1. Data Protection
We appreciate you visiting our website and your interest in the prod-ucts we offer. Protecting your personal data is very important to us. In this Privacy Policy, we explain how we collect your personal infor-mation, what we do with it, for what purposes and on what legal foun-dation we do so, and what rights you have on that basis. We will also refer you to Daimler Truck Data Protection Policy.
Data protection information and the Daimler Truck AG Data Protection Policy do not apply to your activities on the websites of social networks or other providers that you can reach via the links on our websites. Please inform yourself on the websites of these providers about their data protection provisions.
2. Collecting and processing your personal date
a. When you visit our websites, we store your IP address and the name of your Internet service provider for a period of seven days for security reasons, in particular to prevent and detect attacks on our websites or attempts at fraud.
b. As a customer, you have the option to set up a customer account. The following data will be processed here: Title, first name and surname, e-mail address, telephone number (optional), address, order history.
In the case of Group employees, the plant and personnel identification numbers are processed in addition to the information specified in 2b.
c. In the context of an order for a product on our website, we process first and last names, title, e-mail address, address, IP address and referrer.
d. If you contact us via the contact form, we process the following data voluntarily: Salutation, first name, last name, e-mail. You contact us by e-mail.
e. We only store other personal data if you provide us with this data, for example, as part of a registration, a contact form, a chat, a survey, a competition or for the performance of a contract, and even in these cases only to the extent that we are permitted to do so on the basis of consent given by you or in accordance with the applicable legal provisions (For further information, please refer to the section "Legal basis for processing" below, see section 3 of this privacy policy.).
f. As a visitor to our website, you are under no legal or contractual obligation to provide us with your personal data. However, it is possible that certain functions of our website depend on the provision of personal data. If you do not provide personal data in these cases, this may result in functions not being available or only being available to a limited extent.
3. What are the data used for (purpose of processing) and on what basis (legal basis) does this happen?
a. Collection and processing in the context of the initiation or fulfillment of contractual obligations.
We collect and process your personal data mentioned in section 2 letter c within the framework of the initiation of a contractual relationship and for the fulfillment of our contractual obligations towards you (Article 6 para. 1 letter b GDRP).
When you register as an employee, a contract is concluded between you and Daimler Truck AG for a discount-entitled customer account and your personal data specified in Section 2 letter b is processed in this context. The customer account serves to validate the granting of an employee discount.
b. Processing due to your consent
Insofar as you have given us consent for the processing of your personal data, this constitutes the legal basis for the processing (Art. 6 para. 1 letter a GDPR). This applies in particular to the opening of a customer account. For this purpose, we process your personal data mentioned in section 2 letter b. The opening of a customer account enables you to simplify recurring orders and to view orders already placed without having to re-enter all of your personal data.
For other purposes (e.g. display of personalized content or advertising based on your usage behavior), we and, if applicable, selected third parties will use your data, provided that you give your consent (= approval) within the framework of our Consent Management System. You can obtain further information and decision-making options here.
c. Collection and processing in the context of the fulfillment of a legal obligation
As far as the processing of your personal data is necessary for the fulfillment of our legal obligations (e.g. storage for the fulfillment of commercial or tax retention obligations, surrender according to official or judicial order, e.g. to a law enforcement agency), we are authorized to do so according to Art. 6 para. 1 letter c DSGVO.
d. Processing on the basis of a legitimate interest
We process your personal data mentioned in section 2 letter a for the purpose of safeguarding our legitimate interests as well as the legitimate interests of third parties pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 letter f DSGVO.
The legally required documentation of business contacts, the protection of our IT systems against attacks and other unlawful acts are also such legitimate interests. We process the personal data mentioned under point 2 letter d for the purpose of responding to your request or for contacting you and the associated technical administration. The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in responding to your request pursuant to Art. 6 (1) letter f DSGVO.
Within the framework of the necessary balancing of interests in each case, we take into account in particular the type of personal data, the purpose of processing, the circumstances of processing and your interest in the confidentiality of your personal data.
e. Processing of other personal data
Insofar as you provide us with further personal data, e.g. as part of a registration, a contact form, a survey, a competition or for the performance of a contract, we use this data for the aforementioned purposes, for customer administration purposes and - insofar as necessary - for the purposes of processing and invoicing any business transactions, in each case to the extent required for this purpose.
