Information on the processing of data
General information
The work in the Partnership is supported by the Partnership Secretariat. On behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the Partnership Secretariat is hosted by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH.
The GIZ is a public-benefit federal enterprise for international cooperation. We work as a federal enterprise under private law. Our aim is to achieve the development-policy objective of improving the living conditions of people worldwide and conserving the natural resources on which livelihoods depend.
Information on the collection of personal data
GIZ processes personal data exclusively in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz, BDSG). Personal data are, for example, name, address, email addresses and user behaviour.
GIZ only processes personal data to the extent necessary. Which data is required and processed for which purpose and on what basis is largely determined by the type of service you use or the purpose for which the data is required.
Collection of personal data when visiting our website
When visiting our website, the browser used automatically transmits data that is saved in a log file. GIZ itself processes only the data that is technically required in order to display the website correctly and to ensure its stability and security.
Each time the website is accessed, the data stored includes, but is not limited to, the page that is viewed, the IP address of the accessing device, the page from which the user was redirected, as well as the date and time of access.
Website Analytics
Website Analytics
The Partnership for Sustainable Textiles uses Matomo (https://matomo.org/) to analyse usage data. Every time a user accesses the website and every time a file is called up, data on this process is temporarily stored and processed in a log file. Prior to storage, each data record is made anonymous by changing the IP address.
When individual pages arevisited, so-called temporary cookies are used to facilitate navigation. Cookies are small text files that are stored locally in the cache of the visitor's Internet browser. These session cookies do not contain any personal data and expire at the end of the session. This is done on the legal basis: Art. 6 (1) e GDPR.
Techniques such as Java applets or Active-X controls, which make it possible to understand the access behavior of users, are not used.
We only collect your usage data if you consent to the use of cookies by accepting them via the cookie banner that is displayed when you access our website. Our processing is therefore based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.
Users who do not agree with the completely anonymous storage and evaluation of the data from their visit can opt out of the storage and use of the data at any time via the link below.
Notes on the opposition
For this purpose, a cookie is stored on the end device, which prevents the collection of user data when visiting this offer. The cookie must be stored on every terminal device used to ensure that the objection is effective. Since the cookie is stored in the respective browser (Internet program), the cookie must be stored in each browser if several browsers are used on one terminal (e.g. Internet Explorer, Chrome, Mozilla Firefox). It should also be noted that if all cookies are deleted, the objection cookie is also deleted and must then be stored again.
