Scope of the processing of personal data
We only process our users’ personal data insofar as this is necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services.
The processing of our users’ personal data only takes place regularly with the user’s consent.
An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.
Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 letter a of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.
When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, Art. 6 para. 1 letter b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures.
Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 letter c GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 letter d GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 para. 1 letter f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
Data erasure and storage duration
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies.
Data may also be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject.
The data will also be blocked or erased if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.
Your rights as a data subject
You have both a right to information and the right to be actively informed by us at the time your personal data is collected. The General Data Protection Regulation stipulates which data we may collect under certain conditions and what information we must provide to you in the two cases mentioned above and how.
In total, this is the information that we present to you here, combined for the sake of simplicity, at least taking into account Articles 12 – 22 of the GDPR and, as far as possible, explaining it here:
- Name and contact details of the controller and data protection officer, if available. Are included at the beginning of the privacy policy.
- the purpose of the processing and the legal basis for the processing as well as whether the collection/processing of the data must take place for legal reasons. There is an introductory general note in this privacy policy and specific information in each case. The information and, if applicable, the consent of the data subject is required if the original purpose changes or is to be changed. If we collect and process your personal data for a specific purpose, we will inform you in advance of any planned changes to this purpose.
- If data is collected on the basis of a legitimate interest, you will be informed of the nature of the legitimate interest at the time of collection.
- We will be happy to inform you of the type or category of personal data if it is not automatically apparent from the collection.
- The recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data are or have been disclosed are exclusively the employees of our company and, if applicable, processors with whom we have concluded a legally compliant agreement.
- If possible, the planned storage period or the criteria for determining this period. In principle, we store business documents in accordance with applicable law or for 10 years / 6 years or only as long as we need the data to process your request or as long as the legitimate interest or legal basis permits or requires it.
- You have the right to object to the collection of data at any time; please inform us accordingly.
- You also have the right to rectification, erasure and restriction of processing of personal data concerning you and this will be implemented upon request or if we recognize it ourselves.
- You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
- You have the right to be informed of the source from which your data originates if the personal data was not collected directly from you. If this is the case, we will provide you with this information in accordance with Art. 14 of the GDPR.
- If available, you will receive information on automated decision-making, including profiling in accordance with Article 22 (1) and (4) GDPR and meaningful information on the type of collection and processing, as well as the scope and intended effects of such processing for the data subject.
- You have the right to be informed whether personal data has been transferred to a third country or to an international organization. If this is the case, you will receive information about the appropriate guarantees in connection with the transfer of the data in parallel with the actual information.
- In addition to the rights already mentioned, you also have the following rights, the right to data portability and the right to withdraw previously given consent.
You can exercise your right to information at any time, please contact us at any time via the contact persons named.
