We are very pleased about your interest in our company. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of the Pickenpack Seafoods GmbH.
The use of the Internet pages of the Pickenpack Seafoods GmbH is possible without any indication of personal data. However, if a data subject wants to use special services provided by our company via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we will generally obtain the consent of the data subject.

As the controller, the Pickenpack Seafoods GmbH has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can have security gaps in principle, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.

These cookies enable Google to recognize your web browser. If a user visits certain pages of an ad client's website and the cookie stored on their computer has not expired, Google and the client will be able to tell that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to that page. A different cookie is associated with each ad client. As a result, cookies cannot be tracked through the websites of ad clients.

These oblige the recipient of the data in the U.S. to process the data according to the level of protection in Europe.
