General information on data protection processing
We are pleased with your interest in our website. Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below, we will inform you in detail about how your data is handled. We generally only collect and use personal data from our users to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. The collection and use of our users' personal data regularly only takes place with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases in which obtaining prior consent is not possible for actual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by legal regulations.
2.
Legal basis for the processing of personal data
To the extent that we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Article 6 (1) (a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis. When processing personal data that is necessary to fulfill a contract to which the data subject is a party, Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. To the extent that processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis. In the event that the vital interests of the data subject and of another natural person require the processing of personal data, Article 6 (1) (d) GDPR serves as the legal basis. If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
3.
Disclosure of data to third parties and third-party providers
Within the framework of legal regulations, we are entitled to commission other companies and individuals to carry out tasks on our behalf for which the disclosure of personal data is necessary. Personal data will only be passed on to third parties on the basis of legal permission and within the framework of legal requirements. We only pass on user data to third parties if this is necessary for contractual purposes, for example based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b of the GDPR, or if we use services within the scope of our legitimate interests, Article 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR. If we commission third parties to process data within the framework of a so-called order processing contract, this is done on the basis of Art. 28 GDPR. If we use third-party services to provide our services, we take appropriate legal precautions and technical and organizational measures to ensure the protection of personal data in accordance with the relevant legal regulations. Personal data may also be transferred to servers outside the EU or to trustworthy third parties who have their servers outside the EU. You should be aware that many countries do not offer the same legal protection for personal information as you enjoy in the EU. While your personal information is located in another country, it may be accessed by courts, law enforcement and national security authorities of that country in accordance with those laws. Subject to your express consent or contractually or legally required transfer, we only process or have the data processed outside the EU in third countries with a recognized level of data protection, contractual obligations through so-called standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission, if certifications or binding internal data protection regulations exist (Art. 44 to Art. 49 GDPR).
