With your consent to the collection, processing and use of your data, you can subscribe to our newsletters on various topics, with which we inform you regularly about products, training offers, learning materials, events and news. To subscribe to our newsletter, we use the so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after your registration, we will send you an email to the email address you provided, in which we ask you to confirm your newsletter subscription. In order to prove your registration and, if necessary, to be able to clarify a possible misuse of your personal data, we log the subscription to the newsletter. We save the sending of the confirmation mail and the receipt of your hereby requested response as well as the data of the registration and confirmation. The data will be used solely by Heidelberg Engineering and will not be passed on to third parties. If you do not confirm your registration within two weeks, your information will be deleted.

The cookies are only generated if you have activated “Google Analytics” in our consent management tool Usercentrics. The legal basis is Article 6 paragraph 1 s. 1 lit. a GDPR.
The information generated by the cookies and regarding your behaviour when using the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. If the IP anonymisation is activated, Google will truncate/anonymise the last octet of the IP address for Member States of the European Union as well as for other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transferring data. Only in exceptional cases, the full IP address is sent to Google servers in the USA and then shortened.
On behalf of the website provider, Google will use this information for the purpose of analysing your behaviour when you are using the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website provider. Google will not link your IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics to any other data stored by Google.
You may disable cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser. However, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. Furthermore, you can object to forwarding the data collected with cookies when you visit this website (including the IP address) to Google and prevent Google from processing of data by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en-GB.

The YouTube website is operated by YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA (“YouTube”), a subsidiary of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. In the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland, the service is provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. The legal basis is Article 6 paragraph 1 s. 1 lit. a GDPR.
If you have activated “YouTube Video” in our consent management tool Usercentrics and visit a subpage of our website in which a YouTube video is embedded, YouTube will receive the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. In addition, the data listed in the section “Collection of personal data when visiting our website” of this Privacy Policy will be transmitted.
If you have deactivated “YouTube Video” in our consent management tool Usercentrics and visit a subpage of our website that uses a link to a YouTube video, no personal data will initially be transmitted to YouTube. This is ensured by using the so-called two-click solution. For this purpose, the area of the webpage on which the video is placed is represented by a graphic that serves as a placeholder. Only when you click the “Accept” button, the video is embedded and YouTube receives the aforementioned information.
Once YouTube videos are embedded based on your consent, we have no influence on the then collected data and data processing procedures, nor are we aware of the full scope of the data collection, the purposes and the storage periods. YouTube processes your data regardless of whether you have an account with YouTube and are logged in there. If you are logged in, the data collected by YouTube will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not want the assignment to your YouTube account, you must log out before activating the button. This consent activates “YouTube Video” in Usercentrics and thus applies to the entire website.
YouTube stores your data as user profiles and uses them for purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-driven design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (also for users who are not logged in) for the display of demand-driven advertising and to inform other YouTube users about your activities. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact YouTube to exercise this right.
