Protecting your privacy is important to us. We are committed to handling your data transparently. Below, we explain what personal data is stored when you use this website and how it is handled. We also explain how to opt out of third-party services we use.
Protecting your privacy when processing personal data, as well as safeguarding all business data, is important to us and is taken into account in our business processes. We treat the personal data collected when you visit our online services confidentially and process it only in accordance with applicable laws.
The website provides general information about Holdener Gartenbau GmbH, its products and services, and career opportunities.
Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable individual, such as names, addresses, phone numbers, or email addresses that can be used to identify a person.
We collect, process, and use personal data (including IP addresses) only when necessary to fulfill a contract, take steps before entering into a contract, or protect our legitimate interests.
Whenever you use the internet, your internet browser automatically transmits certain information, which we store in what are known as log files.
We store log files for as long as necessary to identify disruptions and for security purposes (for example, to investigate attempted attacks). After that, they are deleted or anonymized. Log files that must be retained as evidence are exempt from deletion until the relevant incident has been fully resolved and may, in individual cases, be shared with law enforcement authorities. Storing log files serves our legitimate interests in ensuring that our website operates smoothly and correctly.
Log files contain, in particular, the following information:
Analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) are used on the Holdener Gartenbau GmbH website. The information collected about website usage is stored on the tool providers’ servers and is also combined in Snowflake with data from the ERP and POS systems for analysis purposes.
Analytics tools allow us to collect and analyze data about how website visitors use our website. This lets us find out when pages were viewed and from which regions.
Other data collected may include, for example, the names of files accessed, the browsers used, the features used, or the amount of time spent on the website.
Holdener Gartenbau GmbH has a legitimate interest in the anonymized analysis of user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising. If your prior consent was requested when you visited our website (e.g., consent to the storage of cookies), the data is processed on the basis of your consent, which you may withdraw at any time with future effect.
Detailed information about the analytics tools we use can be found in our
As a general rule, we only transfer your personal data to other controllers when this is necessary to fulfill a contract, when we or the third party have an overriding legitimate interest in the transfer, or when you have given your consent.
In addition, data may be transferred to other controllers if we are required to do so by law or by an enforceable order issued by a government authority or court.
We engage external service providers to perform tasks such as marketing services, development operations, data hosting, shipping, and debugging. We carefully select these providers and regularly monitor them, particularly to ensure they handle and protect the data stored with them appropriately. We require all service providers to maintain confidentiality and comply with legal requirements.
We may also transfer personal data to recipients based outside the EEA, in so-called third countries. Before transferring data, we ensure that the recipient has an adequate level of data protection through appropriate contractual agreements or, if necessary, that you have consented to the transfer.
Your data is primarily stored in Switzerland and Germany. Because we use various service providers, data is also stored in other EU countries and in the United States.
As a general rule, we store your data for as long as necessary to provide our services and related offerings, or for as long as we have a legitimate interest in retaining it (for example, even after a contract has been fulfilled, we may have a legitimate interest in postal marketing). We then delete your personal data, except for data that we must continue to store to fulfill legal obligations (for example, tax and commercial record-retention requirements may require us to retain documents such as contracts and invoices for a certain period).
We use various tools for marketing activities. When these tools are used, your browser may connect directly to the servers of the relevant tools. This allows the provider to learn that your browser has accessed the corresponding page on our website. Log files, similar to those described in section 5, are also transmitted to the providers’ servers and may be stored there. The provider or its server may be located outside Switzerland, the EU, or the EEA (e.g., in the United States).
Data is exchanged via third-party cookies.
For more information about the purpose and scope of data collection, further processing, and use of the data, see our and the respective terms and conditions and privacy notices.
Your email address, which you provide when signing up for the newsletter or registering a customer account, is used to send you information about our offerings. You can object to this use at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in the email.
Our employees and the service providers we engage are required to maintain confidentiality and comply with the provisions of applicable data protection laws.
We take all necessary technical and organizational measures to ensure an appropriate level of protection and, in particular, to protect the data we manage from the risks of accidental or unlawful destruction, manipulation, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or unauthorized access.
To exercise your rights, please use the contact information in the “Contact Information” section. Please ensure that we can clearly verify your identity.
You have the right to receive information from us about how your data is processed. To do so, you may exercise your right of access to the personal data we process about you.
The data will be made available to you within 20 business days of receiving your request.
You may ask us to correct inaccurate data. If the legal requirements are met, you may ask us to complete or delete your data.
Please contact us in writing or by phone to request deletion of your data. You can find our contact information under “Contact” on this page.
This does not apply to data needed for billing and accounting purposes or data subject to statutory retention requirements.
Your data will be deleted within 20 business days of receiving your request.
If the legal requirements are met, you may request to receive the data you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, or—where technically feasible—to have the data transferred to a third party.
You may also object at any time to the processing of your personal data for advertising purposes (“objection to advertising”). Please note that, for organizational reasons, your objection may overlap with the use of your data in a campaign that is already underway.
You also have the right to object at any time to our processing of your data when it is based on the legal basis of “legitimate interest.” We will then stop processing your data unless, in accordance with legal requirements, we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for continued processing that override your rights.
If you have given us consent to process your data, you may withdraw it at any time with future effect. This does not affect the lawfulness of the processing of your data up to the time of withdrawal.
We reserve the right to modify our security and data protection measures. In such cases, we will update our Privacy Policy accordingly.
