Thank you for your interest in the companies of the Diehl Group. We take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We process your data in accordance with the applicable legislation on the protection of personal data, in particular the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the country-specific implementation laws applicable to us. In this privacy policy, we shall inform you comprehensively about the processing of your personal data by the Diehl Group and of the rights granted to you. Personal data is the information that enables identification of a natural person. In particular, this includes name, date of birth, address, telephone number, email address and IP address. Data is considered anonymous if no personal reference can be made to a user. Your rights as a data subject First, we would like to inform you about your rights as a data subject. These rights are standardized in Articles 15 to 22 of the GDPR. They include: Right to information (Article 15 of the GDPR), Right to erasure (Article 17 of the GDPR), Right to rectification (Article 16 of the GDPR), Right to data portability (Article 20 of the GDPR), Right to restriction of data processing (Article 18 of the GDPR), Right to object to data processing (Article 21 of the GDPR). In order to assert these rights, please contact: datenschutz@diehl.com. The same applies if you have any questions about data processing at our company. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Right to object Please note the following in conjunction with your right to object: In the event that we process your data in order to protect legitimate interests, you can object to this processing at any time for reasons relating to your particular situation. We shall then no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling reasons for processing warranting protection that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims. You may object free of charge and in any form, preferably by contacting: datenschutz@diehl.com Purposes and legal bases for data processing The processing of your personal data complies with the provisions of the GDPR and all other applicable data protection provisions. The legal bases for data processing are derived in particular from Article 6 GDPR. Except as specifically described elsewhere in this policy, we use your data exclusively to optimize our website, for example to improve the availability of the most visited pages or to improve the display on mobile devices. For details, please refer to the section on “Cookies”. There shall be no processing of special categories of personal data within the meaning of Article 9(1) GDPR. Forwarding to third parties We will only pass your data on to third parties within the scope of the statutory provisions or with the appropriate consent. Otherwise, no data will be passed on to third parties unless we are obliged to do so due to mandatory legal requirements (forwarding to external bodies such as supervisory authorities or law enforcement authorities). Recipients of data / Categories of recipients Within the Diehl Group, we ensure that the only persons to receive your data are those that need it in order to fulfill their contractual and legal obligations. If another company acquires our company, business, or assets, we will also share your information with that company. In many cases, service providers support our specialist departments in fulfilling their tasks. We share your IP address and the data mentioned in section “contact form” below with service providers that, among other things, help us administer our website and provide technical support. Relevant data protection contracts have been concluded with all service providers. Transfer to third countries We do not transmit or intend to transmit any data to third countries (outside the European Union and the European Economic Area) Storage period for data We store your data as long as it is needed for the respective processing purpose. Please note that there are various retention periods requiring that data shall continue to be stored. In particular, this refers to commercial or fiscal retention obligations (for example arising from the German Commercial Code or the General Fiscal Law). If there are no further retention obligations, the data will be routinely deleted after it has fulfilled its purpose. In addition, we may retain data if you have given us your permission to do so, or if legal disputes arise, and we use evidence within the statutory limitation periods, which may be up to thirty years; the regular limitation period is three years. Secure transfer of your data We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to help best protect the data stored by us against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized persons. Security levels are continuously reviewed in cooperation with security experts and adapted to new security standards. In the event of a suspected data security breach, we may notify you electronically, in writing, or by telephone, if we are permitted to do so by applicable law. Data that is transferred to and from our website is encrypted. We use HTTPS as a transfer protocol for our website, using current encryption protocols. It is also possible to use alternative communication channels (for example by post). Obligation to provide data Various personal data is necessary in order to establish, implement and terminate a contract and to fulfill associated contractual and legal obligations. The same applies to the use of our website and the various functions it provides. In certain cases, data must also be collected or made available due to legal provisions. Please note that it is will not be possible to process your request or execute the underlying contractual obligation without providing this information. Categories, sources and origin of data The data we process is determined by the context: this depends upon whether you send an inquiry via our contact form, send us an application or submit a complaint, for example. Please note that we may also provide information for specific processing situations separately in the appropriate places where applicable, for example when uploading application documents or when making a contact inquiry. When visiting our website, we collect and process the following data: Details of the website from which you are visiting us Web browser and operating system used The IP address assigned by your Internet service provider Requested files, amount of data transferred, downloads / file export Details of the web pages you visit with us, including date and time Resolution of your screen and device type For reasons of technical security (in particular to defend against attempted hacking of our web server), this data is stored in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Immediately after being collected, data is anonymized by shortening the IP address, so that there is no reference to the user. Contact form / Contact by email (Article 6(1)(a),(b) GDPR) There is a contact form available on our website that can be used to contact us electronically. If you write to us via the contact form, we will process the data you provide to contact you and answer your questions and requests. We collect and process the following data in the course of a contact inquiry: Surname, first name Contact details Title Details of requests and interests In doing so, we respect the principle of data minimization and data avoidance by requiring you to provide only the data we absolutely need to contact you. These are your email address and the message field itself. In addition, your IP address shall be processed for reasons of technical necessity as well as legal protection. All other data is optional and may be provided voluntarily (e.g., to provide a more personalized answer to your question). If you contact us by email, we will process the personal data provided in the email solely for the purpose of dealing with your request. If you do not use the forms provided to get in contact, there will be no further data collection.

