2. Use of cookies

In addition to the data listed above, we use technical tools for various functions when you use our website, in particular cookies, which may be stored on your device. When you access our website and at any time later, you have the choice of whether to allow cookies to be set in general or which individual additional functions you would like to select. You can make changes in your browser settings or via our Consent Manager, which you can access via "Cookie Settings" in the footer at the very bottom of our website. Below, we start by describing cookies from a technical point of view, before going into more detail about your individual choices by describing technically necessary cookies and cookies that you can optionally select or deselect.

 

Cookies are text files or information in a database that are stored on your hard drive and assigned to the browser you are using to provide the website that creates the cookie with certain information. Cookies cannot run programs or infect your computer with viruses, but are primarily used to make the website faster and more user-friendly and to recognise returning visitors. This website uses the following types of cookies – how they work and the legal basis is set out below: 

  • Transient Cookies: These cookies, in particular session cookies, are automatically deleted when the browser is closed or when you log out. They contain a session ID. This means that various requests from your browser can be assigned to the same session and we can recognise your computer when you return to our website.
  • Persistent Cookies: These cookies are automatically deleted after a predefined period of time, which varies depending on the cookie. You can see the cookies that are set and the times they expire at any time in the settings of your browser and delete the cookies manually.
  • Other technologies: These functions are not based on cookies, but on similar technical mechanisms, such as Flash cookies, HTML5 objects or analysis of your browser settings. The result is similarly that we can use the techniques described below. You can of course consent or object to such technical mechanisms as well. 

 

We use technically necessary cookies, firstly, to display the website. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest). The technical structure of the website requires us to use techniques, in particular cookies. Without these techniques, our website cannot be (entirely correctly) displayed or it would not be possible to provide the support functions, or they are necessary our website to function effectively. These are transient cookies that are deleted after the end of your website visit, at the latest when you close your browser. You cannot opt out of these cookies if you want to use our website. See the Consent Manager in the footer at the very bottom of our website for details of the specific cookies. You can, however, of course configure your browser settings to your preference and reject these kinds of technically necessary cookies as well. Please note that you will then not be able to use our website or only with limitations. 

 

Otherwise, Article 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent) is the legal basis for using cookies, which you can select when you first visits our website and also on each subsequent visit, using the Cookie Consent Manager, which you can access via "Cookie settings" in the footer at the very bottom of our website. The functions are only activated if you consent and may be used in particular so that we can analyse and improve visits to our website, to make it easier for you to use it via different browsers or devices, to recognise you when you visit the website or to deliver advertising, potentially also to personalise advertising to match interests, to measure the effectiveness of ads or to display interest-based advertising. 

 

Storing information about a device that belongs to you by setting cookies and accessing such information stored on such a device by reading the cookies is only allowed if you give us consent for such purposes, in accordance with Section 25(1) sentence 1 of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG). In this case, according to Section 25(1) sentence 2 of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG), the relevant requirements under GDPR, as already described, apply.

 

You may withdraw your consent, but this does not affect the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal.

 

You can indicate specifically whether you consent to all cookies, only consent to certain types of cookie or do not consent to any cookies. Your consent is optional. You can refuse to consent without giving any reasons and without risk of any disadvantage as a result. You can also withdraw such consent at any time with effect for the future in our Cookie Consent Manager, without risk of any disadvantage as a result. However, please note that you may not be able to make full use of all the features of this website if you do not give your consent or if you withdraw your consent.
 

We also provide you with more information about the use of cookies in the sections below, including where cookies are used, and via the "Cookie Settings" in the footer at the very bottom of our website.

 

3. Contact forms on our website 

When you contact us by email or via a contact form, we store and process the personal data you provide to the extent necessary to fulfil the applicable purpose of your request or the contact form, in particular to respond to your request.

 

For example, we use our general our dealer contact form (Dealer Locator), which gives you the option of sending your enquiry directly to the dealer of your choice; or our Intercompany contact form, which – using contact forms on other websites in markets outside Germany – makes it possible to send your message to branches in the relevant target country.

 

Mandatory information is indicated on each form and is only information that is required to fulfil the relevant purpose. You can also optionally provide us with further data.

 

We erase (delete) the data that is collected in this regard: after the time limits for the term of the contract, if the enquiry is linked to a contract; otherwise, after the storage is no longer necessary; or, if statutory retention obligations apply, we restrict processing.

