General information on data processing, legal basis, storage period and recipients of the data
General information on data processing and legal basis
We process personal data in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations, in particular the GDPR and the BDSG. Data processing by us only takes place on the basis of legal permission. When using this website, we only process personal data with your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR), for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or at your request for the implementation of pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR) or to fulfil a legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR) If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
Duration of storage
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. Data may also be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. The data will also be blocked or erased if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.
Recipient/disclosure of the data
We only pass on your personal data to third parties if this is necessary for the fulfilment of the purposes and is covered by the legal basis in individual cases. Insofar as we are dependent on external service providers for the provision of services, for example for support, for the processing of payments and in the areas of the permissible sending of advertising measures, the information required for the fulfilment of the order will be passed on to these external service providers. These external service providers are carefully selected by us. In addition, an order processing contract has been concluded with each of these service providers so that it is regularly reviewed to ensure that your data is used in accordance with data protection regulations.
Furthermore, in individual cases we disclose personal data to third parties if this serves the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims. Possible recipients may then be, for example, law enforcement authorities, lawyers, auditors, courts, etc. Data may also be passed on if we are entitled or obliged to pass on data due to legal provisions and/or official or court orders. In particular, this may involve the provision of information for the purposes of criminal prosecution, to avert danger or to enforce intellectual property rights.
Rights of data subjects, right to lodge a complaint
