If you are Shareholder of United Terra Enterprises PLC or of any of its subsidiaries we may provide you periodically with Business-Updates by email. The email will be sent to the email-address you provided to us.
Our Business-Update may contain a so-called web beacon (tracking pixel) or similar technical means. A web beacon is a 1×1 pixel, non-visible graphic that is related to the user ID of each Shareholder.
For each Business-Update sent, there is information about the address file used, the subject and the number of Business-Updates sent. In addition, it can be seen which addresses have not yet received the Business-Update, to which address it was sent and at which addresses the delivery failed. The opening rate including the information as to which addresses have opened the Business-Update is visible as well. We use this data for statistical purposes and to optimize the content and structure of our Business-Updates. This allows us to better align the information in our Business-Updates to the interests of our shareholders. The tracking pixel is deleted when you delete the Business-Update.
In order to prevent the use of the web beacon in our Business-Updates, to the extent not already the case by default, please set your email programme so that no HTML is displayed in messages. On the following pages, you will find explanations on how to activate this setting for the most common email programmes:

You may withdraw your consent for this processing at any time with effect for the future (see Section 11 Contact).

In addition, we will transfer your data to third parties or our subsidiaries as far as it is necessary for the use of the website, the processing of your contact requests and the analysis of your user behaviour. The use of the data forwarded for these purposes by third parties is strictly limited to the stated purposes.
Third-party service providers are explicitly mentioned in this Privacy Policy. An additional service provider to whom personal data collected via the website is passed on or who has or may has access to, is our hosting provider Host Europe GmbH, Hansestrasse 111, 51149 Cologne, Germany. The website is hosted on dedicated servers in Strassbourg, France and Cologne, Germany. The data is passed on for the purpose of providing and maintaining the functionalities of our website. For this processing we rely on our legitimate interests within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
We may transfer your data to third parties or our subsidiaries located abroad for the purpose of the data processing described in this Privacy Policy.
Any such third-party companies or our subsidiaries are obliged to protect the privacy of individuals to the same extent as we do. If the level of data protection in a country does not correspond to the Liechtenstein or European level, we ensure by contract that the protection of your personal data is equivalent to that in the EU at all times.
Certain third-party service providers have their registered office in the US. Further explanations on the data that may be transferred to the US can be found under Section 7 Note on data transfers to the US.
When you access our website we may collect information by means of cookies.
Cookies are information files that your web browser automatically stores on your computer’s hard drive when you visit our website. Cookies neither damage the hard disk of your computer nor do they transmit your personal data to us.
Among other things, cookies help us make your visit on our website easier, more pleasant and more meaningful.
Most Internet browsers automatically accept cookies and are stored as long as you do not don’t delete them. This process allows us to recognize your browser on your next visit. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or that a warning message will always appear when a new cookie arrives.
On the following pages, you will find explanations as to how to configure the processing of cookies in the most common browsers:
Please note that deactivating cookies may prevent you from using all the features of our website.
For the purposes of needs-based design and the continuous optimisation of our web pages, we may use the web analysis service Google Analytics. In this respect, pseudonymised user profiles are created and small text files (see Section 5 Cookies) stored on your computer are used. In addition to the data listed under Section 1 above, we may receive the following information generated by the cookie about your use of our website:
These data are sent to servers of Google Inc., a company of the holding company Alphabet Inc., in the US and stored there. As part of this, before this data is sent within EU member states or other states that are party to the agreement on the European Economic Area, the IP address is truncated through this website’s IP anonymization (“anonymizeIP”). The anonymized IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not consolidated with other data from Google. The entire IP address is sent to a Google server in the US and truncated there only in exceptional cases. In this case, we ensure by contractual means that Google Inc. observes a sufficient level of privacy protection.
The legal basis for this is the legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The foundation for processing user data lies in our legitimate interests in optimizing our online presence, particularly in terms of its reach and user-friendliness, as well as in presenting the content of our website in the best possible manner, ultimately serving the promotion of our business interests.
As an alternative to the browser plug-in, users can prevent data collection by Google Analytics on the website in future by clicking on this link. By doing so, an opt-out cookie is stored on the user’s end device. To delete user cookies (see Section 5 Cookies), the link must be clicked again.
We base the data processing on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in protecting our website from abusive automated crawling and from spam.
For the sake of completeness, we note that, as part of US legislation, US authorities are able to take surveillance measures, under which the general storage of all data sent from the European Union to the US is possible. This takes place without distinction, limitation or exception, on the basis of the objective pursued and without objective criteria that would allow it to limit access by US authorities to personal data and its subsequent use to specific, strictly limited purposes that justify access to this data.
Furthermore, we would like to point out that there are no legal remedies available in the USA for the data subjects from Liechtenstein or the EU that would allow them to gain access to the data concerning them and to obtain their correction or deletion, and there is no effective legal protection against general access rights of US authorities. We explicitly draw attention to this legal and factual situation to the data subject so that he or she may make an informed decision as to the consent to the use of his or her data.
For individuals residing in EU Member States or Liechtenstein, please note that from the point of view of the European Union and Liechtenstein, the US does not have sufficient data protection levels due, inter alia, to the issues mentioned in this Section. To the extent that we have explained in this Privacy Policy that recipients of data are located in the US, we will ensure that your data is adequately protected by our partners, either by way of a contract or by requiring certifications from the companies at issue under the Liechtenstein/EU-US.
You have the right to obtain information on the personal data that we store about you on request at any time.
In addition, you have the right to ask us to correct inaccurate data and to ask us to delete your personal data (including the data you provide us in the context of a job application), as long as there is no legal retention duty that requires us or legal basis that allows us to further process such data.
We note that in the case of deletion of your data, the full use of our website may no longer be possible or not possible to the full extent.
You can withdraw your consent to certain data processing at any time with effect for the future.
You also have the right to demand the release of the data you have given us (right to data portability). On request, we will also forward the data to a third party of your choice. You have the right to receive the data in a common file format.
This does not affect your right to complain to a data protection authority at any time.
We take reasonable technical and organizational security measures that we deem appropriate in order to protect your stored data against manipulation, loss, or unauthorized third party access. Our security measures are continually adapted to technological developments.
We also take internal data privacy very seriously. Our employees and the service providers are required to maintain secrecy and to comply with applicable data protection legislation. In addition, they are granted access to personal data only insofar as this is necessary for them to carry out their respective tasks or mandate.
Alternatively, you can write to:
United Terra Enterprises PLC, Feldkircher Strasse 31, FL-9494 Schaan
If you believe that the processing of your personal data is inconsistent or contradicts the applicable data protection laws you have the possibility to lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Authority of the Principality of Liechtenstein.
