Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2025

This Privacy Policy explains how we process personal data when you visit our website, contact us, or use our factoring services. We are committed to handling your information responsibly and in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG).

1. Controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

• ARAMIS Factoring GmbH & Co. KG
• Pfitzner Straße, 40724 Hilden, Deutschland
• Phone: +49 02103 / 3909103
• Email: [email protected]

2. Data we collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may process the following categories of personal data:

• Contact data you provide voluntarily, such as your name, company, email address, phone number and the content of your message.
• Business data required to assess and provide factoring services, such as company information and details relating to receivables.
• Technical data automatically collected when you visit the site, such as IP address, browser type, device information, referring page and time of access, recorded in server log files.

3. Purposes and legal bases of processing

We process personal data only where a legal basis under Article 6 GDPR applies:

• To respond to enquiries submitted through our contact form or by email — based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a)) and/or steps prior to a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)).
• To provide and administer our services — based on the performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)).
• To operate and secure the website — based on our legitimate interest in a stable, safe service (Art. 6(1)(f)).
• To comply with legal obligations, such as commercial and tax retention duties (Art. 6(1)(c)).

4. Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. This website uses only what is necessary to function and to embed a map service. We distinguish between:

• Essential cookies, required for the basic operation of the site. These do not require consent.
• Functional and third-party content, such as an embedded map, which may set cookies when loaded. Where these are not strictly necessary, we ask for your consent before they are activated.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Disabling certain cookies may affect parts of the website.

5. Sharing and recipients

We do not sell your personal data. We share it only where necessary, for example with carefully selected service providers acting as processors on our behalf (such as IT and hosting providers) under appropriate data-processing agreements, or where we are legally obliged to disclose it. Should any transfer to a country outside the European Economic Area occur, we ensure appropriate safeguards as required by the GDPR.

6. Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described above or as required by statutory retention periods. Enquiry data is deleted once your request has been dealt with and no further legal obligation requires its storage.

7. Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to:

• request access to the personal data we hold about you (Art. 15);
• request rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16);
• request erasure of your data (Art. 17);
• request restriction of processing (Art. 18);
• receive your data in a portable format (Art. 20);
• object to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 21);
• withdraw consent at any time, without affecting prior lawful processing.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details above.

8. Data security

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against loss, misuse and unauthorised access. Data submitted through this website should be transmitted over an encrypted connection (SSL/TLS) when deployed on your live domain.

9. Changes and contact

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our services or legal requirements. The current version always applies. If you have questions about how we handle your data, contact us at [email protected] or by phone at +49 02103 / 3909103.
