Under no circumstances will we sell or lease your personal information to third parties for marketing or other purposes. If you do not agree with the content of the data protection provisions, please do not send any personal data to us. 1. General information/Definitions This Privacy Statement is based on definitions contained in the GDPR and it should be easily readable and comprehensible to everyone. For that reason, we would like to explain some terminology at the outset: a) Personal data Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person. b) Data subject A data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person, whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing. c) Processing Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction. d) Restriction of processing Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting its processing in the future. e) Profiling Profiling is any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements. f) Pseudonymisation Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person. g) Controller The controller is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be laid down by Union or Member State law. h) Processor/contract data processor The processor/contract data processor is a natural person or legal entity, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller. i) Recipient Recipient is a natural person or legal entity, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data is disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data connected with a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law will not be regarded as recipients. j) Third party Third party is a natural person or legal entity, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, is authorised to process personal data. k) Consent Consent of the data subject is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, indicates agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her. 2.
