Data protection regulations

Nürburgring Betriebsgesellschaft mbH, as of 16 May 2013

Nürburgring Betriebsgesellschaft mbH is delighted by your visit to our website and your interest in our company and our products and services.

Protecting your personal data used during the entire business process is a key issue for us and we want you to feel secure when visiting our web pages.

In the following, we will explain what information we at Nürburgring Betriebsgesellschaft mbH capture during your visit to our web pages and how that information will be used.

Personal data are individual pieces of information about the personal or substantive situation of a defined or definable natural person. This includes information such as, for example, your correct name, your address, your telephone number and your date of birth. Information that is not linked directly with your true identity – such as preferred web pages or the number of users of a page – is not considered personal data.

We use the personal data you make available exclusively for purposes of technical administration of the websites and to meet your wishes and needs, so as a rule to handle the contract concluded with you, to answer your enquiry or within the context of your participation in a prize draw.

Only if you have previously granted your consent, or – to the extent provided for by law – have failed to object, we also use these data for product-related surveys and marketing purposes, e.g. newsletter.

No forwarding, sale or other transmission of your personal data to third parties takes place unless doing same is necessary for the purposes of fulfilling the contract or where you have explicitly consented to it. It may, for example, be necessary in the event of orders for products for us to pass on your address and order data to our suppliers.

If rendering a service or responding to an enquiry requires us to transmit your personal data to an external service provider, we take technical and organisational measures to ensure that the legal provisions concerning data protection are adhered to. Nürburgring Betriebsgesellschaft mbH also obliges its external service providers to comply with the relevant provisions of data protection law, to treat personal data confidentially and to delete them as soon as they are no longer needed.

Since the protection of the private sphere of children is of major importance, we would prefer not to gather, process or use personal data of persons under 16 years of age. Should you as their legal guardian learn that your children have sent their personal data to us, you can get in touch with us via the addresses given in the imprint if you want those data to be deleted.

Cookies are small text files that can be deposited on the hard disk of website visitors. The information contained in cookies facilitates navigation for you and enables correct display of our Internet pages. Our cookies are otherwise not designed to identify you as a person. You can prevent cookies being saved by adjusting your browser settings accordingly. To find out how that works, please see the operating instructions of your browser manufacturer.

As a rule, we do not use cookies on our websites. Only in exceptional cases are so-called “session cookies” used, which deposit the data needed for technical session management in your browser’s memory. Those data are not person-specific and are deleted at the latest when your browser closes. Should we need exceptionally to also save personal data in a cookie, we will first obtain your explicit consent. Otherwise, we would point out that browsers as a rule have functions for administration of cookies.

This website uses plugins provided by the social networking site facebook.com, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”).

If you call up a page containing a plugin of this nature from our website, a direct link is established between your browser and Facebook’s servers and the plugin will be shown on the website by a message sent to your browser. This sends information to the Facebook server about which of our Internet pages you have visited. If you are logged in to Facebook as a member thereby, Facebook will assign that information to your personal Facebook user account. If you use the plugin functions (e.g. by clicking on “Like” or entering a comment), that information will also be assigned to your Facebook account, which you can only prevent by logging out before using the plugin.

For more information on the gathering and use of data by Facebook and about your rights in this respect to protect your private sphere, please refer to Facebook’s data protection information.

When you visit our web pages, our webservers, as standard and for the purposes of system security, temporarily save the connection data of the enquiring computer, the web pages you visit here, the date and duration of the visit, the identification data of the browser and operating system type, as well as the website you visit us from. Personal information extending beyond that, such as your name, your address, telephone number or e-mail address will not be captured unless you give that information voluntarily, e.g. within the context of registration, a survey, a prize draw, for the purposes of fulfilling a contract or a request for information.

Nürburgring Betriebsgesellschaft mbH takes all necessary technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against loss or misuse. Your data, for instance, will be stored in a secure operating environment, which is not accessible to the public. Should you want to get in touch with Nürburgring Betriebsgesellschaft mbH by e-mail, we would point out that the confidentiality of the information transmitted is not assured. Third parties can view the content of e-mails, so we would advise you to send us confidential information only by post.

You do of course have the option at any time to have your data partially or completely deleted. You can revoke your consent to use of your personal data for our own advertising purposes at any time by post and/or by email to info(at)nuerburgring.de. Participation in our special promotion will of course not be affected by you revoking your consent. We will accede to your wishes without delay and immediately cease sending further advertising material. To the extent we might be required by law to retain your data, that data will not be deleted but will be blocked.

Upon written request, we will inform you about which data concerning you personally (e.g. name, address) we have stored.

Should you otherwise still have questions or suggestions, you can contact our company’s Data Protection Officer by e-mail at any time:
