Data Protection Declaration

"Personal Data" is all information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person.

1. Processing of Personal Data

When processing Personal Data, we protect the personal rights of the affected persons. We will always process Personal Data lawfully, fairly, in good faith and in a manner that is understandable for the persons concerned. The processing of Personal Data may only pursue those purposes that were specified before the data was collected. Subsequent changes to the purposes are only possible to a limited extent and require justification. Personal Data must be stored correctly, completely and up to date. We take appropriate measures to ensure that inapplicable, incomplete or outdated data is deleted, corrected, supplemented or updated.We collect Personal Data from the affected persons ourselves and use them in the course of our business. We only collect Personal Data to the extent that is necessary for the intended purpose. We will delete Personal Data that is no longer required after the statutory or business process related retention periods have expired. If, in individual cases, there are indications of legitimate interests or historical significance of this data, we must continue to store the data until the legitimate interests of protection has been legally clarified. Data secrecy applies to Personal Data. They will be treated confidentially. As far as possible, we take appropriate organizational and technical measures against unauthorized access, unlawful processing or disclosure, as well as accidental loss, change or destruction.

2. Lawfulness of the data processing

The collection, processing and use of Personal Data is only lawful if one of the following conditions applies. If the purpose changes compared to the original provision, proof of a new legal basis must be provided.

Contractual Relationship: Personal Data of interested parties, customers or business partners may be processed to justify, execute and terminate a contract. This also includes support for the contractual partners, provided this is related to the purpose of the contract. Interested parties may be contacted during contract initiation using the data they have provided. Any restrictions expressed by the interested party must be observed.

Advertising purposes: If the person concerned contacts our company with an information request, for example after sending information material about a product or service, data processing is permitted to fulfill this request. For further advertising purposes, the voluntary, clear and understandable consent of the person concerned must be obtained. This can be revoked at any time. In the event of a revocation by the person concerned, further use of their data for these purposes is not permitted and they must be deleted or restricted for these purposes.

Legitimate interest: The processing of Personal Data can also take place if this is necessary for the realization of a legitimate interest of our company. Legitimate interests are usually legal interests, such as the enforcement of outstanding claims, or economic interests, such as avoiding contractual disruptions. Processing of Personal Data on the basis of a legitimate interest may not take place if there is an indication in individual cases that the data subject's legitimate interest of protection outweighs the interest in processing. The legitimate interest of protection must be checked for each processing. A data transfer of Personal Data to recipients outside our company takes place in compliance with the relevant data protection laws. The recipient of the data is obliged to only use it for the specified purposes.

3. Rights of the affected person

Every data subject can exercise the following rights.

a) Information about what type of Personal Data and its origin is stored and for what purpose.

b) If Personal Data is transmitted to third parties, information must also be provided about the identity of the recipient or the categories of recipients.

c) Should Personal Data be incorrect or incomplete, the data subject can request that it be corrected or supplemented.

d) The data subject can object to the processing of their Personal Data. In particular in connection with direct advertising, the data subject has the right to object to this processing at any time.

e) The data subject is entitled to request the deletion of their data if the legal basis for processing the data is missing or has ceased to exist. The same applies in the event that the purpose of data processing has lapsed due to the passage of time or for other reasons. Existing retention obligations and legitimate interests of protection that conflict with deletion, such as asserting, exercising or defending legal claims of the person responsible or third parties, must be observed.

f) The person concerned has a fundamental right to object to the processing of their data if their legitimate interest due to a particular personal situation outweighs the interest in the processing. This does not apply if a legal regulation obliges the processing to be carried out.

g) According to Art. 77 GDPR, you have the right to complain to the supervisory authority if you are of the opinion that the processing of your Personal Data is not lawful.