Cookies (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR / Article 6(1)(a) GDPR with consent) Our website uses “cookies” in several places. They are used to make our service more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files saved by your browser and stored on your computer (locally on your hard drive). These cookies enable us to analyze how users use our website. We can thus design the website content according to visitors’ needs. Cookies also allow us to measure the effectiveness of specific advertisements and to place them according to users’ thematic interests, for example. Most cookies we use are “session cookies”. These are deleted automatically after your visit. Persistent cookies are automatically deleted from your computer once their period of validity (usually six months) is reached or you delete them yourself before the end of this period of validity. Most web browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you can usually change your browser’s settings. Please note: If you deactivate cookies, you may not be able to use all of the functions of our website. Google Analytics Processed Data Our website uses the tracking tool Google Analytics provided by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). If you are based in the European Economic Area or Switzerland, the controller for your data—collected through this procedure—is Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). Google Analytics uses cookies and JavaScript functions to document, save and systematically assess interactions of visitors to our website. The following data is collected: anonymized IP address (only 3 bytes), Google ID of the accessed website, last viewed website, length of stay on our website and frequency of access to websites. Your data will be transferred to and processed by Google for Google’s own purposes. If you have a Google account, Google may merge your account data with the data collected from Google Analytics’ tracking. Your data will not be transmitted to third countries. We concluded a processing agreement with Google on the basis of the EU General Data Protection Regulation. Processing Purpose We use this tool to collect information about the use of our website and to design and optimize our website in a need-based manner. This data is used to create cross-website usage profiles.

You may withdraw your consent at any time by clicking here. Withdrawal only applies to your currently-used device and browser. Please repeat this process on all of your devices if necessary.

Google offers this add-on for all customary browser versions. Data Storage Period The data collected this way will be erased when it is no longer necessary for our purposes. In our case, this applies after 24 months. Analysis by WiredMinds Our website uses counting pixel technology provided by WiredMinds GmbH (www.wiredminds.de) to analyze visitor behavior. In connection with this, the IP address of the visitor is processed. The processing occurs only for the purpose of collecting company based information such as company name, for example. IP addresses of natural persons are excluded from any further processing by means of a whitelist. An IP address is not stored in LeadLab under any circumstances. While processing data, it is our outmost interest to protect the rights of natural persons. Our interest in processing data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. At no time is it possible to draw conclusions from the collected data on an identifiable person. WiredMinds GmbH uses this information to create anonymized usage profiles of the visit behavior on our website. Data obtained during this process is not used to personally identify visitors of our website. Opt-Out CloudFlare Our website uses the Content Delivery Network provided by Cloudflare Inc. (101 Townsend St San Francisco, CA 94107, USA). Technically, the connection from your device to our website is thereby routed via Cloudflare’s network. This enables Cloudflare to, e.g., detect attacks on our website. However, our website’s TLS encryption prevents Cloudflare from accessing data entered by you. When you access our website, Cloudflare cookies will be placed on your device. Cloudflare collects statistical data on your visit to our website. Accessed data includes: the name of the accessed website and files, time and date of access, amount of data transferred, successful access notification and your browser type and version, operating system, referrer URL (last-visited page), IP address and requesting provider. Cloudflare uses this log data for statistical assessments for the operation, security and optimization of our offer (e.g., to detect and defend against massive abusive access through denial of service (DoS) or distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS) and to identify multiple legitimate access attempts by various devices using the same IP address). Please also see Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy here. We use this service to ensure our website’s availability, protect us against attacks and optimize load times. We use this tool on the basis of our legitimate interest in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation. Your data will be transferred to be assessed by Cloudflare and, therefore, to a third country. Twitter Syndication On our website you will find functions of the provider Twitter (Twitter Inc. 1355 Market Street Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103). By the use of Twitter and the “Re-Tweet” function, the websites you visit will be connected with your Twitter account and announced to other users. This also includes transmission of data to Twitter. If you are logged in to Twitter, Twitter may be able to assign the visit to your Twitter account at this point. However, data transmission to Twitter only takes place when you click on the Twitter button or the Twitter messages. A click on the button or the Twitter messages means that you consent to the transfer of data to Twitter. As the provider of the website, we would like to point out, that we have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted to Twitter and their use by Twitter. Further information can be found in the privacy policy of Twitter: http://twitter.com/privacy.

In order for the maps to be displayed correctly, technically necessary data must be transmitted to Google and must be processed by them. If you are logged in at Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you don’t want to be associated with your profile on Google, you have to log out before activating the button.