 

The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, (legitimate interest).

 

 

4. Used machines

Please see the above points regarding contact forms, which apply generally to the used machines contact form.

 

Data is only processes to the extent necessary to fulfil the relevant purpose.

 

You can have your used machine valued using the used machines contact form. In addition to technical data about your used machine, it is also necessary to enter personal data so that we can provide you with a specific assessment by one of our employees of the used machine you want to sell.

 

The assessed value is only indicative (plus statutory VAT). The actual purchase value must be identified specifically by a used machinery expert and depends on the condition, add-on parts and the market.

 

Mandatory details are the details about the machine that are required to value the machine as well as name, company name, phone number and email address.

 

The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR for steps prior to entering into a contract; alternatively, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (our legitimate interest).

5.2 Original Spare Parts webshop for companies

If you want to place an order on our BOMAG Original Spare Parts Webshop at parts.bomag.com, to enter into the contract, it is necessary for you to provide your personal data, which we require for the purpose of processing your order. Mandatory information required for processing contracts is indicated specifically; other details are optional. For payment, you may provide your payment details to our payment service provider or we pass on your payment details to our main bank. These third parties are each independently responsible for processing the payment.

 

The legal basis in this case is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of a contract).

 

We use our own web server and IT system to process your order. The delivery address you provide is sent to our shipping service provider/carrier for the purpose of delivering the order. Otherwise, personal data is not disclosed to any third party.

 

The BOMAG Original Spare Parts Webshop is aimed solely at companies and legal entities.

 

Electronic registration is therefore required before using it. On registration, we create a customer account. You register electronically on the registration page we provide. The fields marked as mandatory must be completed so that we can check your registration request, in particular to verify whether you as the applicant are actually a company or a legal entity.

 

When you create an account, the data you provide is stored, subject to withdrawal of consent. You can delete all other data, including your user account, at any time in the customer area.

 

Mandatory details are: Company name/name of the legal entity, contact person and their phone number, email address, invoice address and, if applicable, different delivery address, VAT ID, and the password you want for your future customer account.

 

We use the double opt-in procedure for registration. This means that, after registering, we will send an email to the email address you have provided, where we ask you to confirm your registration request and to check the accuracy of the data you have provided. If you do not confirm your registration request within 7 days, your login data is deleted.

 

If you confirm your registration request, we record and save the date and time of confirmation of the registration request.

 

After we have received your confirmation, we check whether you are actually a company or a legal entity and carry out a credit check, as we finance the delivery of the parts you subsequently order via our webshop. For the credit check, we obtain a credit report from Creditreform Koblenz Dr. Rödl & Brodmerkel KG, Rizzastr. 49, 56068 Koblenz, Germany. We provide your company name and registered business address for this purpose. We subsequently view and assess the report. There is no automated decision-making for this purpose.

 

For applicable information about data processing in accordance with Article 14 GDPR, which is carried out by the credit agency, Creditreform Koblenz Dr. Rödl & Brodmerkel KG, please go to www.creditreform-koblenz.de. Otherwise, the data is not disclosed. 

 

You can object to the registration check being continued and to data being sent to the credit agency at any time. However, it is then not possible to complete registration successfully or place future orders via our webshop.

 

The legal basis in this case is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of a contract), as well as our legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

 

We may also process the data you provide to inform you about other interesting products from our portfolio or to send you emails with technical information.

 

We are required under commercial and tax law to store your address, payment and order data for a period of ten years. However, we restrict processing after three years. I.e. from this time onwards your data is only used to comply with legal obligations.

7. Analytics 

 

7.1 Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, which is a web tracking service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, (Google). The purpose for which we use the tool is to make it possible to analyse your user interactions on websites and to improve our website via the statistics and reports obtained, and to make it more interesting for you as a user.

 

We primarily collect interactions between you as a website user and our website using cookies, device/browser data, IP addresses and website activity. Google Analytics also collects your IP addresses to ensure the security of the service and to provide us, as the website operator, with information about the country, region or location from which the relevant user originates (IP geolocation). For your protection, however, we use the IP masking anonymisation function, which means that Google truncates the IP addresses by the last octet within the EU/EEA.

 

Google operates as a data processor on our behalf and we have concluded a corresponding processor agreement with Google in accordance with Article 28 GDPR. Processors only process your data in accordance with the legal requirements and with instructions from us and only to perform the processor agreement.

