transient cookies (see b) 
persistent cookies (see c). 

b) Transient cookies are deleted automatically when you close the browser. This includes session cookies in particular. They store a so-called session ID, which allows different requests from your browser to be assigned to the common session. This means your computer can be recognised if you return to our website. The session cookies are deleted when you log out or close the browser.

§ 4 Other functions and services of our website 

(1) In addition to pure informational use of our website, we also offer various services that you may use if they interest you. This will usually require you to provide additional personal data, which we use to provide the respective service and which is subject to the aforementioned principles of data processing. 

(2) We sometimes use external service providers to process your data. These external providers are carefully selected, are required to comply with our guidelines and are regularly monitored. 

(3) We may also pass your personal data to third parties if we are offering promotions, competitions, contracts or similar services in conjunction with partners. You will receive more information when you enter your personal data, or you can find it at the bottom in the description of the service. 

(4) If our service providers or partners are registered in a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we will explain the consequences of this situation in the description of the service. 

§ 5 Objecting or withdrawing consent for the processing of your data 

(1) If you have consented to the processing of your data, you may withdraw this consent at any time. Withdrawing consent in this way affects the legitimacy of the processing of your personal data, once you have informed us of this. 

(2) Providing our processing of your data is based on the balance of interests, you may object to this processing. This is the case if the processing is particularly not required for the fulfilment of a contract with you, which we explain in each case in the description of functions below. When you object in this way, please explain why we should not process your personal data in the way we have described. If your objection is reasonable, we will check the facts and will either stop or modify the data processing, or will explain our legitimate reasons for continuing to process your data. 

(3) You can of course object to your personal data being used for the purposes of advertising and data analysis at any time. You can contact us at the following address to inform us of your objection to advertising:  

info[at]tii-group.com 

 

§ 6 Use of our Salsa Portal 

(1) If you would like to use our portal you will need to register by entering your email address, a password of your choosing and any user name you like. You are under no obligation to use your real name; you may use a pseudonym. We use the so-called double-opt-in process for registration, i.e. your registration is only complete once you have confirmed your registration by clicking on a link in a confirmation email sent to you for this purpose. Your registration is automatically deleted from our database if this confirmation is not received. The data mentioned above must be provided. You may provide all other information voluntarily by using our portal. 

(2) Furthermore, we store the data you provide voluntarily while you are using the portal, unless you delete this beforehand. You can manage and modify all details in the protected customer area. The legal basis is set out in Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. 

§ 7 Newsletter 

(1) You may subscribe to our newsletter, which we use to keep you informed about our latest interesting offers. The advertised goods and services are listed in the declaration of consent. 

(2) We use the so-called double-opt-in process for newsletter subscriptions. This means that we send an email to the address you specify when subscribing, asking you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. If you do not confirm your subscription, your information is blocked and is deleted automatically after one month. We also store the IP addresses you use and the dates of your subscription and confirmation. The purpose of this process is to verify your subscription and to resolve a potential misuse of your personal data where applicable. 

(3) Your email address is the only mandatory detail we require to send the newsletter. Your details are required so as to enable us to address you personally. Once we have received your confirmation, we store your email address for the purpose of sending the newsletter. The legal basis is set out in Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. 

(4) You may withdraw your consent for the newsletter at any time and unsubscribe from the newsletter. You may unsubscribe by clicking on the link provided in each newsletter email or by sending a message to the contact details specified in the legal notice. 

(5) Please note that we evaluate your user behaviour when we send the newsletter. For this purpose, the emails we send contain so-called web beacons or tracking pixels, one-pixel image files, which are stored on our website. For the evaluations we link the data listed in § 3 and the web beacons with your email address and an individual ID. Links embedded in the newsletter also include this ID. 

Data is only recorded on a pseudonymised basis, i.e. the IDs are not linked to your other personal data, and there is no possibility of identifying you directly. 

You may object to this tracking at any time by clicking on the separate link that is provided in each email, or by informing us via a different method of contact. The information is stored for as long as you are subscribed to the newsletter. Once you unsubscribe, the data is stored anonymously and purely for statistical purposes.

§ 8 Use of Google Analytics 

(1) This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service from Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are saved on your computer and that enable analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookies regarding your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if the IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address is first abbreviated by Google in the Member States of the European Union or in Other States Party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is your full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website, to evaluate your use of this website, to create reports about the website activities, and to provide additional services connected with the website and Internet use to the website operator. 

(2) The IP address transmitted from your browser by Google Analytics is not combined with the other Google data. 

