We use this data to improve the customer visiting experience on our websites. No Personal Identifiable (PI) information is obtained data is obtained.

  Server related data
  For all visits we automatically collect some technical information on the web server:
  Name of the file accessed, date and time of access, amount of data transmitted, notification of successful access, web browser, requesting domain and the public IP addresses of the requesting computer.

  We store this information based on legitimate interest only to be able to detect misuse or technical problems. The server logs are stored for six months.

  Marketing Automation
  We are using a Marketing Automation System that can track web visitor page history and web form submissions, which in turn links this data to our Customer CRM/Marketing System. 

  Whenever a contact visits a marketing-tracked key page, the marketing Automation system correlates the behavior-analysis cookie ID with the incoming contact data submitted with the marketing page form. In this way the cookie ID becomes mapped to a CRM/Marketing contact ID, so we can determine who has been browsing the site. The system applies its configured duplicated-detection method to determine whether incoming landing page data should be mapped to an existing contact or to a new contact.

  By deactivating “functional cookies” on our websites using the cookie consent tool, you will trigger an “anonymize script “ in our marketing automation system which intern tells the system not to set non-essential cookies. This will mean that although we can process your form submission data, we would not be able to correlate your website activities on our sites with your contact data in our system.
