Welcome to the website www.cover-too.com! We want you to know when we store which data and how we use it. As a company under private law, we are subject to the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
1. Sense and purpose of the privacy statement
This privacy statement applies to all online content from Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH. This includes websites, functions and content as well as external online presences, such as our social media profiles. In addition to the following general information and mandatory information, we have compiled additional individual data protection information for individual online content for you.
By means of this privacy statement, our company would like to inform the public about the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed of their rights by means of this privacy statement.
The use of the Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH website is possible without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wants to use special services of our company via our website, the processing of personal data (e.g. the name, address, email address, or telephone number of a data subject) could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.
As the controller, Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible of personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can always have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.
2. Definitions

f) Pseudonymization
Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way 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 separate and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
g) (Data) controller
A controller (or “data controller”) is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

5. Data processing
The website of Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH collects a series of general data and information whenever a data subject or automated system accesses the website. This general data and information is stored in the server’s log files.
The following data may be collected when you visit our platform:
- Browser type and versions
- The operating system used by the accessing system
- The website from which an accessing system arrives at our website (so-called referrer)
- The sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website
- Country
- Date, time, and duration of access
- An Internet Protocol (IP) address
- The (ISP) Internet Service Provider of the accessing system
- Partially masked IP address and pages visited on our website, including entry and exit pages
- Other similar data and information that serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems
- Payment data within the online store
- Contact details within the online store
- Data that you enter via a contact form
- Email address
- Newsletter dispatch
- Phone number
- Ordered products.
When using this general data and information, Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH does not draw any conclusions about the data subject.
Processing is based on Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. f of the GDPR:
- from a overriding legitimate interest in ensuring the trouble-free operation of our website.
- in order to optimize the content of our website and the advertising for it.
- to ensure the permanent functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website.
- to protect against attacks (cyber attacks) and misuse.
- for statistical evaluations as well as for the improvement of our content.
Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH therefore collects anonymous data and information on one hand for statistical purposes and on the other hand for the purpose of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, so as 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 any personal data provided by a data subject.
6. Registration on our website
The data subject has the possibility to register on the website of the controller by providing personal data. Which personal data is transmitted to the data controller in this process is determined by the respective entry form used for the registration. The personal data entered by the data subject is collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the controller and for its own purposes. The controller may arrange for the transfer to one or more processors, for example a parcel service provider, which also uses the personal data exclusively for an internal use attributable to the controller.
By registering on the website of the controller, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) of the data subject, the date and the time of registration are also stored. The data is stored because it is only in this way that the misuse of our services can be prevented and, if necessary, this data makes it possible to clarify crimes that have been committed. In this respect, the storage of this data is necessary for the protection of the controller. As a matter of principle, this data is not passed on to third parties unless there is a legal obligation to pass it on, or passing it on serves the purpose of criminal prosecution.
The registration of the data subject by voluntarily providing personal data serves the purpose of the controller to offer the data subject content or services which, due to the nature of the matter, can only be offered to registered users. Registered persons are free to modify the personal data provided during registration at any time or to have it completely deleted from the database of the controller.
The controller shall provide any data subject at any time, upon request, with information about what personal data is stored about the data subject. Furthermore, the controller shall correct or delete personal data at the request or indication of the data subject, provided that this does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations. The entire staff of the controller shall be available to the data subject as contact persons in this context.
6.1. Customer account
When opening a customer account, we collect your personal data to the extent specified there. The purpose of data processing is to improve your shopping experience and to simplify order processing. The processing is based on Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. a of the GDPR with your consent. You may revoke your consent at any time by notifying us, without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation. Your customer account will be deleted afterwards.
6.2. Collection, processing, and forwarding of personal data for orders
When you place an order, we collect and process your personal data only to the extent necessary for the fulfillment and processing of your order and to process your requests. The provision of the data is necessary for the conclusion of the contract. Failure to provide this data will result in the inability to enter into a contract.
The processing is based on Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. b of the GDPR and is necessary for the performance of a contract with you. Failure to provide the data will result in no contract being concluded.
Your data is passed on, for example, to the shipping companies and drop shipping providers you have chosen, payment service providers, service providers for order processing, and IT service providers. In all cases, we strictly observe the legal requirements. The scope of the data transfer is limited to a minimum.
6.3. Collection and processing when using the contact form
When using the contact form, we collect your personal data (name, email address, message text) only to the extent provided by you. Data processing is used for the purpose of making contact.
