WEBSITE PRIVACY POLICY

1. Purposes and principles of data processing.In compliance with the obligations set out in articles 13-14 of Regulation (EU) 679/2016 on privacy (GDPR), this document describes how to manage the website with regard to the processing of personal data of users who surf and interact with the web services accessible at: www.wuerth-phoenix.com.

We inform you that Würth Phoenix S.r.l. will use your personal data to manage access to the portal and the services included therein, manage technical practices, carry out all the activities necessary or useful for the constant improvement of the provided service, and for determining the liability in the event of offences against the Site and/or offences committed through the Site. Specific further purposes relating to individual processing can be identified in detail, through additional information notices, within the various services included in the portal.

The consultation of the Site may involve the processing of data relating to identified or identifiable persons. The personal data provided by users who consult the Site are processed by the recipient of the communication in order to follow up the requests received.

Web surfing data

IT systems and software procedures for the operation of this website acquire, during their normal operation, certain personal data whose transmission is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols.

This information is not collected to be associated with identified data subjects but by their very nature could allow users to be identified through processing and associations with data held by third parties. This category of data includes IP addresses or domain names of computers of users who connect to the site, addresses in URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) notation of the resources requested, the time of the request, the method used to submit the request to the server, the size of the file obtained in reply, the number code indicating the status of the response from the server (successful, error, etc..) and other parameters relating to the user’s operating system and IT environment. These data are used for the sole purpose of obtaining anonymous statistical information on the use of the site, making the features of the site technically possible, checking its correct operation and ensure the maintenance of its database.  In these cases, the web surfing data do not allow the users concerned to be identified and are deleted immediately after being processed anonymously.

The web surfing data can also be used to determine the liability in the event of offences against the website or carried out through the Site.

Data supplied by the user

This means:

• information sent by users on an optional and voluntary basis to the addresses indicated on the Site (e.g. e-mail address, subject of e-mail, name or business name, first name and surname, etc.);
• personal data supplied by users in order to use services accessible on the Site or to take part in initiatives promoted through the Site;
• personal data supplied by users who forward requests for information and/or information material;
• personal data supplied by users submitting proposals for applications (curriculum vitae, etc.).

The processing involves data acquisition (e.g. the collection of the e-mail address of the sender – in order to respond to his/her requests – and any other personal data entered) and other operations.

The processing will be carried out, with or without the help of electronic instruments, according to principles of fairness, lawfulness and transparency so as to protect at all times the confidentiality and rights of the data subject, in accordance with the regulations in force.

The purposes of the processing are to respond to any requests from the user relating to the sending of information material (bulletins, newsletters, mailing lists, replies to questions, notices, acts and measures, other documents, etc.) or to perform the service requested by the user, and are communicated to third parties only in the event that this is necessary for the fulfilment of the aforementioned requests or for the fulfilment of obligations envisaged by the regulations in force in relation to the Controller of the Site.

After the termination of any contractual relation established between the Controller and the data subject, personal data will also be processed to fulfil all legal obligations related to or arising from the terminated relation.

In such cases, consent to the processing is optional and failure to consent may therefore make it impossible for the user to obtain the requested information from the Controller of the site or the requested service.

2. With specific consent (please refer to a special online and/or paper form), the data collected will also be used by us for commercial and promotional purposes, for marketing activities, for sending promotional material and for carrying out market surveys, through all means of communication (mail, e-mail, telephone, SMS, mms, social networks, etc.). Such consent is always optional, and any failure to consent will not result in the user being unable to use any of the requested services but simply the impossibility for the Site provider to use the data for these particular purposes.
3. Subjects who process data. The data collected are processed by persons in charge within Würth Phoenix S.r.l. who need to know of them in the carrying-out of their activities (e.g. sales office, marketing office, administrative office, call centre, technical staff for the maintenance of the company IT system, etc.).

