Privacy policy

At Adelco Screen Process Ltd we are dedicated to safeguarding and preserving your privacy when visiting our site or communicating with us. The use of the Adelco Screen Process Ltd website (https://www.adelco.co.uk) is possible without any indication of personal data; however, if a data subject wants to use special services via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to Adelco Screen Process Ltd. By means of this data protection declaration, our company would like to inform the general public of the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed, by means of this data protection declaration, of the rights to which they are entitled.

As the controller, Adelco Screen Process Ltd has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions may in principle have security gaps, so absolute protection may not be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transfer personal data to us via alternative means, e.g. by telephone or by post.

The data protection declaration of Adelco Screen Process Ltd is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR). Our data protection declaration should be legible and understandable for the general public, as well as our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to first explain the terminology used.

In this data protection declaration, we use the following terms:

Personal data – Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (also known as a data subject). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified (directly or indirectly), in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

Data subject – Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person, whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.

Processing – Processing is any operation or set of operations that are performed on personal data or on sets of personal data. It doesn’t matter whether or not this is done manually or by automated means.

Restriction of processing – Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.

Profiling – Profiling is any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person. Profiling can be used to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s performance at work, economic situations, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.

Pseudonymisation – Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

Controller – The Controller (or controller responsible for the processing) is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body that determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

Processor – Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

Recipient – Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data is disclosed, whether a third party or not. Public authorities that receive personal data in the framework of a particular enquiry shall not be regarded as recipients; the processing of those data by those public authorities shall be in compliance with the applicable data protection rules according to the purposes of the processing.

Third party – Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal data.

Consent – Consent of the data subject is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication that the data subject signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to them.

For information on how we use cookies on this website please view our cookies policy.

The website of Adelco Screen Process Ltd collects a series of general data and information when a data subject or automated system visits the website. This general data is stored in the web server log files.

• the web browser types and versions used
• the operating system used by the device visiting the website
• the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (referrers)
• the date and time of access to our website
• the IP address of your device
• the Internet Service Provider of the accessing system, and
• any other similar data and information that may be used in the event of attacks on our systems

When using these general data and information, Adelco Screen Process Ltd does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. The information is needed to:

• deliver the content of our website correctly
• optimise the content of our website as well as any advertisements used
• ensure the long-term viability of our IT systems and website technology, and
• provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber attack

Adelco Screen Process Ltd analyses anonymously collected data with the aim of increasing data protection and security, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

On our website, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our newsletter. We share company news and offers with our customers and business partners regularly by means of a newsletter. The company newsletter may only be received by the data subject if :

• the data subject has a valid email address, and
• the data subject registers for the newsletter through our online form

Double opt-in is enabled, which means that before you receive an email from our newsletter you must confirm your subscription. A confirmation email will be sent to the email address registered by a data subject. This confirmation email is used to prove whether the owner of the email address as the data subject is authorised to receive the newsletter.

During the registration for the newsletter, we also store the IP address of the computer system assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) and used by the data subject at the time of the registration, as well as the date and time of the registration. The collection of this data is necessary in order to understand the (possible) misuse of the email address of a data subject at a later date, and it therefore serves the aim of the legal protection of the controller.

We use an Email Newsletter service called MailChimp, who collect and process the personal data collected as part of a registration for the newsletter. The subscription to our newsletter may be terminated by the data subject at any time. There is an unsubscribe  link is found at the bottom of each newsletter that is sent out by MailChimp. It is also possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time directly on the website of the controller, or to communicate this to the controller in a different way.

The newsletter emails contains a tracking pixel, which is a miniature graphic. The pixel is embedded in emails, which are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and analysis. This allows a statistical analysis of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns through MailChimp. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, Adelco Screen Process Ltd may see if and when an email was opened by a data subject, and which links in the email were clicked by data subjects.

Such personal data collected in the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters are stored and analysed by the controller to improve the content of future newsletters. If you do not wish to receive the newsletter you can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the link at the bottom of the email or you can simply contact us. After a revocation, the personal data will be deleted by the controller. Adelco Screen Process Ltd automatically regards a withdrawal from the receipt of the newsletter as a revocation.

Our website contains information that enables users to contact us and we display our postal address, telephone and email address on our contact us page. If a data subject contacts the controller by email or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject is automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the data controller are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties.

The comments made in the blog of Adelco Screen Process Ltd may be subscribed to by third parties. In particular, there is the possibility that a commenter subscribes to the comments following thier comments on a particular blog post. If a data subject decides to subscribe to be notified of follow up comments then the controller will send an automated confirmation email to check the double opt-in procedure. Double opt-in is required to verify that the request has come from the data subject. The option to subscribe to comments may be terminated at any time by the data subject.

When Adelco received an enquiry for a Kornit product we share your details with Kornit.. This information needs to be shared regardless of if a purchase has been made, if you have ordered a product they will need this information to process your order and deliver your item. Kornit may send out marketing materials that are related to your enquiry but you can opt-out at any time by using the unsubscribe link in Kornit’s emails or by contacting Adelco.

Adelco embeds YouTube videos on our website to showcase our range of products. When you click play on the video, statistical data is sent back to YouTube, which helps us know how people are interacting with our videos. A cookie is stored on your computer to allow this statistical data to be sent back to YouTube. No personal data is stored or shared with YouTube when interacting with videos embedded on our website.

