We appreciate your interest in our company. The board of directors of thyssenkrupp thyssenkrupp Access Limited takes data protection very seriously. Use of the websites of thyssenkrupp Access Limited is generally possible without the provision of personal data. Should an affected person wish to use special services of our company via our website, it may however be necessary for personal data to be processed. Should the processing of personal data be necessary and should no legal basis exist for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the affected person.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address or telephone number of an affected person always takes place in accordance with the GDPR and in compliance with the country specific data protection regulations which apply to thyssenkrupp Access Limited. By means of this data protection declaration, our company wishes to inform the public of the type, scope and purposes of the personal data which is gathered, used and processed by us. Furthermore, affected persons are being informed of their rights by means of this data protection declaration.
thyssenkrupp Access Limited has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures as a responsible body for the processing, in order to ensure seamless protection of the personal data which is processed via this website as far as possible. However, Internet based data transfers generally demonstrate security risks, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, all affected persons are free to provide us with personal data via alternative channels, for example over the phone.
The data protection declaration of thyssenkrupp Access Limited is based on the definitions which were used by the European issuer of directives and regulations when passing the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration is intended to be readable and understandable both for our customers and for our business partners. In order to ensure this, we wish to firstly explain the terms which have been used.
We use the following terms in this data protection declaration amongst others:
Personal data is all information which relates to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter "affected person"). A natural person is considered identifiable if he or she can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by means of allocation to an identifier such as a name, reference number, location data, online profile, or one or more special characteristics, such as the expression of the physical, physiological, genetics, psychic, economic, cultural or social identity of this natural person.
An affected person is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the body responsible for the processing.
Processing is any process which takes place with or without the assistance of automated procedures or any such process order in connection with personal data, such as gathering, recording, organisation, filing, saving, adjustment or alteration, reading, retrieval, use, disclosure by means of transfer, distribution or other form of provision, comparison or connection, restriction, deletion or destruction.
Processing restriction is the marking of saved personal data with the purpose of restricting its processing in the future.
Profiling is any type of automated processing of personal data which leads to this personal data being used in order to evaluate, analyse or forecast specific personal aspects which relate to a natural person, in particular relating to work performance, economic position, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, place of residence or changes to the place of residence of this natural person.
Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a way where personal data can no longer be assigned to a specific affected person without consulting additional information, should this additional information be stored separately and be subject to technical and organisational measures which ensure that the personal data cannot be assigned to an identified or identifiable natural person.
The responsible body or the body responsible for the processing is the natural or legal person, authority, institution or other body which takes a decision alone or together with others concerning the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Should the purposes and means of this processing be prescribed under EU law or the laws of the Member States, the responsible body and the specific criteria of its appointment can be determined under EU law or the laws of the Member States.
a recipient is a natural or legal person, authority, institution or other body to whom personal data is disclosed, regardless of whether this is a third party or not. Authorities which may receive personal data in the course of a specific investigation order under EU law or in accordance with the laws of the Member States are not however considered to be recipients.
A third party is a natural or legal person, authority, institution or other body apart from the affected person, the responsible body, the order processor and the persons who are authorised under the direct competence of the responsible body or order processor to process the personal data.
Consent is any notification of agreement issued voluntarily by the affected person for the specific case in an informed manner without any misunderstandings in the form of a declaration or other clear action of a confirming nature, by means of which the affected person states that he or she agrees to the processing of the personal data relating to him or her.

Mr Terry Angell
All affected persons can contact our data protection officer directly at any time with any queries or concerns relating to data protection.
At thyssenkrupp Access Limited and the thyssenkrupp group, only those areas which require access to data in order to provide the services of thyssenkrupp Access Limited have this entitlement.
Data of customers and visitors is only passed on to subcontractors in order for these to be able to set up and install the products for the user. Our subcontractors are contractually obliged to comply with the requirements under data protection laws and to maintain confidentiality.
Data of interested persons, customers and users will be passed on to other service providers who support thyssenkrupp Access Limited, for example in the following categories:
These service providers are contractually obliged to comply with the requirements under data protection laws and to maintain confidentiality.
Under certain circumstances, data will be passed on to information agencies such as Schufa or Boniversum. More precise information concerning the data processing by the information agencies can be found in their data protection notices.
The websites of thyssenkrupp Access Limited use cookies. Cookies are text files which are deposited on a computer system and saved by an Internet browser.
Numerous websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a clear identifier of the cookie. It is formed of a letter sequence, by means of which websites and servers can be assigned to the concrete Internet browser in which the cookie was saved. The enables the websites and servers which are being visited to differentiate between the individual browser of the affected person and other Internet browsers which contain different cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognised again and identified via the clear cookie ID.
By means of the use of cookies, thyssenkrupp Access Limited can provide the users of this website with services which are more user friendly and which would not be possible without the setting of cookies.
By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimised for the user. As previously explained, cookies enable us to recognise the users of our website again. The purpose of this recognition is to make the use of our website easier for our users. The user of an website which uses cookies is not for example required to enter his or her login data again each time he or she visits the website, as this is carried out by the website and the cookie saved on the computer system of the user. A further example is the cookie of a shopping basket in an online shop. The online shop records the items which a customer has placed in the virtual shopping basket via a cookie.
The affected person can prevent the setting of cookies via our website at any time by setting the used Internet browser accordingly and is therefore permanently objecting to the setting of cookies. In addition, cookies which have already been set can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all current Internet browsers. Should the affected person de-activate the setting of cookies in the used Internet browser, in certain cases not all functions of our website will be fully usable.
The website of thyssenkrupp Access Limited records a list of general data and information each time the website is visited by an affected person or an automated system. This general data and information is saved in the logfiles of the server. The following can be recorded:
(1) the browser types used and the versions, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system retrieves out website (so-called referrer), (4) the sub websites which are managed by an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) IP address, (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information which serves the purpose of defending against risks in case of attacks against our IT systems.
When using this general data and information, thyssenkrupp Access Limited does not trace back the affected person. Rather this information is required in order to:
(1) correctly deliver the content of our website, (2) optimise the content of our website and the advertising for this, (3) ensure the continued functionality of our IT systems and the technology of our website and (4) provide prosecution authorities with the necessary information for criminal proceedings in case of a cyber attack. This data which is gathered anonymously is therefore used statistically by thyssenkrupp Access Limited on the one hand and also with the objective of increasing data protection and data security at our company, in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data which is processed by us. The anonymous data of the server logfiles is saved separately from all personal data provided by an affected person.
The affected person has the option of registering on the website of the responsible body for the processing with the provision of personal data. The respective entry mask which is used for the registration states which personal data is transferred to the body responsible for the processing during this process. The personal data entered by the affected person is only gathered and saved for internal use by the body responsible for the processing and for its own purposes. The body responsible for the processing can have the data passed on to one or more order processors, for example a parcel company, which also only used the personal data internally in the way attributed to the body responsible for the processing.
By means of registration on the website of the body responsible for the processing, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) of the affected person, the date and time of the registration will be saved. The saving of this data takes place on the understanding that only in this way can the misuse of our services be avoided and the data be used to clarify criminal acts which have been committed where necessary. To this extent, the saving of this data is necessary for protection of the body responsible for the processing. A passing on of this data to third parties doers not generally take place, unless a statutory obligation to pass the data on exists or if this takes place in the course of criminal prosecution.
The registration of the affected person with the voluntary provision of personal data enables the body responsible for the processing to provide the affected person with content or services which can only be offered to registered users due to their nature. Registered persons have the option of altering the personal data provided during the registration at any time or to have it fully deleted from the data inventory of the body responsible for the processing.
The body responsible for the processing will issue all affected persons with information on request at any time concerning what personal data it saves in relation to the affected person. Furthermore, the body responsible for the processing will correct or delete personal data following a request by or on the instructions of the affected person, unless statutory retention obligations prevent this. The affected person can contact the data protection officer named in this data protection declaration and all of the employees of the body responsible for the processing in this respect.
On the internet site of thyssenkrupp Access Limited, the users have the option of subscribing to our company newsletter. The entry mask used during this process states which personal data is transferred to the body responsible for the processing when ordering the newsletter.
thyssenkrupp Access Limited informs its customers and business partners at regular intervals of products and services of the company through the newsletter. The newsletter of our company can generally only be received by the affected person if (1) he or she owns a valid email address and (2) he or she registers for the sending of the newsletter. For legal reasons, a confirmation email will be sent to the email address entered by an affected person for the first time for the sending of the newsletter (double opt in procedure). This confirmation email allows us to check whether the owner of the email address as the affected person has authorised the receipt of the newsletter.
When registering for the newsletter, we also save the IP address of the computer system used by the affected person at the time of registration which is issued by the Internet service provider (ISP), as well as the date and time of the registration. The gathering of this data is necessary in order to be trace the (possible) misuse of the email address of an affected person in the future and therefore legally covers the body responsible for the processing.
The personal data gathered in the course of the registration for the newsletter will only be used in order to send our newsletter. Furthermore, subscribers to the newsletter can be informed by email, should this be necessary in order to operate the newsletter service or should registration be necessary in this respect, which may be so in the case of changes to the newsletter service or in case of technical alterations. The personal data which is gathered within the framework of the newsletter service is not passed on to third parties. The subscription to our newsletter can be terminated by the affected person at any time. The consent to the saving of personal data which the affected person issued to us for the sending of the newsletter can be revoked at any time. For the purpose of revocation of the consent, a corresponding link can be found in each newsletter. In addition, there is the option of also de-registering from the sending of the newsletter directly on the website of the body responsible for the processing or to notify the body responsible for the processing of such a decision via alternative means.