(3) You can prevent cookie storage using an appropriate setting in your browser software; however, we would like to point out that in this case you might not be able to use all functionalities of this website. You can also prevent the capture of data produced by the cookie and related to your use of the website (incl. your IP address) by Google, as well as the processing of this data by Google, by downloading and installing the opt-out browser plug-in available via the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

(4) This website uses Google Analytics with the expansion “_anonymizeIp()”. IP addresses are processed in a shortened form in this context, which means that personal identification is not possible. If the data collected about you includes a personal reference, this will be rejected immediately, and the personal data will be deleted without delay. 

(5) We use Google Analytics to analyse use of our website and to facilitate regular improvements. We can use the statistics produced to improve our service and to make our site more interesting to you as a user. 

(6) Information on the third-party provider: Google Dublin, Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Overview on data protection: http://www.google.com/intl/de/analytics/learn/privacy.html and the privacy policy: http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy

§ 9 Use of social media plug-ins 

(1) We currently use the following social media plug-ins: Facebook, Google+, Twitter. 

We use the so-called two-click solution in this context. This means that when you visit our site, no data is sent initially to the provider of the plug-in. You will be able to identify the provider of the plug-in from the marking on the box, the initial letters or the logo. We give you the opportunity to communicate directly with the provider of the plug-in via the button. The provider of the plug-in does not receive the information that you have visited the corresponding web page of our online presence until you click on the marked field, thereby activating it. The data listed under § 3 of this Privacy Policy is also transferred. 

In the case of Facebook, the IP address is anonymised as soon as it is captured according to the provider in Germany. Thus, by activating the plug-in, your personal data is sent to the respective provider of the plug-in and is stored there (in the USA in the case of US providers). As the provider of the plug-in collects data using cookies in particular, we recommend that you delete all cookies via your browser’s security settings before clicking on the greyed-out box. 

(2) We have no influence over the data that is collected and the data processing procedures, nor are we aware of the full extent of data collection, the purposes of processing and the storage periods. Moreover, we have no information about the erasure of the collected data by the provider of the plug-in. 

(3) The provider of the plug-in stores the data collected about you as a usage profile and uses this for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or needs-oriented website design. Such evaluation is effected in particular (including for users who are not logged in) so as to display appropriate advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You are entitled to object to this user profile being created and will need to contact the respective provider of the plug-in to exercise this right. We use the plug-in to give you the opportunity to interact with the social networks and other users, enabling us to improve our service and to make our website more interesting to you as a user. The legal basis for the use of the plug-in is set out in Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. 

(4) The data is transferred regardless of whether you have an account with the provider of the plug-in and are logged in there. If you are logged in with the provider of the plug-in, the data collected during your use of our site is assigned directly to your existing account with the provider of the plug-in. If you click the activated button and, e.g. link to the page, the provider of the plug-in also stores this information in your user account and and shares it publicly with your contacts. We recommend that you log out regularly when using a social network, but especially before activating the button, as this will prevent the provider of the plug-in from assigning such information to your profile. 

(5) You will find more information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and its processing in the privacy policies of the plug-in providers supplied below. You will also find more information on your rights in this regard and the adjustments you can make to your settings to protect your private sphere.

§ 10 AddThis bookmarking 

(1) Our web pages also include AddThis plug-ins. These plug-ins enable you to place bookmarks and to share interesting content with other users. We use the plug-in to give you the opportunity to interact with the social networks and other users, enabling us to improve our service and to make our website more interesting to you as a user. The legal basis for the use of the plug-in is set out in Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

The recipients receive the information that you have visited the corresponding web page of our website and the data listed under § 3 of this Policy. This information is processed on the servers of AddThis in the USA. [We have agreed standard privacy clauses with AddThis.]. If you send content from our website to social networks or bookmarking services, a connection can be made between the visit to our website and your user profile for the corresponding network. We have no influence over the data that is collected and the data processing procedures, nor are we aware of the full extent of data collection, the purposes of processing and the storage periods. Moreover, we have no information about the erasure of the collected data by the provider of the plug-in. 

(3) The provider of the plug-in stores this data as a usage profile and uses this for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or needs-oriented website design. Such evaluation is effected in particular (even for users who are not logged in) so as to provide appropriate advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You are entitled to object to this user profile being created and will need to contact the respective provider of the plug-in to exercise this right. 

(4) If you do not wish to participate in this process, you may object to the data collection and storage at any time by placing an opt-out cookie with future effect: http://www.addthis.com/privacy/opt-out. Alternatively, you can set up your browser to prevent the placement of cookies.

These are all embedded in the “extended data protection mode”, i.e. no data about you as a user will be sent to YouTube if you do not play the videos. The data listed in section (2) above is only sent when you play the videos. We have no influence over this data transmission. 

