6. Cookies and Google Analytics

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the website function, ensure its security, enable traffic analysis and improve user experience.
Our website uses Google Analytics, which helps us understand how visitors use the website: which pages are visited, how long visitors stay on them, what devices or browsers are used and similar information.
Google Analytics cookies are used only with your consent. You may refuse the use of analytical cookies or change your choice at any time if a cookie management tool is implemented on the website.
The website may use the following categories of cookies:

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are required for the website to function properly. They may be used to ensure website security, form functionality, saving user preferences or technical website functionality.
Strictly necessary cookies are used without separate consent, as the website could not function properly without them.

Analytical Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the website. Analytical cookies are used only with your consent.
Our website uses Google Analytics for analytics purposes.

Marketing Cookies

We do not currently use marketing cookies on the website, unless otherwise indicated in the website’s cookie management window.
If we start using marketing cookies in the future, they will be used only with your consent.

7. Social Networks and External Links

Our website may contain links to social network accounts or other external websites.
Social network plugins are not used on the website. This means that simply visiting our website does not transfer data to social network platforms through plugins.
When you click on a social network link or another external link, you will be redirected to the website of the relevant third party. In such cases, the processing of your data is governed by the privacy rules of that third party.
The website may also contain links to other companies of the PIT Group or related companies. Such links are provided for informational purposes only. Personal data submitted through the PIT Deutschland website contact form is not automatically transferred to such companies unless this is necessary to respond to your enquiry or you have requested communication with another company.

Service providers may process personal data only in accordance with our instructions and only to the extent necessary to provide their services.

9. Transfer of Data Outside the European Economic Area

As a rule, we do not directly transfer personal data outside the European Economic Area, except in cases where service providers are used and such transfer may occur in the process of providing services, for example when using Google or Microsoft services.
If personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, we ensure that appropriate safeguards provided for under applicable law are applied, such as standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or other lawful data transfer mechanisms.

10. How Long We Store Personal Data

We store personal data no longer than necessary to achieve the purposes for which it was collected.

After the retention period expires, the data is deleted or anonymised, unless applicable law permits or requires longer retention.

11. Data Security

We apply technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, disclosure or destruction.

These measures may include:

• access rights restrictions;
• user authentication;
• password policy;
• server and website security measures;
• backups;
• employee confidentiality obligations;
• IT security measures;
• data processing agreements with service providers;
• incident management procedures.

Despite the security measures applied, the use of websites and electronic communications cannot be fully protected against all possible risks. We therefore recommend that you carefully assess what information you provide through the website forms.
