General information on data processing
Scope of personal data processing
We only process our users' personal data to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and its content and services. Personal data is generally only processed with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for practical reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.
Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.
When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.
Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.
Data deletion and storage period
Your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies and there are no legal retention periods or other requirements to the contrary.

Date and time of access
Websites from which the user's system accesses our website
Websites accessed by the user's system via our website
HTTP status code
The data is also stored in our system's log files. This data is not stored together with other personal data relating to the user.
Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Purpose of data processing
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the website to be delivered to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.
Storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data helps us to optimise the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. The data is not evaluated for marketing purposes in this context.
These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Duration of storage
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of data collection for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.
In the case of storage of data in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or alienated so that it is no longer possible to assign the calling client.
Right to object and right to erasure
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is essential for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility for the user to object.

Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the context of the sending process is your consent Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR (checkbox with link to this privacy policy). If the purpose of the contact is to conclude a contract, the legal bases Art. 6 (1) lit. b) and lit. f) GDPR are also relevant.
The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. If the e-mail contact is aimed at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
Purpose of data processing
The processing of personal data from the input mask serves us solely for the purpose of processing the contact request. In the case of contact by e-mail, this also constitutes the necessary legitimate interest in the processing of the data.
The other personal data processed during the sending process serves to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.'
Duration of storage
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. For personal data from the input mask of the contact form and that sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is ended when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.
The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of seven days at the latest.
Right to object and right to erasure
The user has the option of revoking their consent to the processing of their personal data at any time. If the user contacts us by email, they can object to the storage of their personal data at any time. In such a case, the conversation cannot be continued.

Use of cookies
Description and scope of data processing
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in the internet browser or by the internet browser on your computer system. When a user accesses a website, a cookie may be stored on the user's operating system. These cookies contain a characteristic string of characters that enables the browser to be uniquely identified when the website is accessed again.
We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some elements of our website require that the calling browser can be identified even after a page change.
We also use cookies on our website that enable us to analyse the surfing behaviour of users. The user data collected in this way is pseudonymised by technical measures. This means that it is no longer possible to assign the data to the user accessing the website. The data is not stored together with other personal data of the users.
Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of personal data using technically necessary cookies is Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.
Insofar as cookies are set to analyse user behaviour, this is done on the basis of consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
Purpose of data processing
The purpose of using technically necessary cookies is to simplify the use of websites for users. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies. For these, it is necessary that the browser is recognised even after a page change. As a website operator, we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of our services.
The user data collected by technically necessary cookies is not used to create user profiles.
Analysis cookies are used for the purpose of improving the quality of our website and its content. Analysis cookies tell us how the website is used, enabling us to continuously optimise our offering.
Duration of storage, possibility of objection and removal
Cookies are stored on the user's device and transmitted to our site by the user. Therefore, as a user, you have full control over the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your internet browser, you can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies. Cookies that have already been stored can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are deactivated for our website, it may no longer be possible to use all of the website's functions to their full extent.
Wera app
iOS & Android app
When using the iOS and Android app for the Wera app, we collect general data about your device (e.g. operating system version, errors that occur, etc.) and usage data. Our legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest in the continuous improvement of our application in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.
When using the app, it is not possible to create a user account. The data is processed via a so-called public ID, i.e. an anonymously generated identifier. This is used to identify the user's device in connection with the provision of technical support. Personal data is only processed if technical support is required.
There are various options for configuring the app. Data protection-friendly default settings have been made from the outset. For example, the tracking function is not activated. However, this can be adjusted accordingly in the app.
Logging out and deleting data
If you no longer wish to use the Wera app, you can delete it at any time. Your personal data collected specifically for Wera will be deleted immediately and irrevocably, unless there are legal retention rights or obligations in individual cases.

