3            General information on data processing

3.1           Scope of processing personal data

We process personal data of our users only insofar as this is necessary to provide a functioning website with our content and services. The regular processing of personal data only takes place with the consent of the user. Exceptions include cases where prior consent technically cannot be obtained and where the processing of the data is permitted by law.

3.2           Legal basis for data processing

Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR serves as the legal basis to obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of their data.
As for the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract of which the data subject is party, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual activities.
When it is necessary to process personal data in order to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) (d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If the processing of data is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or that of a third party, and the fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the interest of the former, Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR will serve as the legal basis for the processing of data.

3.3           Data removal and duration of storage

The personal data of the data subject will be erased or restricted as soon as the purpose of its storage has been accomplished. Additional storage may occur if it was provided for by the European or national legislator within the EU regulations, law, or other relevant regulations to which the data controller is subject. Restriction or erasure of the data also takes place when the storage period stipulated by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need to prolong the storage of the data for the purpose of concluding or fulfilling the respective contract.

4            Rights of the data subject

When your personal data is processed, you are subsequently a data subject in the sense of the GDPR and have the following rights:

4.1           Right to information

You can request information in accordance with Art. 15 GDPR about your personal data that we process.

4.2           Right to objection

You have a right to object on specific grounds (see under point 4.8).

4.3           Right to rectification

If the information concerning you is not (or is no longer) accurate, you may request a correction in accordance with Art. 16 of the GDPR. If your data is incomplete, you can request that it be completed.

4.4           Right to deletion

You may request the deletion of your personal data in accordance with Art. 17 GDPR.

4.5           Right to restriction of processing

You have the right under Art. 18 GDPR to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.

4.6           Right to complain to a supervisory authority

If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates data protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority of your choice in accordance with Art. 77 (1) GDPR. This includes the data protection supervisory authority responsible for the controller: https://www.ldi.nrw.de/kontakt/ihre-beschwerde.

4.7           Right to data portability

In case the requirements of Art. 20 (1) GDPR are met, you have the right to be handed over data, which we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract, to yourself or to third parties. The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of log files are mandatory for the operation of the website. They are therefore not based on consent according to Art. 6 (1) (1) (a) GDPR or on a contract according to Art. 6 (1) (1) (b) GDPR but are justified according to Art. 6 (1) (1) (f) GDPR. The requirements of Art. 20 (1) GDPR are therefore not fulfilled.

4.8           Right of objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR on grounds relating to your specific situation. The controller shall then no longer process the personal data unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests and rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of log files are mandatory for the operation of the website.

5            Provision of website and creation of logfiles

5.1           Description and scope of data processing

Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and relevant information from the computer system of the calling device. The following data is collected:

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary for the delivery of the website to the computer of the user. For this purpose, the user’s IP address must be kept for the duration of the session.
The storage in logfiles is done to ensure the functionality of the website. The data is also used to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our IT systems. An analysis of the data for marketing purposes does not take place.

If the data is stored in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond this is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or alienated so that an assignment of the calling client is not possible.

5.5           Objection and removal
