Privacy Statement
Applicability
This privacy statement informs users of the type, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personally identifiable data by the responsible provider NESTRO Lufttechnik GmbH, Paulus-Nettelnstroth-Platz, 07619 Schkölen 036694 410 [Info(at)nestro.com] on this website (hereinafter "the site").
The basic principles of data protection are specified in the German Federal Data Protection Act (FDPA) and the German Telemedia Act (GTA).
Data Protection Comissioner
The company has appointed the following person to act as data protection commissioner:
- Mr. Christian Gotter / c.gotter(at)nestro.de
Access data / server logfiles
The provider (or provider's webspace-provider respectively) collects data about every access to the site (so-called server logfiles). Access data includes:
Name of the accessed website, files, data and time of the access, amount of data transferred, report of successful access, browser type including version, the operating system of the user, referrer URL (the site visited before), IP-address and the provider from which the request originates.
The provider shall use the logged data solely for statistical analyses needed for the operation, security and optimization of the site. However, the provider reserves the right to retroactively review log data when specific indications suggest that there is a reasonable suspicion of illegal use.
Use of personally identifiable data
Personally identifiable data consists of information that allows identifying a person, meaning, data that can be traced back to one individual. This includes name, email address or the phone number. Data regarding preferences, hobbies, memberships or which websites were viewed by a person are also considered personally identifiable data.
Personally identifiable data will only be collected, used and forwarded by the provider when it is permitted by law or when users consent to such data collection.
Contact
When contacting the provider (e.g. by contact form or email), the user information is stored for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case follow-up questions should arise.
Comments and submissions
When users comment or leave other submissions on the blog their IP-address will be stored. This is done for the safety of the provider in case of someone posting illegal comments or content (insults, prohibited political propaganda, etc.). In such cases the provider can be subject to legal action due to such comments or content, and has therefore an interest in the identity of the author.
Embedded third party services and content
Sometimes this site will incorporate embedded third-party content such as videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, RSS feeds or images hosted on other websites. This always requires that the providers of such content (hereinafter referred to as "third-party") can see the IP address of the user. Without the IP address, they would not be able to send the content to the browser of the respective user. The IP address is therefore necessary for the presentation of such content. We strive to embed only content of which the respective providers use the IP address solely for content delivery. However, we have no control over the third-party provider storing the IP address, for example, for statistical purposes. Insofar as this is known to us we will inform users accordingly.
Cookies
Cookies are small files that make it possible to store on users' access devices (PC, smartphone or similar) specific information regarding that device. On one hand, they facilitate user-friendliness of websites and therefore benefit the users (e.g. when saving login data). On the other hand, they serve the purpose of collecting statistical website-use data which is then analyzed for the purpose of improving the website content. Users have control over the use of cookies. Most browsers have an option that allows to limit or entirely prevent the storage of cookies. However, it should be noted that the use and particularly the convenience features of the site will be limited without cookies.

Google Analytics
This site uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", text files that are stored on the user computers which enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about the use of this website by users is usually transferred to a server of Google in the US and stored there.
However, when IP anonymization is activated on this website, the IP address of users will be truncated in member states of the European Union or other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area by Google before being stored. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the US and truncated there. IP anonymization is activated on this website. On behalf of the operator of this site Google will use this information to evaluate the use of the site by users in order to compile reports on website activity and to render additional services regarding the use of the website and the Internet to the website operator.
The IP address submitted by your browser in the course of Google Analytics activity will not be merged with other data from Google. Users can refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in their browser software; however, this site advises users that in this case not all features of this websites will be available in their entirety.

Use of Facebook Social Plugins
This site uses social plugins ("plugins") of the social network facebook.com, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook"). The plugins are identifiable by a Facebook logo (white "f" on a blue tile, the terms "Like" or a "thumbs up" icon) or are identified by a label with the words "Facebook Social Plugin". A list of Facebook Social Plugins and their representations can be viewed here: developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.
When a user visits a web page of this site which contains such a plugin, his or her browser establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted to your browser by Facebook directly and then embedded into this website. The provider therefore has no influence on the scope of the data collected by Facebook with the plugin, and therefore informs users to the best of its knowledge: by integrating the plugin, Facebook receives the information that a user has accessed the corresponding page of the site. If the user is logged into Facebook, Facebook can associate the visit with his or her Facebook account. When users interact with the plugins, for example, by pressing the Like button or entering comments directly, the corresponding information is transmitted from their browser directly to Facebook and stored there. If a user is not a member of Facebook, there is still a possibility that Facebook becomes aware of his or her IP address and will subsequently store it. According to Facebook, only anonymized IP addresses are stored in Germany.
Purpose and scope of the data collection as well as the further processing and use of the data by Facebook and the corresponding rights and settings for the protection of the privacy of users are provided to users in the privacy statements of Facebook: www.facebook.com/about/privacy/ .
If a user is a Facebook member and does not want Facebook to collect data about him or her on this website which will then be associated with his or her Facebook account, the user must log off from Facebook before visiting this website.
Google AdSense
This site uses Google AdSense, a service for embedding commercial ads provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google AdSense uses so-called "cookies", text files that are stored on the user computers and which enable an analysis of the use of the website. Google AdSense uses so-called web beacons (invisible images). With these web beacons, information such as visitor traffic on the pages of this site can be analyzed.
The information generated by cookies and web beacons about the use of this website (including user IP addresses) and the delivery of advertising collateral is transferred to a server of Google in the US and stored there. Google can forward this information to Google contractors. However, Google will not associate your IP address with any other data stored by you.
Users can refuse the installation of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in their browser software; however, this site advises users that in this case not all features of this websites will be available in their entirety.
