How we process your Information or share it

We will only use your personal information for the purpose for which it was given, we will not keep it for longer than is necessary and will destroy the information securely according to our formal retention policy.

Job application files for unsuccessful applicants are destroyed after 12 months of the decision being made.

Customer records are retained for longer periods against product warranty registrations so we can notify customers of firmware updates and other relevant product related information including end-of-life notifications and where support is concerned.

In order to process orders, payments, and financial transactions we use trusted and authorized secure third-party websites. Personal or sensitive information is not held or shared with third parties.

Marketing, Consents and Permissions

Via our newsletter, we inform you about our company, our services, and workshops. If you want to receive the newsletter, we require you to provide a valid e-mail address as well as information allowing us to verify that you are the owner of the specified e-mail address, or that its holder agrees to receive the newsletter. Further data is not collected. This data is only used to send the newsletters and will not be passed on to third parties. Upon subscription to the newsletter, we store your IP address and the date of the subscription. This only serves as proof in case a third party abuses an e-mail address and subscribes to the newsletter without the knowledge of the entitled party. In order to prevent potential abuse, we use what is called the double-opt-in procedure during the subscription process. This includes a double confirmation of the subscription to the newsletter: First, permission to send the newsletter must be granted; then, consent for receiving the newsletter must once again be given by e-mail. Only after this two-fold confirmation will the address be entered into the database. You have the right to withdraw, amend or change your consent for data storage and storage of the e-mail address as well as its use for sending the newsletter at any time. You may do this via a link at the end of each individual newsletter itself or by contacting us [email protected].
