General Information on Data Processing

Scope of the Processing of Personal Data

As a principle, we process our users’ personal data for the provision of a functional website as well as our content and services. Processing of the personal data of our users is carried out only with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where it is not possible to obtain prior consent for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by legal regulations.

Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data

As far as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. an EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as the legal basis. When processing personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures. As far as the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfillment of a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. c DSGVO as the legal basis. If the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. d DSGVO as the legal basis. If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override the former interest, Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO as the legal basis for the processing.

Data Deletion and Storage Duration

The personal data of the data subject shall be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage ceases to apply. In addition, storage may take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires unless there is a need to continue storing the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

Right to Data Portability

In exercising this right, you also have the right to obtain that the personal data concerning you be transferred directly from one controller to another controller, as far as this is technically feasible. Freedom and rights of other persons must not be affected by this. The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Right of Objection

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you, which is carried out based on Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. e or f DSGVO; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

If the personal data concerning you is processed for direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing; this also applies to profiling, as far as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes. You have the possibility, in connection with the use of information society services – notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC – to exercise your right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

Right to Revoke the Declaration of Consent under Data Protection Law

You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out based on the consent until the revocation.

Automated Decisions in Individual Cases 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 does not apply if the decision:

• is necessary for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract between you and the responsible party.
• is permitted by the legislation of the Union or the Member States to which the controller is subject, and that legislation contains appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.
• is done with your express consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9 para. 1 DSGVO, unless Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a or g DSGVO applies, and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.

Regarding the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall take reasonable steps to safeguard the rights and freedoms of, and the legitimate interests of, the data subject, which shall include, at least, the right to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to contest the decision.
