Security and protection of your personal data
We consider it our primary responsibility to maintain the confidentiality of the personal data you provide and to protect it from unauthorized access. We therefore take the utmost care and apply state-of-the-art security standards to ensure maximum protection of your personal data.
As a private-law company, we are subject to the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the regulations of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). We have taken technical and organizational measures to ensure that the data protection regulations are observed both by us and by our external service providers.
Definitions
The legislator requires that personal data be processed lawfully, fairly, and in a manner that is transparent to the data subject ("lawfulness, fairness, transparency"). To ensure this, we inform you about the individual legal definitions that are also used in this privacy policy:
- Personal data
"Personal data" means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as "data subject"); A natural person is considered identifiable if they can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by association with an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
- processing
"Processing" means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, distribution, or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction.
- Restriction of processing
"Restriction of processing" means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting its future processing.
- profiling
"Profiling" means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of such personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning that natural person's performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location, or movements.
- pseudonymization
"Pseudonymization" is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
- file system
"File system" means any structured collection of personal data that is accessible according to specific criteria, regardless of whether this collection is managed centrally, decentrally, or according to functional or geographical criteria.
- person in charge
"Controller" means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.

However, public authorities that may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients; the processing of those data by those public authorities shall be in compliance with the applicable data protection rules according to the purposes of the processing.
- third
"Third party" means any natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor, and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data.

We will provide a copy of the personal data that is the subject of the processing. For any further copies you request, we may charge a reasonable fee based on administrative costs. If you submit your request electronically, the information shall be provided in a commonly used electronic format, unless you specify otherwise. The right to receive a copy pursuant to paragraph 3 shall not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
(4) Right to rectification
You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate personal data concerning you without delay. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, you have the right to request that incomplete personal data be completed, including by means of a supplementary statement.
(5) Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten")
You have the right to request that the controller delete personal data concerning you without delay, and we are obliged to delete personal data without delay if one of the following reasons applies:
- The personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
- The data subject withdraws consent on which the processing is based in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
- The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR.
- The personal data was processed unlawfully.
- The erasure of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.
- The personal data was collected in relation to the information society services offered in accordance with Article 8(1) of the GDPR.
If the controller has made the personal data public and is obliged to erase it in accordance with paragraph 1, it shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, taking into account available technology and implementation costs, to inform controllers who process the personal data that a data subject has requested them to delete all links to, or copies or replications of, that personal data.
The right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") does not apply if processing is necessary:
- to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;
- for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
- for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Article 9(2)(h) and (i) and Article 9(3) GDPR;
- for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1) of the GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in paragraph 1 is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing, or
- to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims.
(6) Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data if one of the following conditions applies:
- the accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
- the processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests the restriction of their use instead;
- the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by the data subject for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or
- the data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, as long as it is not yet clear whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the data subject.
If processing has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, such personal data shall, with the exception of storage, only be processed with the consent of the data subject or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.
To exercise the right to restrict processing, the data subject may contact us at any time using the contact details provided above.
(7) Right to data portability
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and you have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided, provided that:
- the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, and
- processing is carried out using automated procedures.
When exercising the right to data portability pursuant to paragraph 1, you have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another controller, where technically feasible. Exercising the right to data portability does not affect the right to erasure ("right to be forgotten"). This right does not apply to processing that is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
(8) Right to object
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The controller shall no longer process the personal data unless the controller can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
If personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing purposes; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.
In connection with the use of information society services, you may exercise your right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC.
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1), unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.
You can exercise your right to object at any time by contacting the respective controller.
(9) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
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. This does not apply if the decision:
- is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller,
- is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and that law provides for appropriate measures to safeguard the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or
- with the express consent of the person concerned.
The controller shall take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view, and to contest the decision.
The data subject may exercise this right at any time by contacting the respective controller.
(10) Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement, if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to him or her infringes this Regulation, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
(11) Right to an effective judicial remedy
Without prejudice to any available administrative or non-judicial remedy, including the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority pursuant toArticle 77of the GDPR, you have the right to an effective judicial remedy if you consider that your rights under this Regulation have been infringed as a result of the processing of your personal data in a manner that does not comply with this Regulation.
