Overview and Explanation of the Legal Bases

In the following, we inform you about the legal bases under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) on which we process personal data. In addition to the provisions of the GDPR, national regulations of the country of residence or establishment of the respective users may apply.

  1. Legitimate Interests (Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR): Processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, unless such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require the protection of personal data.
  2. Performance of a Contract and Pre-Contractual Requests (Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. b GDPR): Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take pre-contractual measures at the request of the data subject.
  3. Legal Obligation (Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. c GDPR): Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject.
  4. Protection of Vital Interests (Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. d GDPR): Processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person.
  5. Application Procedure as a Pre-Contractual or Contractual Relationship (Art. 9(1) sentence 1 lit. b GDPR): Insofar as special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9(1) GDPR — e.g. health data, such as severe disability status, or ethnic origin — are requested from applicants as part of the application procedure so that the controller or the data subject may exercise the rights arising from employment law and social security and social protection law and comply with the corresponding obligations, such data is processed pursuant to Art. 9(2) lit. b GDPR; in the case of the protection of vital interests of applicants or other persons, pursuant to Art. 9(2) lit. c GDPR; or for the purposes of preventive or occupational medicine, for the assessment of the employee’s working capacity, medical diagnosis, the provision of health or social care or treatment, or the management of health or social care systems and services pursuant to Art. 9(2) lit. h GDPR. In the event that special categories of data are communicated on the basis of voluntary consent, such data is processed on the basis of Art. 9(2) lit. a GDPR.
  6. Data Processing for Purposes of the Employment Relationship (§ 26 BDSG): Within the employment relationship, we process special categories and other types of personal data on the basis of the statutory provision for the purposes of establishing, performing, and terminating the employment relationship.
  7. Consent, Where Requested (Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR): The data subject has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one specific purpose or for several specific purposes.
  8. Processing for the Performance of a Task Carried Out in the Public Interest (Art. 6(1) lit. e GDPR): Insofar as processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
  9. Storage of Information in the End User’s Terminal Equipment with the End User’s Consent (§ 25(1) sentence 1 TDDDG): We use storage areas of our users’ terminal equipment for certain functions with their express and informed consent.
  10. Storage of Information in the End User’s Terminal Equipment Due to Necessity (§ 25(2) No. 2 TDDDG): Insofar as we have not asked you for permission when visiting our website or using individual functions, we use the storage of your terminal device for the technical presentation and delivery of our telemedia service where this is strictly technically necessary.

Security Measures

In accordance with the statutory requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs, and the nature, scope, context, and purposes of processing, as well as the varying likelihood and severity of the risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, we implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, Art. 32 GDPR.

The security measures we have implemented include, in particular, the following.

  • Secure Sockets Layer | Transport Layer Security (SSL): We use SSL / TLS for the encrypted transmission of data between our visitors’ terminal devices and our server. In this way, the risk of unauthorised access to the transmitted data is significantly reduced.

Transfer and Disclosure of Personal Data to Third Parties

In the course of our processing of personal data, data may be transferred to, or disclosed to, other bodies, companies, legally independent organisational units, or persons. The recipients of such data may include, in particular:

  • IT Service Providers: This includes service providers for the provision of hosting, email services, and server technology.
  • Payment Service Providers: Service providers that cooperate with us in order to process payments.
  • Shipping Service Providers: Service providers that perform logistical tasks for us. This includes, in particular, parcel delivery service providers.
  • Authorities: Government bodies with which we exchange data for the fulfilment of orders or for legal reasons.

In such a case, we ensure the protection of personal data by concluding contracts or agreements with the respective third parties that serve to provide adequate protection of the data. We select third parties to whom we disclose data carefully and conscientiously.

Insofar as we use third-party providers or platforms to provide our services, the terms and conditions and privacy notices of the respective third-party providers or platforms shall apply in the relationship between the users and those providers.

Data Processing in Third Countries

Insofar as we process data in a third country, i.e. a country outside the European Union or the European Economic Area, or processing is carried out by third parties outside this area, such processing is carried out only in accordance with the applicable statutory provisions.

Subject to the express consent of the data subjects or transfers required by law, we process data, or have data processed, only in third countries that provide an adequate level of protection. This includes, in particular, countries in which processing is carried out on the basis of special safeguards, such as contractual obligations through the so-called Standard Contractual Clauses of the European Commission, the existence of certifications, or binding internal data protection rules (Art. 44 to 49 GDPR)..

General Notice on the Deletion of Data

The data processed by us will be deleted in accordance with the statutory requirements as soon as the consent to its processing has been withdrawn or other permissions — for example legitimate interests, legal obligations, etc. — no longer apply.

If the data is not deleted because it is required for other legally permissible purposes, its processing will be restricted to those purposes. This means that the data will be blocked and will not be processed for other purposes.

This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for reasons under commercial or tax law, or whose storage is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person.

 

Further information on the deletion of personal data may be provided, where applicable, under the individual sections of this Privacy Policy.

External Platforms

Social Media

In order to communicate effectively with our existing and potential customers as well as other interested persons, and to provide them with an accessible point of contact and information, we maintain presences on certain social media platforms.

We point out that, when using social media, data may be processed outside the European Union, which may entail risks for users with regard to the enforcement of their rights.

Social media platforms regularly analyse the behaviour of their users for marketing purposes. In doing so, they create extensive profiles of their users’ interests and usage behaviour in order to display personalised advertising to them. Through the setting of cookies and integration on third-party websites, information may also be collected that goes beyond the direct use of the social network.

