2. Scope of processing of personal data

 

In principle, we process your personal data only if it is required for us to provide a fully functioning website as well as for our content and services. Your personal data is processed regularly only after you have given your consent. An exception applies in cases where for practical reasons it is not possible to obtain consent and the processing of data is permitted by the statutory regulations.

 

3. Legal basis for processing personal data

 

If we ask a data subject for consent to use their personal data for processing operations, point (a) of Article 6(1) EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.

 

When it is required that we process personal data that is required to perform a contract with the data subject, point (b) of Article 6(1) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are required to carry out pre-contractual measures.

 

If we are required to process personal data to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, point (c) of Article 6(1) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

 

In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, point (d) of Article 6(1) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

 

If processing is required to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third-party, and the interests, constitutional rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-named interest, point (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

 

4. Data erasure and duration of storage

 

The personal data of the data subject is erased or blocked as soon there is no longer a purpose for storage. Storage can continue beyond this time if this is provided for in directives, laws or other regulations to which the data controller is subject. Data is also blocked or erased if a prescribed retention period from the regulations mentioned has expired, unless there is a requirement for further retention of the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.
