Where consent has been sought, processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR and Section 25(1) of the TDDDG, insofar as the consent covers the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.
We have entered into a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the service mentioned above. This is a contract required under data protection law, which ensures that the service provider processes the personal data of our website visitors only in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.
The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
When you use this website, various items of personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. It is not possible to guarantee complete protection of data against access by third parties.
The organisation responsible for data processing on this website is:
Modico GmbH & Co KG
Auenstraße 19
D-86438 Kissing
Phone: +49 (8233) 73863-0
Email: info@modico.com
The data controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).
Unless a more specific retention period is stated elsewhere in this privacy policy, we will retain your personal data until the purpose for which it is processed no longer applies. If you submit a valid request for erasure or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be erased, provided we have no other legally permissible grounds for retaining your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the data will be deleted once these grounds no longer apply.
Provided that you have consented to the processing of your data, we process your personal data on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR, where special categories of data as defined in Article 9(1) of the GDPR are processed. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Article 49(1)(a) of the GDPR. Where you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access to information on your device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), data processing is also carried out on the basis of Section 25(1) of the TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time. If your data is required for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. Furthermore, where your data is required to comply with a legal obligation, we process it on the basis of Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR. Data processing may also take place on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The relevant legal bases in each individual case are set out in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.
As part of our business activities, we collaborate with various external organisations. In some cases, this requires the transfer of personal data to these external organisations. We only disclose personal data to external organisations where this is necessary for the performance of a contract, where we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. the transfer of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the transfer pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the transfer of data. When using data processors, we only disclose our customers’ personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You may withdraw any consent you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out up to the point of withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ARTICLE 6(1)( E or F of the GDPR, you have the right at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to object to the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. PLEASE REFER TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY FOR THE RELEVANT LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA, UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING IS NECESSARY FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 21(1) OF THE GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS BEING PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSES OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING, INSOFAR AS IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSES OF DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 21(2) OF THE GDPR).
In the event of infringements of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work or the place where the alleged infringement occurred. This right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract provided to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another data controller, this will only take place to the extent that it is technically feasible.
In accordance with the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to receive, free of charge, information about your stored personal data, its source and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, and, where applicable, the right to have this data rectified or erased. You may contact us at any time regarding this matter or with any further questions about personal data.
You have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. You may contact us at any time to do so. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data – apart from its storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the purposes of establishing, exercise or defence of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
This website uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential information, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the website operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address bar in your browser changes from „http://“ to „https://“ and by the padlock icon in your browser’s address bar.
If SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you send to us cannot be intercepted by third parties.
We hereby object to the use of contact details published in accordance with the legal requirement to provide an imprint for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and information material. The operators of this website expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising material being sent, for example via spam emails.
Our website uses what are known as „cookies“. Cookies are small data packets and do not cause any damage to your device. They are stored on your device either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies). Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or your web browser deletes them automatically.
Cookies may be set by us (first-party cookies) or by third-party companies (known as third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable certain third-party services to be integrated into websites (e.g. cookies used to process payment services).
Cookies serve various purposes. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g. the shopping basket function or the display of videos). Other cookies may be used to analyse user behaviour or for advertising purposes.
Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide specific functions you have requested (e.g. the shopping basket function) or to optimise the website (e.g. cookies used to measure website traffic) are stored on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies to ensure the technically fault-free and optimised provision of its services. Where consent has been sought for the storage of cookies and similar recognition technologies, processing takes place exclusively on the basis of this consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR and Section 25(1) of the TDDDG); consent may be withdrawn at any time.
You can configure your browser so that you are notified when cookies are set and can choose to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, block cookies in specific cases or generally, and enable the automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. If you disable cookies, the functionality of this website may be restricted.
If any further cookies or services are used on this website, you can find details in this privacy policy.
Our website uses Borlabs Cookie’s consent technology to obtain your consent to the storage of certain cookies in your browser or to the use of certain technologies, and to document this in accordance with data protection regulations. This technology is provided by Borlabs GmbH, Hamburger Str. 11, 22083 Hamburg (hereinafter ‘Borlabs’).
When you visit our website, a Borlabs cookie is stored in your browser, which records the consents you have given or any withdrawal of those consents. This data is not passed on to the provider of the Borlabs cookie.
The data collected will be stored until you ask us to delete it, or until you delete the Borlabs cookie yourself, or until the purpose for which the data is stored no longer applies. Mandatory statutory retention periods remain unaffected. Details on how Borlabs handles data processing can be found at https://de.borlabs.io/kb/welche-daten-speichert-borlabs-cookie/.
Borlabs’ cookie consent technology is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR.
The website provider automatically collects and stores information in what are known as server log files, which your browser automatically sends to us. These are:
This data is not combined with data from other sources.
This data is collected on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in ensuring that its website functions correctly and is optimised – to this end, the server log files must be collected.
If you send us enquiries via the contact form, we will store the details you provide in the enquiry form, including the contact details you have provided there, for the purpose of processing your enquiry and in the event of any follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, provided that your enquiry relates to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of enquiries addressed to us (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR) or on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR) where this has been sought; consent may be withdrawn at any time.
The data you enter in the contact form will be retained by us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for which the data is stored no longer applies (e.g. once your enquiry has been dealt with). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
If you contact us by email, telephone or fax, your enquiry, including any personal data it contains (name, enquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of dealing with your request. We will not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, provided that your enquiry relates to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of enquiries addressed to us (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR) or on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR) where this has been sought; consent may be withdrawn at any time.
The data you send to us via contact enquiries will be retained by us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for which the data is stored no longer applies (e.g. once your enquiry has been dealt with). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.
If you would like to subscribe to the newsletter offered on the website, we require your email address and information that enables us to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided and that you consent to receiving the newsletter. We use this data to send you the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties. As part of newsletter campaigns, we may analyse various data (e.g. time of opening, IP address, device information, links clicked and, where applicable, subsequent actions).
The processing of the data entered in the newsletter subscription form takes place solely on the basis of your consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR). You may withdraw your consent to the storage of your data and email address, and to their use for sending the newsletter, at any time, for example via the „Unsubscribe“ link in the newsletter. The lawfulness of any data processing operations that have already taken place remains unaffected by this withdrawal.
The data you have provided to us for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter, and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list once you have unsubscribed or once the purpose for which it was collected no longer applies. We reserve the right to delete or block email addresses from our newsletter distribution list at our own discretion, in accordance with our legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.
Data that we have stored for other purposes remains unaffected by this.
Once you have unsubscribed from the newsletter mailing list, your email address may be stored on a blacklist by us or the newsletter service provider, where necessary to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist is used solely for this purpose and is not combined with any other data. This serves both your interests and our interest in complying with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR). There is no time limit on the retention of data on the blacklist. You may object to the storage of your data, provided that your interests override our legitimate interests.
This website embeds videos from YouTube. The website is operated by Google Ireland Limited („Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
When you visit one of these websites on which YouTube is embedded, a connection is established with YouTube’s servers. In doing so, the YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you allow YouTube to link your browsing behaviour directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
We use YouTube in enhanced privacy mode. According to YouTube, videos played in enhanced privacy mode are not used to personalise the user’s browsing experience on YouTube. Adverts displayed in enhanced privacy mode are also not personalised. No cookies are set in enhanced privacy mode. Instead, however, so-called local storage elements are stored in the user’s browser; these contain personal data in a similar way to cookies and can be used for recognition purposes. You can find details on enhanced privacy mode here: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/171780.
Where applicable, once a YouTube video has been played, further data processing operations may be triggered over which we have no control.
YouTube is used to ensure that our online services are presented in an appealing manner. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Where consent has been sought, processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR and Section 25(1) of the TDDDG, insofar as the consent covers the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.