On this website, the controller has integrated the component of Google Analytics (with the anonymiser function). Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics is the collection, gathering, and analysis of data about the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analysis service collects data about the website from which a person has come (a referrer), what pages were visited, or how often and for what duration a web page was viewed. Web analytics are mainly used for the optimisation of a website and in order to carry out a cost-benefit analysis of Internet advertising.

For the web analytics through Google Analytics the controller uses the application “_gat. _anonymizeIp”. By means of this application the IP address of the data subject is altered by Google and anonymised when accessing our websites from a Member State of the European Union or another Contracting State to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyse the traffic on our website. Google uses the collected data and information to evaluate the use of our website. This allows the controller to produce online reports, which show the activities on our websites, how long people stayed on the website, what content is popular etc. No personally identifiable information is stored within Google Analytics.

Google Analytics places a cookie on the device being used by the data subject. With the setting of the cookie, Google is allowed to analyse the use of our website. During your visit to our website,  Google gains knowledge of personal information, such as the IP address of the data subject, which allows Google, to understand the origin of visitors.

The cookie is used to store personal information, such as the access time, the location from which the access was made, and the frequency of visits of our website by the data subject. With each visit to our web pages, personal data, including the IP address of the device used by the data subject, will be transmitted to Google in the United States of America. These personal data are stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may pass this personal data collected through the data subjects visit to our website to third parties.

The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding settings change in their web browser and permanently prevent cookies from being stored. This change to the web browser would also prevent Google Analytics from setting a cookie on the device used by the data subject. In addition, cookies already in use by Google Analytics may be deleted at any time via a web browser.

In addition, the data subject has the possibility of objecting to a collection of data that is generated by Google Analytics, which is related to the use of this website, as well as the processing of this data by Google. The data subject must download a browser add-on under the link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and install it.

This browser add-on tells Google Analytics, that any data and information about the data subject’s visits may not be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered an objection by Google. If the device of the data subject is later deleted, formatted, or newly installed, then the data subject must reinstall the browser add-ons to disable Google Analytics.

Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of Google may be retrieved under https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy and under http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html.

On this website, the controller has integrated components of Pinterest Inc. Pinterest is a social network. A social network is an Internet social meeting place, an online community that allows users to communicate and interact with each other in a virtual space. A social network may serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences, or allow the Internet community to provide personal or company-related information. Pinterest enables the users of the social network to publish, inter alia, picture collections and individual pictures as well as descriptions on virtual pinboards (pins), which can then be shared by other user’s (re-pins) or commented on.

With each visit to one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Pinterest component (Pinterest plug-in) was integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject automatically prompted to download through the respective Pinterest component a display of the corresponding Pinterest component. Further information on Pinterest is available under https://pinterest.com/. During the course of this technical procedure, Pinterest gains knowledge of what specific sub-page of our website is visited by the data subject.

If the data subject is logged in at the same time on Pinterest, Pinterest detects with every visit to our website by the data subject—and for the entire duration of their stay on our website what specific sub-page of our Internet page was visited by the data subject. This information is collected through the Pinterest component and associated with the respective Pinterest account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on one of the Pinterest buttons, integrated on our website, then Pinterest assigns this information to the personal Pinterest user account of the data subject and stores the personal data.

Pinterest receives information via the Pinterest component that the data subject has visited our website, provided that the data subject is logged in at Pinterest at the time of the visit to our website. This occurs regardless of whether the person clicks on the Pinterest component or not. If such a transmission of information to Pinterest is not desirable for the data subject, then they may prevent this by logging off from their Pinterest account before a visit to our website is made.

The data protection guideline published by Pinterest, which is available under https://about.pinterest.com/privacy-policy, provides information on the collection, processing and use of personal data by Pinterest.

On this website, the controller has integrated components of Twitter. Twitter is a publicly-accesible micro-blogging service on which users may publish and spread ‘tweets’ (short messages), which are limited to 140 characters. These short messages are available for everyone, including those who are not logged on to Twitter. The tweets are also displayed to followers of the respective user. Followers are other Twitter users who follow a user’s tweets. Furthermore, Twitter allows you to address a wide audience via hashtags, links or retweets.

With each visit to one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Twitter component (Twitter button) was integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted to download a display of the corresponding Twitter component of Twitter. Further information about the Twitter buttons is available under https://about.twitter.com/de/resources/buttons. Twitter knows what specific pages of our website was visited by the data subject. The purpose of the integration of the Twitter component is a retransmission of the contents of this website to allow our users to introduce this web page to the digital world and increase our visitor numbers.

If the data subject is logged in at the same time on Twitter, Twitter detects with every visit to our website by the data subject and for the entire duration of their stay on our website which specific sub-page of our Internet page was visited by the data subject. This information is collected through the Twitter component and associated with the respective Twitter account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on one of the Twitter buttons integrated on our website, then Twitter assigns this information to the personal Twitter user account of the data subject and stores the personal data.

Twitter receives information via the Twitter component that the data subject has visited our website, provided that the data subject is logged in on Twitter at the time of the visit to our website. This occurs regardless of whether the person clicks on the Twitter component or not. If such a transmission of information to Twitter is not desirable for the data subject, then they may prevent this by logging off from their Twitter account before a visit to our website is made.

The applicable data protection provisions of Twitter may be accessed under https://twitter.com/privacy?lang=en.

Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service, the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries concerning our products or services. Is our company subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfilment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR.

In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR.

Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the above mentioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a client of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favor of the well-being of all our employees and the shareholders.

The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner).

Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded.

Before personal data is provided by the data subject, the data subject must contact any employee. The employee clarifies to the data subject whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and the consequences of non-provision of the personal data.

We do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.
