B. Data Processing

​

I. Subject of Data Protection

The subject of data protection is personal data. These are details about personal or factual circumstances of a specific or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, information such as name, postal address, email address, or telephone number, and possibly usage data such as the IP address. We only collect and use personal data of our users to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. Data collection and use occur, as far as the data have personal reference, regularly only with the user's consent. In cases where prior consent is not possible for factual reasons and the processing of data is permitted by legal regulations, consent is not obtained.

 

II. Legal Basis for Data Processing

The processing of personal data of visitors to our website is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party. As long as the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

 

III. Deletion of Data and Duration of Storage

Data with personal reference to the data subject are deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Storage may also take place if this is provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws, or other regulations to which the controller is subject. Blocking or deletion of data also occurs when a storage period prescribed by the mentioned norms expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

 

C. Scope and Purpose of Data Collection and Storage

​

Below, we inform you about the scope of data collection and storage and their use and the purpose of each data collection.

 

I. Log Files

When using the website, the following data is automatically collected and stored in a log file on the server: Customer domain, anonymized client IP, timestamp, request line, status code, size of the response body, user agent, remote user. Our server's log files contain IP addresses or other data that can be attributed to a user. This could be the case, for example, if the link to the website from which the user accesses the Internet page or the link to the website to which the user switches contains personal data. The data is also stored in the log files of our system. Storage of this data together with other personal data of the user does not take place. The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, as long as the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh our interest. The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the delivery of the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must be kept for the duration of the session. Storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data serve us to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context. These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, as long as the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh our interest. The data are deleted as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose of their collection. In the case of collecting data to provide the website, this is the case when the respective session ends. In the case of storing data in log files, this is the case after no more than seven days. Further storage is possible. In this case, the IP addresses are alienated so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible. The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is mandatory for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility of objection on the part of the user.

 

II. Email Contact

Contact is possible via the provided email addresses. In this case, the user's personal data transmitted with the email are stored. In this context, there is no disclosure of the data to third parties. The data is used exclusively for processing the conversation. The legal basis for processing the data transmitted in the course of sending an email is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If the email contact aims at the conclusion of a contract, then additional legal basis for processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. The processing of personal data from the email contact is solely for processing the contact. This also establishes the necessary legitimate interest in processing the data. Emails are archived for the duration of the statutory retention periods according to § 147 para. 1 no. 2, para. 3 sentence 1 AO, § 257 para. 1 no. 2, 3, para. 4 HGB (6 years) as part of the statutory storage obligations.

 

D. Rights of the Data Subject

​

If your personal data are processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR, and you have the following rights against the controller:

 

I. Right to Information

(2) the categories of personal data that are processed;

(3) the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been or will be disclosed;

(4) the planned duration of the storage of the personal data concerning you or, if specific information on this is not possible, criteria for determining the storage duration;

(5) the existence of a right to correction or deletion of personal data concerning you, a right to restriction of processing by the controller, or a right to object to such processing;

(6) the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;

(7) all available information about the origin of the data if the personal data are not collected from the data subject;

(8) the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, according to Art. 22 para. 1 and 4 GDPR and – at least in these cases – meaningful information about the involved logic and the scope and intended effects of such processing for the data subject. You have the right to request information about whether the personal data concerning you are transferred to a third country or an international organization. In this context, you can request to be informed about the appropriate guarantees according to Art. 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer.

 

II. Right to Correction

You have the right to correction and/or completion if the processed personal data concerning you are incorrect or incomplete. We must make the correction without delay.

 

III. Right to Restriction of Processing

Under the following conditions, you can request the restriction of the processing of personal data concerning you:

(1) if you dispute the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period that enables us 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) we no longer need the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you need them to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims, or

(4) if you have objected to the processing according to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and it is not yet clear whether our legitimate reasons outweigh your reasons. If the processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, these data may – apart from their storage – only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or a Member State. If the restriction of processing has been restricted according to the above conditions, you will be informed by us before the restriction is lifted.

 

IV. Right to Deletion

 

(1) You can request us to delete the personal data concerning you immediately, and we are obliged to delete these data immediately if one of the following reasons applies:

a. The personal data concerning you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.

b. You revoke your consent on which the processing was based according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.

c. You object to the processing according to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing, or you object to the processing according to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.

d. The personal data concerning you have been processed unlawfully.

e. The deletion of personal data concerning you is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.

f. The personal data concerning you have been collected concerning offered services of the information society according to Art. 8 para. 1 GDPR.

 

(2) Information to Third Parties If we have made the personal data concerning you public and are obliged to delete them according to Art. 17 para. 1 GDPR, we shall take appropriate measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, to inform data controllers who process the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested the deletion of all links to these personal data or copies or replications of these personal data.

 

(3) Exceptions The right to deletion does not exist insofar as the processing is necessary

a. to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;

b. to fulfill a legal obligation that requires processing under the law of the Union or the Member States to which the controller is subject, or to perform a task that is in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority that has been transferred to the controller;

c. for reasons of public interest in the area of public health according to Art. 9 para. 2 lit. h and i as well as Art. 9 para. 3 GDPR;

d. for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes according to Art. 89 para. 1 GDPR, insofar as the right mentioned under section a) is likely to make the realization of the objectives of this processing impossible or seriously impairs it, or

e. to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims.

 

V. Right to Information

If you have asserted the right to correction, deletion, or restriction of processing against us, we are obliged to inform all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed of this correction or deletion of the data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed about these recipients by us.

 

VI. Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, common, and machine-readable format. In addition, you have the right to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance from us, provided that

(1) the processing is based on consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR or on a contract according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR and

(2) the processing is carried out using automated procedures. In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transferred directly from one controller to another, insofar as this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons may not be impaired 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 in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

 

VII. Right to Object

You have the right to object at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you, which is carried out based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. We will no longer process the personal data concerning you unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing is for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims. If the personal data concerning you are processed for direct marketing purposes, 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, insofar as it is associated with 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 option, in the context of the use of information society services – notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC – to exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

 

VIII. Right to Revoke the Data Protection Consent Declaration

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

 

IX. Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority

Irrespective of any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the Member State of your residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement if you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you violates the GDPR. The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant about the status and the results of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy according to Art. 78 GDPR.
