In principle, LECO Corporation will not charge you for request processing, unless your requests are excessive, manifestly unfounded or if you request additional copies when exercising your right of access.

Viewing and/or modifying data
You can ask us at any time, by any means, to indicate which categories of your personal data LECO Corporation holds or are being processed, for which purposes, from which data source, and what retention period(s) is(are) applied.

Exercising your rights does not affect processing that has already taken place, unless incorrect data has been used in previous processing and it can be reprocessed with correct data.

Cookie Statement: des cookies et des technologies de suivi

LECO Corporation uses cookies and tracking technologies on our websites.

In this Cookie Statement, we inform you about our cookies practices, a listing of cookies that are always enabled and others that are enabled after consent, their purpose and details such as classification, provider/domain, and retention period before expiry.

This cookie statement applies to the following domains .

Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored on your computer to provide control for current functions while browsing our websites, for recognition of preferences on subsequent visits to our websites, and for third-party features.

We use some cookies as strictly necessary components of our websites.  We use other cookies in functional, analytical, and marketing categories only when you provide consent directly with myConsentChoice or when your browser provides preference information to myConsentChoice in the browser session.

You will be prompted with the myConsentChoice consent manager when visiting our websites. You can accept or reject all optional cookies or manage preferences within the consent manager. You can change your preferences to grant or withdraw consent at any time.

Consent Expiry
We remember your consent preferences for 30 days. You can change your consent preferences at any time by clicking on the Manage Consent link from our website's footer. You can then adjust the available preference sliders to ‘On’ or ‘Off’, and save by clicking ‘Save Choices'. You may need to refresh your page for your settings to take effect. The data sent by us and linked to cookies, user-identifiers (e.g., User-IDs) or advertising-identifiers are automatically deleted after the third-party expiry period. Monthly deletions for expired cookies and tracking technologies are processed automatically.

Google Processing

If you have given your consent, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, a web analysis service of Google Ireland Limited (“Google”) is then enabled on our websites. The use includes the “Universal Analytics” operating mode. This makes it possible to assign data, sessions, and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID and then analyse activities across devices.

Google may transfer to and process consent-granted personal data in the United States. However, as IP anonymisation (IP masking) is activated on our websites, your IP address will be shortened by Google in advance within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states per the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of our use of Google Analytics is not combined with other data from Google. Further information on terms of use and data protection can be found at https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or https://policies.google.com/?hl=en.

Purposes of Google Processing
Google will use personal data provided to evaluate your use of our websites, to compile reports on website activity and other services related to website use.

Legal Basis of Google Processing
Consent is the legal basis for Google Analytics.

Recipients or Categories of Recipients
Google is the recipient of the collected data and is an independent controller.

You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the Browser Add-on. Opt-out cookies will prevent future collection of your data when you visit our website. To prevent Universal Analytics from collecting data across different devices, you must opt-out on all systems used. If you click here, the opt-out cookie will be set: Disable Google Analytics.

Sovy or Leco don't have control over cookie expiry.  And even so, each third party provider (Google, HubSpot,..) has its own expiry timeline. So this cookie expiry statement is inaccurate (both sentences).

Des tiers et des transferts internationaux

LECO Corporation may engage third parties who process personal data on behalf of LECO Corporation as controller. These third-party sub-processors act on our instruction under contract and under the same purposes and lawful bases set out in this privacy statement These may be:
