Privacy Policy Totech Europe

At Totech Europe we’re committed to protecting and respecting your privacy…

This policy explains when and why we collect personal information about people who visit our website, how we use it, the conditions under which we may disclose it and how we keep it secure. It sets out the conditions under which we process any information that we collect from you, or that you provide to us. In the context of the law and this notice, “process” means collect, store, transfer, use or otherwise act on information.

Collecting and processing of personal information

The personal information we collect, and process include: first name, last name, e-mail address, phone number, company name, country, and IP address. Next to that we collect information regarding which pages are accessed and when. We obtain this information when you use our website, for example, when you contact us about our products & services, when you wish to download technical content or if you register to join our mailing list to receive our newsletters.

We may process your information based on legitimate interest, either to you or to us. However, we will only do so after careful consideration of:

  • Whether the same objective could be achieved through other means;
  • Whether processing (or not processing) might cause you harm;
  • Whether you would expect us to process your data, and whether you would consider it reasonable to do.

How do we use your personal information

Totech Europe uses your Personal Information to help you quickly find goods, services, or information on the site. We may use your information to:

  • Seek your views or comments on the services we provide;
  • Notify you of changes to our services;
  • Send you communications which you have requested and that may be of interest to you. This could include information about events, product updates, technology downloads and promotions of our goods and services.

We will not sell or rent your information to third parties. We will not share your information with third parties for marketing purposes. Your personal information may be accessible to our third-party service providers, agents, subcontractors, and other associated organisations for the purposes of completing tasks and providing services to you on our behalf (for example to send you mailings). When we use third-party service providers, we only disclose the personal information that is necessary to deliver the service. We have a data processing agreement in place that requires them to keep your information secure. Please be reassured that we will not release your information to third parties for them to use for their own direct marketing or any other purpose, unless you have requested us to do so, or we are required to do so by law, for example, by a court order or for the purposes of prevention of fraud or other crime. We track the domains from which this site is visited and use that data to analyse this for trends and statistics, and then discard it. If you choose not to have your personal information used as a basis for further contact with you by Totech Europe or one of its business partners, you can still use most of this site. You merely will not be able to access areas that require registration or receive downloads.

How do we protect your personal information

Totech Europe does not provide the technologies used to build its site, and therefore neither recommends nor endorses the same. Any information regarding identified technologies, their capabilities, limitations, applications, etc., should be sought directly from their manufacturers.

This may happen if any of our servers are from time to time located in a country outside of the EU. These countries may not have similar data protection laws to the EU. By submitting your personal data, you’re agreeing to this transfer, storing or processing. If we transfer your information outside of the EU in this way, we will take steps to ensure that appropriate security measures are taken with the aim of ensuring that your privacy rights continue to be protected as outlined in this Policy. If you use our services while you are outside of the EU, your information may be transferred outside the EU to provide you with those services.
