I. Registration on social media platforms

On the social media platforms on which we present our company, users have the option of registering by providing their personal data. The data is entered into an input mask and transmitted to the provider of the platform and stored there. User registration on the respective social media platforms is on a voluntary basis. We would like to point out that every user uses our pages on social media platforms and their functions under their own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of interactive functions, such as commenting, sharing or rating. When visiting our pages on social media platforms, the provider of the platform collects user information, such as the IP address, via the device used by the user. Our company is not involved in the processing of personal data for the use of the interactive functions and for the registration process on the social media platforms. Information about the legal basis for the data processing, purpose of the data processing, duration of storage, requests for information, options for objection and removal can be found in the data protection information of the respective platform providers.

For all further processing of personal data, joint responsibility applies in accordance with Article 26 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The data privacy declaration concerning our company can be found in points II to VI.

III. General information on data processing

1. Scope of processing of personal data

In principle, we collect and use personal data of our users only when it is provided by the user and is necessary for an interaction that is required of us.

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 (a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.

For the processing of personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 para. 1 (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies for processing which is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 (c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make the processing of personal data essential, Art. 6 para. 1 (d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or of a third party and where the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh this first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 para. 1 (f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

3. Data deletion and storage period

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. Storage may continue if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other regulations to which the controller is subject. Data is also deleted or blocked when a retention period prescribed by the specified norms expires, unless further retention of the data is required for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

IV. Rights of the data subject

If your personal data is processed, you are the data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you have the following rights vis-à-vis the controller:

1. Right to information

2. Right to rectification

You have the right to correction and/or completion vis-à-vis the controller when the processed personal data pertaining to you is incorrect or incomplete. The controller must undertake the corrections without delay.

3. Right to restriction of processing

(1)       if you contest the accuracy of the personal data pertaining to you, for a period of time that enables the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;

(2)       if the processing is unlawful and you reject the erasure of the personal data and instead request the restriction of the use of the personal data;

(3)       if the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you require it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims; or

(4)       if you have objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21 para. 1 GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate reasons of the controller outweigh your reasons.

If the processing of your personal data has been restricted, this personal data – apart from storage – will be processed only with your consent, or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of an important public interest of the EU or of a Member State.

If the processing has been restricted in accordance with the above requirements, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

4. Right to deletion

a) Obligation to delete

You have the right to demand of the controller that the personal data pertaining to you is deleted immediately, and the controller is obligated to delete this personal data, provided one of the following reasons applies:

(1)       The personal data pertaining to you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.

(2)       You revoke your consent on which the processing was based in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 (a) or Art. 9 para. 2 (a) GDPR and there are no other legal grounds for the processing.

(3)       You object to the processing pursuant to Article 21 para. 1 GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Article 21 para. 2 GDPR.

(4)       The personal data concerning you has been processed unlawfully.

(5)       The deletion of the personal data pertaining to you is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation under EU law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.

(6)       The personal data pertaining to you was collected in relation to information society services offered in accordance with Article 8 para. 1 GDPR.

b) Information to third parties

Where the controller has disclosed the personal data pertaining to you and is obliged pursuant to Article 17 para. 1 GDPR to erase this data, the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers processing the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested the deletion by such controllers of any links to this personal data or have requested copies or replications of this personal data.

c) Exceptions

The right to deletion does not exist if the processing is necessary:

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

(2)       to comply with a legal obligation requiring processing under EU or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or to perform a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;

(3)       for reasons of public interest in the field of public health in accordance with Art. 9 para. 2 (h) and (i) as well as Art. 9 para. 3 GDPR;

(4)       for public-interest archiving purposes, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89 para. 1 GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in Section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of this processing, or

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

5. Right to instruction

If you have asserted your right to rectification, deletion or restriction of the processing against the controller, the controller is obliged to instruct all recipients to whom the personal data pertaining to you has been disclosed of this rectification or deletion of the data or restriction of the processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.

You have the right vis-à-vis the controller to be informed of these recipients.

6. Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data pertaining to you that you have provided to the controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. In addition, you have the right to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data have been provided, insofar as

(1)       the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 (a) GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 (a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 (b) GDPR, and

(2)       the processing is carried out by automated means.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to insist that the personal data pertaining to you is transferred directly from one data controller to another, to the extent that this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons may not be impacted by this.

The right to data portability does not apply if processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

7. Right of objection

You have the right, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of personal data pertaining to you on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 (e) or (f ) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

The controller no longer processes the personal data pertaining to you, unless it can prove compelling, protection-worthy reasons for the processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.

If your personal data is processed for the purposes of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for these purposes; the same applies to profiling, provided it is also connected to such direct marketing.

If you object to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of direct marketing, the personal data pertaining to you will no longer be processed for these purposes.

In connection with the use of services of the information society and notwithstanding Regulation 2002/58/EC, you are also free to exercise your right of objection by means of automated procedure in which technical specifications are used.

8. Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law

You have the right to revoke your consent under data protection law at any time. The lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent up to the point of the revocation is not affected by the withdrawal of consent. You can submit your revocation to the controller either by post or by email.

9. Automated decision-making in the individual case, including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects against you or significantly affects you in a similar way. This does not apply if the decision

(1)       is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the controller,

(2)       is permitted under EU or Member State law to which the controller is subject and that legislation contains appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests; or

(3)       is made with your express consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Article 9 para. 1 GDPR, unless Article 9 para. 2 (a) or (g) applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.

With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your own point of view and to contest the decision.

10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to another administrative or judicial remedy, you also have the right to appeal to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, workplace or where the alleged violation took place, if your are of the opinion that the processing of the personal data pertaining to you violates the GDPR.

The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the status and results of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Article 78 GDPR.
