We at Liebherr-Hausgeräte GmbH are pleased to welcome you to our web pages (hereinafter also referred to collectively as “website”) and thank you for your interest in the Liebherr Group.

The protection and security of your personal data is extremely important to us. We therefore consider it essential that we inform you below about the types of personal data we collect concerning you, the purposes for which we process this and the rights you have in relation to your personal data.

General information

What is personal data and what does processing mean?

– “Personal data” (hereinafter also referred to as “data”) is any information that says something about a natural person. Personal data is not only information that makes a direct reference to a specific person (such as the name or e-mail address of a person), but also information with which, given appropriate additional knowledge, a reference to a specific person can be made.

– “Processing” means any measures taken in relation to your personal data (such as the collection, recording, organisation, ordering, storage, use or deletion of data).

Who is the controller for the processing of your data?

The controller for the processing of your data is:

Liebherr-Hausgeräte GmbH

Memminger Straße 77-79

88416 Ochsenhausen

Germany

E-mail: [email protected]

How can you contact our data protection officer?         

Our data protection officer can be reached using the following contact details:

What rights do you have as a data subject?

Within the provisions of the legislation, as the data subject you have the right to:

– Information about your data;

– The correction of incorrect data and the completion of incomplete data;

– Deletion of your data, particularly if (1) it is no longer necessary for the purposes stated in this data protection declaration, (2) you withdraw your consent and there is no other legal basis for the processing, (3) your data has been unlawfully processed or (4) you have objected to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing;

– Restriction of the processing of your data, particularly if the accuracy of the data is contested by you or the processing of your data is unlawful and you request the restriction of use instead of deletion;

– Object to processing of your data based on legitimate interests on grounds arising from your particular situation, or, without specific justification, to processing of your data carried out for direct marketing purposes; unless it is an objection to direct marketing, we ask that you explain the reasons why we should not process your data as we may do, when you lodge an objection. In the event of your reasoned objection, we will examine the merits of the case and cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;

– Receive your data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and the right to have your information transferred by us directly to another controller;

– Withdraw consent, if you have given us consent for processing. Please note that the withdrawal of your consent shall not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent until the withdrawal.

If you seek to assert the above rights, kindly note that we may require you to provide proof to establish that you are the person who you say you are.

Furthermore, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you consider that the processing of your data infringes the GDPR.

Links to other websites

Our website may contain links to and from websites of other providers, which are not affiliated with us (“third parties”). Once the link has been clicked, we no longer have any influence over the processing of any data transferred to the third party upon clicking the link (such as the IP address, or URL where the link is located) since the conduct of third-parties is obviously beyond our control. We are therefore unable to take any responsibility for the processing of such data by third parties.

Data processing

Log files

Each time you access and use our website, the web browser running on your end device (computer, smartphone or similar) automatically sends information to our web server and we store this information in so-called log files.

What data do we process and for what purpose?

We process the following data:

– Your (external) IP address

– Date and time of the access

– Domain name of your internet access provider

– The type and version of browser used by you and the operating system used by you

– URL (address on the internet) of the website you were on at the time of the access

– The files you retrieved via the respective website (nature of access, name of retrieved file, URL of retrieved file, result of retrieval)

– The volume of data transferred to you when visiting the respective website

– If necessary, date and time of sending when web forms are used

We process this data in principle only for the purpose of ensuring stability as well as network and information security.

Processing for other purposes occurs only if the requisite legal conditions pursuant to Art. 6(4) GDPR have been met. In this case, we will of course comply with any information obligations pursuant to Art. 13(3) GDPR and Art. 14(4) GDPR.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

Your data is processed for the purposes of the legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

The legitimate interests pursued by us are to improve and maintain the stability and functionality, and the security of our website.

You have the right to object to processing at any time on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR for reasons arising from your specific situation.

Use of web forms

– E-mail newsletter

On our website, we offer you the option of subscribing to our e‐mail newsletter “FreshMAG” using web forms.

What data do we process and for what purpose?

We process the following data if required:

– Salutation

– Name

– E-mail address

– How frequently newsletter is sent (weekly/monthly)

– Your (external) IP address

– Date and time of subscription and acknowledgement of subscription

– Date and time of newsletter retrieval

The data provided by you are in principle processed by us solely in order to regularly send you our newsletter (if applicable with a personal greeting) by e‐mail and to provide you with marketing information on our products or service offerings or about corresponding promotions, events, competitions, articles, etc.

