Analysis and statistics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”. These are text files placed on your computer that enable the website to analyse how you use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website will usually be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. If IP anonymisation is active on this website, Google will, however, truncate your IP address beforehand within Member States of the European Union or other states that have signed up to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the entire IP address first be transferred to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information  to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide the website operator with other services relating to website and Internet use. The IP address transferred by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics will not be associated with any other data held by Google. You can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser software. If you do so, however, please note that it may not be possible for you to use the full scope of this website’s functions. Furthermore, you can prevent Google from collecting and using data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link (tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout).

You can prevent information from being recorded by Google Analytics by clicking the following link. This sets an opt-out cookie that prevents your data from being recorded during future visits to this website: Deactivate Google Analytics

You can find more information about the terms of use and data protection at www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html or at policies.google.com. Note that the code “anonymizeIp” has been added to Google Analytics on this website to ensure the anonymised entry of IP addresses (referred to as IP masking).

Google Maps.

This website uses Google Maps to display interactive maps and to create directions. Google Maps is a map service from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, California 94043, USA. By using Google Maps, information about the use of this website including your IP address and the (start) address entered as part of the route planner function can be transmitted to Google in the USA. When you access a website on our website that contains Google Maps, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Google servers. The map content is transmitted from Google directly to your browser, which integrates it into the website. We therefore have no influence on the scope of the data collected by Google in this way. According to our knowledge, this is at least the following data:

Date and time of visit to the website in question,
Internet address or URL of the website accessed,
IP address, (start) address entered as part of route planning.
We have no influence on the further processing and use of the data by Google and therefore cannot assume any responsibility for this.
If you do not want Google to collect, process or use data about you via our website, you can deactivate JavaScript in your browser settings. In this case, however, you cannot use the map display.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Google as well as your rights and setting options for protecting your privacy can be found in Google's data protection information (https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de).
By using our website and agreeing to cookies, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google Maps Route Planner in the manner and for the purposes set out above.

We integrate the maps of the service “Google Maps” from the provider Google. The processed data can include, in particular, IP addresses and location data of the users, which, however, are not collected without their consent (usually carried out as part of the settings of their mobile devices). Service provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, parent company: Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; Website: maps.google.de; Privacy Policy: policies.google.com/privacy; Privacy Shield (guaranteeing data protection level when processing data in the USA): www.privacyshield.gov/participant; Opposition option (opt-out): opt-out plugin: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout, settings for the display of advertisements: adssettings.google.com/authenticated.

Online job applications

As part of the Westfalen online application service, we require the following personal information from you: form of address, first name, last name, place of residence (house number, street, postcode, city, country), telephone number and e-mail address. Depending on the role that is being offered, we may require additional information, such as proof of your qualifications. You can provide this information to us at the relevant point.

This data is used exclusively during the application procedure for the job vacancy or vacancies for which you have applied. The data is not forwarded to third parties. The applicant data is processed within Westfalen AG and, in some cases, its subsidiaries (depending on the job vacancy) only by persons involved in the application process. If the data that you provide and enter is to be used for other purposes, this requires your specific consent, which is clearly indicated at the relevant points.

Once the application process is complete, we will delete your data unless storage of said data is required to comply with a statutory retention period.

Please use the online portal to apply for any job vacancies and do not send us your documents by e-mail. E-mail is not generally considered a secure means of communication.

The data that you provide, such as your name, customer number, delivery address and e-mail address, is used exclusively to fulfil the business purpose and to process your order at Westfalen AG and its subsidiaries, as applicable. The contact data that you provide is also used to send you up-to-date version of safety data sheets.

Your data is not processed for any purposes that go beyond its use as a means to fulfil the business purpose. If the data that you provide is to be used for other purposes, this requires your specific consent, which is clearly indicated at the relevant points.

The storage period is based on the statutory retention obligations set out in Section 257 of the German Commercial Code and Section 147 of the German Tax Code (6 or 10 years).

Geolocalisation

In order to ensure that you reach the right website for your country (e.g. automatic preselection of country and language), this website uses geolocalisation software developed by MaxMind (14 Spring Street, 3rd Floor Waltham, MA 02451, USA). This software analyses your IP address in order to determine your approximate location. The geolocalisation is based solely on anonymised IP addresses. The precise location of visitors to the website is excluded.

The data processing is based on our corporate interests resulting from the purpose of the processing and based on article 6 para. 1 point f) of GDPR. If you do not wish to use MaxMind, you can find detailed deactivation information here: https://support.maxmind.com/information

MaxMind complies with the Privacy Shield Agreement between the European Union and the USA and has been certified as such.

Information according to Art. 13 GDPR (valid from May 25, 2018)

Notes on the rights of those affected
Information obligation according to Art. 13 GDPR

The person concerned has the right to request confirmation from the person responsible as to whether personal data relating to them are being processed; if this is the case, she has the right to information about this personal data and the information listed in detail in Art. 15 GDPR.

The data subject has the right to request the person responsible to correct any incorrect personal data relating to them and, if necessary, to complete incomplete personal data (Art. 16 GDPR).

The person concerned has the right to demand that the person responsible delete personal data concerning them immediately, provided that one of the reasons listed in Art. 17 GDPR applies, e.g. B. if the data is no longer required for the purposes pursued (right to deletion), unless this is contrary to statutory retention or archiving periods.

The data subject has the right to request the controller to restrict processing if one of the conditions listed in Art. 18 GDPR is met, e.g. B. if the person concerned has objected to the processing, for the duration of the review by the person responsible.

The person concerned has the right to request that the personal data concerning them, which they have made available to one responsible person, be transferred to another responsible person (Art. 20 GDPR).

The data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data relating to them for reasons that arise from their particular situation. The person responsible will then no longer process the personal data unless he can prove compelling legitimate reasons for the processing that outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (Art . 21 GDPR).

Every data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. The person concerned can assert this right with a supervisory authority in the member state of their place of residence, their place of work or the place of the alleged violation.

Before you contact the responsible supervisory authority with a complaint, we would like to ask you to clarify this matter with our data protection officer.
