1.  Preamble

Welcome to our website! We place the utmost importance on protecting your data and the protection of your privacy. We set out below what data we process when, and the purpose and legal basis of the processing. The aim is to explain how we work on the services we offer and how we guarantee the protection of your personal data whilst doing so.

Personal data means all information under Art. 4 section 1 GDPR which relates to an identified or identifiable natural person. A natural person is regarded as identifiable if they can be identified either directly or indirectly. Further information is available in Art. 4 section 1 GDPR.

This privacy policy may be called up, stored and printed out at any time at www.walterscheid-group.com/data-and-privacy .

If we invoke our legitimate interest or the legitimate interest of a third party as the legal basis of processing personal data (art. 6 para. 1 letter f) GDPR), you are entitled to object under art. 21 GDPR:

Under art. 21 GDPR you have the right

to object to the processing of personal data at any time. We will then no longer process the personal data for the purpose of direct marketing or profiling associated with this.

After an objection, we will then not process your personal data for other purposes, unless we can prove compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms or if the processing is being used to pursue, exercise or defend legal claims (cf. art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, the “restricted right to object“). In this case, you have to set out the reasons for the objection that relate to your particular situation.

You may also object to the processing of your personal data undertaken for the purposes of scientific or historic research or for statistical purposes for reasons arising from your particular situation under art. 89 para. 1 GDPR unless processing is necessary to fulfil a task which is in the public interest (cf. art. 21 para. 6 GDPR).

We will again draw your attention to your right to object separately in individual sections (e.g. by noting: “You have the right to object”), if this right exists. You will also find further information on exercising your right to object there.

To ensure that the following privacy policy is easy to understand, we will refer at various points to links to information and data protection notices available on external websites (cf. also section “Social networks & External links” in this privacy policy. We take great care to ensure that we keep the links included in this privacy policy up-to-date. Due to the constant updating of the websites, we therefore cannot exclude the possibility that the links do not work correctly. Should you notice such a link, we would be grateful if you inform us, so that we can update the current link.

The purpose of this processing is the ability of our website to be called up by your device, and to ensure that correct presentation of our website is possible on your device/in your browser. We also use the data to optimise our website and ensure that our systems are secure. A further purpose of processing is to recognise the country (GEO-IP) for the choice of system language. Processing of your IP address by our system is also necessary to make delivery of our website to your device possible. We use the log data to analyse the most clicked or most read articles.

The legal basis for processing is art. 6 para 1 letter f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in presenting you with a website that is optimised for your browser, and to facilitate communication between our server and your device. For the latter, processing of your IP address in particular is necessary.

The data are stored by us for a period of 3 months.

The provision of personal data is neither required by law nor by contract and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Neither are you obliged to provide the personal data. The consequence of not providing the personal data could, however, result in you not being able to use, or not fully use, our website.

The provision of personal data is neither required by law nor by contract and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Neither are you obliged to provide the personal data. The consequence of not providing the personal data could, however, result in you not being able to use, or not fully use, our website.

Other services which we use, also use cookies. We notify you separately of the use of cookies in the individual services.

6. Information on Google Services

On our website we use various services provided by Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Irland

You can find out more information on specific individual Google services which we use on this website in the privacy policy below.

Under certain circumstances, Google may collect and process information (including personal data) due to the inclusion of Google services. We cannot exclude the possibility that Google may also transmit this information to a server in a third country.

Google’s Privacy Shield certificate (see https://www.privacyshield.gov/list under the search term “Google”), states that Google has given an undertaking to comply with the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss-US Privacy Shield Framework in respect of the collection, use and storage of personal data from EU member states/Switzerland. Google, including Google LLC and its 100% subsidiaries in the USA, has declared through certification that it abides by the principles of the Privacy Shield. You can find more information on this at https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/frameworks/.

We ourselves cannot influence which data Google actually collects and processes. However, Google states that the information processed (including personal data) may include the following:

  • Protocol data (particularly the IP address)
  • Location related information
  • Unique application numbers
  • Cookies and similar technologies

You can find information on the types of cookies used by Google at https://policies.google.com/technologies/types.

