The protection of your data is important to us. We, Weiss Robotics GmbH & Co. KG, are delighted that you have taken an interest in our company and our products. We want you to feel secure when visiting our website, including with regard to the protection of your personal data. We take the protection of your personal data very seriously. Compliance with the relevant provisions of data protection law, in particular the Federal Data Protection Act and the Telemedia Act, is a matter of course for us.
In this privacy policy, we would like to explain what personal data we collect from you when you use our website and how we process this data.
1. Collection, processing and use of personal data
a) What is personal data
Personal data is information that can be linked to a specific individual and enables that individual to be identified. This includes, for example, details such as names, addresses, telephone numbers and email addresses. Information that cannot be linked to a specific individual, or can only be linked with a disproportionately high degree of effort, is not included in this definition.
b) Collection, processing and use of your personal data
It is generally possible to use our website without providing personal data. Where personal data (such as names, addresses or email addresses) is collected on our website, this is always done on a voluntary basis wherever possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent.
Your personal data is collected, processed and used when you use our contact form. If you send us enquiries or request information via the contact form, the details you provide in the enquiry form – including the contact details you have entered there – will be stored by us for the purpose of processing your enquiry and in the event of any follow-up questions.
2. Information about your computer, cookies
a) Server log files
When you visit our website, information is collected and stored in so-called server log files as a result of the system’s operation; this information is automatically transmitted to us by your browser. This includes:
- Browser type/browser version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Host name of the accessing computer
- Time of the server request
This data cannot be linked to specific individuals. This data is not combined with other data sources. We reserve the right to review this data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of unlawful use.
b) Cookies
Some of the web pages on this site use so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.
Most of the cookies we use are so-called ‘session cookies’. They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser the next time you visit.
You can configure your browser so that you are notified when cookies are set and can choose to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, block the acceptance of cookies in specific cases or generally, and enable the automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. If you disable cookies, the functionality of this website may be restricted.
c) Matomo
Our website uses Matomo, an open-source analytics tool for compiling statistics on the use of our website. Matomo uses so-called cookies, which are text files stored on your computer that enable an analysis of your use of our website. The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of our website (including your IP address) is transmitted to our own servers and stored there. The information obtained in this way is used exclusively to improve our website. Your IP address is anonymised and cannot be traced back to you. No data is passed on to third parties. The cookie used by Matomo is a session cookie, which means that it remains valid only whilst you are on our website and your browser session is open. You can prevent the use of cookies by adjusting the settings in your web browser accordingly. In this case, however, you may not be able to make full use of all the features of this website. Alternatively, you can opt out of Matomo tracking your visit to our website by clicking on the Matomo opt-out cookie via the link below.
Here, you can choose whether a unique web analytics cookie may be stored in your browser to enable the website operator to collect and analyse various statistical data. If you wish to opt out, click the following link to set the Matomo opt-out cookie in your browser.
If you click on this Matomo deactivation cookie, your objection will be stored in the form of an opt-out cookie. However, this means that, for example, after deleting all cookies (on your PC), you will need to opt out again. We expressly draw your attention to this, as for this reason an objection once set is only valid for as long as the opt-out cookie remains on your computer. We therefore recommend that – if you wish to object – you do so on every visit to our site.
d) Cloudflare Turnstile
To protect our forms from spam, we use ‘Turnstile’ from Cloudflare, Inc., USA. The service checks whether the entries have been made by a human. Your IP address and technical characteristics of your browser are transmitted in this process, but not the content of your form entries. No cookies are set; for the duration of the check, only a technical value is stored in your browser’s local storage. Further information can be found at www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/.
3. Data security
We take appropriate technical security measures to protect the data you entrust to us against loss, destruction, disclosure and unauthorised access, and we continually adapt these measures in line with technical developments. However, we would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities.
4. Links to third-party websites
We provide links to websites operated by other providers (third parties) with whom we have no affiliation. Please note that we have no control over what data these providers may collect and process when you click on these links. As the collection and processing of data by third parties is beyond our control, we cannot accept any responsibility for this. For further information on the collection and processing of your data by these third parties, please refer to the privacy policy of the respective provider.
5. Consent, right of withdrawal and right to object
Where we use your personal data for a purpose that requires your consent under the law, we will always ask for your explicit consent and record your consent in accordance with data protection regulations. You may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. To withdraw your consent, simply send us a message. You may use the contact details provided below (under point 8) for this purpose.
6. Access, rectification and erasure of your data
You have the right at any time to obtain, free of charge, information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, as well as the right to have this data rectified, restricted or erased. For this and any further questions regarding personal data, you may contact us at any time at the address given below (under Section 8).
7. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We will revise our guidelines on the protection of your personal data from time to time to bring them into line with the latest technical developments or changes in the regulatory environment. We therefore recommend that you check this page regularly for any changes.
