FAQ on data protection at DEUTZ

We, the DEUTZ AG, take the protection of your personal data very seriously and adhere strictly to the rules of the data protection regulations. Personal data is collected on this website only to the extent technically necessary. In principle, however, use of the DEUTZ AG website is also possible without providing any personal data. Only in the cases mentioned in the data protection statement the collected data will be passed to third parties. The FAQ on data protection at DEUTZ is available here.

The following statement gives you an overview of how we ensure this protection and what kind of data is collected for which purpose. You will also be informed about your rights.

1. Definitions

The data protection declaration of the DEUTZ AG is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration should be legible and understandable for the general public, as well as our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to first explain the terminology used:

 a)    Personal data

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“user”). 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.

 b)    Data subject

Data subject (user) is any identified or identifiable natural person, whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.

 c)    Processing

Processing is 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.

 d)    Restriction of processing

Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.

 e)    Controller or controller responsible for the processing

Controller or controller responsible for the processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.

 f)    Processor

Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

 g)    Recipient

Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients; the processing of those data by those public authorities shall be in compliance with the applicable data protection rules according to the purposes of the processing.

 h)    Third party

Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal data.

 i)    Pseudonymisation

Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific user without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

 j)    Profiling

Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person's performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.

 k)    Consent

Consent of the user is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the users wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

4. Cookies

The Internet pages of the DEUTZ AG use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser.
Many Internet sites and servers use cookies and many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a character string through which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited Internet sites and servers to differentiate the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified using the unique cookie ID.
Through the use of cookies, the DEUTZ AG can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting. The website user that uses cookies, e.g. does not have to enter access data each time the website is accessed, because this is taken over by the website, and the cookie is thus stored on the user's computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online shop. The online store remembers the articles that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.
The user may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used, and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all popular Internet browsers. If the user deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be entirely usable.

Cookie consent tool 

Our website uses the cookie consent tool of OneTrust LLC, 1200 Abernathy Rd, Suite 700, Atlanta, Georgia 30328, USA, to obtain your consent to the storage of certain cookies in your browser and to document them in accordance with data protection regulations. When you enter our website, a cookie is stored in your browser in which the consent you have given or the revocation of this consent is stored. The cookie consent tool is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR. The data will not be passed on to OneTrust. The data collected will be stored by us until you ask us to delete it, delete the cookie settings yourself, the purpose for data storage no longer applies or until the cookie deletes itself after one year. Mandatory statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Details on data processing at OneTrust can be found at: https://www.onetrust.com/de/privacy-notice/

5. Social Media 

LinkedIn

LinkedIn
We use the services of LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland ("LinkedIn"). As part of these services, LinkedIn collects and stores usage data in pseudonymous profiles to enable statistical analysis of website usage and the success of advertisements as well as interest-based advertising on our website and on LinkedIn and LinkedIn partner sites. If you are a user of LinkedIn, LinkedIn may also merge the data with your user account. With LinkedIn Marketing Solutions, LinkedIn transmits personal data to us using a form (so-called LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms). Lead Gen Forms are forms already pre-filled with LinkedIn profile data that allow members to submit your data, which is publicly visible on the network, with just a few clicks. The queries generated through the forms are passed directly to a lead management or CRM tool e.g. HubSpot that is hosted in the US. In addition, the data may be processed on LinkedIn servers outside the EU, including in the USA. LinkedIn also uses cookies to collect data. You can enable or disable this and the associated data collection via the settings in your LinkedIn account or the following websites:
https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls
optout.aboutads.info
https://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/
The deactivation is usually stored by means of a cookie. It must therefore be renewed when you delete the cookies. In addition, the deactivation must be performed separately for each browser. Further information on data protection within the scope of LinkedIn services can be found at: www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy

