Privacy policy for the internet service of SBK

We hope to provide you with comprehensive information about the products and services of SBK through our website and our newsletters.

The protection of your personal data is very important to us. The following privacy policy provides you with an overview of when we store data and the purposes for which they are collected and processed.

As a public body, we are subject to the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), the German Telemedia Act (TMG) and the special provisions concerning the protection of social security data of the books of the German Social Code (SGB), especially Books I, V, X, XI and XII. Our adherence to the statutory provisions is verified on a regular basis.

Your consent to the processing of data

Your data from your visit to the website will not be collected, processed or used automatically without your express consent. Your IP address is stored in server log files for 30 days. However, we cannot access them and as such, they cannot be associated with an individual. We will store your personal data if you expressly provide us with them. This might be in one of the following cases:

  • you register for the personal portal ‘Meine SBK’;
  • you order brochures;
  • you subscribe to our newsletter;
  • you participate in competitions or
  • you contact us using the contact form.
  • Each input screen on the website describes which data are collected, stored and used. Fields marked as optional are voluntary. 

    Use and disclosure of your data

    If you provide us with your data, we will only use them for the original purpose, e.g. in order to respond to queries or send the newsletter. Your data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent. Data are only passed on to third parties in line with mandatory statutory regulations or if the disclosure is necessary for the purposes of litigation or prosecution in the event of an attack on our network infrastructure.

    We have our external service providers sign a contractual undertaking to adhere to the provisions concerning the protection of social security data. To this end, we enter into a legally required data processing contract in the sense of Article 28 GDPR in conjunction with Section 80 of Book X of the German Social Code (SGB). As the client, we inspect the protection of your personal data prior to the start of the data processing, and then regularly monitor compliance with the technical and organisational measures implemented by the contractor.

    Whenever you provide personal data, your data will be encrypted before they are transmitted over the Internet in order that they cannot be accessed by unauthorised parties.

    Persons under the age of 15 should not provide us with any personal data without the permission of their parents or guardians.

    Facebook competitions

    For the purposes of communicating, implementing and processing the competition, personal data of the participants is processed by SBK (and especially stored). Once the winner has been determined and the prize issued, the data of all users involved in the competition is deleted. SBK will not transmit data to unauthorised third parties.

    To set up, implement and process the competition, SBK processes the email address and name (first and surname) of the participant.

    Objections to the use of data can be submitted to the following email address: social@sbk.org. If a user objects to the use of their data before the competition is complete (before the respective prize has been issued), that user can no longer take part in the competition. Any prize this user would have won in this case will be issued to a new winner (determined by drawing a winner from the group of respondents with the correct answers).

    This promotion and the resulting prize is not affiliated with Facebook and is not sponsored, supported or organised by Facebook in any manner. The recipient of the information provided by the user is not Facebook, but rather Siemens-Betriebskrankenkasse (SBK). The information provided is used only for the promotion and is protected and treated as confidential as a matter of course. The provision of personal data is voluntary, but is required in order to participate in the promotion.

    Privacy policy for 'Meine SBK'

    The following privacy policy supplements the general privacy policy for the website www.sbk.org for the protected area ‘Meine SBK’ which can be used by SBK policyholders after they register for it separately. Unless provided for otherwise in this privacy policy, the general privacy policy applies.

    SBK, as the controller in the sense of the data protection legislation, provides various online services through ‘Meine SBK’. SBK collects and processes certain personal data, described below, in order to provide the services in ‘Meine SBK’ and improve it. SBK uses these data in order to provide the services and features available through ‘Meine SBK’.

    Registration

    To use Meine SBK a separate registration for the SBK Account, which allows the use of Meine SBK, is necessary. This requires the insurant’s number, SBK healthcare card identification number, postal code and an email address. Unrestricted access can only be activated by linking a mobile device (iOS, Android) of your choice, assigning an app code and providing secure proof of your identity. This allows you to use the full range of functions of Meine SBK.

    Data collected and processed in the context of this registration can be found in the Consent for identification and authentication as part of setting up and using the SBK Account.

    As part of a registration for ‘Meine SBK’, the following personal data will be stored in your personal area and can be accessed, supplemented and sometimes even modified by you:

  • Name and surname
  • SBK policyholder number
  • Address
  • Date of birth
  • Phone number(s)
  • Fax number (s)
  • Email address
  • Pension insurance number
  • Any jointly insured family members
  • Use of personal data

    SBK collects other data as part of specific online services (e.g. uploading photos for the electronic SBK healthcare card, retrieval status of online mail documents in order to arrange for a possible subsequent dispatch by mail) within ‘Meine SBK’. These data are collected and processed in line with the statutory remit of SBK which is supported by a service provider that is obliged to maintain the secrecy of personal data.

