This data protection statement applies to data, including personal data which B. Braun collects about a data subject. Personal data may be individual data or source or from a combination of individual data by which data subject can be identified.
The process by which we gather, process and use the personal data of a data subject is in compliance with the Act, the APP as well as the data protection regulations of the Federal Republic and Germany and also of the European Union.
Under no circumstances will B. Braun pass on the personal data of a data subject to third parties outside of the B. Braun Group of companies (being B. Braun Melsungen AG and its subsidiaries worldwide) without the data subjects consent.
Within the B. Braun Group, compliance with legal requirements including this Act and with this Policy is monitored.
The nature and type of data we collect and the source of such data varies depending on the nature of the relationship we have with the data subject and may include:
When you visit our websites, our web servers save each access temporarily in a log file. The following data is captured and processed until automated deletion:
When this website is used purely for informational purposes, B. Braun only collects the personal data that is technically required in order to display and enable the use of the website (establishment of connection), for system securityand stability, for the technical administration of the network infrastructure and to optimise the website. The legal basis for this is a legitimate interest of B. Braun(Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR).
You may object to this data processing. If you object to the use of the data, please note that you may only be able to use our services to a limited extent.
This personal information is not processed beyond the cases indicated above, unless you expressly consent to further processing. (for further information, please see this Privacy Policy under section "Consent").

Data forwarded will be restriction to data necessary for delivery of the relevant services/ or as required by law.
Under the Act, a data subject has the right to access personal data which an organization holds about the data subject. At a data user’s request, we will inform you in writing and in accordance with applicable law, whether we have stored any personal data and if so, the data.
Data users have a right to correct and block such personal data. Data users may also withdraw consent to the processing and storage of personal data, if not needed for legal reasons or for processing and existing contractual relationship. Data may also be deleted if such data is no longer subject to retention policies.
In order to assist us in validating the identity of any person requiring access, we will ask for verification documents to substantiate identity.

Your data is stored by B. Braun for as long as required for certain purposes. Consequently, your data is deleted by B. Braun if and when:
unless storage periods stipulated by law apply. B. Braun may only delete your data when these retention periods have expired.
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 is necessary in order to commence and implement the relevant business relationship and fulfil the contractual obligations associated with it or that we are required by law to collect. Without this data, we will generally not be able to enter into the business relationship with you and fulfil 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 persons 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 minors and we assure that we do not knowingly collect personal data from minors, use it in any way or disclose it to third parties without authorisation.
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.
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. Your data, which 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.
This website uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as for example, the inquiries that you send to us as the website provider. You can recognise 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 SSL encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
If you submit inquiries to us via the contact form, we store your information, 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 this data without your consent. The data that arises in this context is 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 opted to be informed about future offers and products (e.g. newsletters, forms, etc.) from the B. Braun Group. In this context your personal data may be transferred to the United States to a contractually bound and carefully selected service provider. The level of data protection in the United Stated cannot be compared with European standards, which is why an adequate level of data protection cannot be guaranteed at all times. In order to guarantee the security of your data as well as possible, B. Braun takes the necessary protective measures. For example, your data is transferred to the United States in accordance with the principle of purpose limitation and data minimisation 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
We use the remarketing functions of the Salesforce Marketing Cloud of the service provider salesforce.com, Inc. The Landmark @ One Market Street, Suite 300, San Francisco, CA 94105, USA ("Salesforce"). If you have given your consent to receive our newsletters and visit our website via a newsletter, web beacons are used. This enables us to track the effectiveness of our newsletters, e.g. whether you have opened an email or which part of the newsletter was particularly interesting.
For this purpose, we use e.g. the tracking methods "Email Open Tracking" and "Email Link Tracking".
Email Open Tracking: Here we track whether you have opened the newsletter via the 1x1 pixel in the HTML template described below.
Email Link Tracking: Here we track whether a link was clicked within the email (click-through). For this purpose, the links are converted into trackable links by the Marketing Cloud.
Salesforce uses so-called web beacons in the majority of the emails sent. Web beacons (also called ClearGIFs or tracking pixels) are small graphics (GIF files approximately 1×1 in size) that are used on websites or in HTML emails, among other things. Web beacons fulfil similar functions as cookies, but are not noticeable to the user. In particular, web beacons can be used to obtain information about whether the email has been opened and whether the user's system is capable of receiving HTML emails. No personal data is collected via the web beacon.
If you would not like to receive email messages with web beacons, you can alternatively receive your emails in text format (not in the HTML format) by changing the appropriate settings within your email client and by blocking the receipt of HTML formatted mails.
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.
By signing up to receive a newsletter that is offered, you give your consent to the processing of your name and e-mail address and information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided. You are also confirming that you agree to receive the newsletter.
In the case of mailing, your address is also required. Your data is processed exclusively for the requested newsletter; your data is not used for any other purpose.

