We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) with the above-mentioned provider. This is a contract required by data protection laws and guarantees that they will only process the personal data of our website visitors based on our instructions and in accordance with the GDPR.
The operators of this website and its pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. Therefore, we treat your personal data as confidential information and in accordance with the legal data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
Whenever you use this website, various personal information is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and for what purposes we use this data. It also explains how and for what purpose the information is collected.
We would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. communication by e-mail) can have security gaps. It is not possible to completely protect data from access by third parties.
The person responsible for data processing on this website is:
Langguth GmbH
Große Ziegelohstr. 2
D-06636 Laucha an der Unstrut
Phone: +49 34462 6962 130
E-mail: info@network-marketing-mlm.com
The 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, e-mail addresses, etc.).
Unless a more specific retention period is specified in this Privacy Policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for which it was collected no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the data will be deleted after these reasons no longer apply.
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2)(a) GDPR if special categories of data pursuant to Art. 9 (1) DSGVO. In case of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, the data processing is also based on Art. 49 (1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to the access to information in your terminal device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), the data processing is additionally based on Section 25 (1) TTDSG. The consent can be revoked 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 Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. In addition, if your data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation, we process it on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. In addition, data processing may be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Information about the respective legal basis in each individual case can be found in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.
Among others, we use tools from companies based in the United States or other non-EU countries that are insecure from a data protection perspective. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these non-EU countries. We must point out that in these countries a level of data protection comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed. For example, U.S. companies are required to share personal data with security authorities, and you as a data subject have no recourse in court. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that U.S. authorities (e.g., the Secret Service) may process, analyze and permanently archive your personal data for surveillance purposes. We have no control over these processing activities.
A large number of data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can also revoke any consent you have already given at any time. The legality of the data collection that took place before your revocation remains unaffected.
IN THE EVENT THAT DATA ARE PROCESSED ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. YOU CAN READ THE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH THE PROCESSING OF THE DATA IS BASED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING YOUR DATA THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR IF THE PURPOSE OF THE PROCESSING IS TO ASSERT, EXERCISE OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ARE 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 PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING, INSOFAR AS IT IS CONNECTED WITH SUCH DIRECT ADVERTISING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).
In the event of a breach of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State where they usually reside, work or where the alleged breach took place. The right to file a complaint applies regardless of any other administrative or judicial proceedings available as a remedy.
You have the right to request that we hand over to you or a third party all data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or for the performance of a contract in a common, machine-readable format. Should you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if it is technically feasible.
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to request information about your archived personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the processing of your data at any time. You may also have the right to have your data corrected or deleted. If you have any questions about this topic or any other questions about personal information, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time.
You have the right to request restrictions on the processing of your personal data. To do this, you can contact us at any time. The right to request restriction of processing applies in the following cases:
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data – with the exception of its archiving – may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of other natural or legal persons or for important reasons of public interest cited by the European Union or a member state of the EU.
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the operator of the website, this website uses either an SSL or a TLS encryption program. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and that the lock symbol appears in the browser bar.
When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
If you are required to provide us with your payment information (e.g., your account number if you give us permission to debit your bank account) after you enter into a fee-based contract with us, this information is necessary to process payments.
Payment transactions with common means of payment (Visa/MasterCard, debit from your bank account) are processed exclusively via encrypted SSL or TLS connections. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and that the lock symbol appears in the browser bar.
When communications with us are encrypted, third parties cannot read the payment information you provide.
The use of contact data published within the scope of the imprint obligation for the transmission of not expressly requested advertising and information materials is hereby contradicted. The operators of this website and its pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, for example through SPAM messages.
Our websites and pages use what the industry refers to as “cookies.” Cookies are small text files that do not cause any harm to your device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or they are archived permanently on your device (permanent cookies).

Persistent cookies remain archived on your device until you actively delete them or they are automatically deleted by your web browser.
In some cases, it is possible that third-party cookies are stored on your device as soon as you enter our website (third-party cookies). These cookies enable you or us to use certain services offered by the third party (e.g. cookies for processing payment services).
Cookies have a variety of functions. Many cookies are technically essential, as certain functions of the website would not work without them (e.g. the shopping cart function or the display of videos). The purpose of other cookies may be to analyze user patterns or display advertising messages.
Cookies that are necessary for the performance of electronic communication transactions or for the provision of certain functions that you wish to use (e.g. for the shopping cart function), or those that are necessary for the optimization (required cookies) of the website (e.g. cookies that provide measurable insights about the web audience) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is indicated. The operator of the website has a legitimate interest in storing the necessary cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimized provision of the operator’s services. If your consent has been obtained to store the cookies and similar recognition technologies, the processing will be carried out exclusively on the basis of the consent obtained (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG); this consent can be revoked at any time.
You have the option to set your browser to notify you each time cookies are set and to allow the acceptance of cookies only in certain cases. You can also exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or generally or activate the delete function for the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If you disable cookies, the functions of this website may be limited.
If third-party cookies or cookies for analytics purposes are used, we will separately notify you in connection with this Privacy Policy and may ask for your consent.
Our website uses Cookie Notice & Compliance for GDPR consent technology to obtain your consent for the archiving of certain cookies on your device or for the use of certain technologies and for the privacy-compliant documentation of the former.
Cookie Notice & Compliance for GDPR is installed locally on our servers, so it does not connect to third-party servers. Cookie Notice & Compliance for GDPR stores a cookie in your browser to associate you with the consent given and its revocation. The cookie remains active for 1 month. Your data will be stored until you request us to delete it, delete the consent cookie yourself or until the purpose of data archiving is no longer given. The legally prescribed retention periods remain unaffected.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or if it is necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of requests addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) if this has been requested; consent can be revoked at any time.
The information you have entered into the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete the information, revoke your consent to archive information, or when the purpose for which the information is archived no longer exists (e.g., after we have completed our response to your inquiry).

We offer visitors to our website the opportunity to apply for a job with us (e.g. by e-mail, by mail or via the online application form). In the following, we inform you about the scope, purpose and use of the personal data collected from you 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 the applicable data protection laws and all other legal provisions and that your data will always be treated in strict confidence.
If you apply for a job with us, we process the associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes from interviews, etc.) if these are required for the decision on the establishment of an employment relationship. The legal bases for this are Section 26 BDSG under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (general contract negotiations) and – if you have given us your consent – Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke any consent you have given at any time. Within our company, your personal data will only be shared with persons involved in processing your application.
Should your application lead to employment, the data you provide will be stored in our data processing system on the basis of Section 26 BDSG and Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship.
If we are unable to make you a job offer, or if you decline a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to process the data you have submitted on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) for up to 6 months after completion of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). After that, the data is deleted and the physical application documents are destroyed. The storage serves primarily as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is obvious that the data will be needed after the 6-month period has expired (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), the data will only be deleted when the purpose for further storage no longer applies.
Longer storage may also take place if you have given your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) or if legal retention obligations prevent deletion.
If we do not make you a job offer, you may be added to our applicant pool. If admitted, all documents and information from the application will be forwarded to the applicant pool to contact you in case of suitable vacancies.
Inclusion in the applicant pool takes place exclusively on the basis of your express consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). The submission agreement is voluntary and is not related to the current application process. The data subject may revoke his/her consent at any time. In this case, the data will be irrevocably deleted from the applicant pool, unless there are legal reasons for storing it.
The data from the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent has been granted.
