Declaración de protección de datos

Los datos personales son el objeto de la protección de datos. Según la Ley española de protección de datos (RGPD), los datos personales constituyen toda información individual sobre las circunstancias personales o reales de una persona física identificada o identificable. El RGPD va más allá y define «datos personales» como toda información relacionada con una persona física identificada o identificable, entendiendo por persona física identificable aquella que puede ser identificada, directa o indirectamente, a través de, en particular, la mención de un código de identificación como un nombre/apellido, un número de identificación, datos de ubicación o un código de identificación «online».

A menos que sus datos sean revelados en el presente documento o por otras circunstancias, no podemos identificarle.

Tanto nosotros como nuestros socios contractuales protegemos sus datos personales contra accesos no autorizados, pérdida, utilización o difusión y nos ocupamos de que su información personal siempre se utilice dentro del marco seguro y controlado que exige la ley, evitando así que se difundan o pierdan sus datos, o se acceda sin permiso a ellos.

Cuando los datos se tratan en nuestro nombre, trabajamos únicamente con empresas que ofrecen garantías suficientes de que se han establecido medidas técnicas y organizativas adecuadas para velar por que el tratamiento de los datos cumpla con el art. 28 del RGPD y por la absoluta protección de sus derechos legales.

Si contratamos a uno o más socios para determinar el propósito y los canales del tratamiento, asumimos la responsabilidad conjunta del proceso de conformidad con el art. 26 del RGPD. A tal efecto, especificamos conjuntamente en un acuerdo la responsabilidad que asume cada socio contractual conforme al RGPD.

Dentro de nuestra empresa, se han adoptado medidas técnicas y organizativas para cumplir con los requerimientos legales de la Ley RGPD, con el fin de proteger sus datos contra daños, destrucción, distorsión, manipulación y acceso no autorizado.

Para evitar recopilar cantidades de datos innecesarias, tratamos y utilizamos sus datos personales solo en la medida necesaria para prestar nuestros servicios.

You can, without charge and without giving reasons, obtain information about whether your personal data is processed. Pursuant to art. 15 GDPR and § 34 BDSG, you have the right to information about this personal data and to further information on the processing of your data stored with us.

As part of your legal rights under art. 16 and 17 GDPR and § 35 BDSG, you can have your data which is stored with us blocked, corrected or deleted.

Your personal data is deleted if no legal retention requirements stand in the way and you request deletion in writing or text.

Furthermore, you have the right to have incomplete data completed and to demand the curtailment of processing in the statutorily regulated cases in art. 18 GDPR if the personal data is incorrect.

You also have a right to data portability pursuant to art. 20 GDPR If we have mentioned art. 6 para. 1 a) or b) GDPR, or art. 9 para. 2 a) GDPR in this declaration as a basis of the data processing. When exercising the right to data portability, you have the right to demand that the personal data be transmitted directly from the controller of the data file to another controller of the data file if this is technically feasible.

Pursuant to art. 7 para. 3 GDPR, you also have the right to revoke the consent you once grated to us at any time. If you invoke this right, we are no longer entitled to process the data identified under this prior consent.

To make the processing of enquiries as efficient as possible, we provide a landing page. You can use this to submit your enquiries in a simple and structured way. Of course, enquiries can still be submitted by email or other means. The enquiries you submit, as well as the personal data you provide (such as title, surname, first name and your address), are then forwarded to an IT system where they are processed by our data protection teams. Please note that we need your e-mail address in order to be able to respond to your enquiry. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is Art. 6 para. 1 f) GDPR. We have carefully selected the provider of the IT system and commissioned it in accordance with Article 28 GDPR. For this purpose, we have concluded an additional agreement on order processing in which the subject matter and duration of the processing, the type and purpose of the processing, the type of personal data, the categories of data subjects and the obligations and rights of the controller are specified (in accordance with Art. 28 para. 3 GDPR).

We use the services of JENTIS GmbH (Schönbrunner Straße 231, 1120 Vienna, Austria) (‘JENTIS’) to carry out anonymous and limited reach measurement and to optimize the user-friendliness of our website for website visitors. For this purpose, data is transmitted to JENTIS, which JENTIS analyses on our behalf in anonymized form. This means that JENTIS only processes data that cannot be traced back to an identifiable person and provides us with aggregated traffic and performance statistics.

This involves the use of server-side tracking in which certain usage data is not recorded and processed in the browser, but on our server. Here too, anonymization takes place before further processing by JENTIS, so that no personal data is transmitted and no conclusions can be drawn about identifiable persons.

In addition, we use JENTIS to anonymize your personal data before transferring it to a third country and thus protect your data. The processing is based on our legitimate interest in a data protection-friendly and reliable analysis of website use in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

In this context, information, such as the orders placed, the average order values, shipping costs and the time from viewing the product to making the purchasing decision are tracked. These data may be consolidated by Google under a transaction ID, which is allocated to the respective user or the user’s device.