This page uses the Google Maps service. The provider is Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. This service enables us to embed maps on our website.
In order to use the features of Google Maps, it is necessary to store your IP address. This information is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The provider of this website has no influence over this data transfer. When Google Maps is enabled, Google may use Google Fonts to ensure consistent font display. When you access Google Maps, your browser loads the required web fonts into its cache to display text and fonts correctly.

We use „Google reCAPTCHA“ (hereinafter „reCAPTCHA“) on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
reCAPTCHA is used to verify whether data is being entered on this website (e.g. in a contact form) by a human or by an automated programme. To do this, reCAPTCHA analyses the website visitor’s behaviour based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor accesses the website. For the purposes of this analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various pieces of information (e.g. IP address, the length of time the website visitor spends on the website, or the mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.
reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not notified that an analysis is taking place.
In this context, Google acts solely as a data processor within the meaning of Article 28 of the GDPR and will not use the data collected in this way for its own purposes. The tool is used on the basis of a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) with Google.
The storage and analysis of the data are carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web services from malicious automated surveillance and from spam. Where consent has been sought, processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR and Section 25(1) of the TDDDG, insofar as the consent covers the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.

We offer you the opportunity to apply for a job with us (e.g. by email, post or via the online application form). Below, we provide information on the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected as part of the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing and use of your data will be carried out in accordance with applicable data protection legislation and all other legal provisions, and that your data will be treated in strict confidence.
If you submit an application to us, we will process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication details, application documents, notes taken during interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary to decide whether to enter into an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) under German law (pre-contractual negotiations regarding an employment relationship), Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR (general pre-contractual processing) and – provided you have given your consent – Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. Consent may be withdrawn at any time. Your personal data will be disclosed within our company exclusively to those persons involved in processing your application.
Should your application be successful, the data you have submitted will be stored in our data processing systems in accordance with Section 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and Article 6(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for the purpose of managing the employment relationship.
As part of the recruitment process, we may also carry out an online search for information about you. This primarily involves searches on Google, LinkedIn and Xing. The legal basis for this type of processing is our legitimate interest in forming an overall impression of you based on publicly available information, in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.
If we are unable to make you a job offer, if you decline a job offer or if you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have provided on the basis of our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). The data will then be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. The data is retained in particular for evidential purposes in the event of a legal dispute. If it becomes apparent that the data will be required after the expiry of the 6-month period (e.g. due to an imminent or pending legal dispute), the data will not be deleted until the purpose for its continued retention no longer applies.
Data may also be retained for a longer period if you have given your consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR) or if statutory retention obligations prevent the data from being erased.
If we do not make you a job offer, there may be the option of adding you to our candidate pool. Should you be added to the pool, all documents and details from your application will be transferred to the candidate pool so that we can contact you should suitable vacancies arise.
Inclusion in the candidate pool is based solely on your explicit consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR). Giving your consent is voluntary and has no bearing on the current recruitment process. The data subject may withdraw their consent at any time. In this case, the data will be permanently deleted from the candidate pool, provided there are no legal grounds for retaining it.
Data from the candidate pool will be permanently deleted no later than two years after consent has been given.