The data collected in the course of the newsletter subscription, together with the so‐called double opt‐in procedure, are in principle processed by us solely for the protection of the offer and to comply with our legal obligations to provide proof. With the double opt‐in procedure, you will receive an e-mail in the course of the newsletter subscription with a request for acknowledgement of your subscription to our newsletter. If you do not acknowledge your subscription by clicking on the confirmation link sent to you, you will not have subscribed for our e‐mail newsletter and will not therefore receive it.

We also track and analyse your interactions with our newsletter (measurement of opening and click rates) and store this information in your recipient profile. This is done in order to measure the success of our newsletter and to be able to continuously improve and design it in line with customer requirements. Opening rates are measured using a so‐called tracking pixel. This is a small, invisible image file that is automatically loaded by the web server when the newsletter is opened and therefore provides the information that the newsletter has actually been opened. Click rates, however, are measured in such a way that after clicking on a web link included the newsletter, you are first directed to a web server where your click is registered, and only then do you reach the actual target page.

Processing for other purposes occurs only if the requisite legal conditions pursuant to Art. 6(4) GDPR have been met. In this case, we will of course comply with any information obligations pursuant to Art. 13(3) GDPR and Art. 14(4) GDPR.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

Your data is processed based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) in conjunction with Art. 7 GDPR or for the compliance with a legal obligation pursuant to Art. 6(1)(c), (3)(a) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 32 GDPR (security) or Art. 7(1) GDPR (obligation to provide evidence).

You have the right to withdraw consent granted at any time with effect for the future and/or to object at any time to the processing of your data for marketing purposes. The withdrawal/objection does not affect the lawfulness of the processing before the withdrawal/objection. An isolated withdrawal/objection relating only to the measurement of opening and click rates and/or to the storage of the measurement results in recipient profiles is not possible. This means that, for this, you will have to unsubscribe from the newsletter as a whole. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time via e-mail to [email protected] or by clicking on the unsubscribe link at the end of each newsletter.

– Competitions

On our website, we offer you the opportunity to participate via web forms in various competitions run by different organisers. If you take this opportunity, we transfer your data, which has been collected by the respective form, to the competition organiser shown. The organiser is responsible for the subsequent processing of your data. For the details regarding the subsequent processing of your data, please refer to the organiser’s respective data protection declaration which is made available to you at the time the data is collected, and if required to the conditions of participation for the respective competition.

What data do we process and for what purpose?

We generally process the following data:

– Salutation

– Name

– E-mail address and/or telephone number

– Address

– Date of birth

– Content data (your responses to the competition)

We generally only process this data for the purposes of service provision (transferring your data to the organiser).

Processing for other purposes occurs only if the requisite legal conditions pursuant to Art. 6(4) GDPR have been met. In this case, we will of course comply with any information obligations pursuant to Art. 13(3) GDPR and Art. 14(4) GDPR.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

Your data is processed for the performance of a contract or to take steps prior to entering into a contract in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

Use of cookies and other technologies

A. General information

We use cookies and other technologies in connection with the provision of our website. The cookie information below allows us to provide you as the user of our website with additional information on data processing when cookies and other technologies are used.

I. What are cookies and other technologies?

Cookies are small text files which a web server can store and read on your end device (computer, smartphone or similar) via the web browser used by you. Cookies contain individual, alphanumeric character strings that enable the web browser you are using to be identified and they may also contain information on user-specific settings.

Besides cookies, we use the following other technologies:

– So-called local storage technology allows data to be stored locally only – i.e. solely on your end device and not on the web server – in the so-called “local storage” of your web browser. In contrast to cookies, data stored using local storage technology does not have an expiry date and is not simply automatically erased. In principle, however, you can erase this data yourself via your web browser. Please refer to the instructions from your web browser manufacturer on how to erase data stored via local storage technology.

– We have also integrated so-called tracking pixels (also called “pixels”, “pixel tags” or “web beacons”) on our website. Tracking pixels are small, usually invisible, image files that are automatically loaded by a web server and can provide information about your web browser or end device and also about your use of our website. This information can then be used to create a profile that is recognised when you visit our website again.

The cookies and other technologies referred to above are hereinafter together referred to as “cookies”.

II. What types of cookies and other technologies exist?

We distinguish between essential cookies on the one hand and optional cookies on the other:

Essential cookies are cookies, which are technically necessary for the functionality of our website and information technology systems as well as for ensuring their security and stability. In this category we also include cookies which store specific settings made, options selected or information entered by you until you close your web browser (at the latest). This is in order to provide the desired function that you have requested (e.g. login status, language setting etc.). Your consent is not required for storing or reading essential cookies. You cannot, therefore, manage essential cookies via the settings of the consent management service we use. This can only be done via your web browser where you can also erase cookies stored or block the storage of cookies.