We also use Google Optimize. Google Optimize is a Google service (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; “Google“). We use the Google Optimize service to enhance the attractiveness, content and functionality of our website by statistically evaluating a percentage of our users and their changes in use habits as a response to new functions and contents we introduce. Google Optimize is a sub-service of Google Analytics (see Section “Google Analytics”). In addition, you can prevent collection of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website − your IP address in particular – as well as the processing of such data by Google by downloading and installing the Google browser plug-in available at this Link : www.tools.google.com

This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (‘Google’), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

With the help of Google conversion tracking, Google and we can recognise whether the user has carried out certain actions. For example, we can analyse which buttons on our website were clicked how often and which products were viewed or purchased particularly frequently. This information is used to generate conversion statistics. We find out the total number of users who have clicked on our adverts and what actions they have taken. We do not receive any information with which we can personally identify the user. Google itself uses cookies or comparable recognition technologies for identification purposes.

We also use enhanced conversions. This function supplements the existing conversion tags. We collect data that you provide to us as part of an interaction on our website (e.g. email addresses) and transmit it to Google in encrypted (hashed) form. Encryption is carried out using a secure one-way hash algorithm. The use of extended conversions enables us to allocate conversions more precisely. This allows us to better target our advertising campaigns and measure and optimise the effectiveness of our marketing measures. We can also offer users more relevant and useful content. You can find more information here.

The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time. You can find more information about Google Conversion Tracking in Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en

Formation of Target Groups with Customer Reconciliation

For the formation of target groups, we use, among other things, the Google Ads Remarketing customer reconciliation feature. To achieve this, we transfer certain customer data (e.g., email addresses) from our customer lists to Google.

We use Google Maps on the website in order to make orientation easier for you. Google Maps is a Google service (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; “Google“). When viewing the contact pages, your web browser is instructed to load the functions and map data needed for this directly from the server of Google. These servers may reside in the United States or other countries of the world. We have no control options for this and receive no information from Google about whether you have exchanged corresponding map information during your visit to our page. Whether Google has only delivered technically necessary information to you or saved and evaluated further data about you or your system, such as IP addresses, information about your browser, etc., is not made available to us. Die Google Privacy Policy statement (https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/index.html) also applies to Google Maps. We expressly indicate here that Google processes the following categories of data: device-related information, IP address, hardware settings, browser type, browser language, date and time of your query and referring URL, cookies (blockable by you in the browser settings, see also above), location-based information. Google can link the data with other data from you and uses the data collected in the course of the services for provisioning, maintenance, protection and improvement of the Google services, for the development of new services as well as to protect Google and its users. Google also uses this data to offer you customized contents – for example, to provide you with more relevant search results and advertisements. Using data collected through cookies and other technologies, such as pixel tags, Google improves your user experience and the quality of Google services as a whole. For example, Google facilitates the storage of your preferred language setting in order to display services in the language you prefer. Before Google uses information for purposes other than those listed by Google in the Google Privacy Policy, Google will ask you for your consent. With your consent, Google also shares data with third parties for contract data processing and for legal reasons. You can also change settings related to data privacy at Google when you log in there.

This website uses Google AdSense, an ad embedding service provided by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use Google AdSense in the “non-personalized” mode. Contrary to the personalized mode, the ads are not based on your previous user patterns and the service does not generate a user profile for you. Instead, the service uses so-called “context information” to choose the ads that are posted for you to view. The selected ads are thus based e.g., on your location, the content of the website you are visiting at the time, or the search terms you are using. To learn more about the distinct differences between personalized targeting and targeting that has not been personalized by Google AdSense, please click on the following link: https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/9007336.

Please keep in mind that if Google Adsense is used in the non-personalized mode, it is possible that cookies are stored or comparable recognition technologies (e.g., device fingerprinting) are used.

The use of these services occurs on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke your consent at any time.

Data transmission to the US is based on the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) of the European Commission. Details can be found here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

Our website uses the marketing function “LinkedIn Insight Tag” of LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company (Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland; “LinkedIn“). Each time one of our pages containing functions from LinkedIn is viewed, a connection with the LinkedIn servers is established. This informs LinkedIn that you have visited our websites with your IP address. The active program function (JavaScript) serves to understand the actions of visitors to our website in anonymized form, to gauge the effectiveness of advertising and to present interest-related ads (“LinkedIn Ads“) in the course of the visit to the LinkedIn social network and other websites. The LinkedIn Insight tag is integrated into our website for this purpose, which establishes a connection with the LinkedIn server if you visit our website while simultaneously logged into your LinkedIn account. This assignment attempts to function across devices, so that user behavior between different devices is also evaluated. The basis for this use is Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.

We maintain a profile on the social media LinkedIn. Our social media presences, and consequently our profile on LinkedIn, are intended to ensure the broadest possible presence on the internet. When you visit our profile on LinkedIn, LinkedIn can generally analyse your user behavior.

We use "LinkedIn Lead Ads" for customer acquisition. LinkedIn Lead Ads are advertising placements on LinkedIn, in which LinkedIn uses forms to generate leads and functions, and content of the LinkedIn service can be integrated. In such advertising, defined information is requested in accordance with our current campaign or other measures. If you have a LinkedIn account, the advertisement can be prefilled with the information you have shared on LinkedIn.

