Legal bases for the processing of personal data

In the following, we inform you about the legal bases for the processing of personal data:

1.  If we have obtained your consent for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR is the legal basis.
   
   
2.  If processing is necessary for the performance of a contract or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.
   
   
3. If processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject (e.g. statutory retention obligations), the legal basis is Art. 6(1)(1)(c) GDPR.
   
   
4. If processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(d) GDPR.
   
   
5. If the processing is necessary to protect our legitimate interests or those of a third party and your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms do not override these interests, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR.

Disclosure of personal data to third parties and processors

We do not disclose any data to third parties without your consent. Should this nevertheless be the case, the data will be passed on on the basis of the aforementioned legal bases, e.g. when passing on data to online payment providers for contract fulfillment or due to a court order or due to a legal obligation to hand over the data for the purpose of criminal prosecution, to avert danger or to enforce intellectual property rights.
We also use processors (external service providers, e.g. for web hosting of our websites and databases) to process your data. If data is passed on to the processors as part of an agreement on order processing, this is always done in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. We select our processors carefully, monitor them regularly and have been granted the right to issue instructions regarding the data. In addition, the processors must have taken appropriate technical and organizational measures and comply with the data protection regulations in accordance with BDSG n.F. and GDPR

Data transfer to third countries

The adoption of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has created a uniform basis for data protection in Europe. Your data is therefore primarily processed by companies to which the GDPR applies. However, if processing is carried out by third-party services outside the European Union or the European Economic Area, these must fulfill the special requirements of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR must be met. This means that the processing takes place on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognized determination by the EU Commission of a level of data protection corresponding to the EU or compliance with officially recognized special contractual obligations, the so-called "standard contractual clauses".
Insofar as we obtain your express consent to the transfer of data to the USA due to the ineffectiveness of the so-called "Privacy Shield", in accordance with Art. 49 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR, we would like to point out the risk of secret access by US authorities and the use of the data for surveillance purposes, possibly without legal remedies for EU citizens.

Deletion of data and storage duration

Unless expressly stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as you revoke your consent to processing or the purpose for storage no longer applies or the data is no longer required for the purpose. the data are no longer required for the purpose, unless their further storage is necessary for evidence purposes or is contrary to statutory retention obligations. This includes, for example, commercial law obligations to retain business letters in accordance with Section 257 (1) HGB (6 years) and tax law obligations to retain documents in accordance with Section 147 (1) AO (10 years). If the prescribed retention period expires, your data will be blocked or deleted unless storage is still required for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

Existence of automated decision-making

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling.

1. We have integrated the Consent Manager Provider (CMP) on our website (service provider: Jaohawi AB, Håltegelvägen 1b, 72348 Västerås, Sweden, website: https://www.consentmanager.de) as a consent management service.


   
   
2. Data categories and description of data processing: Cookies, date and time of visit, device information, browser information, anonymized IP address, opt-in and opt-out data. This service enables us to obtain and document your consent to the storage of cookies. In addition, a cookie is stored in your browser in order to be able to assign the consent given or its revocation to you. Further information can be found below in the data protection declaration of the data processor CMP: https://www.consentmanager.de/privacy.php.


   
   
3. Purposes of data processing: Compliance with legal obligations, consent storage.

On the one hand, the retention is based on our accountability obligation pursuant to Art. 5 para. 2 GDPR.

The entries marked as mandatory in online forms are required for the conclusion of the contract.


   
   
2. This data will not be passed on to third parties unless it is necessary to pursue our claims (e.g. transfer to a lawyer for debt collection) or to fulfill the contract (e.g. transfer of data to payment providers) or there is a legal obligation to do so in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. c) GDPR.


   
   
3. We may also process the data you provide in order to inform you about other interesting products from our portfolio or to send you emails with technical information.

This is the case for inventory and contract data when the data is no longer required for the performance of the contract and no more claims can be asserted under the contract because they are time-barred (warranty: two years / standard limitation period: three years). Due to commercial and tax law requirements, we are obliged to store your address, payment and order data for a period of ten years. However, we restrict processing after three years if the contract is terminated, i.e. your data will only be used to comply with legal obligations. Information in the user account remains until it is deleted.

The same applies if, for example, a credit card company reverses a transaction made by you at the expense of the controller.


   
   
2. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR, as the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract by the controller.
