Information on the Collection of Personal Data

We process personal data to display this website and enable the use of the services listed here. In some cases, we use external service providers to process your data. These providers are carefully selected by us, are bound by our instructions, and are regularly monitored.

When you use the website for informational purposes—that is, simply viewing it without otherwise providing us with information—we process the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. The data described below is technically necessary for us to display our website to you and to ensure its stability and security, and must therefore be processed by us. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

Disclosure of Your Data to Third Parties

Beyond the scope described above, your data may be disclosed to third parties, in particular to public authorities, to fulfill contractual or legal obligations, based on Art. 6(1)(c) of the GDPR.

Your Rights

(1) You have the following rights vis-à-vis the controller regarding your personal data:

  • Right of access (Art. 15(1) GDPR)
  • Right to rectification or erasure (Art. 16 and 17(1) GDPR)
  • Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18(1) GDPR)
  • Right to data portability (Art. 20(1) GDPR)

(2) You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority regarding our processing of your personal data (Art. 77 GDPR).

(3) If you have given consent to the processing of your data, you also have the right under Art. 7(3) GDPR to withdraw this consent at any time. Such a withdrawal affects the lawfulness of the processing of your personal data after you have notified us of it. The lawfulness of the processing of your data up to the time of your withdrawal remains unaffected.

(4) To the extent that we base the processing of your personal data on the balancing of interests pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR. This is the case, in particular, if the processing is not necessary for the performance of a contract with you, which we will explain in each instance in the following description of the functions. If you exercise such an objection, we ask that you explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data in the manner we have been doing. In the event of your objection, we will review the situation and either cease or adjust the data processing, or explain to you our compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we will continue the processing.
