Our website uses so-called cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and by your browser. Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”, which are automatically deleted after the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored until you delete them. These cookies allow our website to recognize your browser the next time you visit it to make the settings that are appropriate for that browser faster. You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and allow cookies only in individual cases, the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or generally exclude and enable the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Not using cookies may result in slower processes, but does not limit the functionality of the PLMportal for the user.

The provider of the domain of the PLMportal collects and automatically stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Used operating system
  • URL from which the visitor came to PLMportal
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • Date and time of the server request
  • IP address used, anonymized (127.0.0.1)

These data are not assigned to any persons. A merge of these data with other data sources will not be done. We reserve the right to check this data retrospectively, if concrete indications for an illegal use become known.

Use of YouTube links
We occasionally link to videos from the provider YouTube, a Google company. YouTube also uses cookies to collect information about visitors to YouTube’s website. However, it also connects to the Google DoubleClick network. Starting the video could trigger further data processing. We have no influence on that. For more information about privacy at YouTube, please see their privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en&gl=de

Use of a provider of video stream hosting
Videos are included in some profiles of software and service solution providers in the community section of the PLMportal. To let users play them the PLMportal currently uses only the video player of the company Video-Streaming-Hosting.de, Steinmann GbR, hereinafter VSH, in Herford, Germany. When the videos are played, a connection is established between the user’s browser and the VSH server. It temporarily stores the IP address of the user to provide the videos. VSH also uses session cookies whose deactivation may affect the functionality of the video player. Personal data is not collected. For more information, see the privacy policy of VSH: https://www.video-stream-hosting.com/j/privacy

Web analysis with Matomo (formerly Piwik)
Our website uses the open source web analytics software Matomo (formerly Piwik) and uses cookies to statistically analyze visitor traffic. The IP address is anonymized prior to storage (e.g., 192.0.0.0). The information generated by a cookie about the use of this website cannot be assigned to specific persons and cannot be merged with other data sources. A disclosure to third parties does not occur. You can prevent the storage of these cookies, as mentioned in the section Cookies, by setting your browser accordingly.

Newsletter Subscription and Shipping
With the newsletter, the PLMportal informs about current events and comments on them at irregular intervals. It usually contains a summary of the news and articles published on the PLMportal, with a direct link to that content. If users want to receive the newsletter, an e-mail address is required. This e-mail address is checked to see if the user is also the owner or authorized user of this address. The e-mail address will only be used to send the newsletter. A transfer to third parties does not take place.

When registering to receive the newsletter, the IP address and the date of the registration are also stored. The storage is exclusively for the protection of the case that a third party has misused the address and has carried out the registration for the newsletter without the knowledge of the owner or authorized person. The consent to the storage and use of the data can be withdrawn at any time via a link in the newsletter itself or by sending a message to the PLMportal.
