We generally only process personal data of our users if this is necessary for the provision of a functioning website, and our content and services. As a rule, the processing of personal data of our users will only take place with the consent of the user. An exception applies in such cases in which the prior obtainment of consent is not possible for practical reasons, and the processing of data is permitted by statutory provisions.
If we obtain consent from the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as a legal basis.
Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as a legal basis for the processing of personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract of which the data subject is a contractual party. This also applies for processing contracts that are necessary for the implementation of precontractual measures.
If the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation that our company is subject to, Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR serves as a legal basis.
In the case that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make the processing of personal data necessary, Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR will serve as a legal basis.
If the processing is necessary for the safeguarding of a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR will serve as a legal basis for the processing.
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage ceases to apply. A storage can also take place if this is provided by the European or national legislators in Union law regulations, laws or other provisions to which the Controller is subject. A blocking or deletion of data will take place when a retention period provided by the named standards expires, unless the necessity of later storage of the data exists for the conclusion or performance of a contract.
Whenever our website is accessed, our system will log automated data and information about the computing system of the accessing computer.
The following data is hereby collected:
The data will also be stored in the log files in our system. This data will not be stored with other personal data of the user.
The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data and the log files is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the supply of website to the computer of the user. For this purpose, the IP address of the user must be stored for the duration of the session. The storage in log files takes place in order to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data enables us to optimise the website and ensure the security of our information systems. An analysis of the data for marketing purposes in this context does not take place. Our legitimate interest in data processing is also part of these purposes in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose of its collection. In cases of data collection for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session is finished. In the case of the storage of data in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond this time period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or distorted, so that a matching of the accessing client is no longer possible.
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is vital for the operation of the website. There is no possibility of objection for the user.