If you are signed into your Google account, Google may add the processed information to your account, depending on your account settings, and treat it as personal data. Amongst other details, Google states as follows:

„If you are not signed into a Google account, we store the data we have collected with unique identifiers linked to the browser, app or device which you are using. This enables us to guarantee that, for example, your language settings are retained in all browser sessions.

If you are signed into a Google account, we also collect data which we store in your Google account and regard as personal data.“ (https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en)

You can prevent this data being added by logging out of your Google account or by selecting the appropriate account settings in your Google account. It is also possible to prevent the installation of cookies (if Google has installed any) by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all the functions of this website to their full extent.

  • Apple Safari: Website
  • Microsoft Internet Explorer: Website

7. Google Analytics

On our website we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Irland

Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files which are stored on your device and which make it possible to analyse use of the websites you visit. Google Analytics may also use so-called “web beacons” (invisible graphics). These web beacons enable information such as visitor traffic on websites to be analysed. The information produced by cookies and web beacons on the use of our website (including the user’s IP address) is transmitted to a Google server, possibly in the USA or other third countries, and stored there. This information may be passed on by Google to its contractual partners.

Information on Google’s existing Privacy Shield certification and other relevant data on Google’s data processing within the framework of the use of Google services can be found in this privacy policy under section „6. Information on Google services“.

The following types of data are processed by Google:

  • Online identifiers (including cookie identifiers)
  • IP address
  • Device identifiers

In addition, you can find more detailed information about the information processed at https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/#infocollect under “Data we receive as a result of your use of our services” and at https://privacy.google.com/businesses/adsservices/.

We only use Google Analytics with IP-anonymisation activated. This means that your IP address will be shortened by Google within EU member states or in other countries which are party to agreements governing the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

We have furthermore entered into an agreement for contract processing with Google for the use of Google Analytics (art. 28 GDPR). Google processes the data on our behalf to analyse your use of the website, compile reports for us on website activities and to provide us with further services associated with use of the website and the internet. Google may under certain circumstances transmit this information to a third party if required by law to do so, or if a third party is processing this data on Google’s behalf.

By using Google Analytics we are pursuing the aim of analysing user behaviour on our website so that we can react to it. This enables us to continuously improve our offer.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data described here is art. 6 para 1 letter f) GDPR. The required legitimate interest in doing so lies in the great benefit which the functions described above have for our offer. Statistical analysis of user behaviour makes it possible for us in particular to react to and optimise our offer to suit users’ needs.

Within the framework of contract processing, Google is entitled to engage sub-contractors. A list of these sub-contractors can be found at https://privacy.google.com/businesses/subprocessors/ 

8. Use of Google Maps

We use Google Maps on our website. Google Maps is a service provided by Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Irland.

The Google Maps plug-in is included by embedding the service on our website using what are known as “iFrames”. When loading these iFrames, under certain circumstances Google may collect and process information (including personal data). We cannot exclude the possibility that Google may also transmit this information to a server in a third country.

Information on Google’s existing Privacy Shield certification and other relevant data on Google’s data processing within the framework of the use of Google services can be found in this privacy policy under section „6. Information on Google services“.

We do not ourselves collect any data when you use Google Maps through our website.

By including Google Maps we are pursuing the aim of showing you our address and making further information available to you for your journey. By including Google Maps we are also able to present locations to you so that you are not restricted to individual map pages and can look up distances etc. for yourself.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data described here in art. 6 para 1 letter f) GDPR. The required legitimate interest in doing so lies in the great benefit which Google Maps offers. Including Google Maps means that we do not need, for instance, to provide diagrams of access routes to the respective locations, therefore making it possible for every user to plan their journey independently. Google also has a legitimate interest in the collected (personal) data to improve its own services.

Right to object – you have the right to object

You can send or inform us of your objection at any time (e.g. by email to gdpr@walterscheid.com).

