2. PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA – PALFINGER WEBSITES

We use so-called cookies on our websites. These are small text files that are stored on your end device with the help of your browser. Some cookies are technically necessary in order to display and execute the web pages correctly. All other cookies are optional and are only set after you have given your consent.

Of course, you can object to the processing of your personal data for advertising and data analysis purposes at any time!

Your personal data is shared within the PALFINGER Group, so your data may be transferred to PALFINGER companies outside the European Union. Data protection agreements are in place to ensure the security of your data. A list of all subsidiaries can be found here.

Your personal data will be treated confidentially and processed in compliance with the applicable data protection laws.

2.1.      Technically necessary cookies

If you use our websites for information purposes only, i.e. if you simply view them without registering and without providing us with any other information, we process the personal data that your browser transmits to our servers. This personal data is technically necessary in order to display our websites to you and to ensure stability and security. The following data is collected:

  • Used operating system
  • Language, version and settings of the used web-browser

Your personal data will be stored for the duration of your visit to our website. As soon as you close your browser, your data will be deleted.

2.2.      Optional cookies – advertising tracking and user analysis

Optional cookies are used to:

  • make it easier for you to use the website via different browsers or end devices,
  • analyze your user behavior on our platform,
  • recognize you when you visit our platform and
  • place personalized advertising.

When you visit our website for the first time, you can choose whether or not to allow the placement of optional cookies via the permanent cookie button. You can revoke your consent at any time via the cookie button. This does not affect the permissibility of processing your personal data until you withdraw your consent. Deactivating cookies may limit the functionality of our website.

The following personal data is processed by optional cookies:

  • Data about your device/browser
  • IP address
  • Website or app activities

PALFINGER uses external providers to carry out advertising tracking and visitor analyses. Suitable guarantees have been put in place to ensure that your data is handled in compliance with data protection regulations. Among other things, PALFINGER uses so-called server-side cookies. Server-side cookies are not stored on your end device, but on a PALFINGER server in the European Union. This has the advantage that PALFINGER can take measures to anonymize or pseudonymize your data to protect it before it is passed on to third parties. This means that only anonymized data is transferred to third parties.
