Personal Data

According to Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR, personal data are all information relating to an identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, the name, address, customer number, telephone number and also the IP address. In summary, any information about natural persons who can directly or indirectly identify the person is to be regarded as personal data.

Accordingly, you will be informed in this way about the way in which personal data is processed on our homepage.

Data Collection and Processing 

The purpose of processing and collecting data on our website, in addition to ensuring safety, is to provide information on the subject of differentials and other drive components as well as general information about the company.

During processing, we pay particular attention to the necessity and proportionality in accordance with Art. 5 GDPR Beyond this, personal data will only be processed in accordance with Art. 6 of the GDPR

Your data will be transmitted by yourself when you contact us via our contact forms in order to find out about our range of products and services, job opportunities in other company-related matters.

In addition to voluntary transmission, your data is also transmitted automatically. For example, metadata such as the IP address, browser type and version, operating system used, data volume transmitted, time and date of access and referring URL are transmitted to our web servers when you visit our site. The collection of data is essential for the provision of our websites and the storage of data in log files for the operation of our websites and is based on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR The servers on which these websites are operated are located in Germany. We have concluded a corresponding order data processing contract with the service provider.

The IP address is made anonymous by a shortening, so that an identification of individual users is not possible at any time. Your data will be used in anonymous form for statistical purposes and to analyze user behavior. This ensures that our offers are always up-to-date and tailored to your needs.

The IP address is automatically deleted after 7 days. If there is a security incident, for example cyber attacks or repeated login attempts in the admin area, we store the data longer.

Your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. However, the deletion or blocking of the data is prevented if we as the responsible party have to comply with corresponding commercial or tax storage obligations. This is the case, for example, if we have to process accounting-relevant data and store it for 10 years in accordance with § 147 Para. 4 AO.

When using service providers, we have concluded an order data processing contract (ADV) with our service provider on the basis of Art. 28 GDPR to ensure that your data is handled in compliance with the law. Our service provider processes on our behalf in accordance with instructions. Thus the responsibility for the proper data processing remains with us.

Google Inc. 

A transfer of personal data to a third country (not an EU Member State) only takes place in connection with the use of Google services. Under data protection law, such processing in a non-EU Member State must first ensure that it complies with data protection requirements. This is given by Google’s participation in Privacy Shield. For this reason, an appropriate level of data protection can be assumed at Google during the processing of personal data. The individual Google services are described below.

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics from Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). Google Analytics uses cookies, which enable us to analyze the user behavior on our websites.

The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6 Par. 1 lit. f GDPR. We as website operators have a legitimate interest in analyzing the behavior of our users on our websites. Such an evaluation helps us to optimize our website and the user-friendliness of the website.

We have activated the IP anonymization function on this website. However, this will reduce Google’s IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The IP address will be reduced within Member States of the European Union or other States party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area prior to transmission to the United States. Only in exceptional cases, will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website and Internet use.

Google Ajax & jQuery Bibliotheca

We use the so-called Ajax & jQuery technologies on our site in order to be able to call corresponding program libraries from Google, so-called CDN (Content delivery network). By using Ajax and jQuery we hope to optimize the loading speed. This can happen, for example, if a user has already used Google CDN on another page and the browser accesses the cached copy. If this is not the case, the browser will download Google CDN and send data and browser information to Google. We would like to inform you that a transfer to the USA could be submitted. Further information can be found on the websites of the providers or at: https://developers.google.com/speed/libraries/#jquery

Google Web Fonts

External fonts, the so-called Google Fonts, are used on these Internet pages. Google Fonts allows us to present the fonts on our web pages in a uniform way. When you access the website, your browser loads the web fonts into your browser cache. These web fonts are integrated by a server call, usually a Google server in the USA. For this purpose, we transmit to the server which of our Internet pages or subpages you have visited. This gives Google the IP address of the visitor’s browser. This processing is carried out within the meaning of Art. 6 1 letter F DSGVO and represents a legitimate interest of those responsible. For more information, please see Google’s privacy policy:
