The log file is stored for two months.
This data is processed for the purpose of presenting our web pages securely and to best effect from a technical point of view. The legal basis for processing the data here is proportionally our legitimate interest, Art. 6 Para. 1 f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). No person-related evaluations or reports are undertaken or produced.
4. Establishing contact using our contact forms
We only collect personal data pertaining to you – i.e. information that can be associated with you as an individual – if you provide us with this data yourself and enter into contact with us. This is the case if you enter your data in the input fields of the contact forms on our websites and send us inquiries.
Information that we absolutely need to process your inquiry is marked with an asterisk. You may also provide the remaining information voluntarily in order to make it easier for us to classify your inquiry.
We use your personal data only for communication with you and for processing your inquiry. The data will then be erased. The legal basis for processing the data is our legitimate interest in communicating with you at your request, Art. 6 Para. 1 f) of the GDPR.
You may at any time object to the further storage and use of your personal data collected in the course of contacting us or revoke your request to be included in the press distribution list at any time. To do this, an email to

or a letter to

6. Personalized marketing communications
Based on your prior consent, we process your personal data also in order to deliver you relevant personalized marketing communications regarding topics of interest relating to MTU products and solutions, including technical articles, case studies, white papers, news articles, webinars and videos. We provide these communications via e-mail, if you communicate to us also your telephone number for this purpose, we or our local subsidiaries in your respective area may also call you to inform you about MTU products or MTU solutions via telephone.
The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Para. 1 a) GDPR. We receive your consent particularly in the context of registering for gratuitous downloads of material on our websites or in the context of the registration for gratuitous webinars offered by third party providers for which we deliver the content.
In order to tailor these marketing communications to your interests and preferences concerning our products and solutions, we use a marketing tool to analyze data gathered by the Google Analytics cookie when you use this website, as well as other information about your interests and preferences regarding MTU products and solutions which we collect due to your download of materials on our website, your registration for webinars or when you take notice of our marketing e-mails.
The types of personal data that we collect are described in detail in the consent that we obtain from you for this purpose. The use of the marketing tool requires the transfer of these data into the United States of America. Rolls-Royce has concluded Standard Data Protection Clauses as adopted by the European Commission with the provider of the marketing tool. These serve as the legal basis for the data transfer under Article 46 (2) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
You may at any time revoke this consent via email to dataprivacy.sales@mtu-online.com – you can do this also partly, specifically with regard to marketing communications via telephone –, or by clicking on the unsubscribe links, which are provided at the bottom of each marketing mail. In case you revoke your consent, your data will promptly be deleted, and we will stop providing you the respective marketing communications. You can also object to the processing of your data for marketing purposes. We will then delete your data (except your email address and the fact of your objection, in order to take account of your objection at any time) and stop sending you marketing communications.
You may apply to our company online or by electronic means. We process your applicant data exclusively for the purpose of the application procedure and delete it, if rejected, after completion. The legal basis is Art. 26 Para. 1 Sentence 1 of the German Federal Data Protection Act. Please note that emails which sent in unencrypted form are not transmitted with access protection. We therefore strongly recommend that you send us your application documents either by encrypted e-mail or via the contact form on our career portal. Further details of the way applicant data is handled may be found in our separate data privacy notice on the career portal.

We also process your personal data outside of these websites if you contact us in writing, by telephone or by e-mail with a request or inquiry and provide us with personal data (e.g. your contact details). Furthermore, we process personal data of yours if you or your company is a business partner, customer or service provider of ours, i.e. in a contractual relationship with us, for purposes of executing this contract, or if data processing is necessary for another reason, e.g. in the context of an application in response to an invitation to tender.
Depending on the context, your data will be processed on different legal bases within the meaning of Art. 6 of the GDPR. Depending on the context, this is in particular:
1. your expression of consent pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 a) of the GDPR (e.g. when requesting our customer magazine); or
2. where the processing is necessary for fulfilling a contractual relationship with us or for implementing pre-contractual measures which occur at your request, Art. 6 Para. 1 b) of the GDPR (e.g. upon telephone request for the purpose of ordering a product); or

RRPS and other affiliated companies house central functions of the RRPS Group – e.g. Marketing & Communications, Sales, Purchasing and central admin functions such as Legal, etc. – which act on behalf of the entire group and may process your personal data within this context. The processing of personal data by these central functions is also undertaken on the basis of the aforementioned bases in law. If, for example, when carrying out procurement processes or processing contracts, affiliated companies other than RRPS must also be involved because they perform central functions within the group, personal data is exchanged between the affiliated companies involved to the extent necessary. The legal basis for this is the overriding legitimate interest of the company in organizing internal administrative procedures efficiently, Art. 6 Para. 1 f) of the GDPR.
We only pass personal data to other affiliated companies or to third parties, e.g. authorities or banks, if necessary and to the required extent within the scope of the respective business relationship or due to a legal requirement so to do.

You may object to the processing of data for reasons arising from your particular situation if such data processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests. Should we process your data in order to conduct direct advertising, you may object to this advertising or promotion at any time with future effect (right to object to processing of personal data for marketing purposes).
