The information below gives you an overview of how personal data is processed in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the rights arising from data protection laws. The protection of your personal data (personal information such as your name, address, contact details) when you visit the websites of the Sauren Financial Group (Sauren Finanzdienstleistungen GmbH & Co. KG, Sauren Fonds-Service AG, Sauren Fonds-Research AG) is a high priority for the individual companies of the Sauren Group. These companies naturally protect your data within the framework of statutory regulations. Your data is not transmitted to third parties outside the Sauren Financial Group unless the companies of the Sauren Group are legally obligated to do so, the data transmission is necessary to implement the contractual relationship, or you have expressly provided your prior consent to such transmission of your data.
The following paragraphs inform you of the nature, scope and purpose of data collection and the use of personal data. Your rights are also explained in this data protection notice, which applies for all companies of the Sauren Financial Group. Each company within the Sauren Group is independently responsible for complying with this data protection notice and the relevant legal obligations.
For purposes of this data protection notice, the party responsible for processing is the legally independent company of the Sauren Group whose business activities result in the respective processing activity. The responsible parties in this context are:
Im MediaPark 8 (KölnTurm), 50670 Cologne (Germany)
Tel.: 0221/ 65050 100, Mail: info@sauren.de
The joint data protection officer, Ms Ariane Rack, can be reached via datenschutzbeauftragter@sauren.de.
On accessing Sauren Financial Group web pages and calling up a file stored on these web pages, data is automatically transferred to our web servers for technical reasons. On each query (e.g. accessing a page) the web servers save data. Data such as date and time of access to the web pages, URL of the linking web page, file called up, quantity of data sent, browser type and version and operating system are logged. The IP address of the computer originating the query is also logged. The Sauren Financial Group uses this data only for standard statistical reports (e.g. determining the number of visitors to the web pages). Other personal data is only collected if you, as a user of the web pages, provide the information voluntarily in the course of using the web pages. We also process personal data that we receive from customers or other relevant parties in the context of our business relationships.
If you send us an email or contact us using our contact form, your email address and other contact details are only stored and used for purposes of corresponding with you or sending any requested informational material.
Use of personal data and legal basis
If you, as a user of Sauren web pages, voluntarily provide personal or business data in the context of an enquiry or registration, this data is used to enable the provision of services offered on the web pages, e.g. to answer enquiries or send requested informational material. The personal data collected in forms for registration and contact requests is used exclusively for these purposes. It is not visible or transmitted to third parties outside the Sauren Financial Group.
If you use the contact form to contact us, your data is stored for the purpose of processing your enquiry and any subsequent questions. You must provide a valid email address and your name so that we know who has sent the enquiry and we are able to answer it. Other information may be provided voluntarily. This data is not transmitted to third parties outside the Sauren Financial Group.
The Sauren newsletter keeps you informed of current topics. On subscribing to the newsletter, the data you provide is stored and used to send the newsletter. In general, you need only provide an email address in order to receive the newsletter via email. Other information may be provided voluntarily. It is possible to unsubscribe at any time, for example by sending a message to info@sauren.de. The data will not be transmitted to third parties outside the Sauren Financial Group in this case.
Data is also processed for purposes of service provision by the companies of the Sauren Financial Group in the context of a contractual relationship with the relevant party, or of implementation of pre-contractual measures subsequent to an enquiry.
If a person provides consent for the processing of personal data, for example in the case of newsletter subscriptions, requests for promotional material regarding Sauren funds of funds or the transmission of data within the Sauren Financial Group, this is governed by the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
For the processing of personal data required to execute a contract to which the relevant person is party, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. This also applies for processing activities required to implement pre-contractual measures.
If the processing of personal data is necessary to satisfy a legal requirement to which our company is subject, or if it is in the public interest, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (c) and (e) GDPR. The latter applies, for example, if Sauren Finanzdienstleistungen GmbH & Co. KG or Sauren Fonds-Service AG, as a financial services institution or financial investment intermediary, is subject to special statutory or legal requirements, for instance under the German Securities Trading Act, German Banking Act, German Money Laundering Act, German Ordinance on Financial Investment Intermediaries or other regulatory requirements.
If data processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party (e.g. advertising, transmission of data within the corporate group, assertion of legal claims, safeguarding of IT security, measures related to business management and the further development of services and products) and if the interests and basic rights and freedoms of the person affected do not supersede the above-mentioned interests, the legality of data processing is assured by Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

A cookie stores information related to the specific end device in use. This does not mean, however, that we are directly made aware of your identity.
One reason for using cookies is to provide a more pleasant experience when you use our services. We therefore use “session” cookies to recognise which individual pages of our website you have already visited. These are then automatically deleted after you leave our website.
For purposes of enhanced user-friendliness, we also use temporary cookies that are stored on your end device for a predetermined period.
The data processed via cookies is necessary for the aforementioned purposes of safeguarding our legitimate interests and those of third parties in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
Most browsers accept cookies automatically. You can configure your browser in such a way that no cookies are stored on your computer or a notice always appears before a new cookie is set. However, if you deactivate cookies entirely, you may not be able to use all of the functions on our website.

This results in the creation of pseudonymised usage profiles and the use of cookies. The cookie-generated information about your use of this website, such as
referrer URL (previous page visited),
is sent to a Google server in the USA, where it is stored. This information is used to analyse usage of the website, compile website activity reports and provide other services related to website and Internet usage for purposes of market research and the needs-based design of such websites. This information may also be transmitted to third parties if required by law or if third parties are contracted to process this data. Under no circumstances is your IP address associated with other Google data. IP addresses are anonymised to prevent attribution (IP masking).
You can prevent the installation of cookies by changing the relevant setting in your browser software; however, it should be noted that it may not then be possible to use all of the functions of this website to their full extent.
You can also opt out of the communication to Google of data collected by the cookie in connection with your use of the website (including your IP address) and the processing of such information by Google by downloading and installing a browser add-on (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en).

The duration of personal data storage is normally determined by legal retention requirements. Under commercial and tax law, retention requirements are generally six to ten years. Statutory limitation periods may be up to 30 years but are generally three years. Data is regularly deleted when it is no longer required for contractual or other purposes.