With LinkedIn Lead Ads we offer you a function with which you can provide us your user information using your LinkedIn account. We use this functionality to be able to address you with relevant content and target group oriented. We have a legitimate interest for the use of LinkedIn Lead Ads, which is for marketing purposes in the context of initiating business. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.

If you are logged into your LinkedIn account and visit our profile on LinkedIn, LinkedIn can assign this visit to your user account. This also applies to advertising on LinkedIn via LinkedIn Lead Ads. However, your personal data may also be collected under certain circumstances if you are not logged in or you do not have a LinkedIn account. In this case, data may be collected e. g. via cookies that are stored on your end device or by recording your IP address.

With this collected data LinkedIn can create user profiles with your preferences and interests. In this way, interest-based advertising can be displayed to you within and outside the social media presence. If you have a LinkedIn account, the interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices on which you are already or were logged in.

You can find additional information on data collection and use, as well as your options and rights for the protection of your privacy in the LinkedIn privacy policy at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.

Chat function

We provide a chat function on our website. As part of the chat function, you can communicate with a WAGO customer advisor via a live chat. Sinch Contact Pro is a CCaaS software from Sinch Sweden AB, (Sinch Sweden AB, Lindhagensgatan 74, 112 18 Stockholm, Sweden). We have carefully selected these providers and commissioned them in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. For this purpose, we have concluded an additional data processing agreement with Sinch Sweden AB, in which the subject matter and duration of the processing, the type and purpose of the processing, the type of personal data, the categories of data subjects and the obligations and rights of the controller are defined (in accordance with Art. 28 para. 3 GDPR). As part of the chat function, for example, you can provide the following information about yourself: First name, last name, e-mail address. Depending on the course of the conversation, further personal data may be transmitted by you. The type of this data depends largely on your request or the problem you describe in the chat. However, this data could generally be of the following types:

• License information;

• a specific order number;

• Documents, such as invoices or orders, in which personal data has been processed;

• Information about your orders;

• Audio and voice recordings;

• photographs.

The processing of your data is based on your consent and for the implementation of contractual and/or pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 para. 1 lit a, b GDPR). In addition, WAGO stores the date and time of the chat conversations. The content of the chat conversations themselves (“chat protocol”) is also stored. If the name or e-mail address provided is assigned to a WAGO customer number, this can be traced by the relevant WAGO customer advisor during the chat. As part of your request, it may be necessary for your chat data to be forwarded to your responsible WAGO customer advisor for further processing. This is particularly the case if your request requires further processing, for example to prepare an offer or to clarify a specific request. As part of the chat functionality, AI-supported features of the Sinch Contact Pro platform may also be used. This may include, in particular, the automated analysis of chat content, support in handling inquiries, the generation of response suggestions, or the structured summarization of communication content.

In this context, personal data entered by you during the chat communication may be processed automatically. The processing is carried out solely for the purpose of efficiently handling your request, improving our customer service, and supporting our employees in communicating with you.

The AI-supported functionalities are not used to make decisions based solely on automated processing within the meaning of Art. 22 GDPR that produce legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affect you.

The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, insofar as you have given your consent, and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, insofar as the processing is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures or for handling your request. Furthermore, the processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR due to our legitimate interest in efficient and customer-oriented communication.

We wish to develop our website optimally and, for this, collaborate with trbo GmbH (Leopoldstr. 41, 80802 Munich, Germany; "turbo”), whose tracking tools we use in order to manage and improve our online offerings. We implement these tools in order to quantify the use of our online offerings and the effectiveness of our online advertising. This helps us understand which pages are especially attractive to the users of our services, which products interest our customers most and which individual offerings we should provide for our respective website users.

The data collected and used in this context is always stored only under a pseudonym (e.g. a random identification number) and is not conflated with your personal data (e.g. name, address, account number, etc.). If and when trbo obtains access to the data, this occurs exclusively on our behalf and under our supervision. For this, we have entered into a contract with trbo for processing personal data on our behalf (pursuant to Art. 28 (3) GDPR).

Technically, we use the installed tracking tools, particularly so-called "cookies" and "web beacons," to collect the following information: which pages are visited, when, how often and in what order, which products are searched for, which links or offerings are clicked on and which orders are placed.

Link If you prefer that we not collect and use information on your usage of the website in this manner, you can object to it (so-called “opt-out”) at the following link TRBO OPTOUT COOKIE. For this purpose, a corresponding opt-out cookie, which contains no data suitable for tracking but which merely makes it possible to recognize your objection to the data collection, is set on your computer so that this is no longer performed.

We use „Contentsquare“ a Contentsquare S.A.S. Web analysis service (5 boulevard de la Madeleine, 75001 Paris, France). The German branch is located at Implerstraße 25a, 81371 Munich, Germany.