 

Information generated by the cookie and IP addresses that are normally truncated, relating to your use of this website, are normally sent to a Google server in the USA and processed there. For these cases, Google states that it has set itself a benchmark equivalent to the former EU-US Privacy Shield and has explained that it complies with applicable data protection laws when transferring data internationally. We have also agreed standard contractual clauses with Google pursuant to Article 46(2)(c) GDPR, the purpose of which is to ensure compliance with an adequate level of data protection, in the third country.

 

Since Google uses cookies and also processes your personal data in the USA, your personal data is only processed in this way if you have given us your optional consent for such processing in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG) in conjunction with Article 49(1)(a) GDPR. Before giving your consent pursuant to Article 49(1)(a) GDPR, please note in particular that, in the absence of an adequacy decision and suitable guarantees, there may not be an adequate level of data protection in the USA, as data protection laws do not comply with the requirements of GDPR. In particular, data subjects' rights may not be enforced and, based on the CLOUD Act, US authorities may have access both to group companies based in the USA and outside the USA, as long as they belong to a US group.

 

The legal basis for collection and further processing of the information, which is for a maximum of 14 months, is your consent in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG). You may withdraw your consent at any time, but this does not affect the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal. The easiest way to withdraw your consent is to use our Consent Manager or to install Google's browser add-on, which is available via the following link: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en/.

 

For more information about the services provided by Google Analytics, please go to marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/terms/en/. Google provides information about data processing when using Google Analytics under the following link: support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en/. For general information about data processing, which Google believes should also apply to Google Analytics, is available in Google's Privacy Policy at www.google.co.uk/intl/en/policies/privacy/.

8. Social networks 

 

8.1 Integration of YouTube videos

We have integrated YouTube videos into our website, which are stored on YouTube.com and can be played directly from our website.

 

The legal basis for processing your data is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG), i.e. this service is only integrated into the website with your consent.

 

YouTube also processes your personal data in the USA. For these cases, YouTube states that it has set itself a benchmark equivalent to the former EU-US Privacy Shield and has explained that it complies with applicable data protection laws when transferring data internationally. We have also agreed standard contractual clauses with YouTube pursuant to Article 46(2)(c) GDPR, the purpose of which is to ensure compliance with an adequate level of data protection, in the third country.

 

Since YouTube processes your personal data in the USA, your personal data is only processed in this way if you have given us your optional consent for such processing in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG) in conjunction with Article 49(1)(a) GDPR. Before giving your consent pursuant to Article 49(1)(a) GDPR, please note in particular that, in the absence of an adequacy decision and suitable guarantees, there may not be an adequate level of data protection in the USA, as data protection laws do not comply with the requirements of GDPR. In particular, data subjects' rights may not be enforced and, based on the CLOUD Act, US authorities may have access both to group companies based in the USA and outside the USA, as long as they belong to a US group.

 

You may withdraw your consent at any time, but this does not affect the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal. The easiest way to withdraw is via our Consent Manager.

 

When you visit the website, YouTube is informed that you have accessed the corresponding subpage on our website. The basic data above, such as IP address and time stamp, are also transferred. YouTube receives this information, whether you have a user account that you are logged in to or have no user account. If you are logged, your data is directly linked to your account. If you do not want data to be linked to your YouTube profile, you must log out before enabling the button. YouTube stores your data in usage profiles and uses the data for advertising purposes, as well as for market research and/or to optimise the design of its website for users. Analysis of this kind is carried out in particular, even for users who are not logged in, to provide targeted advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of such user profiles, and you must contact YouTube to exercise this right.

 

For more information about the purpose and extent of data collection and processing by YouTube, please see YouTube's Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy also provides more information about your rights and optional settings to protect your privacy at www.google.co.uk/intl/en/policies/privacy/.

All of the above providers (except Xing, which is based in Germany) state that they comply with an adequate level of data protection equivalent to that of the former EU-US Privacy Shield and we have concluded the standard contractual clauses pursuant to Article 46(2)(c) GDPR with the companies.

 

Please note that, in the absence of an adequacy decision and suitable guarantees, there may not be an adequate level of data protection in the USA, as data protection laws do not comply with the requirements of GDPR. In particular, data subjects' rights may not be enforced and, based on the CLOUD Act, US authorities may have access both to group companies based in the USA and outside the USA, as long as they belong to a US group.

