Thank you for visiting our website, www.tece.com/in, and thank you for your interest in our company. The protection of your personal data is important to us. Personal data is information about personal or factual circumstances of a specific or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, the real name, address, telephone number and date of birth of a person, but also all other data that can be related to an identifiable person.
Since personal data is subject to special legal protection, it is only collected by us to the extent necessary for the provision of our website and the performance of our services. Below we describe which personal information we collect during your visit to our website, and how we use it.
Our data privacy practice complies with legal regulations, in particular those of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), the German Telemedia Act (TMG) and the General Data Protection Regulation of the EU (GDPR). We will only collect, process and store your personal data insofar as this is necessary for the functional provision of this website and our contents and services, as well as for the processing of inquiries and, if applicable, for the processing of orders / contracts, but only insofar as there is a legitimate interest for this within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(1)(f) GDPR or if any other justification exists. Only if you have given your prior consent separately will your data also be used for additional, precisely defined purposes, e.g. for sending advertising information by newsletter.
Websites and resources (images, files, other page content) accessed on our website.
This data is stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with personal data of a specific user, meaning that individual page visitors are not identified.
Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest). It is in our legitimate interest to ensure that the purpose described below is achieved.
Logging takes place to maintain the compatibility of our website for as many visitors as possible and to combat abuse and rectify malfunctions. For this purpose, it is necessary to log the technical data of the accessing computer in order to be able to react as early as possible to display errors, attacks on our IT systems and/or errors in the functionality of our website. In addition, the data enables us to optimize the website and to generally ensure the security of our information technology systems.
The above technical data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for ensuring the compatibility of the website for all visitors, but no later than 3 months after you access our website.
The data you entered when registering for the newsletter.
The data recorded in the registration form of our newsletter is used by us exclusively for sending our newsletter, in which we provide information about all of our services and our news. After registration, we will send you a confirmation email containing a link that you must click to complete the subscription to our newsletter (double opt-in).
You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link, which is also included in each newsletter. Your data will be deleted by us immediately after you unsubscribe. We will also delete your data immediately in the event of an incomplete registration. We reserve the right to delete the data without giving reasons and without prior or subsequent notice.
The data you have entered on our contact forms.
The data collected via our contact form or via our contact forms will only be used for processing the specific contact request received via the contact form.
After processing your request, the data collected will be deleted immediately, unless there are legal retention periods.
If we provide products or services in advance of payment, we reserve the right to obtain automatic credit information on the basis of mathematical-statistical procedures from the following company(s) in order to safeguard our legitimate interests. We receive information about the statistical probability of non-payment from the service provider named below. The credit information can contain probability values (score values), which are calculated on the basis of scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical methods. A large number of features, such as income, address data, occupation, marital status, and previous payment behaviour are used to assess the customer's future risk of non-payment. The result is expressed in the form of a payment probability (so-called score). The information thus obtained forms the basis of our decision on the establishment, execution, or termination of a contractual relationship. However, the payment methods offered do not depend on such information.
Verband der Vereine Creditreform e.V. is a consumer information agency. It operates a database in which credit information on private individuals is stored. On this basis, Verband der Vereine Creditreform e.V. issues creditworthiness information to its customers. Customers include banks, leasing companies, insurance companies, telecommunications companies, receivables management companies, mail order, wholesale, and retail companies, and other companies that supply goods or services. Within the framework of legal regulations, part of the data available in the information database is also used for the supply of other company databases, among other things for use for data brokerage purposes.