In particular, information about the terminal device used, the internet connection (IP address), and, where applicable, the user’s location may also be collected.

We point out that only the providers of these networks have access to the data collected about the user; accordingly, requests for information are most effectively addressed directly to those providers.

Details and further data protection information regarding the social networks used can be found below.

X (ex Twitter)

We operate an account on the social network X. On our website, we only integrate X in the form of a link. No data processing takes place when our website is accessed.

We point out that you use the X short messaging service offered here and its functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of interactive functions, such as sharing or rating.

Information on which data is processed by Twitter and for what purposes it is used can be found in Twitter’s Privacy Policy:
https://x.com/de/privacy

The information collected by this provider’s cookies is generally transmitted to a server in the USA and stored there. In the event of data being transferred to the USA, the data transfer is based on the existence of Standard Contractual Clauses.

We have no influence over the type and scope of the data processed by X, the manner of processing and use, or the transfer of such data to third parties. In this respect, we also have no effective means of control.

By using X, your personal data is collected, transferred, stored, disclosed, and used by X and, regardless of your place of residence, transferred to, stored, and used in the United States, Ireland, and any other country in which X conducts business.

On the one hand, X processes data voluntarily provided by you, such as your name and username, email address, telephone number, or the contacts from your address book if you upload or synchronise it.

On the other hand, X also evaluates the content shared by you to determine which topics you are interested in, stores and processes confidential messages that you send directly to other users, and may determine your location based on GPS data, information about wireless networks, or your IP address in order to provide you with advertising or other content.

In addition, X collects and evaluates further log data about your visits.

Further information on data collection, data processing, and the options for restricting these processes can be found via the following resources:

https://help.x.com/de/safety-and-security/x-privacy-settings
https://help.X.com/de/forms/fragments/privacy-helpful-articles
https://support.X.com/articles/20172711
https://X.com/settings/your_twitter_data
https://X.com/personalization

We ourselves do not collect any data about your X account or visits to our X profile. However, the data you enter on X, in particular your username and the content published under your account, is processed by us insofar as we may repost your tweets, reply to them, or compose tweets ourselves that refer to your account. The data freely published and distributed by you on X is thereby included by us in our offering and made accessible to our followers.

Facebook

We operate a presence on the social network Facebook. On our website, we merely provide a link to this presence. Data processing by Facebook only takes place when you click on the link.

We point out that you use this Facebook page and its functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of interactive functions, such as commenting, sharing, or rating. Alternatively, you may also access the information offered via this page on our website.

When you visit our Facebook page, Facebook collects, among other things, your IP address and further information that is stored on your PC in the form of cookies. This information is used to provide us, as the operator of the Facebook page, with statistical information about the use of the Facebook page. Facebook provides further information on this at the following URL:
http://de-de.facebook.com/help/pages/insights

The data collected about you in this context is processed by Facebook Ltd. and may, where applicable, be transferred to countries outside the European Union. Facebook describes in general terms what information it receives and how it is used in its Data Use Policy. There you will also find information on how to contact Facebook and on the settings options for advertisements. The Data Use Policy is available at the following URL:
http://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy

Facebook’s full Data Policy can be found here:
https://de-de.facebook.com/full_data_use_policy

The data collected about you in this context is processed by Facebook Ltd. and may, where applicable, be transferred to countries outside the European Union.

If you visit one of our presences on social media, such as Facebook, such a visit triggers the processing of your personal data.

In this case, we are jointly responsible with the operator of the respective social network for the data processing operations within the meaning of Art. 26 GDPR, provided that we actually make a joint decision with the operator of the social network regarding the data processing and also have an influence on the data processing.

Where possible, we have concluded joint controllership agreements with the operators of the social networks pursuant to Art. 26 GDPR, in particular Facebook Ireland Ltd.’s so-called “Page Controller Addendum”.

You may generally exercise your rights, namely the right of access pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR, the right to rectification pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR, the right to erasure pursuant to Art. 17 GDPR, the right to restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR, the right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR, and the right to lodge a complaint pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR, both against us and against the operator of the respective social network, such as Facebook.

Please note that, despite our joint responsibility pursuant to Art. 26 GDPR with the operators of social networks, we do not have full influence over the data processing carried out by the individual social networks. The corporate policy of the respective provider has a significant influence on our options.

In the event that data subject rights are exercised, we may only be able to forward such requests to the operator of the social network.

The manner in which Facebook uses the data obtained from visits to Facebook pages for its own purposes, the extent to which activities on the Facebook page are assigned to individual users, how long Facebook stores this data, and whether data from a visit to the Facebook page is disclosed to third parties are not conclusively and clearly stated by Facebook and are not known to us.

When accessing a Facebook page, the IP address assigned to your terminal device is transmitted to Facebook. According to Facebook, this IP address is anonymised in the case of “German” IP addresses and deleted after 90 days. Facebook also stores information about its users’ terminal devices, for example within the scope of the “login notification” function; where applicable, Facebook may therefore be able to assign IP addresses to individual users.

If you, as a user, are currently logged in to Facebook, a cookie containing your Facebook identifier is stored on your terminal device. This may enable Facebook to trace that you have visited this page and how you used it, for example by means of a referrer header.

If you wish to prevent Facebook from drawing such conclusions or from associating your visit to our Facebook presence with your profile, you may, for example, use a private browser window, as no cookies are preset in such a window.

As the provider of the information service, we do not collect or otherwise process any data from your use of our service beyond this. This Privacy Policy can be found in its current version under the “Data Policy” section on our Facebook page.