 

We do not known how the social media platforms use the data from your visit to our account or interaction with our posts for their own purposes, how long such data is stored or whether data is passed on to third parties. The processing of data may be different depending on whether you are registered and logged in to the social network or visit the site as a non-registered user and/or user who is not logged in. When you access a post or the account, the IP address assigned to your device is sent to the provider of the social media platform. If you are logged in as a user at the same time, a cookie on your device can be used to track how you have moved around the network. Buttons embedded in websites make it possible for the platforms to record your visits to such website pages and assign them to your relevant profile. This data can be used to provide personalised content or ads. If you want to prevent this, you must log out or disable the "stay logged in" function, delete the cookies on your device and restart your browser.

 

We rely on the technical platform and services provided by the providers for these information services. Please note that you use our presence on social media platforms and associated functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to using interactive functions (e.g. commenting, sharing and rating). When you visit our accounts, the providers of the social media platforms collect your IP address and other information that is on your device in the form of cookies. This information is used to provide us, as operator of the accounts, with statistical information about your interaction with us.

 

As the provider of the information service, we also only process the data from your use of our service that you provide to us and require interaction. For example, if you ask a question that we can only answer by email, we store your information in accordance with the general principles according which we process data, which we describe in this Privacy Policy.

 

The legal basis for processing your data on the social media platform is legitimate interest in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

 

The legal basis for taking part in competitions is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of a contract).

 

To exercise your rights as data subject, you can contact us or the provider of the social media platform. To the extent that one party is not responsible for replying or needs to obtain the information from the other party, we or the provider then forward your request to the relevant partner. Please contact the operator of the social media platform directly for questions about profiling and the processing of your data when you use the website. If you have any questions about the processing of your interaction with us on our website, please write to the contact details we have provided above.

9. Advertising

 

9.1 General advertising 

Our intention is to process the data you provide or that we collect in the course of an existing customer relationship or other contractual relationships involving payment for advertising purposes as well. In this case, the legal basis under data protection law is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, (legitimate interest). According to the recitals to GDPR, there is a legitimate interest in particular with regard to direct marketing (Recital 47 sentence 7). The term "direct advertising" means a provider directly approaching a customer with the aim of promoting the sale of products or services for payment. Customer satisfaction surveys and taking part in surveys can also fall under the legal concept of advertising. The other legal requirements (in particular Section 7(3) of the German Act against Unfair Competition (UWG) must, of course, be observed.
 

In the absence of an existing customer relationship or any other contractual relationship involving payment, we only process your personal data for advertising purposes if you have given us your optional consent to do so (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR).

 

With your consent, you can also e.g. subscribe to our newsletter, which we use to inform you about our current offers and events. We use the double opt-in procedure to subscribe to our newsletter via our websites and portals. This means that, once you have subscribed, we will send an email to the email address you have provided, where we ask you to confirm that you want to receive the newsletter. We also store the IP addresses you have used and the times that you have signed up to the newsletter and confirmed that you want to receive the newsletter. The purpose of the procedure is to confirm that you have signed up to the newsletter and, if necessary, to identify any possible misuse of your personal data. The only information that is required for us to send the newsletter is your email address and your choice of the parts of the newsletter you want to subscribe to.

 

Any further, separately indicated data is provided optionally and is used to address you personally. Once you have confirmed your email address, we store your personal data for the above purpose. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. Your consent is optional. You can refuse to consent without giving any reasons and without risk of any disadvantage as a result. You can also withdraw such consent at any time with effect for the future by clicking on the link provided in every newsletter email, by email or by sending a message to the contact details provided in this Privacy Policy, without risk of any disadvantage as a result.
 

Advertising may be by post, electronically, including email, in particular via our newsletter, on social media, by SMS/MMS or by phone call, where allowed by law.
 

Advertising relates in particular to all of our products and all of our services, customer satisfaction surveys and polls and to trade fairs and events and are stated on the consent page.

