Protecting your privacy is of paramount importance to CAWÖ TEXTIL GmbH & Co. KG. We therefore comply with data protection legislation as a matter of course. Moreover, it is important to us that you always know when we are storing your data and how we are using it.

General

Generally speaking, it is possible to use our website without providing any personal data. If you use our website for purely informative purposes and do not register or enter your data on any online forms, we will only store the data that your browser transfers to us for technical reasons and for statistical analysis related to the aims of the business, and the security and optimisation of our website. This includes the name of the website requested, the date and time of the visit, the data volume transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user’s operating system, the site visited previously, the IP address and the requesting provider.

Personal data

We only gather, process and use personal data when you share this information with us voluntarily. This might be, for example, as part of an enquiry or when you contact us yourself. We only process this data internally for a specific purpose and we do not pass on your data to third parties without your express consent.

B2B SHOP

On our website, we offer the possibility of registering with us by providing personal information. B2B customers can register with us by authenticating their email account, providing their customer number and their password. We store the registration details in order to have specific content and services readily available on our website and for the purpose of providing a functioning portal.

On our website, we use Matomo, an open-source Web analysis tool (http://matomo.org), to gather and store data for marketing and optimisation purposes. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1f) GDPR. This data is made available to CAWÖ TEXTIL GmbH & Co. KG and is not shared with third parties. Usage profiles under a pseudonym may be created from this data. For this purpose, cookies may be used. Cookies are small text files which are saved locally in the cache of the site visitor’s Internet browser. Cookies allow the site to recognise the Internet browser. The data gathered using Matomo will not be used to identify the visitor to the website without the specific prior permission of the person involved, and it will not be combined with personal data about the bearer of the pseudonym.
