We process your personal information only as far as it is necessary to provide a functional website as well as our contents and services. The processing of your personal data takes place regularly only on the basis of your consent. An exception applies to cases in which prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and the data processing is permitted by legal regulations.
As long as we obtain your consent for processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR applies as the legal basis.
In the processing of your personal data, which is required to implement a contract of which you are a party, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations required to carry out any pre-contractual actions.
As long as the processing of your personal data is required in order to implement a legal obligation of our company, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of you or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or of a third party, and if the interests, your fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.
Your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for storage ceases to apply. In addition, such storage may be provided for also by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the person responsible is subject. Blocking or deletion of the data also takes place when a storage period prescribed by the relevant standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for conclusion of a contract or implementation of the contract.
You can always exercise the following rights under the contact details of our data protection officer:

d) if you have objected to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR and it is not yet certain whether the legitimate reasons of the person responsible outweigh your reasons.
If the processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, this data may only be used with your consent or for the purpose of asserting,
exercising or defending legal claims or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.
If the limitation of the processing under the above-mentioned conditions is restricted, you will be informed by the person responsible before the restriction is lifted.

The right to deletion does not apply if the processing is necessary
a) to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;

If you have applied the right of rectification, deletion or restriction of processing with the person responsible, he / she is obliged to notify of this rectification, or deletion of the data, or restriction of processing all recipients to whom your personal data have been disclosed, unless this proves to be impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.
You have a right to be informed by the person responsible about these recipients.
You have the right to receive in a structured, common and computer-readable format the relevant personal data you provide to the person responsible. In addition, you have the right to transfer this data to another person responsible without any restrictions on the part of the person responsible who received your personal data, as long as
a) the processing is based on a consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR and
b) the processing is done by automated means.
While exercising this right, you also have the right to have your personal data relating to you transmitted directly from one person responsible to another, insofar as this is technically feasible. Freedoms and rights of other persons must not be herewith affected.
The right to data transferability does not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the implementation of a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority delegated to the person responsible.
You have the right at any time, for reasons that arise from your particular situation, to object against the processing of your personal data pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
The person responsible will no longer process the personal data concerning you unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the purpose of enforcing, exercising or defending legal claims.
If the personal data relating to you are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar it is associated with such direct marketing.
If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.
Regardless of Directive 2002/58/EC, you have the option, in the context of the use of information society services, of exercising your right to object through automated procedures that use technical specifications.
You have the legal right to revoke your data protection declaration at any time. The revocation of consent does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.
You have the right not to be subjected to a decision based solely on automated processing including profiling that will have legal effect against you or affect you substantially in a similar manner. This does not apply if the decision
a) is required for the conclusion or implementation of a contract between you and the person responsible;
b) is permitted by Union or Member State legislation to which the person responsible is subject, and where such legislation contains appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, or
c) has your express consent.
However, these decisions must not be based on special categories of personal data under Art. 9 (1) GDPR, unless Art. 9 (2) lit. a or g GDPR applies and reasonable measures have been taken to protect the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.
With regard to the cases mentioned in a) and b), the person responsible shall take appropriate measures to uphold your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person related to the person responsible, to express his or her own position and to challenge the relevant decision.
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you shall have the right to complain to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, of your place of work or place of alleged infringement, if you believe that the processing of your personal data is violating GDPR.
The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been submitted shall inform the complainant of the status and results of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR.
We process your personal data only for the purposes stated in this privacy policy. There is no transfer of your personal data to third parties taking place for purposes other than those mentioned. We share your personal data with third parties only if:
a) you have given your express consent to the respective transfer;
b) the processing is required in order to implement a contract with you;
