Matched Legal Cases: ['Art. 4', 'art. 6', 'art. 28', 'Art. 13', 'Art. 15', 'Art. 16', 'Art. 17', 'Art. 18', 'Art. 20', 'Art. 21', 'Art. 22']

We are very pleased about your interest in our association. The management of the German Committee for Disaster Reduction (Deutscher Komitee Katastrophenvorsorge e.V.) attaches great importance to data protection. (hereinafter DKKV). The DKKV website can generally be used without providing any personal data. However, if a person concerned wishes to make use of special services of our association via our website, it may be necessary to process personal data. If it is necessary to process personal data and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the person concerned.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the basic data protection regulation and in compliance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to DKKV. By means of this data protection declaration, our association wishes to inform the public about the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. In addition, this data protection declaration is intended to inform affected persons of the rights to which they are entitled.
As the data controller, DKKV has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data processed via this website is protected as completely as possible. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every person concerned is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, such as by telephone.
1. definitions within the meaning of Art. 4 DSGVO
DKKV's data protection declaration is based on the terms used by the European legislator for directives and regulations when the Basic Data Protection Regulation (DS-GVO) was adopted. Our data protection declaration should be easy to read and understand for the public as well as for our members and project partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terms used in advance.
(d) Controller or data controller
(f) Consignee
Responsible in the sense of the data protection basic regulation, other data protection laws applicable in the member states of the European Union and other regulations with data protection character is that:

The internet pages of the German Committee for Disaster Reduction e.V. use cookies. Cookies are text files which are stored on a computer system via an internet browser.
Numerous internet pages and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters which can be used to assign Internet pages and servers to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the Internet pages and servers visited to distinguish the individual browser of the person concerned from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified by means of the unique cookie ID.
By using cookies, the Deutsches Komitee Katastrophenvorsorge e.V. can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the setting of cookies.
By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimised in the interest of the user.
The DKKV website collects a range of general data and information each time a data subject or automated system accesses the website. This general data and information is stored in the server's log files. The following can be recorded: (1) browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses our website (so-called referrer), (4) the sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of an access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet Protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information which serve to prevent danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using this general data and information, DKKV will not draw any conclusions about the person concerned. Rather, this information is required in order to (1) deliver the contents of our website correctly, (2) optimise the contents of our website and the advertising for it, (3) ensure the permanent functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. This anonymously collected data and information is therefore evaluated by DKKV both statistically and with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately ensure an optimum level of protection for the personal data processed by us. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a person concerned.
On the website of the Deutsches Komitee Katastrophenvorsorge e.V. (German Committee for Disaster Prevention) users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our association's newsletter. Which personal data is transmitted to the data controller when ordering the newsletter is determined by the input mask used for this purpose.
DKKV informs members and interested parties about offers from the association at regular intervals by means of a newsletter. In principle, the newsletter of our association can only be received by the data subject if (1) the data subject has a valid e-mail address and (2) the data subject registers to receive the newsletter. For legal reasons, a confirmation e-mail will be sent to the e-mail address registered for the first time by a person concerned for the purpose of receiving the newsletter using the double opt-in procedure. This confirmation mail is used to check whether the owner of the e-mail address has authorized the receipt of the newsletter as a data subject.
The newsletters are sent via the dispatch service "MailChimp", a newsletter dispatch platform of the US provider Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA. The data protection regulations of the mail service provider can be viewed here: mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/. The Rocket Science Group LLC d/b/a MailChimp is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus offers a guarantee to comply with the European level of data protection (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000TO6hAAG&status=Active). The mail order service provider is used on the basis of our legitimate interests according to art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO and an order processing contract according to art. 28 para. 3 sentence 1 DSGVO.
The mail-order service provider may use the recipient's data in pseudonymous form, i.e. without allocation to a user, to optimise or improve its own services, e.g. for technical optimisation of the dispatch and presentation of newsletters or for statistical purposes. However, the dispatch service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write to them itself or to pass the data on to third parties.
