Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data

Below, we inform you about the legal bases for the processing of personal data:

  1. If we have obtained your consent for the processing of personal data, Article 6(1) sentence 1 letter a) GDPR is the legal basis.
  2. If the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract or for taking pre-contractual measures at your request, Article 6(1) sentence 1 letter b) GDPR is the legal basis.
  3. If the processing is necessary for the fulfillment of a legal obligation to which we are subject (e.g., statutory retention requirements), Article 6(1) sentence 1 letter c) GDPR is the legal basis.
  4. If the processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the affected person or another natural person, Article 6(1) sentence 1 letter d) GDPR is the legal basis.
  5. If the processing is necessary for the protection of our legitimate interests or those of a third party, and your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms do not override these interests, Article 6(1) sentence 1 letter f) GDPR is the legal basis.

Disclosure of Personal Data to Third Parties and Processors

Without your consent, we generally do not disclose data to third parties. However, if this is the case, the disclosure is based on the previously mentioned legal grounds, such as when data is shared with online payment providers to fulfill a contract or due to a court order or legal obligation to release the data for the purposes of law enforcement, protecting against threats, or enforcing intellectual property rights.
We also use processors (external service providers, e.g., for web hosting of our websites and databases) to process your data. If data is shared with processors under a processing agreement, this always occurs in accordance with Article 28 of the GDPR. We carefully select our processors, monitor them regularly, and have the right to issue instructions regarding the data. Additionally, the processors must have implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures and comply with data protection regulations under the BDSG n.F. and the GDPR.

Data Transfer to Third Countries

With the adoption of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), a uniform basis for data protection in Europe has been established. Therefore, your data is primarily processed by companies to which the GDPR applies. However, if the processing occurs through third-party services outside the European Union or the European Economic Area, they must comply with the specific requirements of Articles 44 et seq. of the GDPR. This means that the processing is based on special guarantees, such as an officially recognized determination by the EU Commission of an adequate level of data protection or the adherence to officially recognized specific contractual obligations, known as “Standard Contractual Clauses.”
As we are unable to rely on the so-called “Privacy Shield” due to its invalidity, under Article 49(1) sentence 1 letter a) GDPR, we may seek your explicit consent for data transfers to the USA. In this regard, we inform you of the risks of secret access by US authorities and the potential use of data for surveillance purposes, possibly without legal recourse for EU citizens.

Deletion of Data and Retention Period

Unless explicitly stated otherwise in this privacy policy, your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the consent given for processing is revoked by you, or the purpose of storage ceases to exist and the data is no longer required for that purpose. However, data may be retained if necessary for evidentiary purposes or if legal retention obligations prevent deletion.

This includes, for example, commercial retention obligations for business correspondence under Section 257 (1) of the German Commercial Code (HGB) (6 years) and tax law retention obligations for records under Section 147 (1) of the German Fiscal Code (AO) (10 years). Once the prescribed retention period expires, your data will be blocked or deleted unless further storage is required for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

Existence of Automated Decision-Making

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling.
