Pri­va­cy Poli­cy

We are very deligh­ted that you have shown inte­rest in our enter­pri­se. Data pro­tec­tion is of a par­ti­cu­lar­ly high prio­ri­ty for the manage­ment of the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG. The use of the Inter­net pages of the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG is pos­si­ble wit­hout any indi­ca­ti­on of per­so­nal data; howe­ver, if a data sub­ject wants to use spe­cial enter­pri­se ser­vices via our web­site, pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data could beco­me neces­sa­ry. If the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data is neces­sa­ry and the­re is no sta­tu­to­ry basis for such pro­ces­sing, we gene­ral­ly obtain con­sent from the data sub­ject.

The pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or tele­pho­ne num­ber of a data sub­ject shall always be in line with the Gene­ral Data Pro­tec­tion Regu­la­ti­on (GDPR), and in accordance with the coun­try-spe­ci­fic data pro­tec­tion regu­la­ti­ons appli­ca­ble to the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG. By means of this data pro­tec­tion decla­ra­ti­on, our enter­pri­se would like to inform the gene­ral public of the natu­re, scope, and pur­po­se of the per­so­nal data we coll­ect, use and pro­cess. Fur­ther­mo­re, data sub­jects are infor­med, by means of this data pro­tec­tion decla­ra­ti­on, of the rights to which they are entit­led.

As the con­trol­ler, the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG has imple­men­ted num­e­rous tech­ni­cal and orga­niza­tio­nal mea­su­res to ensu­re the most com­ple­te pro­tec­tion of per­so­nal data pro­ces­sed through this web­site. Howe­ver, Inter­net-based data trans­mis­si­ons may in prin­ci­ple have secu­ri­ty gaps, so abso­lu­te pro­tec­tion may not be gua­ran­teed. For this reason, every data sub­ject is free to trans­fer per­so­nal data to us via alter­na­ti­ve means, e.g. by tele­pho­ne.

  1. Defi­ni­ti­ons

The data pro­tec­tion decla­ra­ti­on of the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG is based on the terms used by the Euro­pean legis­la­tor for the adop­ti­on of the Gene­ral Data Pro­tec­tion Regu­la­ti­on (GDPR). Our data pro­tec­tion decla­ra­ti­on should be legi­ble and under­stan­da­ble for the gene­ral public, as well as our cus­to­mers and busi­ness part­ners. To ensu­re this, we would like to first explain the ter­mi­no­lo­gy used.

  • d)    Rest­ric­tion of pro­ces­sing

Rest­ric­tion of pro­ces­sing is the mar­king of stored per­so­nal data with the aim of limi­ting their pro­ces­sing in the future.

  • e)    Pro­fil­ing

Pro­fil­ing means any form of auto­ma­ted pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data con­sis­ting of the use of per­so­nal data to eva­lua­te cer­tain per­so­nal aspects rela­ting to a natu­ral per­son, in par­ti­cu­lar to ana­ly­se or pre­dict aspects con­cer­ning that natu­ral person's per­for­mance at work, eco­no­mic situa­ti­on, health, per­so­nal pre­fe­ren­ces, inte­rests, relia­bi­li­ty, beha­viour, loca­ti­on or move­ments.

  • f)     Pseud­ony­mi­sa­ti­on

Pseud­ony­mi­sa­ti­on is the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data in such a man­ner that the per­so­nal data can no lon­ger be attri­bu­ted to a spe­ci­fic data sub­ject wit­hout the use of addi­tio­nal infor­ma­ti­on, pro­vi­ded that such addi­tio­nal infor­ma­ti­on is kept sepa­ra­te­ly and is sub­ject to tech­ni­cal and orga­ni­sa­tio­nal mea­su­res to ensu­re that the per­so­nal data are not attri­bu­ted to an iden­ti­fied or iden­ti­fia­ble natu­ral per­son.

  • g)    Con­trol­ler or con­trol­ler respon­si­ble for the pro­ces­sing

Con­trol­ler or con­trol­ler respon­si­ble for the pro­ces­sing is the natu­ral or legal per­son, public aut­ho­ri­ty, agen­cy or other body which, alo­ne or joint­ly with others, deter­mi­nes the pur­po­ses and means of the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data; whe­re the pur­po­ses and means of such pro­ces­sing are deter­mi­ned by Uni­on or Mem­ber Sta­te law, the con­trol­ler or the spe­ci­fic cri­te­ria for its nomi­na­ti­on may be pro­vi­ded for by Uni­on or Mem­ber Sta­te law.

