General Information

How long do we store your data?

In some parts of this privacy policy, we inform you about how long we or the companies that process your data on our behalf will store your data. In the absence of such information, we store your data until the purpose of the data processing no longer applies, you object to the data processing, or you revoke your consent to the data processing.

In the event of an objection or revocation, we may, however, continue to process your data if at least one of the following conditions applies:

We have compelling legitimate grounds for continuing to process the data that override your interests, rights, and freedoms (only applies in the case of an objection to data processing; if the objection is to direct marketing, we cannot provide legitimate grounds).
The data processing is necessary to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims (does not apply if your objection is directed against direct advertising.
We are required by law to retain your data. In this case, we will delete your data as soon as the condition(s) no longer apply.

In this case, we will delete your data as soon as the requirement(s) cease to apply.

Data Transfer to the USA

On our website, we use tools from companies that transfer your data to the USA and store it there and, if necessary, process it further. The European Commission has adopted an adequacy decision for the EU-US data protection framework. The decision establishes that the US ensures an adequate level of protection for EU personal data transferred to US companies. This decision is based on new safeguards and measures put in place by the US to meet data protection requirements. The adequacy decision includes, among other things, restrictions and safeguards on access to data by US intelligence agencies. Binding safeguards were introduced to limit US intelligence agencies' access to what is necessary and proportionate to protect national security. In addition, enhanced oversight of US intelligence activities was established to ensure that restrictions on surveillance activities are respected. An independent redress mechanism has also been established to handle and resolve complaints from European citizens about access to their data. The EU-US data protection framework thus allows European companies to transfer data to certified US companies without having to introduce additional data protection safeguards. A list of all certified companies can be found at the following link: https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/participant-search.

A change in the European Commission's decision cannot be ruled out.

NO REASONS ARE REQUIRED IF THE OBJECTION IS DIRECTED AGAINST THE USE OF YOUR DATA FOR DIRECT ADVERTISING.

Other rights
Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are based on your consent. You can give this consent, for example, by
ticking the appropriate box on online forms before you send the form, or by allowing the operation of certain cookies when you visit our website. You may revoke your consent at any time without giving reasons (Art. 7 (3) GDPR). From the time of revocation, we may no longer process your data. The only exception: we are required by law to retain the data for a certain period. Such retention periods exist in particular in tax and commercial law.

Right to complain to the competent supervisory authority

If you believe that we are in breach of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority under Art. 77 GDPR. You may contact a supervisory authority in the Member State of your residence, place of work, or the place where the alleged infringement took place. The right to complain exists alongside administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability
We must hand over data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract to you or a third party in a common machine-readable format if you request this. We can only transfer the data to another “data controller” if this is technically possible.

Right to information, deletion, and correction of data
According to Art. 15 GDPR, you have the right to receive information free of charge about which of your
data we have stored, where the data came from, to whom we transmit the data, and for what purpose it is stored. If the data is incorrect, you have the right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR), and under the conditions of Art. 17 GDPR, you may demand that we delete the data.

Right to restriction of processing

In certain situations, according to Art. 18 GDPR, you may demand that we restrict the processing of your data. The data may then, apart from storage, only be processed as follows:

With your consent
for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims
to protect the rights of another natural or legal person
for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

The right to restrict processing exists in the following situations:

You have disputed the accuracy of your data stored by us, and we need time to verify this. The right exists for the duration of the review.
The processing of your data is unlawful or was unlawful in the past. The right exists in addition to the deletion of the data.
We no longer need your data, but you need it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims. The right exists in addition to the deletion of the data.
You have filed an objection under Art. 21 (1) GDPR, and now your interests and our interests must be weighed against each other. The right exists as long as the result of the balancing of interests has not yet been determined.

Server log files

Server log files log all requests and accesses to our website and record error messages. They also include personal data, in particular your IP address. However, this is anonymized by the provider after a short time, so that we cannot assign the data to your person. The data is automatically transmitted to our provider by your browser.

How do we process your data?

Our provider stores the server log files in order to be able to track the activities on our website and to locate errors. The files contain the following data:

browser type and version
Operating system used
referrer URL
host: hostname of the accessing computer
Time of the server request
IP address (anonymized if necessary)

We do not combine this data with other data but use it only for statistical analysis and to improve our website.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

We have a legitimate interest in ensuring that our website runs without errors. It is also our legitimate interest to obtain an anonymized overview of the accesses to our website. Therefore, the data processing is lawful according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

In all other cases, it is our legitimate interest to effectively process requests directed to us. The legal basis for data processing is therefore Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

Social-Media-Plugins
Use of social media plugins
Regular use

We use social media plugins on our website. You can recognize these by the logos of the social networks. Thanks to the plugins, you can easily share the content on our website on social networks. The list at the end of this section shows which plugins we use in detail. Here you will also find the networks' information relevant to data protection.

How do we process your data?
Due to the embedded plugins, a connection to the servers of the social networks is established when you visit our website. This happens even if you do not share any content. In this way, the offering companies learn that the website was visited via your IP address. If you are logged into your account on a social network when you visit our website, the transmitted data can also be assigned to your profile. If you do not want this, you must log out of your account before you continue surfing the Internet.

Except for Xing, all networks store the IP address. Further personal data may be added. In this case, your data is usually transferred to servers in the USA. If this is the case, you can find out the basis on which this happens in each case from the information on the networks given below.

On what legal basis do we process your data?

The success of our company needs to be present on social networks. It is therefore our legitimate interest to use the social media plugins to ensure that the content of our website or our offers can be easily shared. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR.

If you have consented to data processing, we process your data exclusively based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR. You may revoke your consent at any time. From the time of revocation, we may no longer process your data.
