If you request deletion or revoke consent for data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods); in this case, deletion takes place after these reasons cease to apply.

General Notes on the Legal Basis of Data Processing

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, if special categories of data under Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed. In case of explicit consent to transfer personal data to third countries, processing is also based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR.

In the course of our business activities, we work with various external parties. This may involve the transfer of personal data to these parties. We transfer personal data only when necessary for contract fulfillment, when legally required (e.g., transfer to tax authorities), when we have a legitimate interest according to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or when another legal basis permits the transfer. When using processors, we transfer personal data only on the basis of a valid Data Processing Agreement. In cases of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Many data processing operations are possible only with your explicit consent. You may revoke consent at any time. The legality of data processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected.

Right to Object to Data Processing in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME, FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE APPLICABLE LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ASSERTION, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, 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 TO THE EXTENT IT IS ASSOCIATED WITH SUCH DIRECT MARKETING.

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the Member State of their habitual residence, workplace, or the place of the alleged violation. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract, in a common, machine-readable format, either to yourself or to a third party. If you request direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will be done only if technically feasible.

Access, Rectification, and Deletion

You have the right, within the scope of statutory regulations, to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, a right to rectification or deletion. You may contact us at any time for this purpose or for further questions about personal data.

Right to Restrict Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of processing your personal data. You may contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restrict processing applies in the following cases:

  • If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request restriction of processing your personal data.
  • If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request restriction of processing instead of deletion.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request restriction instead of deletion.
  • If you have filed an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be made between your and our interests. As long as it is not yet determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of processing your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data – apart from storage – may only be processed with your consent or to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
