Receiver

As part of the operation of the website and the services offered on the website, we use service providers who act as data processors. These service providers include software providers, cloud providers and technical support companies that are necessary for the fulfillment of our business purposes and help us to improve the quality of our services and offer innovative solutions.

When working with these service providers, we bind them to compliance with data protection by means of a data processing agreement and do not authorise them to process data for their own purposes.

In addition, personal data may be passed on to independent controllers such as tax consultants, law firms, courts or authorities, insofar as this is permitted or we are legally obliged to do so in order to meet legal requirements, ensure compliance and to assert or defend against legal claims.

Data security

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed without authorization, altered or disclosed.

In addition, we restrict access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who need it for business reasons and are legally authorized to use it.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and the relevant supervisory authority of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

Your rights

Right to information

You have the right to request information at any time about how and what personal data we process about you. If you make such a request, you will also receive a copy of the personal data we have stored about you. If these copies contain confidential information or personal data of other data subjects, we will black them out accordingly or alternatively inform you which personal data are contained on these copies and for what purposes.

Right to rectification

If the personal data we have stored about you is incorrect or incomplete, you have the right to demand immediate correction and/or completion at any time.

Right to erasure or restriction of processing

You have the right to request that we delete your personal data at any time. We will comply with this request immediately, unless we are subject to legal obligations that prohibit deletion at this time. This may be the case, for example, if we are obliged to store your data for a longer period of time for tax law reasons. If this applies to you, we will inform you of this upon your request for deletion, restrict processing for purposes other than storage and delete the data immediately after expiry of the statutory retention periods, without the need for any further request from you.

In addition to the right to erasure, you also have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data if:

  • You dispute that the personal data we have stored about you is correct until we have had the opportunity to check the accuracy of the data;
  • Our processing of your personal data is unlawful, but you oppose the erasure and alternatively request the restriction of processing;
  • We no longer need your personal data, but you need it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, or
  • you object to the processing in accordance with your right under Article 21 GDPR and as long as it has not yet been determined whether our interests outweigh yours.

Right to object to the processing

You have the right to object under the conditions of Article 21 GDPR. You have the possibility to object to the processing based on Article 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. This also applies accordingly to profiling based on these provisions. The information as to whether processing is based on Article 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR can be found in the above descriptions of the processing operations.

Right to withdraw consent

If processing is based on your consent, you can withdraw this consent at any time with effect for the future. This will not affect the lawfulness of the processing for the period prior to your withdrawal. Please note that if you withdraw your consent, we will no longer be able to offer you certain services, such as sending you our newsletter.

Right to data transfer

You have the right to receive the personal data you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, insofar as this is technically feasible. In addition, you have the right to request that we transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from us.

Automated decision-making in individual cases, including profiling

According to Art. 22 GDPR, 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. However, we do not currently use such methods

Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority

Independently of and in addition to the rights listed, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you is in breach of the GDPR.