Moreover, in compliance with the provisions in force, the data may be communicated to factoring companies, debt collection companies, credit insurance companies, commercial information companies, distribution companies for the performance of its activities (e.g.: order management, activation contracts, after-sales service), transport companies, credit institutions for the management of collections and payments, third parties responsible for carrying out activities related to and instrumental to this processing (such as debt collection companies, credit insurance companies, lawyers and law firms, chartered accountants, accountants, auditors and auditing firms, members of the supervisory body pursuant to Italian Legislative Decree 231/2001, statutory auditors, or third parties appointed to carry out maintenance services for IT systems and/or electronic files related to the site). In the sole case of any processing carried out for direct marketing, profiling or retention purposes, the data – prior to your consent (on which see the specific different section of this information notice) – may also be communicated to advertising agencies, web marketing companies, consultants and professionals to whom Würth Phoenix S.r.l. entrusts activities functional to the pursuit of these purposes. The data are also communicated to authorities and public administrations in fulfilment of legal obligations. These third parties will process the data as external data processors or autonomous data controllers.

The data will not be disseminated.

4. The logic and forms of organisation of processing will be closely related to the individual purposes indicated above, respectively. Processing will take place electronically, telematically and/or on paper. The data during processing are subject to protective measures activated by Würth Phoenix S.r.l. in order to protect the data against the risk of unauthorised access or processing. For example, personal data managed electronically can be accessed only by accessing various processing or data entry programmes, through the input of mandatory personal passwords, only by personnel authorised by Würth Phoenix S.r.l. who must, however, comply with predetermined limits of use.

The persons in charge within the company belong to the homogeneous functional areas of the company that need to process the data for the purposes indicated in this information notice, such as the administration office, the human resources office, the IT maintenance office, the marketing office, etc.

Würth Phoenix S.r.l. has also appointed as data processors all the categories of external subjects to whom the Company must communicate the data for the above purposes (when such external subjects do not assume the direct role of autonomous controllers by reason of their management autonomy with regard to the processing entrusted to them). An up-to-date list of controllers can be consulted at the request of the data subject.

5. Personal data are usually processed for the entire duration of the contractual relation established with the data subject, and, subsequently, for the only period necessary for the fulfilment of our legal obligations (10 years). After the termination of the contractual relation that may have been established between the Controller and the data subject, personal data will also be processed to fulfil all legal obligations related to the termination of the contractual relation. The data will be kept no longer than is necessary to fulfil the aforementioned obligations, tasks or purposes and to prove their fulfilment to the supervisory authorities (normally for 10 years after the termination of the contract), and will then be destroyed. Some data (e.g. name and surname, company name, VAT number, tax code, e-mail, telephone number, mobile phone, fax number, certified e-mail, address of registered office, names of internal contact persons, etc.) are kept even after the aforementioned ten-year term, as long as they are useful to satisfy the legitimate interest of the Controller in rationalising selection and commercial contacts with users, customers and/or suppliers. Conversely, where personal data are processed for purposes of IT security (e.g. logs), the data will be retained for a period of time sufficient to complete the relevant security checks and evaluate their results; normally a maximum of 1 year from the time of collection. In case of out-of-court or in court cases with the data subject and/or with third parties, the data will be processed for all the time strictly necessary to exercise the full protection of the rights of the Controller.

The duration of retention of data collected through cookies is explained in the “Cookie Policy” section below.

6. The legal basis for the processing is, as the case may be, Article 6, letter a), of Regulation (EU) No. 679/2016 or “GDPR”, (the data subject has given his/her free and informed consent to the processing for a given purpose and has not subsequently revoked his/her consent), Article 6 let. b) GDPR (it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party or for the performance of pre-contractual measures taken at the data subject’s request, e.g. requests for information or commercial offers), Article 6 let. c) GDPR (it is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the data controller is subject) and/or Article 6, let. f) GDPR (it is necessary for the legitimate interests of the data controller or of a third party to be pursued, overriding the interests or fundamental rights of the data subject). In particular, the legitimate interest of the controller is to i) be able to process the data in order to effectively and efficiently manage the relation with its users, customers and/or suppliers and to organise the related internal organisational and management processes and ii), in the case of processing for profiling, direct marketing and retention purposes, to promote its products and/or services to target customers through offline and online methods. On the other hand, the legitimate interest of third parties is to receive personal data from the Controller and process them for the purposes of verifying the correct fulfilment of legal and contractual obligations with regard to the data subject or to third parties (e.g. verification by the public authority of compliance with tax obligations, verification by the board of statutory auditors or auditors of compliance with legal obligations, etc. ) or to receive personal data from the Controller and processing them in turn, in order to be able to manage the activities related to the Controller’s request for support in managing the activities towards the data subjects.

7. Cookie Policy. 

With a provision of 8 May 2014, the Italian Data Protection Authority implemented, with definitive entry into force in Italy as of 2 June 2015, European Directive 2009/136/EC, which requires web page administrators to publish information on the cookie policy of the site that visitors are surfing.

This Policy may be updated at any time due to changes in the regulations in force or any changes in the configuration and type of cookies used; therefore we suggest that you periodically review this cookie policy in order to know all of its subsequent updates.

The Site may contain links to other websites that have their own privacy policy that may differ from that adopted by the SEO positioning of the Site and that is therefore not responsible for these sites.

What cookies are and how they are used

Cookies are short strings of information (text files) concerning the activity of the user on the website, which are stored, during the first surfing on the website, on the device (computer, smartphone or tablet) of the user who surfs the Internet, and then transmitted to the same sites at the next visit of the same user allowing our site to automatically recognise the user (or other users who use the same device) after the first visit and then improve its user experience.  

Their operation is totally dependent on the surfing browser of the user and may or may not be enabled by the user.

In order to always ensure the best surfing possible, our site offers the best performance with cookies enabled.  By default, almost all web browsers are set to automatically accept cookies.

Cookies can be:

• “first-party” cookies when they are managed directly by the person tasked with processing
• “third-party” cookies when they are set and managed by persons who are not involved with the website visited by the user.

Third party cookies fall under the direct and exclusive responsibility of the provider, and in relation to their installation the provider of the first-party site is simply a technical intermediary.

Which cookies do we use and for what purpose

The Site uses or can use, even in combination, the following categories of cookies:

• Permanent or “persistent” cookies: these cookies remain stored on your device even after you leave the website or close your browser: in particular, they remain until their expiry date or until they are manually deleted by the user. Persistent cookies fulfil many functions in the interest of web surfers (such as storing the password), but in some cases they can also be used for promotional purposes.

• Session (or temporary) cookies: Their duration is limited to the visit and they are deleted when the browser is closed, which ends the “session” of access to the website. As a rule, they allow users to access personalised services and make full use of the site’s features, avoiding the use of other IT techniques that could potentially compromise the confidentiality of users’ surfing.

• Technical and functional cookies, for example for the transmission of session identifiers necessary to allow safe and efficient exploration of the site. These cookies avoid using other IT techniques that could potentially compromise the confidentiality of users’ surfing.

For the use of technical cookies, the law requires the mere release of the information notice to the data subject, as is the case with this communication and i.e. even without the creation of specific banners on the Site.

On the other hand, for all non-technical cookies, the regulations in force make their installation conditional on prior consent being given in the simplified forms provided for by the Measure of 8/5/2014 of the Italian DPA and i.e., through the publication of synthetic banners viewable by the user on the first “landing” on the site and which makes it possible to generate a further action of use of the Site (based on “scroll”, or on the continuation of surfing within the same web page) with which the user can implicitly communicate his/her consent, or, alternatively, to access an analytics cookie information (i.e. this information notice), within which the user can express his/her required consent or non-consent. This consent or non-consent may be given by the user not in reference to individual cookies installed but in relation to broader categories of cookies, or to specific producers and/or intermediaries with which the Site has established business relations.

• Analytics cookies: these cookies can be both temporary and permanent, and make it possible to collect and analyse in an aggregated and/or disaggregated manner statistical information on accesses (e.g. geographical area of origin of the user, access tool used, age, etc.) and, in general, on the behaviour of users on the site and thus to improve their experience and content provided.

Such analytics cookies can be considered technical cookies only if they are created and used directly by the first-party site (therefore, without the intervention of third parties). For example, the site uses log files (i.e. it records the history of operations as they are carried out) and registry files (which include IP addresses, browser type, operating system used by the user’s device, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date, time, page of entry and exit and the number of clicks, but also the pages visited on the site, third-party sites from which the user comes). All this in order to analyse the trends of user behaviour and administer and optimise the site. The information collected in this way is not personal as the data are collected and analysed anonymously.