To design, create and process online and opinion surveys, we work with Qualtrics (QDL Technologies GmbH at Wework, Neuturmstr. 5, 80331 Munich, Germany). We have carefully chosen and engaged this provider pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR.

Any participation in surveys is on a solely voluntary basis. For this, we have entered into a contract with Qualtrics for processing personal data on our behalf (pursuant to Art. 28 (3) GDPR).

Any personal information you divulge during the survey is understood as voluntary and is saved in accord with local law. Unless explicitly set forth in the survey description or you have granted your express consent, no personal data is transferred to third parties. If the survey also elicits personal information in excess of its purpose (e.g., name, address, company, etc.), we will indicate in the course of the survey that the additional information we collect and use is voluntarily given.

In addition to completely anonymised surveys, we also conduct individualised surveys, e.g. customer satisfaction surveys. Personal data is processed in order to sustainably improve your individual experience and satisfaction with WAGO. The processing of your personal data takes place only on the basis of your consent within the respective survey. The legal basis for data processing is your consent, Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. In the case of surveys, e.g. those that relate directly to your interactions or transactions with WAGO, personal data may also be collected as a necessary component of the survey. We use this data to optimise our offer and customer service in accordance with our legitimate interest in efficient and improved customer service, Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR. If you are already our customer or will be in the future, we may collect, save, modify and transmit the data for the establishment, execution or termination of the contractual relationship without the need for your consent and for as long as the law permits us to do so (Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR). WAGO stores your data to provide you with the best possible advice. Your personal data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected, unless we are authorised or obliged by law, contract or your consent to store the data for longer.

We use tracking tools when you participate in a survey or opinion poll. Technically, we use the installed “cookies” and “web beacons” tracking tools, which are generally used to track survey sessions so that they are not repeated, or to save the session.

If you prefer that we not collect and use information on your usage of the website in this manner, you can object to it (so-called “opt-out”) at the following link: QUALTRICS OPTOUT COOKIE. For this purpose, a corresponding opt-out cookie, which contains no data suitable for tracking but which merely makes it possible to recognize your objection to the data collection, is set on your computer so that this is no longer performed.

Further information on the Qualtrics privacy policy is available here: https://www.qualtrics.com/privacy-statement/

In order to design, create and process online and opinion surveys, we work together with the provider Evolute CX GmbH (Speditionstraße 15a, 40221 Düsseldorf). We have carefully selected this provider and commissioned it in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. Participation in surveys is purely voluntary. The legal basis is therefore Art. 6 para. 1 a) GDPR. Any personal information you provide during the response will be considered voluntarily given and processed according to the guidelines of local legislation. Personal data will not be disclosed to third parties unless this is explicitly stated in the survey description or you have given your explicit consent for this. Insofar as personal data is requested within the scope of the survey beyond the topic of the survey (e.g. name, address, company, etc.), we point out separately within the scope of the survey that this is additional, voluntary information that we collect and use.

Your data will be processed exclusively for the purpose of recording and evaluating your feedback on the quality and satisfaction with our products, quality assurance and, if necessary, for contacting you in order to deepen your feedback and clarify specific questions if this is necessary for a more precise evaluation.

Your personal data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected, unless we are entitled or obliged by law, contract or your consent to store the data for longer. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future.

Further information on data protection at Evolute can be found here: https://evolute.app/ds

No online orders can be completed without your registration with your company data, with the result that no contracts on the online system can be entered into. If you wish to initially forego the online ordering option, prices and the like, we also offer you a registration with just email address and password. In addition, you can contact our sales team through other means of communication.

We will use the data you supply in the complete registration to verify your eligibility to purchase goods in accordance with our customer criteria. We will store the data and the time and result of the review in order to be able to permanently maintain the activation and perform any further review.

At login, your login data is compared with that in our database of stored access data. We only save failed logins in your user account to enable us to block the account after five successive failed logins to prevent unauthorized access attempts and protect you and us against attempted fraud (Art. 6 (1)(a), (b) and (f) GDPR).

When you place goods in the shopping cart or on the watch list, this is understood as a request to save this accordingly in our systems for you. We will store the noted goods and quantities in the account in order to fulfill your wish that they be stored and in order to be able to make the shopping cart or watch list available to you at the next login; in this way, we can offer you a simple option for ordering a variety of goods at the right time Art. 6 (1)(b) and (f) GDPR). The shopping cart remains stored until the order is placed, but for no longer than two years after the last change. The watch and comparison lists also remain stored for a maximum of two years after the last change, but are only relatable to your browser until you delete cookies or switch the browser or device.

If we display prices to you, we will use your data to identify individual prices, minimum order amounts and free delivery limits from our database that apply to you and make it possible for you to order on these terms (Art. 6 (1)(a) and (b) GDPR).

Data needed for the delivery is queried as part of the ordering process (Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR). At first, this data is cached only briefly on our servers in order to make a multi-step sequence possible and then stored long-term only when you submit the order. In addition, we will also enter data into the database which you submit by fax or telephone and treat it like data from an online order. The data stored for order and service processing, for displaying order tracking and a history in your account, for facilitating subsequent orders and for satisfying legal retention requirements (Art. 6 (1)(b) and (f) (GDPR).

