BASF is delighted that you have visited our website and thanks you for your interest in our company. We take the protection of your personal data seriously and want you to feel safe when you are visiting our Internet site.

We would like to inform you in our data protection declaration what information we collect at BASF while you are visiting our website and how this is used.


Collecting data



When you visit the BASF Investor Relations website, general information is collected automatically (in other words, not by means of registration) which is not used as personal data. The web servers that are used store data by default:
  • The name of your internet service provider
  • The website from which you visited us
  • The websites which you visit when you are with us
  • Your IP address

This information is analysed in anonymised form. It is used solely for the purpose of improving the attractiveness, content and functionality of our website. Where data is passed on to external service providers, we have taken technical and organisational measures to ensure that the data protection regulations are observed.

Collecting and processing personal data



Personal data is only collected when you provide us with this in the course of, say, registration, by filling out forms or sending emails, and in the course of ordering products or services, inquiries or requests for material.

The database and your information remain with our company and our provider. Your personal data will not be made available to third parties in any form by us or by persons instructed by us.