On the other hand, if analytics cookies are created and/or used by third parties (other than the controller of the first-party site), they cannot be considered technical cookies and have a different legal treatment.

• Profiling (or advertising) cookies (always permanent): they are used for obtaining information, aggregated or not, useful for evaluating the use of the website and the activities carried out by the visitor (choice of displaying specific pages, specific products and/or services, etc.), used by the controller for the formulation of commercial advertising of targeted products and/or services, i.e. based on previous activities of the user (instead of the general activities offered to all).

List of cookies actually present on the website

The introduction above does not automatically imply that this website currently uses all the categories of cookies indicated above. The list of cookies actually used by Würth Phoenix S.r.l. is indicated in chapter 10. Cookiebot.

The website also uses Google Analytics cookies (Google Inc. cookie, which is an American company, third party). We would like to point out that Google Analytics does not collect any strictly personal information, but only in aggregate statistical form, data on age, gender and preferences of our visitors (in order to better evaluate the use of our website and the activities carried out by the visitor and better target the provided services). These cookies are stored on servers that may be located in the United States or other countries. Google reserves the right to transfer the information collected with its cookie to third parties where this is required by law or where the third party processes information on its behalf.

However, the “Analytics” function is configured by Würth Phoenix S.r.l. by default, in such a way as to significantly mask portions of the IP address of the user/visitor, and therefore the data relating to the IP address thus collected are already anonymised at source and therefore the analytics cookie does not allow to trace the identity of the user/visitor even indirectly – and in particular through further processing. For this reason, Würth Phoenix S.r.l., which is the website provider from time to time, is not obliged by law to comply with the obligations and fulfilments envisaged by the regulations on cookies (e.g. notification of the processing of cookies to the Italian DPA).

In the event that Würth Phoenix S.r.l. should in the future decide to modify at any time the configuration of the “Analytics” function in such a way as to allow the collection of data relating to the user consisting of the last three numbers that make up the user’s IP address, this choice must be notified in advance to the Italian DPA by the data controller carried out through the portal or site, to protect the user.

Please note that Google also guarantees that it will not associate the user’s IP address with any other data held by Google in order to obtain a more detailed user profile.

This site does not use personal profiling cookies, i.e. cookies based on personal identification data.

Our site does not use remarketing lists and display network ads, i.e. online ads based on categories of general interest expressed by categories of users through previous web surfing.

Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, our website does not use the special advertising functions of Google Analytics, which allow you to activate additional functions not available through the standard implementations of Google Analytics and related cookies.

These advertising functions, if any, also allow the collection of traffic data (via Google advertising cookies and anonymous identifiers) in addition to data that we already collect through a standard Google Analytics implementation. The advertising functions of Google Analytics are as follows:

• Remarketing with Google Analytics
• Google Display Network Impression Reporting (if used via AdWords)
• Integrations with the DoubleClick platform
• Reports on demographic data and Google Analytics interests

For more information on online behavioural advertising and some suggestions on possible measures, in particular to disable the display of advertisements based on online interests: www.youronlinechoiches.eu/it.

• Social cookies: these cookies are third-party cookies, i.e. provided directly by the domains of the most common social media networks that are linked to our Site through links to official pages, content sharing buttons and links. The use of these buttons and functions implies the exchange of information (e.g. texts, photographs, videos, etc.) with such sites.

Therefore, the management of information and ways to delete such social cookies is regulated by the social media sites themselves: we invite the user to consult their privacy policies, at the following links:

• Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy?trk=uno-reg-guest-home-privacy-policy
• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies/
• Twitter: https://help.twitter.com/it/rules-and-policies/twitter-cookies
• YouTube: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/types/

The use of such cookies is purely anonymous; no personal information is collected unless the user intends to provide it explicitly by sending contact forms and/or forms requesting information.

Further information on privacy and the use of social cookies can be found directly on the sites of the respective third-party providers.
