II. General Information on Data Processing
1. Scope of Processing of Personal Data
In principle, we only process personal data of our users to the extent necessary to provide a functional website as well as our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users takes place regularly only after the user’s consent. An exception applies in those cases in which prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.
2. Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.
In the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual measures.
Insofar as the processing of personal data is required 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 vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If 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 former interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.
2. Data Erasure and Storage Duration
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Furthermore, storage may take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws or other regulations to which the controller is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted 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 performance of a contract.

2. Description and Scope of Data Processing
Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer.
The following data is collected:
On our Internet server, as on other web servers, a log file is kept. This log file stores data records containing the IP address with which you are on the Internet and the Internet service provider you are using
Date and time of each access to our website,
the exact URL of each web page you visit
the data you requested from the server,
general information about the web browser (in particular the browser type and version) and operating system you used when accessing the website, and
partially the website from which you came to our Internet offer (the so-called „referrer”) are recorded.
3. Purpose of Data Processing
This information is used by us:
for the correct delivery of the respective website
for statistical purposes,
for further improvement of our Internet offer
to ensure the long-term functionality and integrity of our information technology systems, including defense against hazards in the event of attacks on our information technology systems, and
in the event of an attack on our information technology systems, to provide the necessary information for law enforcement authorities
required and used.
This data is collected by us anonymously and stored separately from all personal data provided to us by a data subject.
4. Legal Basis for Data Processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
5. Duration of Storage
Personal data of the data subjects will only be processed or stored by the controller for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, subject to other statutory provisions. Another determining criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period.
After the storage purposes cease to apply and existing statutory storage periods expire, the personal data will be blocked or deleted by the controller in accordance with the statutory provisions and requirements, even without a corresponding request from the data subject.
6. Objection and Removal Option
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is mandatory for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility of objection on the part of the user.
IV. E‑mail Contact
1. Description and Scope of Data Processing
Contact is only possible via the e‑mail addresses provided. In this case, the personal data of the user transmitted with the e‑mail will be stored.
In this context, no data will be passed on to third parties. The data will be used exclusively for processing the conversation.
2. Legal Basis for Data Processing
The legal basis for the processing of the data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR if the user has given his consent.
The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of sending an e‑mail is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If the e‑mail contact aims at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.
3. Purpose of Data Processing
The processing of the personal data from the input mask serves us solely to process the contact. In the case of contact by e‑mail, this also constitutes the necessary legitimate interest in the processing of the data.
The other personal data processed during the sending process serve to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.
4. Duration of Storage
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. For the personal data from the input mask of the contact form and those sent by e‑mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is terminated when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.
The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted at the latest after a period of seven days.
5. Objection and Removal Option
The user has the possibility to revoke his consent to the processing of personal data at any time. If the user contacts us by e‑mail, he can object to the storage of his personal data at any time. In such a case, the conversation cannot be continued.
V. Rights of the Data Subject
If your personal data is processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you have the following rights vis-à-vis the controller:
1. Right to Information
You may request confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning you is processed by us.
If such processing is taking place, you may request the following information from the controller:
the purposes for which the personal data are processed;
the categories of personal data that are processed;
the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been or will be disclosed;
the planned duration of the storage of the personal data concerning you or, if specific information on this is not possible, criteria for determining the storage duration;
the existence of a right to rectification or erasure of personal data concerning you, a right to restriction of processing by the controller or a right to object to such processing;
the existence of a right of appeal to a supervisory authority;
all available information on the origin of the data if the personal data are not collected from the data subject;
the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, pursuant to Art. 22 para. 1 and 4 GDPR and – at least in these cases – meaningful information about the logic involved and the scope and intended effects of such processing for the data subject.
You have the right to request information as to whether the personal data concerning you are transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you may request to be informed of the appropriate guarantees pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer.
2. Right to Rectification
You have a right to rectification and/or completion vis-à-vis the controller if the processed personal data concerning you are incorrect or incomplete. The controller shall make the correction without undue delay.
3. Right to Restriction of Processing
Under the following conditions, you may request the restriction of the processing of personal data concerning you:
if you dispute the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
the processing is unlawful and you object to the erasure of the personal data and request instead the restriction of the use of the personal data;
the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you need them for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims, or
if you have lodged an objection to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate grounds of the controller outweigh your grounds.
If the processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, such data may be processed – apart from being stored – only with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the Union or a member state.
If the restriction of processing has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.
4. Right to Erasure
Obligation to Erase
You may request the controller to erase personal data concerning you without undue delay, and the controller is obliged to erase such data without undue delay if one of the following grounds applies:
The personal data concerning you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
You revoke your consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
You lodge an objection to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you lodge an objection to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.
The personal data concerning you have been processed unlawfully.
The erasure of personal data concerning you is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the member states to which the controller is subject.
The personal data concerning you have been collected in relation to services offered by the information society pursuant to Art. 8 para. 1 GDPR.
Information to Third Parties
If the controller has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged to erase them pursuant to Art. 17 para. 1 GDPR, he shall take reasonable measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, to inform data controllers who process the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested them to erase all links to such personal data or copies or replications of such personal data.
Exceptions
The right to erasure does not exist insofar as the processing is necessary
to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;
to fulfill a legal obligation which requires processing under the law of the Union or of the member states to which the controller is subject, or to perform a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
for reasons of public interest in the field of public health pursuant to Art. 9 para. 2 lit. h and i and Art. 9 para. 3 GDPR;
for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89 para. 1 GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously prejudice the achievement of the objectives of such processing, or
for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims.
5. Right to Information
If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing vis-à-vis the controller, the latter is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.
You have the right vis-à-vis the controller to be informed about these recipients.
6. Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to the controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data has been provided, provided that
the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR and
the processing is carried out by means of automated methods.
In exercising this right, you also have the right to obtain that personal data concerning you be transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be adversely affected by this.
The right to data portability shall not apply to processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
7. Right to Object
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
The controller shall no longer process the personal data concerning you unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Where personal data concerning you are processed for direct marketing purposes, you shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing; this includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.
In the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.
8. Right to Withdraw Consent
You have the right to withdraw your data protection consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
9. Automated Individual Decision-Making, Including Profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing – including profiling – which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This shall not apply if the decision
is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and the controller,
is authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or
is based on your explicit consent.
However, these decisions shall not be based on special categories of personal data referred to in Article 9(1) of the GDPR, unless point (a) or (g) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR applies and suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests have been put in place.
In the cases referred to in points (1) and (3), the controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to contest the decision.
10. Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.
The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant on the progress and the outcome of the complaint including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Article 78 of the GDPR.
