The operator of this website and the responsible controller in terms of data protection is:

B. Braun Melsungen AG
Carl-Braun-Strasse 1

Germany

This Privacy Policy applies to your data, including personal data, collected by B. Braun. Personal data is data or a combination of individual data by means of which you can be identified. We process your personal data in compliance with the data protection laws of the Federal Republic of Germany and the European General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). In no case will we forward your personal data to third parties outside of the B. Braun Group for advertising or marketing purposes without your consent.

As an international company, we work together with external service providers. To the extent that processed data contains personal information, corresponding contractual agreements and organisational measures have been enacted according to applicable law which ensure the security of your personal data. Our external service providers are bound by our instructions and are regularly monitored.

In our company, compliance is monitored by our data protection officers. Our employees are trained to handle personal data and have committed to comply with the respective data protection legislation .

As a general rule, our website can be used without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (e.g. name, address or e-mail addresses) are collected, this is always done, as far as possible, on a voluntary basis.

We would like to point out that data transmission on the internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may involve gaps in security. We try to protect your data from unauthorised access by third parties by taking precautions such as pseudonymisation, data economy, observing deletion periods and taking into account the current state of technology. Despite these protective measures, however, we cannot completely rule out unlawful processing by third parties.

When you visit our website, our web servers save each access temporarily to a log file. The following information is captured and processed until automated deletion:

• Anonymized IP address of the computer requesting the information
• Date and time of access
• Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
• Access status/http status code
• Volume of data transferred in each case
• Operating system and its interface
• Identification data of the browser and operating system used
• Language and version of browser software
• Name and URL of the data retrieved, content of request
• Report of whether the retrieval was successful
• Website from which the access takes place
• Name of your Internet service provider

When this website is used purely for informational purposes, B. Braun Melsungen AG collects only those personal data that are necessary in technical terms in order to display the website and enable the use thereof (establishment of a connection), for system security and stability, for the technical administration of the network structure and to optimize the website. The legal basis for this is a legitimate interest on the part of B. Braun Melsungen AG (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

You may object to this data processing. Insofar as you object to the use of this data, we hereby inform you that our services may only be usable to limited degree.

This personal information is not processed beyond the cases indicated above, unless you explicitly consent to further processing. (For further information, pleaserefer to “Consent” in this Privacy Policy).

In accordance with the principle of data avoidance and data economy set out in the General Data Protection Regulation, we only process personal information on our website when it is either required for your desired purpose, we are obligated to do so due to legal regulations or contracts, if we have a legitimate interest and/or if you voluntarily provide the information to us.

When entering personal or business information (e.g. email address, name, address), the disclosure of your information is performed on an explicitly voluntary basis.

We process your contact and business-related information based on statutory regulations in connection with existing or pending business relationships. In addition, with your input, you declare your consent for the information entered to be processed for the purpose designated by you. We process your provided information only as long as required for the intended purpose and delete it after fulfilling the purpose or after expiration of the respective storage periods. Processing does not occur for any other purpose. Insofar as you object to the processing of this data, we hereby inform you that our services may only be usable to limited degree. To provide you with comprehensive offerings, your data are transferred and used within the B. Braun Group (for information on the B. Braun Group, click here.)

The following are possible ways we may use the information:

Due to statutory regulations:

• Execution of our General Terms and Conditions
• Management of our business
• Protection from or identification of possible fraudulent transactions

Based on contractual purposes:

• Payment processing for purchases and other services
• Processing your application documents

Based on our legitimate interest:

• Determining the effectiveness of our advertising
• Developing new products and services
• Analyzing the use of our products, services and websites
• Knowledge of how you reached our website

Your consent to processing of your personal data can be revoked at any time with effect for the future. Your consent may be required in various cases:

• to receive newsletters (see section 17 for further information)
• sending of samples, bonuses, , products and information
• signing up for prize competitions, programs or offers at your request Delivery of other services that we have offered you
• surveys on our websites
• development and provision of advertising tailored to your interests
• making contact via our contact forms form (see section 15 for further information)