(2) When you visit the website, YouTube is informed that you have accessed the respective subpages of our website. The data listed under § 3 of this Privacy Policy is also transferred. This occurs regardless of whether you have a YouTube user account and are logged in, or whether you have no user account. If you are logged into Google, your data is assigned directly to your account. If you do not want YouTube to assign this data to your profile, you must log out before activating the button. YouTube stores this data as a usage profile and uses it for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or needs-oriented website design. Such evaluation is effected in particular (even for users who are not logged in) so as to provide appropriate advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You are entitled to object to this user profile being created and will need to contact YouTube to exercise this right. 

(3) You will find more information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and its processing by YouTube in the applicable privacy policy. You will also find more information on your rights and the adjustments you can make to your settings to protect your private sphere: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy

§ 12 Use of Google AdSense 

(1) This website uses the online advertising service Google AdSense, which is used to show you advertising tailored to your interests. We want to show you advertising that may interest you, in order to make our website more appealing to you. To this end, we gather statistical information about you that is processed by our advertising partners. You can recognise these adverts by the “Google Ads” note in each advert. 

(2) When you visit our website, Google is informed that you have accessed our website. Google uses a web beacon to place a cookie on your computer for this purpose. The data listed under § 3 of this Privacy Policy is transferred. We have no influence over the data that is collected, nor are we aware of the full extent of data collection and the storage periods. Your data is sent to the USA and evaluated there. If you are logged into your Google account, your data can be assigned directly to you. If you do not want this information to be assigned to your Google profile, you must log out. It is possible that this data will be passed to Google’s contractual partners, to third parties and to the authorities. The legal basis for the use of your data is set out in Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. [EITHER: This website does not show adverts from third-party providers via Google AdSense.] [OR: This website has also activated Google AdSense adverts from third-party providers. The aforementioned data may be sent to these third-party providers (listed at https://support.google.com/dfp_sb/answer/94149).] 

(3) You can prevent the installation of cookies by Google AdSense in different ways: a) by altering the settings in your browser software. Eliminating third-party cookies will stop you receiving adverts from third-party providers; 

b) by deactivating interest-based adverts with Google via the link http://www.google.de/ads/preferences, although this setting is deleted if you delete your cookies; 

c) by deactivating interest-based adverts from providers that are part of the “About Ads” self-regulation campaign, via the link http://www.aboutads.info/choices, although this setting is deleted if you delete your cookies; 

d) by permanently deactivating in your  Firefox, Internet Explorer or Google Chrome browsers via the link http://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. Please note that you may not be able to use all functions of this website fully if you take this step. 

(4) You will find more information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and its processing, as well as more information on your rights in this regard and the adjustments you can make to your settings to protect your private sphere at: Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountainview, California 94043, USA; data protection conditions for advertising: http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/technologies/ads

§ 13 Remarketing 

In addition to Adwords Conversion, we also use the application Google Remarketing. This is a process that allows us to target you again. This application enables us to display our adverts to you after you have visited our website and as you continue to use the Internet. We do this through cookies stored on your browser, which Google uses to record and evaluate your user behaviour when you visit different websites. Google can detect your previous visit to our website in this way. Google states that it does not combine the data collected as part of remarketing with personal data that it may have stored about you. In particular, Google states that pseudonymised data is used in relation to remarketing.  

§ 14 Use of social networks 

We have our own presence on various social media platforms, in order to showcase ourselves, to provide information, to make contact with users there and to communicate with them. 

Data processing by social networks 
We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social networks. The specific social networks we use are listed below. Social networks like Facebook, Twitter etc. are generally able to analyse your user behaviour in full if you visit their websites or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners). Various processing actions relevant to data protection are triggered when you visit our social media sites. In detail: if you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your user account. Your personal data may also be collected under certain circumstances if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. Data is collected in this instance using cookies, for example, which are stored on your end device, or by recording your IP address. The operators of the social media portals can use the collected data to create user profiles, in which your preferences and interests are stored. These profiles are then used to show you interest-based advertising within and beyond the respective social media presence. If you have an account with the respective social network, the interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in. Please also note that we cannot track all processing actions on the social media portals. Thus, other processing actions may be performed by the operators of social media portals, if necessary, depending on the provider. You will find details on this in the user conditions and data protection policies of the respective social media portals. Legal basis 
We use social media to ensure our online presence is as comprehensive as possible. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on other legal bases, which are detailed by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent within the meaning of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). Controller and exercising rights 
When you visit our social media sites (e.g. Facebook), we share responsibility for the data processing actions triggered by your visit with the operator of the social media platform. In principle you may exercise your rights (to information, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint) both with us and with the operator of the respective social media portal (e.g. with Facebook). Please note that despite the shared responsibility with the operators of the social media portals, we are not fully able to influence the data processing actions of the social media portals. Our options are largely determined by the corporate policy of the respective provider. Storage period 
Data we collect directly via our social media presence is erased by our systems once the reason it was stored no longer applies, you ask us to erase it, you withdraw your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Saved cookies remain on your end device until you delete them. This does not affect mandatory legal provisions – especially limitations of liability. We have no influence over how long your data is stored by the operators of social networks for their own purposes. For details, please check with the operators of social networks directly (e.g. in their privacy policies, see below). 3. Overview of our social media presence: Facebook – we have a profile on Facebook. This service is provided by Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland.

