Data Protection - Valsight
This Privacy Policy explains in detail how we treat your personal information when you use the Valsight websites.
This Privacy Policy clarifies the nature, scope and purpose of the processing of personal data (hereinafter referred to as “Data”) within our online offering and the related websites, features and content, as well as external online presence, e.g. our social media profiles. With regards to the terminology used, e.g. “processing” or “responsible”, we refer to the definitions in Article 4 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).Responsible:
You can contact the Data Protection Officer at Valsight GmbH here: privacy@valsight.com.
“Personal information” means any information related to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter the “data subject”). A natural person is considered to be identifiable if it can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by association with an identifier such as a name, with an identification number, with location data, with an online identifier (e.g. cookie) or with one or more special features, which express the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of this natural person.
“Processing” means any process or series of operations associated with personal data carried out with or without the aid of automated procedures. The term “processing” is broad, e.g. it includes the viewing of data, and thus includes virtually every handling of data.
“Responsible person” means the natural or legal person, public authority, establishment or other facility that decides, alone or in concert with others, on the purposes and means of processing personal data.
The legal basis for obtaining consent is Article 6 (1) lit. a and Art. 7 GDPR, the legal basis for the processing for the fulfillment of our services and the execution of contractual measures as well as the response to inquiries is Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR, the legal basis for processing in order to fulfill our legal obligations is Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR, and the legal basis for processing in order to safeguard our legitimate interests is Article 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. d GDPR serves as a legal basis.
If, in the context of our processing, we disclose data to other persons and companies (contract processors or third parties), transmit data to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this will only be done based on a legal permission (e.g. if a transmission of the data to third parties, as to payment service providers, is required to fulfill the contract, see Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR), if you have consented, if a legal obligation stipulates it, or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. the use of agents, web hosts, etc.). If we commission third parties to process data based on a so-called “mandate processing contract”, this is done based on Art. 28 GDPR.
If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if this occurs in the context of the use of third party services or disclosure or transmission of data to third parties, this will only be done if it is to fulfill our (pre)contractual obligations, based on your consent, based on a legal obligation or on the basis of our legitimate interests. Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we process or have the data processed in a third country only in the presence of the special conditions of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR. This means that the processing takes place for example based on specific guarantees, such as the officially recognized level of data protection (e.g. for the US through the Privacy Shield) or compliance with officially recognized special contractual obligations (so-called “standard contractual clauses”).
You have the right to ask for confirmation as to whether the data in question is being processed and for information about this data, as well as for further information and a copy of the data in accordance with Art. 15 GDPR.
You have the right to revoke issued consent in accordance with. Art. 7 (3) GDPR, with effect for the future.
You can at any time object to the future processing of your data in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR. The objection may be especially against data processing for direct marketing purposes.
The personal data of the person concerned will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage is not applicable. In addition, such storage may take place if stipulated by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Blocking or deletion of the data also takes place when the storage period prescribed by the standards mentioned expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion of a contract or the fulfillment of a contract.
