What Is It About?
This privacy statement complies with the legal requirements for transparency in the processing of personal data. This means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, such as your name, age, address, telephone number, date of birth, email address, IP address or user behaviour when visiting a website. Information through which we cannot establish a link to your person, (or can only do so with disproportionate effort) e.g. through anonymisation, is not considered personal data.
The processing of personal data (e.g. collection, retrieval, use, storage or transmission) always requires a legal basis and a defined purpose. Stored personal data are deleted as soon as the purpose of the processing has been fulfilled and there are no legitimate grounds for continued storage of the data. We inform you about the specific storage periods or criteria for storage in the individual processing procedures. Irrespective of this, we store your personal data in individual cases for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims and if there are statutory retention obligations.
Who Gets My Data?
We only disclose your personal data, processed on our website, to third parties if this is necessary for the fulfilment of the purpose and is covered by the legal basis in individual cases (e.g. consent or safeguarding of legitimate interests). In addition, we disclose personal data to third parties in individual cases if this serves the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims. Possible recipients in such cases may be law enforcement agencies, lawyers, auditors, courts, etc.
Insofar as we use service providers for the operation of our website, who process personal data on our behalf within the scope of commissioned processing pursuant to Art. 28 DSGVO, they may be recipients of your personal data. For more information on the use of commissioned processors as well as web services, please refer to the overview of the individual processing operations.
Do You Use Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are sent by us to the browser of your end device and stored there when you visit our website. As an alternative to the use of cookies, information can also be stored in the local storage of your browser. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies or local storage (technically necessary cookies). Other cookies, however, enable us to carry out various analyses, so that we can recognise the browser you are using when you revisit our website and to transmit various information to us (non-essential cookies). Among other things, the use of cookies enables us to make our website more user-friendly and effective by tracking your use of our website and determining your preferred settings (e.g. country and language preferences). If third parties process information via cookies, they collect the information directly from your browser. Cookies do not cause any damage to your end device. They cannot execute programs or contain viruses.
We provide information about the respective services for which we use cookies in the individual processing procedures. You can find detailed information on the cookies used in the cookie settings or in the Consent Manager of this website.
What Rights Do I Have?
Under the conditions of the statutory provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the following rights as a data subject:
- Information pursuant to Art. 15 DSGVO on the details of the processing of the data stored about you in the form of meaningful information as well as a copy of your data;
- Correction of incorrect or incomplete data stored by us pursuant to Art. 16 DSGVO;
- Deletion pursuant to Art. 17 DSGVO of the data stored by us, insofar as the processing is not necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, for the fulfilment of a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims;
- Restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 DSGVO, insofar as the accuracy of the data is disputed, the processing is unlawful, we no longer require the data and you object to their deletion because you require them for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims or you have objected to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 DSGVO.
- Data portability pursuant to Art. 20 DSGVO, insofar as you have provided us with personal data within the scope of consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO or on the basis of a contract pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO and these have been processed by us with the aid of automated procedures. You will receive your data in a structured, common and machine-readable format or we will transfer the data directly to another responsible party, insofar as this is technically feasible.
- Objection according to Art. 21 DSGVO to the processing of your personal data, insofar as this occurs on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. e, f DSGVO and there are reasons for this which arise from your particular situation or the objection is aimed at direct advertising. The right to object does not exist if overriding compelling legitimate grounds for the processing can be demonstrated or the processing is carried out for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims. Where the right to object does not exist for individual processing operations, this is clearly indicated.
- Revocation pursuant to Art. 7 para. 3 DSGVO of your consent with effect for the future.
- Appeal to a supervisory authority pursuant to Art. 77 DSGVO if you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the DSGVO. As a rule, you can contact the supervisory authority of your usual place of residence, your place of work or our company headquarters.
