Data Privacy Policy

We are very pleased about your interest in our company. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG. It is possible to use the Internet pages of Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG without providing any personal data. However, if clients would like to use special services on our website, it might be necessary to process personal data. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as name, address, e-mail address, or the telephone number of a data subject will always be in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG. By means of this Data Privacy Policy, our company would like to inform the general public of the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. Furthermore, this Data Privacy Policy informs data subjects about the rights to which they are entitled.

As the data controller, Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions may be subject to security gaps, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transfer personal data to us using an alternative way, such as over the phone.

1. Definitions

The Data Privacy Policy of Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our Data Privacy Policy should be easy to read and understand for the general public, as well as our clients and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to first explain the terminology used.

In this Data Privacy Policy, we use, among others, the following terms:

a) Personal data

“Personal data” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”). An identifiable natural person is a person 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” means any identified or identifiable natural person, whose personal data are processed by the data controller responsible for the processing.

c) Processing

“Processing” means any operation or set of operations which is performed with personal data or with 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 another form of making available, comparing or combining, restricting, erasing, or destroying.

d) Restriction of processing

“Restriction of processing” means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.

e) 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.

f) Pseudonymisation

“Pseudonymisation” means the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject 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.

g) Data controller or data controller responsible for the processing

“Controller” means 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.

h) Data processor

i) Recipient

“Recipient” means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or another body, to whom/which the personal data are disclosed, whether it is 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 are not regarded as recipients.

j) Third party

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

k) Consent

“Consent” of the data subject means any freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s 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.

The data controller for the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), other data protection laws applicable in Member states of the European Union and other provisions related to data protection is:

Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG
Parzleithen 8

Austria
phone: +43 7733 7245
e-mail: maschinenbau[at]@perndorfer.at
website: www.perndorfer.at

3. Cookies

The Internet pages of Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser.

Many Internet sites and servers use cookies. 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 distinguish the browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognised and identified using the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimised with the user in mind. Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognise our website users. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilise our website. The website user that uses cookies does not, for instance, have to enter access data each time the website is accessed because this is done 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 data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by making a corresponding setting on the Internet browser, and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time on the Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all popular Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser, not all features of our website may be used in their entirety.

4. Collection of general data and information

The website of Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG collects a series of general data and information when a data subject or automated system visits the website. This general data and information are stored in the server log files. Collected may be (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites, (5) the date and time of access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) 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, Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimise the content of our website as well as its advertisement, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our information technology systems and website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. Therefore, Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG analyses anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the goal of enhancing our company’s data privacy and data security of our company 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 data subject.

5. Contact possibility via the website

The website of Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG contains information that enables a quick electronic contact to our enterprise, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a data subject contacts the data controller by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject are automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the data controller are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties.

6. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data

The data controller will process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted by the European legislator and regulation maker in laws or regulations to which the data controller is subject.

If the storage purpose is not applicable, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another responsible legislator expires, the personal data are routinely blocked or erased in accordance with legal requirements.

This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG will no longer process the personal data in the event of the objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.

If Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the 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 data subject objects to Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG to the processing for direct marketing purposes, Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.

In addition, the data subject 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.

h) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

Each data subject has the right granted by the European directive and regulation maker not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her, or similarly significantly affects him or her, as long as the decision (1) is not is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller, or (2) is not authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is not based on the data subject’s explicit consent.

If the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller, or (2) it is based on the data subject’s explicit consent, Perndorfer Maschinenbau KG will implement suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the data controller, to express his or her point of view and contest the decision.

8. Privacy policy regarding the use and enjoyment of Facebook

The data controller has integrated Facebook components on this website. Facebook is a social network.

A social network is a social meeting point operated on the Internet, an online community that usually enables users to communicate with each other and interact in virtual space. A social network can serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences or enables the Internet community to provide personal or company-related information. Facebook enables users of the social network to create private profiles, upload photos and network via friend requests.

The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc. 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. The person responsible for processing personal data is Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland if a person concerned lives outside the USA or Canada.

Each time one of the individual pages of this website is accessed, operated by the data controller and on which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-in) has been integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Facebook component to download a representation of the corresponding Facebook component from Facebook. A complete overview of all Facebook plug-ins can be found at

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=de_DE As part of this technical process, Facebook obtains information about which specific subpage of our website is visited by the person concerned.

If the person concerned is logged into Facebook at the same time, Facebook recognises which specific page of our website the person concerned is visiting each time the person visits our website and for the entire duration of the person’s stay on our website. This information is collected by the Facebook component and assigned by Facebook to the respective Facebook account of the person concerned. If the person concerned clicks one of the Facebook buttons integrated on our website, for example the “Like” button, or if the person concerned makes a comment, Facebook assigns this information to the personal Facebook user account of the person concerned and stores this personal data.

Facebook receives information through the Facebook component that the individual concerned has visited our website whenever the individual concerned is logged into Facebook at the same time as accessing our website, whether or not the individual clicks on the Facebook component. If the data subject does not want this information to be transferred to Facebook in this way, he or she can prevent the transfer by logging out of his or her Facebook account before accessing our website.