Your data are stored by B. Braun Melsungen AG only as long as they are required for certain purposes. Consequently, your data are erased by B. Braun Melsungen AG if and when:

• the relevant legal basis for the processing of your data no longer exists,
• the purpose of processing of your data no longer exists,
• you withdraw your consent to the processing of your data,
• a legal obligation makes it necessary to erase them, or
• you have objected to the processing of your personal data,

unless storage periods stipulated by law apply. For example, the German Fiscal Code (AO) and Commercial Code (HGB) provide for certain storage periods. B. Braun Melsungen AG cannot erase your data on a final basis until these periods have elapsed.

This does not apply to data whose erasure would involve disproportionate effort. In cases like these, B. Braun is deemed to have a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR in storing your data.

We do not use fully automated decision-making pursuant to Art. 22GDPR to establish and implement the business relationship. Should we use these methods in individual cases, we will inform you thereof separately when required by law.

We use automated methods to process your data in part, with the objective of evaluating certain personal aspects (profiling). We use profiling to provide products that may interest you on a targeted basis, for example. 

Within the scope of our business relationship, you are required to provide the personal data that are necessary in order to commence and implement the relevant business relationship and fulfill the contractual obligations associated with it or that we are required by law to collect. Without these data, we will typically not be able to enter into the business relationship with you and fulfill the obligations that arise from it.

This website contains links to websites of third parties over whose content B. Braun has no influence. After clicking on a link, you leave the sphere of responsibility of the B. Braun Group. Processing of data therefore no longer takes place within our influence. 

Children and people under the age of 18 normally do not transmit personal data to us without the consent of their parents or legal guardians. We do not request personal data from children and we affirm that we do not collect personal data from children, nor do we use it in any way or disclose it to third parties without authorization.

The Internet is a globally open platform. Due to the Internet's inherent mode of operation and the systemic risks involved, any data transmissions are made at your own risk. For your security, we exclusively offer our services via encrypted transmission.

We transfer your data to countries outside the European Union / European Economic Area (third countries) only to the extent that

• it is necessary in order to perform your orders,
• it is required by law or
• you have given us your consent.

To the extent that we transfer your data to a third country or an international organization, this takes place in accordance with the GDPR. Beyond that, we only transfer the strict minimum amount of data necessary, in line with the principle of data minimization.

In some cases, we use service providers whose corporate headquarters, parent company or sub-contractors are located in a third country. Your data is only  transferred if the European Commission has decided that an adequate level of protection exists in a third country (Art. 45 GDPR), appropriate safeguards are provided (e.g. standard contractual clauses issued by the European Commission) and enforceable rights and effective remedies are available to you as a data subject. We have contractually regulated compliance with the GDPR and its requirements with the service providers. 

Our websites also use so-called cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser. They do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offering more user-friendly, effective and secure. Some cookies (so-called "functional cookies", e.g. for language settings and ordering processes) are those that are absolutely necessary to ensure essential functions of the website. Without these, the website cannot be used as intended.

There are two different types of cookies:

Transient cookies: Most of the cookies we use are so-called "transient cookies", in particular "session cookies". These cookies are automatically deleted after the end of your visit. They enable us to recognise your browser when you return to our website within the same session.

Persistent cookies: Other cookies, so-called "persistent cookies", are only automatically deleted from your end device after a predefined period of time (which varies depending on the type of cookie).

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or generally exclude cookies as well as activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If you refuse the use of cookies (a possible setting in your browser), the use of our website is still possible (restricted under certain circumstances). Further information about the third party tools we are using and detailed cookie information about them can be found in our "Cookie Settings" in the footer of this website (you can see it when you scroll down to the end of this page). With the cookie settings, you are also able to edit your personal settings in terms of cookie storage.