If you give your additional optional consent in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG), your user behaviour is also assessed. For this analysis, the emails that are sent contain web beacons or tracking pixels, which are single-pixel image files stored on our website. For the analyses, we link the following technical data: IP address, date and time of the request, time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), content of the request (specific page), access status/HTTP status code, the volume of data transferred, website from which the request comes, browser, operating system and its interface, language and version of the browser software with your email address and an individual ID in our customer database. We record when you read our newsletters, which links you click on in the newsletters, e.g. using confirmation of receipt or read confirmations, and infer your personal interests from such information. We link this data to the actions you have taken on our website, the interests you indicated when registering for the newsletter and the information already available about you or your company in our customer database with reference to the personal data you have provided. Using the data obtained in this way, we create a user profile to send you the newsletter and to personalise the advertising addressed to you to match your personal interests. Based on your personal profile, we send you information about new catalogues or special offers, for example. There is no such tracking if you have disable the display of images by default in your email program. In this case, the newsletter is not displayed completely and you may not be able to use all the features. If you display the images manually, there is tracking as described above. Any such consent is optional. You can refuse to consent without giving any reasons and without risk of any disadvantage as a result. You can also withdraw such consent at any time with effect for the future by email or by sending a message to the contact details provided in this Privacy Policy, without risk of any disadvantage as a result.
 

You can object to the processing of your personal data for advertising purposes and for data analysis at any time. The relevant contact details are listed at the end of this Privacy Policy. In this case, your personal data is no longer processed for advertising purposes and is deleted from the relevant advertising mailing lists.
 

If we use data processors on our behalf for this purpose, we have concluded a data processor agreement with them in accordance with the requirements of Article 28 GDPR. Processors only process your data in accordance with the legal requirements and with instructions from us and only to perform the processor agreement.

 

9.2 Use of Google Ads

We use the Google Ads service for ads to advertise our products and services. When you access our website via a Google ad, Google Ads stores a cookie on your device.

 

The legal basis for processing your data is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG), i.e. this service is only integrated into the website with your consent.

 

Google also processes your personal data in the USA. For these cases, Google states that it has set itself a benchmark equivalent to the former EU-US Privacy Shield and has explained that it complies with applicable data protection laws when transferring data internationally. We have also agreed standard contractual clauses with Google pursuant to Article 46(2)(c) GDPR, the purpose of which is to ensure compliance with an adequate level of data protection, in the third country.

 

Since Google processes your personal data in the USA, your personal data is only processed in this way if you have given us your optional consent for such processing in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR in conjunction with Section 25 of the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG) in conjunction with Article 49(1)(a) GDPR. Before giving your consent pursuant to Article 49(1)(a) GDPR, please note in particular that, in the absence of an adequacy decision and suitable guarantees, there may not be an adequate level of data protection in the USA, as data protection laws do not comply with the requirements of GDPR. In particular, data subjects' rights may not be enforced and, based on the CLOUD Act, US authorities may have access both to group companies based in the USA and outside the USA, as long as they belong to a US group.

 

Ads are delivered by Google via ad servers. For this purpose, we and other websites use ad server cookies, which can be used to measure certain parameters of success, such as displayed ads or clicks by users. Using the Google Ads cookies stored on our website, we can obtain information about the success of our advertising campaigns. Such cookies are not intended to identify you personally. The unique cookie ID, number of ad impressions per placement, frequency, last impression, relevant for post-view conversions and opt-out information, indicating that a user wants to opt out, are usually stored as analysis values for this cookie.

 

Cookies set by Google allow Google to recognise your web browser. If a user visits certain pages on a Google Ads customer's website and the cookie stored on their computer has not yet expired, Google and the customer can see that the user has clicked on the ad and been redirected to that page. A different cookie is assigned to each Google Ads customer so that the cookies cannot be tracked across other Google Ads customers' websites. By integrating Google Ads, Google is informed that you have opened the corresponding part of our website or clicked on an ad from us. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can link the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, the provider can obtain and store your IP address.

 

Using Google Ads, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with Google's server. We do not collect personal data ourselves for the above advertising measures, but only provide Google with the ability to collect the data. We only receive statistical analyses from Google that provide information about that ads that have been clicked, how often and at what prices. We do not receive any further data from using the advertising; in particular, we cannot use this information to identify users.

 

You may withdraw your consent at any time, but this does not affect the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal. The easiest way to withdraw is via our Consent Manager or via the following functions: a. by setting your browser software accordingly. In particular, blocking third-party cookies means you will not receive ads from third-party providers; b. by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain "www.googleadservices.com", www.google.de/settings/ads. This setting is deleted when you delete your cookies; c. by deactivating interest-based ads of the providers that are part of the self-regulation campaign "About Ads" via the link www.aboutads.info/choices. This setting is deleted when you delete your cookies; d. by permanently deactivating them in your browsers using the following link: www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. Please note that, in this case, you may not be able to use all the features of this website in full.
