Protecting your privacy when we process your data is a matter of importance to ASKA Biotech that is taken into consideration in all of our business processes. We’d therefore like to take this opportunity to explain to you the guidelines that we apply to the processing of personal data.
Scope of processing personal data
As a general rule, we only collect and utilize your personal data to the extent that is necessary for providing a functional website and our content and services. The collection and utilization of personal data generally only occurs with the user’s consent. Exceptions apply in cases where obtaining consent is impossible for factual reasons and where data processing is permitted by law.
Legal basis and purposes for processing personal data
ASKA Biotech processes all personal data stemming from your visit to the ASKA Biotech website strictly in accordance with the applicable legal regulations. We use this personal data only for the purposes specified in the present declaration (e.g., to process a query or in connection with the utilization of internet services).
In cases where we are obtaining the consent of the data subject for processing personal data, Art. 6 (1) (a), EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis for processing personal data.
With regard to processing personal data that is required for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, Art. 6 (1) (b), GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing steps that are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures.
If processing personal data is required for compliance with legal obligations to which our company is subject, Art 6 (1) (c), GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In the event that the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person require processing personal data, Art 6 (1) (d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
Data that we collect
You can use almost the entirety of ASKA Biotech website without ever having to supply us with personal data. Only a fraction of the information and services located on our website require you to enter personal data in order to use them.
We process your personal data only if you provide us with it voluntarily. This can occur in connection with a query, a desire on your part to contact us, an order placed by you, etc. We also require your personal data when you wish to make use of particular services (insofar as such services may be offered) on the ASKA Biotech website such as the newsletter.
When visiting our website, we compile technical access data. Such technical access data include, for example, the name of your internet service provider, the IP address, information about the internet browser and the operating system, the domain name of the website that acts as a platform for a visit to our own website, the average duration of a visit to our website, and the pages called from our website. This data will be sent to our web server when your internet browser calls individual internet pages. The legal basis for the temporary storage of data is Art. 6(1) (f), GDPR. The temporary storage of data, including the IP address, by the system is necessary to allow for delivery of the website to the user’s computer. For this purpose, the IP address of the user and other data must remain saved for the duration of the session.
Cookies
We also add cookies to some areas of our website. Cookies are small data elements that an internet server can send to your computer, thereby allowing it to be identified during your visit to our website and making it easier for you to use our website. Cookies allow a site or services to know if your computer or device has visited it before. These technologies can then be used to help us understand how the site or service is being used, help you navigate between pages efficiently, help remember your preferences, and generally improve your experience in using our services. Cookies do not cause any damage on your computer and do not contain viruses.
Generally, two types of cookies exist: a) cookies which are required for the proper use of the website. The legal basis for processing personal data together with the use of technically necessary cookies is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR; and b) cookies which are not required for the usage of the website and which are therefore optional. The legal bases for the usage of these cookies is a prior consent of the data subject.
You can set your internet browser to tell you whether cookies are being accepted or refused. For more information on cookies, consult the help files in your internet browser. Please note that deactivating cookies may limit this website’s functionality.
The length of time a cookie will stay on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. Session cookies will only stay on your device until you stop browsing. Persistent cookies stay on your computer or mobile device until they expire or are deleted.
Google Analytics
If you have given your consent, Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Ireland Limited (“Google”) is used on this website. The use includes the “Universal Analytics” operating mode. This makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thus analyze a user’s activities across devices.
Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users interact with the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. We would like to point out that on this website Google Analytics has been extended to include IP anonymisation in order to ensure anonymous collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. For more information on terms of use and data protection, please visit https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html or https://policies.google.com/?hl=en.

Transfer of personal data to a third country
We retain control over and take responsibility for the use of the personal data that you send to us. It is possible that some or all of this data is stored or processed in other countries (for example in the United States) that have different data protection laws from your country of residence. In such case, we will ensure that the company commissioned to process the data has taken appropriate steps to protect your personal data in accordance with the requirements applicable in your country of residence. Usually, we will make use of standard contractual clauses (SSC) which are one of several mechanisms approved by the European Commission to ensure adequate safeguards for personal data transferred from the EU to countries that the European Commission has not found to offer adequate protection for personal data. Standard contractual clauses contain obligations for both data controllers wishing to transfer personal data to counties outside the EU/EEA and data controllers or data processors who receive such data. The clauses also regulate other matters concerning the transfer, for example the data subjects’ rights and how disputes arising from the contract are to be settled.
Storing your data
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. Furthermore, storage may occur if required by European or national laws in EU directives, laws or other regulations to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted if the storage period specified in one of the above-referenced standards expires unless there is a need for further storage of data for concluding a contract or for contract performance.
Protecting your data
Any data provided by you to ASKA Biotech will be protected by suitable technical and organizational mechanisms against adventitious or intentional manipulation, loss or destruction, access by unauthorized persons, and against unauthorized disclosure to third parties. With this goal in mind, our security measures are continually monitored and enhanced in accordance with technological advances and organizational resources.