We have taken extensive precautions to protect the security of your data. The data transmitted to us that you have entered e.g. in HTML websites (contact forms) are transmitted in an encrypted form (SSL - Secure Socket Layer) via the public data network to B. Braun, where they are saved and processed.

This website uses an SSL encryption for reasons of security and for the protection of the transmission of confidential contents, such as for example the inquiries that you send us as the website operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If the SSL encryption is activated the data, which you transmit to us, cannot be read by third parties.

If you submit inquiries to us via the contact form, we store your information from the inquiry form, including the contact information you provide there, in order to process your inquiry and in the event of any follow-up inquiries. We do not share these data without your consent. The data that arise in this context are deleted once storage thereof is no longer necessary, or processing thereof is restricted if there are statutory storage obligations.

By giving us your consent when contacting us via our form, you have decided to receive information on future offers and products (e.g. newsletters, forms, etc.) from the B. Braun Group. Within the scope of the use of this portal, your data may be transferred to the United States, to a carefully selected service provider who is under contract with us. The data protection in place in the United States is not comparable to the German and/or European standards; as a result, adequate data protection cannot be guaranteed in all cases. To ensure the security of your data as well as possible nonetheless, our company takes the necessary protective measures. For example, your data are transferred to the United States in keeping with the principle of purpose limitation and data economy, with the result that only the information that is absolutely necessary and has been provided by you is stored.

Use of the Salesforce Marketing Cloud

Your personal data will not be forwarded to third parties (i.e. outside the B. Braun Group) unless you have given us your prior consent. Excluded from this provision is the forwarding to service partners, such as for example parcel service providers or freight forwarders, if the transmission is necessary for the order processing or delivery of the goods.

The logistics service providers receive the data required for delivery for their own use. We limit the transferred data to the necessary extent.

In addition, other service providers are involved, such as IT service providers or the hosting service provider for the website. These companies work for B. Braun within the framework of so-called processing on behalf. Braun and may only use personal data in accordance with our instructions. B. Braun has obligated these service providers to the General Data Protection Regulation as per contract and monitors these companies.

Further excluded is  the transfer of data for the management of orders, the delivery of goods or services, and for accounting purposes within the B. Braun Group. To transfer the data, it may be stored in the cloud application salesforce.com, Inc. The Landmark @ One Market Street, Suite 300, San Francisco, CA 94105, USA ("Salesforce") (see section 15). Beyond this, no data is transferred to third parties without your consent.

In all these cases, the data is transferred in accordance with the applicable national and European data protection provisions; the scope of the data transferred is limited to the necessary minimum.

This website uses Adobe Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Adobe Systems Software Ireland Limited ("Adobe"). Adobe Analytics uses cookies. If the information regarding use of the website that is generated by the cookie is transferred to an Adobe server, then the settings ensure that the IP address is anonymised before geolocation and replaced by a generic IP address before storage. Adobe utilizes this information on behalf of the operator of this website in order to evaluate usage of this website by the user, to compile reports on website activity for the website operator and to perform additional services connected with use of the website and the Internet in respect of the website operator.  The IP address transferred by your browser as part of Adobe Analytics is not combined with other data from Adobe. You can prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly. However, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of this website. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) to Adobe and the processing of this data by adjusting your privacy policy settings here.

We have concluded a data processing  contract with Adobe and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Adobe Analytics.

To protect forms on our website from spam and misuse, we use the "Friendly Captcha" service from Friendly Captcha GmbH (Germany). By using this service, it is possible to distinguish whether the corresponding input is of human origin or is abusive due to automated machine processing.

The tool prevents automated and abusive requests by so-called "bots". As part of this process, your IP address is captured by Friendly Captcha in order to send a cryptographic task to your device. This task is solved in the background and once solved, a confirmation is sent by Friendly Captcha to the server that this is a natural person.