  • h)    Pro­ces­sor

  1. Coo­kies

The Inter­net pages of the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG use coo­kies. Coo­kies are text files that are stored in a com­pu­ter sys­tem via an Inter­net brow­ser.

Many Inter­net sites and ser­vers use coo­kies. Many coo­kies con­tain a so-cal­led coo­kie ID. A coo­kie ID is a uni­que iden­ti­fier of the coo­kie. It con­sists of a cha­rac­ter string through which Inter­net pages and ser­vers can be assi­gned to the spe­ci­fic Inter­net brow­ser in which the coo­kie was stored. This allows visi­ted Inter­net sites and ser­vers to dif­fe­ren­tia­te the indi­vi­du­al brow­ser of the dats sub­ject from other Inter­net brow­sers that con­tain other coo­kies. A spe­ci­fic Inter­net brow­ser can be reco­gni­zed and iden­ti­fied using the uni­que coo­kie ID.

Through the use of coo­kies, the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG can pro­vi­de the users of this web­site with more user-fri­end­ly ser­vices that would not be pos­si­ble wit­hout the coo­kie set­ting.

By means of a coo­kie, the infor­ma­ti­on and offers on our web­site can be opti­mi­zed with the user in mind. Coo­kies allow us, as pre­vious­ly men­tio­ned, to reco­gni­ze our web­site users. The pur­po­se of this reco­gni­ti­on is to make it easier for users to uti­li­ze our web­site. The web­site user that uses coo­kies, e.g. does not have to enter access data each time the web­site is acces­sed, becau­se this is taken over by the web­site, and the coo­kie is thus stored on the user's com­pu­ter sys­tem. Ano­ther exam­p­le is the coo­kie of a shop­ping cart in an online shop. The online store remem­bers the artic­les that a cus­to­mer has pla­ced in the vir­tu­al shop­ping cart via a coo­kie.

The data sub­ject may, at any time, pre­vent the set­ting of coo­kies through our web­site by means of a cor­re­spon­ding set­ting of the Inter­net brow­ser used, and may thus per­ma­nent­ly deny the set­ting of coo­kies. Fur­ther­mo­re, alre­a­dy set coo­kies may be dele­ted at any time via an Inter­net brow­ser or other soft­ware pro­grams. This is pos­si­ble in all popu­lar Inter­net brow­sers. If the data sub­ject deac­ti­va­tes the set­ting of coo­kies in the Inter­net brow­ser used, not all func­tions of our web­site may be enti­re­ly usable.

  1. Coll­ec­tion of gene­ral data and infor­ma­ti­on

The web­site of the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG coll­ects a series of gene­ral data and infor­ma­ti­on when a data sub­ject or auto­ma­ted sys­tem calls up the web­site. This gene­ral data and infor­ma­ti­on are stored in the ser­ver log files. Coll­ec­ted may be (1) the brow­ser types and ver­si­ons used, (2) the ope­ra­ting sys­tem used by the acces­sing sys­tem, (3) the web­site from which an acces­sing sys­tem rea­ches our web­site (so-cal­led refer­rers), (4) the sub-web­sites, (5) the date and time of access to the Inter­net site, (6) an Inter­net pro­to­col address (IP address), (7) the Inter­net ser­vice pro­vi­der of the acces­sing sys­tem, and (8) any other simi­lar data and infor­ma­ti­on that may be used in the event of attacks on our infor­ma­ti­on tech­no­lo­gy sys­tems.

When using the­se gene­ral data and infor­ma­ti­on, the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG does not draw any con­clu­si­ons about the data sub­ject. Rather, this infor­ma­ti­on is nee­ded to (1) deli­ver the con­tent of our web­site cor­rect­ly, (2) opti­mi­ze the con­tent of our web­site as well as its adver­ti­se­ment, (3) ensu­re the long-term via­bi­li­ty of our infor­ma­ti­on tech­no­lo­gy sys­tems and web­site tech­no­lo­gy, and (4) pro­vi­de law enforce­ment aut­ho­ri­ties with the infor­ma­ti­on neces­sa­ry for cri­mi­nal pro­se­cu­ti­on in case of a cyber-attack. The­r­e­fo­re, the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG ana­ly­zes anony­mously coll­ec­ted data and infor­ma­ti­on sta­tis­ti­cal­ly, with the aim of incre­asing the data pro­tec­tion and data secu­ri­ty of our enter­pri­se, and to ensu­re an opti­mal level of pro­tec­tion for the per­so­nal data we pro­cess. The anony­mous data of the ser­ver log files are stored sepa­ra­te­ly from all per­so­nal data pro­vi­ded by a data sub­ject.

  1. Cont­act pos­si­bi­li­ty via the web­site

The web­site of the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG con­ta­ins infor­ma­ti­on that enables a quick elec­tro­nic cont­act to our enter­pri­se, as well as direct com­mu­ni­ca­ti­on with us, which also includes a gene­ral address of the so-cal­led elec­tro­nic mail (e-mail address). If a data sub­ject cont­acts the con­trol­ler by e-mail or via a cont­act form, the per­so­nal data trans­mit­ted by the data sub­ject are auto­ma­ti­cal­ly stored. Such per­so­nal data trans­mit­ted on a vol­un­t­a­ry basis by a data sub­ject to the data con­trol­ler are stored for the pur­po­se of pro­ces­sing or cont­ac­ting the data sub­ject. The­re is no trans­fer of this per­so­nal data to third par­ties.

  1. Rou­ti­ne era­su­re and blo­cking of per­so­nal data

The data con­trol­ler shall pro­cess and store the per­so­nal data of the data sub­ject only for the peri­od neces­sa­ry to achie­ve the pur­po­se of sto­rage, or as far as this is gran­ted by the Euro­pean legis­la­tor or other legis­la­tors in laws or regu­la­ti­ons to which the con­trol­ler is sub­ject to.

If the sto­rage pur­po­se is not appli­ca­ble, or if a sto­rage peri­od pre­scri­bed by the Euro­pean legis­la­tor or ano­ther com­pe­tent legis­la­tor expi­res, the per­so­nal data are rou­ti­ne­ly blo­cked or era­sed in accordance with legal requi­re­ments.

  1. Rights of the data sub­ject
  • a) Right of con­fir­ma­ti­on

KG to the pro­ces­sing for direct mar­ke­ting pur­po­ses, the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG will no lon­ger pro­cess the per­so­nal data for the­se pur­po­ses.

In addi­ti­on, the data sub­ject has the right, on grounds rela­ting to his or her par­ti­cu­lar situa­ti­on, to object to pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data con­cer­ning him or her by the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG for sci­en­ti­fic or his­to­ri­cal rese­arch pur­po­ses, or for sta­tis­ti­cal pur­po­ses pur­su­ant to Artic­le 89(1) of the GDPR, unless the pro­ces­sing is neces­sa­ry for the per­for­mance of a task car­ri­ed out for reasons of public inte­rest.

In order to exer­cise the right to object, the data sub­ject may cont­act any employee of the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG. In addi­ti­on, the data sub­ject is free in the con­text of the use of infor­ma­ti­on socie­ty ser­vices, and not­wi­th­stan­ding Direc­ti­ve 2002/58/EC, to use his or her right to object by auto­ma­ted means using tech­ni­cal spe­ci­fi­ca­ti­ons.

  • h) Auto­ma­ted indi­vi­du­al decis­i­on-making, inclu­ding pro­fil­ing

Each data sub­ject shall have the right gran­ted by the Euro­pean legis­la­tor not to be sub­ject to a decis­i­on based sole­ly on auto­ma­ted pro­ces­sing, inclu­ding pro­fil­ing, which pro­du­ces legal effects con­cer­ning him or her, or simi­lar­ly signi­fi­cant­ly affects him or her, as long as the decis­i­on (1) is not is neces­sa­ry for ente­ring into, or the per­for­mance of, a con­tract bet­ween the data sub­ject and a data con­trol­ler, or (2) is not aut­ho­ri­sed by Uni­on or Mem­ber Sta­te law to which the con­trol­ler is sub­ject and which also lays down sui­ta­ble mea­su­res to safe­guard the data subject's rights and free­doms and legi­ti­ma­te inte­rests, or (3) is not based on the data subject's expli­cit con­sent.

