The topic of data protection is very important to us. Here you will find valuable information on your personal data protection.
Scope
This privacy statement informs users about the nature, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the responsible provider, Altra, Mühlenstrasse 56 8201 Schaffhausen, phone: +41 52 632 17 17, e-mail: info@altra-sh.ch, on this website.
Access data/server log files
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. The access data includes:
- Name of the retrieved web page
- Date and time of retrieval
- Data volume transferred
- Message about successful retrieval
- Browser type and version, the user's operating system
- Referrer URL (the URL pointing to our website, e.g. Google search)
- IP address and the requesting provider.
The provider uses the log data only for statistical evaluations for the purpose of operation, security and optimization of the offer. However, the provider reserves the right to subsequently review the log data if there is a justified suspicion of illegal use based on concrete indications.
Handling personal data
Personal data is information that can be used to identify a person, i.e. information that can be traced back to a person. This includes the name, email address or telephone number. But also data about preferences, hobbies, memberships or which websites were viewed by someone count as personal data.
Personal data is only collected, used and passed on by the provider if this is legally permitted or the users consent to the data collection.
Protection of personal data
We have taken technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from loss, destruction, manipulation and unauthorized access. Our security measures are continuously revised and optimized in line with technological developments.
When you use a service on our website, your personal data is transmitted to us. To prevent them from falling into the wrong hands, we encrypt them using the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) procedure. The SSL procedure is currently the most common and most secure data transmission procedure on the Internet.
How does the SSL process work?
The SSL (Secure Socket Layer) process protects data that a customer sends over the Internet to a company's server. SSL provides threefold protection:
- Your input to be transmitted is encrypted.
- It is ensured that the form is returned only to the server from which it was opened.
- A check is made to ensure that the data reaches its respective recipient complete and unchanged.
- SSL comes into play whenever you see a small (usually green) lock on your screen in the browser bar.
Dealing with contact requests
When contacting us via our contact form, the information provided by the user will be stored for the purpose of processing the request and in the event that follow-up questions arise. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
Use of third-party services and content
It may happen that third-party content, such as videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, RSS feeds or graphics from other websites are integrated within this online offer. This always requires that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as "third-party providers") perceive the IP address of the user. Without the IP address, they could not send the content to the browser of the respective user. The IP address is thus necessary for the display of this content. We endeavor to use only such content whose respective providers use the IP address only for the delivery of the content. However, we have no influence if the third-party providers store the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. Insofar as this is known to us, we inform the users about it.
