Notice on Data Transfer to Non-Secure Third Countries and Transfer to US Companies Not DPF-Certified
We use, among other things, tools from companies based in non-secure third countries and US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these countries and processed there. We would like to point out that, in non-secure third countries, a data protection level comparable to that of the EU cannot be guaranteed. We also point out that the USA as a safe third country generally provides a data protection level comparable to that of the EU. Data transfer to the USA is permissible if the recipient has a certification under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF) or has suitable additional guarantees. Information on transfers to third countries, including data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy.
Recipients of Personal Data
In the context of our business operations, we work with various external parties. In this process, it may also be necessary to transfer personal data to these external parties. We only share personal data with external parties if this is necessary for contract fulfillment, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., sharing data with tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the transfer under Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the data transfer. When using processors, we only share our customers’ personal data based on a valid contract for processing. In the case of joint processing, a contract for joint processing will be concluded.
Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing procedures are only possible with your explicit consent. You can withdraw an already granted consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and Against Direct Advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)
If data processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. e or f GDPR, you have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection under Art. 21 (1) GDPR). If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such advertising purposes; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will consequently no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection under Art. 21 (2) GDPR).
Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
In case of violations of GDPR, affected persons have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the location of the alleged infringement. The right to complain is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to request data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract to be handed over to you or a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
Information, Correction, and Deletion
You have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and the purpose of data processing at any time within the framework of applicable legal provisions, and a right to correction or deletion of this data if applicable. You can contact us at any time regarding this and any other questions on the topic of personal data.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of processing your personal data. You can contact us at any time regarding this. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases: If you dispute 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 the restriction of processing your personal data. If the processing of your personal data is unlawful, you may request restriction of data processing instead of deletion. If we no longer need your personal data but you need it to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of processing your personal data instead of deletion. If you have lodged an objection under Art. 21 (1) GDPR, a weighing of interests between yours and our interests must take place. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of processing your personal data. If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data – apart from their 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.
SSL/TLS Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line. When SSL/TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Objection to Advertising Emails
The use of contact details published in the context of the imprint obligation for sending unsolicited advertising and informational materials is hereby expressly objected to. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the case of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, for example, through spam emails.
Data Collection on This Website
Server Log Files
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are: browser type and browser version, operating system used, referrer URL, hostname of the accessing computer, time of the server request, IP address. A consolidation of this data with other data sources is not carried out. The collection of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free representation and optimization of their website – for this purpose, the server log files must be collected.
Contact Form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not share this data without your consent. The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR, provided your inquiry relates to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively processing inquiries directed to us (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR) if requested; consent can be revoked at any time. The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage ceases to apply (e.g., after your inquiry has been completely processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular, retention periods – remain unaffected.
Request via Email, Phone, or Fax
If you contact us via email, phone, or fax, your inquiry, including all personal data resulting from it (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not share this data without your consent. The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR, provided your inquiry relates to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively processing inquiries directed to us (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR), if requested; consent can be revoked at any time. The data you send us via contact inquiries will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage ceases to apply (e.g., after the processing of your inquiry is completed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular, statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.
