Privacy policy
We are very pleased about your interest in our company. The management of Wortmann
Drehtechnik GmbH attaches great importance to data protection. The website can generally
be used without providing any personal data. However, if a person concerned wishes to
make use of special services of our company via our website, it might be necessary to
process personal data. If it is necessary to process personal data and there is no legal basis
for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the person concerned.
The processing of personal data, such as name, address, e-mail address or telephone
number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the Basic Data Protection
Regulation and in compliance with the country-specific data protection regulations
applicable to Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH. By means of this data protection declaration,
our company would like to inform the public about the type, scope and purpose of the
personal data collected, used and processed by us. Furthermore, this data protection
declaration informs affected persons about the rights to which they are entitled.
Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH, as the person responsible for processing, has implemented
numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection
possible of the personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data
transmissions can generally have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be
guaranteed. For this reason, every person concerned is free to transmit personal data to us
by alternative means, such as by telephone.
1. definitions of terms
The data protection declaration of Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH is based on the terms used
by the European legislator for directives and regulations when the basic data protection
regulation (DS-GVO) was issued. Our data protection declaration should be easy to read and
understand for the public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this,
we would like to explain the terms used in advance.
We use the following terms, among others, in this data protection declaration:
a) personal data
Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (in
the following "data subject"). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified,
directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an
identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more factors specific to
the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that
natural person.
(b) data subject
Data subject means any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data are
processed by the controller.
(c) Processing
Processing is any operation or set of operations, performed with or without the aid of
automated means, concerning personal data, such as collection, recording, organization,
organization, filing, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure
by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination,
restriction, erasure or destruction.
d) Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting
their future processing.
e) Profiling
Profiling is any automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of such personal
data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse
or predict aspects relating to the job performance, economic situation, health, personal
preferences, interests, reliability, conduct, whereabouts or change of location of that natural
person.
f) Pseudonymization
Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data
can no longer be assigned to a specific data subject without the use of additional
information, provided that this additional information is kept separately and is subject to
technical and organizational measures that ensure that the personal data is not assigned to
an identified or identifiable natural person.
g) Controller or data controller
Controller or data controller is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or any
other body which alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the
processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are
determined by Union law or by the law of the Member States, the controller or the specific
criteria for its designation may be provided for by Union law or by the law of the Member
States.
(h) Processor
Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body that processes
personal data on behalf of the controller.
i) Recipient
The recipient is a natural or legal person, authority, institution or other body to whom
personal data is disclosed, whether or not it is a third party. However, public authorities
which may receive personal data in the course of a specific investigation mandate under
Union or national law shall not be considered as recipients.
(j) Third party
A third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the
data subject, the controller, the processor and the persons who, under the direct authority
of the controller or the processor, are authorized to process the personal data.
k) Consent
Consent is any freely given, informed and unequivocal expression of the data subject's will in
a specific case, in the form of a statement or other unequivocal affirmative act by which the
data subject signifies his or her consent to the processing of personal data relating to him or
her.
2. name and address of the controller

3. cookies
The internet pages of Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH use cookies. Cookies are text files which
are stored and saved on a computer system via an internet browser.
Numerous Internet pages and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie
ID. A cookie ID is a unique identification of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters
that can be used to assign Internet pages and servers to the specific Internet browser in
which the cookie was stored. This enables the Internet pages and servers visited to
distinguish the individual browser of the person concerned from other Internet browsers
that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified by
the unique cookie ID.
Through the use of cookies, Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH is able to provide users of this
website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the setting of
cookies.
By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized in the
interest of the user. As already mentioned, cookies enable us to recognize the users of our
website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For
example, the user of a website that uses cookies does not have to enter his or her access
data each time he or she visits the website, because this is done by the website and the
cookie stored on the user's computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping
cart in the online store. The online store uses a cookie to remember the items that a
customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart.
The person concerned can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by
means of a corresponding setting in the Internet browser used and thus permanently object
to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at
any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common
Internet browsers. If the person concerned deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet
browser used, it is possible that not all functions of our website can be used to their full
extent.
4. collection of general data and information
The website of Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH collects a number of general data and
information with every call of the website by a person concerned or an automated system.
These general data and information are stored in the log files of the server. The (1) browser
types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the
website from which an accessing system accesses our website (so-called referrer), (4) the
sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and
time of an access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the
Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information
which serve to prevent danger in the event of attacks on our information technology
systems.
When using this general data and information, Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH does not draw
any conclusions about the person concerned. Rather, this information is required in order to
(1) deliver the contents of our website correctly, (2) optimize the contents of our website as
well as the advertising for it, (3) ensure the permanent operability of our information
technology systems and the technology of our website and (4) to provide law enforcement
agencies with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber attack.