Optional cookies are cookies, which are not essential for the functionality of our website and information technology systems or for ensuring their security and stability, but are used for analysis or marketing purposes. These cookies can, for example, be used to compile anonymous statistics and collect information on how you use our website. This enables us to analyse the use of our website and therefore to optimise it. In this category we also include cookies which store specific settings made, options selected or information entered by you; these cookies remain after you have closed your web browser in order to provide the desired function you have requested (e.g. login status by selecting “Remember my e-mail address”, wish list, comparison list, etc.) over a longer term. Your prior consent is generally required for storing or reading optional cookies. You can consent to the use of optional cookies and withdraw any consent you have granted at any time with future effect via the settings of the consent management service we use.

Both essential and optional cookies may be so-called session cookies or persistent cookies. These differ in terms of their intended lifetime or functional life:

Session cookies are stored on your end device and are automatically deleted when you close your web browser.

Persistent cookies (or permanent cookies) are stored on your end device and are not automatically deleted when you close your web browser. They remain on your end device for a predefined period of time.

Data stored using local storage technology does not have an expiry date and therefore has an unlimited functional life.

Note: You can generally erase cookies and data stored using local storage technology yourself via your web browser. For details, please refer to the instructions from your web browser manufacturer.

Consent management

Opening settings

In order that you can manage the use of optional cookies on our website, we have implemented a consent management service. The first time you access our website you will be presented with a previously defined query (“Cookies, other technologies and miscellaneous services”) via the consent management service. This allows you to accept or decline the use of optional cookies by clicking the appropriate button. Clicking on “settings” will also take you to the settings of the consent management service. Here, for example, a simplified list of cookies classified by type is included. The consent management service enables you, for example, to find out about the purposes of the cookies we use, the data processed in each case as well as any data recipients. Also, in the case of optional cookies, you can give or withdraw your consent at any time by selecting or deselecting the relevant box.

Please note that essential cookies are already stored when accessing our website and that the relevant box is preselected. Essential cookies cannot be deselected via the consent management service. The functionality of the consent management service itself in turn requires the use of certain cookies.

Content Delivery Network

To optimise the loading times of our website, we use a so-called “Content Delivery Network” (hereinafter “CDN”). A CDN is a network of geographically distributed servers and servers connected via the Internet. This network can be used to deliver web content faster and more securely. Within the CDN, personal data is transferred to various countries. Transfer to countries outside the EU or the EEA, so-called “third countries”, takes place in compliance with the conditions laid down in Chapter V of the GDPR. Standard contractual clauses (Art. 46(2)(c) GDPR) adopted by the EU Commission have been concluded with the service provider.

Load Balancer

For load distribution we use a so-called “load balancer”. A load balancer enables web requests to be sent to a load balancing server which then redirects the web request to an internal server. So that you are not routed back and forth within a session between different servers and to ensure uniform processing, your web requests are forwarded to the same server. To identify that server and to ensure correct redirection, we use a session cookie with a lifetime or functional life of 8 hours.

Country detection

We use a session cookie to enable user-oriented language display of our website. This means the language of your web browser will be detected and our website will be displayed for you in the same language.

2. On which legal basis are essential cookies used?

In order to be able to demonstrate that – or whether – you have consented to the use of optional cookies requiring your consent, we store the information about your consent, whether granted or not, in order to fulfil our legal obligation to provide evidence in accordance with Art. 6(1)(c) and Art. 6(3)(a) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 7(1) GDPR.

We also use essential cookies for the purposes of legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Our legitimate interests are:

– Ensuring the security and stability of our website and information technology systems, for example by protecting against attacks in the form of targeted server overloads (Denial of Service attacks) or by using optimal load distribution on servers

– Asserting, exercising and defending legal claims

– Providing and guaranteeing the proper functionalities of our website

3. How can I object to the use of essential cookies?

You can exercise your right to object using the blocking options described under “Erasing/blocking cookies” (cf. Art. 21(5) GDPR), i.e. by blocking essential cookies via your web browser settings.

Please note that in the case of erasing without blocking, essential cookies will be set again when you access our website at a later point in time. Please also note that deactivating or erasing or blocking essential cookies may adversely affect the performance and functionality of our website and may cause certain features and functions to be unavailable.

II. Optional cookies

We would like to use the information below to enable you to make a sound decision for or against the use of optional cookies and the associated data processing.

Web analysis

Subject to your consent, we use web analysis cookies to analyse the use of our website and therefore to be able to improve it continuously. The anonymised user statistics obtained (e.g. number and origin of website visitors) enable us to optimise our website and make its design more attractive – e.g. by appropriately positioning frequently accessed information or topics on our website in line with customer requirements.