Facebook’s published privacy policy, available at

https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/ discloses Facebook’s collection, processing, and use of personal information. It also explains what settings Facebook offers to protect the privacy of the person concerned. In addition, various applications are available that make it possible to suppress data transmission to Facebook. Such applications can be used by the data subject to suppress data transmission to Facebook.

9. Data protection provisions about the application and use of Google Analytics (with anonymisation feature)

The data controller has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymisation feature) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analysis service. Web analysis is the collection, collection, and evaluation of data on the behaviour of visitors to Internet pages. A web analysis service collects data on, among other things, from which website a person concerned came to a website (so-called referrers), which subpages of the website were accessed, or how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. A web analysis is mainly used to optimise a website and to analyse the costs and benefits of Internet advertising.

The operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

The data controller uses the addition “_gat._anonymizeIp” for the web analysis via Google Analytics. This addition is used by Google to shorten and anonymise the IP address of the Internet connection of the person concerned if access to our Internet pages is from a member state of the European Union or from another state party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyse the flow of visitors to our website. Google uses the data and information obtained, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us showing the activities on our website and to provide other services in connection with the use of our website.

Google Analytics places a cookie on the information technology system of the person concerned. What cookies are has already been explained above. When the cookie is set, Google is able to analyse the use of our website. Each time you access one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the data controller and on which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the person concerned is automatically prompted by the respective Google Analytics component to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical process, Google obtains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the person concerned, which Google uses, among other things, to track the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently to enable commission statements.

The cookie is used to store personal information such as the access time, the location from which the access originated and the frequency of visits to our website by the person concerned. Each time you visit our website, this personal data, including the IP address of the Internet connection used by the person concerned, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. These personal data are stored by Google in the United States of America. Google may share this personal data collected through the technical process with third parties. Google may share this personal data collected through the technical process with third parties.

The person concerned can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time, as described above, by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the person concerned. In addition, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.

Furthermore, it is possible for the person concerned to object to and prevent the collection of data generated by Google Analytics and relating to the use of this website and the processing of this data by Google. For this purpose, the person concerned must download and install a browser add-on under the link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. This browser add-on informs Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data and information on visits to Internet pages may be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered a contradiction by Google. If the data subject’s information technology system is later deleted, formatted, or reinstalled, the data subject must reinstall the browser add-on in order to deactivate Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the person concerned or by another person within his/her sphere of control, the browser add-on may be reinstalled or reactivated.

For more information and to review Google’s current privacy policies, please visit https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html. Google Analytics is explained in more detail at this link, https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/analytics/.

At the moment Google Analytics is not active on our www.perndorfer.at as of May 24, 2018 . Changes to this and the activation and deactivation of Google Analytics will be made known immediately in our Data Privacy Policy and in the Legal Notice on our website.

10. Use of Google AdWords Conversion Tracking

This website uses the online advertising programme “Google AdWords” and conversion tracking as part of Google AdWords. The Google conversion tracking is a web analysis service belonging to Google (1600 Amphietheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). When a user clicks on an ad delivered by Google, a cookie is stored for the conversion tracking on the user’s computer. These cookies lose their validity after 90 days. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not expired, the website operator and Google can see that the user clicked on the ad and was directed to that page. The information collected from the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics. The website operator will know the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were directed to a page with a conversion tracking tag and/or performed certain actions on the site. However, the website operator will receive no information that lets it personally identify users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can opt out of this use by turning off the Google Conversion Tracking cookie in your Internet browser (deactivation option). You will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. You can find out more about Google’s privacy policy at the following Internet address:

http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/, http://www.google.de/policies/privacy/

The relationship to the web analytics operator when using Google AdWords Conversion Tracking is based on contract data processing. The transmission of data to the client is based on an adequacy decision made the European Commission (self-certification privacy shield). The data are deleted regularly (at the moment every 6 months).

11. Legal basis for the processing

Point (a) of Art. 6(1) of the GDPR serves our company as a legal basis for processing operations in 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 data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the processing is based on point (b) of Art. 6(1) of the GDPR. The same shall apply to such processing operations which are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries regarding our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, such as for the fulfilment of tax obligations, the processing is based on point (c) of Art. 6(1) of the GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may become necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our site were injured and his name, age, health insurance information or other vital information would have to be disclosed to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on point (d) of Art. 6(1) of the GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on point (f) of Art. 6(1) of the GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not predominate. Such processing operations are permitted to us in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the data controller (recital 47 sentence 2 GDPR).

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

The processing of personal data is based on point (f) of Art. 6(1) of the GDPR our legitimate interest is to carry out our business for the benefit of all our employees and shareholders.

13. Period for which the personal data are stored

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

14. Legal or contractual provisions for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of not providing the data

We will inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary for a contract to be concluded that a person concerned makes personal data available to us which must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with him or her. Failure to provide personal data would mean that the contract could not be concluded with the data subject. Before the data subject provides personal data, he or she must contact our data protection officer. Our data protection officer informs the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of a contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what consequences the non-availability of the personal data would have.

15. Existence of automated decision making

As a responsible company, we refrain from automatic decision-making or profiling.
