The following log files are processed automatically:

  • Type of Internet browser used

  • Language of the Internet browser used

  • Version of the Internet browser used

  • Operating system and version

  • Interface of the operating system

  • Websites that are accessed by the visitor’s system via our website

  • Internet service provider of the user

The log files contain your IP address and possibly other personal data. An assignment to you is thus possible in principle. However, we store your data only temporarily and not together with other personal data. The data are deleted as soon as you leave the website. The temporary processing and storage of the above data is necessary in order for us to be able to provide our website and ensure the security of our information technology systems. These purposes also justify our legitimate interest in processing the data on the legal basis of Article 6, para. 1, sentence 1, letter f GDPR.

4. Contact us by email, telephone, or fax

You can contact us by email, telephone, or fax. Your personal data transmitted in this way will be stored by us. The data will be processed only to the extent necessary to process your contact. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is Article 6, para. 1, sentence 1, letter f GDPR. It is in our legitimate interest to process the data for the purpose of processing and responding to your enquiry. The data are stored only until they are no longer required to achieve the purpose of communicating with you and the purpose of your contact has been fully clarified.

If your contact is aimed at concluding a contract with us, the additional legal basis for processing your personal data is Article 6, para. 1, sentence 1, letter b GDPR. These data are stored for as long as required for the execution of the contract or the pre-contractual measures. Furthermore, we store your data only to the extent necessary to comply with legal obligations (e.g. tax obligations) (Article 6, para. 1, sentence 1, letter c GDPR).

In addition to the data that you voluntarily provide to us, we may receive date and time of the transmission of your data to us as well as your IP address. The processing of this data corresponds to our legitimate interest (Article 6, para. 1, sentence 1, letter f GDPR) in order to ensure the security of our systems and to counteract misuse. These data, which we additionally collect during your contact, are deleted as soon as they are no longer required and at the latest once the purpose of your contact has been fully clarified.

You can tell us at any time (see point 1 above) that you want us to delete the data shared in the conversation. In this case, all personal data of the conversation will be deleted if permissible. A continuation of the conversation will thus not be possible.

5. Links to the websites and job portals of John Deere dealers and distributors

On our website, we use small icons and other links (e.g. within the vacancies listed). These can take you to the job portals and websites of authorised John Deere dealers and distributors. These are all hyperlinks. Thus, no data will be automatically transferred from you to John Deere dealers and distributors. Only when you click on the icons or the corresponding link and a new window opens in your browser with the website of the respective authorised dealer or sales partner will data be collected on this new website. This data collection is the responsibility of the respective authorised dealer or distribution partner. We have no influence on this. We do not receive any personal data about you from the dealers and distributors.

6. Links to social networks

On our website, we use small icons and other links that refer to the websites of John Deere Walldorf GmbH & Co. KG, Impexstraße 3, 69190 Walldorf, Germany or to John Deere dealers or distributors on third-party platforms (e.g. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, XING, and LinkedIn). In each case, these are hyperlinks. Thus, no data are transferred from you automatically but rather only when you click on the icons or the corresponding link and a new window opens in your browser with the website of the third-party provider.

7. Use of the Open Source software Matomo for data protection-compliant web analysis

We use the Open Source software Matomo on our website in order to statistically analyse website visits. For example, we receive statistical information about how many visitors come to our site, which content is popular, and whether certain pages are not found.

When you access a page, information about the terminal device you are using is recorded (IP address and meta-data or log files) and then immediately anonymised. Because we host the Matomo software ourselves, no data are transmitted to third countries or other third parties.

We collect and anonymise your IP address on the basis of our legitimate interest (Article 6, para. 1, sentence 1, letter f GDPR) because we use the statistical information to optimise our website content and take your interests into account to the greatest possible extent by anonymising this information. Because of the immediate anonymisation, we cannot assign the data to any persons or identifiers. Profiling is not carried out.

Information on the cookies used can be found in our cookie information at the end of this privacy policy.

