Processing of your data as part of our company's core activity

If you are our customer or business partner or are interested in our services, the type, scope and purpose of the processing of your data depends on the contractual or pre-contractual relationship between us. In this sense, the data processed by us includes all data that is or has been provided by you for the purpose of using the contractual or pre-contractual services and that is required to process your request or the contract concluded between us. Unless otherwise stated in the further information in this privacy policy, the processing of your data and its transfer to third parties is limited to the data that is necessary and appropriate to answer your inquiries and/or to fulfill the contract concluded between you and us, to protect our rights and to fulfill legal obligations. We will inform you which data is required for this before or as part of data collection. Insofar as we use third-party providers to provide our services, the privacy policies of the respective third-party providers apply.

Affected data:

  • Inventory data (e.g. names, addresses)
  • Payment data (e.g. bank details, invoices)
  • contact details (e.g. email address, telephone number, postal address)
  • Contract data (e.g. subject matter of contract, contract duration)

Affected persons: Interested parties, business and contract partners

Processing purpose: Processing of contractual services, communication and answering contact requests, office and organizational procedures

legal basis: Contract performance and pre-contractual inquiries, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, legal obligation, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR, legitimate interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR

Your rights under the GDPR

According to the GDPR, you have the following rights, which you can assert at any time from the person responsible named in Section 1 of this Privacy Policy:

  • Right to information: You have the right to request information from us as to whether and which data we process from you.
  • Right to rectification: You have the right to request that incorrect or incomplete data be corrected.
  • Right to delete: You have the right to request that your data be deleted.
  • Right to restriction: In certain cases, you have the right to request that we only process your data to a limited extent.
  • Right to data portability: You have the right to request that we transfer your data to you or another person responsible in a structured, common and machine-readable format.

Right of Withdrawal

You have the right to withdraw your consent to data processing at any time.

Right to object

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your data, which we base on our legitimate interest in accordance with Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. If you exercise your right to object, please explain the reasons. We will then no longer process your personal data unless we can prove to you that compelling legitimate reasons for data processing outweigh your interests and rights.

Irrespective of the above, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for advertising and data analysis purposes.

Please send your objection to the contact address of the person responsible given above.

When do we delete your data?

We delete your data when we no longer need it or when you tell us to do so. This means that - unless otherwise stated in the individual data protection notices in this privacy policy - we delete your data

  • when the purpose of data processing has ceased to exist and the respective legal basis stated in the individual data protection notices therefore no longer exists, e.g.
  • after termination of the contractual or membership relationships between us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or
  • following the cessation of our legitimate interest in further processing or storage of your data (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO),
  • if you exercise your right of withdrawal and no other legal legal basis for processing within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b-f GDPR applies,
  • if you exercise your right of objection and there are no compelling legitimate reasons to prevent the deletion.

However, if we still need to keep (certain parts of) your data for other purposes, for example because this requires tax retention periods (usually 6 years for business correspondence or 10 years for accounting receipts) or the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims arising from contractual relationships (up to four years) or the data is needed to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, we will delete (the part of) your (r) Data only after these deadlines have expired. However, until these deadlines have expired, we will restrict the processing of this data to these purposes (fulfillment of storage obligations).

In particular, such “tracking” cookies can store information about entered search terms or the frequency of page views. In addition, the surfing behavior of an individual user (e.g. viewing certain content, using functions, etc.) can also be stored in a user profile. Such profiles are used to show users content that matches their potential interests.

In addition, messenger services can also be used to send emoticons, electronic greeting cards, and contacts. In order for messages to be transmitted, subscribers must be connected to each other directly or via a server using a computer program (called a client) via a network such as the Internet. As a rule, messages can also be sent when the interlocutor is not online - the message is then cached by the service server and delivered to the recipient later when the recipient can be reached again. Finally, these services can also be used for screen sharing and online games.

If the service uses end-to-end encryption for the content sent (texts, attachments), only the selected communication partners, but not third parties or the service provider itself, can view the message. We therefore recommend that you install updates to the service regularly to ensure that the content is encrypted. However, the service provider has the option to access communication metadata. This includes the time and (depending on your settings) location of communication as well as the device you are using.

We would like to point out that, depending on the country of residence of the provider mentioned below, the data collected via their platform may be transferred and processed outside the area of the European Union. In this case, there is a risk that the level of data protection required by the GDPR will not be met and that the enforcement of your rights will not be possible or may only be difficult.

Affected data:

  • Inventory and contact data (e.g. name, telephone number, email address)
  • Content data (e.g. posts, photos, videos)
  • usage data (e.g. access times, websites clicked on)
  • communication data (e.g. information about the device used, IP address).

Processing purpose: Communications and marketing

legal basis: If we have asked you for your consent before using the respective service, this is the legal basis, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. In this respect, we make it clear that we will not transfer your contact details to the service provider for the first time without your consent. If we communicate with you via one of the following services as part of a contract initiation or as part of an existing contractual relationship, the legal basis is the fulfilment or preparation of the contract, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. In addition, we rely on our legitimate interests in fast and efficient communication and meeting the needs of our communication partners in communicating the following services, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