For web analysis we use “Google Analytics”, a web analysis service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; parent company: Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereinafter jointly referred to as “Google”), with the “IP anonymisation” extension (also called “IP masking method”). For this we have concluded a data processing agreement with Google in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. In accordance with this, Google will process the data collected (data about your end device or your web browser, IP addresses and your website or application activities) on our behalf for the purposes of evaluating your use of our website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services for us relating to website and internet usage.

The data collected using Google Analytics can be stored and processed in the USA or in any other country in which Google, or subprocessors of Google, maintain facilities. However, the IP masking method we use means that before transfer to a Google server in the USA and before storage there, the IP address is shortened within EU member states or in other EEA member states so that no IP address is transferred in its entirety. This prevents identification of a person or makes this significantly more difficult. Only in exceptional cases will the complete, i.e. unshortened, IP addresses be transferred to a Google server in the USA and only shortened there.

For a data transfer to a third country, i.e. a country outside the EU or EEA, appropriate safeguards for the protection of your personal data are generally required. After the Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1250 of 12 July 2016 on the adequacy of the protection provided by the EU-US Privacy Shield was declared invalid by the European Court of Justice, the EU-US Privacy Shield can no longer be used to guarantee an adequate level of protection in the USA in line with EU standards. This means that currently in the USA there is no level of data protection that is equivalent to that in the EU pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR and we cannot provide appropriate safeguards under Art. 46 GDPR to offset this shortfall. Data transfer to the USA is consequently only permitted in this case with your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. Possible risks of data transfer are that access by state authorities and/or intelligence services cannot be ruled out and your data, possibly without you being specifically informed about it and without being granted enforceable rights and effective legal remedies, can be processed by them for reasons of national security, prosecution or for other purposes in the public interest of the USA.

Marketing

We use marketing cookies, subject to your consent. Marketing cookies can detect whether you have accessed an advertised website and which content has been and is being used by you. This is in order to display advertising content relevant to you and tailored to your interests, to limit the frequency with which advertisements appear and to measure the success and effectiveness of advertising campaigns.

For marketing purposes, we use the following advertising products of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; parent company: Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereinafter together referred to as “Google”).

We use the advertising product “Google Ads” (formerly: AdWords). This product enables us to display advertisements, for example in Google search results in the Google partner network or on other Google platforms. When you interact with an advertisement placed through Google Ads, such as by clicking on an advertisement, “Google Ads Conversion Tracking” uses a cookie to track whether you have subsequently completed an action (“conversion”) defined by us, such as subscribing to a newsletter. The information obtained with the cookie used is provided to us by Google in the form of so-called conversion statistics. From these statistics we can read, for example, the total number of anonymous users who have clicked on our advertisement. We receive no information ourselves that would enable personal identification. In addition to Google Ads Conversion Tracking, we use “Google Ads Remarketing” which enables advertisements to be displayed in the Google partner network during your subsequent internet usage following your visit to our website. For this purpose, Google records your usage behaviour when you visit various websites in the Google partner network, for which, according to Google, pseudonymisation is used. “Google Ad Manager” (formerly: DoubleClick) is another advertising product we use. We use this to present targeted advertisements to you based on your perceived interests. A pseudonymous identification number is assigned to the web browser you are using in order to check which advertisements have already been displayed in your web browser and which of these you have accessed.

Data collected in the context of Google’s advertising products may be stored and processed by Google, for example in the USA. We have no influence over subsequent data processing by Google. For a data transfer to a third country, i.e. a country outside the EU or EEA, appropriate safeguards for the protection of your personal data are generally required. After the Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1250 of 12 July 2016 on the adequacy of the protection provided by the EU-US Privacy Shield was declared invalid by the European Court of Justice, the EU-US Privacy Shield can no longer be used to guarantee an adequate level of protection in the USA in line with EU standards. This means that currently in the USA there is no level of data protection that is equivalent to that in the EU pursuant to Art. 45 GDPR and we cannot provide appropriate safeguards under Art. 46 GDPR to offset this shortfall. Data transfer to the USA is consequently only permitted in this case with your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. Possible risks of data transfer are that access by state authorities and/or intelligence services cannot be ruled out and your data, possibly without you being specifically informed about it and without being granted enforceable rights and effective legal remedies, can be processed by them for reasons of national security, prosecution or for other purposes in the public interest of the USA.

2. On which legal basis are optional cookies used?

We use optional cookies on the basis of consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) in conjunction with Art. 7 GDPR.

3. How can I withdraw the consent I have granted for the use of optional cookies?

When you (first) access our website, we request among other things your consent for the use of optional cookies by means of a predefined query (“Cookies, other technologies and other services”). You can withdraw the consent you have granted at any time with effect for the future and thereby prevent further collection of your data by deselecting optional cookies (web analysis, marketing) in the settings of the consent management service.

