We are committed to protecting the privacy of users of our website. This Privacy Policy therefore sets out in detail what personal data are processed when you use our website and how we (= the Controller) protect that data. Data is processed on the basis of the applicable statutory provisions.

1) Who is responsible for processing my data?

Controller for this website:
Zellstoff Pöls AG, Dr. Luigi-Angeli-Straße 9, 8761 Pöls
Representative of the Controller: Hans-Georg Pranckh, datenschutz@zellstoff-poels.at, +43 3579 8181-0

2) What data is processed?

1.
When you visit our website or web shop, we temporarily save and process the following (log) data:

  • IP address of the accessing computer
  • Date and time of access
  • Name and URL of the file accessed
  • Volume of data transferred
  • Notification of whether access was successful (HTTP status code)
  • Identifiers of the browser and operating system used

 
The data recorded are stored for three days. The legal basis for the storage of these data is our legitimate interest, as they serve in particular to ensure the smooth operation of the server and system security (Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR). IP addresses are only evaluated in the event of attacks on our network infrastructure.
 
2.
We process personal data that we receive from you in the context of initiating a business transaction via a form or an e-mail. This is the case, for example, if you order samples on our website or if you want to download data sheets or certificates. This personal data includes: name, company, e-mail address, telephone number, company affiliation. Which (further) data is collected in detail can be seen from the respective input forms on our website.
 
If a contractual relationship results from the business initiation, the legal basis for the storage of this data is the fulfillment of the contract with you (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR). In this case, your relevant data will generally be stored for the duration of the contractual relationship (unless some of it can be deleted earlier because it is no longer required). The storage period of the collected data is generally 3 years after termination of the contractual relationship (general limitation period of the purchase price claim) or 7 years if the data is subject to the tax retention obligation of the BAO or the UGB.
 
If no contractual relationship results from the business initiation, the legal basis for the storage of this data is our legitimate interest, as this data processing is necessary for communication with you (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). In this case, the data will be stored by us until you request deletion.
 
3.
If you create a supplier profile on our website, you are asked to enter personal data in an online form. We require both the information or data you enter and the data subsequently provided as part of management of the supplier relationship, including but not limited to your name, e-mail address, telephone number and bank details, for the purposes of handling the contract with you (Art 6 para 1 lit b GDPR). In this case, your relevant data will generally be stored for the duration of the contractual relationship (unless some of it is deleted earlier because it is no longer required). The storage period of the collected data is generally 3 years after termination of the contractual relationship (general limitation period of the purchase price claim) or 7 years if the data is subject to the tax retention obligation of the BAO or the UGB.

  2. Use of the supplier portal is not possible without provision of the data. Suppliers who do not provide said data cannot take part in Zellstoff Pöls AG tendering processes.

No newsletter shall be sent if consent is not given.
 
6. LinkedIn
We use the conversion tracking tool LinkedIn Insight Tag on our website. The service provider is the American company LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

By embedding the tracking tool, data can be sent to LinkedIn, stored and processed there. If you click on one of our LinkedIn ads, a cookie may be stored on your computer (usually in the browser) or mobile device. In principle, LinkedIn processes data using a combination of cookies and server-side functions. As soon as you complete an action on the website, LinkedIn recognizes the cookie and saves your action as a so-called conversion. As long as you are browsing our website, we and LinkedIn recognize that you have found us via our LinkedIn ad. The cookie is read and sent back to LinkedIn with the conversion data. It is also possible that other cookies are used to measure conversions.

5) What rights do I have in connection with the processing of my data?

If the provision of your data is based on the legal basis of your consent, this is neither legally nor contractually required and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. There is therefore no obligation to provide this data.