This anonymously collected data and information is therefore evaluated by Wortmann
Drehtechnik GmbH on the one hand statistically and also with the aim of increasing data
protection and data security in our company, in order to ultimately ensure an optimum level
of protection for the personal data processed by us. The anonymous data of the server log
files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a person concerned.
5. contact possibility via the internet page
Due to legal regulations, the internet site of Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH contains
information that enables quick electronic contact to our company as well as direct
communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic
mail (e-mail address). If a person concerned wishes to contact the person responsible for
processing the data by e-mail or via a contact form, he or she must contact the person
responsible for processing the data.
6. routine deletion and blocking of personal data
The data controller processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the time
necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or if this is provided for by the European
Directive and Regulation Giver or another legislator in laws or regulations to which the data
controller is subject.
If the purpose of storage ceases to apply or if a storage period prescribed by the European
Directive and Regulation Giver or any other competent legislator expires, the personal data
will be blocked or deleted as a matter of routine and in accordance with the law.
7. rights of the data subject
a) Right to confirmation
Every data subject has the right, granted by the European Directives and Regulations, to
obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data relating to him are
being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of confirmation, he or she may
at any time contact an employee of the data controller.
b) Right of access
Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the
European Directive and Regulation Giver, to obtain at any time and free of charge
information from the data controller about the personal data stored about him and a copy
of this information. Furthermore, the European Directive and Regulation Giver has granted
the data subject access to the following information:
the processing purposes
the categories of personal data processed
the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be
disclosed, in particular to recipients in third countries or to international organizations
if possible, the planned duration for which the personal data will be stored or, if this is not
possible, the criteria for determining this duration
the existence of a right of rectification or erasure of personal data concerning him or her or
of a right of opposition to or limitation of the processing by the controller
the existence of a right of appeal to a supervisory authority
if the personal data are not collected from the data subject: All available information about
the origin of the data
the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, in accordance with Article
22(1) and (4) of the DPA and, at least in these cases, meaningful information about the logic
involved and the scope and intended impact of such processing on the data subject
Furthermore, the data subject has the right of information as to whether personal data has
been transferred to a third country or to an international organization. If this is the case, the
data subject shall also have the right to obtain information on the appropriate safeguards in
connection with the transfer.
If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of access, he or she may at any time contact an
employee of the controller.
c) Right of rectification
Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the
European Directives and Regulations, to request the immediate rectification of incorrect
personal data concerning him. Furthermore, the data subject has the right to request the
completion of incomplete personal data, also by means of a supplementary declaration,
taking into account the purposes of the processing.
If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of rectification, he or she may at any time
contact an employee of the data controller.
d) Right of cancellation (right to be forgotten)
Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the
European Directives and Regulations, to obtain from the controller the immediate deletion
of personal data concerning him/her, if one of the following reasons applies and if the
processing is not necessary:
The personal data have been collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which they
are no longer necessary.
the data subject withdraws the consent on which the processing was based pursuant to
Article 6(1)(a) of the DPA or Article 9(2)(a) of the DPA, and there is no other legal basis for
the processing
The data subject lodges an objection to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) DPA and there
are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing, or the data subject lodges an
objection to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(2) DPA.
The personal data were processed unlawfully.
The deletion of the personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation under Union
law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.
The personal data was collected in relation to information society services offered in
accordance with Art. 8 Paragraph 1 DS-GVO.
If one of the above reasons applies and a data subject wishes to have personal data stored
by Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH deleted, he/she can contact an employee of the data
controller at any time. The employee of Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH will ensure that the
request for deletion is complied with immediately.
If the personal data has been made public by Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH and our
company as the responsible party is obliged to delete the personal data in accordance with
Art. 17 (1) DS-GVO, Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH will take appropriate measures, including
technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the implementation
costs, to inform other persons responsible for data processing who process the published
personal data that the person concerned has requested that all links to this personal data or
copies or replications of this personal data be deleted by these other persons responsible for
data processing, unless the processing is necessary. The employee of Wortmann Drehtechnik
GmbH will take the necessary steps in individual cases.
e) Right to limitation of processing
Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the
European Directives and Regulations, to request the controller to limit the processing if one
of the following conditions is met:
The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period of time that
allows the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
The processing is unlawful, the data subject refuses to have the personal data deleted and
instead requests the restriction of the use of the personal data.
The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but the
data subject needs them in order to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
The data subject has lodged an objection to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 (1) DS-
GVO and it is not yet clear whether the justified reasons of the controller outweigh those of
the data subject.
