Privacy Policy in accordance with Art. 13 GDPR

In accordance with Art. 13 GDPR, we inform you about the legal basis of our data processing. If the legal basis is not explicitly stated in this data protection notice, the following provisions apply:

The legal basis for obtaining consent is Art. 6(1)(a) in conjunction with Art. 7 GDPR. For the processing of data necessary for the fulfillment of our services and contractual measures, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR is decisive. Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis for fulfilling our legal obligations. If processing is necessary to safeguard legitimate interests and these are not overridden by your fundamental rights, the processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Where processing is necessary to protect vital interests, Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

We follow the principles of data minimization in accordance with Art. 5(1)(c) GDPR and storage limitation in accordance with Art. 5(1)(e) GDPR. Your personal data will only be stored for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes stated in this declaration or as required by statutory retention periods. As soon as the respective purpose no longer applies or the statutory retention periods have expired, the data will be deleted without undue delay.

Among other things, tools from companies based in third countries, including the USA, are integrated on our website. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transmitted to the servers of the companies concerned. In third countries, the level of data protection often does not meet EU standards, which means there is a risk that your data will be passed on to local authorities. We have no influence on these processing procedures.

This website may contain links to third-party websites that are outside our control. If you follow such a link, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies. We accept no responsibility or liability for the content and privacy practices of these external websites.

External links are displayed when your cursor is moved over such a link. Your personal data will only be transferred to the target page when you actually click on it.

Please also note that some links may lead to a transfer of your data outside the European Economic Area.

Right of withdrawal: Your express consent is required for certain data processing. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. However, the revocation does not affect the legality of the data processing that has taken place up to the time of revocation.

Right to object: If the processing of your personal data is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to this processing at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation.

Right to lodge a complaint: If you consider that the processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

Right to data portability: If your data is processed automatically on the basis of consent or for the performance of a contract, you have the right to receive this data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.

Right of access, rectification and erasure: You have the right to obtain information about your processed personal data. If you have any questions, you can contact us at any time using the contact details provided in the legal notice.

Right to restriction of processing: You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data at any time, particularly if you dispute the accuracy of the data, processing is unlawful, or you have objected pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR.
