What this is about
This portal provides product information, in particular the digital product passport under Regulation (EU) 2024/1781. There is no customer account, no contact form and no newsletter.
Hosting
The portal runs on a server operated by Hetzner Online GmbH in a data centre in Nuremberg (Germany).
Server log
On every request, the web server processes your IP address, because it could not otherwise deliver the page to your device.
The web server access log stores: time, requested address including any search term, status code, size and duration of the response, details of the encrypted connection, and the headers sent by your browser, such as browser identification, preferred language and referring page.
The IP address is only stored there in shortened form: for IPv4 the first 24 bits are kept, for IPv6 the first 48 bits; the rest is set to zero.
The purpose is the secure and stable operation of the portal: finding errors and detecting and preventing attacks or misuse. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest lies in exactly this purpose.
There is no fixed deletion period for the log. It is rotated by size: once 5 files of 10 MB each are full, the oldest one is deleted. How long an entry is kept therefore depends on the volume of requests; the web server also writes requests to another service of the same company to this log.
Language selection
The portal chooses the language you see from the language setting your browser sends. Nothing is stored for this, neither a cookie nor a database entry; the selected language is part of the page address. The header itself only appears in the access log.
Search
A search term is transmitted as part of the address. It is only used for the search and is not stored in a database; as part of the requested address it appears in the access log.
Camera scan
With “Scan” you can read a QR code or barcode with the camera of your device. Access to the camera is only requested when you tap the button, and only granted with your permission in the browser. The camera image is analysed exclusively in your browser; it is neither transmitted to this server nor to third parties, and it is not stored. The program file required for this is delivered by this server.
Only the result is transmitted: if the scanner recognises the GTIN of a product passport, your browser opens the search with this number, just as if it had been entered in the search field. Any other code is discarded. The camera is switched off when you close the scanner or leave the page.
Cookies, tracking, third-party content
The portal sets no cookies and uses no analytics or tracking services. Pages, scripts, images and fonts are delivered exclusively from this server.
Links to other websites, for example to verification pages of certifiers or to our homepage, are only opened when you click them. The privacy policy of that website then applies.
Your rights
Under the General Data Protection Regulation you have the right to
- access (Art. 15 GDPR),
- rectification (Art. 16 GDPR),
- erasure (Art. 17 GDPR),
- restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR),
- data portability (Art. 20 GDPR), and
- object (Art. 21 GDPR).
Please contact the controller named above.
Right to object
Where we process data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, you may object to this processing at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation (Art. 21(1) GDPR).
Right to lodge a complaint
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. The authority responsible for us is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information of North Rhine-Westphalia (Landesbeauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit Nordrhein-Westfalen).