Applicant data protection
If you apply to us electronically, i.e. by e-mail or via our web form, we will collect and process your personal data for the purpose of handling the application process and implementing pre-contractual measures. We use a specialised software provider to handle the application process. The applicant portal is operated by Personio GmbH, Rundfunkplatz 4, 80335 Munich, with whom we have concluded a contract for order processing.
By submitting an application, you are expressing your interest in working for us. In this context, you provide us with personal data, which we use and store exclusively for the purpose of your job search/application. In particular, the following data is collected: first and last name, email address, telephone number, LinkedIn profile (if applicable).
You also have the option of uploading or sending documents such as a cover letter, your CV and references. These may contain additional personal data such as your date of birth, address, etc.
The legal basis for the processing of your applicant data is Art. 6 (1) lit. b) GDPR and Art. 9 (2) lit. b) GDPR. If, in the course of the application process, special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) GDPR are voluntarily disclosed, their processing is additionally carried out in accordance with Art. 9 (2) lit. b) GDPR (e.g. health data, such as severely disabled status).
Only authorised employees from the HR department or persons involved in the application process have access to your data.
Personal data is stored exclusively for the purpose of filling the vacant position for which you have applied.
Your data will be stored for a period of 6 months after the end of the application process. This is usually done to fulfil legal obligations or to defend against any claims arising from legal regulations. We are then obliged to delete or anonymise your data. In this case, the data is only available to us as so-called metadata without direct personal reference for statistical evaluations.
Integration of additional services and content from third parties
Third-party content, such as videos, fonts or graphics from other websites, may be integrated into this online offering. In order for this content to be displayed, it is necessary for the respective providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as "third-party providers") to collect the IP address of the users. Without the IP address, it would not be possible to transmit the content to the user's browser, as it is necessary for display. We endeavour to only integrate content whose providers use the IP address exclusively for the purpose of providing the content. However, we have no influence on whether third-party providers store the IP address for statistical purposes, for example. If we are aware of this, we will inform users accordingly. We use these integrations to provide and optimise our online offering.
The legal basis for the integration of additional third-party services and content is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our overriding legitimate interest lies in the best possible presentation of our online presence and in the user-friendly and economically efficient provision of our services. Please check the respective data protection conditions before transmitting personal data to these websites.

The following categories of service providers or data recipients may receive your data:

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure, which is why we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to and via our website. However, we secure our website and other systems as best we can against loss, destruction, access, modification or distribution of your data by unauthorised persons through technical and organisational measures.
We take precautions to ensure the security of your personal data. Your data is conscientiously protected against loss, destruction, falsification, manipulation and unauthorised access or unauthorised disclosure.
Rights of the data subject
If your personal data is processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you have the following "data subject rights" vis-à-vis the controller:
Right of access pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR
You may request confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed by us. If such processing is taking place, you may request the following information from the controller:
the purposes for which the personal data is processed;
the categories of personal data that are being processed;
the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been or will be disclosed;
the planned duration of storage of the personal data concerning you or, if specific information on this is not possible, criteria for determining the storage period;
the existence of a right to rectification or erasure of personal data concerning you, a right to restriction of processing by the controller or a right to object to such processing;
the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
any available information on the origin of the data if the personal data is not collected from the data subject;
You have the right to request information on whether the personal data concerning you is transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. In this context, you may request to be informed of the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer.
Right to rectification pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR
You have the right to rectification and/or completion vis-à-vis the controller if the personal data processed concerning you is inaccurate or incomplete. The controller must rectify the data without delay.
Right to restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR
Under the following conditions, you may request the restriction of the processing of personal data concerning you:
if you dispute the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of their use instead;
the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you require it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; or
if you have objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override your grounds.
Where processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, such data may – apart from being stored – only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.
If the restriction of processing has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.
Right to erasure pursuant to Art. 17 GDPR
a) Obligation to erase
You may request that we erase personal data concerning you without undue delay, and we are obliged to erase such data without undue delay if one of the following reasons applies:
The personal data concerning you is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
You withdraw your consent on which the processing was based in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
You object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(2) GDPR.
The personal data concerning you has been processed unlawfully
The erasure of personal data concerning you is necessary to comply with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.
The personal data concerning you has been collected in relation to the services offered by information society services pursuant to Art. 8(1) GDPR.
b) Information to third parties
If we have made the personal data concerning you public and are obliged to erase it in accordance with Art. 17 (1) GDPR, we shall take reasonable measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and implementation costs, to inform data controllers who process the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested the deletion of all links to this personal data or of copies or replications of this personal data.
c) Exceptions
The right to erasure does not apply if processing is necessary
for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;
for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Art. 9(2)(h) and (i) and Art. 9(3) GDPR;
for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of this processing, or
for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Right to be informed pursuant to Art. 19 GDPR
If you have exercised your right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing, we are obliged to notify all recipients to whom your personal data has been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.
You have the right to be informed by the controller about these recipients.
Right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data has been provided, provided that
the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR and
the processing is carried out using automated means.
In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transmitted directly from one controller to another controller, where technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be affected by this.
The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
Right to object pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR
You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR.
We will no longer process the personal data concerning you unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
If the personal data concerning you is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing.
If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.
In connection with the use of information society services, you have the option of exercising your right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications, irrespective of Directive 2002/58/EC.
Right to revoke the data protection consent declaration pursuant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR
You have the right to withdraw your data protection consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. To withdraw consent or to object, simply send us an email.
Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.
The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Art. 78 GDPR.
Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision
is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and the controller,
is authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or
is based on your explicit consent.
However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9 (1) GDPR, unless Art. 9 (2) (a) or (g) applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.
Changes to the data protection provisions
We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy – created by Prico® – at any time with future effect in order to ensure that it always complies with current legal requirements or to implement changes to our services in the privacy policy, e.g. when introducing new services.
