European Union General Data
\nProtection Regulation (GDPR)
\n(valid May 25, 2018)<\/h2>\n

The protection of your personal data is very important to us at CET. We want
\nyou to feel safe when using our websites. We explain here what data we collect
\nand how we use it.<\/p>\n

Data collection and logging<\/h3>\n

Each time one of the websites of CET and the data on it is accessed, a log file is created
\nand saved with the following information:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • name of the file or data accessed<\/li>\n
  • date and time of access<\/li>\n
  • the amount of data transferred<\/li>\n
  • confirmation on whether the data was accessed successfully<\/li>\n
  • IP-address (unique address for internet-ready devices)<\/li>\n
  • referrer (name of the website accessed immediately before)<\/li>\n
  • browser name (including version)<\/li>\n
  • Operating system used<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

     <\/p>\n

    We log the traffic on CET for data security reasons and to ensure the stability and
    \nreliability of our system while also protecting CET against possible external attacks. In
    \naddition to this, we evaluate the data using statistical analysis. The data kept in the log
    \nfile are not directly linked to users and their identities, and are for internal purposes only.
    \nThey are not passed on to third parties. The data is not be used to personally identify
    \nvisitors to our websites. The data is not collated or merged with any other data. The
    \nadministration of our websites using information technology as well as anonymous
    \nstatistical surveys based on data usage allow for a better overall evaluation of the data
    \naccessed on CET in order to optimize our online offerings (see below).<\/p>\n

    Personal data<\/h3>\n

    You can obviously use the content on CET without disclosing any personal data.
    \nPersonally data means information that could be used to disclose your identity such as
    \nyour name, your email address and country.
    \nIn certain individual cases (for example competitions, newsletters, blogs or
    \ncommunities), we do, however, need to use personal data. In such cases we will expressly
    \ndraw your attention to this and will, on principle, kindly ask for your consent to collect
    \nand process your personal data.<\/p>\n

    When we collect, process and use such personal data, we always do so only for the stated
    \npurpose. The data will be treated confidentially, stored on secure servers and will not be
    \nforwarded to third parties or used for other purposes.
    \nYou have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with immediate effect. If you
    \nhave any questions, please contact us (see below for contact).<\/p>\n

    Your rights (relating to revocation, correction and deletion of
    \ninformation)<\/h3>\n

    Your data will only be used for the stated purposes and will not be sold to anyone. You
    \nhave the right to revoke your consent at any time. You can direct such requests to us
    \nusing the contact details on this website. Please note that if you should choose to revoke
    \nyou consent to access your data, personalized services on CET may, however, no longer
    \nbe available.<\/p>\n

    You have the right, as stipulated in EU legislation, to demand information about what
    \npersonal data (such as your name and address) is stored on CET.
    \nIn accordance with the statutory provisions, you also have the right to have your personal
    \ndata corrected and deleted. Please submit such requests to us using the contact details on
    \nthis website.<\/p>\n

    Contact forms and confidentiality of emails<\/h3>\n

    We offer contact forms in many places on CET. We will use your data shared on such
    \ncontact forms for the specified purposes. Should other purposes also be applicable we
    \nwould explicitly point this out and ask for your consent in such cases. Please also note the
    \nfollowing if you send us any emails: we cannot guarantee the confidential treatment of
    \nyour correspondence on its way to us if you choose to use an unencrypted email service
    \nprovider.<\/p>\n

    Use of cookies<\/h3>\n

    What are cookies?<\/h3>\n

    Cookies are small text files that are temporarily stored on the hard disk of your device.
    \nCET uses cookies for technical reasons without pointing this out in detail on each
    \noccasion. We save your IP address during the use of cookies.
    \nCookies do not store any personal data, and are used to collect anonymous data and
    \nstatistics on the use of the website by visitors. Cookies help us measure how well our
    \nwebsites are performing. This data helps us to improve and customize our content so you
    \nget more out of your visit to CET.<\/p>\n

    Which cookies does CET use?<\/p>\n

    Session cookies
    \nThese cookies only last for the duration of a session. They will disappear from your
    \ncomputer when you close the browser or turn your computer off. If you have chosen to
    \nidentify yourself on CET, we will also use session cookies that contain encrypted
    \ninformation to identify you.<\/p>\n

    Persistent cookies<\/h3>\n

    These cookies remain on your computer even after you close the browser or turn off the
    \ndevice. They are activated each time a user visits the website that created that particular
    \ncookie. To this end, you are assigned a unique identifier. This unique identifier is part of
    \na persistent cookie that we leave on your browser.
    \nIf you do not want us to remember your computer, you can disable the storage of cookies
    \nin the browser that you are using or turn on notification for when cookies are sent.
    \nCET can also be used without cookies.
    \nCookies remain active for 365 days. Post-click cookies (which are necessary to track data
    \nafter the initial click) is set to 20 days by default.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Measurement and analysis tools (in development)<\/h3>\n

