Relevant legal bases

Below you will find an overview of the GDPR legal bases on which we process personal data. Please note that in addition to the GDPR regulations, national data protection regulations may apply in your or our country of residence or domicile. Should more specific legal bases apply in individual cases, we will inform you of these in the privacy policy.

National data protection regulations in Germany: In addition to the data protection regulations of the General Data Protection Regulation, national data protection regulations apply in Germany. This includes, in particular, the Act on the Protection against Misuse of Personal Data in Data Processing (Federal Data Protection Act – BDSG). The BDSG contains, in particular, special provisions on the right to information, the right to erasure, the right of objection, the processing of special categories of personal data, processing for other purposes, and transmission and automated decision-making in individual cases, including profiling. Furthermore, it regulates data processing for the purposes of the employment relationship (Section 26 BDSG), particularly with regard to the establishment, implementation, or termination of employment relationships and the consent of employees. Furthermore, state data protection laws of the individual federal states may apply.

Security Measures

We take appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, implementation costs, and the nature, scope, circumstances, and purposes of processing, as well as the varying probabilities of occurrence and the extent of the threat to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.

These measures include, in particular, safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data, as well as the access, input, and transfer of data, ensuring its availability, and segregation. Furthermore, we have established procedures that ensure the exercise of data subjects’ rights, the deletion of data, and responses to data threats. Furthermore, we consider the protection of personal data right from the development and selection of hardware, software, and processes in accordance with the principle of data protection, through technology design, and through data protection-friendly default settings.

SSL encryption (https): To protect the data you transmit via our online offering, we use SSL encryption. You can recognize such encrypted connections by the prefix https:// in your browser’s address bar.

Transfer of personal data

As part of our processing of personal data, it may happen that the data is transmitted to other bodies, companies, legally independent organizational units, or individuals, or that it is disclosed to them. Recipients of this data may include, for example, service providers commissioned with IT tasks or providers of services and content that are integrated into a website. In such cases, we comply with legal requirements and, in particular, conclude appropriate contracts or agreements with the recipients of your data that serve to protect your data.

Data processing in third countries

If we process data in a third country (i.e., outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if the processing takes place in the context of using third-party services or disclosing or transmitting data to other persons, bodies, or companies, this will only be done in accordance with the legal requirements.

Deletion of data

The data we process will be deleted in accordance with legal requirements as soon as the consents permitted for processing are revoked or other permissions expire (e.g., if the purpose of processing this data no longer applies or it is no longer required for that purpose).

If the data is not deleted because it is required for other legally permissible purposes, its processing will be limited to these purposes. This means that the data will be blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for commercial or tax law reasons, or whose storage is necessary to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person.

Our privacy policy may also contain further information on the retention and deletion of data, which applies primarily to the respective processing.

Use of cookies

Cookies are text files that contain data from visited websites or domains and are stored by a browser on the user’s computer. A cookie is primarily used to store information about a user during or after their visit to an online service. The stored information can include, for example, the language settings on a website, the login status, a shopping cart, or the location where a video was watched. The term “cookies” also includes other technologies that perform the same functions as cookies (e.g., when user information is stored using pseudonymous online identifiers, also known as “user IDs”).

The following cookie types and functions are distinguished:

• Temporary cookies (also known as session cookies): Temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user has left an online service and closed their browser.
• Permanent cookies: Permanent cookies remain stored even after the browser is closed. For example, the login status can be saved or preferred content can be displayed directly when the user visits a website again. Likewise, the interests of users, which are used for reach measurement or marketing purposes, can be stored in such a cookie.
• First-party cookies: First-party cookies are set by us.
• Third-party cookies (also: third-party cookies): Third-party cookies are mainly used by advertisers (so-called third parties) to process user information.
• Necessary (also: essential or absolutely necessary) cookies: Cookies can be absolutely necessary for the operation of a website (e.g., to save logins or other user inputs or for security reasons).

Such profiles serve to show users, for example, content that corresponds to their potential interests. This process is also referred to as “tracking,” i.e., tracking the potential interests of users. If we use cookies or tracking technologies, we will inform you separately in our privacy policy or when obtaining consent.

Notes on legal bases: The legal basis on which we process your personal data with the help of cookies depends on whether we ask for your consent. If this applies and you consent to the use of cookies, the legal basis for processing your data is your declared consent. Otherwise, the data processed with the help of cookies will be processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g., in the commercial operation and improvement of our online offering) or, if the use of cookies is necessary, to fulfill our contractual obligations.

Storage period: Unless we provide you with explicit information about the storage period for permanent cookies (e.g., as part of a so-called cookie opt-in), please assume that the storage period can be up to two years.

General information on revocation and objection (opt-out): Depending on whether the processing is based on consent or legal permission, you have the option at any time to revoke your consent or to object to the processing of your data using cookie technologies (collectively referred to as “opt-out”). You can initially declare your objection using your browser settings, e.g., by deactivating the use of cookies (although this may also limit the functionality of our online offering). An objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can also be declared using a variety of services, especially in the case of tracking, via the websites https://optout.aboutads.info and https://www.youronlinechoices.com/. You can also obtain further objection information within the information on the service providers and cookies used.

Processing of cookie data based on consent: We use a cookie consent management procedure, within the framework of which users’ consent to the use of cookies, or to the processing methods and providers specified in the cookie consent management procedure, can be obtained, managed, and revoked by users. The consent declaration is stored so that it does not have to be requested again and so that consent can be proven in accordance with legal requirements. Storage can take place on the server side and/or in a cookie (so-called opt-in cookies or using comparable technologies) in order to assign consent to a user or their device. Subject to individual information about the providers of cookie management services, the following information applies: The consent can be stored for up to two years. A pseudonymous user identifier is created and stored along with the time of consent, information about the scope of the consent (e.g., which categories of cookies and/or service providers), as well as the browser, system, and device used.

Plugins and embedded functions and content

We integrate functional and content elements into our online offering that are obtained from the servers of their respective providers (hereinafter referred to as “third-party providers”). These can include, for example, graphics, videos, or city maps (hereinafter collectively referred to as “content”).

Integration always requires that the third-party providers of this content process the users’ IP address, since without the IP address they would not be able to send the content to their browser. The IP address is therefore necessary for the display of this content or functions. We endeavor to only use content whose respective providers use the IP address solely to deliver the content. Third-party providers may also use so-called pixel tags (invisible graphics, also known as “web beacons”) for statistical or marketing purposes. These “pixel tags” enable information, such as visitor traffic on the pages of this website, to be evaluated. The pseudonymous information may also be stored in cookies on the user’s device and may contain, among other things, technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, the time of visit, and other information about the use of our online offering, as well as be linked to such information from other sources.

Notes on legal bases: If we ask users for their consent to the use of third-party providers, the legal basis for data processing is consent. Otherwise, user data is processed based on our legitimate interests (i.e., interest in efficient, economical, and user-friendly services). In this context, we would also like to draw your attention to the information on the use of cookies in this privacy policy.

• Types of data processed: Usage data (e.g., websites visited, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g., device information, IP addresses).
• Data subjects: Users (e.g., website visitors, users of online services).