The provision of personal data is neither required by law nor by contract and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Neither are you obliged to provide the personal data. The consequence of not providing the personal data could, however, result in you not being able to use, or not fully use, our website.

You can find out further information about Google’s data protection notices by downloading here: www.google.com/policies/privacy/

You can find information about Google’s privacy settings at https://privacy.google.com/take-control.html?categories_activeEl=sign-in

9. Google Ads (formerly: Google AdWords)

This website uses Google AdWords and, within the framework of GoogleAdWords, Conversion Tracking, an online advertising service owned by Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Irland. Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service provided by Google. When you click on an advert placed by Google, a “cookie” (a text file) will be stored on your device which makes it possible to analyse use of the websites you visit. The information produced by cookies on the use of this website (including the user’s IP address) is transmitted to a Google server, possibly in the USA or other third countries, and stored there. These cookies become invalid after 30 days. If you visit some of our websites and the stored cookie has not yet expired, we and Google will be able to detect that someone has clicked on the advert and been forwarded to our website.

Information on Google’s existing Privacy Shield certification and other relevant data on Google’s data processing within the framework of the use of Google services can be found in this privacy policy under section „6. Information on Google services“.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data described here is art. 6 para 1 letter f) GDPR. Due to the possibility of analysing the success of individual offers, (insert data controller) can react in a specifically targeted way to market behaviour and place their offers in the best possible way for interested users. Google also has a legitimate interest in the (personal) data collected to improve its own services.

You may object to the processing of these data in accordance with art. 21 GDPR. For this purpose you can deactivate the settings for personalised advertising at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=en. You may also prevent the installation of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser.

The provision of personal data is neither required by law nor by contract and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Neither are you obliged to provide the personal data. The consequence of not providing the personal data could, however, result in you not being able to use, or not fully use, this function or our website.

10. Google AdSense

On our website we also use functions of the online advertising service Google AdSense. Google AdSense is a service provided by Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Irland.

Google AdSense is a service provided by Google with which Google advertising is displayed by advertisers on third party websites. By including Google AdSense we make corresponding advertising space available to Google on our website.

Google AdSense uses “cookies”, text files which are stored on your device and which make it possible to analyse use of the websites you visit. Google AdSense may also use so-called “web beacons” (invisible graphics). These web beacons enable information such as visitor traffic on the pages of this offer to be analysed. The information produced by cookies and web beacons on the use of our website (including the user’s IP address) and delivery of advertising formats are transmitted to a Google server, possibly in the USA or other third countries, and stored there. In this way Google can understand on which website the advertising material was used, in order to assign a commission to the website operator.

Information on Google’s existing Privacy Shield certification and other relevant data on Google’s data processing within the framework of the use of Google services can be found in this privacy policy under section „6. Information on Google services“.

In addition, you can find more detailed information about the information processed at https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/#infocollect under “Data we receive as a result of your use of our services” and at https://privacy.google.com/businesses/adsservices/.

In including Google AdSense we are pursuing the aim of being able to offer you advertising related to your interests and to finance our offer by successful use of advertising materials.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data described here is art. 6 para 1 letter f) GDPR. The required legitimate interest in doing so lies in the great benefit which the functions described above have for our offer. We have a legitimate interest in presenting advertising to you on our website related to your interests so that the advertising material achieves the highest possible success rate.

The data will only be processed as long as necessary for the provision of the function.

Right to object – you have the right to object

You can also prevent the data which is generated by the cookie concerning your use of the website (incl. your IP address) being transmitted to Google and processed by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin which is available via the following link:

https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en

You also have the option of deactivating Google adverts related to your interests by following the instructions in the following link: https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=en.

You can further prevent the collection of data by web beacons by downloading and installing the add-on available under the following link for the respective browser:

https://adblockplus.org/

You can find out further information about Google’s data protection notices by downloading here: www.google.com/policies/privacy/

You can find information about Google’s privacy settings at: https://privacy.google.com/take-control.html?categories_activeEl=sign-in

The provision of personal data is neither required by law nor by contract and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Neither are you obliged to provide the personal data. The consequence of not providing the personal data could, however, result in you not being able to use, or not fully use, our website.