If one of the above-mentioned conditions is met and a data subject wishes to request the
restriction of personal data stored by Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH, he/she may contact an
employee of the data controller at any time. The employee of Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH
will arrange for the restriction of processing.
f) Right to data transferability
Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the
European Directives and Regulations, to receive the personal data concerning him/her,
which have been provided by the data subject to a data controller, in a structured, common
and machine-readable format. He/she also has the right to have this data communicated to
another controller without hindrance by the controller to whom the personal data has been
made available, provided that the processing is based on the consent pursuant to Art. 6
paragraph 1 letter a DPA or Art. 9 paragraph 2 letter a DPA or on a contract pursuant to Art.
6 paragraph 1 letter b DPA and that the processing is carried out with the aid of automated
procedures, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in
the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
In addition, when exercising their right to data transfer pursuant to Art. 20 Paragraph 1 DS-
GVO, the data subject has the right to obtain that personal data be transferred directly from
one controller to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible and provided that
this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of other persons.
In order to assert the right to data transfer, the person concerned can contact an employee
of Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH at any time.
g) Right of objection
Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the
European Directive and Regulation Giver, to object at any time, for reasons arising from his
or her particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning him or her that is
carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) of the DPA. This also applies to profiling based
on these provisions.
In the event of an objection, Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH will no longer process the
personal data unless we can prove compelling reasons for processing worthy of protection
that outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the person concerned, or the processing
serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
If Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH processes personal data in order to carry out direct
advertising, the person concerned has the right to object at any time to the processing of
personal data for the purpose of such advertising. This also applies to profiling, insofar as it is
associated with such direct advertising. If the data subject objects to Wortmann Drehtechnik
GmbH processing for the purposes of direct advertising, Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH will
no longer process the personal data for these purposes.
In addition, the data subject has the right to object, for reasons arising from his or her
particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning him or her that is carried
out at Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH for scientific or historical research purposes or for
statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89 para. 1 DS-GVO, unless such processing is
necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest.
In order to exercise the right of objection, the person concerned can directly contact any
employee of Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH or any other employee. The data subject is also
free to exercise his or her right of objection in connection with the use of information
society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, by means of automated procedures
involving technical specifications.
h) Automated decisions in individual cases including profiling
Every person concerned by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the
European Directives and Regulations, not to be subject to a decision based solely on
automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or
her or significantly affects him or her in a similar way, provided that the decision (1) is not
necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the
controller, or (2) is authorised by Union or national legislation to which the controller is
subject and such legislation provides for adequate safeguards of the rights and freedoms
and legitimate interests of the data subject, or (3) is taken with the explicit consent of the
data subject.
If the decision (1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the
data subject and the person responsible or (2) is made with the express consent of the data
subject, Wortmann Drehtechnik GmbH shall take appropriate measures to safeguard the
rights and freedoms as well as the legitimate interests of the data subject, which shall
include at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person from the person responsible,
to present his or her point of view and to challenge the decision.
If the data subject wishes to exercise rights relating to automated decisions, he or she may
at any time contact an employee of the controller.
i) Right to revoke a data protection consent
Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the
European Directive and Regulation Giver to revoke his or her consent to the processing of
personal data at any time.
If the data subject wishes to exercise his or her right to withdraw consent, he or she may
contact an employee of the data controller at any time.
8. legal basis of the processing
Art. 6 I lit. a DS-GVO serves our company as a legal basis for processing operations for which
we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is
necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the
case, for example, with processing operations necessary for the supply of goods or the
provision of another service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b DS-
GVO. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for the
implementation of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our
products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation which makes it necessary
to process personal data, for example to fulfil tax obligations, the processing is based on Art.
6 I lit. c DS-GVO. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect
the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for
example, if a visitor to our company was injured and his name, age, health insurance details
or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. In
this case the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d DS-GVO. Finally, processing
operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f DS-GVO. Processing operations which are not
covered by any of the above legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is
necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or of a third party, provided
that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. We
are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been
specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it took the view that a
legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the person
responsible (Recital 47 Sentence 2 DS-GVO).
9. legitimate interests in processing pursued by the controller or a third party
If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f DS-GVO, our legitimate interest
is to carry out our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees
and our shareholders.
10. duration for which the personal data is stored
The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the respective legal retention
period. After this period has expired, the corresponding data is routinely deleted if it is no
longer required for the fulfillment or initiation of a contract.
11. legal or contractual provisions on the provision of personal data; necessity for the
conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data;
possible consequences of not providing the data
We would like to inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law
(e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information on the
contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary for a contract to be concluded that a
person concerned provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by
us. For example, the person concerned is obliged to provide us with personal data if our
company concludes a contract with him/her. Failure to provide the personal data would
mean that the contract with the person concerned could not be concluded. Before the
person concerned makes personal data available, the person concerned must contact one of
our employees. Our employee will inform the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether
the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the
conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and
what the consequences would be if the personal data were not provided.
12. existence of automated decision making
As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision making or profiling
