General information about data processing

1. Scope of personal data processing

   We only process our users' personal data insofar as this is necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. The processing of our users' personal data only takes place regularly with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.

2. Legal basis for processing personal data

   If we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.

   For the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures.

   If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis.

   In the event that the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.

   If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and 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 the processing.

3. Data erasure and storage duration

   The personal data of the data subject will be erased or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies. The data may also be stored if this is provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or erased upon expiration of a retention period prescribed by the aforementioned standards, unless further storage of the data is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract.

Provision of the website and creation of log files

1. Description and scope of data processing

   Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information
   from the computer system of the accessing computer.

   The following information is collected:

   • Information on the type and version of browser used
   • The user's operating system
   • The user's IP address
   • Date and time of access
   • Websites from which the user's system accesses our site
   • Websites that the user's system accesses via our website

   This information is also stored in the log files of our system. These data are not stored together with other personal data of the user.

2. Legal basis of data processing

   The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 par. 1 lit. f GDPR.

3. Purpose of data processing

   The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the website to be delivered to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must be stored for the duration of the session.

   The data is stored in log files to ensure the functionality of the website. We also use the data to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. The data is not analyzed for marketing purposes.

   These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in processing the data pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

4. Duration of storage

   The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected. In the case of the collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case at the end of the respective session.

   If the data is stored in log files, this will be the case after seven days at the latest. Storage
   beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users will be deleted or
   anonymized so that it is no longer possible to identify the accessing client.

5. Possibility of objection and removal

   The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is
   absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility for the user to object.

Data subject rights

If your personal data is processed, you are a data subject under the GDPR and you have the following rights vis-à-vis the controller.

1. Right of access

   You may request confirmation from the controller as to whether we are processing personal data relating to you.

   If such processing is taking place, you may request the following information from the
   controller:

   • The purposes for which the personal data will be processed;
   • the intended retention period of the personal data concerning you or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining the retention period;

   You have the right to be informed of any transfer of personal data concerning you to a third
   country or to an international organization. In this context, you may request to be informed of the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer.

   This right of access may be restricted to the extent that it is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the research or statistical purposes and the restriction is necessary for the fulfillment of the research or statistical purposes.

2. Right to rectification

   You have a right of rectification and/or completion vis-à-vis the data controller if the personal data processed concerning you is inaccurate or incomplete. The controller must carry out the rectification without undue delay.

   Your right to rectification may be restricted to the extent that it is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the research or statistical purposes and the restriction is necessary for the fulfillment of the research or statistical purposes.

3. Right to restrict processing

   You may request the restriction of the processing of your personal data under the following
   conditions:

   1. if you contest the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period of time to enable the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data
   2. the processing is unlawful and you object to the erasure of the personal data and request
      instead the restriction of their use
   3. the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by you for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; or
   4. you have objected to the processing of your personal data pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR
      and it is not yet certain whether the legitimate reasons of the controller outweigh your
      reasons.

   Where the processing of personal data concerning you is restricted, such data may be
   processed - apart from storage - only with your consent or for the purposes of establishing,
   exercising or defending legal claims or for the purposes of protecting the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.

   If the processing has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, you will be
   informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

   Your right to restrict processing may be limited to the extent that it is likely to render
   impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the research or statistical purposes and the restriction is necessary for the fulfillment of the research or statistical purposes.

4. Right of erasure

   1. Obligation to erase

      You have the right to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning you without undue delay and the controller shall have the obligation to erase personal data without undue delay where 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 revoke your consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Art. 6 par. 1 lit. a
         or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
      3. you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and there are no overriding
         legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (2) GDPR.
      4. the personal data concerning you has been processed unlawfully.
      5. the deletion of personal data concerning you is necessary to comply with a legal obligation
         under Union law or the law of the Member State to which the controller is subject; or
      6. the personal data concerning you have been collected in connection with the provision of
         information society services pursuant to Article 8(1) of the GDPR.

   2. Disclosure to third parties

      If the data controller has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged to
      delete the personal data pursuant to Art. 17 (1) GDPR to erase the personal data, the controller shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, taking into account available technology and the cost of implementation, to inform the controllers who process the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested that those controllers erase any links to, or copy or replicate, those personal data.

   3. Exceptions

      The right to erasure does not apply if the processing is necessary to

      1. for the exercise of the right 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 relating to public health pursuant to Art. 9 paragraph 2 letters
         h and i and Art. 9 para. 3 GDPR;
      4. for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89 para. 1 GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing, or
      5. for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

5. Right of access

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

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

6. Right to data portability

   You have the right to obtain the personal data concerning you that you have provided to the
   data controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to have that data transferred to another controller, without hindrance from the
   controller to whom the personal data has been transferred, if

   1. the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2
      lit. a GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. 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
   transferred directly from one controller to another controller, insofar as this is technically
   feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be affected.

   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.

7. Right to object

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

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

   If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such marketing purposes, including profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

   If you object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes, your
   personal data will no longer be processed for such purposes.

   You have the possibility to exercise your right to object in relation to the use of information
   society services, without prejudice to Directive 2002/58/EC, by means of automated
   procedures using technical specifications.

   You also have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the
   processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out for scientific or historical
   research or statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89 (1) GDPR.

   Your right to object may be limited to the extent that it is likely to make the implementation
   of the research or statistical purposes impossible or seriously impair them, and the limitation is necessary for the fulfillment of the research or statistical purposes.

8. Right to revoke your privacy consent

   You have the right to withdraw your data protection consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent prior to its withdrawal.

9. Automated decision making 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

   1. is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the controller
   2. authorized by Union or national law to which the controller is subject and which also lays
      down appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or
   3. with your explicit consent.

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

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

10. Right to complain to 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 where you have
    your habitual residence or place of work or where the alleged infringement has occurred, if
    you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you is in breach of the GDPR.

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