If the decis­i­on (1) is neces­sa­ry for ente­ring into, or the per­for­mance of, a con­tract bet­ween the data sub­ject and a data con­trol­ler, or (2) it is based on the data subject's expli­cit con­sent, the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG shall imple­ment sui­ta­ble mea­su­res to safe­guard the data subject's rights and free­doms and legi­ti­ma­te inte­rests, at least the right to obtain human inter­ven­ti­on on the part of the con­trol­ler, to express his or her point of view and con­test the decis­i­on.

If the data sub­ject wis­hes to exer­cise the rights con­cer­ning auto­ma­ted indi­vi­du­al decis­i­on-making, he or she may, at any time, cont­act any employee of the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG.

  • i) Right to with­draw data pro­tec­tion con­sent

Each data sub­ject shall have the right gran­ted by the Euro­pean legis­la­tor to with­draw his or her con­sent to pro­ces­sing of his or her per­so­nal data at any time.

If the data sub­ject wis­hes to exer­cise the right to with­draw the con­sent, he or she may, at any time, cont­act any employee of the Celloflex Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH & Co. KG.

  1. Data pro­tec­tion for appli­ca­ti­ons and the appli­ca­ti­on pro­ce­du­res

The data con­trol­ler shall coll­ect and pro­cess the per­so­nal data of appli­cants for the pur­po­se of the pro­ces­sing of the appli­ca­ti­on pro­ce­du­re. The pro­ces­sing may also be car­ri­ed out elec­tro­ni­cal­ly. This is the case, in par­ti­cu­lar, if an appli­cant sub­mits cor­re­spon­ding appli­ca­ti­on docu­ments by e-mail or by means of a web form on the web­site to the con­trol­ler. If the data con­trol­ler con­cludes an employ­ment con­tract with an appli­cant, the sub­mit­ted data will be stored for the pur­po­se of pro­ces­sing the employ­ment rela­ti­onship in com­pli­ance with legal requi­re­ments. If no employ­ment con­tract is con­cluded with the appli­cant by the con­trol­ler, the appli­ca­ti­on docu­ments shall be auto­ma­ti­cal­ly era­sed two months after noti­fi­ca­ti­on of the refu­sal decis­i­on, pro­vi­ded that no other legi­ti­ma­te inte­rests of the con­trol­ler are oppo­sed to the era­su­re. Other legi­ti­ma­te inte­rest in this rela­ti­on is, e.g. a bur­den of pro­of in a pro­ce­du­re under the Gene­ral Equal Tre­at­ment Act (AGG).

  1. Data pro­tec­tion pro­vi­si­ons about the appli­ca­ti­on and use of Goog­le Ana­ly­tics (with anony­miza­ti­on func­tion)

On this web­site, the con­trol­ler has inte­gra­ted the com­po­nent of Goog­le Ana­ly­tics (with the anony­mi­zer func­tion). Goog­le Ana­ly­tics is a web ana­ly­tics ser­vice. Web ana­ly­tics is the coll­ec­tion, gathe­ring, and ana­ly­sis of data about the beha­vi­or of visi­tors to web­sites. A web ana­ly­sis ser­vice coll­ects, inter alia, data about the web­site from which a per­son has come (the so-cal­led refer­rer), which sub-pages were visi­ted, or how often and for what dura­ti­on a sub-page was view­ed. Web ana­ly­tics are main­ly used for the opti­miza­ti­on of a web­site and in order to car­ry out a cost-bene­fit ana­ly­sis of Inter­net adver­ti­sing.

The ope­ra­tor of the Goog­le Ana­ly­tics com­po­nent is Goog­le Inc., 1600 Amphi­theat­re Pkwy, Moun­tain View, CA 94043-1351, United Sta­tes.

For the web ana­ly­tics through Goog­le Ana­ly­tics the con­trol­ler uses the appli­ca­ti­on "_gat. _anonymizeIp". By means of this appli­ca­ti­on the IP address of the Inter­net con­nec­tion of the data sub­ject is abrid­ged by Goog­le and anony­mi­sed when acces­sing our web­sites from a Mem­ber Sta­te of the Euro­pean Uni­on or ano­ther Con­trac­ting Sta­te to the Agree­ment on the Euro­pean Eco­no­mic Area.

