TRUMPF Financial Service will, except for the data required for the maintenance of your account and to complete the financing request, block the personal data and documents and delete them after expiry of tax and commercial regulations.

The TRUMPF Finance Manager functions in such a way that users (companies or sole proprietors) calculate their demand for financial products as part of the procurement of capital goods online and request offers. This demand is made available exclusively for TRUMPF Financial Services in a structured form. Should you require further offers from financing partners, these requirements will only be made available to the financing partners you select.

TRUMPF Financial Services and if required other financial service providers will then have the opportunity to submit suitable financing solutions (hereinafter referred to as "Offers") to the User. The user can decide on an offer and the conclusion of the transaction is requested. When registering the user, details of a contact person must be provided. This information is required to establish contact between the user and TRUMPF Financial Services.

We use the tool Google Analytics by Google (Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). For Europe: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland).

Google Analytics works with text files that are stored on your device (so-called “cookies”) in order to obtain information on your website use.  Google uses this information on our behalf in order to provide us with evaluations of your website use, reports on activities on the website and further services.  The data regarding your website use, collected with the help of “cookies”, are usually transferred to the servers of Google in the USA and are stored there.  Data that may otherwise exist about you and is deposited at Google will not be combined.

Moreover, we use the masking function “anonymizeIP “. Before your IP address is transferred to the Google servers in the USA, it is shortened in the EU. Unshortened IP addresses are transferred in rare cases only and are subsequently shortened on servers in the USA.  You may avoid this processing by means of the following measures:

It is possible to set your browser so that no “cookies” are stored.  This may, however, cause our website to not function properly.  Furthermore, it is possible to prevent data collection by means of a browser add-on by Google. This add-on can be found here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en

As an alternative to the browser add-on, e.g. if you use a smartphone and/or tablets, you can prevent data collection by Google Analytics by clicking here. This will set a cookie that prevents data collection.  If you revisit our website with a different device or browser, or if you have erased your cookies, you have to set the cookie again.

You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en

This prevents the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of this data by Google.