     <\/p>\n

    We employ usage data for statistical purposes and analyses to help us to constantly
    \nimprove and develop our online content. We do not aggregate the collected data with
    \nother data sources. The data is used for internal purposes only and not disclosed to third
    \nparties.<\/p>\n

    The apps that are currently distributed by CET are designed to serve the purpose of data
    \neconomy. For statistical evaluation purposes, we collect information on when and how
    \noften the apps are started, used, closed and updated. This information is analyzed as
    \nindividual pieces of data and not linked to any other data. No personal data is used during the data analysis process. For evaluation purposes, the IP addresses of devices
    \nthat use CET-Apps will be logged; however, this happens anonymously.
    \nThis anonymization process is outsourced to a specialized service provider. On principle,
    \nCET does not collect any data on location or device identification number (UDID). If
    \npersonal data is to be collected and used within the framework of an app by CET, this
    \napp will contains a separate declaration and information on data protection.
    \nCET, however, has no influence on which data is collected and stored by network
    \nproviders and operating system manufacturers when using its apps and how such data
    \nused.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Facebook Pixel<\/h4>\n

    We use Facebook pixel to target people who visit CET&#39;s website more directly. As is
    \ncommon in this industry, we use Facebook Pixel to improve our advertisements and to
    \nprovide people with more relevant ads.
    \nFacebook pixel is a short piece of JavaScript code that is inserted into the HTML code of
    \na web page. When a web page is loaded, Facebook pixel sends general information about
    \nthe browser session to Facebook. If possible, a secure HTTP connection is used here. No
    \npersonal data about the visitor to the website is transmitted.<\/p>\n

    Google Analytics<\/h4>\n

    CET uses the web analytics service provider Google Analytics to improve and further develop its content and services.
    \nThese are services provided by Google Inc. (Google). Google uses cookies and text files
    \nthat are stored on your computer to analyze your usage of this website. The information
    \ngenerated by cookies about your usage of this website (including your IP address) is
    \ntransmitted to and stored on Google servers in the United States.
    \nYour IP address is anonymized while you use this website. Google normally truncates IP
    \naddresses within member states of the European Union as well as the European
    \nEconomic Area before they are communicated to their servers. Only in exceptional cases
    \nwill your full IP address be sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there.
    \nGoogle uses this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on
    \nwebsite activity for the operators of the site and to provide other services related to
    \nwebsite activity and internet usage. Google will also transfer this information to third
    \nparties if this is required by law or if third parties are used to process this data on behalf
    \nof Google. Third parties, including Google, place ads on websites on the Internet, using
    \nstored cookies to provide relevant ads based on previous visits by a user to this site.
    \nGoogle won&#39;t associate your IP address with other any data. You can prevent the storage
    \nof cookies by a changing the settings on your browser. We would like to point out,
    \nhowever, that in this case you may not be able to fully use all features of this website. You
    \ncan also prevent Google from collecting and processing data generated by cookies related
    \nto your use of the website (including your IP address) by downloading and installing a
    \nbrowser plug-in available using the following
    \nlink: https:\/\/tools.google.com\/dlpage\/gaoptout?hl=en. For more information about
    \ndisabling Google ads, please visit the Disable Google Ads page or refer to the Disable
    \nNetwork Ad Initiative page.<\/p>\n

    You can withdraw your consent to data collection and retention at any time with future
    \neffect. For more information about Google&#39;s terms, see below.

    \nBasic description of how Google uses cookies to deliver personalized ads and how users
    \ncan disable this on mobile devices:
    \nhttps:\/\/policies.google.com\/technologies\/ads?hl=de
    \nGeneral external tool for users to disable personalized ads based on online tracking:
    \nhttps:\/\/optout.networkadvertising.org\/?c=1#!\/
    \nPersonalized ads can also be disabled via the following Google link:

    <\/h4>\n

    Internet services and social media integration (currently in
    \ndevelopment)<\/h4>\n

    CET continues to constantly test new services to support internet-friendly ways of
    \ncontent distribution, including curating services such as ScribbleLive and Storify. We
    \nembed our content within social networks such as Facebook, Google Plus, Soundcloud,
    \nTwitter and YouTube.
    \nFor example, we embed content from providers such as YouTube, which is stored on their
    \nservers, on our websites. If you open a link to such a website that features outside
    \ncontent, this provider will receive the IP address of the device you use to go online. This
    \nexternal provider cannot draw any conclusions about your personal data from this IP
    \naddress alone, but can infer, for example, where you are located geographically.
    \nFurthermore, this provider can program cookies on your device, with which they can log
    \nyour online behavior.<\/p>\n

    Other examples are the embedded social network recommendation buttons (also called
    \n&quot;social plugins&quot;) in our content.<\/p>\n
