WHAT ARE THE PURPOSES OF AND THE LEGAL BASIS FOR THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL
DATA?

   
 * Visiting our Website
   
   DHL is committed to preserving the privacy of users of our websites. When you
   visit our web pages, The following data are collected: IP address, hostname
   of the accessing computer, website from which you accessed this website, a
   list of the sites you visited within the scope of our overall Internet
   presence, the date and duration of your visit, notification of whether the
   visit was successful, volume of data transferred, information about the
   identification data of the browser type and operating system used by you. 
   Temporary storage of this data is necessary during your visit to the website
   in order to allow the website to be delivered to you. Further storage in log
   files is performed to ensure the functionality of the website and the
   security of our IT systems. The legal basis for the processing of the
   aforementioned data categories is therefore Art. 6 (1) (f) of the European
   General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Due to the said purposes, in
   particular to guarantee security and a smooth connection setup, we have a
   legitimate interest to process this data.
   
   Additional personal information such as your name, address, telephone number
   or e-mail address is not collected unless you provide this data voluntarily,
   e.g. while completing an online contact form, as part of a registration,
   survey, competition or an information request.
   
   The data are deleted as soon as they are no longer needed to achieve the
   purpose for which they were collected. For the provision of the website, this
   is the case when the session terminates. The log files (access logs) are kept
   for administrators to access directly and exclusively for a period of 24
   hours. After that, they are only available indirectly through a restore from
   backup tapes and are permanently deleted after 30 days.
   
   As far as you have enabled geo localisation functions in your browser,
   respectively in your operating system we will use this data to offer you
   location-based services (e.g. location of the nearest branch, packing station
   etc.). The legal basis for geo-localization is your consent according Art. 6
   (1) (a) GDPR by enabling the respective function. We will not use this data
   for any other purpose. If you disable this function your data will be deleted
   in due time.

   
 * Use of Cookies
   
   This website uses cookies and similar technologies, (hereafter
   “technologies”), which enable us, for example, to determine how frequently
   our internet pages are visited, the number of visitors, to configure our
   offers for maximum convenience and efficiency and to support our marketing
   efforts.
   
   When you access our website, a Privacy Preference Center will inform you that
   technically necessary cookies are set and, in addition, that your consent is
   required to the use of certain technologies, such as analytical cookies or
   similar technologies.
   
   The processing of data by means of technically necessary cookies is based on
   our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR to ensure that you
   can use our website the best possible way, to ensure that our website
   operates correctly and to guarantee an convenient and undisturbed user
   experience. These kinds of cookies are stored exclusively for the duration of
   your visit to our website. They are automatically deleted when you close your
   browser.
   
   In addition, you will be informed via the Privacy Preference Center  that we
   use other technologies  (performance, functional or analytics technologies)
   for storing information about visitors who repeatedly access one of our
   internet pages. The purpose of using these technologies is to be able to
   offer you optimal user guidance as well as to "recognize" you and thus be
   able to present (as much as possible) diversified internet pages and new
   contents during repeated use. These technologies will only be processed on
   the basis of your prior given consent according to Art. (1) a) GDPR.
   
   You will find more information under the Privacy Preference Center  including
   the option to revoke a given consent.
   
   Notwithstanding the information in the Preference Center, and only if you
   have consented to the use of cookies and other technologies as described
   above, we also use them for the purposes described below.

   
 * Social Media
   
   We provide you our social media fan pages, such as Facebook, Instagram or
   LinkedIn to give you even more insights in our services and products, to
   better manage our relationship with you and to communicate with you. For more
   information, please visit our Privacy Notices on our social media fan pages.
   
   Therefore, our website contains links to the following social media networks:
   
    * Facebook (operated by: Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto,
      CA 94304, USA)
    * Instagram (operated by: Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto,
      CA 94304, USA)
    * LinkedIn (operated by: LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place,
      Dublin 2, Ireland)
    * YouTube (operated by: Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain
      View, CA 94043, USA)[TM(D1] [KI2]
   
   In these cases, a transfer of data to the social media operators mentioned
   before only takes place if the corresponding icon (e.g. the "f" of Facebook)
   is clicked. If you click on one of these icons, a page of the corresponding
   social media operator opens in a separate window.

