Data protection and data security while using our website are very important to us. We would therefore like to inform you about the data we collect during your visit to our website, and the purpose for which it is used.
As legislative amendments or changes to our internal company processes may make it necessary to amend this privacy statement, please read through this privacy statement regularly. This document may be reviewed periodically or updated from time to time at the Company’s discretion.
The responsible organisation is Weidmuller Limited, Klippon House, Centurion Court Office Park, Meridian East, Leicester LE19 1TP and service provider is Weidmüller Interface GmbH & Co. KG, Klingenbergstrasse 16, D-32758 Detmold (hereinafter referred to as “Weidmüller”).
Personal data is collected via this website if you voluntarily provide it to us, e.g. during a registration process, by completing forms, by sending e-mails or by uploading your application documents. We use this data for the specified purposes or for the purposes arising from the enquiry, such as the specification of your postal address for the dispatch of goods. Data is only transmitted to third parties if explicitly permitted by law or if you have consented to this within the scope of your registration or in the course of an active business relationship. You can use the general information on www.weidmuller.co.uk without disclosing your personal data.
The data processing previously described for the purpose of establishing contact is performed in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b, f) of the General Data Protection Regulation “GDPR”.
It is entirely up to you whether you provide us with this data. However, without this information we will be unable to meet your contact request. Specifying your telephone number helps us to classify your enquiry and to reply to you. Your location and postcode are used to determine your local contact partner. When you use the contact form, your personal data will not be passed on to third parties.
The identification of your e-mail address is performed using the double opt-in procedure. This means that once your data has been processed, you will receive a separate confirmation e-mail. Only after clicking on the link contained in the e-mail will you receive advertising e-mails. We will also save your IP address and the date of your registration and confirmation. The purpose of this procedure is to verify your registration and, where applicable, to be in a position to resolve any misuse of your personal data. No data is passed on to third parties. Your data is saved until you have revoked this consent. You have the right to revoke your consent to this data processing, which is based on Art. 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR, at any time and without providing reasons. In this case, we will not carry out any further processing of your personal data. You can revoke your consent by e-mail to marketing@weidmuller.co.uk or by post to Weidmuller Limited, Klippon House, Centurion Court Office Park, Meridian East, Leicester LE19 1TP. All e-newsletters also contain an unsubscribe link, which, when confirmed, serves to revoke your consent.

If you wish to order, for example, a RockStar® ModuPlug, we will ask you for the following data: first name and surname, company name, address, telephone number and e-mail address. You can also specify a title for your request, as well as your comments, requirements and suggestions.
If you wish to test, for example, an M-Print® PRO eCAD, we will ask you for your first name and surname, your country of residence, company name and e-mail address.
We usually employ the double opt-in procedure for sending e-mails, i.e. we will only send you an advertising e-mail once you have confirmed your registration via a link included in a confirmation e-mail sent for this purpose. In this way, we aim to ensure that only you yourself, as the owner of the specified e-mail address, can register for the newsletter. You must confirm your registration promptly after receiving the confirmation e-mail, otherwise your registration will be automatically deleted from our database. If you register for e-mails, we will save and use your e-mail address for our own advertising purposes until you unsubscribe. To unsubscribe, you can either send us an informal e-mail to marketing@weidmuller.co.uk or you can follow the link at the end of the advertising e-mail.
You can revoke this consent at any time by sending an e-mail to marketing@weidmuller.co.uk. If you have not given your consent or you choose to revoke it, your data will not be used in accordance with the previous paragraph. You will, of course, be able to continue using other Weidmüller services.
We also provide webinars on our website. In order to access a webinar, you will firstly need to register. The data is entered via an input screen, and is then transmitted to us and saved. No data is passed on to third parties.
Personal data is regularly collected and used only with the user’s consent. Provided we obtain consent from the relevant person for the processing of their personal data, Art. 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing personal data.
An exception is made for cases in which prior consent cannot be obtained for practical reasons and if processing of the data is permitted by law. In cases where the processing of personal data is required to fulfil a contract for which the person concerned is the contractual party, Art. 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies for processing operations required for the implementation of precontractual measures.
As far as the processing of personal data is required to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject, Art. 6 (1) (c) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If the processing is required to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override the aforementioned interest, Art. 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.