The database of Verband der Vereine Creditreform e.V. stores in particular information about the name, address, date of birth, email address if applicable, payment behavior, and shareholdings of persons. The purpose of processing the stored data is to provide information about the creditworthiness of the requested person. The legal basis for processing is Art. 6(1)(f) EU GDPR. Information on this data may only be provided thereafter if a customer can credibly demonstrate a justified interest in knowing this information. If data is transferred to countries outside the EU, this is done on the basis of the so-called "standard contractual clauses" which you can find under the following link: http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/DE/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:32001D0497&from=DE or to be sent from there. The data is stored as long as its knowledge is necessary for the fulfilment of the purpose of storage. As a rule, this knowledge is required for an initial storage period of three years. After this period has lapsed, a check is performed to determine whether storage is still necessary, otherwise the data is deleted on exactly that day. In the event of a matter being resolved, the data will be deleted exactly three years after the matter has been resolved. In accordance with § 882e German Code of Civil Procedure (ZPO), entries in the register of debtors are deleted exactly three years after the date of the registration order. Justified interests within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) EU GDPR may be: Credit decision, business initiation, shareholdings, claims, credit assessment, insurance contract, enforcement information. You have the right to obtain information from Verband der Vereine Creditreform e.V about the data stored there about your person. If the data stored about you is incorrect, you have a right to correction or deletion. If it cannot be determined immediately whether the data is incorrect or correct, you have the right to block the respective data until clarification. If your data is incomplete, you can request its completion. If you have given your consent to the processing of data stored by Verband der Vereine Creditreform e.V., you have the right to revoke this consent at any time. This revocation does not affect the legality of the processing of your data based on your consent until it is revoked, if such a revocation does take place. If you have any objections, wishes, or complaints regarding data protection, you can contact the data protection officer of Verband der Vereine Creditreform e.V. at any time. He will help you quickly and confidentially in all questions of data protection. You can also complain about the processing of your data by Verband der Vereine Creditreform e.V. to the data protection commissioner responsible for your federal state (Bundesland). The data that Verband der Vereine Creditreform e.V. has stored about you comes from publicly accessible sources, from debt collection companies, and their customers. In order to describe your creditworthiness, Verband der Vereine Creditreform e.V. calculates a score based on your data. The score integrates data on age and gender, address data and, in some cases, payment experience data. This data is included with varying weights in the score calculation. Verband der Vereine Creditreform e.V. customers use the scores as a tool for making their own credit decisions.

The EU Commission has found that an adequate level of data protection can exist in the USA if the data processing company has submitted to the US-EU Privacy Shield Agreement and the export of data to the USA has been made permissible in this way. By activating IP anonymization within the Google Analytics tracking code of this website, your IP address is made anonymous by Google Analytics before transfer. This website uses a Google Analytics tracking code that has been extended by the function gat._anonymizeIp(); in order to only allow anonymous collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking).
Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent), either as part of registration with Google (opening a Google account and acceptance of the data protection information implemented there) or, if you have not registered with Google, by explicit consent when opening our site.
On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of this website, compile reports about website activities and provide us with other services connected with website use and internet use. The IP address transferred from your browser for Google Analytics is not combined with other Google data.
Google will store the data relevant for the provision of web tracking for as long as it is necessary to fulfil the requested web service. Data is collected and stored anonymously. If there is any personal reference, the data will be deleted immediately, as long as it is not subject to any legal retention obligations. In any case, the deletion takes place after expiry of the retention obligation.
On our site we use the service of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Park, Mountain View, 94043, USA (hereafter: Google Tag Manager). Google Tag Manager offers a technical platform to execute other web services and web tracking programs via so-called "tags" and to be able to control these as a group. In this context, Google Tag Manager stores cookies on your computer and analyses your surfing behaviour (so-called "tracking"), to the extent that web tracking tools are executed via Google Tag Manager. This data sent by individual tags integrated into Google Tag Manager are compiled, stored and processed by Google Tag Manager via a uniform user interface. All integrated "tags" are separately listed again in this data protection declaration. You can find more detailed information for data protection pertaining to the tools integrated into Google Tag Manager in the corresponding section of this data protection declaration. When using our website with the activated integration of tags by Google Tag Manager, data such as your IP address and your user activities are transferred to servers of Google LLC and processed and stored outside the European Union, e.g. in the USA.
The EU Commission has found that an adequate level of data protection can exist in the USA if the data processing company has submitted to the US-EU Privacy Shield Agreement and the export of data to the USA has been made permissible in this way. This is the case for Google LLC. The web services integrated via Google Tag Manager are governed by the regulations in the corresponding section of this data protection declaration. The tracking tools used in Google Tag Manager use IP anonymisation of the source code to ensure that Google Tag Manager anonymises the IP address before transmission. Google Tag Manager is only allowed to anonymously capture IP addresses here (so-called IP masking).
