Use. We use this information for the purpose of responding to the request or inquiry you have submitted to us through the contact form or another entry field, to initiate business or perform under a contract (based on ART. 6 (1) B) GDPR).

COOKIES
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer to help the website analyze how visitors use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website.

COOKIE SETTINGS
Newsletter. If you request our newsletter, we will regularly inform you about our products and campaigns. We use a double opt-in procedure to subscribe. Should you confirm your email address, we shall store your email address, the time of registration, and the IP address used for the registration until you cancel the newsletter. This serves only the purpose of sending you the newsletter and providing evidence of your registration.
In our newsletter, we use technologies to measure interaction with the newsletter (e.g. opening of the e-mail, links clicked). We use these data in aggregate form for general statistical evaluations and to optimize and develop our contacts and customer communication. The legal basis for this is our foregoing legitimate interest under the terms of ART. 6 (1) F) GDPR. We wish to share topics with you that actually are relevant and try to better understand the interests of our readers. If you do not wish your use pattern to be analyzed, you may cancel the newsletter or disable graphics in your email program at any time. The data relating to the interaction with our newsletter is stored pseudonymously.
You may cancel the newsletter at any time. An unsubscribe link is placed in every newsletter. A message to the contact details given below or in the newsletter also is fine. The legal basis is ART. 6 (1) A) GDPR.
Information Sharing. We do not share your information with third parties for their promotional purposes. We may share your information with affiliated companies and trusted third-party service providers working under the instruction of R3, such Hubspot, exclusively for storage purposes. Such third parties who provide services on our behalf are authorized to use your personal information only as strictly necessary to provide these services to us.
Others’ Websites. Our site includes links to other websites whose privacy practices may differ from ours. If you submit personal information to any of those sites, your information is governed by their privacy statements. We encourage you to carefully read the privacy statement of any website you visit.

DATA COLLECTION AND USE OF PSEUDONYMIZED INFORMATION
Passive Collection. As is true of most websites, we gather certain information automatically. This information may include truncated Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, the files viewed on our site (e.g., HTML pages, graphics, etc.), operating system, date/time stamp, and/or clickstream data to analyze trends in the aggregate and administer the site.
Google Analytics. To optimize this website, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how you use this website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. If the IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will previously be truncated by Google within the EU member states or EEA member states. Only in exceptional cases will the IP address be transferred to Google on a server in the United States and thereafter be truncated. On behalf of the website operator, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators, and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address that was transmitted by your browser will not be combined by Google with any other data. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however, please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You may also prevent the collection of the data that was generated by the cookie and that is related to the use of the website (including your IP address) as well as its processing by Google by downloading and installing a browser plugin that is available under the following link: HTTP://TOOLS.GOOGLE.COM/DLPAGE/GAOPTOUT. Additional information thereto is available at HTTP://TOOLS.GOOGLE.COM/DLPAGE/GAOPTOUT and HTTP://WWW.GOOGLE.COM/ANALYTICS/PRIVACYOVERVIEW.HTML (general information to Google Analytics and privacy). This website uses Google Analytics with its extension code “gat._anonymizeIp()” so that IP addresses will therefore only be processed in a shortened form to prevent persons from being identified. This anonymized data will be retained for 14 months.
We do not process any of this information, directly or indirectly, with the help of a third party or otherwise, to determine your identity.
HubSpot Inc: R3 integrates HubSpot software with our website for data analytics purposes. In particular, we employ HubSpot's Beacon plugin, which sets cookies and collects user information (IP address, geographical location, browser type, visit duration, exact pages visited, etc.) to generate reports on user behavior. The purpose of this data gathering is to assist our Sales and Marketing teams to optimize user experience (UX) and make website adjustments where necessary.
HubSpot may also be employed to link a user's personal information - granted to subscribe to R3's email newsfeed or to download documents from the R3 website - with individual user visits. The purpose of this data gathering is to inform users on an individual and targeted basis about their preferred subject areas.
HubSpot cookie profiling can be switched off at any time in the user's corresponding browser settings. HubSpot's full data protection declaration can be reviewed in detail here: http://legal.hubspot.com/de/privacy-policy

DATA SECURITY AND RETENTION
The security of your information is fundamental to R3. We have implemented physical and technical industry-standard security measures, which include the use of firewalls and encryption to protect your personal information. However, as no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any further questions about the security of your personal information, you may contact us at contact[at]r3coms.com.
We will retain your information for as long as you browse this website or as needed to provide you with service, respectively. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
YOUR (EU) DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS

As an EU resident (however we provide these same options to non-EU residents), you may:
- Access the data that R3 keeps about you. We may need to ask you to provide us with certain credentials to make sure that you are who you claim you are. If you find that the data is not accurate, complete, or updated, then you may provide us with the necessary information to rectify it.
- Withdraw your consent to the processing of your personal information. Exercising this right will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
- Request to delete or restrict access to your personal information. We may postpone or deny your request due to legitimate purposes, such as compliance with regulatory requirements associated with us.
If you exercise one (or more) of the above-mentioned rights, in accordance with the provisions of applicable law, you may request to be informed that third parties that hold your personal information, in accordance with this Policy, will act accordingly.
- You may ask to transfer your personal information in accordance with your right to data portability.

If necessary, we will request proof of your identity before processing your concern. This serves to protect your data from manipulation or deletion by third parties.
LEGAL DISCLAIMER
We reserve the right to disclose or transfer your personal information as required by law (based on ART. 6 (1) F) GDPR), as part of a merger, acquisition, dissolution, or sale of assets, and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process.
