General information about data processing

 

Extent of processing of personal data in general

As a matter of principle, we only process personal data to the extent required in order to provide a properly functioning website and to deliver our content and services.

Legal basis for processing of personal data:

The legal basis for processing personal data is Article 6 (1) a) – f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

If the data subject gives consent, Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR is the legal basis.

Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR is the legal basis for the processing of personal data for the fulfilment of a contract in which the data subject is a contracting party or for the processing procedures for pre-contractual measures.

If processing is required to meet a legal obligation of the data controller, Art. 6 (1) c) GDPR is the legal basis.

If essential interests of the data subject or another natural person make processing necessary, Art. 6 (1) d) GDPR is the legal basis.

If processing is required to carry out a task that is in the public interest or to exercise public authority that has been transferred to the data controller, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) e) GDPR.

If processing is required to protect a legitimate interest of our company and if the interests, basic freedoms and basic rights of the data subject do not outweigh this, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR.

 

Provision of personal data for conclusion of a contract or on the basis of statutory retention obligations

Whenever you make contact with us, we collect personal data. This data is saved by us, partly in accordance with statutory regulations, partly because it is required to conclude a contract. If you wish to conclude a contract with us, you must provide us with your data so that we can deliver/render our services to/for you. We are also under legal retention obligations in respect of tax and commercial law that we must meet. Otherwise we may be unable to provide you with our services.

Before providing your personal data, you are welcome to get in touch with your contact in our company to find out if we require your data to conclude a contract and/or to meet our statutory retention obligations and what the consequences will be if you do not provide us with this data.

 

Data erasure and storage period

We store your personal data as long as is necessary to fulfil the particular purpose or as is prescribed by legal regulations, Art. 6 (1) c) GDPR.

If the purpose of storage of personal data no longer exists, the data shall be erased after 6 months or its processing shall be restricted, unless there is still a need for further storage of the data to conclude or fulfil a contract.

Storage beyond this shall take place only if European or national legislation dictates.