HubSpot
We use HubSpot on our website for marketing activities. HubSpot is a US company with an office in Germany, Am Postbahnhof 17, 10243 Berlin ("HubSpot"). We use HubSpot's integrated software solution for our own marketing, lead generation, qualification and management process. This includes email marketing, which governs the sending of automated, individualized mailings, social media publishing and reporting, contact management such as user segmentation and CRM, landing pages and contact forms. 
Our contact forms allow you, as a visitor to our website, to learn more about our company, download content, and provide us with your contact information. This information, as well as our website content, is stored on HubSpot servers. HubSpot Inc. is contractually obligated with the EU standard contractual clauses to process in a data protection compliant manner. 
We use this information to contact you. Before we process your information for the purposes set out in this section, we will obtain your consent to use HubSpot. You can revoke this consent at any time for the future in accordance with Art. 7 (3) DSGVO. If you have granted us consent to contact you by email via a contact form, each email will contain an unsubscribe link. 
HubSpot uses cookies. HubSpot collects and stores usage data in pseudonymous profiles to enable interest-based advertising. In addition, HubSpot evaluates information collected on our behalf so that we can generate reports about the visit and the pages visited. 
You can deactivate the storage of data by HubSpot in cookies and the associated recording of your user behavior by preventing the storage of cookies accordingly at any time through your browser settings and/or deleting existing cookies. 
You can also activate/deactivate the setting of cookies by HubSpot via the Remove-Cookie-Button: insight.deutz.com. We use HubSpot to optimize advertising and customer targeting. Only if you have given us consent to do so, we can also merge the pseudonymous data with personal information from your CRM profile in order to address you optimally and provide you with interest-based support. 
HubSpot uses sub-processors in the USA, including HubSpot Inc. The consent you have given also refers to data transfers to the USA. The USA does not offer a level of data protection comparable to the European Union. In certain cases, U.S. companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities without you as the data subject being able to take legal action against this. It can therefore not be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. intelligence services) process, evaluate and permanently store your data located on US servers for monitoring purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities. 
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. We process your contact data that you have provided to us via a lead gen form, contact form on our website or a special landing page until you revoke it, unless there is another legal basis for the processing after your revocation. For more information on data processing by HubSpot, please visit HubSpot's website.

Facebook Pixel and Facebook Custom Audiences

Our website contains tracking technology from Facebook, 1601 S. California Avenue, Palo Alto, 94304 CA, United States ("Facebook"). This may include cookies. Facebook collects and stores usage data (e.g., information about which parts of the website you have accessed) in pseudonymous profiles to enable interest-based advertising. For registered Facebook users, Facebook may merge this information with your Facebook account. On the basis of the usage profiles, Facebook can serve interest-based advertising on our behalf on the Facebook network (including so-called "Facebook Ads") as well as on other websites. You can deactivate the data collection and storage based on Facebook's tracking technology at any time via the following websites:
https://www.facebook.com/adpreferences/ad_settings/
https://optout.aboutads.info/choices
https://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/
The deactivation is usually stored by means of a cookie. It must therefore be set again when you delete the cookies. In addition, the deactivation must be made separately for each browser. We use Facebook Pixel and Facebook Custom Audiences for marketing purposes only with your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO). Only if you have given us consent to do so, we transmit a so-called hash value from your email address (i.e. an unrecognizable string of characters) to Facebook in order to enable target group-oriented advertising via Facebook on the basis of a comparison with Facebook users within the framework of Custom Audiences.
For more information on data processing by Facebook, please refer to Facebook's privacy policy (https://www.facebook.com/privacy/explanation).
Specific information on the Facebook Pixel can be found here.

XING
We use the services of Xing Marketing Solutions GmbH, Dammtorstraße 30, 20354 Hamburg, Germany ("Xing"). As part of these services, we place targeted ads on Xing by defining target groups and placing an ad. Through the call-to-action button, we can further personalize Xing Lead Ads according to our preferences. The data collected in this way is made available in a CSV file and can be downloaded via our Agency Log-In. The requests generated via the forms are sent directly to the lead Management or CRM tool, e.g. HubSpot. Xing also uses cookies to collect data. Xing collects and stores usage data in pseudonymous profiles to enable statistical evaluations of website usage and the success of advertisements as well as interest-oriented advertising on our website and on Xing. If you are a user of Xing, Xing may also merge the data with your user account.
together. You can deactivate this and the associated data collection via the following websites: https://nats.xing.com/optout.html.
The deactivation is usually stored by means of a cookie. It must therefore be renewed when you delete the cookies. In addition, the deactivation must be performed separately for each browser.
Further information on data protection within the scope of Xing services can be found at: https://privacy.xing.com/de/datenschutzerklaerung

Instagram

We use the services of Instagram Inc, 1601 Willow Rd, Menlo Park CA 94025, USA. Instagram is a social network for photo and video sharing of the company. In the process, Instagram processes personal data. When you visit our Instagram page, Instagram collects, among other things, your IP address and other information (e.g. cookies). This information is used to provide us with statistical information on the use of the Instagram page. You can find more information about data processing by Instagram at: https://privacycenter.instagram.com/policy/entry_point=ig_help_center_data_policy_redirect

6. Implementation of raffles

We run raffles from time to time. The raffles take place on our social media accounts. If a raffle is held, you consent to the collection and use of your personal data by participating in the raffle. We collect, store and process this personal data for the purpose of conducting and handling the raffles and to notify you in the event of a win. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is Art. 6 para 1 lit. a GDPR. The data will not be passed on to third parties. You can revoke your consent at any time by sending us a message. Your data will then be deleted.

The following personal data will be processed: First name, last name, Instagram name, address, date of birth

For the processing of personal data on the social media accounts, their data protection provisions apply (see No. 5 of our privacy policy).

7. Collection of general data and information

The website of the DEUTZ AG collects a series of general data and information when a user or automated system calls up the website. This general data and information are stored in the server log files. Collected may be

  • the browser types and versions used,
  • the operating system used by the accessing system,
  • the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers),
  • the sub-websites,
  • the date and time of access to the Internet site,
  • an Internet protocol address (IP address),
  • the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and
  • any other similar data and information that may be used in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
  • When using these general data and information, the DEUTZ AG does not draw any conclusions about the user. Rather, this information is needed to
  • deliver the content of our website correctly,
  • optimize the content of our website as well as its advertisement,
  • ensure the long-term viability of our information technology systems and website technology, and
  • provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack.

Therefore, the DEUTZ AG analyzes anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a user.

8. Registration on our website

The user has the possibility to register on the website of the controller with the indication of personal data. Which personal data are transmitted to the controller is determined by the respective input mask used for the registration. The personal data entered by the user are collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the controller, and for his own purposes. The controller may request transfer to one or more processors (e.g. a parcel service) that also uses personal data for an internal purpose which is attributable to the controller.
By registering on the website of the controller, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) and used by the user, the date, and the time of the registration are also stored. The storage of this data takes place against the background that this is the only way to prevent the misuse of our services, and, if necessary, to make it possible to investigate committed offenses. Insofar, the storage of this data is necessary to secure the controller. This data is not passed on to third parties unless there is a statutory obligation to pass on the data, or if the transfer serves the aim of criminal prosecution.
The registration of the user, with the voluntary indication of personal data, is intended to enable the controller to offer the user contents or services that may only be offered to registered users due to the nature of the matter in question. Registered persons are free to change the personal data specified during the registration at any time, or to have them completely deleted from the data stock of the controller.
The data controller shall, at any time, provide information upon request to each user as to what personal data are stored about the user. In addition, the data controller shall correct or erase personal data at the request or indication of the user, insofar as there are no statutory storage obligations. The entirety of the controller’s employees are available to the user in this respect as contact persons.

