You can use our online service without revealing your identity. For example, if we request personal data (such as name, address or email address) on the website in contact forms or during registration, this is done on a voluntary basis. We use this information for our own business purposes (such as sending the requested materials/information).
For questions of any kind, we offer you the opportunity to contact us via a form provided on the website. In this case, the data marked as mandatory is required in order to be able to assign and answer the request. Further information may be provided voluntarily.
The personal data collected by us for the use of the contact form will be deleted after completion of the request made by you and after expiry of the tax and commercial retention periods.
Once you have given your consent – for example, for the purpose of a newsletter or other interesting information being sent from our company – you may revoke it at any time with effect for the future without stating any reasons. To do so, you can use the contact form mentioned above or any other means mentioned in the newsletter.
Your personal data is processed for the following purposes:
tesa SE collects, processes and uses (hereafter “uses”) the personal data provided by you as required for the initiation, establishment, execution or termination of contractual or similar obligations with you or for the use of a service provided by us (Art. 6 (1) 1 b GDPR). Such obligations arise, for example, when you contact us to obtain information about us or our products, or if you use the extranet login as a customer. In such cases, we will use your personal data to process your specific concerns.
If you consent to the use of personal data for advertising and market research purposes, we will also use your data for the purposes for which it was approved (e.g. for newsletters), as long as you do not revoke your consent. This means that we will contact you in the manner indicated in the declaration of consent (e.g. email, telephone, mail) and provide you with information and individualized advertising about our products and services based on the analysis of your purchasing and clicking behavior on our websites. Finally, we use your information to analyze and improve the effectiveness of our websites.
In dealing with your concerns, it may be necessary to disclose your personal data to other affiliated companies within the tesa Group or to external service providers acting solely on our behalf. In part, we use service providers for the order processing of data as legally provided. For example, the website is hosted by NMMN New Media Markets & Networks IT Services GmbH and maintained by Plan A GmbH and agnosco.net GmbH. The newsletter is sent via CleverReach GmbH & Co. KG. We remain fully responsible for the data processing. Furthermore, we sometimes use plug-ins from other providers on our website; you will find more details below. We ensure that the external service providers use your personal data only in accordance with our instructions and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and the legal requirements for order processing.
Your personal data will always be treated confidentially and will not be disclosed to third parties who are not acting on our behalf, unless you have consented to its disclosure in writing or electronically or unless we are legally entitled or obliged to do so.
Please note that for the above purposes, we may also disclose your personal data to other global companies within our network [see “About us”]. The data collected in the contact form is disclosed to the company responsible for processing your request. As such, the processing of your personal data may also take place in countries outside the EU/EEA, insofar as this is necessary to provide a response.
This site uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on your computer and that allow for an analysis of website use and automatically recognize you on your next visit. You can prevent the installation of cookies by setting your browser accordingly. This may lead to you not being able to use all services to their full extent. To learn more about the utilization of cookies on our website, please consult our Cookie Policy.
Our websites use so-called “social plug-ins,” i.e. plug-ins from social networks, in particular the “Share” button of the provider “Facebook,” whose website facebook.com is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. The party responsible for the German website facebook.de is Facebook Ireland Limited, Hanover Reach, 5-7 Hanover Quay, Dublin 2, Ireland. The plug-ins usually feature the Facebook logo. In addition to Facebook, we use plug-ins from “Google+” (provider: Google Inc., Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA), “YouTube” (provider: YouTube LLC, 01 Cherry Avenue, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA), “Twitter” (provider: Twitter, Inc., 1355 Market St, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA), “Pinterest” (provider: Pinterest Inc., 808 Brannan Street, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA), “LinkedIn” (provider for customers outside the U.S.: LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland and “XING” (provider: XING SE, Dammtorstraße 30, 20354 Hamburg, Germany).
For privacy reasons, we have deliberately chosen not to use direct plug-ins from social networks on our websites. Instead, we use an alternative technical solution that lets you determine whether and when data is transmitted to the operators of the such social networks. When you visit our websites, no data is automatically transmitted to social networks such as Facebook, Google+, Twitter or Pinterest. Only when you actively click on the respective button does your internet browser connect to the servers of the social network in question. This means that by clicking on elements and then on the symbol of the social network in question, you agree to your internet browser establishing a connection with the servers of that social network and transmitting usage data to the operator of that social network. We have no influence on the type and extent of data collected by social networks. For the purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the respective social networks as well as their respective rights and options for the protection of your privacy, please refer to their privacy policies. Facebook’s can be found at http://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/ and http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=186325668085084.
