Privacy Policy

Privacy policy pursuant to the GDPR

Last updated: November 2026

This privacy policy explains which personal data is processed when you visit unique-retail.com, for what purpose and on which legal basis. It is a translation provided for convenience; in case of doubt, the German version prevails.

1. Controller

UNIQUE RETAIL RE Advisory GmbH
Hohe Bleichen 8, 20354 Hamburg, Germany
Represented by the Managing Director Philipp Junikiewicz
Phone: +49 40 238 301 390
E-mail: info@unique-retail.com

2. Overview

You can use this website without providing personal information. We process personal data only in the following cases:

  • when the website is accessed (technical access data),
  • when you contact us by e-mail or phone,
  • to store your cookie choice and the selected language,
  • with your consent, for audience measurement with Google Analytics and for displaying Google Maps.

This website has no contact form, no newsletter and no embedded social media content.

3. Hosting and access data

The website is hosted by united-domains GmbH, Gautinger Straße 10, 82319 Starnberg, Germany. Each time a page is accessed, the server processes technically necessary data: IP address, date and time, the page or file requested, the volume of data transferred, status code, referring page, and browser and operating system.

This processing is necessary to deliver the website and to ensure its stability and security. The legal basis is our legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Log data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for these purposes. The hosting provider processes the data on our behalf (Art. 28 GDPR).

To protect the website’s administration area, failed login attempts are logged together with the IP address (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

The website’s font is loaded from our own server; no connection to third-party servers is established.

4. Contacting us

If you contact us by e-mail or phone, we process the information you provide (name, contact details, content of your enquiry) in order to handle your request. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where the enquiry relates to a contract or pre-contractual matters, and otherwise our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The data is deleted once the enquiry has been dealt with, unless statutory retention obligations apply.

5. Cookies and consent

We set technically necessary cookies on the basis of § 25(2) no. 2 of the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG). All other cookies and similar technologies are only used with your consent (§ 25(1) TDDDG, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).

  • Consent management: We use the Complianz tool for the cookie banner. Your choice is stored in cookies in your browser (for up to twelve months); it is not transmitted to the provider of the tool.
  • Language selection: The cookie “pll_language” remembers the selected language (for one year).

You can withdraw or change your consent at any time with effect for the future – via the cookie consent button at the edge of the page or via the cookie policy (in German).

6. Google Analytics

With your consent, we use Google Analytics 4, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, to analyse the use of the website statistically. The data processed includes an online identifier (cookie ID), device and browser information, pages viewed and time spent on the site; Google Analytics 4 does not store the IP address. The service is not loaded without your consent.

The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, § 25(1) TDDDG). Data may be transferred to Google LLC in the USA; Google is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. Data in Google Analytics is deleted after 14 months at the latest.

7. Google Maps

On the contact page we embed a map from Google Maps (Google Ireland Limited, address as above). The map is only loaded once you have given your consent. Google then receives your IP address and information about your use of the map; a transfer to the USA is possible. The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, § 25(1) TDDDG).

8. Links to other websites

The website contains links to external services such as LinkedIn or UNIQUE ADRS. These are simple links: data is only transmitted when you click on the link. The privacy notices of the respective service apply to any processing there.

9. Recipients

Your data is only received by service providers that we use to operate the website and for our communication (hosting, e-mail) and – after your consent – by Google. Data is not passed on for any other purpose.

10. Your rights

You have the right of access (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16 GDPR), erasure (Art. 17 GDPR), restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR), data portability (Art. 20 GDPR) and the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 21 GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future (Art. 7(3) GDPR). A message to info@unique-retail.com is sufficient.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR). The authority responsible for us is: Der Hamburgische Beauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit (Hamburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information), Ludwig-Erhard-Straße 22, 20459 Hamburg, Germany.

11. Further information

You are under no obligation to provide us with personal data. No automated decision-making, including profiling, takes place. We will update this policy if the website or the legal situation changes.