§ 15 Use of video conference systems 

We use the tool “Microsoft Teams” to conduct teleconferences, online meetings, video conferences and/or webinars (hereinafter: “online meetings”). “Microsoft Teams” is a service of the Microsoft Corporation. 

Note: if you access the “Microsoft Teams” website, the provider of “Microsoft Teams” is responsible for the data processing. However, in order to use “Microsoft Teams”, it is only necessary to access the website to download the software for use of “Microsoft Teams”. If you do not wish to or are not able to use the “Microsoft Teams” app, you can also use “Microsoft Teams” via your browser. The service is then also provided via the “Microsoft Teams” website. 2. Processing of personal data: various types of data are processed when you use “Microsoft Teams”. The scope of this data also depends on what data you provide before or during an online meeting. The following personal data is processed: user information: e.g. display name, email address if applicable, profile picture (optional), preferred language 
meeting metadata: e.g. date, time, meeting ID, telephone numbers, location 
text, audio and video data: where applicable, you are able to use the chat function in an online meeting. The text you enter is processed in this respect so that it can be displayed in the online meeting. In order to facilitate video and audio playback, data from the microphone of your end device and any video camera on your end device is processed accordingly for the duration of the meeting. You can switch off or mute the camera or the microphone yourself at any time using the “Microsoft Teams” app. Scope of processing 
We use “Microsoft Teams” to conduct online meetings. When we want to record online meetings, we will inform you of this in advance and – insofar as necessary – to ask for consent. We will record chat content if this is necessary to record the results of an online meeting. However, this will not usually be the case. Automated decision-making within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR is not used. Legal basis 
Insofar as personal data concerning employees of Scheuerle Fahrzeugfabrik GmbH, KAMAG Transporttechnik GmbH & Co. KG and Nicolas Industrie S.A.S is processed, the legal basis for this data processing is § 26 BDSG (German Data Protection Act) and/or Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. If, in connection with the use of “Microsoft Teams”, personal data is not required to establish, conduct or end the employment relationship, but is nevertheless an essential component for use of “Microsoft Teams”, the legal basis for this data processing is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our interest in these cases is based on effective conduct of online meetings. Otherwise, the legal basis for data processing for the conduct of online meetings is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, provided that the meetings are conducted within the framework of contractual relationships. Where there is no contractual relationship, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our interest here is also based on effective conduct of online meetings. Recipients / sharing data 
Personal data that is processed as a result of participation in online meetings will not be shared with third parties, unless this data is specifically intended to be shared. Please note that the content from online meetings and from personal meetings is often used to communicate information to customers, potential customers or third parties and thus is intended to be shared. Other recipients: the above data is shared with the provider of “Microsoft Teams” by necessity, insofar as this is provided for within the framework of our processing agreement with “Microsoft Teams”. Data processing outside the European Union 
Data is not processed outside the European Union (EU), as we only use data centres within the European Union for storage. It is possible for data to be routed via online servers that are outside the EU though. This may be the case in particular if participants in online meetings are located in a third country. However, data is encrypted when transmitted online and thus is secured against unauthorised access by third parties. 3. Your rights as the data subject 
You have the right to information about the personal data that relates to you. You may contact us for information at any time. If information requests are not made in writing, please understand that we may need to ask you to prove that you are the person you claim to be. You also have the right to rectification or erasure or to the restriction of processing, insofar as you are legally entitled to this right. Finally, you have the right to object to processing within the framework of the legal requirements. A right to data portability also exists within the framework of the requirements of data protection law. 4. Erasure of data 
We erase personal data when there is no longer a requirement for further retention. Such a requirement may arise in particular if the data is still required to fulfil contractual services, to check, fulfil or reject warranty and, where appropriate, guarantee claims. In the case of statutory retention obligations, erasure is only considered once the respective obligation has lapsed. 5. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority 
You have the right to lodge a complaint concerning our processing of personal data with a supervisory authority for data protection.
