Data Protection - Superior Industries International, Inc.
Superior Industries Europe AG takes the protection of personal data very seriously and complies strictly with the requirements of the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) and the applicable country-specific data protection requirements. The following declaration provides a generally understandable summary of the nature, scope and purpose of data processing.
Superior Industries Europe AG applies technical and organizational safeguards to protect its website and the data it manages from intentional or accidental manipulation, loss, destruction, modification and access by unauthorized individuals. When we store or process personal data, this is performed at our high-security computer center in Germany. We use encryption techniques (e.g. SSL) when we transfer data via HTTPS to ensure the security of your data. Our servers are secured by firewalls and antivirus software. Back-up and recovery procedures as well as user roles and authorization concepts are a natural component of our systems. Existing security measures are improved on a constant basis to keep them up with the state of the art.
This data protection information applies to the processing of data by Superior Industries Europe AG, Email: datenschutz@de.uniwheels.com, phone: +49 (0) 6322 9899 - 6400, fax: +49 (0) 6322 9899 – 6401.
According to Art. 4 (1) GDPR, personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person. Such information as the person’s name, address, telephone numbers or email addresses fall under the definition of personal data.
When our website is visited, the web-server uses data that is conveyed by the respective browser of the user to transfer data. This data is captured and stored to some extent in log files. This data includes information on the operating system used, the browser and the browser version, the country and provider from which access is made, the pseudonymized IP, the time of access, the referrer (the website visited beforehand), the time at which the query is made, the data volume transferred and the files downloaded, which are only presented in summary form. It is not possible for Superior Industries Europe AG to identify a person from this data as the IP addresses are pseudonymized. This data is not combined with data from other data sources. The data is captured and stored to ensure that the connection is established and that the website can be used smoothly, to analyze system security and stability and for other administrative purposes. The legal foundation for processing this data is provided by Art. 6 (1) Sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

Before a customer can place an order via our online shop the customer must establish a password-protected customer account. This contains a summary of the orders already placed and active orders as well as the wish list set up by the customer. If you, as a customer, leave the online shop via the log-out button, you will be automatically logged out. We do not assume any liability for the abuse of passwords, unless we have caused such abuse by our own actions.
We store all data that is entered by customers to place an order. This includes the surname, first name, address, payment data, email address, telephone number and company. This data is captured in order to identify you as our customer and to process your order, deliver the goods or services and settle our obligations, as well as to issue correspondence and invoices to you, as well as to settle any warranty claims or pursue any claims against you and to ensure the technical administration of our website and manage customer data.
