DHL Privacy Policy (Summary)

DHL ensures the privacy of visitors to the company's website. When you visit our websites, the servers always store for connection and configuration and security purposes temporarily the data of the computer connecting to our website, the list of websites visited on the website, the date and duration of the visit, the IP address of the device, the identification data of the browser and operating system used, as well as information about the website through which you connected to our website. Additional personal data such as name, address, telephone number or e-mail address are not collected unless provided voluntarily, e.g. when filling out an online contact form, as part of a registration, survey, competition, contract fulfillment or request information.

The legal basis for the processing of these categories of data is Article 6(1)(f) of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). In view of the above objectives, in particular in view of the need to guarantee the security and smooth establishment of the connection, we have a legitimate interest in the processing of this data.

In addition, we use cookies, tracking tools and targeting tools. For more information, see the section Web presence and site optimization.

When you turn on location in your browser, according to your operating system, we'll use that data to offer location-based services (e.g., we'll provide the location of the nearest branch, packing facility, etc.). We will not use this data for any other purpose. If you disable this feature, the data is deleted immediately.

Due to contracts and in order to provide services and obligations, we also need personal data related to contracts concluded with you. This data is used, as the case may be, to perform a contract (shipment), manage customer data, handle payments, or assess creditworthiness. Certain shipment data shall also be transmitted to the authorities of the country of transit or destination for customs and tax or security checks, in accordance with the laws of that country. The information provided usually includes: the name and address of the freight forwarder, the name and address of the consignee, a description of the goods, the number of pieces, the weight and value of the shipment.

The legal basis in this case is usually Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, since the processing is for the performance of a contract to which you are a party.

For more information on data protection in the context of specific services or products, see Products and services.

If you are already a DHL customer your address details (e.g. name, address) will be processed in order to contact you and provide you with the latest information regarding offers, properties, products and services.

We use tracking software to see how many users visit our site and how often they do so. We do not use this software to collect individual personal data or individual IP addresses. This data is used for statistical purposes and to improve the website only in an anonymous and abbreviated form.

"Cookies" are small files that allow us to store information related to your device as well as to you, especially when you visit one of our websites. Cookies help us determine how often we visit our websites and the number of visitors. They help us set up offers to make them as helpful and effective as possible.

Pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, we use "session cookies" in order to optimise the website and to guarantee its convenient and user browse seamlessly. Cookies are stored only for the duration of your visit to websites and are automatically deleted when you close your browser.

In addition, we use "persistent cookies" to store information about users who visit our websites multiple times. The purpose of the use of cookies is to provide optimal support to the user, as well as to "recognize" the user, thereby enabling the presentation (as far as possible) of diverse websites and new content during subsequent visits. Our website contains a banner with cookies, indicating that further browsing of the website constitutes consent to the storage of cookies on your device. The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies for the purposes of analysis is Art. 6 para. 1 GDPR.

There are four exceptions:

1) Eloqua tracking cookie. The content of this persistent cookie is limited to the identification number and the cookie itself is used in the same way as all other persistent cookies. However, if you contact DHL using certain online contact forms that contain logistical content, your email address will be added to the cookie and create an individual online activity profile for that user. The same contact forms also allow you to update your marketing email. Giving us consent also gives us the opportunity to present personalised content, offers or promotions that may be of interest to you.

If you choose not to update your email for marketing purposes, we will not be able to contact you in the future and your DHL email will only be used confidentially for internal purposes to understand your individual online activities. This means that we will continue to present you with new and improved website content tailored to your specific needs.
