, process personal data on our behalf as processors.
