Storage period

We generally delete your personal data when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.

If we have asked for your consent and you have given it, we will delete your personal data if you withdraw your consent and there is no other legal basis for the processing.

We will delete your personal data if you object to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing or if you object to the processing for the purposes of direct marketing or related profiling.

If deletion is not possible because processing is still necessary for compliance with a legal obligation (legal retention periods, etc.) to which we are subject or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims, we restrict the processing of your personal data.

You can also find more information on the storage period in the following passages.

Your rights

You have the following rights with respect to your personal data:

  • Right to information
  • Right to rectification
  • Right to deletion
  • Right to restrict processing
  • Right to object to processing
  • Right to data portability

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data carried out on the basis of Article 6 (1) (e) or (f) DS-GVO; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. We will then no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

If we process your personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. We will then no longer process your personal data for these purposes.

You have the right to revoke consent to the processing of your personal data at any time if you have given us such consent. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.

You have the right to complain to a supervisory authority about the processing of your personal data by us.

Provision of your personal data

The provision of your personal data is generally not required by law or contract and is not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are generally not obliged to provide your personal data. If this should nevertheless be the case, we will point this out to you separately when collecting your personal data (for example, by marking the mandatory fields in input forms).

Failure to provide your personal data regularly means that we will not process your personal data for one of the purposes described below and that you will not be able to take advantage of an offer related to the respective processing (example: without providing your e-mail address, you will not receive our newsletter).

Webhosting

We use external services for web hosting. These services may have access to personal data that is processed in the context of the use of our online offer.

Webserver-Logfiles

We process your personal data in order to be able to display our online offer to you and to ensure the stability and security of our online offer. In the process, information (for example, requested element, accessed URL, operating system, date and time of request, browser type and version used, IP address, protocol used, amount of data transferred, user agent, referrer URL, time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and/or HTTP status code) is stored in so-called log files (access log, error log, etc.).

If we have asked you for your consent and you have given it, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. a DS-GVO. If we have not asked you for your consent, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. f DS-GVO. Our legitimate interest here is the proper display of our online offer and ensuring the stability and security of our online offer.

Security

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of your personal data and other confidential content, we use encryption on our domain. You can recognize this in the browser line by the string "https://" and the lock symbol.

If you contact us, we process your personal data in order to process your contact.

If we have asked you for your consent and you have given it, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. a DS-GVO. If we have not asked you for your consent, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DS-GVO. Our legitimate interest here is the processing of your contact. If the processing is necessary to fulfill a contract with you or to carry out pre-contractual measures based on your request, the legal basis for the processing is also Art. 6 (1) lit. b DS-GVO.