To process the order (Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR), it may be necessary to share your personal data and data arising from the order with enterprises which we engage for contract processing. This may, for example, be Stripe (Stripe Payments Europe, Limited) as a transaction service provider for payment processing or a logistics partner for shipment of the goods to you. Only necessary data is shared.

In addition, we use your name and address data to conduct a credit check manually, depending on the project. The credit check is not performed based on an automated individual decision of the shop system, but primarily on WAGO’s behalf through Verband der Vereine Creditreform e. V. (Hellersbergstraße 12, 41460 Neuss, Germany), Creditreform Hof (Thomasstr. 32, 95028 Hof, Germany) and in rare cases additionally through Bisnode Deutschland GmbH (Robert-Bosch-Straße 11, 64293 Darmstadt, Germany). These credit agencies will use your data to check whether you are already listed in the database of the credit agencies and existing data, such as about earlier payment defaults or ongoing contracts, is ascribable to you. In this way, we receive information about your previous payment history and credit information. We use the information from the credit agencies to protect us against possible payment defaults and to prevent attempted fraud, which is our overriding legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR. We store the data for the duration of the business relationship and delete it as soon as it is no longer required for this purpose, unless there are legal retention obligations to prevent this.

For further information on data processing by the credit agencies, their contact data and rights to information, please refer to the respective data protection information of the credit agencies mentioned.

When the contact form is used, the information listed there is transmitted to us and stored because of our legitimate interests in speed as well as optimization of our online offering and customer service. We use the data exclusively for replying to your inquiry and, if the inquiry should relate to a contractual relationship, or a contractual relationship arise therefrom, for initiating and handling the contractual relationship (Art. 6 (1)(a), (b) and (f) GDPR). If you are already our customer or will be in the future, we may collect, save, modify and transmit the data for the establishment, execution or termination of the contractual relationship without the need for your consent and for as long as the law permits us to do so.

In other cases – including while the contractual relationship has not yet come into being – we store your data no longer than two years, or longer if the law requires this of us. You have a right to object, with future effect, regarding data transmitted to us through the contact form. You exercise your right of revocation through a communication to us.

If you have subscribed to our newsletter with your email address, we also use your email address beyond account management for our own advertising purposes, as specified in further detail during the newsletter subscription process, until you unsubscribe from the newsletter (withdrawal option, Art. 6(1)(a) and (b) GDPR). If no other advertising purposes are specified, our newsletter will only contain our company information about product highlights, new products, product updates and services, as well as special offers and contests from WAGO, up-to-date WAGO corporate information and event dates. By subscribing to our newsletter, you consent to receive it and to the described processes.
 

Platform Used: HubSpot

We use the cloud-based HubSpot platform for email marketing, Web analytics and contact management (HubSpot Germany GmbH, Am Postbahnhof 17, 10243 Berlin). HubSpot supports us in sending, personalizing and analyzing marketing content, as well as tracking user behavior on our website.

Tracking Code & Web Analytics

On our website, we use the HubSpot tracking code to track visitor interactions and optimize marketing processes. If you consent to the use of cookies and tracking technologies, the following personal data is processed:

Technical access data:

• IP address

• Geographical location (derived from your IP address)

• Device type (e.g., desktop, tablet, smartphone)

• Browser and operating system information

Behavior data on the website:

• Pageviews

• Pageview timestamp

• Dwell time on pages

• Button and link click behavior (call-to-action)

Source and campaign data:

• Origin of visitors (e.g., direct access, search engine, social media)

• UTM parameters from marketing campaigns

• Search terms (if transmitted)

Interaction data:

• Form entries (e.g., contact forms, newsletter subscription)

• Downloads (e.g., white papers, e-books)

• Use of chat functions and support offerings

Cookies & recognition:

• Cookie ID for unambiguous recognition of repeat visits

• Session data, visit counter

Marketing & conversion data:

• Association between leads and email campaigns or ads

• Conversion tracking (e.g., offer request, purchase agreement)

Tracking takes place only after you have expressly consented via the Consent Management on our website (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). The analyses help us better understand users’ behavior and tailor content specifically to their individual interests. Personalized profiling does not take place without your active consent.

Team-Based Access in HubSpot

To protect your data, we have implemented finely differentiated rights management in HubSpot; contacts and account data are automatically assigned to specific country teams based on stored sales organizations (Sales_Orgs / VKOrgs, e.g., Team DE, Team CH and Team US). Only employees with appropriate marketing authorization and team affiliation can access this data. This applies to access both to contacts and to shared marketing folders in HubSpot.

The statistical data collection also includes determining whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened, which links are clicked and whether the delivery of the emails was successful. In addition, the reading duration is recorded; this is only done on a target group basis. For technical reasons, it is possible to associate this information with the individual newsletter recipients, but it is neither our aim nor that of HubSpot to monitor individual users. Instead, the analyses help us discern the reading habits of our users and customize our content to them or send different content corresponding to our users’ interests.