8. Applicant data

On our website, we only provide information about vacancies at John Deere dealers and distributors. However, we do not accept applications ourselves.

If you would like to apply for one of the jobs displayed on our website, please contact the respective authorised dealer or sales partner directly. You can access the respective website via the links contained in the vacancies.

9. Use of service providers

a. General information

When processing your personal data, we may use service providers with whom we have concluded order processing agreements (e.g. for website hosting). If processors in a third country (i.e. not within the EU) process your data, we ensure that the level of protection of your data guaranteed by the GDPR is not undermined (Article 44 et seq. GDPR).  The legal basis for the use of service providers is Article 6, para. 1, sentence 1, letter f GDPR. The commissioning of service providers (specialists or other service providers in areas that we cannot serve ourselves) is in our legitimate interest. If you would like to receive a copy of the appropriate or adequate safeguards, please let us know (see Item 1 above). 

b. Hosting service provider

For the hosting of website data and our web portal, we use the hosting service provider Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen. The data are stored on servers of Hetzner. These servers are located in Germany.

The use of this hosting service provider is in the interest of a secure, efficient, and location-independent available storage and processing of data as well as a secure, fast, and efficient provision of our website, each by a professional provider (Article 6, para. 1, sentence 1, letter f GDPR).

We have concluded an order processing contract with the aforementioned hosting service provider.

10. Your rights

If we process your data, you are a “data subject” within the meaning of the GDPR. You have the following rights: Right of access, right of rectification, right of restriction of processing, right of deletion, right of information, and right of data portability. In addition, you have a right of objection, a right of revocation, and a right of complaint.

Below you will find some details on the individual rights: 

a. Right of access

You have the right to ask us to confirm whether we are processing your personal data. If we process your personal data, you have the right to access information – in particular about the processing purposes, categories of personal data, recipients or categories of recipients and, if applicable, the storage period. 

b. Right of rectification

You have the right to have the data we hold about you corrected and/or completed if they are inaccurate or incomplete. We will correct or complete your data without delay.

c. Right of restriction of processing

Under certain circumstances, you have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data. An example of this is if you dispute the accuracy of your personal data and we need to verify the accuracy for a certain period of time. For the duration of the verification, your data will be processed only in a restricted manner. Another example of the restriction is if we no longer need your data but you need it for litigation.

d. Right of deletion

In certain situations, you have the right to request that we delete your personal data immediately. This is the case if we no longer need your personal data for the purposes for which we collected the data or if we have processed your data unlawfully. Another example would be where we process your data based on your consent, you revoke your consent, and we do not process the data on any other legal basis. However, your right of deletion does not always exist. For example, we may process your personal data to comply with a legal obligation or because we need it for litigation. 

e. Right of information

If you have exercised your right to rectify, delete, or restrict the processing of your data, we are obliged to notify all recipients to whom we have disclosed your personal data of the rectification, deletion, or restriction of the processing of your data unless this proves impossible or involves an unreasonable amount of effort.

f. Right of data portability

Under certain conditions, you have the right to receive the personal data you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format as well as the right to have these data transferred to another controller. This is the case if we process the data either on the basis of your consent or on the basis of a contract with you and we process the data using automated procedures.

You have the right to request that we transfer your personal data directly to another controller insofar as this is technically feasible and does not affect the freedoms and rights of other parties.

g. Right of objection

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data based on Article 6, para. 1, sentence 1, letter e or f GDPR for reasons arising from your particular situation. This also applies to profiling referred to in these provisions.

After an objection, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms or the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defence of legal claims.

If we process your personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of such marketing. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to direct marketing. If you object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process it for these purposes. 

h. Right of revocation

In accordance with Article 7, para. 3, GDPR, you have the right to revoke your consent at any time.  The revocation of consent does not render the lawfulness of the processing retroactively invalid.

i. Right of complaint to a supervisory authority

You have the right to complain to a supervisory authority without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy. In particular, you may exercise your right to lodge a complaint in the Member State of your residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR.