When registering for the newsletter, we also save the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) for the computer system used by the person concerned at the time of registration, as well as the date and time of registration. The collection of this data is necessary in order to be able to trace the (possible) misuse of a data subject's e-mail address at a later date and therefore serves to provide legal protection for the data controller.
The newsletters of the Deutsche Komitee Katastrophenvorsorge e.V. contain so-called counting pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in such e-mails sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and log file analysis. This allows a statistical evaluation of the success or failure of online public relations work. The embedded pixel-code enables DKKV to recognise whether and when an e-mail was opened by a person concerned and which links in the e-mail were called up by the person concerned.
Such personal data collected via the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters are stored and evaluated by the data controller in order to optimise the newsletter dispatch and to adapt the content of future newsletters even better to the interests of the data subject. This personal data is not passed on to third parties. Affected persons are entitled to revoke the separate declaration of consent submitted in this regard via the double opt-in procedure at any time. After revocation, these personal data will be deleted by the data controller. DKKV automatically interprets a cancellation of receipt of the newsletter as a revocation.
a) Right to confirmation, Art. 13 f. DSG-VO
b) Right to information, Art. 15 DSG-VO
c) Right of rectification, Art. 16 DPA Regulation
d) Right of deletion (right to be forgotten), Art. 17 DSG-VO
If one of the above reasons applies and a data subject wishes to have personal data stored by the DKKV deleted, he or she may contact an employee of the data controller at any time. The DKKV employee will ensure that the request for deletion is complied with immediately.
If the personal data have been made public by the DKKV and our association, as the data controller, is obliged to delete the personal data in accordance with Article 17 Paragraph 1 of the DS-GVO, the DKKV will take reasonable measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, to inform other data controllers who process the published personal data that the data subject has requested these other data controllers to delete all links to these personal data or copies or replications of these personal data, unless the processing is necessary. The DKKV employee will take the necessary steps in individual cases.
e) Right to restrict processing, Art. 18 DSG-VO
If one of the above-mentioned conditions is met and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by DKKV, he or she may contact an employee of the data controller at any time. The DKKV employee will arrange for the restriction of the processing.
f) Right to data transferability, Art. 20 DSG-VO
In order to assert the right to data transferability, the person concerned can contact a DKKV employee at any time.
g) Right of objection, Art. 21 DSG-VO
In the event of an objection, DKKV will no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling reasons for processing which are worthy of protection and which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or unless the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
Where DKKV processes personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, the data subject shall have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for the purpose of such marketing. This also applies to profiling, insofar as it is connected with such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to DKKV processing for the purposes of direct marketing, DKKV e.V. will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.
In addition, the data subject has the right to object, for reasons arising from his or her particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning him or her that is carried out at DKKV for the purposes of scientific or historical research or for statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89, paragraph 1 of the DS-GVO, unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.
To exercise the right of objection, the data subject may directly contact any employee of the Deutsches Komitee Katastrophenvorsorge e.V. or any other employee. The data subject is also free to exercise his/her right of objection in connection with the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, by means of automated procedures involving technical specifications.
h) Automated decisions in individual cases including profiling, Art. 22 DSG-VO
Where the decision is (1) necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is taken with the express consent of the data subject, DKKV shall take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of the controller, to put forward its point of view and to challenge the decision.
10. privacy policy on the use and application of Twitter
Each time the data subject accesses one of the individual pages of this website operated by the data controller and on which a Twitter component (Twitter button) has been integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Twitter component to download a display of the corresponding Twitter component from Twitter. Further information on the Twitter buttons is available at about.twitter.com/en/resources/buttons. As part of this technical process, Twitter is informed which specific subpage of our website is visited by the person concerned. The purpose of integrating the Twitter component is to enable our users to disseminate the content of this website, to make this website known in the digital world and to increase our visitor numbers.
If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f DS-GVO, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and members.
13. the duration for which personal data are stored
We would like to inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary for a contract to be concluded that a data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the person concerned is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with him/her. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the person concerned could not be concluded. Before the person concerned makes personal data available, he/she must contact one of our employees. Our employee will inform the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what the consequences would be if the personal data were not provided.