We use a “double opt-in” process to document consent to receive the newsletter and prevent misuse of your data. Through this process, we ensure that the recipient actually wants to receive our newsletter. After subscribing, you receive an email in which you are asked to confirm your newsletter subscription. We will not send our newsletter to you until you confirm. The newsletter subscriptions are logged in order to document the subscription process in accordance with the legal requirements. This includes the storage of subscription and confirmation time, as well as the IP address. Changes in your stored data are also logged.

You can withdraw your consent to the receipt of our newsletter at any time. You can unsubscribe by clicking the link in the newsletter or by sending a written notice to WAGO GmbH & Co. KG, Digital: Newsletter Department, Hansastraße 27, 32423 Minden. In case of a written notice, we implement the cancellation within three (3) weeks of receipt.

Consent to the sending of email addresses is based on Art. 6(1)(a), Art. 7 GDPR and Sec. 7(2) No. 3 or (3) of the German Fair Trade Practices Act (UWG). Statistical data collection and analyses, as well as the logging of the subscription procedure, are performed on the basis of our legitimate interests under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our interest is directed towards the deployment of a user-friendly and secure newsletter system that serves our business interests, such as direct advertising, and meets user expectations. If we use your personal data for direct advertising, you may object to this at any time pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR by notifying us.

1. General

We offer you an application service in the form of a login area. You can register there and call up the application assistant, which will lead you through our application service. There you will have to give at least the following information about yourself: first name, last name, email address and user name. Other than that, you can supply all data about yourself that you feel is useful for the application.

When you submit an application or when we initiate a potential employment relationship, if applicable, we use your personal data to check the suitability of the application as well as to make personal contact with you (Art. 6 (1) (a) and (b) GDPR). Should the advertised position be outside the European Union, we will forward your personal data, as needed, to the corresponding country outside the EU (Art. 49 (1) (b) GDPR, if no adequacy decision exists for the country pursuant to Art. 45 (3) GDPR or appropriate safeguards are in place pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR).

In the event that your application cannot be considered at the moment, you have the option to manage your application data in the login area. We store and use your login data, as well as the data you have given, in order to provide you access, and management and application options (Art. 6 (1) (a) and (b) GDPR). In addition, when you submit new applications, we use the data from your earlier application for comparison (Art. 6 (1) (a) and (b) GDPR). We initiate the erasure process six (6) months after your last login. This begins with a notice to you about the imminent erasure, for which we use your email address (Art. 6 (1) (a) and (b) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent to the storage and processing of your application data at any time with future effect and, in addition, manage each individual application in the login area.

If you do not wish to consent to our online application service, you are welcome to send us an application by email or on paper with the same prospects. We will review this application only once (Art. 6 (1) (a) and (b) GDPR).

If we enter into an employment relationship with you, we will migrate your data from the application to the personnel file and store it for the duration of the employment relationship plus any additional statutory retention periods (Art. 6 (1) (a), (b) GDPR, § 26 (1) BDSG). Before execution of the employment contract, we will again inform you specifically of our use of data in the employment relationship.

2. Performance of management audit

We conduct management audits to check various leadership skills. For this purpose, we employ the services of the service provider Moldzio & Partner – Institut für Personalauswahl (Große Straße 21, 22926 Ahrensburg, Germany; “Moldzio & Partner”). We have carefully chosen and engaged this service provider pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR. For this purpose, we have concluded a commissioned data processing agreement which specifies the subject-matter and duration of the processing, the nature and purpose of the processing, the type of personal data, the categories of data subjects and the obligations and rights of the controller (pursuant to Art. 28 (3) GDPR).

As part of the selection process, it may be necessary to transmit all or parts of your application documents to Moldzio & Partner. This might be necessary to make the most accurate forecast as possible for the fit between the individual applicant and the vacant position.

The processing of your application documents by Moldzio & Partner is based on the verification of suitability and thus, for the initiation of a possible employment. The processing is carried out exclusively for diagnostic purposes. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.

If the service provider Moldzio & Partner conduct a management audit, we will inform you in advance (in text form). Afterwards, you will receive an invitation to the management audit from Moldzio & Partner, or eventually from us, with further information about the audit process.

You may object to the processing of your personal data at any time. To do so, simply send an informal message to jobs@wago.com.

Further information regarding the data protection regulations of Moldzio & Partner is available here: https://moldzio.com/datenschutz/.

3. Recruiting through XING TalentManager and XING TalentpoolManager

a) You maintain a XING profile.

If you have a XING profile, we use the XING TalentManager (XTM) and XING TalentpoolManager (XTP) to discover and contact you at XING as a potential new employee. XTM and XTP are products of New Work SE (Dammtorstraße 30, 20354 Hamburg, “XING).

We can search for candidates on XING and manage applications and profiles from XING members for our recruiting purposes. Our recruiting manager (“Recruiter”) is the only person to use and access XTM.