9. Usage of the DEUTZ Service Portal and DEUTZ Product Configurator

DEUTZ AG provides its customers with the DEUTZ Service Portal, a platform through which DEUTZ spare parts can be ordered from DEUTZ Service Partners. The application called DEUTZ Product Configurator is a proprietary development from DEUTZ and is available for the configuration of products. In order to use the application, access authorization in the form of a user account is required.

Upon registration in the DEUTZ Service Portal and DEUTZ Product Configurator the following data is collected and processed:

  •  Name

In addition, the accessed websites, the date and time of access as well as the users browser type and operating system are recorded. If the user is signed in in with his username at the time of access, the user name and the name of the user are also recorded. DEUTZ AG provides the user data of both systems (name, address data, sales tax identification number) to the responsible DEUTZ Service Partner selected by the user, in order to enable the processing of the request / the order placed by the user. In addition, the selected DEUTZ Service Partner will be provided the users' access data for analysis purposes. Furthermore, DEUTZ AG uses the user data for its own marketing purposes, such as analysis of the buying behavior, as well as for the optimization of our website and our product offer.

10. Registration of engines on the DEUTZ Service Portal and the DEUTZ Engine Registration

When registering DEUTZ engines in the DEUTZ Service Portal and the DEUTZ engine registration, the following data is collected and processed:

  •  Name
  •  Company name

  •  VAT registration number
  •  DEUTZ engine number
  •  Manufacturer, type and serial number of the device in which the DEUTZ engine is installed
  •  Start-up Date
  •  Hours

DEUTZ AG uses this data for its own marketing purposes, such as analysis of the existing DEUTZ engines in the field, as well as for the optimization of our website and our product range. DEUTZ AG also makes data available to the DEUTZ service partners, with the aim of enabling them to optimize their own service offer.

11. Using of Apps

Corresponding to the applicable third-party terms and conditions (who becomes your contract partner for the acquisition of the app) from which you download apps developed by DEUTZ (such as iTunes, Google Play, etc.), we process the data provided to us by the third party in order to fulfill our obligations (eg your Device ID) so that you can download the app to your mobile device.
In particular, please pay attention to the separate privacy notices for the app developed by DEUTZ and the privacy notices of the third-party providers.

12. Subscription to our press releases/investor relations news

On the website of the DEUTZ AG, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our enterprise's press releases and our Investor Relations News. The input mask used for this purpose determines what personal data are transmitted to the controller.


The press releases of our company and the Investor Relations News can only be received by the data subject if (1) the data subject has a valid e-mail address and (2) the data subject registers for the respective mailing. For legal reasons, a confirmation e-mail will be sent to the e-mail address entered by a data subject for the first time for dispatch using the double opt-in procedure and then archived. To send the press releases and news, the EQS contact manager of EQS Group AG, Karlstraße 47, 80333 Munich, Germany, is used.

Data processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time with effect for the future by unsubscribing from the press release/investor relations news.

The data you provide us with for the purpose of receiving information will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the respective distribution list and will be deleted from our servers as well as from the servers of the EQS contact manager after you unsubscribe.

We have concluded a data protection agreement with EQS and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using the EQS contact manager. You can find more details in the EQS data protection provisions at: https://www.eqs.com/about-eqs/data-protection/.

13. Press release/investor relations news-Tracking

The press releases/investor relations news of the DEUTZ AG contains so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic embedded in such e-mails, which are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and analysis. This allows a statistical analysis of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, the DEUTZ AG may see if and when an e-mail was opened by a user, and which links in the e-mail were called up by the user.
Such personal data collected in the tracking pixels contained in the press releases/investor relations news are stored and analyzed by the controller or Retarus in order to optimize the shipping of the press releases, as well as to adapt the content of future press releases/investor relations news even better to the interests of the user. These personal data will not be passed on to other third parties. Users are at any time entitled to revoke the respective separate declaration of consent issued by means of the double-opt-in procedure. After a revocation, these personal data will be deleted by the controller. The DEUTZ AG automatically regards a withdrawal from the receipt of the press release as a revocation.

