How we use your data

In principle, we process users’ personal data only insofar as this is necessary for the provision of a functional website and of our content and services. The processing of users’ personal data regularly occurs only with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases in which prior consent cannot be obtained for reasons of fact and the processing of the data is permitted by legal regulations.

The legal bases for the processing operations are determined according to the EU Data Protection Regulation according to Art. 6 Para. 1. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or according to the relevant national laws.
The personal data of the individual affected will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage ceases to apply. Storage may also occur if provided for by legal regulations to which the responsible party is subject. Blocking or deletion of the data also occurs when a storage period prescribed by the standards named expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for completion of a contract or fulfilment of a contract.
 

The individual affected by the data processing is not subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, which has a legal effect on the individual or, in a similar manner, significantly affects the individual.
