We only process data of our website users where this is required to provide a functional website and the content and services. User data are processed in accordance with the legal foundations, and only for the purposes we define in advance.
The companies in the HYDAC company group process data in accordance with the provisions of GDPR.
Consent
Where we obtain consent from the data subject for data processing, Art. 6 Par. 1 Cl. 1 a of GDPR serves as the legal foundation.
Fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures
When data must be processed to fulfil a contract, in which the data subject is a contract party, Art. 6 Par. 1 Cl. 1 b of GDPR is the legal foundation. This is also the case for processing required to perform pre-contractual measures.
Legal obligation
Where data must be processed to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 Par. 1 Cl. 1 c of GDPR serves as the legal foundation.
Legitimate interest
If the data processing is required to safeguard a legitimate interest of our companies or a third party, and if the data subject’s interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms do not have priority over the aforementioned interest, Art. 6 Par. 1 Cl. 1 f of GDPR serves as a legal foundation for processing.
The data subject’s data shall be deleted or processing of the data shall be restricted as soon as the purpose of processing no longer applies. The data can be stored beyond that if prescribed by European or national legislation in Union Regulations, laws or other rules to which the data controller is subject. Data processing is also restricted or data are also deleted when the storage period prescribed by the abovementioned legislation expires, unless data must be stored for a longer period for contract conclusion or contract fulfilment
For purely informative use of the website, i.e. if you do not want to register or send us information in other ways, we only collect the data your browser sends to our server. If you want to view our website, we collect the following data, which we require technically to display our website and ensure its stability and security.
The following data are collected:
The data are also stored in our system’s log files. This data are not stored together with other data of the user.
The legal foundation for the data collected based on requirements and for temporary storage of the data is Art. 6 Par. 1 Cl. 1 f of GDPR.
The system must collect and store data temporarily to facilitate delivery of the website to the user’s computer.
These purposes represent our legitimate interest in data processing in accordance with
Art. 6 Par. 1 Cl. 1 f of GDPR.
The data are deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. Where data are collected to provide the website, this occurs when the browser is closed.
The data are recorded to provide the website, and storage of data in log files is essential to operate the website. Accordingly, the user has no objection options in accordance with Art. 21 of GDPR.
We use cookies on various pages to facilitate your visit to our website and the use of certain functions. Cookies are small text files, which your browser can save on your computer. Based on your requirements, you can configure your browser to inform you when cookies are set, to allow you to make case-by-case decisions on whether to accept them, or to always accept or reject cookies. Cookies can be used for various purposes, e.g. to detect whether your PC has already been connected to a website (permanent cookies) or to save the last items viewed (session cookies).
The following cookies are collected when the website is opened:
We use cookies to offer you a more comfortable user experience. Some elements of our website require the browser that accesses it to be identifiable even after a page change.
Among other things, the following data are stored and transmitted in the cookies:
Our website also uses cookies that allow us to analyse the users surfing behaviour (see Point VI on this).
The legal foundation for processing the data using technically necessary cookies is Art. 6 Par. 1 Cl. 1 f of GDPR.
The legal foundation for processing the data using cookies for analytics purposes with relevant consent from the user is Art. 6 Par. 1 Cl. 1 a of GDPR.
The purpose of using technically necessary cookies is to improve the user experience on our websites. Some functions of our websites cannot be offered without cookies. They require that the browser is recognised even after the user leaves the page.
We need cookies for the following applications:
The user data collected by technically necessary cookies are not used to produce user profiles.
Analytics cookies are used to improve the quality of our website and our content. The analytics cookies show us how the website is used. In this way, we continuously optimize our site.
These purposes represent our legitimate interest in processing the data in accordance with Art. 6 Par. 1 Cl. 1 f of GDPR.
The storage period depends on the cookie used.
Cookies collected when the website is opened:
You can deactivate or restrict sending of cookies by changing the settings in your browser. Cookies already saved can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are deactivated for our website, you may not be able to use all website functions fully.
If you consented to the use of the analytics cookie and want to revoke your consent, you can find this setting under hydac.com/privacy.
On our website, we use the open-source software tool Matomo (formerly PIWIK) to analyse our users’ surfing behaviour. The software places a cookie on the user’s computer (see above on cookies). The following data are saved when the individual pages are opened:
The software runs exclusively on our website servers. The data are stored exclusively there. The data are not passed on to third parties.
The software is configured not to store full IP addresses, instead masking 2 bytes of the IP address (e.g.: 192.168.xxx.xxx). This renders attribution of the truncated IP to the accessing computer impossible.
The legal foundation for processing the user data is Art. 6 Par. 1 Cl. 1 a of GDPR.
Processing user data allows us to statistically analyse user behaviour for optimisation and marketing purposes. Analysing the data obtained enables us to compile information on the use of individual components of our website. That helps us improve our website and its user friendliness.
Data are only processed with express consent from the user. Anonymization of the IP address takes the user’s interest in protecting his or her data sufficiently into account.
The data are deleted as soon as they are no longer required for our statistical recording purposes.
Cookies are stored on the user’s computer and sent from there to our page. As a result, you have full control over the use of cookies as a user. You can deactivate or restrict sending of cookies by changing the settings in your browser. Cookies already saved can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are deactivated for our website, you may not be able to use all website functions fully.
On our website, users can opt out of the analytics process. To do so, follow the corresponding link. This sets another cookie on your system, which tells our system not to save the user’s data. If the user deletes the corresponding cookie on his or her own system, he or she must set the opt-out cookie again.
