Extent of Personal Data Processing
In general, we process personal data of our users exclusively for providing a functional website as well as our contents and services to an extent which is necessary.
The processing of personal data of our users is performed regularly only after the user´s consent. Exempt from this are such cases, where a prior obtainment of consent is not possible for factual reasons and the data processing is authorized by statutory provisions.
Legal Basis for Personal Data Processing
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing procedures of personal data, art. 6, para. 1 lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as a legal basis.
When personal data is being processed, which is necessary for the performance of a contract, whose contracting party is the data subject, art. 6, para. 1 lit. b EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as a legal basis. This also applies for processing procedures which are necessary for implementing measures prior to entering into a contract.
Insofar as a processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfillment of a legal obligation, which our company is subject to, art. 6, para. 1 lit. c EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as a legal basis.
In case vital interests of the data subject or of a different natural person require a processing of personal data, art. 6, para. 1 lit. d EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as a legal basis.
If the processing is necessary for the protection of a legitimate interest of our company or of a third party, and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail over the former interest, art. 6, para. 1 lit. f EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as a legal basis for the processing.
Erasure of Data and Retention Period
The personal data of the data subject are erased or blocked as soon as the purpose of the retention falls away. A retention beyond this can be done, in case this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in directions of Union law, regulations or other legal rules the controller is subject to. Furthermore, a blocking or an erasure of the data is also performed if a retention period prescribed by the named norms runs out, unless there is a necessity for a further retention of the data for the purpose of contract conclusion or execution of a contract.