14. Contact possibility via the website

The website of the DEUTZ AG contains information that enables a quick electronic contact to our enterprise, as well as direct communication with us. If a user contacts the controller by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the user are automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a user to the data controller are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the user. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties.

15. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data

The data controller shall process and store the personal data of the user only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted by the European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject to.
If the storage purpose is not applicable, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another competent legislator expires, the personal data are routinely blocked or erased in accordance with legal requirements.

16. Data protection for applications and the application procedures

The data controller shall collect and process the personal data of applicants for the purpose of the processing of the application procedure. The processing may also be carried out electronically. This is the case, in particular, if an applicant submits corresponding application documents by e-mail or by means of a web form on the website (or the candidate portal) to the controller. As part of the application process, the interviews required to establish an employment relationship may also take place virtually. For this purpose, the controller regularly uses the Microsoft application TEAMS. Information on data processing when using Microsoft Teams can be found here: https://docs.microsoft.com/de-de/microsoftteams/teams-privacy. If the data controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the submitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with legal requirements. If no employment contract is concluded with the applicant by the controller, the application documents shall be automatically erased three months after notification of the refusal decision, unless there is separate consent on the part of the applicant for longer-term storage of the data, or provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller are opposed to the erasure.

17. Emergency contact

Our employees have the opportunity to enter an emergency contact in order to inform a person from their private environment, for example, in the event of an accident or a health threat. If you have been specified as an emergency contact by employees of our company, this is based on its "legitimate interests" (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). In this context, the following data may be processed: Name, first name, relationship, telephone, e-mail, address.

18. Conferences

For conferences, we use online tools (usually Microsoft Teams). In the process, your personal data is transmitted to the provider of the online tool, who then collects and processes it. All data required for the use of the tool is collected. Technical data (e.g. IP addresses, MAC addresses, device IDs, device type, operating system type and version, client version, camera type, microphone or loudspeaker, and the type of connection) is also processed to handle online communication. Insofar as content (e.g. chats, videos, photos, files, voicemails, etc.) is provided within the online tools, this is also processed by the provider.

For more information on data processing by the online tools, please refer to the privacy statements (Microsoft Teams – Datenschutz - Microsoft Teams | Microsoft Docs) of the tools.

19. Rights of the user

 a) Right of confirmation

The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by the user for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
The user has objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the user.
If one of the aforementioned conditions is met, and a user wishes to request the restriction of the processing of personal data stored by the DEUTZ AG, he or she may at any time contact any employee of the controller. The employee of the DEUTZ AG will arrange the restriction of the processing.

If the DEUTZ AG processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the user shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning him or her for such marketing. This applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If the user objects to the DEUTZ AG to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the DEUTZ AG will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.
In addition, the user has the right, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to object to processing of personal data concerning him or her by the DEUTZ AG for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.
In order to exercise the right to object, the user may contact any employee of the DEUTZ AG. In addition, the user is free in the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to use his or her right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

21. Data protection provisions on the application and use of etracker

The data controller has integrated the web analysis service etracker offered by etracker GmbH, Erste Brunnenstraße 1, 20459 Hamburg, Germany, into this website. Web analysis is the collection, collation and evaluation of data about the behaviour of visitors to websites. Among other things, a web analysis service collects data about the website from which a data subject came to a website (so-called referrer), which subpages of the website were accessed or how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. Web analysis is mainly used to optimize a website and for the cost-benefit analysis of internet advertising.

Data processing is carried out based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, which consists in the continuous optimisation of our online offering. The data is only stored for as long as it is necessary to fulfil the purpose and then deleted. The data is not passed on to third parties.

22. Data protection provisions about the application and use of YouTube

On this website, the controller has integrated components of YouTube.
The operating company of YouTube is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, UNITED STATES. The YouTube, LLC is a subsidiary of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, UNITED STATES.

