Applicable Legal Bases
Applicable legal bases under the GDPR: The following provides an overview of the legal bases of the GDPR on which we process personal data. Please note that in addition to the provisions of the GDPR, national data protection regulations may apply in your or our country of residence or registered office. Should more specific legal bases apply in individual cases, we will inform you of these in the privacy policy.
- Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) – The data subject has given consent to the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purposes.
- Performance of a contract and pre-contractual enquiries (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) – Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract.
- Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) – Processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data.
National data protection regulations in Germany: In addition to the data protection regulations of the GDPR, national data protection regulations apply in Germany, in particular the Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz – BDSG). The BDSG contains in particular special provisions on the right of access, the right to erasure, the right to object, the processing of special categories of personal data, processing for other purposes and transmission as well as automated individual decision-making including profiling.
Security Measures
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures in accordance with the legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, in order to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk.
The measures include in particular safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data as well as access to, input of, disclosure of, ensuring availability of and segregation of the data. We also have procedures in place to ensure the exercise of data subject rights, deletion of data and responses to data threats. Furthermore, we already take the protection of personal data into account during the development or selection of hardware, software and processes, in accordance with the principle of data protection by design and by privacy-friendly default settings.
TLS/HTTPS encryption: All data transferred between your device and our servers is encrypted. Passwords are stored exclusively in hashed form. Security-sensitive actions are protected against automated attacks and cross-site request forgery (CSRF).
Transfer of Personal Data
In the course of our processing of personal data, this may be transferred to or disclosed to other bodies, companies, legally independent organisational units or persons. The recipients of this data may include, for example, service providers commissioned with IT tasks or providers of services and content that are integrated into a website. In such cases we observe the legal requirements and in particular conclude corresponding contracts or agreements with the recipients of your data that serve to protect your data.
International Data Transfers
Data processing in third countries: If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or this occurs in the context of using third-party services or disclosing or transferring data to other persons, bodies or companies, this is only done in accordance with the legal requirements. If the level of data protection in the third country has been recognised by means of an adequacy decision (Art. 45 GDPR), this serves as the basis for data transfer. Otherwise, data transfers only take place if the level of data protection is otherwise ensured, in particular through standard contractual clauses (Art. 46(2)(c) GDPR), explicit consent or in the case of contractual or legally required transfer (Art. 49(1) GDPR).
General Information on Data Storage and Deletion
We delete personal data that we process in accordance with the statutory provisions as soon as the underlying consents are revoked or no further legal bases for the processing exist. This applies to cases where the original purpose of processing no longer applies or the data is no longer needed. Exceptions to this rule exist if statutory obligations or special interests require a longer retention or archiving of the data.
In particular, data that must be retained for commercial or tax law reasons or whose storage is necessary for legal prosecution or to protect the rights of other natural or legal persons must be archived accordingly.
If the longest applicable retention period expires, the data is deleted. If data needs to be retained for other purposes, it is only processed for those justified purposes. Where multiple retention or deletion periods apply to a piece of data, the longest period is always decisive.
General retention periods under German law:
- 10 years – books and records, annual financial statements, inventories, management reports, opening balance sheets, working instructions and other organisational documents, accounting records and invoices (§ 147(3) in conjunction with § 147(1) No. 1, 4 and 4a AO, § 14b(1) UStG, § 257(1) No. 1 and 4, (4) HGB).
- 6 years – other business documents: received commercial or business letters, reproductions of sent commercial or business letters, other documents insofar as they are of significance for taxation (§ 147(3) in conjunction with § 147(1) No. 2, 3, 5 AO, § 257(1) No. 2 and 3, (4) HGB).
- 3 years – data required to take into account potential warranty and compensation claims or similar contractual claims and rights, based on previous business experience and industry practices, stored for the duration of the regular statutory limitation period of three years (§§ 195, 199 BGB).
Rights of Data Subjects
Rights of data subjects under the GDPR: As a data subject, you have various rights under the GDPR, which arise in particular from Articles 15 to 21 GDPR:
- Right to object: You have the right, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to object to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on those provisions. Where personal data concerning you is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
- Right to withdraw consent: You have the right to withdraw consent at any time.
- Right of access: You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning you is being processed, and, where that is the case, access to the personal data and information in accordance with the legal requirements.
- Right to rectification: In accordance with the legal requirements, you have the right to request the completion of data concerning you or the rectification of inaccurate data concerning you.
- Right to erasure and restriction of processing: In accordance with the legal requirements, you have the right to request that data concerning you be erased without undue delay, or alternatively, in accordance with the legal requirements, to request restriction of processing of the data.
- Right to data portability: You have the right to receive data concerning you that you have provided to us, in accordance with the legal requirements, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format or to request its transmission to another controller.
- Complaint to supervisory authority: Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you 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 you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the provisions of the GDPR.
Provision of the Online Service and Web Hosting
We process users' data in order to be able to provide them with our online services. For this purpose, we process the user's IP address, which is necessary to transmit the contents and functions of our online services to the user's browser or terminal device.
- Types of data processed: Usage data (e.g. page views and dwell time, click paths, usage intensity and frequency, types of devices and operating systems used, interactions with content and functions); meta, communication and procedural data (e.g. IP addresses, time stamps, identification numbers, persons involved); log data (e.g. log files relating to logins or the retrieval of data or access times).
- Data subjects: Users (e.g. website visitors, users of online services).
- Purposes of processing: Provision of our online service and user experience; information technology infrastructure; security measures.
- Retention and deletion: Deletion in accordance with the information in the section "General Information on Data Storage and Deletion".
- Legal bases: Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Collection of access data and log files: Access to our online service is logged in the form of so-called "server log files". Server log files may include the address and name of the web pages and files accessed, the date and time of access, the volumes of data transferred, notification of successful access, the browser type and version, the user's operating system, the referrer URL (the previously visited page) and, as a rule, IP addresses and the requesting provider. Server log files may be used, on the one hand, for security purposes, e.g. to avoid overloading the servers (particularly in the case of abusive attacks, so-called DDoS attacks), and on the other hand to ensure the utilisation of the servers and their stability. Legal bases: Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Deletion of data: Log file information is stored for a maximum of 30 days and then deleted or anonymised. Data whose further storage is necessary for evidentiary purposes is excluded from deletion until the final clarification of the incident in question.
Use of Cookies
Cookies are small text files or other storage notes that store information on end devices and read it from them. For example, to save the log-in status in a user account, the contents of a shopping basket in an e-shop, the content accessed or the functions used of an online offer. Cookies can also be used for various purposes, e.g. for the purposes of functionality, security and convenience of online offers and the creation of analyses of visitor flows.
Notes on consent: We use cookies in accordance with the statutory provisions. We therefore obtain prior consent from users, unless this is not required by law. In particular, consent is not required if the storage and reading of information, including cookies, is strictly necessary in order to provide the users with a telemedia service that they have expressly requested (i.e. our online service).
Notes on data protection legal bases: The data protection legal basis on which we process users' personal data using cookies depends on whether we ask users for consent. If users consent, the legal basis for processing their data is the declared consent. Otherwise, the data processed using cookies is processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. in the economical operation of our online service and improving its usability) or, if the use of cookies is necessary for fulfilling our contractual obligations.
Storage duration: With regard to the storage duration, the following types of cookies are distinguished:
- Temporary cookies (also: session cookies): Temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user has left an online service and closed their end device (e.g. browser or mobile application).
- Permanent cookies: Permanent cookies remain stored even after the end device is closed. For example, the log-in status can be saved and preferred content can be displayed directly when the user revisits a website.
- Types of data processed: Meta, communication and procedural data (e.g. IP addresses, time stamps, identification numbers, persons involved).
- Data subjects: Users (e.g. website visitors, users of online services).
- Legal bases: Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR); Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
Contact and Inquiry Management
When contacting us (e.g. by post, contact form, e-mail, telephone or via social media) and in the context of existing user and business relationships, the information provided by the enquiring persons is processed to the extent necessary to respond to the contact enquiries and any requested measures.
- Types of data processed: Inventory data; contact data; content data; usage data; meta, communication and procedural data.
- Data subjects: Communication partners.

Contact form: When contacting us via our contact form, by e-mail or other communication channels, we process the personal data transmitted to us for the purpose of answering and processing the respective request. This usually includes information such as name, contact information and, if applicable, further information provided to us that is necessary for appropriate processing. We use this data exclusively for the stated purpose of contact and communication. Legal bases: Performance of a contract and pre-contractual enquiries (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR), legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Social Media Presences
We maintain online presences within social networks and process user data in this context in order to communicate with the users active there or to offer information about us.
We would like to point out that user data may be processed outside the European Union. This may pose risks for users because, for example, it could make it more difficult to enforce users' rights. With regard to US providers certified under the Privacy Shield, we would like to point out that they thereby commit to complying with EU data protection standards.
