Legality

The processing must be based on a legal basis (law, ordinance, statutes, regulations or equivalent) or be carried out with the consent of the data subjects.

Principle of good faith

The data must be processed in good faith. The personal data may not be obtained if the person concerned is not aware of it or if this is done against their will.

Proportionality

The processing must be appropriate, ie be in reasonable proportion to the purpose and be limited to what is necessary to achieve the goal.

Purpose

Personal data may only be obtained for a specific purpose that is recognisable for the person concerned; they may only be processed in a way that is compatible with this purpose.

Recognisable procurement

The procurement of personal data and in particular the purpose of its processing must be recognisable for the person concerned; the purpose of the processing must be stated when the data is collected or it must be evident from the circumstances. Where necessary, consent to processing will be obtained. This must be done voluntarily (coupling ban) and expressly for each data processing operation. The consent can be revoked at any time as a whole or for individual purposes of data processing.

Accuracy and right to be forgotten

Personal data must be as complete and up-to-date as circumstances allow. The data subject can request that incorrect data be corrected. Personal data will be deactivated, made anonymous or destroyed as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose of processing.

Data security

The data protection officer and the processor ensure data security appropriate to the risk through suitable technical and organisational measures. It is ensured that the processing of personal data is only processed on the instructions of the person responsible.

Privacy by design and by default

The data protection officer is obliged to design the data processing technically and organisationally in such a way that the data protection regulations are complied with from the outset, even without special adjustments. This is taken into account from the planning stage.

  • Internet Service Provider (ISP);
  • Date and time stamp;
  • Referring/exit pages;
  • possibly the number of clicks.

This data is not merged with other data sources. These are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable. The basis for data processing is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR, which allows the processing of data to fulfil a contract or pre-contractual measures.

The purpose of the information is for analysing trends, administering the site, tracking users’ movement on the website, and gathering demographic information.

We do not pass this data on to third parties outside our company without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR) You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal message by e-mail to us is sufficient. The lawfulness of the data processing operations that took place up until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for data storage no longer applies. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

Processing of data (customer and contract data)

We collect, process and use personal data only insofar as they are necessary for the establishment, content or change of the legal relationship (inventory data). This is based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b GDPR, which permits the processing of data to fulfil a contract or to take steps prior to entering into a contract. We collect, process and use personal data about the use of our website (usage data) only to the extent necessary to enable the user to use the service.