4. Transfer of personal data to third parties; social plug-ins; use of service providers
a. Our websites may also contain offers from third parties. If you click on such an offer, we will transfer data to the respective provider to the extent necessary (e.g. the information that you found this offer on our website and, if applicable, further information that you have already provided for this purpose on our websites).
b. If we use so-called "social plug-ins" of social networks such as Facebook and Twitter on our websites, we integrate them as follows:
When you visit our websites, the social plug-ins are deactivated, i.e. no transmission of any data to the operators of these networks takes place. If you wish to use one of the networks, click on the respective social plug-in to establish a direct connection with the server of the respective network. If you have a user account with the network and are logged in there at the moment of activating the social plug-in, the network can assign your visit to our websites to your user account. If you wish to avoid this, please log out of the network before activating the social plug-in. A social network cannot assign a visit to other Daimler websites until you have also activated a social plug-in present there. When you activate a social plug-in, the network transmits the content that becomes available as a result directly to your browser, which integrates it into our web pages. In this situation, data transfers may also take place that are initiated and controlled by the respective social network. Your connection to a social network, the data transfers that take place between the network and your system, and your interactions on this platform are governed exclusively by the privacy policy of the respective network.
The social plug-in remains active until you deactivate it or delete your cookies. (see section 5.d of this data protection notice)
c. When you click on the link to an offer or activate a social plug-in, personal data may be transferred to providers in countries outside the European Economic Area that, from the perspective of the European Union ("EU"), do not ensure an "adequate level of protection" for the processing of personal data in line with EU standards. Please consider this circumstance before clicking on a link or activating a social plug-in and thereby triggering a transfer of your data.
d. We also use qualified service providers (IT service providers) to operate, optimize and secure our websites. We only pass on personal data to them insofar as this is necessary for the provision and use of the websites and their functionalities, for the pursuit of legitimate interests, for the fulfillment of legal obligations or insofar as you have consented to this (see section 3 of this privacy policy). You can find more details about the recipients in our Consent Management System.
e. We use qualified service providers to process payments. We only pass on personal data to them in pursuit of legitimate interests or if you have consented to this ("Legal basis" see section 3 of this data protection notice). List of service providers that receive personal data: Klarna Bank AB, PayOne GmbH
5. Cookies
a. Cookies may be used when you are visiting our websites. Technical-ly, these are so-called HTML cookies and similar software tools such as Web/DOM Storage or Local Shared Objects (so-called "Flash cookies"), which we collectively refer to as cookies.
b. Cookies are small files that are stored on your desktop, notebook or mobile device while you visit a website. Cookies make it possi-ble, for example, to determine whether there has already been a connection between the device and the websites; take into account your preferred language or other settings, offer you certain certain functions (e.g. online shop, vehicle configurator) or recognize your usage-based interests. Cookies may also contain personal data.
c. Whether and which cookies are used when you visit our websites depends on which areas and functions of our websites you use and whether you agree to the use of cookies that are not technically required in our Consent Management System. You will find further information and decision-making options here.
d. The use of cookies also depends on the settings of the web browser you use (e.g. Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Apple Safari, Mozilla Firefox). Most web browsers are preset to automatically accept certain types of cookies; however, you can usually change this setting. You can delete existing cookies at any time. You can delete Web/DOM storage and Local Shared Objects separately. To find out how this works in the browser or device you are using, please refer to the manufacturer's instructions.
e. The consent (= approval) to and rejection or deletion of cookies are tied to the device used and also to the web browser used in each case. If you use several devices or web browsers, you can make the decisions or settings differently in each case.
f. If you decide against the use of cookies or delete them, it may be that not all functions of our websites or individual functions are only available to you to a limited extent.
6. Security
7. Deleting your personal data
Your IP address and the name of your Internet service provider, which we store for security reasons, are deleted after seven days. Moreover, we delete your personal information as soon as the purpose for which it was collected and processed has been fulfilled. Beyond this time pe-riod, data storage only takes place to the extent made necessary by the legislation, regulations or other legal provisions to which we are subject in the EU or by legal provisions in third-party countries if these have an appropriate level of data protection. Should it not be possible to delete data in individual cases, the relevant personal data are flagged to restrict their further processing.

8. Rights of the Data Subject
b. Right to object
d. If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates legal requirements, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR).

You can use the Daimler Truck AG central access service to log on to all websites and applications of the Daimler Truck Group and its brands which are connected to this service. The applicable terms of use contain special data protection regulations. You can access these terms of use on the respective login pages of the connected websites and applications.
10. Data transfer to recipients outside the European Economic Area
a. When using service providers (see section "Use of service providers"), personal data may be transferred to recipients in countries outside the European Union ("EU"), Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway (= European Economic Area) and processed there.
b. The following countries provide an adequate level of protection for the processing of personal data in accordance with EU standards (so-called adequacy decision): Andorra, Argentina, Canada (limited), Faroe Islands, Guernsey, Israel, Isle of Man, Japan, Jersey, New Zealand, Switzerland, Uruguay, United Kingdom. With recipients in other countries, we agree to apply EU standard contractual clauses, binding corporate rules, or other permissible mechanisms to provide an appropriate level of protection in accordance with legal requirements.