In this regard, Friendly Captcha processes and stores the following data:

• IP address of the requesting computer (anonymized via one-way hashing).
• Information about the browser and operating system used
• Anonymized counter per IP address to control the cryptographic tasks
• Website from which the access took place (referrer URL)

For more information on this data processing, please visit the Friendly Captcha website: https://friendlycaptcha.com/legal/privacy-end-users/

Facebook conversion tracking

Within our Internet presence we use the "Facebook pixel" from Meta Platforms Inc. (USA). This allows users' behavior to be tracked after they have seen or clicked on a Facebook ad. This process is used to evaluate the effectiveness of Facebook advertisements for statistical and market research purposes and can help to optimize advertising measures. 

The data collected is anonymous to us, so it does not give us any indication of the identity of the users. However, Facebook stores and processes the data so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Facebook data usage guidelines. You can enable Facebook as well as its partners to connect advertising ads to Facebook and including on external websites. A cookie can also be stored on your computer for these purposes. In order to reject the use of cookies on your computer in general, you can set your internet browser so that cookies can no longer be stored on your computer in the future or cookies that have already been stored will be deleted. However, disabling all cookies can result in some functions on our internet pages no longer being executed. 

LinkedIn Insight conversion tracking

We use LinkedIn Inc.'s (USA) LinkedIn Insight conversion tracking Tool, which allows us to obtain information about how we use our website and to present advertising content that is tailored to your interests on other websites. For this purpose, a cookie with a validity of 120 days is set in your browser, which allows LinkedIn to recognize you when you visit a website. LinkedIn uses this information to create anonymous ad activity reports and information about how you interact with our site.

You can deactivate the LinkedIn Insight Conversion Tool as well as the interest-based advertising by opt-out under the following link: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls/retargeting-opt-out

If you are a LinkedIn member, click the "Decline on LinkedIn" box. Other visitors click on "Reject".

Twitter conversion tracking

We use the universal website tag of Twitter Inc. (USA), which allows us to obtain information about how visitors use our website and use this information to present personalized Twitter Ad Content that is tailored to their interests. For this purpose, a cookie is set in your browser, which allows Twitter to recognize you when you visit a website. It also enables us to identify users who have used their mobile device to view our advertising on Twitter and later came to our website on a desktop computer. Twitter’s Conversion Tracking allows us to assign conversions such as link clicks, retweets or “like” data. The collected data is always in aggregated and anonymous form.  

You can deactivate Twitter's interest-based advertising via several opt out functions that are explained here: https://help.twitter.com/en/safety-and-security/privacy-controls-for-tailored-ads

We agreed to the terms of the Twitter conversion tracking program: https://legal.twitter.com/ads-terms/us.html#twitterconversiontrackingprogramt%26cs

You can find more information on data protection on Twitter at https://twitter.com/en/privacy

Google Ads & conversion tracking 

We place Google Ads advertisements to draw attention to our products. In the scope of this activity, we use Google conversion tracking, a service provided by Google LLC (USA). These advertisements are displayed when users enter search queries on the websites of the Google advertising network. We have the option to combine our advertisements with certain search terms. We use cookies to place advertisements based on the prior visits of a user on our website.  

When a user clicks on an advertisement, Google saves a cookie in the user’s computer. Further information on the associated cookie technology can also be found in Google’s information on website statistics and privacy regulations. 

With the help of this technology, Google and we as a customer are notified when a user clicks on an advertisement and is redirected to our webpages. The information obtained in this context is exclusively used for the statistical analysis of advertising optimisation. We do not receive any information that personally identifies visitors. The statistics provided to us by Google include the total number of users who clicked on one of our ads and, if applicable, whether they were redirected to a page of our website that includes a conversion tag. These statistics enable us to understand which search terms led to the most frequent clicks on our ads and which advertisements resulted in a user filling out the contact form. 

You can take steps to prevent the storage of the cookies required for these technologies, for example in your browser settings. In this case, your visit will not be reflected in user statistics. 

