General information about data processing

- 1. Extent of the processing of personal data

We only ever process our users’ personal data in so far as this is necessary for the provision of a functioning website and our content and services. As a rule, our users’ personal data are processed only with the prior consent of the user. An exception is made in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by legislation.

- 2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Provided that we obtain the consent of the Data Subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 Para. 1 a of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.

With the processing of personal data necessary for fulfilling a contract to which the Data Subject is a party, Art. 6 Para. 1 b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to the processing activities necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

If processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal duty to which our company is subject, Art. 6 Para. 1 c GDPR serves as the legal basis.

In the event that the vital interests of the Data Subject or of another natural person make the processing by personal data necessary, Art. 6 Para. 1 d GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or of a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the Data Subject do not take precedence over the first-named interest, Art. 6 Para. 1 f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

- 3. Data deletion and retention period

The Data Subject’s personal data are deleted or quarantined as soon as the purpose of the storage lapses. Storage may continue beyond that if this has been stipulated by European or national legislation in EU regulations, acts or other legislation to which the Data Controller is subject. Quarantining or deletion of the data will also occur when a retention period specified by the above-mentioned legislation lapses unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

Provision of the website and production of log files

- 1. Description and extent of the data processing

With every instance of access to our website, our system automatically gathers data and information from the accessing system’s computer. Here the following data are recorded:

• Information about the browser type and the version used

• The user’s operating system

• The user’s internet service provider

• The user’s IP address

• Date and time of access

• Websites from which the user’s system comes to our website

• Websites accessed by the user’s system via our website

The data are stored in our system’s log files. There is no storage of these data with other personal data of the user.

- 2. Legal basis for the data processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data and the log files is Art. 6 Para. 1 f GDPR.

- 3. Purpose of the data processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to permit delivery of the website to the user’s computer. For this purpose the user’s IP address must be stored for the duration of the session.

Storage in log files occurs to ensure that the website works. In addition, the data allow us to optimise the website and to guarantee the security of our IT systems. The data are not evaluated for marketing purposes in this context.

These purposes also encompass our legitimate interest in the data processing per Art. 6 Para. 1 f GDPR.

- 4. Retention period

The data are deleted as soon as they are no longer required for the achievement of the purpose for which they were recorded. With the gathering of the data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the relevant session has ended.

With the gathering of data in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond that is possible. In that event, the users’ IP addresses are deleted or altered so that it is no longer possible to associate them with the accessing client.

- 5. Options for withdrawal of consent and deletion

The gathering of the data for the provision of the website and the storage of the data in log files are essential to the operation of the website. So there is no option for withdrawal of consent by the user.
