Storage duration

Unless a more specific storage period is mentioned within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing ceases to exist. If you exercise a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent for data processing, your data will be deleted, provided we have no other legally permissible grounds for storing your personal data (e.g. statutory retention periods for tax or commercial law); in the latter case, deletion will occur after these grounds cease to exist.

General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website

If you have consented to data processing, we will process your personal data based on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR if special categories of data according to Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing will also be based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information on your terminal device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), data processing will additionally be based on Section 25(1) TDDDG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time. If your data is required for the performance of a contract or to take steps prior to entering into a contract, we will process your data based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we will process your data if this is required for compliance with a legal obligation based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also be based on our legitimate interest according to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The specific legal bases applicable in each individual case will be informed in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.

Recipients of personal data

As part of our business operations, we collaborate with various external bodies. This sometimes necessitates the transfer of personal data to these external bodies. We only disclose personal data to external bodies when it is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract, when we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., disclosure of data to tax authorities), when we have a legitimate interest in disclosure pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or when another legal basis permits the transfer of data. When using contract processors, we only transfer our customers' personal data on the basis of a valid contract for contract processing. In the event of joint processing, a contract for joint processing is concluded.

Withdrawal of consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can withdraw consent already given at any time. The lawfulness of data processing conducted up to the point of withdrawal shall remain unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to object to data processing in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. You can find the respective legal basis on which processing is based 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 is for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims (objection pursuant to Article 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 ASSOCIATED WITH SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right of complaint to the competent supervisory authority

In the event of infringements 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 infringement. The right to complain is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we automatically process on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract handed over to you or a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if it is technically feasible.

Information, correction and deletion

Under the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time for this and for further questions on the subject of personal data.

Right to restrict processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

• If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we will generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
• If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can, instead of requesting its erasure, ask for the restriction of its processing.
• If we no longer need your personal data, but you require them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data instead of erasure.
• If you have lodged an objection under Article 21(1) of the 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 the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may only be processed – apart from its storage – with your consent, or to establish, exercise or defend 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 European Union or of a Member State.