By sending your message, you consent to the processing of the transmitted data. The processing is based on Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. a of the GDPR with your consent.
You may revoke your consent at any time by notifying us, without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation. We will only use your email address to process your request. Your data will then be deleted unless you have consented to further processing and use.
6.4. Subscription to our newsletter
On the Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH website, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our company newsletter. Which personal data is transmitted to the data controller when signing up for the newsletter is determined by the entry form used for this purpose.
The processing is based on Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. a of the GDPR with your consent. You may revoke your consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time by using the corresponding link in the newsletter or by notifying us. Your email address will then be removed from the distribution list
Your data will be passed on to a service provider for email marketing within the scope of order processing. The data will not be passed on to other third parties.
Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH informs its customers and business partners at regular intervals by means of a newsletter about company offers. In principle, the newsletter of our company can only be received by the data subject if (1) the data subject has a valid email address and (2) the data subject registers for the newsletter mailing. For legal reasons, a confirmation email is sent to the email address entered by a data subject for the first time for the newsletter dispatch using the double opt-in procedure. This confirmation email serves to verify whether the owner of the email address as the data subject has authorized the receipt of the newsletter.
When registering for the newsletter, we also store the IP address of the computer system used by the data subject at the time of registration, as assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP), as well as the date and time of registration. The collection of this data is necessary in order to be able to trace the (possible) misuse of a data subject’s email address at a later point in time and therefore serves as a legal safeguard for the controller.
The personal data collected during the course of registration for the newsletter is used exclusively for sending our newsletter. Furthermore, subscribers to the newsletter could be informed by email if this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or a related registration, as could be the case in the event of changes to the newsletter offer or the change of technical circumstances. No personal data collected as part of the newsletter service will be passed on to third parties. The subscription to our newsletter can be cancelled by the data subject at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data that the data subject has given us for the newsletter mailing can be revoked at any time. For the purpose of revoking consent, a corresponding link can be found in each newsletter. Furthermore, it is also possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time directly on the website of the controller or to inform the controller of this in another way.
6.5. Newsletter tracking
The newsletters of Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH contain so-called “tracking pixels”. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in such emails that are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and log file analysis. This allows a statistical evaluation of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH may see if and when an email was opened by a data subject, and which links contained in the email were called up by the data subject.
Such personal data collected via the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters are stored and analyzed by the controller in order to optimize the newsletter mailing and to better adapt the content of future newsletters to the interests of the data subject. This personal data will not be disclosed to third parties. Data subjects are entitled at any time to revoke the separate declaration of consent given in this regard via the double opt-in procedure. After a revocation, this personal data will be deleted by the controller. Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH automatically interprets a cancellation of the receipt of the newsletter as a revocation.
6.6. Sending direct advertising
We use your email address, which we have received in connection with the sale of a good or service, to send you electronic advertising for our own goods or services that are similar to those you have already purchased from us, unless you have objected to this use. The provision of the email address is required for the conclusion of the contract. Failure to provide this data will result in the inability to enter into a contract.
Processing is based on Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. f of the GDPR from our overriding legitimate interest in direct advertising. You can object to this use of your email address at any time by notifying us. The contact details for exercising the objection can be found in the ‘About’ section. You can also use the link provided for this purpose in the promotional email. This does not incur any costs other than the transmission costs according to the prime rates.
6.7. Contact options via the website
Due to legal regulations, the website of Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH contains information that enables contact be made with our company quickly electronically, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of so-called “electronic mail” (email address). If a data subject contacts the controller by email or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject will be stored automatically. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the controller will be stored for the purposes of processing or contacting the data subject. This personal data is not passed on to third parties.
7. Data protection during applications and the application process
The controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of handling the application procedure. The processing may also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant sends corresponding application documents to the controller electronically, for example by email or via a Web form located on the website. If the data controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions. If the controller does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents shall be automatically deleted within one week after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller prevent such deletion. Other legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a burden of proof in a proceeding under Austria’s federal equal treatment legislation.
8. Cookies
The Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are placed and stored on a computer system via an Internet browser. They are used for recognition and storage of temporary data of the website visitor.
Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called “cookie ID”. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters by which websites and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.
Through the use of cookies, the Jaksche Kunststofftechnik GmbH can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.
