The controller decides alone or jointly with others on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, contact details, etc.).

Basis for data processing

We only process personal data in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations. This means that user data will only be processed if we have legal permission to do so, i.e,
– in order to provide our contractual services (e.g. processing orders) and online services, or if these are required by law (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b. and c. GDPR)
– we have your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a. and Art. 7 GDPR), as well as
– on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization and economic operation and security of our online offer within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR, in particular when measuring reach, creating profiles for advertising and marketing purposes and collecting access data and using the services of third-party providers).

Data transfer to third parties

Data is only passed on to third parties in accordance with legal requirements. We only pass on user data to third parties if this is necessary, for example, for contractual purposes or on the basis of legitimate interests in the economic and effective operation of our business.
If we use subcontractors to provide our services, we take suitable legal precautions and appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure the protection of personal data in accordance with the relevant statutory provisions.

Data transfer to a third country or an international organization

Third countries are countries in which the GDPR is not directly applicable law. This basically includes all countries outside the EU or the European Economic Area.
No data is transferred to a third country or an international organization without your consent or without a legal basis.

Storage duration

Unless a more specific storage period has been specified in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a justified request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, deletion will take place after these reasons no longer apply.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Some data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time. An informal notification by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

As a data subject, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority in the event of a breach of data protection law. The competent regulatory authority for matters related to data protection legislation is the data protection officer of the German state in which our company is headquartered.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to third parties. The data will be provided in a machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only take place if it is technically feasible.

Right to information, correction, blocking, deletion

You have the right to free information about your stored personal data, the origin of the data, its recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data at any time within the framework of the applicable legal provisions.