Inside the XTM, several of our recruiters can work together and exchange or share information (correspondence, conversations, projects, notes, commentary, etc.). This prevents us from approach applicants several times or losing important the important information about applicants.

When you specify WAGO in your user profile as preferred employer, we additionally process your profile in XTP. With XTP, it is possible for us to create ”Talent Pools” and use them to manage interesting XING members and maintain contact with them for future searches. We are informed about the talent pool’s relevant activities in XING and can use campaigns to easily keep in contact with candidates.

In XTM and XTP, we process all data disclosed by your XING profile, as well as additional information you might voluntarily relate in the context of a contact solicitation by our Recruiter. We do not save or copy your XING profile at this stage; instead, we create a link to your profile through a service offered by XING.

The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in the profession and career network XING, and in actively searching for suitable candidates for our company and contacting the users. We also have a legitimate interest in recording your profile if you have entered WAGO as desired employer.

We delete the link to your profile as soon as we determine that we would not contact you as potential candidate or as soon as you signal us that you have no interest in occupation in our company. If you delete your XING profile, your data is no longer visible in XTM or XTP; not even for us.

Further, you have the option of restricting the visibility of the data you entered in your XING profile. You can make the necessary settings under https://www.xing.com/settings/privacy.

Information about data processing in association with the e-Recruiting products is available in the XING privacy policy.

If you would like to retrieve the data kept by XING, you call this up yourself in the settings area of your XING profile, or contact New Work SE, Data Protection Officer, Dammtorstraße 30, 20354 Hamburg.

b) You do not maintain a XING profile.

If you do not have your own XING profile, you are only admitted in the XTM and/or XTP XTP account if you have voluntarily granted us your consent to do so. When the application process is finished (rejected application), we will inform you about the possibility for recording in the XTM or XTP, including further information about data protection and revocation options in transparent form. The legal basis for this collection is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

Of course, you may object to the processing of your personal data in both cases a) and b) at any time. To do so, just send a corresponding informal message to jobs@wago.com. After receiving your objection, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can verify compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of yourself and/or others, or the processing serves the assertion or exertion of, or defense against, legal claims.

For webinars we use the services of the provider Cisco Systems Inc. (170 West Tasman Dr., San Jose, CA 95134, USA; "Cisco"). We have entered into contractual arrangements with Cisco which ensure the privacy of our webinar participants. In provisioning the webinar and associated data processing, Cisco is the controller for the processing. You can find the privacy policy here: https://www.cisco.com/c/de_de/about/legal/privacy-full.html.

Your data is processed based on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). To participate in the webinars, it is required that you give at least the following information about yourself: first name, last name and email address. The following information is additionally required: company name and headquarters (street, number, postal code and town).

The webinars are regularly recorded in order to provide them on our website for later retrieval. In order to avoid recording the real name of the participants, questions posed by participants during the seminar are not recorded. However, the orally repeated questions and the associated responses are recorded and provisioned for later access. However, the questions are reproduced orally only in anonymous form, disallowing any identification of the participants.

If you attend a webinar, you receive additional information on the event in a suitable manner with the registration for attendance and, where applicable, after the end of the webinar. This information might, for example, be an event reminder, the webinar recording or also customer satisfaction surveys on the webinar (Art. 6 (1) (b), (f) GDPR).

If, along with registering for a webinar, you have also registered for our newsletter, we will also use your email address beyond account management. However, this only applies to our own advertising purposes, which are described in detail in the newsletter registration, until you cancel your newsletter subscription (objection option, Art. 6 1(a) and (b) GDPR). The regulations under Chapter V, “Collection, Storage and Utilization of Usage Data when Visiting our Website with Registration and after Login” and Section 5, “Email Newsletter and Other Direct Advertising.”

We collect, save, process and use your personal data when, to the extent that and for as long as required for the potential initiation, justification, transaction or termination of a contractual relationship. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.

Beyond this, personal data are collected, saved, processed and used only if a legal provision mandates or permits it or you have given your consent. We will inform you of the applicable legal provisions at a separate location.

Within the scope of the initiation of business relationships and within the limits of what is legally permissible, we are entitled to check the supplier‘s risk of payment default, for the purpose of deciding about the justification, transaction or termination of a sales contract.

In this regard, probability values for the customer‘s future actions are collected and processed. Supplier address data and credit data from credit agencies are also used in calculating these probability data.

For this check, it is possible that services from credit agencies or other thirds are claimed; to serve this purpose, data from you is conveyed to them or requested by them.

Data are collected, processed and used for this purpose on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) and (c) GDPR.

Within this legal context, we are also entitled to convey the supplier data to thirds, if and to the extent that such is necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures and fulfillment of this contract (e.g., for dispatch, invoicing or customer maintenance) per Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR or fulfilling a legal obligation in the sense of Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR is required. In required cases – to the extent that is legally permissible – we will forward this data to thirds; e.g., debt collection agencies; under some circumstances, also for the purpose of debt collection in accord with Art. 6 (1) (b) and/or (f) GDPR.

