Bene is committed to the protection of your privacy. Therefore our activities are in line with applicable legislation on the protection of privacy and data security. Please read on which information we collect, how we process it and who we pass it on, as the case may be:

Personal data

We do not collect any personal information such as names, addresses, telephone numbers or e-mail addresses from our website unless you disclose such data to us on a voluntary basis (e.g. through requests or registration) or have allowed us to do so, or if applicable law on data protection so permits.

Purpose

In principle, the information you have provided is used to answer your requests, process your orders or enable access to selected information content or offers. With a view to facilitating customer relations, storing and processing your personal data may be necessary to better respond to your requests or improve our products and services. We shall neither sell to third parties nor market your personal data in any other way.

  • for another purpose directly related to the original purpose of collection
  • for preparing, negotiating or performing a contract between us
  • by virtue of any legal obligation, official order or warrant
  • to justify, protect or avert legal claims

Disclosure of information related to communication or use

If accessed via telecommunication services, our websites automatically collect technical information related to such communication (e.g. IP address) or use (e.g. session start and time, telecommunication service used). Such data may involve disclosure of personal information. If mandatory, such collection, processing or use of communication or use-related data shall be subject to the provisions under privacy law.
