General information on data processing

1. Extent of processing of personal data

We only process the personal data of our users insofar as it is necessary to ensure the functions of the website or our content and services. We only process the personal data of our users after they have given their consent. Data may be collected in exceptional cases in which prior consent is not possible for practical reasons or the data processing is permitted by legal regulations.

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Insofar as we receive a data subject’s consent for the processing of personal data, Article 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

For the processing of personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract concluded with the data subject, this is done as pursuant to Article 6 (1) lit. b) GDPR. This also applies to data processing operations that are necessary prior to entering into a contract.

Insofar as the processing of personal data is required to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, this is done in accordance with Article 6 (1) lit. c) GDPR.

In the event that the processing of personal data is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person, Article 6 (1) lit. d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If the processing is required for the purposes of legitimate interests on the part of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override the former’s interests, this is carried out according to Article 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

3. Erasure of data and retention duration

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the intended purpose of the processing is no longer valid. In addition, data may be stored if the processing of said data is provided for by European or German legislation or by regulations, laws or other directives that are compatible with the rules of the European Union. A blocking or erasure of data is also carried out when a retention deadline prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless the further storage of the data is required for the conclusion or the performance of a contract.

Provision of the Website and creation of log files

1. Description and scope of data processing

Each time our Website is accessed, our system automatically records data and information from the system of the computer that accesses the site. The following data are collected:

2. Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Article 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

3. Purpose of data processing

The temporary storage of the IP address on the system is necessary to ensure the delivery of the site to the user’s computer. For this purpose, the user’s IP address must be stored for the duration of the session.

The data are stored in log files to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data also serve to ensure the security of our IT systems. The data are not analyzed for marketing purposes.

The purposes also include our legitimate interest in data processing as pursuant to Article 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

4. Duration of storage

The data will be deleted when they are no longer necessary for the intended purpose for which they have been collected. In the event that data are collected for the provision of the Website, they are deleted as soon as the session is completed. In the event that data are stored in log files, they are deleted no later than seven days afterwards. The data may be stored for a longer time. In this case, the user’s IP addresses are deleted or modified so that the client retrieving the Website can not be identified.

5. Options for objection and removal

Data must be collected to ensure the functioning of the site and they must be stored in log files for the operation of the website. Consequently, the user is not granted a right to object in this case.

Rights of the data subject

As soon are your personal data are processed, you assume the role of the data subject as pursuant to GDPR and are therefore granted the following rights vis-à-vis the data controller:

1. Right of access

You have the right to obtain from the controller confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning you are being processed by us. If this is the case, you may request access to the following information from the controller:

You are also entitled to the right to request information on whether your personal data are transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Article 46 GDPR relating to the transfer.

2. Right to rectification

You have a right to rectification and/or completion vis-à-vis the controller insofar as the processed personal data concerning you is incorrect or incomplete. The controller must make the correction without undue delay.

3. Right to restriction of processing

You may request the restriction of processing of personal data concerning you under the following conditions:

Where processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, such data shall, with the exception of storage, only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or of a Member State.
Where the restriction of processing is carried out pursuant to the aforementioned conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction of processing is lifted.

4. Right to erasure

a) Duty to delete
You may request the controller to have personal data concerning you deleted without undue delay, and the controller is required to delete these data without undue delay, unless one of the following reasons applies:

b) Information transferred to third parties
If the controller makes the personal data concerning you available to the public and he is obliged to erase the data as pursuant to Article 17 (1) GDPR, he must take appropriate measures, taking into account the available technology and the cost of their implementation and technical nature, to inform the data processing controller who processes the personal data that you as the data subject have requested the erasure of all links to these personal data or copies or replication of such personal data.

c) Exceptions
The right to erasure does not apply insofar as the processing is required

5. Right to be informed

If you have asserted your right to rectification, erasure or restriction pertaining to the data processing vis-à-vis the controller, he is thus obliged to inform all recipients to whom the personal data have been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or the limitation of the processing, unless this proves to be impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.
You are entitled to the right to be informed by the controller about these recipients.

6. Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. Moreover, you also have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided insofar as

(1) the processing is based on a granted consent as pursuant to Article 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR or Article 9 (2) lit. a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6 (1) lit. b) GDPR and
(2) the processing is carried out by automated means.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transmitted directly from one controller to another, wherever technically feasible. This may not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data if it is required for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

7. Right to object

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Article 6 (1) lit. e) or f), including profiling based on those provisions.
The controller shall no longer process the personal data unless he demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims.
Wherever personal data concerning you are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you may no longer be processed for such purposes.
Within the context of the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

8. Right to revoke consent to data processing

You have the right to revoke your consent to data processing at any time. Upon revoking consent, the legality of the data processing carried out on the basis of the consent will not be affected by the revocation of consent.

9. Automated decision-making, including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision that is based solely on an automated processing of data, including profiling, and that may have a legal effect on you or any similarly significant restrictive effect. This does not apply if the decision

(1) is necessary for the conclusion or the performance of a contract between you and the controller,
(2) is permissible on the basis of legislation of the European Union or its Member States to which the controller is subject and these laws contain adequate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, or
(3) is made with your explicit consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data as pursuant to Article 9 (1) GDPR, insofar as Article 9 (2) lit. a) or g) GDPR do not apply and appropriate measures for the protection of your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests have been taken.

Regarding the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller must take appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, which must include at least the right to obtaining the intervention of a person on the behalf of the controller, the right to present one’s own position and the right to contest the decision.

10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

Notwithstanding any other administrative or judicial remedies, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State where you reside or work or where the alleged violation takes place if you believe that the processing of your personal data is in violation of GDPR.

The supervisory authority to which the complaint is submitted informs the complainant on the status and the results of the complaint including the possibility of a judicial remedy as pursuant to Article 78 GDPR.
