Every time you visit our website https://www.boellhoff.com/at-en and https://eshop.boellhoff.at/en, the browser used on your device automatically sends information and data to the server of our website. This information and data is temporarily stored in a so-called log file.
On the website https://www.boellhoff.com/at-en and in the Böllhoff online eShop at https://eshop.boellhoff.at/en, technically unnecessary cookies are also used within the scope of google Analytics. For this purpose, reference is made to XI. of this data protection declaration (Google Analytics), which determine an analysis of the surfing behaviour of the users.
In order to be able to order goods in the Böllhoff eShop, a previous registration by you is necessary. Registration is also used for access control.
A guest order is not possible.
Mandatory information is provided upon registration. Your sales tax identification number will also be requested, as the Böllhoff eShop is only aimed at entrepreneurs and merchants.
The input is voluntary, without complete input of the mandatory data the registration and activation of the customer account can not take place.
We need the mandatory data in order to process your order.
The indication of your telephone number, fax number is voluntary. It serves a fast establishment of contact with questions in connection with the completion of your order. Your e-mail address is also your username.
When ordering goods in the Böllhoff eshop, we process your inventory data (name, address, VAT ID) as well as contact data (e-mail address, contact person) and your contract data (type and quantity of ordered goods, payment information) as well as content data when you send us information about your order.
The legal basis for processing your customer data to fulfil the contract concluded via the Böllhoff eShop is Art. 6 Para. 1 S.1 lit. b GDPR.
Legal basis for the registration and the exclusion of a guest order possibility is Art. 6 Abs. 1 S.1 lit. f GDPR.
The registration of the customer serves to ensure that only entrepreneurs or merchants and no consumers can order goods in the Böllhoff eShop. The Böllhoff eShop is a B2B shop that does not sell to consumers. Access control takes place in order to exclude orders from consumers to whom the Böllhoff eShop does not address.
The registration enables the prior verification of the specified VAT identification number and only after a positive verification is the customer account activated.
Since the data provided during registration is also required in the context of an order for contract processing, with the exception of the sales tax identification number, no higher-value interests of the customer worthy of protection are apparent that speak against prior registration. In addition, the customer has the option of deleting the customer account created during registration at any time. The registration by the customer is voluntary, so that a higher-quality interest worthy of protection of the customer voluntarily submitting his data is not evident.
The purpose of data processing is on the one hand to ensure access control to the Böllhoff eShop and on the other hand to contractually process the customer's orders.
Due to legal, in particular tax regulations, we are obliged to store your address, payment and order data for a period of ten years. However, we will limit the processing of your order data after 24 months (expiry of the warranty period + 1 month), i.e. your data will only be used to comply with legal obligations, unless you have given us your consent to permanently store your order data in your customer account.
The legal basis for the limited processing of your personal data is the fulfilment of statutory archiving and storage obligations under tax and commercial law, Art. 6 Para. 1 S.1 lit. c GDPR. According to this standard, processing to fulfil a legal obligation to which the person responsible is subject is permissible - this includes the tax law obligations to retain data. Processing is then limited to this limited purpose and, in accordance with the legal concept of Art. 18 GDPR and Art. 25 GDPR (data minimisation), this data is removed from the operational system and stored on another drive and access to the data is limited to a few persons who have received clear instructions as to when access is possible.
If you have registered, we store your registration data, also information about the method of payment, but not your order data (see above) until you finally delete your access. You can delete your customer account at any time. Furthermore, we store the voluntary data provided by you for the duration of your use of your account, unless you delete it beforehand. You can manage and change all information in the protected customer area.
If you still have legal storage obligations in the event of deletion or if the warranty period for the goods ordered by you has not yet expired, your data will initially be processed to a limited extent as soon as your customer account is deleted (see above).
if you have used their contact form (at https://www.boellhoff.com/at-en) or have sent an e-mail to them.
if you have used their contact form (at https://eshop.boellhof.at/en) or have sent an e-mail to them.
Both the websites https://www.boellhoff.com/at-en and https://eshop.boellhoff.at/en use Google Analytics with the extension "_anonymizeIp".
Böllhoff provides free technical CAD data or other files (technical data sheets) for download on the website https://eshop.boellhoff.at/en. The download is only possible for registered users and only for users who are entrepreneurs or merchants. A download by consumers is excluded.
There are no further obligations associated with registration. It is only a prerequisite for downloading. Registration does not imply any obligation to order goods from the Böllhoff eShop. The user can therefore register solely for the purpose of downloading CAD data free of charge.
This service provider uses the data and any other data available to it to determine an appropriate assessment of your creditworthiness for the respective order on the basis of mathematical-statistical procedures.
The statistical result about the possibility of non-payment is used by the responsible person alone and exclusively for the decision about the execution of the order.
In the event of a credit risk (name, address, e-mail address, details of the company and, if applicable, contract and receivables data), we also use the company mentioned and, if applicable, other cooperating credit agencies for the purpose of credit assessment and for checking the deliverability of the address given and for debt collection processing.
The purpose of data processing and data transmission to the service provider is to protect against non-payment on the basis of Böllhoff's advance payment on account at the time of purchase.
The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit b and f GDPR. Transmissions on the basis of Art 6 I f GDPR may only take place if this is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company and does not outweigh the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require the protection of personal data.
Our legitimate interest lies in the avoidance of non-payment in advance with the delivery of goods.
Avoiding a financial risk of default is a justified interest if the customer himself demands advance payment from Böllhoff.
The credit query and its result will be deleted after release or rejection of the order, subject to legal retention periods.
You can object to a credit check and the transmission of your data to the above-mentioned service provider at any time. Please contact the responsible person listed under I. for further information.
Böllhoff will not transmit any data to the above-mentioned financial service provider after your objection.
However, the respective Böllhoff company reserves the right to refuse delivery in this case.
Due to future changes and extensions of our online offer or due to changed legal or official requirements, a change of this data protection declaration may become necessary. You can find the current data protection declaration at https://www.boellhoff.com/at-en or https://eshop.boellhoff.at/en.
