Which data will be collected and used, if you are visiting the ePac website?
You can visit the ePac website without providing any information about yourself. At each of your visits we automatically collect information about the IP address that is allocated to your computer, which browser and which operating system you use and which website you have visited. IP addresses are used to transmit data from the addresser to the addressee. Similar to the postal address on an envelope, data is provided with an IP address that identifies the addressee explicitly. This data is stored in so-called log files on our web server. For protection against misuse of our computer systems it is necessary, that the IP address of each visitor will be saved for a period of 3 months. After expiration of this period, the data will be deleted. In addition, we may use the log files to optimize and improve our website's design. Any such data so used will be de-personalized in advance to protect personal anonymity. In order to make your visit to our website easy and user-friendly and to allow us to offer you access to specific functions, we use cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files that are filed on your computer. Most of the cookies used by ePac will be deleted from the hard disk after the end of the browser session (session cookies). Other cookies stay on your computer to recognize your computer the next time you visit our website. Thus, making our internet service more user-friendly. You can also adjust your browser in such a way that you will be informed about the setting of cookies, so you can either decide on a case-by-case basis to accept or reject a specific cookie, or reject the acceptance of all cookies. In the latter case the usability of the ePac websites can be severely limited. However, it is also possible to configure your browser so that cookies are deleted automatically at the end of the browser session.

If you register for the ePac newsletter, we will only use the data given to send our newsletter to you, and only then with your explicit consent. Your e-mail address is a compulsorily requirement, all other information is voluntary. A logout is possible at any time.
Circulation, sale or transmission of personal data to a third party
There will be no circulation, sale or any other kind of transmission of your personal data to a third party.
How are your data protected against misuse?
ePac deploys current technical and security management measures to secure it's websites and other systems against loss, destruction, access, alteration or distribution of your data by unauthorized persons. In certain cases your personal data will be transmitted in encrypted form through the so-called "Secure Socket Layer" technology (SSL). That implies that your computer and the servers of ePac communicate through an approved ciphering method, which is considered to be save in its most current version (currently SSL version 3, 128 bit). If your browser supports SSL, the transmission of personal data is protected through this function. In this case most of the browser show you via a short dialogue field or an icon, whether the safety record is supported. You will find further information under the help function of your browser. Should you wish to get in contact with ePac via e-mail, we would like to point out, that the confidentiality of the transmitted data is not guaranteed when using an unencrypted e-mail. Similar to postcards, the content of emails can be viewed by third parties. We therefore recommend to you the usage of cryptographic techniques or to send confidential information to ePac by post.