11. Use of YouTube

We use videos from YouTube on our website. YouTube is a service of YouTube LLC („YouTube“), 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA and is provided by this company. YouTube LLC is a subsidiary of Google LLC (“Google”), 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

YouTube is included by embedding the service on our website using what are known as “iFrames”. When loading these iFrames, under certain circumstances YouTube/Google may collect and process information (including personal data). We cannot exclude the possibility that YouTube or Google may also transmit this information to a server in a third country.

Information on Google’s existing Privacy Shield certification and other relevant data on Google’s data processing within the framework of the use of Google services can be found in this privacy policy under section „6. Information on Google services“.

We use YouTube in what is known as “expanded data protection mode”. According to information provided by Google, a video can be played in this mode without user behaviour being collected by cookies. We do not collect any data ourselves when you watch a YouTube video with us.

By including YouTube we are pursuing the aim of being able to present you with various videos on our website so that you can view these directly on our website.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data described here is art. 6 para 1 letter f) GDPR. The required legitimate interest in doing so lies in the great benefit which YouTube offers. By including external videos we reduce the load on our servers and can use the corresponding resources in other ways. This can, for instance, improve the stability of our servers. YouTube/Google also has a legitimate interest in the (personal) data to improve its own services.

Right to object – You have the right to object

You can send or inform us of your objection at any time (e.g. by email to gdpr@walterscheid.com).

You can also change your cookie settings (e.g. delete cookies, block cookies, etc.). Further information is available under “5. Cookies“.

The provision of personal data is neither required by law nor by contract and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Neither are you obliged to provide the personal data. The consequence of not providing the personal data could, however, result in you not being able to use content on our website.

12. Use of Myfonts

a) MyFonts Fonts

We use external fonts from MyFonts on our website. “MyFonts” is a service provided by MyFonts Inc., 500 Unicorn Park Drive, Woburn, MA 01801, USA. MyFonts Inc. is owned by the company Monotype Imaging Holdings Inc., 600 Unicorn Park Drive, Woburn, Massachusetts 01801, USA.

Integration of the fonts takes place via an interface (API). Under certain circumstances, “MyFonts” may collect and process information (including personal data) due to the inclusion of the fonts. We cannot exclude the possibility that “MyFonts” may also transmit this information to a server in a third country.

We do not ourselves collect any data within the context of making fonts available.

By inclusion of fonts we are pursuing the aim of being able to display uniform font types on your device.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data described here is art. 6 para 1 letter f) GDPR. The required legitimate interest in doing so lies in the great benefit which the inclusion of font types offers. The possibility of uniform presentation means that we can keep design costs lower than if we had to react to the font standards of various operating systems/browsers with our own graphically adapted websites. MyFonts also has a legitimate interest in the collected (personal) data to improve its own services.

Right to object – You have the right to object

You can send or inform us of your objection at any time (e.g. by email to gdpr@walterscheid.com).

The provision of personal data is neither required by law nor by contract and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Neither are you obliged to provide the personal data. The consequence of not providing the personal data could, however, result in you not being able to use, or not fully use, our website and the display on the website changing.

Further information can also be found under the following link:

https://www.monotype.com/legal/terms-and-conditions-of-business/#Privacy

b) MyFonts Counter

We also use the web analysis service “MyFonts Counter” on our website. This is a web analysis service provided by MyFonts Inc., 500 Unicorn Park Drive, Woburn, MA 01801, USA. MyFonts Inc. is owned by the company Monotype Imaging Holdings Inc., 600 Unicorn Park Drive, Woburn, Massachusetts 01801, USA.

Due to MyFonts’ licence conditions, tracking is carried out. This tracking service counts the number of visits to our website for statistical purposes and sends the result to MyFonts. The possibility that MyFonts will process your IP address cannot be excluded.

Further information can also be found under the following link:

The provision of personal data is neither required by law nor by contract and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Neither are you obliged to provide the personal data. Not providing your data would, however, have the consequence that we would not be able to send you a newsletter.

