If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and, where special categories of data are processed, Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, processing is also based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR.

Processing may also take place on the basis of our legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Recipients of personal data

As part of our business activities, we cooperate with various external parties. In some cases, this requires the transfer of personal data to such parties. We only disclose personal data where this is necessary for contractual performance, where we are legally obliged to do so, where we have a legitimate interest in disclosure, or where another legal basis permits disclosure. Where processors are used, we only transfer personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement.

Withdrawal of your consent

Many data processing operations are possible only with your express consent. You may revoke any consent already given at any time. The lawfulness of processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected.

Right to object under Art. 21 GDPR

If data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. If you object, we will no longer process the personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing purposes. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing.

Right to lodge a complaint

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract, in a commonly used, machine-readable format, or to have it transferred to a third party where technically feasible.

Access, rectification and erasure

This right exists in particular where you contest the accuracy of your stored personal data, where processing is unlawful, where we no longer need the data but you require it for legal claims, or where you have objected to processing under Art. 21(1) GDPR and a balancing of interests is still pending.
