Inquiries on issues related to data protection policy can be addressed to dpo@gindumac.com or by post to GINDUMAC GmbH, Trippstadter Straße 110, D-67663 Kaiserslautern.
You have the right to make a complaint at any time to a supervisory authority. The "Die Bundesbeauftragte für den Datenschutz und die Informationsfreiheit" (BfDI) is the lead data protection supervisory authority for GM as a data controller based in Germany.
Insofar as the user or customer has granted his consent for the use, processing and transmission of his personal data for marketing purposes (e.g. electronic newsletter or offer mailing, use of Google Analytics) he can revoke this at all times with effect for the future without complying with a certain form or deadline. In addition, the user or customer – insofar as GM uses his data within a framework as permitted by law for example for postal marketing measures - can also object to this use. In both cases the user or customer has to send the revocation to:
GINDUMAC GmbH Trippstadter Straße 110 D-67663 Kaiserslautern Tel.: +49 631 343738 20 E-mail: contact@gindumac.com
After receipt of the revocation GM will use the personal data of the user or customer exclusively for processing the respective order or the purchase order and refrain from sending further advertising means.
In order to process the order or the purchase order it is necessary to also send personal data of the user or customer to third parties (e.g. to suppliers, freight forwarders, commercial credit insurers and, if applicable, also to the respective factor). The data forwarded to third parties will be exclusively used hereby in order to fulfil the obligations or tasks for which they are responsible or to secure the financing of the respective business. Transmissions to state institutions or authorities shall only be carried out within the framework of mandatory national regulations.
The personal data of the user or customers will only be stored for as long as this is necessary for the provision of the services by GM. In an individual case a data storage beyond this can be necessary owing to statutory or legal obligations.
GM has set up technical and organisational safety precautions in order to protect the data of the user or customer, in particular against loss, manipulation or unauthorised access. GM shall regularly adjust its safety precautions to the continuous technical development.
The user or customer has the right at all times to request free information about the data stored at GM relating to him. If the data should be stored incorrectly or unjustifiably GM will correct, block or delete it. The user or customer is obliged to report changes to his data to GM.

Credit risks exist within the scope of the financing possibilities offered by GM, which render it necessary that GM will reinsure itself with regard to the solvency of its customers and obtain credit rating information. GM will for this purpose send the customer’s data, if applicable still before conclusion of the contract, for the purpose of the credit check to various credit agencies of its choice, such as e.g.:
- Creditsafe Deutschland GmbH
Schreiberhauer Straße 30
10317 Berlin
http://www.creditsafede.com
- CEG Creditreform Boniversum GmbH
(Germany)
Hellerbergstraße 11

and request these for information and creditworthiness information based on mathematical-statistical procedures (score value) insofar as this is necessary in order to safeguard justified interests of GM and the concerns of the future customer, which are worthy of protection, are not impaired. Information about conduct of the customer that is not as per contract (e.g. with credit card abuse) will, if applicable, also be sent. The credit agencies shall store the data sent to you in order to be able to provide the companies affiliated with them information for the assessment of the creditworthiness of the customer, shall only make these data available to their contractual partners, insofar as these credibly present a justified interest in the data transmission; the data will be exclusively used for this purpose.
The customer can, as a rule, receive information himself from the aforementioned credit agencies about the data stored with regard to his person.
GM shall, moreover, send the data of the customer before conclusion of the contract for the purpose of the identity check to the credit agency (agencies) selected by it, following which the credit agency (agencies) determine the degree of correspondence of the personal details stored in their company with the data collected by the customer from GM in terms of percentages. Based on the correspondence rates determined by the credit agencies GM can accordingly recognise whether a person is stored under the address provided by him in the data stocks of the respective credit agency (agencies) and is more than 18 years old.
A further exchange of data or a transmission of deviating addresses as well as a storage of the customer’s data in the data stocks of the respective credit agency do not take place.
It is solely stored for the purpose of proof of the fact of the check at the credit agency (agencies) involved. More detailed information is available under the aforementioned Internet addresses.
