Octubre 2023
I. Object of the statement
„Form-on“ (Form-on GmbH, Josef Umdasch Platz 1, 3300 Amstetten, Austria; responsible party pursuant to GDPR) takes the protection of personal data seriously. That is why Form-on processes personal data independently pursuant to the requirements of the applicable legislation, especially pursuant to the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and Council dated 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons when processing personal data in relation to the free movement of data (“GDPR”).
“Personal data” is all information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person such as name, address, email address and IP address.
The aim of this statement is to inform the visitor (also referred to hereinafter as “you” or “your”) about the purpose and scope of processing personal data on the following “websites”, whereby the individual websites do not always use all the cookies or applications listed here:
II. General processing
Form-on processes personal data on its websites based on your consent (use of cookies for analysis and promotional purposes; see below for opt-out; establishing contact via the form or by email, newsletter) and to meet its contractual obligations.
Your data is generally not sent to third parties (processors) unless we are legally obligated to do so, it is necessary to forward data to meet our contractual obligations or you have expressly consented to your data being forwarded in advance.
If you use our websites solely for information purposes, i.e. if you do not register or transmit information another way, we will only collect personal data that is sent from your browser. If you visit our websites, we will collect the data listed below that is required by us for technical reasons to display the websites and to ensure their stability and security: IP address and IP location, date and time of the query, time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), content of the request (certain page), access status/HTTP status code, transferred data volume, website which the request comes from, operating system and its interface, language and version of the browser software, number, duration and time of visits, search engines and keywords that were used, browser type, screen size and operating system.
Please refer to “Use of cookies” on how to use cookies.
We also add links on our websites to other websites; this is only done for information purposes. These websites are not under our control and therefore do not come under the provisions of this privacy statement. If you access a link, it is possible for the operator of these websites to collect data about you and to process this data pursuant to his privacy statement which may differ from our version.
III. Specific processing
Newsletter
With the newsletter Form-on informs about current topics, new developments and offers. A valid e-mail address is required to register for the newsletter. If a visitor wishes to receive the newsletter offered on the websites, the e-mail address, personal data as well as the IP address and the date of registration are stored. Personal data includes salutation, first name, surname, company, country and language as well as whether a visitor is interested in used formwork or formwork components.
As soon as a visitor submits the completed newsletter registration form, the email address, all personal data provided as well as the IP address and the date of registration are transmitted to the newsletter delivery company CleverReach GmbH & Ko.KG ("CleverReach", CRASH Building, Schafjueckenweg 2, 26180 Rastede, Germany; order processor as defined by DSGVO). Form-on uses CleverReach GmbH & Co KG for the dispatch of all newsletters. All user data collected by Form-on is stored by CleverReach.
After registering for the newsletter, the visitor receives an email where the registration for the newsletter must be confirmed by clicking on the link ("double opt-in"). Only after this confirmation the visitor will receive future newsletters from Form-on. This procedure serves as a precaution in the event that a third party misuses the e-mail address and registers for the newsletter without the knowledge of the authorised user. Double opt-in ensures that a visitor is also the owner of the e-mail address provided and that the owner of the e-mail address also agrees to receive the newsletter.
CleverReach offers analysis options on whether newsletters are opened and how they are used. By ordering the newsletter, you consent to the processing of all data provided. The consent to the storage of the data, the email address and their use for the newsletter can be revoked at any time. The newsletter can be cancelled at any time via a link in the newsletter or by sending a message to Form-on. The deletion of all data stored by CleverReach can be requested by notifying Form-on.
Contact Form
The data entered in the form is stored by Form-on for processing queries and in case there are any follow-up questions. By sending the form, you are giving your consent for your data to be recorded and processed electronically.
Form-on collects the following data when using the contact form: Salutation, first name, surname, company, e-mail, address, country, telephone number, time of availability, comments as well as information on which product the visitor is interested in, the IP address and the date.
