We collect and process your data only for specific purposes. These purposes may result from technical requirements, contractual obligations or requests on the part of users.

For technical reasons, certain data has to be collected and saved when https://cz.dbcargo.com/ is visited (such as the date and duration of the visit, the pages used, the identification data of the browser and Operating system type used, and the website from which you came to visit us).
For contractual reasons, we also need personal data in order to perform our services and to perform the contracts that we have concluded with you.

If you contact us, we will process the personal data you have provided in the course of our correspondence with you.

Legal basis for data processing:

If we ask for and receive your consent to perform processing operations on your personal data, your consent is considered, in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), to give us the legal basis to perform such processing operations.

If we process personal data that is required in order to perform a contract that we have concluded with you, then the contract is the legal basis in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Article 6(1)(b) GDPR also applies to processing operations that are required in order for us to take steps before a contract is entered into, e.g. in the event of enquiries relating to our products or services.

If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires us to process personal data – such as a tax obligation – then the legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.

We store and analyse user data obtained from online sources pseudonymously so that we can continually improve our offering. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

For the purpose of performing a contract, it is generally necessary for us to involve processors, from parties such as computer centre operators, printing or shipping service providers, or other parties involved in performing the contract, who are bound by instructions from us.

The external service providers that we hire to process data are carefully selected and subject to strict contractual obligations. The service providers follow our instructions, and this is guaranteed by strict contractual regulations, technical and organisational measures, as well as supplementary checks and controls.

Furthermore, transmission of your data only takes place where you have given your express consent or on the basis of a statutory requirement.

Data will not be transferred to third countries outside the EU/EEA or to an international organisation unless appropriate guarantees have been provided. These include the EU standard contractual clauses and an adequacy decision from the European Commission.

The data is only stored as long as it is needed. The duration of the storage depends therefore on the respective purpose. The purpose can result from the contract or also from legal regulations for the storage of business documents or other documents. Therefore, no generally valid storage period can be indicated here.

We hereby inform you about the data processing regarding our sales system "CASA" (customer services and sales application). 

DB Cargo AG works closely with its subsidiaries and national companies in the Cargo business unit of DB AG to ensure smooth and effective sales and customer support. Contact details for business transactions are shared in a company master database in order to provide the best possible service. 

For this purpose, a joint responsibility agreement in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR has been concluded between the contracting parties.
