Legal information and notes on data protection

1.1. Introduction
Thank you for visiting our website. We take data protection very seriously and are committed to protecting your personal data as part of our website offerings.
Personal data means all data relating to the personal and factual situation of a natural person. Personal information collected on our website is used exclusively for our purposes.

1.2. Legal basis of data processing
Consent: if we have obtained your consent for personal data processing operations, Article 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the legal basis for data processing.
Contract: When processing personal data for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) DSGVO. This also applies to processing necessary for the execution of pre-contractual measures.
Legal obligation: if the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6(1)(c) DSGVO serves as the legal basis.
In cases where the vital interests of the user or another natural person make it necessary to process personal data, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(d) of the DSGVO.
Legitimate interest: If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override the first interest, Article 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO serves as the legal basis for the processing. The legitimate interest of our company lies in the conduct of our business activities.

1.3. Rights of the data subject
As part of our data processing, your personal information is processed. You are entitled to your rights under the third chapter of the GDPR against our company.
We observe the rights to information, correction, restriction of processing, deletion or transferability of your personal data. You can enforce these rights as follows:

(c) the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, particularly in the case of recipients in third countries or international organizations;
(d) if possible, the expected duration of storage of personal data or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining this duration;

If personal data is transferred to a third country or international organization, you have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards under Article 46 of the GDPR in connection with the transfer.
We will provide you with a copy of the personal data being processed. For each additional copy requested, we may charge a reasonable fee based on administrative costs. If the access request is made electronically, we must provide the information in a commonly used electronic format unless otherwise specified.
The right to receive a copy shall not affect the rights and freedoms of any other person.

Right of rectification
You also have the right to request immediate rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, the user has the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, including through a supplementary declaration.
Right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”).

(d) Personal data have been processed unlawfully.
e) The deletion of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation under Union or member state law to which we are subject.
(f) personal data were collected in connection with information society services offered in accordance with Article 8(1).

This does not apply to the extent that the treatment is necessary (a) for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information; (b) for the performance of a legal obligation requiring processing under Union or Member State law to which we are subject, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in us; (c) for reasons of public interest in the field of public health in accordance with Article 9, paragraph 2, subparagraphs (h) and (i), and Article 9(3); (d) for archiving, scientific or historical research in the public interest or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1), where the right referred to in paragraph 1 is likely to make it impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the purposes of such processing; or (e) for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal rights.

(d) the data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) as long as it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate grounds of the controller outweigh those of the data subject.
(Where processing has been restricted pursuant to paragraph 1, such personal data may be processed, as well as stored, only with the consent of the data subject or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal rights or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of substantial public interest of the Union or a member state.) 4.5.2016 L 119/44 Official Journal of the European Union EN
