In accordance with Art. 13 GDPR, we inform you about the legal basis of our data processing. If the legal basis is not mentioned in the Privacy Policy, the following applies: The legal basis for obtaining consents is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a and Art. 7 GDPR, the legal basis for the processing for the performance of our services and implementation of contractual measures as well as responding to inquiries is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, the legal basis for processing to fulfill our legal obligations is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR, and the legal basis for processing to protect our legitimate interests is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

Collaboration with Processors and Third Parties

When we disclose data to other individuals and companies (processors or third parties), transmit it to them, or otherwise grant them access to the data as part of our processing, this is done only on the basis of legal permission (e.g., if transmission to third parties, such as payment service providers, is necessary under Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR for contract fulfillment), you have consented, a legal obligation provides for it, or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g., when using agents, web hosts, etc.).

Sofern wir Dritte mit der Verarbeitung von Daten auf Grundlage eines sog. „Auftragsverarbeitungsvertrages“ beauftragen, geschieht dies auf Grundlage des Art. 28 DSGVO.

Transfers to Third Countries

If we process data in a third country (i.e., outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)), or this occurs as part of the use of third-party services or disclosure or transfer of data to third parties, this is only done if it is necessary to fulfill our (pre)contractual obligations, based on your consent, due to a legal obligation, or on the basis of our legitimate interests. Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we process or let the data be processed in a third country only in the presence of the special conditions of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR. That is, the processing is carried out on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognized determination of a data protection level corresponding to the EU, or compliance with officially recognized specific contractual obligations (so-called "standard contractual clauses").

Cookies and Right to Object in Direct Advertising

"Cookies" are small files that are stored on users' computers. Various information can be stored within the cookies. A cookie primarily serves to store the information about a user (or the device on which the cookie is stored) during or after their visit within an online service. Temporary cookies, or "session cookies" or "transient cookies," are cookies that are deleted after a user leaves an online service and closes their browser. Such a cookie can store the contents of a shopping cart in an online store or a login status. "Permanent" or "persistent" cookies remain stored even after the browser is closed. Thus, the login status can be saved when users visit it after several days. Likewise, the interests of users used for reach measurement or marketing purposes can be stored in such a cookie. "Third-party cookies" are cookies offered by providers other than the responsible party that operates the online service (otherwise, if only their cookies are used, these are called "first-party cookies").

We may use temporary and permanent cookies and clarify this within the framework of our privacy policy.

If users do not want cookies to be stored on their computer, they are asked to deactivate the corresponding option in the system settings of their browser. Stored cookies can be deleted in the system settings of the browser. The exclusion of cookies can lead to functional restrictions of this online offer.

A general objection to the use of cookies used for online marketing purposes can be declared via the US site http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU site http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. Furthermore, the storage of cookies can be achieved by switching them off in the settings of the browser. Please note that not all functions of this online offer may be available. http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ oder die EU-Seite http://www.youronlinechoices.com/ erklärt werden. Des Weiteren kann die Speicherung von Cookies mittels deren Abschaltung in den Einstellungen des Browsers erreicht werden. Bitte beachten Sie, dass dann gegebenenfalls nicht alle Funktionen dieses Onlineangebotes genutzt werden können.

For managing the cookies and similar technologies used (tracking pixels, web beacons, etc.) and related consents, we use the Consent Tool "Real Cookie Banner". Details on the functionality of "Real Cookie Banner" can be found at https://devowl.io/de/rcb/datenverarbeitung/. https://devowl.io/de/rcb/datenverarbeitung/.

The legal basis for processing personal data in this context is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the management of the cookies used and related technologies and the consents concerning them.

The provision of personal data is neither contractually required nor necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are not obliged to provide personal data. If you do not provide personal data, we cannot manage your consents.

Data Deletion

The data processed by us will be deleted or restricted in processing in accordance with Articles 17 and 18 GDPR. Unless explicitly stated otherwise in this privacy policy, the data stored by us will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for its intended purpose, and there are no legal obligations to retain it. If the data is not deleted because it is required for other and legally permissible purposes, its processing is restricted. That is, the data is locked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for commercial or tax reasons.

According to legal requirements in Germany, storage is particularly required for 6 years according to § 257 para. 1 HGB (commercial books, inventories, opening balance sheets, annual financial statements, commercial letters, accounting vouchers, etc.) and for 10 years according to § 147 para. 1 AO (books, records, management reports, accounting vouchers, commercial and business letters, documents relevant for taxation, etc.).

According to legal requirements in Austria, storage is particularly required for 7 years according to § 132 para. 1 BAO (accounting documents, invoices, accounts, receipts, business papers, statement of income and expenses, etc.), for 22 years in connection with real estate, and for 10 years for documents related to electronically supplied services, telecommunications, broadcasting and television services provided to non-business customers in EU member states for which the Mini One Stop Shop (MOSS) is used.