   
   Use of Google Maps
   
   We offer you an improved user experience on this website by integrating
   Google Maps as part of the DHL Finder. With the DHL Finder you can search for
   our branches, Packstations and parcel shops, which are displayed on a Google
   Maps map. The use of Google Maps may indicate a transfer of personal data to
   the United States of America. The USA is not considered by the European Court
   of Justice to have an adequate level of data protection. In particular, there
   is a risk that your data may be subject to access by U.S. authorities for
   control and monitoring purposes and that no effective legal remedies are
   available. This data transfer will not occur without your prior knowledge or
   agreement. We will ask for your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6
   (1) a GDPR in conjunction with Art. 49 (1) a) GDPR before Google Maps are
   activated and data is transferred to the USA. We have no influence on the
   further data processing by Google (Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House,
   Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway,
   Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). We refer to the Privacy Policy of Google. Your
   consent will be asked again each time you visit the website. Of course you
   can also get information about DHL locations without using Google Maps.

   need an approximate origin and destination in order to give you a quote for
   your shipment as accurate as possible) and weight and dimension of the
   shipment. Depending on your request we might also ask the quantity, whether
   documents or dangerous goods are involved or whether it is palletized or

   eCommerce Solutions, DHL Paket]  and you will immediately receive a product

   optional add-ons.
   
   By clicking on the “continue to booking” button you will be forwarded to the
   respective business unit´s  booking tool system [MyDHL+, myDHLi, MyDHL
   Parcel]. Hence, on dhl.com we basically do not collect or otherwise process
   your personal data for our Get a Quote service. However, if data is
   nevertheless considered personal, such as the city and postcode, the legal
   basis for this is the contract in progress (Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR) and a
   legitimate interest in being able to submit our offer as accurately as
   possible (Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR).
   
   Provided that no statutory or contractual retention periods needs to be
   observed, your request will be stored for a maximum of 30 days with the
   relevant business unit which finally made the quote as proof of proper
   processing and for the purpose of further optimizing services. On dhl.com the
   respective data is stored for a maximum of 30 days if you have used the safe

   address, email address and phone number. This data will also be forwarded to
   the respective business units and is necessary to take steps at your request
   prior to entering into a contract and / or for the performance of a contract.

   relevant business unit which finally made the quote as proof of proper

   generates a list of the last shipment number searched for via the shipment
   search: This function saves you having to re-enter the shipment number when
   checking the shipping status of your shipment. In this context, you can name
   individual shipments according to your preference (“Shipment title"). For
   this purpose, the application saves a list of the last shipment searches in a

HOW ABOUT DATA SECURITY

DHL takes the security of your data very seriously. We have implemented various
strategies, controls, policies and measures to keep your data secure. We keep
our security measures under close review. We use safeguards such as firewalls,
network intrusion systems, and application monitoring. Where appropriate, we
secure your data by using pseudonymization and encryption techniques when
storing and transferring your data. For instance, your data is saved in a secure
operating environment which is not accessible to the public. In certain cases,
your personal data is encrypted by Secure Socket Layer technology (SSL) during
transmission. This means that an approved encryption procedure is used for
communication between your computer and the DHL servers if your browser supports
SSL. We ensure that there are strict physical access controls in our buildings
and certified data centers.

As a part of our security strategy, we have set up auditing programs to make
sure that our systems and services comply with the DPDHL information security
policy, and by extension the ISO 27001 standard.

In addition, we are taking a number of ongoing measures to reduce risk, such as
(but not limited to) training our employees regularly and organizing incident
simulation exercises by our Cyber Defense Center.

Should you wish to contact DHL by e-mail or contact forms, we would like to
point out that the confidentiality of the information sent cannot be guaranteed.
The contents of (e-mail) messages can be read by third parties. We therefore
recommend you send us confidential information only by post.
