We collect and use our website users' personal data only to the extent necessary for providing an operational website and our content and services.
In principle, our website users' personal data is only collected and used with the user's consent. An exception to this principle applies in cases where the processing of data is permitted by law or where prior consent cannot be obtained for practical reasons.
Art. 6 para. 1 let. a GDPR where consent is obtained from the data subject.
Art. 6 Abs. 1 let. b GDPR in the case of processing for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures.
Art. 6 Abs. 1 let. c GDPR in the case of processing that is required to fulfil a legal obligation.
Art. 6 para. 1 let. d GDPR, in the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require a processing of personal data.
Art. 6 para. 1 let. f GDPR, if processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest.
The personal data of a data subject will be erased or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to exist. Furthermore, data may be stored if this has been provided for by European or national legislation in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the data controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or erased if a storage deadline prescribed by the above-mentioned standards expires, unless further data storage is necessary for concluding or performing a contract.
The data described - with the exception of the user’s IP address or other data that allows the assignment of data to a user – are stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.
Temporary storage of the IP address by our system is required to allow delivery of the website to the user's computer. To this end, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data is Article 6 para. 1 let. f GDPR.
The collection of your personal data in order to provide our website is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. There is therefore no option for the user to opt-out.
The data will be erased as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. Insofar as your data are collected to ensure the provision of the website, they will be erased at the end of the respective session.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies is Art. 6 para. 1 let. f GDPR. The purpose of the use of technically necessary cookies is to simplify the use of our website.
You can find further information on technically unnecessary cookies in Part VIII. WEB ANALYTICS.
You have the right to receive information from us as the data controller as to whether we process personal data that concern you.
the existence of an automated decision-making process, including profiling, as referred to in Article 22 paragraphs 1 and 4 GDPR and - at least in these cases - meaningful information about the logic involved as well as the scope and desired impact of such processing for the data subject.
Finally, you have the right to request information regarding whether your personal data will be transmitted to a third-party country or an international organisation. In this case, you can request information about the appropriate guarantees in connection with the transfer pursuant to Article 46 GDPR.
Should the data that we process and which concern you be incorrect or incomplete, you have a right to rectification and/or completion on our part. Such rectification will be made without delay.
the accuracy of your personal data is contested by you for a period of time that allows the data controller to verify the accuracy of your personal data.
the data subject has raised an objection to the processing pursuant to Article 21 paragraph 1 GDPR, and it is still not certain whether the legitimate grounds of the data controller outweigh those of the data subject.
If the processing of the personal data that concerns you has been restricted, such data – apart from being stored – may be processed only with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending rights or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person or on the grounds of an 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 us before the restriction has been lifted.
the personal data have been collected in relation to services offered by information society services as referred to in Article 8 para. 1 GDPR.
Insofar as we have made the personal data public and are obliged to erase them pursuant to Article 17 para. 1 GDPR, we will take appropriate measures taking into account the available technology and the costs of implementation, in order to inform the third parties who are processing the personal data that you as the data subject have also requested that all links to these personal data and copies or replications of these personal data be erased.
If you have exercised your right to rectification, erasure or restriction of the processing, this party is obliged to inform all recipients to whom the personal data that concerns you has been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of the processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. You also have the right to be informed of these recipients.
As part of exercising this right to data portability, you ultimately have the right to effect that personal data relating to you are transmitted directly from one data controller to another, insofar as this is technically feasible and freedoms and rights of third parties are not affected.
You have the right to revoke your data protection declaration of consent at any time. We would also like to point out that a revocation of consent will not affect the legality of the processing which has taken place based on such consent before the revocation.
Furthermore, you have the right, for reasons arising from your specific situation, to object to the processing of personal data relating to you, which is carried out pursuant to Article 6 para.1 let. e or f, at any time. The right of objection also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
The data controller will no longer process the personal data that concern you, unless they can demonstrate compelling legitimate reasons for the processing, which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
If the personal data that relate to you are processed for advertising purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data that relate to you for the purposes of such advertising. This also applies to any profiling connected with such direct advertising. If you object to the processing of your data for direct advertising purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.
You also have the possibility, in the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.
If the processing takes place within the context of the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the data controller will take appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests. This includes as a minimum the right to secure the intervention of a person on the data controller’s side, to explain your own point of view and to challenge the decision.
The decision in accordance with (1) – (3) may not be based on special categories of personal data as referred to in Article 9 para. 1 GDPR, insofar as Article 9 para. 2 let. a or g does not apply and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.
If you are of the opinion that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR, you ultimately have the right of complaint to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State where you are staying or working or the place in which the suspected infringement has taken place.
In addition, you can contact us via the e-mail address provided. In this case, the user's personal data that is transmitted along with the email will be stored.
Your data will not be passed onto third parties in this process; the data will be used exclusively for processing the record of communication.
The legal basis for the processing of data is Art. 6 para. 1 (a) GDPR if the user has given his consent. The legal basis for processing the data transferred in the course of sending an email is Article 6 paragraph 1 let. f GDPR. If the e-mail contact aims at the conclusion of a contract, then additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 exp. 1 lit. b DSGVO.
We only process personal data for the purpose of facilitating contact with you. In the event of contact by e-mail, this also constitutes the necessary legitimate interest in processing the data.
If other personal data are processed during the sending process, these help to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.
The data will be erased as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. For the personal data from the contact form input screen and the data that was sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has been completed. The conversation will have ended when it is evident from the circumstances that the matter at hand has been conclusively resolved.
You have the possibility to revoke your consent to the processing of personal data at any time. Also when you make contact by E-mail, you can object at any time to the storage of your personal data. We would like to point out, however, that it will not be possible to continue the conversation in this case.
To revoke consent and object to storage, data subjects can contact the aforementioned people responsible in the company, the data protection officer or the supervisory authority. Please supply us with sufficient information so that we can identify your personal data. We will provide you with the required information within 30 days.
All personal data stored in the course of contacting us will be erased as a result.
