If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible grounds for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial retention obligations). In the latter case, deletion will take place once these grounds cease to apply.

Legal Bases for Data Processing on This Website

If you have given consent to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR if special categories of data pursuant to Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed.

In the event of explicit consent to transfer personal data to third countries, processing is additionally based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR.

If your data is required for contract fulfillment or pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

If processing is required to fulfill a legal obligation, it is based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.

Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

The applicable legal basis in each individual case is explained in the following sections of this Privacy Policy.

Recipients of Personal Data

As part of our business activities, we cooperate with various external parties. In some cases, it is necessary to transfer personal data to these external parties.

We only disclose personal data to external parties if this is necessary within the scope of contract fulfillment, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., disclosure to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the data transfer.

When using data processors, we only disclose personal data of our customers on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In cases of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may revoke consent you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out prior to the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to Object to Data Processing in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to object to the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on those provisions.

The respective legal basis for processing can be found in this Privacy Policy.

If you object, we will no longer process your affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR).

If your personal data 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. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to direct marketing.

If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection pursuant to Art. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged violation.

This right exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive the data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, in a commonly used, machine-readable format, and to have it transmitted to yourself or to a third party.

If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.

Right of Access, Rectification, and Erasure

Within the framework of applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, the right to have this data corrected or deleted.

You may contact us at any time regarding this or other questions concerning personal data.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time regarding this.

The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually require time to verify this. During the verification period, you have the right to request restriction of processing.
If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request restriction of processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing instead of deletion.
If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of your interests and ours must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of processing.

If the processing of your personal data has been restricted, such data – apart from storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for important public interest reasons of the European Union or a Member State.

You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock icon in your browser bar.
