II. General Information on Data Processing

Scope of Processing of Personal Data

We collect and use the personal data of our users fundamentally only to the extent necessary for providing a functional website and our content and services. The collection and use of personal data of our users regularly occurs only with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible for factual reasons and the processing of data is permitted by legal provisions.

Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data

To the extent that we obtain consent from the data subject for processing operations involving personal data, Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis for processing personal data.

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

To the extent that processing personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6(1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

In cases where the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Article 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, and these interests are not overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, then Article 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

Data Erasure and Storage Duration

The personal data of the data subject shall be erased or blocked as soon as the purpose for storage ceases to apply. Storage may also occur 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. Blocking or erasure of the data also occurs when a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned norms expires, unless there is a necessity for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

Objection and Rectification Option

The collection of data for website provision and the storage of data in logfiles are mandatorily required for the operation of the website. Therefore, there is no possibility for the user to object.

You have the right to request information as to whether personal data concerning you is transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you may request to be informed about the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Article 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer.

Right to Rectification

You have the right to have inaccurate or incomplete personal data concerning you rectified or completed by the controller. The controller shall make the rectification without undue delay.

Right to Restriction of Processing

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

(1) if you contest the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;

(2) the processing is unlawful and you refuse to have the personal data erased and request instead the restriction of their use;

(3) the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of 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) GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override your grounds.

If processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, these data may – apart from 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 an important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.

If the restriction of processing has been lifted according to the above-mentioned conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

Right to Erasure

a) Obligation to Erase

You may request the controller to erase personal data concerning you without undue delay, and the controller shall be obliged to erase this data without undue delay, provided one of the following grounds applies:

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

(2) You withdraw your consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR, and there is no other legal ground for processing.

(3) You object to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for processing, or you object to processing pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR.

(4) The personal data concerning you have been unlawfully processed.

(5) The erasure of the personal data concerning you is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.

(6) The personal data concerning you have been collected in relation to the offer of information society services pursuant to Article 8(1) GDPR.

b) Information to Third Parties

If the controller has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged to erase them pursuant to Article 17(1) GDPR, the controller shall, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, take reasonable measures, including technical measures, to inform other controllers processing the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested them to erase any links to, or copies or replications of, these personal data.

c) Exceptions

The right to erasure shall not apply to the extent that processing is necessary

(1) for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information;

(2) for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;

(3) for reasons of public interest in the area of public health in accordance with Article 9(2)(h) and (i) and Article 9(3) GDPR;

(4) for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) GDPR, in so far as the right referred to in point (a) is likely to render impossible the achievement of the objectives of that processing or seriously impairs it, or

(5) for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

Right to Information

If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing against the controller, the controller is obliged to communicate any rectification or erasure of data or restriction of processing to all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.

You have the right to be informed by the controller about these recipients.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to the controller, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. Furthermore, you have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data have been provided, provided that

(1) the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, and

(2) the processing is carried out by automated means.

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. The freedoms and rights of others must not be affected by this.

The right to data portability does not apply to processing of personal data that is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Right to Object

You have the right, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

The controller shall no longer process the personal data concerning you unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

If personal data concerning you is 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 purposes; this also applies to profiling in so far as it is related to such direct marketing.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you shall no longer be processed for these purposes.

You have the option, in connection with the use of information society services – notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC – to exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

Right to Withdraw Data Protection Consent Declaration

You have the right to withdraw your data protection consent declaration at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out based on consent prior to its withdrawal.

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 does not apply if the decision

(1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the 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 your legitimate interests, or

(3) is based on your explicit consent.

However, these decisions must not be based on special categories of personal data referred to in Article 9(1) GDPR, unless Article 9(2)(a) or (g) applies and suitable measures have been taken to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.

With regard to cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall take at least appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your point of view and to contest the decision.

Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, your place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR.

The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the status and the outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Article 78 GDPR.
