Data protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet, for example when communicating by email, can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

The controller for data processing on this website is:

Represented by: Bastian Hollmann

The controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of processing personal data.

Storage period

Unless a more specific storage period is stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing it no longer applies.

If you assert a justified request for deletion or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless there are other legally permissible reasons for storing it, for example retention periods under tax or commercial law. In that case, deletion takes place once those reasons no longer apply.

General information on the legal bases for data processing

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, where special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed.

If your data is required to perform a contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures, processing takes place on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Where processing is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation, it takes place on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Processing may also take place on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The relevant legal bases are set out in the following sections.

Recipients of personal data

As part of our business activities, we work with various external parties. This may require the transfer of personal data to external parties.

We only pass on personal data where this is necessary to perform a contract, where we are legally obliged to do so, where there is a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or where another legal basis permits the transfer. When using processors, personal data is only passed on on the basis of a corresponding data processing agreement.

Withdrawal of your consent

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can withdraw consent you have already given at any time with effect for the future. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected.

Right to object pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR

IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION.

IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS THE PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL CLAIMS.

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO PROCESSING FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING.

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. This applies in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, their place of work or the place of the alleged breach.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract in a common, machine-readable format, or – where technically feasible – to have it transferred to another controller.

Information, correction and deletion

Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing. You may also have a right to the correction or deletion of this data.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data, in particular if:

• you dispute the accuracy of the personal data stored by us,
• the processing is unlawful and you request restriction instead of deletion,
• we no longer need the personal data but you need it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims,
• you have objected pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR and the balancing of interests has not yet been completed.

Objection to advertising emails

We hereby object to the use of contact data published as part of the imprint obligation for sending advertising and information material that has not been expressly requested. The operators of this website reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, for example through spam emails.

4. Data collection on this website

Contact by email or phone

If you contact us by email or phone, your enquiry including the resulting personal data will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request.

Processing takes place on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your enquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of enquiries addressed to us pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR or – where corresponding consent has been obtained – on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

The data you send us will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, withdraw consent you have given, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Mandatory statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

The details are transmitted to us by email. With the current technical setup, no additional storage in a database on the web server takes place.

Processing takes place pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where the enquiry is related to the initiation or performance of a contract. Otherwise, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of enquiries pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR or, where consent is obtained, on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