By means of a cookie, the information and content on our website can be optimized in terms of the user. Cookies enable us, as already mentioned, to recognize the users of our website on their next visit, even after they have changed pages. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For example, the user of an website that uses cookies does not have to re-enter his or her access data each time he or she visits the website, because this is handled by the website and the cookie stored on the user’s computer system.
Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in the online store. The online store remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie. Some functions of our platform can therefore not be offered without the use of cookies. This requires that the browser is recognized even after a page change.
Processing is based on Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. f of the GDPR from our overriding legitimate interest in ensuring the optimal functionality of the website and a user-friendly and effective design of our content.
The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Web browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via a Web browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common Web browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Web browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.
Cookies are stored on your computer. Some cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. Therefore, you have full control over the use of cookies. In your browser, you can deactivate the saving of cookies, restrict this to certain websites or set up your Web browser (e.g. Chrome, Firefox, etc.) so that it notifies you when a cookie is sent. Cookies that have already been stored can be deleted by you at any time. However, please be aware that doing so will result in a restricted display of the website and limited user guidance.

9. Privacy policy on the use and application of Google AdSense
The controller has integrated Google AdSense on this website. Google AdSense is an online service that enables the placement of advertisements on third-party sites. Google AdSense is based on an algorithm that selects the advertisements displayed on third-party sites to match the content of the respective third-party site. Google AdSense allows interest-based targeting of the Web user, which is implemented by generating individual user profiles.
The operating company of the Web analytics service Google-AdSense is Google LLC. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). If you are habitually resident in the European Economic Area or Switzerland, Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland) is the data controller for your data. Accordingly, Google Ireland Limited is the Google affiliated company responsible for processing your data and ensuring compliance with applicable data protection laws. Both companies were acquired by parent company Alphabet Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA).
The purpose of the Google AdSense component is to integrate advertisements on our website. Google-AdSense sets a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. What cookies are has already been explained above. Setting the cookie allows Alphabet Inc. to analyze the use of our website. Each time one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the data controller and on which a Google AdSense component has been integrated, is opened, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically caused by the respective Google AdSense component to transmit data to Alphabet Inc. for the purpose of online advertising and the settlement of commissions. During this technical operation, Alphabet Inc. obtains Knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which Alphabet Inc. uses, among other things, to track the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently to enable commission settlements.
The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website, as shown already above, at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Web browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Web browser used would also prevent Alphabet Inc. from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. A cookie already set by Alphabet Inc. can also be deleted at any time via the Web browser or other software programs.
Google AdSense also uses so-called “tracking pixels”. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in Web pages to enable log file recording and log file analysis, which allows statistical analysis to be performed. Using the embedded tracking pixel enables Alphabet Inc. to see if and when a website was opened by a data subject, and which links were clicked by the data subject. Among other things, tracking pixels are used to evaluate the flow of visitors to a website.
Via Google AdSense, personal data and information, which also includes the IP address and is necessary for the collection and billing of the displayed advertisements, are transferred to Alphabet Inc. in the United States of America. This personal data is stored and processed in the United States of America. Alphabet Inc. may share this personal information collected through the technical process with third parties. Google-AdSense is explained in more detail at this link https://www.google.de/intl/de/adsense/start/.
You can permanently disable the use of cookies by Google by following the link below and downloading and installing the plug-in provided there: https://support.google.com/ads/answer/7395996?hl=de. Alternatively, you can prevent the use of cookies by third parties by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page at https://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ and implementing the further opt-out information provided there.

17. Payment method: Privacy policy for PayPal as a payment method
The controller has integrated components of PayPal on this website. PayPal is an online payment service provider. Payments are processed through so-called “PayPal accounts”, which are virtual personal or business accounts. In addition, PayPal offers the possibility of processing virtual payments via credit cards if a user does not maintain a PayPal account. A PayPal account is managed via an email address, which is why there is no conventional account number. PayPal allows you to initiate online payments to third parties or receive payments as well. PayPal also assumes trustee functions and offers buyer protection services.
The European operating company of PayPal is PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22–24 Boulevard Royal L-2449, Luxembourg.
If the data subject selects “PayPal” as a payment option during the ordering process in our online store, the data subject’s data is automatically transmitted to PayPal. By selecting this payment option, the data subject consents to the transmission of personal data required for payment processing.
The personal data transmitted to PayPal is usually the first name, surname, address, email address, IP address, telephone number, cell phone number, or other data necessary for payment processing. Personal data related to the respective order is also necessary for the processing of the purchase contract.