14. Use of OHP CM-Expert-Cloud / CM-Software

As a registered customer, you are able to use our Monitoring Cloud to test the functioning of your machines. Measurement data which are collected via the machines’ sensors are evaluated and displayed by it in real time. Alarm thresholds which indicate when limit values have been exceeded can be set in the system. Speed, acceleration, RMS, imbalance, alignment and BIAS trends, as well as the speed signal, are displayed and can be compared with one another in individually selected time windows. Raw signals and the FFT analysis make a quick overview of the current situation and developments possible. The relationship with the actual situation becomes transparent via an individually configurable visualisation. With its link to the respective site software, all current methods of analysis are also available.

To fully use the services provided by the Cloud, you must first register. In addition to setting your access data (user name and password), it is necessary to register your name, company, telephone number and email address, including details of anyone deputising for you, in order to guarantee secure and prompt communication of alarm messages and to pass on recommended actions. The legal basis for this is art. 6 para. 1 letter b GDPR, as it is necessary to process your data in order to make the service available. Registration is also necessary in order to identify you unambiguously, and has the purpose of preventing misuse or unauthorised access.

Your personal data will be stored for the duration of the contractual relationship and deleted after it has ended, taking into account statutory storage requirements.

You have the right to object to the use of your data at any time. However, providing personal data is necessary for concluding the contract and using the service. Failure to provide data would therefore under circumstances have the consequence that you would no longer be able to use the service, unless you make an alternative user available.

15. Contact form

You will find a contact form on our website which you can use to make contact electronically. If you contact us via this contact form, the data entered in the input fields will be processed by us.

The following data are mandatory:

  • Email address
  • First name
  • Surname
  • Information which arises from the text of the message in each case
  • Reason for contacting us

In addition, you can add further data as voluntary information. This may simplify and speed up the processing of your request. The following data are potentially affected:

  • Information which arises from the text of the message in each case

Mandatory details and voluntary details will be treated by us on equal terms. Mandatory details are necessary to make contact with you and process your enquiry.

  • Your IP address
  • Date and time of sending

Please note that the extent of the personal data collected from the contact form also depends on which data you yourself disclose on the contact form in the text of the message.

The purpose of processing personal data within the context of mandatory details as well as voluntary details is to process the contact enquiry and to enable us to contact the person making the enquiry so that we can answer it. The other personal data (IP address, date and time of sending) is used to prevent any misuse of our contact form.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data described here is art. 6 para 1 letter f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to offer you the opportunity to contact us at any time so that we can answer your enquiries.

The personal data will only be processed as long as necessary for the provision of the function.
Any additional personal data collected when the contact form is sent will be deleted within 60 days at the latest.

17. Social networks & external links

In addition to this website, we maintain a presence on various social media which you can access via various interfaces on our website. If you visit us on such social media, personal data may be transmitted to the provider of the social network.

We wish to draw attention to the fact that user data may also be transmitted to a server in a third country during such a process, and therefore could be processed outside the area of the European Union.

It is possible that in addition to the storage of the data you have specifically entered in this social medium, other information may also be processed by the social network provider.

In addition, the social network provider may process the most important data from the computer system you are using to visit the network – for instance, your IP address, the processer type used and the browser version including plug-ins.

If you are logged in with your personal user account for the respective network during the visit to such a website, this network can assign the visit to this account.

The scope and purpose of data collection by the respective medium and further processing of your data there, as well as your rights in this respect, can be found in the respective terms and conditions of the relevant provider, e.g.:

  • Facebook (Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA):

18. Data security

We take technical and organisational measures to secure our website and other systems against loss, destruction, attack, alteration or dissemination of your data by unauthorised persons. Despite regular checks, complete protection against all risks is not, however, possible.

19. Modification of the data protection declaration

Modification in the law or changes in our internal company processes may make it necessary to revise this privacy policy. If we make such a modification, we will inform you of this at the start of the privacy policy.

20. Revocation

You have the right to revoke consents given once at any time without this having any effect on the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent until you revoke it.
