I. General information on data processing

1. Scope of the personal data processing

We generally only collect and use the personal data of our users if this is required for the provision of a functional website as well as of our content and services. The personal data of our users are collected and used regularly only if the user agrees. An exception applies in cases in which a prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and if the processing of the data is permitted according to the legal provisions.

 

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Insofar as we obtain the data subject's consent for the processing of personal data, art. 6, para. 1, lit. of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis for the personal data processing.

During the personal data processing required for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, art. 6, para. 1, lit. b of the GDPR serves as the legal basis. This principle also applies to processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual measures.

Insofar as the processing of personal data is required for the fulfilment of a legal duty to which our company is subject, art. 6, para. 1, lit. c of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, art. 6, para. 1, lit. d of the GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If the processing is required to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or of a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, art. 6, para. 1, lit. f of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

 

3. Deletion of data and storage duration

The personal data of the involved person will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage is omitted. In addition, storage can take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other regulations the responsible person is subject to. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the standards mentioned expires, unless there is a need for further data storage to conclude or perform a contract.

 

II. Provision of the website and creation of log files

1. Description and scope of the data processing

Each time our website is accessed, our system will automatically collect data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer.

In this context, the following data will be collected:

  • Information about the browser type and version used
  • The operating system of the user
  • The internet service provider of the user
  • The IP address of the user
  • Date and time of access
  • Websites from which the system of the user can reach our website
  • Websites which are accessed by the system of the user through our website

The data will also be stored in the log files of our system. Storage of these data together with other personal data of the user will not be carried out.

 

2. Legal basis for the data processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and the log files is art. 6, para. 1, lit. f GDPR.

 

3. Purpose of the data processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is required to enable the website to be delivered to the computer of the user. For this purpose, the IP address of the user must remain stored for the duration of the session.

The log files are saved in order to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimise the website and ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes will not be carried out in this context.

Our legitimate interest in data processing according to art. 6, para. 1, lit. f of the GDPR also consists of these purposes.

 

4. Storage duration

The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. In case of the collection of data to enable provision of the website this is the case if the respective session has been concluded.

In case of the storage of data in the logfiles this will occur after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond this is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or anonymised, so that it is no longer possible to assign them to the calling client.

 

5. Opposition and removal options

The collection of the data to make the website available and the storage of the data in log files is essential for the operation of the website. As a consequence, the user has no option for appeal.

Salutation, last name, first name, company, department, street, house number, zip code, city, telephone, fax, email, message

For the processing of the data your consent is obtained as part of the submission process and reference is made to this data protection declaration.

In this context, there is no data transfer to third parties. The data is used exclusively for processing the conversation.

 

2. Legal basis for the data processing

The processing of personal data from the input mask serves us only for the contact processing. In case of a contact via email, this is also the necessary legitimate interest in the data processing.

The other personal data processed during the sending process serve to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.

 

4. Storage duration

The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. The personal data from the contact form of the input form and the data sent by e-mail will be deleted when the respective conversation with the user ends. The conversation is concluded when you can infer from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.

 

5. Opposition and removal options

If the processing restriction was carried out according to the conditions mentioned above, you will be informed by the responsible person before the annulment of the restriction.

 

4. Right to deletion

a) Obligation to delete

The right to deletion does not exist if the processing is required

(1) to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;

(5) to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

 

5. Right to be informed

If you have asserted the right to correction, deletion or restriction of processing towards the responsible person, the latter is obliged to inform all recipients to whom the personal data related to you have been disclosed of this correction or deletion of the data or restriction of processing, unless this proves to be impossible or requires a disproportionate effort.

Towards the responsible person you have the right to be informed about these recipients.

 

6. Right to data portability

You are entitled to receive the personal data provided by you to the responsible person in a structured, common and machine-readable format. In addition, you are entitled to transfer these data to another responsible person without hindrance from this latter to whom the personal data has been transmitted, provided that

(1) the processing is based on consent in accordance with art. 6, para. 1, lit. a of GDPR or with art. 9, para. 2, lit. a of the GDPR or on a contract according to art. 6, para. 1, lit. b of GDPR and

(2) the processing is carried out by using automated processes.

In exercising this right you have the additional right to ensure that the personal data are transferred directly from one responsible person to another, if this is technically feasible. Other people’s freedoms and rights must not be affected by this.

7. Right to objection

For reasons arising from your particular situation, you have the right, at any time, to object against the processing of personal data related to you which was carried out pursuant to art. 6 para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

The responsible person shall no longer process your personal data, unless the person can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is carried out for the purposes of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.

If personal data is processed in order to operate direct mail activities, you have the right to object at any time against the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is associated with such direct mail activities.

If you oppose  processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.

Regardless of Directive 2002/58/EC, you have the opportunity of exercising your right to object in connection with the use of services of the information society by using automated procedures that use technical specifications.

 

8. Right to withdrawal of the data protection declaration of consent

You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under the data protection law at any time. The revocation of the consent does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent given, until the revocation.

9. Automated decision in individual cases including profiling

You are entitled to not be subjected to a decision based solely on automated processing - including profiling - which has a legal effect on you or limits you significantly in a similar way. This principle does not apply if the decision

(1) is required for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the responsible person,

(2) is permissible based on legal provisions of the European Union or the member states the responsible person is subject to and if the said legal provisions include appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests or

(3) is made with your express consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data according to art. 9, para. 1 of the GDPR, unless art. 9, para. 2, lit. a or g is applied and appropriate measures have been taken for the protection of your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.

Regarding the cases mentioned under (1) and (3), the responsible person takes adequate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the responsible person, to express your own position and to oppose the decision.

 

10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you are entitled to complain to a supervisory authority, in particular to that in the member state of your residence, place of work or place of alleged infringement, if you think that the processing of personal data related to you violates the GDPR.

The supervisory authority the complaint was lodged to has to inform the complainant of the status and results of the complaint, including the option of a judicial remedy according to art. 78 of the GDPR.
