You can generally use our website without entering any personal data. You are neither obliged to access this website nor to enter any personal data whilst doing so. Failure to provide us with personal data may result in you being unable to use individual functions on this website. There are no other consequences to you. Any personal data collected on our website (such as name, address or e-mail addresses) is collected on a voluntary basis, except in explicitly stated circumstances. This data is not transferred to third parties without your explicit consent. We would like to make you aware that data transfer via the Internet (e.g. during e-mail communications) may be subject to security loopholes. It is impossible to provide seamless data protection against third-party access.

If the processing of your data is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, resulting in the processing of your personal data becoming impermissible, with the exception of such data processing activities that Blohm Jung GmbH (BLOHM JUNG) must perform by law.

If you contact us through the contact form, we store your information (particularly your name and title, contact details, company, country and message) and process it in order to deal with your enquiry. The same applies if you request information materials from us. If you optionally provide us with your telephone number, we may call you to discuss your project and pass you onto the right contact person.

We may transfer your details to other UNITED GRINDING Group companies (e.g. if your enquiry relates to an agreement or customer relationship with another UNITED GRINDING Group company or its products) if this is necessary in order to respond to your enquiry or if your enquiry is targeted at such a company.

Depending on the subject of your enquiry, the legal basis for these data processing activities is the permissibility within the scope of the contractual negotiations, an agreement or our justified interest in the provision of a contact form for general enquiries and/or the provision of information materials (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR) or your consent (Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR).

If you give your consent to receive information about the latest products and services from UNITED GRINDING Group and its subsidiaries via e-mail, these companies will e-mail this information to you.

Our website contains embedded videos that are provided by YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Avenue, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA, represented by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. We have embedded YouTube videos with YouTube’s “Privacy-Enhanced Mode”. This prevents YouTube from processing data on your visit or installing cookies on your computer if you merely access a page containing an embedded video. If you click a video, your IP address is transferred to YouTube and YouTube is notified that you have watched the video. If you are logged into YouTube, this information is also allocated to your user account (you can prevent this by logging out of YouTube before accessing the video). We do not have any knowledge about nor influence over the possible collection and use of your data by YouTube when you access a video. For further information, you can read YouTube’s data privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy .

 

Your personal data is only transferred to third parties if it is based on a legal authorization or your prior consent. For example, we may transfer data to other UNITED GRINDING Group companies if this is required for responding to your enquiry. We only transfer your data to government agencies if we are obliged to do so by law or due to an official decree or court ruling.

 

The data collected by Google Analytics in the form of pseudonymized user profiles (section 6) is deleted no later than 38 months from the last entry in the respective user profile. In all other cases, we delete your personal data as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose of its collection and processing and we are not obliged by law to retain it for certain periods of time.

 

The UNITED GRINDING Group has implemented technical and organizational measures to protect the personal data provided by you against loss, destruction, manipulation and unauthorized access. Our employees and all persons involved in the data processing activities have been obliged to comply with all laws relevant to data protection and confidentiality when handling your personal data.

To protect the personal data of our users, we use a secure online transfer method called "Secure Socket Layer" (SSL). You can recognize it by an “s” being added to the http:// part of the address ("https://") and/or a green, closed lock symbol being displayed. You can find out more about the SSL certificate used by clicking on the symbol. The display of the symbol depends on your browser version. SSL encryption ensures that all of your data is transferred in encrypted form.

Data protection law gives you a number of rights with regard to your personal data (data subject rights). They include the right to request information on your personal data stored with us as well as the right to correction, deletion, restriction and portability of the processing of this data and objection to its processing. The law stipulates if and insofar as these rights exist in individual cases as well as the applicable terms and conditions. If you have consented to the processing of your personal data, you can withdraw this consent at any time. You further have the right to complain to the competent data protection supervisory authority.