If and insofar as you do not consent or withdraw consent already granted – (further) data collection by means of optional cookies requiring consent and data processing associated with this will cease. This has no disadvantages in terms of using the website unless you also deactivate the cookie functions for essential cookies.

The revocation of consent will not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent up to revocation.

As an alternative to withdrawing your consent, the options described under “Erasing/blocking cookies” relating to erasing or blocking cookies along with the information provided there are also available to you.

C. Erasing/blocking cookies

Cookies are stored on your end device which means that you have the control over these. If you do not want us to recognise your end device, you can deactivate or erase cookies already stored on your end device at any time – manually or automatically – and/or block storage of cookies with future effect by making the relevant setting on your web browser software. e.g. “not accept cookies” or similar. Most web browsers can also be configured so that cookie storage is only accepted if you agree to this separately on a case-by-case basis. If you do not want to accept cookies from our service providers and partners, you should have your web browser set to “block third-party cookies” or similar. The “Help” function in the menu bar of your web browser usually shows you how to deactivate or erase cookies already stored and how to decline new cookies. For details of the options described, please refer to the instructions from your web browser manufacturer.

Please note that in the case of erasing without blocking, essential cookies will be set again and we may ask you again for your consent to optional cookies when you access our website at a later point in time. Please also note that deactivating or erasing or blocking essential cookies may adversely affect the performance and functionality of our website and may cause certain features and functions to be unavailable.

You can manage the settings for the use of optional cookies and the data processing associated with this at any time in the settings of the consent management service.

Integration of third-party services

As part of the provision of our website, we integrate different content and functional elements (hereinafter also referred to collectively as “services”) which are obtained from the web servers of their respective providers (hereinafter referred to as “third-party providers”). Your IP address always needs to be transferred to the respective third-party provider to ensure the proper presentation and provision of the services. Although we endeavour to only integrate services where the respective third-party provider uses the IP address only to deliver the services, we have no influence on the subsequent processing by third-party providers.

For data transfers requiring consent, we ask you for your consent for the data transfer to third-party providers/third countries associated with the use of miscellaneous services, among other things, when you access our website for the first time with a predefined query (“Cookies, other technologies and miscellaneous services”). If you do not already grant your consent with this predefined query, third-party services requiring your consent will be blocked on our website and no data will be transferred to third-party providers/third countries. Instead, you can grant your consent separately in each case for individual third-party services by clicking “Accept” in the respective blocker. If, in future, you no longer want to grant consent individually to each third-party service and want to be able to load them without the respective blocker, you also have the option of selecting “always accept” and therefore also consenting to the associated data transfers for all other third-party services which you open on our website in the future.

You can withdraw the consent you have granted at any time with effect for the future and thereby prevent further transfer of your data by deselecting the corresponding services under “Miscellaneous services (optional)” in the https://www.youtube.com

The Google Tag Manager is a service which allows us to use other services, such as Google Analytics, on our website or to manage their use without having to change the source code of the website for this purpose. The Google Tag Manager itself does not collect or access any personal data, but merely controls and executes the services managed by it, which in turn may process data with your consent, if necessary.

Data transfers to third countries

A data transfer to entities in countries outside the European Union or the European Economic Area (so-called third countries) or to international organisations is permissible only (1) if you have given us your consent or (2) if the European Commission has decided that there is an adequate level of protection in a third country (Art. 45 GDPR). If the Commission has not taken such a decision, we can transfer your data to recipients located in a third country only if appropriate safeguards exist (e.g. standard data protection clauses adopted by the Commission or the supervisory authority under a specific procedure) and the enforcement of your rights as a data subject is guaranteed or the transfer is permissible in individual cases on the grounds of other legal bases (Art. 49 GDPR).

Where we transfer your data to third countries, we will inform you of the respective details of the transfer at the relevant points in this data protection declaration.

Data erasure and storage period

We process your data, provided that this is necessary for the respective purpose, if you have not effectively objected to the processing of your data or effectively withdrawn the consent that you may have granted.

If statutory retention obligations exist, we will have to store the data affected thereby for the duration of the retention obligation. After the expiry of the retention obligation, we will check whether there is any further necessity for processing. If there is no longer any necessity, your data will be deleted.

Data security

We use technical and organisational security measures to ensure that your data is protected from loss, improper changes or unauthorised access by third parties. Moreover, we ensure that, on our side, only authorised persons are granted access to your data and then only to the extent necessary for the above-mentioned purposes. The transfer of all data is encrypted.
