Personal data and data processing

Tehag Engineering AG would like to inform you about how we handle personal data in this privacy policy. Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

 

Processing by us means any handling of personal data, particularly obtaining, using, storing, processing, archiving or destroying personal data.

 

Purpose, legal basis and erasure period for the data

We collect your data for the purpose of executing sales contracts and to meet your and our contractual and pre-contractual obligations. The data is erased as soon as it is no longer required for the processing purpose or for cooperation with our customers and suppliers, unless we are obliged to store it for a longer period of time due to tax and commercial retention and documentation obligations.

 

Categories of personal data

Tehag Engineering AG processes the following categories of personal data (please note that this list is not exhaustive):

• Data pertaining to a supplier or customer and a company or contact person associated with the supplier/customer, such as last name/first name, company address (employer), company documents, role/occupation, email address, telephone number.
• Order and order data (with and without a contract) containing information regarding any transactions/actions carried out.
• Technical data regarding orders, such as photos, emails, letters, faxes, drawings, adjustments and changes.
• Marketing data, such as information sent to and from the customer regarding enquiries and/or offers, sales visits with activities, trade fair visits/events, etc.

 

Purposes of storage

Tehag Engineering AG may process the categories of personal data mentioned in order to carry out services and for its own or statutory purposes:

• Maintaining the database of people and addresses, which includes supplier and customer information and the corresponding storage of any associated documentation
• All purchase-related and order-related data for the customer and the supplier
• Managing and monitoring services and transactions with customers or suppliers, evaluating potential business relationships and transactions, negotiating and processing agreements or other legal documents and fulfilling obligations and duties or processing payments
• Complying with reporting obligations to the competent authorities and institutions in line with Swiss or foreign laws, rules and regulations
• Carrying out internal or external audits and inspections

 

Data exchange and data transfer

Tehag Engineering AG is a legally independent company. We sometimes work with Tehag Deutschland GmbH in Moers.

 

Some customers and suppliers are in direct contact with both companies. This means that these two legally independent Tehag units sometimes also work together to fulfil orders. For this reason, the relevant data may be distributed between the two Tehag parties. This means that Tehag Deutschland GmbH may also exchange and share data with Tehag Engineering AG in Switzerland.

 

Your personal data will not be shared with third parties for purposes or parties other than those listed.

 

Data security

Tehag Engineering AG is obliged to comply with data protection law to protect your privacy.

We do so in line with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. Tehag Engineering AG takes appropriate measures to safeguard customers’ personal data and ensure that it is treated confidentially.

 

Your rights

You have the right to access information about the data we have stored about you and, if the data is incorrect, to request that it is rectified or, if the data is not stored properly, that it is erased. You will receive confirmation via our data protection email address accordingly.

 

Requests to data protection officer

We kindly ask that you send us corresponding requests for information in writing by post or by email so that we can correctly determine the origin of the request.

 

You can also notify us of other rights you are entitled to under the Data Protection Act, such as the right to refuse data processing for marketing purposes or the right to rectification, as described above.

 

Declaration of consent

If you do not respond within seven days of receiving the privacy policy by email, you are deemed to have agreed to this policy. Otherwise, we kindly ask that you respond in writing to the party responsible at our company via our data protection email address or by sending a letter; please see ‘Controller’ in the introduction.
