3. General information and mandatory information

Data protection

The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

When you use this website, various types of personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can be used to personally identify you. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.

Please note that data transmission over the internet (e.g. communication by email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).

Storage period

Unless a more specific storage period has been stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for which the data is processed no longer applies. If you submit a legitimate request for deletion or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the data will be deleted once these reasons no longer apply.

General information on the legal bases for data processing on this website

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR if special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is additionally based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information on your end device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), the data processing is additionally based on Section 25(1) TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time. If your data is required for the performance of a contract or for pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data where this is necessary to comply with a legal obligation on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.

Data Protection Officer

We have appointed a Data Protection Officer.

Wippro GmbH
Attn. Robert Wipplinger
Gewerbestrasse 2
4191 Vorderweissenbach

Phone: +43 7219 7004
Email: office@wippro.com

Recipients of personal data

As part of our business activities, we cooperate with various external parties. In some cases, this also requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only disclose personal data to external parties if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. disclosure of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the disclosure of data. When using processors, we only disclose our customers’ personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, an agreement on joint processing will be concluded.

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent that you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to object to data collection in specific cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME, ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS THE PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES TO ESTABLISH, EXERCISE OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract, either yourself or through a third party, in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be carried out where technically feasible.

Access, rectification and deletion

Within the scope of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain information free of charge about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, and, where applicable, the right to have this data corrected or deleted. You can contact us at any time regarding this and any other questions relating to personal data.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of personal data stored by us, we generally require time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data was or is unlawful, you may request restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer require your personal data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. For as long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may – apart from its storage – only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser’s address bar.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to promotional emails

We hereby object to the use of contact details published as part of our legal notice obligations for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and informational material. The website operators expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising information being sent, for example through spam emails.

4. Data collection on this website

Cookies

Our websites use so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small data packages and do not cause any damage to your end device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (persistent cookies) on your end device. Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Persistent cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them yourself or they are automatically deleted by your web browser.

Cookies may originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable certain services provided by third-party companies to be integrated into websites (e.g. cookies for processing payment services).

Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary because certain website functions would not work without them (e.g. the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies may be used to analyse user behaviour or for advertising purposes.

Cookies that are necessary to carry out electronic communication, to provide certain functions requested by you (e.g. for the shopping cart function), or to optimise the website (e.g. cookies used to measure the website audience) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. Where consent to the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG); consent may be withdrawn at any time.

You can configure your browser so that you are informed when cookies are set and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or generally, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. If cookies are disabled, the functionality of this website may be restricted.

If additional cookies and services are used on this website, you can find information about them in this privacy policy.

CCM19

Our website uses CCM19 to obtain your consent to the storage of certain cookies on your end device or to the use of certain technologies and to document this consent in compliance with data protection law. The provider of this technology is Papoo Software & Media GmbH, Auguststr. 4, 53229 Bonn, Germany (hereinafter referred to as “CCM19”).

When you access our website, a connection to CCM19’s servers is established in order to obtain your consent and other declarations regarding the use of cookies. CCM19 then stores a cookie in your browser in order to assign the consent you have given or its withdrawal to you. The data collected in this manner is stored until you ask us to delete it, delete the CCM19 cookie yourself, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Mandatory statutory retention obligations remain unaffected.

CCM19 is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1), sentence 1, lit. c GDPR.

Data processing agreement

Enquiries by email, telephone or fax

If you contact us by email, telephone or fax, your enquiry, including all personal data arising from it (name, enquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of dealing with your request. We do not disclose this data without your consent.

This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your enquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively processing enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), where such consent has been requested; consent may be withdrawn at any time.

The data you send to us via contact enquiries will remain with us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. once your enquiry has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

5. Analytics tools and advertising

Google Tag Manager

We use Google Tag Manager. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Tag Manager is a tool that enables us to integrate tracking or analytics tools and other technologies into our website. Google Tag Manager itself does not create user profiles, does not store cookies, and does not perform any independent analyses. It is used solely to manage and deploy the tools integrated through it. However, Google Tag Manager collects your IP address, which may also be transferred to Google’s parent company in the United States.

The use of Google Tag Manager is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the quick and uncomplicated integration and management of various tools on its website. Where corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent covers the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.

