Legal basis of the processing
If you have given us your consent to process your personal data for a specific purpose, the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 a GDPR. If such processing is necessary to fulfill a contract with you or to initiate such a contract, the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 b GDPR. In some cases, e.g. to fulfill tax obligations, we may be subject to a legal obligation to process personal data, the legal basis for this in such cases is Art. 6 para. 1 c GDPR. In rare cases, processing may also take place in order to protect the vital interests of you or another natural person. In this exceptional case, processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 d GDPR. Finally, processing may also be based on Art. 6 para. 1 f GDPR. This is the case if the processing is carried out to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that your interests, fundamental rights and freedoms do not prevail. Such a legitimate interest can already be assumed if you are a customer of ours. If the processing of personal data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 f GDPR, our legitimate interest is the performance of our business activities.
Provision of personal data
In some cases, the provision of personal data is required by law or contract. For this reason, it may be necessary for you to provide us with personal data that must be processed by us in order to conclude a contract, for example. For example, you are obliged to provide personal data in order to conclude a contract. Failure to do so would mean that the contract cannot be concluded.
You can contact our data protection officer before providing personal data. They will explain to you whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract in individual cases and what the consequences of not providing this data would be.
Security
As the controller, we have taken technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from loss, destruction, manipulation and unauthorized access. All our employees and all persons involved in data processing are obliged to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation and other data protection laws and to handle personal data confidentially.
When personal data is collected and processed, the information is transmitted in encrypted form to prevent misuse of the data by third parties. Our security measures are continuously revised in line with technological developments.
Nevertheless, internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, meaning that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed.
Changes to our privacy policy
We reserve the right to change our security and data protection measures if this becomes necessary due to technical developments. In such cases, we will also adapt our data protection information accordingly. Please therefore note the current version of our data protection declaration.