You also have the option to select the types of Google ads in the display setting or to deactivate interest-based ads in the Google website. As an alternative, you can opt out of the use of cookies by third parties by visiting the Opt-Out help site of the Network Advertising Initiative. For more details, visit: http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ and http://www.youronlinechoices.com/

However, our company and Google will continue to receive statistical information about the number of users who visited this website and when. If you do not wish to be included in these statistics, you can prevent inclusion with the help of additional browser programs (e.g. the Ghostery add-on).

B. Braun Melsungen AG maintains its own sites on various social networks in order to enable dialogue with interested users or clients and be able to inform these groups about the B. Braun Melsungen AG product portfolio. B. Braun Melsungen AG does not process any user data in social networks itself, and can only analyze and use the data that have been anonymized by Facebook, for example. In the process, user data may be transferred to countries outside the European Union. In addition, the user data collected are processed for marketing purposes, for example to define target groups and then display advertising materials to these groups on a targeted basis on the relevant social media platform. To make this possible, the social network/the relevant provider of the social network frequently stores cookies that contain the users’ online behavior, interests and similar. Use profiles on the relevant platforms can also contain data that are stored irrespective of the device. The legal basis for this kind of data processing is the legitimate interest of B. Braun Melsungen AG in functional, stable communication with users via the respective online presence.

The social media providers may request your consent to the relevant data processing. In this case, the legal basis for the data processing would be that specific consent.

As the data subject affected by the data processing, you can assert various rights with respect to the controller (for more information, see point 25). Please note, however, that as a basic principle, exercising these rights as a data subject makes the most sense if you do so directly with the platform provider. As a general rule, only the platform providers have direct access to the data that are processed, and they are the only ones that can take appropriate measures. Naturally, we are happy to hear from you if you have any further questions about this.

To provide you with as much relevant information as possible regarding the processing of data on social networks, we would also like to refer you to the data protection and privacy statements of the individual platform providers:

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy

Linked-In: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy

Twitter: https://twitter.com/en/privacy

Within the Internet presence of B. Braun it may occur that contents of third parties are used (so-called “plugins”). These can appear in the form of YouTube videos, RSS-Feeds or graphics of other websites or also by social media pushbuttons, such as for example the share button of Facebook.

If you are on a website of B. Braun, on which contents of third parties are integrated, under certain circumstances a connection will be set up with the respective social network. The content of the pushbuttons may be transmitted to your browser hereby and be integrated into the website hereby. This means that the respective provider always receives the information that your have called the B. Braun website. It is not relevant in this case whether you are a member of a social network or are not logged into such a network. Furthermore, irrespective whether you actually act with the integrated content, information will be automatically collected by the social network. The following data can be transmitted hereby: IP address, browser information and operating systems, screen resolution, installed browser plugins (e.g. Adobe Flash Player), origin of the visitor (if you have followed a link) and the URL of the current website.

If you are logged into one of the social networks during the use of the website of B. Braun, under certain circumstances the information about the call of the website will be linked with your member data and saved. If you are a member of a social network and do not want this data to be transmitted you must logout of the social network before visiting the B. Braun website.

B. Braun has no influence over the scope of the data collected by the social networks. For information on the nature, scope and purpose of data processing, the further processing of the data and your rights and possible settings in this regard to protect your privacy, please see the relevant social network’s data protection and privacy provisions.

You can access the Google Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy

The B. Braun Group uses the ad format "Lead Gen Forms" on LinkedIn and so-called "Lead Ads" on Facebook. Both ad formats involve forms that have already been partially pre-filled with LinkedIn/Facebook profile data, with which users can register for a B. Braun event or request a contact, depending on the content of the respective form.

Users who have filled out and sent such a form on LinkedIn or Facebook are considered data subjects of the data processing and can assert various rights against the data controllers (more information under section 27). Since the form can only be sent if the user consents to the data processing, the legal basis is the "consent" of the data subject.