If you would like to download information („Downloads”) via our website or the WAGO Download Center, prior registration is required. For registration, your personal data (title, first name, last name and email address) as well as company data (company name, street name/house number, postal code, city and country) are processed. This data is required to prevent unauthorized access attempts, to enable a clear assignment, to carry out sanction lists checks and to protect us from fraud attempts (Art. 6 para. 1 a), c) and f) GDPR). You also have the opportunity to share further optional information about yourself and/or your company with us.

In addition, we collect, store, process and use your personal data, in particular, if, to the extent and for as long as this is required for the potential initiation, justification, implementation or termination of a contractual relationship.

• To ensure that our website and the contents it contains is presented to you in the most effective and interesting way possible;

• To fulfill our obligations under any contracts concluded between you and us;

Any further collection, storage, processing and use of personal data will only take place if this is required or permitted by law or if you have given your consent. We will inform you of the applicable legal basis for this separately. In other cases, i.e. as long as the contractual relationship has not yet been established, we do not store your data for longer than two (2) years, or for longer if the law requires it of us.

In order to process the sanctions list check (Art. 6 para. 1 c) GDPR) it may be necessary to share your data and data from the registration with companies that we use for the execution of the sanctions list check. In these cases, we only work with service providers that we have contractually obligated to comply with data protection requirements or that are already obligated to comply with data protection requirements based on legal requirements. In both cases, only necessary data is passed on.

We use Cloudsmith Ltd (Scottish Provident Building, 7 Donegall Square West, Belfast, BT1 6JH “Cloudsmith”) as a service provider. The necessary data for the sanctions list check is transmitted to Cloudsmith at the beginning of a download. This is necessary to carry out the sanctions list check and to protect us from fraud attempts.

As part of the download, technical information such as information about the browser and your system, the end device used and your IP address, the number of downloads per artifact and the time of the download are initially collected. This information is used for technical improvement of the services on the basis of the technical data or the target groups and their download behavior on the basis of their retrieval locations (which can be determined using the IP address) or the access times. Personal evaluations are not carried out. For example, we will not contact you based on your download behavior without your consent or other legal basis.

If you wish to access APIs (programming interfaces) via our API Developer Portal, prior registration for the API Developer Portal is required. For the registration, your personal data (title, first name, last name and e-mail address) as well as company data (company name, street/house number, postcode, city and country) and the desired purpose of use of the APIs are processed. This data is necessary to prevent unauthorised access attempts, to enable a clear assignment and to protect us against fraud attempts (Art. 6 para. 1 a) and f) GDPR).

In addition, your personal data will be collected, stored, processed and used by us in particular if, to the extent and for as long as this is necessary for the potential initiation, the establishment, the performance or the termination of a contractual relationship. Thus, we may collect, store, modify and transmit the data for the purpose of establishing, implementing or terminating the contractual relationship without requiring your consent and as long as we are permitted to do so by law. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 b) GDPR.

Thus, we use your personal data in particular for the following purposes:

• To enable access to WAGO APIs via the API Developer Portal;

• To ensure that the API Developer Portal and the content therein is presented to you in the most effective and interesting way possible;

• To comply with our obligations under any contracts entered into between you and us.

Further collection, storage, processing and use of personal data will only take place if required or permitted by law, or if you have consented to it. We will inform you of the applicable legal basis at a separate point.

In other cases, i.e. also as long as the contractual relationship has not yet come into being, we will store your data for no longer than two (2) years, or longer if the law requires us to do so.

We use the service “Friendly Captcha” on our website. For this purpose, we work together with the supplier Friendly Captcha GmbH (Am Anger 3-5, 82237 Wörthsee, Germany). We have carefully chosen and engaged this supplier pursuant to art. 28 GDPR. Friendly Captcha is a system to make it more difficult to use websites through automated programs and scripts (so-called ”bots”). For this purpose, we have integrated a Friendly Captcha widget into all forms on our website (e.g., contact forms and registration pages), so that your device can establish a connection to the Friendly Captcha servers in order to receive a computing task from Friendly Captcha. Your device solves this calculation task and sends the results to our web server. The web server contacts the Friendly Captcha server via an interface and receives an answer to whether the devices has solved the calculation task correctly. Depending on the result, we provide requests with security rules for our website, and thus, for example, process or reject them.

By using Friendly Captcha we can distinguish whether the entered data was entered by a natural person or by a bot.

Friendly Captcha does not set or read out any cookies on your device. IP addresses are only stored in hashed (one-way encrypted) form and do not allow us and Friendly Captcha to draw conclusions about an individual person. If personal data is collected, it will be deleted after 30 days at the latest.

The legal basis for the processing is our legitimate interest in protecting our website from improper access by bots, i.e., spam protection and protection against attacks (e.g., mass requests) (Art. 6 para. 1 f) GDPR). You have the right to object to the transmitted data with effect for the future. You exercise your right of revocation by notifying us (dataprotection@wago.com).

Further information on data protection at Friendly Captcha is available here: https://friendlycaptcha.com/legal/privacy-end-users/
