Storage period

We generally delete your personal data when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed. If we have asked for your consent and you have given it, we will delete your personal data if you withdraw your consent and there is no other legal basis for the processing. We will erase your personal data if you object to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing or if you object to the processing for the purposes of direct marketing or related profiling. If deletion is not possible because processing is still necessary for compliance with a legal obligation (legal retention periods, etc.) to which we are subject or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims, we will restrict the processing of your personal data. You can also find more information on the storage period in the following passages.


Your rights


You have the following rights in relation to your personal data:

  • Right to information
  • Right to rectification
  • Right to erasure
  • Right to restriction of processing
  • Right to object to processing
  • Right to data portability

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) DS-GVO on grounds relating to your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. We will then no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. If we process your personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. We will then no longer process your personal data for these purposes.


You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. We will then no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.


If we process your personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. We will then no longer process your personal data for these purposes. You have the right to revoke consent to the processing of your personal data at any time if you have given us such consent. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation. You have the right to complain to a supervisory authority about the processing of your personal data by us.


Provision of your personal data


The provision of your personal data is generally not required by law or contract and is not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are generally not obliged to provide your personal data. If this should nevertheless be the case, we will point this out to you separately when collecting your personal data (for example by marking the mandatory fields in input forms). Failure to provide your personal data regularly means that we will not process your personal data for one of the purposes described below and that you will not be able to take advantage of an offer related to the respective processing (example: without providing your e-mail address, you will not receive our newsletter).


Web hosting


We use external services for web hosting. These services may have access to personal data that is processed in the course of using our online services.


Web server log files


We process your personal data in order to be able to display our online offer to you and to guarantee the stability and security of our online offer. In the process, information (e.g. requested element, accessed URL, operating system, date and time of the request, browser type and the version used, IP address, protocol used, amount of data transferred, user agent, referrer URL, time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and/or HTTP status code) is stored in so-called log files (access log, error log, etc.). If we have asked for your consent and you have given it, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. If we have not asked you for your consent, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest here is the proper display of our online offer and ensuring the stability and security of our online offer.


Security


For security reasons and to protect the transmission of your personal data and other confidential content, we use encryption on our domain. You can recognise this in the browser line by the character string "https://" and the lock symbol.


Contacting


If you contact us, we will process your personal data in order to deal with your contact. If we have asked you for your consent and you have given it, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. If we have not asked for your consent, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the processing of your contact. If the processing is necessary to fulfil a contract with you or to carry out pre-contractual measures based on your request, the legal basis for the processing is also Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR. We use external services to provide and maintain our email inboxes. These services may have access to personal data that is processed in the context of contacting us.