The pur­po­se of the Goog­le Ana­ly­tics com­po­nent is to ana­ly­ze the traf­fic on our web­site. Goog­le uses the coll­ec­ted data and infor­ma­ti­on, inter alia, to eva­lua­te the use of our web­site and to pro­vi­de online reports, which show the acti­vi­ties on our web­sites, and to pro­vi­de other ser­vices con­cer­ning the use of our Inter­net site for us.

Goog­le Ana­ly­tics places a coo­kie on the infor­ma­ti­on tech­no­lo­gy sys­tem of the data sub­ject. The defi­ni­ti­on of coo­kies is explai­ned abo­ve. With the set­ting of the coo­kie, Goog­le is enab­led to ana­ly­ze the use of our web­site. With each call-up to one of the indi­vi­du­al pages of this Inter­net site, which is ope­ra­ted by the con­trol­ler and into which a Goog­le Ana­ly­tics com­po­nent was inte­gra­ted, the Inter­net brow­ser on the infor­ma­ti­on tech­no­lo­gy sys­tem of the data sub­ject will auto­ma­ti­cal­ly sub­mit data through the Goog­le Ana­ly­tics com­po­nent for the pur­po­se of online adver­ti­sing and the sett­le­ment of com­mis­si­ons to Goog­le. During the cour­se of this tech­ni­cal pro­ce­du­re, the enter­pri­se Goog­le gains know­ledge of per­so­nal infor­ma­ti­on, such as the IP address of the data sub­ject, which ser­ves Goog­le, inter alia, to under­stand the ori­gin of visi­tors and clicks, and sub­se­quent­ly crea­te com­mis­si­on sett­le­ments.

The coo­kie is used to store per­so­nal infor­ma­ti­on, such as the access time, the loca­ti­on from which the access was made, and the fre­quen­cy of visits of our web­site by the data sub­ject. With each visit to our Inter­net site, such per­so­nal data, inclu­ding the IP address of the Inter­net access used by the data sub­ject, will be trans­mit­ted to Goog­le in the United Sta­tes of Ame­ri­ca. The­se per­so­nal data are stored by Goog­le in the United Sta­tes of Ame­ri­ca. Goog­le may pass the­se per­so­nal data coll­ec­ted through the tech­ni­cal pro­ce­du­re to third par­ties.

The data sub­ject may, as sta­ted abo­ve, pre­vent the set­ting of coo­kies through our web­site at any time by means of a cor­re­spon­ding adjus­t­ment of the web brow­ser used and thus per­ma­nent­ly deny the set­ting of coo­kies. Such an adjus­t­ment to the Inter­net brow­ser used would also pre­vent Goog­le Ana­ly­tics from set­ting a coo­kie on the infor­ma­ti­on tech­no­lo­gy sys­tem of the data sub­ject. In addi­ti­on, coo­kies alre­a­dy in use by Goog­le Ana­ly­tics may be dele­ted at any time via a web brow­ser or other soft­ware pro­grams.

In addi­ti­on, the data sub­ject has the pos­si­bi­li­ty of objec­ting to a coll­ec­tion of data that are gene­ra­ted by Goog­le Ana­ly­tics, which is rela­ted to the use of this web­site, as well as the pro­ces­sing of this data by Goog­le and the chan­ce to pre­clude any such. For this pur­po­se, the data sub­ject must down­load a brow­ser add-on under the link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and install it. This brow­ser add-on tells Goog­le Ana­ly­tics through a Java­Script, that any data and infor­ma­ti­on about the visits of Inter­net pages may not be trans­mit­ted to Goog­le Ana­ly­tics. The instal­la­ti­on of the brow­ser add-ons is con­side­red an objec­tion by Goog­le. If the infor­ma­ti­on tech­no­lo­gy sys­tem of the data sub­ject is later dele­ted, for­mat­ted, or new­ly instal­led, then the data sub­ject must reinstall the brow­ser add-ons to disable Goog­le Ana­ly­tics. If the brow­ser add-on was unin­stal­led by the data sub­ject or any other per­son who is attri­bu­ta­ble to their sphe­re of com­pe­tence, or is dis­ab­led, it is pos­si­ble to exe­cu­te the reinstal­la­ti­on or reac­ti­va­ti­on of the brow­ser add-ons.

