Our Service Info Profile (SIP) that can be accessed from these web pages gives customers the option to store operating reports, service reports and other documents about their wind energy Instructor, or to share them with us within the framework of the performance of the contract. Performance of the contract for the purposes of Article 6 [1] Sentence 1 b) of the GDPR is the legal basis for this. The amount of personal information collected in this setting is very limited; it is merely the contact details of points of contact. We keep this information strictly confidential and will store and use the data only to enable you to use the Service Info Profile; following termination of the contractual relationship the information will be erased at once.

  1. Cookies

We use cookies in some areas for a need-based design of our website. Most of the cookies we use expire after closing the browser session (known as ‘session cookies’). Others remain on your terminal device and enable us to recognise your browser the next time you visit the site (persistent cookies). We do not use this information to personally identify any visitor to this website.

Most browsers are configured so that they accept cookies automatically. Still, you can disable cookies altogether or configure your browser so that it will ask you when a website wants to set a cookie. Please note that blocking cookies from our website might result in functional restrictions when using our web pages or those of other service providers.

  1. Matomo Analytics

We use the Matomo Analytics service (formerly Piwik) for statistical analysis of the usage of our website, using overriding legitimate corporate interests as the legal basis. Small text files (cookies) are used to store information about how you use our website and what browser/operating system you use. This includes the IP address. The IP address is instantly anonymised during the process so that you remain anonymous to us as a user. Nevertheless, if you are opposed to analysis of your user behaviour you can configure your browser so that no analytics cookie can be set (objection). This objection is stored as an opt-out cookie.

Your option for disablement: At this point you can decide whether or not your browser may store a unique web analytics cookie to enable the website operator to collect and analyse various statistical information. If you wish to opt out, click on the following link to have your browser store the Matomo opt-out cookie.

Please keep the following in mind: If you wipe all of your cookies the opt-out cookie will also be deleted. This means that you will have to opt out from the analysis of your user behaviour once again.

  1. Data security

We have taken extensive technological and operational precautions to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorised persons. We review and adapt our security procedures on a regular basis to keep up with technological progress.

When you use our contact form or log on to the Service Info Portal (SIP) platform you also provide personal information about yourself. To prevent this information from falling into wrong hands we use TLS (Transport Layer Security) to encrypt your personal data end-to-end. This is a tried-and-tested data transfer method on the internet that is highly secure if used according to the state of the art the way we do.

  1. Data processing outside the context of this website

We process personal data from you also outside the context of this website if you approach us in writing, by phone or by e-mail and, in doing so, disclose personal data (particularly contact details), or if you have entered into a contractual relationship with us, or if data processing is required for any reason whatsoever. This is the case primarily if you are one of our business partners or customers, an interested party or a subscriber to our ‘AltiNow’ magazine, attend at one of our events, work for us as a service provider, or are involved in an administrative procedure, e.g. approval procedure for a wind energy converter.

Depending on the context, processing takes place on different legal bases for the purposes of Article 6 GDPR; depending on the context, these include in particular:

  1. Your consent (e.g. to receiving the ‘AltiNow’ magazine)
  2. A contractual relationship (e.g. for installation or maintenance of a wind energy converter, or a related service agreement)
  3. A statutory obligation to process data (e.g. for the performance of administrative procedures) or
  4. An overriding legitimate corporate interest (e.g. to enforce legal claims or for video surveillance of our facilities for protection against unauthorised access, where required)

Working at Height Group™ and other companies of the organisation host central functions that are active on behalf of the corporate network and, in this context, process also personal data, e.g. Marketing and Communication, Sales, Purchasing, Central Administration (e.g. Legal Department), and Recruiting. Processing of personal data by these functions also takes place on the legal bases listed above. If central functions are involved by other companies of the organisation (e.g. for procurement transactions or administrative procedures), personal data will be exchanged to the extent required between the involved companies of the organisation. In this case, overriding legitimate corporate interests constitute the legal basis.

We will transfer personal data to other companies of the organisation or to third parties (e.g. authorities or banks or service providers employed to fulfil a contract) only if required by the particular business relationship or a statutory requirement. We bind any service provider we employ (e.g. for IT or printing services) by contract to process personal data only within the scope of their job.

Your personal data will always be stored for the period required for the particular purpose (e.g. performance of contract) and then deleted, taking into account the statutory retention periods, or locked for the required retention period after the purpose has been achieved (e.g. fulfilment of contract by both parties) or restricted from processing and then deleted. To exercise your rights as a data subject under Item 8, please contact Working at Height Group or, if another company of the organisation is responsible, contact that company. To do so, please use the contact information provided in Item 1 above.

  1. Your rights

You have the right to request information about your personal data stored by us at any time. Furthermore, you have the right to request correction or updating and deletion or restriction of processing (locking) of your personal data stored by us, if legally admissible and possible in the setting of an existing contractual relationship. If statutory regulations do not permit deletion your data will be locked instead (processing restrictions) so that they will only be accessible to comply with compulsive statutory regulations. You have the right to complain to a supervisory authority. Furthermore, you have the right to portability of those data you provided to us on the basis of a declaration of consent or a contract (data portability).

You may object to data processing for reasons arising from your particular situation, if data processing takes place due to our legitimate interests or is required to perform a function under public law. You may object to advertising appeals at any time with effect for the future (objection to use of data for advertising purposes).

If you have any questions about the use of your data, or if you would like to exercise your rights as a data subject, please write or send an e-mail to the address indicated above.
