The period for which we store your personal data varies depending on the purpose of the processing. This period may either be determined by other rules or depending on the contract we have concluded with you.

  1. How do we use Cookies

A cookie is a small text file stored on your computer. For example, the information in the file is used to facilitate the use of the site. There are different types of cookies. A permanent cookie remains on the visitor’s computer for a certain amount of time. A session cookie is stored temporarily in the computer’s memory while a visitor is on a web page. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. 

Upptec websites use cookies on the one hand to improve the functionality of the website and partly because, for example, generate visitor statistics. Upptec stores no cookies for more than two years. In addition to the cookies created by Upptec, cookies can be created by other services, for example. Google, HubSpot, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn and X (Twitter) that we use on our website.

Anyone who does not want to accept cookies can set their browser so that it automatically denies cache storage or informs the user each time a site requests to store a cookie. Browser features usually also delete previously stored cookies.

  1. Embedded content from other websites

Content on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, forms articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

  1. Analytics

We use Google Analytics to get us informed about how many visitors our web page has. The data collected contains date, time and a non identifiable IP address (as per Google Analytics “anonymize the IP address” function), pages visited, technical information about browser and operating system used. We store the data for 38 months the reason being to be able to compare metrics year over year.

We currently use a function from Linked in called “The LinkedIn Insight Tag” which enables the collection of data regarding members’ visits to our website, including the URL, referrer, IP address, device and browser characteristics, timestamp, and page views. This data is encrypted, then de-identified within seven days, and the de-identified data is deleted within 90 days. LinkedIn does not share the personal data with us, it only provides aggregated reports about our website audience and ad performance. LinkedIn also provides retargeting for our website visitors, enabling us to show personalized ads off our website by using this data, but without identifying you as a LinkedIn member. LinkedIn members can control the use of their personal data for advertising purposes through their account settings.

Hubspot  – We are currently utilizing a third party CRM system to get more insights about our visitors, customers and partners and via the CRM store contact details, partner and deal details and additional website related information. In addition HubSpot sets a number of tracking cookies when a visitor lands on our website to understand user behavior better.
