Privacy statement

This privacy statement relates to the above-mentioned social media sites that we operate.

Below, we would like to inform you about how your personal data are handled.

1. The name and contact details of the data controller and of the company's data protection officer

This data protection information applies to data processing by the following entity:

Data controller:
LUTZ GmbH & Co. KG,Piepersberg 20, 42653 Solingen, Germany; Tel: +49 212 5966-0, Fax: +49 212 5966-229; Senior Partner: Lutz-Verwaltungs GmbH, Managing Directors: Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Alexander Lutz, Dipl.-Wirt.-Ing. (FH) Martin Wurth; email: info(at)lutz-blades.com

The Data Protection Officer is available at the above address and at datenschutz(at)lutz-blades.com.

Besides us there is also the operator of the social media platform itself. In this respect, that entity is another controller involved in data processing, but one over which we have only limited influence. Wherever we can exert influence and define the parameters for data processing, we work within the framework of the possibilities available to us to implement data protection-compliant handling by the provider of the social media platform.

2. Data processing by us

The data you enter on our social media pages, such as comments, videos, pictures, likes, public messages, etc., are published by the social media platform and are never used or processed by us for other purposes. We reserve the right to delete content if this should be necessary. We may share your content on our site if this is a feature of the social media platform and communicate with you through that social media platform. The legal basis for this is also Article 6(1) f GDPR. Data processing is conducted in the interests of our public relations and communication activities.

The data collected directly by us via the social media platform are deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose for storing it no longer applies, you request us to delete it, you revoke your consent to storage it or the purpose for data storage no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your device until you delete them. Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

3. Data processing by the provider of the social media platform

When you use our social media sites, your personal data may be processed outside the European Union. This may entail risks for users, e.g. by making it more difficult to enforce users' rights. US providers that are certified under the Privacy Shield are committed to complying with EU privacy standards. We are unable to ascertain the extent of the data stored by them or the period of time for which they are stored.

We treat your data with the utmost care, but accept no liability for the behaviour of the providers of social media platforms and third parties.