With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet site, which is operated by the controller and on which a YouTube component (YouTube video) was integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the user is automatically prompted to download a display of the corresponding YouTube component. Further information about YouTube may be obtained under www.youtube.com/yt/about/en/. During the course of this technical procedure, YouTube and Google gain knowledge of what specific sub-page of our website was visited by the user.


If the user is logged in on YouTube, YouTube recognizes with each call-up to a sub-page that contains a YouTube video, which specific sub-page of our Internet site was visited by the user. This information is collected by YouTube and Google and assigned to the respective YouTube account of the user.
YouTube and Google will receive information through the YouTube component that the user has visited our website, if the user at the time of the call to our website is logged in on YouTube; this occurs regardless of whether the person clicks on a YouTube video or not. If such a transmission of this information to YouTube and Google is not desirable for the user, the delivery may be prevented if the user logs off from their own YouTube account before a call-up to our website is made.
 

YouTube's data protection provisions, available at www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/, provide information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by YouTube and Google.

23. Data protection provisions on the application and use of Vimeo

We use the provider Vimeo to incorporate videos. Vimeo is operated by Vimeo, LLC and has its principal place of business at 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011. We use plug-ins of the provider Vimeo on some of our internet pages. When you visit our internet website equipped with such a plug-in, a link is established with the Vimeo servers and in that respect the plug-in. As a result, data about the internet pages you have visited are then transmitted to the Vimeo server. If you are logged-in as a Vimeo member in that respect, Vimeo allocates this information to your personal user account. When using the plug-in, e.g. clicking on the start button of a video, this information is similarly allocated to your user account. You can prevent such allocation by logging-out of your Vimeo user account before using our internet site and deleting the corresponding Vimeo Cookies.

24. Data protection provisions on the application and use of Google Maps

This website uses the Google Maps API to visually illustrate geographical information. Google Maps and resources of maps are only loaded following explicit approval by the user. When using Google Maps, Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, also records, processes and uses data on the use of the card functions by users. For more information about data processing by Google, please see the Google data protection notices. You can also change your personal data protection settings there in the data protection centre. Alternatively, you have the option of deactivating the Google Maps service and therefore preventing the transfer of data to Google by deactivating JavaScript in your browser. However, we draw attention to the fact that in such a case you will not be able to use the card function on our site. General information about data protection can be viewed in the Google Privacy Center at: http://www.google.com/intl/en-EN/privacy/.
The legal basis for the incorporation of the service of Google Maps on our website, and therefore the associated processing of your data, is Article 6 (1), letter f, GDPR.

25. Data protection provisions on the application and use of EQS

26. Privacy Policy for the use of server log

The website provider collects data about accesses to the site and saves these as "server log files". The following data is logged:

  •  IP address / remote host name
  •  remote logname
  • Time
  •  Request (first line)
  •  Status Code
  •  response size
  •  User-Agent

The data collected are for statistical purposes only and to improve the website. However, the website operator reserves the right to retrospectively check the server logfiles if concrete evidence to unlawful use exist.

27. Legal basis for the processing

Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the user is party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service, the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries concerning our products or services. Is our company subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the user or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR. Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the user which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the user is a client of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

28. The legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favor of the well-being of all our employees and the shareholders.

29. Period for which the personal data will be stored

The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

The data protection settings that are adjusted by the user in the Cookiebox are stored at most for 31 days. After the 31 days, settings in the Cookiebox need to be adjusted by the user again. It remains the case that Technical Cookies cannot be deactivated.

30. Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement; Requirement necessary to enter into a contract; Obligation of the user to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data

We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the user provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The user is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the user could not be concluded. Before personal data is provided by the user, the user must contact any employee. The employee clarifies to the user whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and the consequences of non-provision of the personal data.

31. Existence of automated decision-making

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.

32. Further Information

Your trust is important to us. Therefore, we would like to answer your questions regarding the processing of your data at any time. If you have any questions that this privacy statement could not answer or if you wish to receive more detailed information, please contact the data protection officer of DEUTZ AG.