    Prevention of misuse and guaranteed traceability

    In order to prevent the misuse of your personal access to SBK and ensure the necessary traceability, which is also in your interests, the following procedures are logged:

  • All log-ins
  • Current SBK Account status
  • Each transaction initiated
  • The user ID, date, time, identification type and a transaction code are all logged.

    Use of cookies, analytics tools and external services

    The use of cookies, analytics tools and external services is detailed in the general privacy policy for the SBK website. 

    Deletion of your account

    If you no longer wish to use Meine SBK, you can request the deletion of the SBK Account at any time. All data associated with the registration of the SBK Account will then be deleted, unless there are statutory rights or obligations of retention in individual cases. In this case, the personal data collected specifically for Meine SBK will also be deleted unless any statutory rights or duties of retention would prevent this on a case-by-case basis.

    Privacy policy for the SBK video consultation

    In an SBK video consultation you receive competent and personal advice.

    The protection of your personal data is very important to us. The following privacy policy provides you with an overview of when we store data and the purposes for which it is collected and processed.

    As a public body, we are subject to the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the special provisions concerning the protection of social security data of the books of the German Social Code (SGB), especially Books I, V, X, XI and XII.

    Whenever you provide personal data, your data will be encrypted before it is transmitted over the internet so that it cannot be accessed by unauthorised parties.

    2. Important information

    Social security data in emails?

    Generally speaking, unencrypted emails are like a postcard. We therefore recommend that you do not send any sensitive data by email.

    As a rule, we do not respond to queries involving sensitive data by email, rather by post or through your online inbox in ‘Meine SBK’. We can provide the information you require in this protected area. Do you no longer have an account with ‘Meine SBK’? No problem. Click here to register for the secure service.

    We recommend that you use your private account for email correspondence with SBK.

    Warning regarding fraudulent calls

    Recently, there have been numerous cases involving people posing as employees of a health insurer or claiming to be acting on behalf of a health insurer calling policyholders.

    In the calls, the fraudsters ask for the account details of the policyholder under false pretences, for example a payment from a bonus scheme.

    In other cases, fraudsters have asked for the policyholder’s address details, allegedly in order to send them information about supplementary insurance policies, and then signed them up to a supplementary insurance policy and demanded payment.

    We cannot conceive of the schemes the fraudsters will think up next.

    Please note: Neither SBK nor your personal SBK consultant will ever phone you and ask for your data.

    What can you do if you receive such a call?

  • The only correct response is not to provide any data and hang up immediately.
  • If you have already provided account details before you hang up, we can only advise that you monitor your account activity and object to any charges that you cannot remember making.
  • If you provided address details and receive what appears to be a concluded policy with a demand for payment, we recommend that you do not pay initially and seek legal advice immediately, e.g. from a consumer protection agency or a lawyer.
  • If the calls become more frequent or more relentless, you can attempt to have the phone number blocked and consult a consumer protection agency.

    What are personal data?

    Data are personal or relate to a person if they can be associated with a specific natural person unequivocally. They include, for example, information such as your name, date of birth, address, personal email address, health insurance number and phone number.

    European lawmakers have defined it in a slightly more complex manner (Article 4 no. 1 GDPR):

    ‘For the purposes of this Regulation, “personal data” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.’

    What are social security data?

    Social security data are personal data that are processed a statutory health insurance fund (such as SBK), for example, in connection with their duties under the German Social Code (SGB). Therefore, the data listed above are also social security data.

    Trade and company secrets are equivalent to social security data. They include all data relating to a business or business operations, including of legal entities, that are of a confidential nature.

    Legislators have provided the following definition in the German Social Code (Section 67(2) SGB X):

    ‘Social security data are personal data (Article 4(1) GDPR) that are processed by an entity referred to in Section 35 of Book I in connection with its duties under this Code. Trade and company secrets are all business-related data, including those concerning natural persons, which are of a confidential nature.’

    What does data processing mean?

    When we process personal data and social security data, this means that we collect, store, use, transmit or erase them, for example.

    This is defined as follows by the European General Data Protection Regulation (Article 4 no. 4 GDPR):

    For the purposes of this Regulation, ‘processing’ means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction. 

    Back to overview

    What legal grounds are there for data processing and for what purpose do we process your data?

    We process personal data and social security data in accordance with the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the German Social Code (SGB).

    The specific purpose of the processing is determined by the following breakdown of the legal grounds.

    If we process data having been granted consent, we will describe the purpose before asking for any consent from you.

    Change of purpose

    In deviation from the purposes and legal grounds described above, we can use your data for other purposes without being obliged to notify you in advance (i.e. a change of purpose) if the following criteria are met:

  • The measure is in accordance with Section 82(2) SGB X.
  • Other legal grounds permit the change of purpose and do not establish an obligation to notify you.
  • We have your express consent.
  • The data are pseudonymised.
