Policy
Siemens Commitment to Data Privacy Protection
Protecting the security and privacy of your
personal data is important to Siemens;
therefore, we conduct our business in compliance
with applicable laws on data privacy protection
and data security. We hope the policy outlined
below will help you understand what data Siemens
may collect, how Siemens uses and safeguards
that data and with whom we may share it.
Personal data
Through our Web sites, Siemens will not collect
any personal data about you (e.g. your name,
address, telephone number or e-mail address),
unless you voluntarily choose to provide us with
it (e.g. by registration, survey), respectively,
provide your consent, or unless otherwise
permitted by applicable laws and regulations for
the protection of your personal data.
Purpose of Use
When you do provide us with personal data, we
usually use it to respond to your inquiry,
process your order or provide you access to
specific information or offers. Also, to support
our customer relationship with you:
we may store and process personal data and share
it with our worldwide affiliates to better
understand your business needs and how we can
improve our products and services; or
we (or a third party on our behalf) may use
personal data to contact you about a Siemens
offer in support of your business needs or to
conduct online surveys to understand better our
customers' needs.
If you choose not to have your personal data
used to support our customer relationship
(especially direct marketing or market
research), we will respect your choice. We do
not sell or otherwise market your personal data
to third parties, except to Siemens affiliates.
Purpose Limitation
Siemens will collect, use or disclose personal
data supplied by you online only for the
purposes disclosed to you, unless the
disclosure:
is a use of the personal data for any additional
purpose that is directly related to the original
purpose for which the personal data was
collected,
is necessary to prepare, negotiate and perform a
contract with you,
is required by law or the competent governmental
or judicial authorities,
is necessary to establish or preserve a legal
claim or defense,
is necessary to prevent fraud or other illegal
activities, such as willful attacks on Siemens
information technology systems.
Communications or Utilization Data
Through your use of telecommunications services
to access our Web site, your communications data
(e.g. Internet protocol address) or utilization
data (e.g. information on the beginning, end and
extent of each access, and information on the
telecommunications services you accessed) are
technically generated and could conceivably
relate to personal data. To the extent that
there is a compelling necessity, the collection,
processing and use of your communications or
utilization data will occur and will be
performed in accordance with the applicable data
privacy protection legal framework.
Non-Personal Data Collected Automatically
When you access our Web sites, we may
automatically (i.e., not by registration)
collect non-personal data (e.g. type of Internet
browser and operating system used, domain name
of the Web site from which you came, number of
visits, average time spent on the site, pages
viewed). We may use this data and share it with
our worldwide affiliates to monitor the
attractiveness of our Web sites and improve
their performance or content.
"Cookies" - Information Stored Automatically on
Your Computer
When you view one of our Web sites, we may store
some data on your computer in the form of a
"cookie" to automatically recognize your PC next
time you visit. Cookies can help us in many
ways, for example, by allowing us to tailor a
Web site to better match your interests or to
store your password to save you having to
re-enter it each time. If you do not wish to
receive cookies, please configure your Internet
browser to erase all cookies from your
computer's hard drive, block all cookies or to
receive a warning before a cookie is stored.
Children
Siemens will not knowingly collect personal data
from children without insisting that they seek
prior parental consent if required by applicable
law. We will only use or disclose personal data
about a child to the extent permitted by law, to
seek parental consent pursuant to local law and
regulations or to protect a child. The
definition of "child" or "children" should take
into account applicable laws as well as national
and regional cultural customs.
Security
To protect your personal data against accidental
or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration and
against unauthorized disclosure or access,
Siemens uses technical and organizational
security measures.
Links to Other Web Sites
Siemens Web sites contain links to other Web
sites. Siemens is not responsible for the
privacy practices or the content of other Web
sites.
Questions and Comments
Siemens will respond to reasonable requests to
review your personal data and to correct, amend
or delete any inaccuracies. If you have any
questions or comments about the Siemens Data
Privacy Protection Policy (e.g. to review and
update your personal data), please click on
"Contact Us" in the upper right-hand corner of
this window, and select "About Siemens", "About
us - questions about Siemens". As the Internet
matures, so will our Data Privacy Protection
Policy. We will post changes to our Data Privacy
Protection Policy on this page. Please check
this page regularly to keep up-to-date
