2.1 How do we treat personal data?
Data protection plays a particularly important role in our company. We treat your personal data as confidential and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and this Data Privacy Statement.
Using our web pages is generally possible without having to indicate any personal data. If a data subject wants to make use of special services (e.g. making contact using the contact form, newsletter subscription) on our website, however, processing personal data may become necessary.
If processing personal data is required and if there is no legal basis for such processing, e.g. fulfillment of a contract or fulfillment of a legal obligation, we will principally obtain the data subject’s consent. Furthermore, the personal data are always processed in conformity with the General Data Protection Regulation and with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to our company.
By means of this Data Privacy Statement, we would like to inform the visitors of our website about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data collected, used and processed by us. In addition, we would like to inform you about your rights.
As the controller of the data processing we have implemented numerous technical and organizational measures in order to ensure complete protection (if possible) of the personal data processed via this web page.

Nevertheless, internet-based data transmissions may principally have security gaps so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed.
As far as we obtain your consent for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as a legal basis for the processing.

This would be the case, for instance, if a visitor was injured in our company and consequently his/her name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or another third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6 (1) lit. d GDPR.
If you provide us with personal data, these data are disclosed by you on an explicitly voluntary basis. Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR serves as a legal basis for the processing in this case.

In this case we can and must store your data on the basis of statutory periods.
