All data processing is carried out in accordance with legal regulations. The following declaration gives you an overview of what kind of data is collected, how this data is used and passed on, what security measures we take to protect your data and how you obtain information about the information given to us.

Section 1 Collection and Storage of Personal Data

NORD Gear Corporation is responsible for the processing of your data.

The log data mentioned are only analyzed anonymized.

Additional personal information is only recorded if you provide it to us voluntarily, for example during an enquiry, registration or when signing a contract.

On receipt of your application documents, we will inform you about the personal data we store in accordance with the requirements of Article 13 GDPR.

Section 2 Use, Disclosure and Deletion of Personal Data

We use the personal data you provide to answer inquiries, process orders, check creditworthiness, and for the purpose of technical administration of the websites according to Art. 6 (1) (b) and (f) GDPR.

Your personal data will only be passed on to third parties if it is necessary for the purpose of the contract, for billing purposes, or for collecting fees if you have expressly consented to this, Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. It may also be necessary for us to pass on order data to suppliers when delivery is made directly and our suppliers only receive the information necessary to fulfill their respective tasks. Any other use of the information is not permitted. We are also authorized to pass on personal data to financial service providers or for debt collection purposes. These persons only receive the information which is necessary for them to perform their relevant tasks. If we make advance payments in connection with an order (for example, when purchasing on an account), we can only have the identity and creditworthiness of customers checked by a service provider. If we use service providers for data processing, that data is processed on the basis of a contract processing agreement that complies with the requirements of Art. 28 GDPR.

Additionally, NORD is authorized to provide information on data in individual cases by order of the competent authority and as necessary for the purposes of criminal prosecution, to avert danger by the police authorities of the federal states, to fulfill the legal tasks of the Federal and State Office for the Protection of the Constitution, the Federal Intelligence Service, or the Military Counter-Intelligence Service, or to enforce intellectual property rights.

Section 3 Security information

We have taken a variety of security measures to adequately protect personal information.

Our databases are protected by physical, technical, and procedural measures that restrict access to the information to specially authorized persons in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Our information system is located behind a software firewall to prevent access from other networks connected to the Internet. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific task are permitted access to personal information. Our employees are trained in security and privacy practices.

If personal information is collected via our Internet pages, transmission is encrypted using the industry standard Transport Layer Security (“SSL/TLS”) technology. Sensitive information, such as credit card numbers or account information, is further encrypted for additional protection.

(Never give your myNORD online customer portal password to third parties. If you suspect unauthorized access to your account or are worried that your password may have been compromised, change it immediately. When you leave our website, you should log out and close your browser to prevent unauthorized users from accessing your account. We cannot guarantee complete data security for communications made by e-mail.)

Google Display & Video 360 (Formerly Doubleclick Bid Manager)

On this website we use the tool Display & Video 360 by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, which records data for analysis, marketing and optimisation purposes and therefore helps us to improve our marketing measures and our website. The data which is recorded is used by Display & Video 360 to link clicks on advertisements with the resulting use of our website. In this way we can determine whether internet users who have seen our advertisements visit our website and if so, the products which they are interested in. This helps us to utilize our advertising budget more efficiently. We can also use the recorded data to provide advertising on the basis of your interests (e.g. products viewed).

Online identification number pseudonyms (e.g. cookie IDs or IP addresses) are used to record the data. For this, no identifiable user-related data such as names or addresses are saved. All of the IDs which we use are only used to identify your terminal device and your internet browser. Without your separate agreement, the recorded data will not be used to personally identify you as a user of our website.

We must point out that for users who are registered with Google, Google may have the possibility of linking the user to their visit to this website. You can find out exactly how Google processes this data by clicking on the Google privacy pages under the following link:

The legal basis for processing is your consent, if you have given this.

You can change or withdraw your consent here or here.

Campaign Manager (Previously DoubleClick by Google)

This website uses the online marketing tool “Campaign Manager” by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94042, United States. Campaign Manager uses cookies to place advertising relevant to the user, to improve reports on campaign performance or to prevent users from seeing the same advertisement several times. A cookie records which advertisements are placed in which browser and thus prevents them from being displayed several times. In addition, with the aid of cookie IDs Campaign Manager can record so-called conversions, which are related to advertisement enquiries. This is the case if a user views a Campaign Manager advertisement and opens the website using the same browser and purchases something there. According to Google, Campaign Manager cookies do not contain any personal information.

Due to the marketing tools which are used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection to Google. To prevent your data from being transmitted directly to Google Inc., we use Zaraz, a website management tool. Regarding the functionality and the processing of your data, we refer to the entry for Zaraz in this data protection declaration.

Furthermore, the Campaign Manager (DoubleClick Floodlight) cookies enable us to understand whether you perform certain actions on our website after you have opened one of our display/video advertisements on Google or on another platform via Campaign Manager or have clicked on these (conversion tracking). Campaign Manager uses this cookie to identify the content with which you have interacted on our websites in order to send you targeted advertising at a later date. Further information on Google data protection is available here.

The legal basis for processing is your consent in accordance with article 6 (1a) GDPR. You can change your consent here or withdraw your consent here.

If the data within this context is to be processed outside the EU or the EEA, please note that there is the risk that authorities access the data for security and monitoring purposes without informing you or giving you legal redress. If we utilize providers in unsafe third countries, the transmission to a third country is based on your consent in accordance with article 49 (1a) GDPR.

Captcha

To protect our web forms against automatic queries we use a so-called “Captcha” by der Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94042, United States. In the context of this Captcha function, you will be asked to solve tasks or to click checkboxes. The user inputs and possibly the mouse movements made in this context will be used to estimate if the input comes from a human being or from an automated program. The embedding takes place based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR and in the interest of protection from spam and misuse. If you do not want this data processing, please refrain from using our web forms.

Cloudflare

For the purpose of tracking faults, preventing misuse and detecting attacks concerning our website we process your IP address and the times when you open our websites. To this end we use the service provider Cloudflare (Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA). In the process the data transfer between your browser and our servers is analysed by Cloudflare whilst Cloudflare uses cookies to enable you to access our website. This processing is within our justified interest in accordance with article 6 (1f) GDPR.

Our justified interest consists in ensuring the functionality and security of our systems for visitors.

Zaraz

This website uses the website management tool Zaraz from Cloudflare (Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA). Zaraz is a cloud platform for managing website settings. Website content – including Google scripts and other third-party tools – is stored on Zaraz cloud servers and distributed to users via these servers. Content is no longer loaded directly from third-party providers, so that they no longer receive any information about website visitors. There is only a data exchange between the user and the Zaraz servers. This increases the security of user data.

Cloudflare maintains log data about events taking place on our network. Some of this log data includes information about visitors and/or authorized users of domains, networks, websites, or application interfaces (“APIs”). This metadata contains extremely limited personally identifiable information, mostly in the form of IP addresses. Cloudflare processes this data – bound by instructions – in the main data centers in the USA and Europe for a limited period of time.

A data processing agreement (DPA) has been concluded with Cloudflare Inc. in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. The service provider is strictly bound by instructions and processes your data only within the framework of the service contract.

This processing is within our justified interest in accordance with article 6 (1f) GDPR.

Our justified interest consists in improving the quality of our content through a functional website management and thus making our website more pleasant for visitors to use.

If the data is processed outside the EU or the EEA, please note that standard contractual clauses have been concluded with Cloudflare Inc. in accordance with Article 46 (2c) GDPR. However, there is still a residual risk that authorities will access the data for security and surveillance purposes without informing you or giving you legal redress.

Cookiebot

To be able to use a functional cookie consent tool, we use the service Cookiebot by the provider Cybot A/S, Havnegade 39, 1058 Copenhagen.

Cookies are placed based on your consent in accordance with article 6 (1a) GDPR. Further information on Cookiebot can be found here.

Google Ads Conversion and Remarketing

The information saved by the cookie about your use of our website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and is stored there. However, due to the activation of IP anonymization on our website, Google will shorten your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases the full IP address will be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and will be shortened there. Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of our website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with other services relating to the website and internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser, however, please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of our website Furthermore, you may prevent Google from recording and processing data relating to the use of our website in the cookie (including your IP address) by clicking on the link Disable Google Analytics.

If we utilize providers in unsafe third countries, the transmission to a third country is based on your consent in accordance with article 49 (1a) GDPR.

Google DoubleClick

To allow the placement of relevant advertisements for visitors of our website, we use the online marketing tool “DoubleClick” by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94042, United States. A cookie ID can record which advertisements are placed in which browser and the ID prevents the multiple placements of the same ad. It also allows recording whether an advertisement has been placed and whether via the same browser the website of the advertiser was later opened or something was bought there. With the DoubleClick tool your browser establishes an automatic connection to the Google server and can – if you are registered with a Google service – assign the visit to your account. To prevent your data from being transmitted directly to Google Inc., we use Zaraz, a website management tool. Regarding the functionality and the processing of your data, we refer to the entry for Zaraz in this data protection declaration. You can disable cookies for conversion tracking. Further information about this is available in the Google data protection declaration. The legal basis for the processing in the case of your consent is article 6 (1a) GDPR.

Google Maps

On our websites we embed map services by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94042, United States which are not stored on our servers. To prevent the opening of our websites with embedded map services from automatically reloading content of the third party provider, we only display the locally stored thumbnails of the maps as a first step. This does not provide the third-party provider with any information.

Only after clicking on the thumbnail is the content of the third-party provider reloaded. The third-party provider then receives information that you have opened our website and the usage data technically required in this context. We have no influence on the further data processing by the third party provider. By clicking on the thumbnail you grant us consent to reload the content of the third party provider. Embedding is based on your consent if you have previously granted your consent by clicking on the thumbnail, article 6 (1a) GDPR.

Please note that the embedding of several map services results in your data being processed outside the EU or the EEA. In some countries there is the risk that authorities access your data for security and monitoring purposes without you being informed or being given legal redress.

However, Google Tag Manager does not access these data. If tracking tacks have been disabled on domain or cookie level this applies for all tags being implemented via Google Tag Manager.

Tag Manager is used by us to manage the tools and external services we use on our website and permits the use of so-called tags. A tag is an element of code stored in the source text of the website to, for example, control which pages or service elements and tools are enabled and loaded in which order. The tool provides for the triggering of other tags which in turn might collect data and which are further explained in this data protection declaration.