The newsletters of thyssenkrupp Access Limited contain so-called number pixels. A number pixel is a miniature graphic which is included in such emails which are sent in HTML format, in order to enable the saving any analysis of the logfile. By means of this, a statistical evaluation of the success or lack of success of online marketing campaigns can be carried out. On the basis of the incorporated number pixel, thyssenkrupp Access Limited can recognise whether and when an email was opened by an affected person and what links which are contained in the email were clicked on by the affected person.
Such personal data which is gathered via the number pixels contained in the newsletters is saved an evaluated by the body responsible for the processing, in order to optimise the sending of the newsletter and to adjust the content of future letters to the interests of the affected person in an even better way. This personal data is not passed on to any third parties. Affected persons have the right at all times to revoke the separate declaration of consent which was issued via the double opt in procedure. Following the revocation, this personal data will be deleted by the body responsible for the processing. De-registering for the receipt of the newsletter will be automatically considered by thyssenkrupp Access Limited to be a revocation.

The body responsible for the processing has integrated the Google+ button into this website as a component. Google+ is a social network. A social network is a social meeting space, an online community operated on the Internet which generally enables users to communicate between themselves and to interact in the virtual room. A social network can be used to exchange opinions and experiences or enables the Internet community to make personal or commercial information available. Google+ enables the users of the social network to create private profiles, upload photos and create a network of friendships amongst others.
By means of each instance of accessing one of the individual pages of this website which is operated by the body responsible for the processing and in which a Google+ button is integrated, the Internet browser on the IT system of the affected person will automatically request via the respective Google+ button that an image of the corresponding Google+ button be downloaded by Google. Within the framework of this technical procedure, Google is informed which concrete subpage of our website is being visited by the affected person. Further information concerning Google+ can be obtained at https://developers.google.com/+/.
Should the affected person be logged in to Google+ at the same, each time our website is accessed by the affected person and for the entire duration of the respective visit, Google can recognise which concrete subpage of our website is being visited by the affected person. This information is collected by the Google+ button and assigned to the respective Google+ account of the affected person.
Should the affected person click on one of the Google+ buttons integrated into our website and submit a Google+1 recommendation, Google assigns this information to the personal Google+ user account of the affected person and saves this personal data. Google saves the Google+1 recommendation of the affected person and makes this publicly accessible in accordance with the terms and conditions which have been agreed with the affected person in this respect. A Google+ recommendation carried out by the affected person on this website will then be saved and processed together with other personal data, such as the name of the Google+1 account used by the affected person and the photo stored in this in other Google services, such as the search engine results of the Google search engine, the Google account of the affected person or at other locations, such as on websites or in connection with adverts. Furthermore, Google is in the position of being able to connect the visit to this website with other personal data saved by Google. Google also records this personal information with the objective of improving or optimising the various services of Google.
Via the Google+ button, Google is then informed that the affected person has visited our website, should the affected person be logged into Google+ at the same time that he or she accessed our website. This takes place regardless of whether the affected person clicks the Google+ button or not.
Should the affected person not wish for this information to be transferred to Google, this can be prevented by logging out of the Google+ account prior to accessing our website.

The body responsible for the processing has integrated Google AdWords into this website. Google AdWords is an Internet advertising service, which permits advertisers to display adverts in the search engine results of Google and in the Google advertising network. Google AdWords enables an advertiser to set certain key words in advance, by means of which an advert is only then shown in the search engine results of Google if the user accesses a search result in the search engine which is relevant to the key word. In the Google advertising network, the adverts are distributed amongst relevant websites by means of an automatic algorithm and in compliance with the key words which have been set in advance.
The operating company of the services of Google AdWords is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.
The purpose of Google AdWords is the promotion of our website by the inclusion of advertising on the websites which is tailored to interests and in the search engine results of the Google search engine, as well as the inclusion of third party advertising on our website.
Should an affected person come across our website via a Google advert, a so-called conversion cookie is set on the IT system of the affected person by Google. The nature of cookies is explained above. A conversion cookie ceases to be valid after thirty days and is not used to identify the affected person. Provided that the cookie has not yet expired, the conversion cookie shows whether certain subpages, such as the shopping basket of an online shop system were accessed on our website. By means of the conversion cookie, both ourselves and Google can see whether an affected person who came across our website via an AdWords advert generated a sale, i.e. purchased an item or terminated the transaction.
The data and information which is generated through the use of the conversion cookie is used by Google in order to compile visit statistics for our Internet page. These visit statistics are then used by us in order to calculate the total number of users who were referred to us by AdWords adverts, i.e. the success or lack of success of the respective AdWords advert and in order to optimise our AdWords adverts in the future. Neither our company nor other advertising customers of Google receive information from Google which allows the affected person to be identified.
The affected person can prevent the setting of cookies via our website as stated above at any time by setting the used Internet browser accordingly and is therefore permanently objecting to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser which is used would also prevent Google being able to set a conversion cookie on the IT system of the affected person. In addition, cookies which have already been set by Google AdWords can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs.