You can withdraw your consent to the processing of personal data, the e-mail address and its use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example via the "unsubscribe" link in the newsletter.
If you order the newsletter via our contact form, we process your request in our Salesforce Marketing Cloud (see section 15).

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.
In order to protect contact 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 to send a cryptographic task to your device. This task is solved in the background and as soon as it is 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:

This website uses Lead Forensics, a B2B sales and marketing enablement tool. It is operated by Lead Forensics, UK Headquarters, Communication House, 26 York Street, London, W1U 6PZ, UK.
The Lead Forensics tool uses a tracking code for identifying companies visiting our websites by their business IP addresses. This is not the same as cookies. The Lead Forensics tracking code only provides information that is readily available in the public domain. It does not and cannot provide individual, personal or sensitive data about who has visited our website. Under no circumstances will the data be used to personally identify individual visitors. If IP addresses are collected, they are anonymised immediately after collection. The information generated by the Lead Forensics tracking code is transferred to the Lead Forensics tool and processed and stored in the UK in a secure environment.
The Lead Forensics Tool does not provide us with IP addresses. It provides us with information about which companies have visited our website, the date and duration of their visit and the web pages they visit. This information allows us to analyse the use of our website and eventually contact these companies about their experience or for sales purposes. As an international company, to be able to guarantee you the best service, we transfer this information to our subsidiaries and distributors as necessary. Beyond this purpose, no personal data is passed on to third parties.

This website uses Adobe Target, a service provided by Adobe Systems Software Ireland Limited ("Adobe") to analyse and optimise the website.
With Adobe Target, so-called A/B tests or multivariate tests can be performed on the website. The software thereby controls a variant which is modified in comparison to the original version of the website (different design or content). In this way, the visitor's preferred variant can be found out and the website can be optimised according to the visitor’s needs. In these cases, the variants can also be controlled permanently for certain visitor segments. Adobe Target does not collect any IP addresses or personal information of users for this purpose. IP addresses are only used by Adobe Target for the duration of the session (in memory, never persistently). User behaviour is evaluated on the basis of quantitative methods.
Tests and variants are also controlled with the help of cookies. For further information on cookies and the opt-out options of our Cookie Consent function, please refer to our cookie policies.
You also have the option of manually deactivating Adobe Target by opting out of the cookie via this link: https://bbraunmelsungenag.tt.omtrdc.net/optout

Facebook Conversion Tracking
Within our website, we use the "Facebook pixel" of Meta Platforms Inc (USA). This allows users' behaviour 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 optimise advertising measures.
The data collected is anonymous for us, so it does not give us any indication of the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook 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 policy. You can enable Facebook as well as its partners to connect advertising ads to Facebook and including external websites. A cookie can also be stored on your computer for these purposes. To generally object to the use of cookies on your computer, you can set your Internet browser to prevent cookies from being placed on your computer in the future or to delete cookies that have already been placed. However, objecting all cookies can result in some functions on our websites no longer being executed.
LinkedIn Insight Conversion Tracking
We use the LinkedIn Insight Conversion Tool of LinkedIn Inc. (USA), which allows us to obtain information about the use of 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 enables LinkedIn to recognise you when you visit a website. LinkedIn uses this data to create anonymous ad activity reports and information about how you interact with our website.
You can deactivate the LinkedIn Insight Conversion Tool as well as interest-based advertising by opting out under the following link: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls/retargeting-opt-out

Twitter Conversion Tracking
We use the universal website tag from Twitter Inc. (Ireland) which allows us to obtain information about how visitors use our website and to use this information to present personalised Twitter advertising content tailored to their interests. For this purpose, a cookie is set in your browser that allows Twitter to recognise you when you visit a website. It also enables us to identify users who used their mobile device to view our ads on Twitter and later visit our website on a desktop computer. Twitter's Conversion Tracking allows us to assign conversions such as link clicks, retweets or "likes". The collected data is always in aggregated and anonymous form.
You can deactivate Twitter's interest-based advertising via several opt-out functions, which are explained here: https://help.twitter.com/de/safety-and-security/privacy-controls-for-tailored-ads.
We have agreed to the terms of Twitter's conversion tracking programme: https://legal.twitter.com/ads-terms/us.html#twitterconversiontrackingprogramt%26cs.
You can find more information on data protection on Twitter at https://twitter.com/de/privacy.
Google Ads & Conversion Tracking
We place Google Ads advertisements to draw attention to our products. . We use "Google Conversion Tracking", a service provided by Google Inc (USA). These ads are displayed when users enter search queries on websites of the Google advertising network. We have the option of combining our ads with certain search terms. We use cookies to place advertisements based on users' previous visits on our website.
When a user clicks on an ad, a cookie is set on the user's computer by Google. Further information on the cookie technology used can also be found in Google's information on website statistics and privacy policy.
With the help of this technology, Google and B. Braun are notified when a user clicks on an advertisement and is redirected to our websites. The information obtained in this context is exclusively used for statistical analysis to optimise the ads. We do not receive any information that personally identifies a user. 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 on our website that was tagged with a conversion tag. These statistics allow 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 prevent the storage of the cookie required for these technologies, for example, via the settings of your browser. In this case, your visit will not be included in the user statistics.
You also have the option of selecting the types of Google ads or deactivating interest-based ads on Google via the ad setting. Alternatively, you can object the use of cookies by third parties by accessing the Network Advertising Initiative's disabling tool. See: http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ and http://www.youronlinechoices.com/
However, B. Braun and Google still receive statistical information about how many users have visited this website and when. If you do not wish to be included in these statistics, you can prevent this by using additional programs for your browser (e.g. the Ghostery add-on).
Funnelytics
We use Funnelytics by Funnelytics Inc (Canada). This is a technology service that helps us better understand our users' experiences (how they navigate websites, how they react to different websites, what content they like and dislike, etc.). This allows us to build and maintain our service with feedback from users. Funnelytics uses cookies to collect data about user behaviour and devices used.
The data collected by Funnelytics are IP address (captured and stored in anonymised form only), device type (unique device identifiers), browser information and geographical location (country only).

