Unless otherwise specified, the provision of all data requested by this website is mandatory.

Nature and place of data processing
Processing methods
The provider processes the personal data of users in a proper manner and takes appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access and the unauthorized forwarding, modification or destruction of data.
Data processing is carried out using computers or IT-based systems in accordance with organizational procedures and practices that are specific to the purposes indicated. In addition to the Data Controller, other parties may operate this website and therefore have access to the data, either internally (personnel management, sales, marketing, legal department, system administrators) or externally (such as providers of technical services, delivery companies, hosting providers, IT companies or communication agencies), and in this case, if necessary, appointed by the Data Controller as Data Processors. A current list of these parties can be requested from the provider at any time.
Place
The data is processed at the provider’s branch and at all other locations where the entities involved in the data processing are located.
Depending on the location of the users, data transfers may involve the transfer of the user’s data to a country other than their own. To find out more about the place of processing of the transferred data, users can consult the section with detailed information on the processing of personal data.
Storage duration
Unless otherwise specified in this document, Personal Data will be processed and stored for as long as required by the purpose for which it was collected and may be stored for a longer period of time if necessary due to a legal obligation to be fulfilled or based on the User’s consent.
Purposes of processing
Personal data about the user is collected so that the provider can provide the service and also comply with its legal obligations, respond to enforcement requests, protect its rights and interests (or those of users or third parties), detect malicious or fraudulent activity. In addition, data is collected for the following purposes: Analytics, tag management, displaying content from external platforms and managing productivity operations.
Users can find more detailed information on these processing purposes and the Personal Data used for each purpose in the “Detailed information on the processing of Personal Data” section of this document.

Additional information for users
Legal basis for processing
The provider may only process users’ personal data if one of the following applies:
- Users have given their consent for one or more specific purposes.
- the collection of data is necessary for the performance of a contract with the user and/or for pre-contractual measures arising therefrom
- the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the provider is subject
- the processing is related to a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the provider
- the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the provider or by a third party.
In any case, the provider will be happy to provide information about the specific legal basis on which the processing is based, in particular whether the provision of personal data is a legal or contractual obligation or a prerequisite for the conclusion of a contract.
Further information on storage duration
Unless otherwise specified in this document, Personal Data will be processed and stored for as long as required by the purpose for which it was collected and may be retained for longer periods if necessary to comply with a legal obligation or based on the User’s consent.
The following therefore applies:
- Personal data collected for the purposes of fulfilling a contract concluded between the provider and the user will be stored until this contract has been completely fulfilled.
- Personal data collected to protect the legitimate interests of the provider will be retained for as long as necessary to fulfill these purposes. Users can obtain more information about the legitimate interests of the Owner in the relevant sections of this document or by contacting the Owner.
Furthermore, the provider is permitted to store personal data for a longer period of time if the user has consented to such processing, as long as the consent is not revoked. Furthermore, the provider may be obliged to store personal data for a longer period of time if this is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation or by order of an authority.
After the retention period has expired, personal data will be deleted. Therefore, the right of access, the right to erasure, the right to rectification and the right to data portability cannot be asserted after the retention period has expired.
The rights of users under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
Users may exercise certain rights in relation to their data processed by the Provider. In particular, users have the right to do the following to the extent permitted by law:
- Withdraw consent at any time. If the user has previously consented to the processing of personal data, they may withdraw their consent at any time.
- Object to the processing of their data. The user has the right to object to the processing of their data if the processing is carried out on a legal basis other than consent.
- Receive information about their data. The user has the right to know whether the data is being processed by the provider, to receive information about individual aspects of the processing and to receive a copy of the data.
- Verification and rectification. The user has the right to check the accuracy of their data and to request that it be updated or corrected.
- Request restriction of the processing of their data. Users have the right to restrict the processing of their data. In this case, the provider will not process the data for any purpose other than storage.
- Request erasure or other removal of personal data. Users have the right to request the provider to delete their data.
- Receive their data and have it transferred to another controller. Users have the right to receive their data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and, where technically feasible, to have it transmitted to another controller without hindrance.
- Lodge a complaint. Users have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
Users also have the right to obtain information about the legal basis for the transfer of data abroad or to an international organization governed by public international law or established by two or more countries, such as the UN, and about the security measures taken by the provider to protect their data.
Details of the right to object to processing
If personal data are processed in the public interest, in the exercise of an official authority vested in the provider or to protect the legitimate interests of the provider, the user may object to this processing by providing a justification relating to his or her particular situation.
Users are informed that they can object to the processing of their personal data for direct marketing purposes at any time free of charge and without giving reasons. If the user objects to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes. Users can find out whether the provider processes personal data for direct marketing purposes in the relevant sections of this document.
How the rights can be exercised
All requests to exercise user rights may be addressed to the Owner using the contact details provided in this document. These requests can be made free of charge and will be answered by the Owner as soon as possible, at the latest within one month, providing Users with the information required by law. Any rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing shall be communicated by the Provider to all recipients to whom personal data have been disclosed, if any.