The purpose of the data transfer is payment processing and fraud prevention. The controller will transfer personal data to PayPal in particular if there is a legitimate interest for the transfer. The personal data exchanged between PayPal and the controller may be transferred by PayPal to credit bureaus. The purpose of this transmission is to check identity and creditworthiness.
PayPal may share personal data with affiliated companies and service providers or subcontractors to the extent necessary to fulfill its contractual obligations or to process the data on its behalf.
The data subject has the option of revoking their consent to the handling of their personal data by PayPal at any time. A revocation does not affect personal data that must necessarily be processed, used, or transmitted for (contractual) payment processing
18. Legal basis for data processing
In data protection, the so-called “prohibition with reservation of permission” applies. Accordingly, the processing of personal data is generally unlawful unless the data subject has consented to it or it is legitimized by a legally regulated reason for permission. We are obliged to inform you about the legal basis of data processing.
If we obtain your consent for the processing of personal data, Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. a of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In the case of processing operations that are necessary for the fulfillment of a contract concluded between you and us or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. b of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfillment of a legal obligation to which we are subject, such as legal retention and storage obligations, Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. c of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make processing of personal data necessary, Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. d of the GDPR is the legal basis.
If the processing is necessary to protect our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party and your interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms do not override the former interest, the processing of personal data is legitimized by Art. 6, Para. 1, lit. f of the GDPR.
18.1. Disclosure of personal data to third parties and processors
As a matter of principle, we do not pass on any personal data to third parties without your express consent. If, in the course of processing, we nevertheless disclose your data to third parties, transmit it to them, or otherwise grant them access to the data, this will also be done exclusively on the basis of one of the aforementioned legal grounds. We transmit data to payment service providers, for example, if this is necessary for the fulfillment of the contract. If we are required to do so by law or court order, we must disclose your information to entities entitled to receive it.
In some cases, we use carefully selected external service providers to process your data. Should data be passed on to service providers as part of so-called “order processing”, this is done on the basis of Art. 28 of the GDPR. Our order processors are carefully selected. We only engage processors that provide sufficient guarantees that appropriate technical and organizational measures are taken so that the processing is carried out in accordance with the requirements of the GDPR and ensures the protection of your rights.
18.2. Data transfer to third countries
The GDPR ensures an equally high level of data protection within the European Union. When selecting our service providers and cooperation partners, we therefore rely on European partners wherever possible when your personal data is to be processed. Only in exceptional cases will we have data processed outside the European Union or the European Economic Area in the context of using third-party services.
We only permit processing of your data in a third country if the special requirements of Art. 44 ff. of the GDPR are met. This means that the processing of your data may then only take place on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognized determination by the EU Commission of a level of data protection corresponding to the EU or the observance of officially recognized special contractual obligations, the so-called “standard contractual clauses”.
19. Deletion of data and storage period
We will only store your data for as long as is necessary for those purposes for which we collected your data.
The controller processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or where provided for by the European legislator/regulator or other law maker in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for commercial or tax law reasons, such as billing data for subscriptions. Your data will be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by these regulations expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.
If the purpose of storage no longer applies, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator/regulator or another competent law maker expires, the personal data will be blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions. In order to keep our work involved with data deletions within limits, we perform the deletion with the restoration of a backup.
20. Data subject rights
You are entitled to the following rights if the legal requirements are met:
- You have the right to request confirmation as to whether your personal data is being processed.
- You have the right to request information free of charge about which of your data is processed by us (cf. in detail Art. 15 of the GDPR).
- You have the right to request the correction or completion of incorrect or incomplete data concerning you (cf. in detail Art. 16 of the GDPR).
- You have the right to have your data deleted (cf. in detail Art 17 of the GDPR).
- You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data under certain conditions (cf. in detail Art 18 of the GDPR).
- You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in a structured, common, and machine-readable format (cf. in detail Art. 20 of the GDPR).
- You have the right to object to the processing of your data that is necessary to protect your legitimate interests or those of a third party (cf. in detail Art. 21, Paras 1–6 of the GDPR). This applies in particular with regard to the processing of your data for advertising purposes (cf. in detail Art. 6, Para. 1 f of the GDPR). You can send your revocation to office@cover-too.com.
21. Right of complaint to the supervisory authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of your place of residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement, pursuant to Article 77 of the GDPR, if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.
22. Existence of automated decision-making
As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.
