Privacy Policy

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

The use of our website is usually possible without providing personal information. As far as on our sides personal data (for example name, address or E-Mail addresses) are raised, this takes place, as far as possible, always on voluntary basis. These data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may have security gaps. It is not possible to provide complete protection of data against access by third parties.

‍

1. General information on data processing

1. Scope of the processing of personal data

We process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users takes place regularly only with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where prior consent is not possible for practical reasons and the processing of the data is required by law.

2. 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 (1) (a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.

When processing personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, Art. 6 (1) 1 lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures.

Insofar as the processing of personal data is required to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. 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 sentence 1 lit. 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 override the former interest, Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

3. data deletion and storage period

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage no longer applies. Storage beyond this period is possible 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. Blocking or deletion of the data also takes place when a storage period prescribed by the standards mentioned expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

‍

2. Rights of the data subject

If your personal data is processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you have the following rights in relation to the 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 the controller.

If this is the case, you have the right to request the following information from the controller: You have the right to request information about whether your personal data is transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you can request information about the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR relating to the transfer.

 

This right of access can be restricted if it is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of research or statistical purposes and the restriction is necessary for the fulfillment of research or statistical purposes.

You can request the following information from the controller:

 

1. the purposes for which the personal data are processed;

2. the categories of personal data that are processed

5. the existence of a right to correction or deletion of the personal data concerning you, a right to restriction of the processing by the controller or a

right to object to this processing;

6. the existence of a right of appeal to a supervisory authority;

‍

2. Right to rectification‍

You have the right to obtain from the controller the rectification and/or completion of inaccurate or incomplete personal data concerning you. The controller must make the rectification without undue delay.

 

Your right to rectification can be restricted if it is likely to make it impossible or seriously impair the realization of research or statistical purposes and the restriction is necessary for the fulfillment of research or statistical purposes.

‍

3. Right to restriction of processing

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

  1. if you dispute the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period of time that enables the data controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
  2. the processing is unlawful and you refuse the deletion of the personal data and instead request the restriction of the use of the personal data;
  3. the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you require them for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; or
  4. if you have objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override your grounds.

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 establishment, 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 Union or of a Member State.

If the processing restriction has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

Your right to restrict processing can be restricted to the extent that it is likely to make it impossible or seriously impair the realization of research or statistical purposes and the restriction is necessary for the fulfillment of research or statistical purposes.

  2. the processing is carried out by automated means.
  3. ‍

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible. This must not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

‍

 

9. Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This shall not apply if the decision

  1. is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and the data controller,
  2. is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or
