2. Information on the joint responsibility agreement
In the context of providing support for key account customers, Daimler Truck AG and the central organization of Mercedes Benz Trucks in your home country (both "Joint Controllers") work together closely. This also pertains to the processing of your personal data.
We have concluded an agreement on this subject ("joint responsibility agreement") which serves to define the respective responsibilities of these companies for compliance with the obligations under European data protection law, particularly the European General Data Protection Regulation ("EU GDPR"), in relation to the processing of personal data. The joint responsibility agreement establishes the framework for the joint usage of personal data between the Joint Controllers as the parties jointly responsible for the processing. It also defines the principles and procedures that the Joint Controllers observe as well as the respective responsibilities assumed by each of the Joint Controllers.
The objective of the cooperation is to organize and conduct support for key account customers in the context of sales and marketing of vehicles, vehicle parts and services.
For more information on the significant provisions of the joint responsibility agreement, you can contact data.protection@daimler.com as listed above.
3. What data is processed for what purposes?
In the context of providing support for our key account customers, we process and use the following data in particular, provided doing so is necessary in the specific individual case in question:
The processing of this data serves to enable us to guarantee your company the best possible support when purchasing vehicles, spare parts and services and to provide customer-specific offers for vehicles, spare parts and services.
4. What is the basis (legal basis) for processing my data?
We process the categories of data specified above to the extent that doing so is necessary in order to safeguard our legitimate interests and does not outweigh the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subjects requiring protection of their personal data (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 (f) GDPR). Our legitimate interests stem from the ability to provide you, the customer, with optimal and individualized support and thus improve customer retention.
5. Will my data be shared?
We shall only regularly disclose the personal data transmitted in connection with the processes described above to a limited number of people with special functions, who will only be granted access to the personal data insofar as this is necessary for them to carry out their respective tasks. This applies not only for our employees, but also for contractors, IT service providers and Group companies if it should prove necessary for them to carry out their respective tasks.
We also make use of the services of further subcontractors for the data processing described above, such as IT or support service providers. These may also be Group entities belonging to Daimler Truck AG. This data is passed to such subcontractors. In this context, it will be ensured that the contractors are subject to the same contractual obligations regarding confidentiality, data protection and data security.
In certain cases, personal data may also be passed on to criminal prosecution, government or regulatory authorities if required by law.
6. Will my data also be transmitted to non-EU countries?
Personal data is generally not processed outside the EU/EEA. In exceptional cases, service providers who operate our systems for us, potentially in non-European countries, may be able to access the aforementioned data in the event of system maintenance. Our service providers do not actively process this data, but for organizational reasons, the possibility of access cannot be ruled out. We currently use a service provider in India for the operation of the systems used for the aforementioned purposes. If personal data is transmitted outside the EEA, the EU Commission's "standard contractual clauses," which can be accessed at https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data, shall generally apply.
7. How long will my data be stored?
We will store your personal data for as long as necessary for the fulfillment of the purposes described in this privacy statement. We also store personal data beyond that if we are required to do so by law. Contracts, for example, must be retained for a period of ten years. We will also store customer data until the end of the applicable limitation period to enable us to assert any legal claims.
8. What rights do I have?
You have comprehensive rights in regard to the processing of your data:
In the event that you would like to assert one of your rights vis-a-vis the Joint Controller or receive more detailed information on this subject, please send an e-mail to data.protection@daimler.com or contact Daimler Truck AG in writing.
9. Can I object to the processing of my personal data?
You have the right to object to the processing of personal data pertaining to you which is taking place on the basis of a legitimate interest in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 (f) GDPR for reasons arising from your specific situation at any time (Article 21 GDPR). We will no longer process your personal data unless we can prove compulsory, legitimate reasons for processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the processing is required to assert, exercise or defend against legal claims.
If you would like to object to the processing of your personal data, please send an e-mail to data.protection@daimler.com or contact Daimler Truck AG in writing.
10. Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority
If you feel that we are violating the GDPR by processing personal data about you, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, e.g. a data protection agency responsible for your place of residence, workplace or location where the alleged data protection violation occurred.