B. Braun maintains its own sites on various social networks in order to enable an exchange with interested users or customers and to be able to inform these groups about the B. Braun product portfolio. B. Braun does not process any user data in social networks itself, and can only analyse and use the data that have been anonymised by Facebook, for example. In the process, user data may be transferred to countries outside the European Union.. Furthermore, the user data collected is processed for marketing purposes, for example to define target groups and then display targeted advertising material to them on the respective 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 behaviour, interests and similar.. User profiles on the respective platforms can also contain data that is stored irrespective of the end device. The legal basis for this kind of processing is the legitimate interest of B. Braun in functional and 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 a data subject affected by the processing, you can assert various rights against the controller (more information see section 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 processed data and are the only ones who can take appropriate measures. Of course, we are at your disposal if you have any further questions in this regard.
In order to provide you with as much relevant information as possible regarding data processing in social networks, we also refer to the privacy policies of the individual platform providers:
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy
Linked-In: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy

Third-party content may be used within the B. Braun website (so-called plugins). These can appear in the form of YouTube videos, RSS feeds or graphics of other websites or also by social media buttons such as the Facebook share button.
If you are on a B. Braun website, on which content of third-parties is integrated, a connection will be set up with the respective social network under certain circumstances. This means that the content of the buttons can be transferred to your browser and integrated into the website by it. This means that the respective provider always receives the information that you have opened the B. Braun website. It is irrelevant whether you are a member of a social network or not logged into such a network. Furthermore, irrespective of whether you actually interact with the embedded content, information is automatically collected by the social network. The following data may be transferred hereby: IP address, browser information and operating systems, screen resolution, installed browser plugins (e.g. Adobe Flash Player), origin of visitors (if you followed a link) and the URL of the current website.

Lead Gen Forms and Leads Ads are 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 contact depending on the content of the form. Users who have filled out and sent such a form on LinkedIn or Facebook are considered data subjects of the processing and can assert various rights against the controllers (more information see section 27). Since the form can only be sent if the user consents to the processing and the transfer of the data to B. Braun, the legal basis is the user’s consent.
When you use our extranet, you must enter some personal data which we process to orientate our offered range of service to your needs based upon this.

Please note that in addition to the data you enter, the IP address from which you visit our extranet is also stored and may be used to secure claims and for evidentiary purposes. Further processing of the IP address data does not take place; instead, logging occurs exclusively within the scope of preventive measures. In the process, it is also ensured that it is not possible to draw any conclusions regarding a specific extranet user.

Deletion of your data
We process your personal data as long as necessary or permissible according to the statutory provisions and/or within the scope of the business relationship. Subsequently, all your personal data is deleted, provided that there are no statutory storage periods that conflict the deletion.
Online shop
We provide an online shop on our website. To handle your order, we require your personal data to implement the contract:
The legal basis for the processing of data as part of handling your order is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.
You have the right to the following at any time:
Objection to the processing of your data based on legitimate interests
You also have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time if this is carried out by B. Braun on the basis of a legitimate interest (pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR). As a result, the processing of your data will be halted, unless B. Braun can show that there are statutory provisions concerning this or that it has grounds to continue processing the data based on legitimate interests. This is the case, for example, if data is still required in order to be able to assert legal claims where applicable.
Objection to processing for direct marketing purposes
You can object to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of advertising and data analysis at any time ("advertising objection").
On this point and for further questions concerning personal data, you can contact us here or using the contact information under section “Your contacts for data protection matters.” Upon request, we will inform you in writing if and which personal information we process about you, in accordance with applicable law.
