Privacy & data protection
Data protection
We are pleased that you are visiting our website and thank you for your interest in our company.
For us, data protection is not just a legal obligation, but an important tool for increasing transparency in our daily handling of your personal data. The protection of your personal data (hereinafter referred to as “data”) is important to us. Below we would like to inform you in detail about what data is collected when you visit our website and use our offerings there and how we will subsequently process or use it, as well as what accompanying protective measures we have taken from a technical and organizational perspective.

The responsible party within the meaning of the applicable data protection regulations is Howden Caninenberg GmbH, see our legal notice .

Collection and use of your data
It is generally possible to use our website without providing any personal data. Nevertheless, personal data is sometimes processed. You can see when this is the case in the following illustrations.
Informational use
For the purely informational use of our websites, it is generally not necessary for you to provide personal data.
In this case, we only collect and use the data that your internet browser automatically sends to us, such as:
- Date and time of access to one of our websites
- Your browser type
- the browser settings
- the operating system used
- the last page you visited
- the amount of data transferred and the access status (file transferred, file not found, etc.) as well
- Your IP address.
We collect and use this data exclusively in non-personal form during an informational visit. This is done to enable the use of the websites you access, for statistical purposes and to improve our Internet offering. We only store the IP address for the duration of your visit; no personal evaluation takes place.
Contact forms
You can get in touch with us using contact forms on various subpages. The information collected in the contact form (subject, name, company, telephone, email address) as well as your message will only be used by us for the purpose of answering your query. Once processing is completed, the information will be deleted. Data will only be retained for a maximum of 10 years as part of the legally required archiving of email traffic (emails are business and commercial letters).
Your data will only be passed on to other third parties if we are legally obliged to do so.
Contact employees via email
You can contact us by sending us an email. You can send these, for example, to [email protected] or to personalized email addresses of our employees. The data that we receive by sending your email to us (for example: your name, your email address and your message itself) will only be used by us for the purpose of answering your query. Once processing is completed, the information will be deleted. Data is only retained for a maximum of 10 years as part of the legally required archiving of email traffic (emails are business and commercial letters).
Your data will only be passed on to other third parties if we are legally obliged to do so.
When communicating via email, we cannot guarantee complete data security, so we recommend that you use the postal service for information that requires a high level of confidentiality.
Request for quotation
You can send us a quote request using a form on various subpages. The information collected in the form (subject, name, company, telephone, email address) as well as your message will only be used by us for the purpose of answering your query. Once processing is completed, the information will be deleted. Data will only be retained for a maximum of 10 years as part of the legally required archiving of email traffic (emails are business and commercial letters).
However, your information will not be deleted if the processing of your data is necessary for the fulfillment of a contract to which you are a party or to carry out pre-contractual measures. In this case, the processing is lawful in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b) GDPR.
Your data will be deleted if storage is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose and there is no obligation to store it in an audit-proof manner.
ComplyAdvantage
Before and after the conclusion of the contract, we regularly carefully check whether there are any obstacles to the conclusion of the contract or the further implementation of the contract with you, such as EU and US sanctions. For this we use the ComplyAdvantage tool. This is an AI-based tool that merges and compares the status of politically exposed persons (PEP) and sanctions lists. If a hit occurs, a clerk carefully checks whether the person with whom a contractual relationship is to be entered into is actually the person on the sanctions list. For more information about ComplyAdvantage, visit https://complyadvantage.com/terms-and-conditions
The names or pseudonyms of the people are inevitably processed, as is their date of birth for the purpose of more precise identification. Without this personal data, a more detailed check would not be possible.
Data processing is also limited to the necessary period of 6 months, i.e. we delete the personal data no later than 6 months after we have decided whether or not a contractual relationship has been entered into with you.
If there is an existing contractual relationship, storage is limited to 3 years, meaning we will delete your personal data no later than 4 years after termination of the contract.
Legal basis for processing
The legal basis for the processing, testing and use of the ComplyAdvantage tool is Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b and Letter c in conjunction with Letter f GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in compliance with the prohibitory standards (so-called anti-terror regulations of the EU and the USA) and not being sanctioned by the relevant authorities. We are also legally obliged to compare these sanctions obligations.
Service provider used
IVXS UK Ltd, trading under the trading name ComplyAdvantage, has its registered office at 90 Long Acre, 4th Floor, London, WC2E 9RA, UK.
We use the tool as part of an IT agreement with the parent company Howden Broking Limited (UK). For this purpose, order processing contracts were concluded in order to comply with the requirements of Art. 28 GDPR and to guarantee your data protection rights. Attention was paid to the existence of appropriate technical and organizational measures. We use ComplyAdvantage with our own account, so that separate data processing from the other companies in the Howden Group is guaranteed.
Damage report
You can submit a damage report using a form on various subpages. The information collected in the form (subject, name, company, telephone, email address) as well as your damage report will be stored by us if you are a contractual partner of ours. In this case, the processing is lawful in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b) GDPR.
Your data will be deleted if storage is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose and there is no obligation to store it in an audit-proof manner.
Applications / job offers
You can find job offers on various subpages. It is important to HOWDEN CANINENBERG GMBH to ensure the highest possible protection of your data during the application process. All personal data that is collected and processed by us as part of an email application is protected against unauthorized access and manipulation by technical and organizational measures. Nevertheless, we cannot guarantee complete data security when applying by email. This is particularly not the case because you send us your application documents unencrypted by email. We therefore recommend that you use the postal service for information that requires a high level of confidentiality. As soon as the application process for a position is completed, we will delete all applicant data.
