Collection, processing and use of personal data

You can visit our site without disclosing any personal details. We only store visitors’ non-personal access data based on Google Analytics (see below). We analyse this data solely to improve our offer. It permits no link to be made to you personally.

We only collect personal data when you voluntarily give us your consent to do so by submitting an enquiry, making contact with us, or opening a customer account. Without your separate consent to do otherwise, we will use the data you disclose to us solely in order to deal with your enquiry, contact message or customer account opening.

Erasing and blocking data

We adhere to the principles of data avoidance and economy. Consequently, we will only store your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes stated here, or in accordance with the various retention periods allowed by law. When the intended purpose no longer applies, or the allowable retention period has expired, we will routinely block or erase the relevant data in accordance with legal requirements.

Use of data when you sign up to our e-mail newsletter

When you sign up to our e-mail newsletter, we will use the data necessary for this, or as submitted separately by you, in order to send you our newsletter on a regular basis. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time, either by sending a message to the contact set out below or by using a link provided in the newsletter itself.

Credit-checking and scoring/factoring

Where we provide supplies or services in advance of payment, such as when you make a purchase against invoice, we may obtain credit information in order to preserve our legitimate interests. This information is gathered on the basis of statistical methods by

TARGO Commercial Finance AG
Heinrich-von-Brentano-Str. 2
D – 55130 Mainz

We may also assign our claim against you to a third party on the basis of our factoring agreement.

In order to do that, we transmit the personal data required for credit-checking to TARGO Commercial Finance AG and use the information obtained concerning the statistical probability of your defaulting on payment to make a balanced decision on the establishment, execution or termination of our contractual relationship with you.

The credit check information may include probability data (scores) calculated on the basis of scientifically recognised statistical methods. These calculations include the use of address data among other criteria. Your privacy and security is respected in accordance with legal requirements.

Use of cookies

Our website makes use of cookies. Cookies will not harm your computer, and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files which are stored on your computer through your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called session cookies. They are automatically deleted when you leave our site. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. Those cookies enable us to recognise your browser the next time you visit us.

You can set your browser to notify you when cookies are set, and can decide whether to accept cookies on a case-by-case basis or generally disable them, and you can specify that they are automatically deleted when you close your browser. If you disable cookies, the functionality of our website may be restricted.

Server log files

Website providers automatically collect and store data in server log files which your browser automatically transmits to us. The data points transmitted are:

• Browser type and version
• Operating system being used
• Referrer URL
• Host name of the accessing computer
• Time of server request

 

This data cannot be linked to any specific person. The data is not merged with data from other sources. We reserve the right to check this data subsequently if we become aware of any evidence of illegal use.

Contact form

When you submit enquiries to us on our contact form, we will store the data you enter on it, including the contact details you specify, for the purposes of processing your enquiry and to deal with any follow-up questions. We will not pass on your data without your consent.

We will thus process the data you enter on the contact form solely on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR). You can revoke your consent at any time. All you have to do is send us an informal e-mail to that effect. The legality of the processing of your data shall remain unaffected by your revocation up to the point of revocation.

We will retain the data you enter on our contact form until you request us to erase it, you revoke your consent for us to store it, or until the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (such as on completing the processing of your enquiry). Essential legal requirements – in particular with regard to retention periods – remain unaffected.

Live chat

We use on our website a live chat of the company Userlike UG (limited liability), Probsteigasse 44-46, 50670 Cologne, Germany. You can use the live chat like a contact form to chat with our employees in almost real time. When starting the chat, the following data is generated:

• Date and time of the call,
•  browser type / version,
• IP address,
• used operating system,
•  URL of the previously visited website,
• Quantity of sent data

In case that there is currently no employee available for live chat, you can send a contact request via the chat window. In addition to the data mentioned above, the data that you provide us via the form will also be recorded. Depending on the course of the conversation with our employees, further personal data may be generated in the chat which you enter. By visiting the website https://shop.bb-sensors.com, the chat widget is loaded as a JavaScript file by AWS Cloudfront. The chat widget is effectively the source code that runs on your computer and allows the chat.

In addition, the history of live chats is saved. This is for the purpose of possibly saving you extensive explanations about the history of your request as well as the constant quality control of our live chat service. If you do not want this, do not hesitate to let us know. Please send an e-mail to datenschutz@bb-sensors.com. Stored live chats will be deleted immediately.
