In addition, we process - as far as necessary for the provision of our service - personal data that we have legitimately received from other companies or other third parties in a permissible manner (e.g. to execute orders, to fulfill contracts or on the basis of a consent you have given).
On the other hand, we process personal data that we have legitimately gained and may process from publicly available sources (eg debtor directories, land registers, trade and association registers, press, media).
Order data (for example delivery order).
Data from the fulfillment of our contractual obligations (for example, sales data, credit lines, product data).
Contract and documentation data (for example business letters).
Payment data (e.g., account number, bank details).
Communication data (e.g., telephone number, e-mail address).
Data about your use of our offered telemedia (for example, when we call our websites, apps or newsletters, clicked pages of us or entries).
Other data comparable to the above categories.
3. What do we process your data for (purpose of processing) and on which legal basis?
The processing of personal data (Art. 4 No. 2 DS-BER) is performed for the provision of services and delivery of goods, in particular for the execution of our contracts with you and the execution of your orders, as well as all activities necessary for the operation and administration of a company.
The purposes of the data processing depend primarily on the specific products or services.
Further details on the purpose of data processing can be found in the respective contract documents and terms and conditions.

Measures for the business control and further development of services and products.
Insofar as you have given us consent to the processing of personal data for specific purposes (eg disclosure of data to third parties, evaluation of data for marketing purposes), the legality of this processing is based on your consent. A given consent can be revoked at any time.
Please note that the revocation only works for the future. Processing that occurred before the revocation is not affected.
In addition, we are subject to various legal obligations, ie legal requirements (eg commercial law, tax laws, etc.). As far as data is processed in this regard, this is done exclusively on the basis of these requirements.
4. Who gets your data?
Within the company, those entities receive the data they need to fulfill our contractual and legal obligations. Our processors (Art. 28 DS-GVO) can also receive data for these purposes. These are companies in the categories IT Services, Logistics, Printing Services, Telecommunications, Debt Collection, Consulting and Consulting as well as Sales and Marketing and Address Recognition.
Public bodies and institutions (eg public prosecutor, police, supervisory authorities) in the presence of a legal or regulatory obligation.
Other companies to whom we provide personally identifiable information (depending on the contract: eg banks, credit bureaus, business partners, sales representatives).
5. How long will your data be stored?
If necessary, we process and store your personal data for the duration of our business relationship, which includes, for example, the initiation and execution of a contract or for the fulfillment of the contractual purpose.
In addition, we are subject to various storage and documentation obligations, which result, inter alia, from the German Commercial Code (HGB) and the Tax Code (AO). The deadlines for storage and documentation are two to ten years.
Finally, the storage period is also determined by the statutory limitation periods, which can be, for example, according to §§ 195 ff. Of the Civil Code (BGB) usually three years, in some cases, but also up to thirty years.
A transfer of data to third countries (states outside the European Economic Area - EEA) only takes place, if this is necessary for the execution of your orders, is required by law or you have given us your consent. Details will be provided to you separately, if required by law.

With regard to the right to information and the right to erase, the restrictions under §§ 34 and 35 BDSG apply. In addition, there is a right of appeal to a data protection supervisory authority (Article 77 GDPR in conjunction with § 19 BDSG).
8. Is there a duty for you to provide data?
As part of our business relationship, you only need to provide the personal information that is required to establish, conduct and terminate a business relationship or that we are required to collect by law. Without this data, we will generally have to refuse to conclude the contract or to execute the order or to be unable to complete an existing contract and possibly terminate it.
In principle, we do not use fully automated decision-making pursuant to Art. 22 GDPR to justify and implement the business relationship. If we use these procedures in individual cases, we will inform you about this separately, if this is required by law.

If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes.