The company is certified under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF). The DPF is an agreement between the European Union and the United States intended to ensure compliance with European data protection standards for data processing in the United States. Every company certified under the DPF undertakes to comply with these data protection standards. Further information is available from the provider at the following link: https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/participant/5780.

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the Google Analytics web analytics service. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyse the behaviour of website visitors. In doing so, the website operator receives various usage data, such as page views, time spent on the website, operating systems used, and the user’s origin. This data is assigned to the respective user’s end device. It is not assigned to a user ID.

In addition, Google Analytics may allow us to record your mouse movements, scrolling movements, and clicks. Google Analytics also uses various modelling approaches to supplement collected datasets and applies machine-learning technologies to data analysis.

Google Analytics uses technologies that enable users to be recognised for the purpose of analysing user behaviour (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). Information collected by Google regarding the use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there.

The use of this service is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.

Data transfers to the United States are based on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses. Details can be found here: https://business.safety.google/adscontrollerterms/sccs/.

IP anonymisation

Google Analytics IP anonymisation is enabled. This means that Google shortens your IP address within Member States of the European Union or other states that are parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before it is transmitted to the United States. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the United States and shortened 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 other services related to website and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

Browser plugin

You can prevent Google from collecting and processing your data by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Further information on how Google Analytics handles user data can be found in Google’s privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

Data processing agreement

We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

6. Newsletter

Newsletter data

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require an email address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. No further data is collected, or it is only collected on a voluntary basis. We use newsletter service providers described below to manage the newsletter.

Brevo

This website uses Brevo to send newsletters. The provider is Sendinblue GmbH, Köpenicker Straße 126, 10179 Berlin, Germany.

Brevo is a service that can be used, among other things, to organise and analyse the distribution of newsletters. The data you enter for the purpose of receiving the newsletter is stored on the servers of Sendinblue GmbH in Germany.

Data analysis by Brevo

With the help of Brevo, we are able to analyse our newsletter campaigns. For example, we can see whether a newsletter message has been opened and which links, if any, have been clicked. This allows us, among other things, to determine which links are clicked particularly frequently.

We can also determine whether certain previously defined actions were carried out after opening or clicking (conversion rate). For example, we can determine whether you made a purchase after clicking on the newsletter.

Brevo also enables us to divide newsletter recipients into different categories (“clusters”). Newsletter recipients can, for example, be divided according to age, gender, or place of residence. This allows newsletters to be better tailored to the respective target groups.

If you do not want your usage to be analysed by Brevo, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide an appropriate unsubscribe link in every newsletter.

Detailed information on Brevo’s functions is available at the following link: https://www.brevo.com/de/newsletter-software/.

Legal basis

Data processing is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw this consent at any time. The lawfulness of data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Storage period

The data you provide to us for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us or by the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you unsubscribe. Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected.

After you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your email address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist if this is necessary to prevent future mailings. The data contained in the blacklist will be used exclusively for this purpose and will not be combined with other data. This serves both your interests and our interests in complying with the statutory requirements governing the sending of newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is not subject to a time limit. You may object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

Further information can be found in Brevo’s privacy information at: https://www.brevo.com/de/datenschutz-uebersicht/ and https://www.brevo.com/de/legal/privacypolicy/.

7. Plugins and tools

YouTube with enhanced privacy

This website embeds videos from YouTube. The operator of the website is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

When you visit one of our pages on which YouTube is embedded, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. In doing so, the YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you allow YouTube to associate your browsing behaviour directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

We use YouTube in enhanced privacy mode. According to YouTube, videos played in enhanced privacy mode are not used to personalise browsing on YouTube. Advertisements displayed in enhanced privacy mode are also not personalised. No cookies are set in enhanced privacy mode. However, so-called Local Storage elements are stored in the user’s browser. These are similar to cookies, contain personal data, and may be used for recognition purposes. Details on enhanced privacy mode can be found here: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/171780.

After a YouTube video has been activated, additional data processing operations may be triggered over which we have no control.

The use of YouTube is in the interest of presenting our online services in an appealing manner. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Where corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent covers the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.

Further information on data protection at YouTube can be found in its privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.

Google Fonts (local hosting)

This website uses so-called Google Fonts provided by Google to ensure uniform font display. Google Fonts are installed locally. No connection to Google servers is established.

Further information on Google Fonts can be found at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.
