In addition, we also hereby provide you information on your rights and identify relevant contacts. This information applies to the domain specified above as well as to other websites that we host online, if these are explicitly referenced in this statement. Personal data includes all information that identifies you individually, e.g. name, address, email address, IP address, data about website use.
In case of purely informational use of our website, which means when you do not register, log in or otherwise transmit any additional information to us, we initially collect and process only the personal data that your browser and your internet provider transmit to our server. This involves data that is needed for technical reasons in order to display the website and to ensure the security and stability of our site. Specifically, this is the shortened and thus anonymous IP address (the reduction excludes person-specific identifiers and thus, a personal relationship), the website, the site you last visited (referrer), the websites belonging to E.ON One GmbH that you visited, the names of the retrieved files, the date and time of the retrieval, the operating system and version of browser installed on your PC. We also store the aforementioned data in log files. This occurs based on legitimate interests, Art. 6(1) lit. f) GDPR, in order to ensure that the website functions properly. In addition, we use the data to improve our online presence and to ensure its security. However, none of the aforementioned data is stored together with other personal information. Log files are stored for a maximum of 7 days. In order for the website to operate properly and to fulfil our own obligations, we forward your data to our service providers and in turn receive data from them. This is also applicable if you contact us in the ways specified by us (emails, forms, newsletters, chat inquiries, contests) or use other offers on our website.
In addition to the aforementioned data, when you visit our website, data is stored on your computer in so-called “cookies” and in the local storage of your browser (hereinafter collectively referred to as “cookies”).

Our websites (as well as emails) may contain small, transparent image files, called "pixels," or lines of code ("scripts") to record how you interact with them.

In addition, we obtain your consent for certain processings. When issuing the initial Cookie Notice and obtaining your consent, we refer to this Privacy Policy. For the duration of your visit, so-called session cookies are set. These store a so-called session ID, through which different requests of your browser can be assigned to the common session and make your surfing experience on our website a more pleasant one for you. Session cookies can be used to recognise your computer when you return to our website. Session cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. In addition, we use technically necessary persistent cookies. Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which can differ from one cookie to another.
