Functional cookies
Functional cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. We use these cookies to ensure an optimal user experience. Functional cookies are present immediately when you open the website and will remain present even if you, as a user, do not give permission to place cookies. Functional cookies are necessary for our configurators to function properly, for example. For example, if you come back to our configurator to complete your request, you can simply complete the fields already filled in with the information stored by your computer.

Analytical cookies
We use analytical cookies to continuously optimise our website. These statistics show us how often our website and its pages are visited, what information visitors are looking for and give us an insight into the number of visitors to the website and their geographical data, the duration of the visit to the website, the pages viewed, the operating system and the device used to access the website, and how the visitor came to be on the Bosch Beton website. By analysing the anonymous click paths, we can better tailor the website to the interests of our visitors. This enables us to continuously improve our services. The data that we collect via these cookies is anonymous and cannot be traced back to individuals.

We also use Google Analytics to analyse this data properly. Google cookies are placed on our website as part of this service. We use the services of Google Analytics for analytical data about our website. Google may provide this information to third parties if Google is legally obliged to do so, or insofar as third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. We have no influence on this. We have not given Google permission to use the information obtained for other Google services.

The information that Google collects is anonymised as much as possible. Your IP address is explicitly not provided. The information is transferred to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google claims to adhere to the Privacy Shield principles and has joined the Privacy Shield Program of the U.S. Department of Commerce. This is considered an adequate level of protection for the processing of personal data.
