What rights do you have regarding your data?

Every data subject has the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain information from the controller at any time, free of charge, about the data stored about him or her and a copy of this information. In addition, European directives and regulations grant the data subject access to the following information:

  1. the purposes of the processing;
  2. the categories of personal data concerned;
  3. the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organisations;
  4. if possible, the envisaged period for which the personal data will be stored or, if this is not possible, the criteria used to determine that period;
  5. the existence of the right to obtain from the controller the rectification or erasure of personal data or the restriction of the processing of personal data concerning the data subject or to object to such processing;
  6. the existence of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
  7. in the event that the personal data has not been collected from the data subject, all available information on the origin of the data;
  8. the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, in accordance with Article 22(1) and (4) of the GDPR and, at least in these cases, meaningful information about the underlying logic, as well as about the significance and likely consequences of such processing for the data subject.

Furthermore, the data subject has the right to obtain information as to whether personal data is being transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. If this is the case, the data subject has the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards in relation to the transfer. If a data subject wishes to make use of this right of access, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time.

Right to rectification

Every data subject has the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain from the controller without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him/her. The data subject has the right, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to request the completion of incomplete personal data, including by means of a supplementary statement. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of rectification, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time.

Right to erasure (right to be forgotten)

Every data subject has the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning him or her without undue delay, and the controller is obliged to erase the personal data without undue delay, provided that one of the following grounds applies and the processing is not necessary:

  1. The personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
  2. The data subject withdraws his or her consent on which the processing is based pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR and there is no other legal ground for the processing.
  3. The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the GDPR.
  4. The personal data has been unlawfully processed.
  5. The personal data must be erased in order to comply with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.
  6. The personal data has been collected in connection with the provision of information society services pursuant to Article 8(1) of the GDPR.
  7. If one of the above reasons applies and a data subject wishes to request the deletion of personal data stored by us, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time. An employee will arrange for the deletion request to be complied with immediately.
  8. Where the controller has made personal data public and is required to erase such data in accordance with Article 17(1), it shall, taking into account the available technology and the costs of implementation, take appropriate measures, including technical measures, to inform other data controllers who process the personal data that the data subject has been informed by those other data controllers. Controller has requested the deletion of all links to such personal data or of copies or replications of such data, to the extent that the processing is not necessary. The employee will arrange for the necessary measures to be taken on a case-by-case basis.

Right to restriction of processing

Every data subject has the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain from the controller the restriction of processing if one of the following cases applies:

  1. The accuracy of the personal data is disputed by the data subject, for a period of time that allows the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data. The processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests the restriction of their use instead. The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but the data subject needs them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. The data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR pending the verification of whether the legitimate grounds of the controller outweigh those of the data subject. If one of the above conditions is met and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by us, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time. Our employee will arrange for the restriction of processing. Right to data portability:
    1. Every data subject has the right, granted by the European legislator, to receive personal data concerning him or her, which has been provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. It has the right to transmit such data to another controller, without the controller to whom the personal data have been provided being prevented from doing so, provided that the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation or Article 9(2)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation, or is based on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR and the processing is carried out by automated means, provided that the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
    2. In addition, when exercising his/her right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) of the GDPR, the data subject has the right to transfer personal data directly from one controller to another, provided that this is technically feasible and does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of other persons.
    3. To exercise the right to data portability, the data subject may contact one of our employees at any time.

Right to object

Every data subject has the right, granted by the European legislator, to object, at any time, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning him or her which is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. In the event of an objection, we will no longer process the personal data, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. If we process personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning him or her for the purpose of such advertising. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to us processing for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process the personal data for these purposes. In addition, the data subject has the right to object, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning him or her which is carried out by us for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.

To exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact any employee of our company. In addition, in the context of the use of information society services and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, the data subject shall be free to exercise his or her right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

Automated individual decision-making, including profiling:

Every data subject has the right, granted by the European legislator, not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him/her, as long as the decision (1) is not necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) does not is permitted by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or is necessary for the performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) not by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, which provides for appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subjects. or (3) is not based on the explicit consent of the data subject. If the decision (1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) it is made with the data subject’s explicit consent, we shall take reasonable measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the controller, to express one’s own point of view and to challenge the decision.

If the data subject wishes to assert rights with regard to automated individual decisions, he or she can contact one of our employees at any time.

Right to revoke consent under data protection law

Every data subject has the right, granted by the European legislator, to withdraw their consent to the processing of their personal data at any time.

The operators of these sites take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this data protection declaration.
When you use this website, various personal data is collected.
Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
We would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may have security gaps. It is not possible to completely protect the data from access by third parties.

Note on the responsible body

The person responsible for data processing on this website is:

The responsible party is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, decides on the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, e-mail addresses, etc.).

Storage period

Unless a more specific storage period is specified in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for which the data processing ceases to apply. If you make a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent to data processing, your data will be deleted, unless we have other legally permissible grounds for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the deletion will take place after these reasons have ceased to exist.

Note on data transfer to the USA

Among other things, tools from companies based in the USA are integrated into our website. When these tools are active, your personal information may be shared with the respective companies’ U.S. servers. We would like to point out that the USA is not a safe third country within the meaning of EU data protection law. U.S. companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities without you, as the data subject, being able to take legal action against this.
Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that U.S. authorities (e.g. intelligence agencies) process, evaluate and permanently store your data on U.S. servers for surveillance purposes. We have no control over these processing activities.

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to object to the collection of data in special cases as well as to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