Fur­ther infor­ma­ti­on and the appli­ca­ble data pro­tec­tion pro­vi­si­ons of Goog­le may be retrie­ved under https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/ and under http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html. Goog­le Ana­ly­tics is fur­ther explai­ned under the fol­lo­wing Link https://www.google.com/analytics/.

  1. Legal basis for the pro­ces­sing

Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR ser­ves as the legal basis for pro­ces­sing ope­ra­ti­ons for which we obtain con­sent for a spe­ci­fic pro­ces­sing pur­po­se. If the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data is neces­sa­ry for the per­for­mance of a con­tract to which the data sub­ject is par­ty, as is the case, for exam­p­le, when pro­ces­sing ope­ra­ti­ons are neces­sa­ry for the sup­p­ly of goods or to pro­vi­de any other ser­vice, the pro­ces­sing is based on Artic­le 6(1) lit. b GDPR. The same appli­es to such pro­ces­sing ope­ra­ti­ons which are neces­sa­ry for car­ry­ing out pre-con­trac­tu­al mea­su­res, for exam­p­le in the case of inqui­ries con­cer­ning our pro­ducts or ser­vices. Is our com­pa­ny sub­ject to a legal obli­ga­ti­on by which pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data is requi­red, such as for the ful­fill­ment of tax obli­ga­ti­ons, the pro­ces­sing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data may be neces­sa­ry to pro­tect the vital inte­rests of the data sub­ject or of ano­ther natu­ral per­son. This would be the case, for exam­p­le, if a visi­tor were inju­red in our com­pa­ny and his name, age, health insu­rance data or other vital infor­ma­ti­on would have to be pas­sed on to a doc­tor, hos­pi­tal or other third par­ty. Then the pro­ces­sing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR. Final­ly, pro­ces­sing ope­ra­ti­ons could be based on Artic­le 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for pro­ces­sing ope­ra­ti­ons which are not cover­ed by any of the abo­ve­men­tio­ned legal grounds, if pro­ces­sing is neces­sa­ry for the pur­po­ses of the legi­ti­ma­te inte­rests pur­sued by our com­pa­ny or by a third par­ty, except whe­re such inte­rests are over­ridden by the inte­rests or fun­da­men­tal rights and free­doms of the data sub­ject which requi­re pro­tec­tion of per­so­nal data. Such pro­ces­sing ope­ra­ti­ons are par­ti­cu­lar­ly per­mis­si­ble becau­se they have been spe­ci­fi­cal­ly men­tio­ned by the Euro­pean legis­la­tor. He con­side­red that a legi­ti­ma­te inte­rest could be assu­med if the data sub­ject is a cli­ent of the con­trol­ler (Reci­tal 47 Sen­tence 2 GDPR).

  1. The legi­ti­ma­te inte­rests pur­sued by the con­trol­ler or by a third par­ty

Whe­re the pro­ces­sing of per­so­nal data is based on Artic­le 6(1) lit. f GDPR our legi­ti­ma­te inte­rest is to car­ry out our busi­ness in favor of the well-being of all our employees and the share­hol­ders.

  1. Peri­od for which the per­so­nal data will be stored

The cri­te­ria used to deter­mi­ne the peri­od of sto­rage of per­so­nal data is the respec­ti­ve sta­tu­to­ry reten­ti­on peri­od. After expi­ra­ti­on of that peri­od, the cor­re­spon­ding data is rou­ti­ne­ly dele­ted, as long as it is no lon­ger neces­sa­ry for the ful­fill­ment of the con­tract or the initia­ti­on of a con­tract.

  1. Pro­vi­si­on of per­so­nal data as sta­tu­to­ry or con­trac­tu­al requi­re­ment; Requi­re­ment neces­sa­ry to enter into a con­tract; Obli­ga­ti­on of the data sub­ject to pro­vi­de the per­so­nal data; pos­si­ble con­se­quen­ces of fail­ure to pro­vi­de such data

We cla­ri­fy that the pro­vi­si­on of per­so­nal data is part­ly requi­red by law (e.g. tax regu­la­ti­ons) or can also result from con­trac­tu­al pro­vi­si­ons (e.g. infor­ma­ti­on on the con­trac­tu­al part­ner). Some­ti­mes it may be neces­sa­ry to con­clude a con­tract that the data sub­ject pro­vi­des us with per­so­nal data, which must sub­se­quent­ly be pro­ces­sed by us. The data sub­ject is, for exam­p­le, obli­ged to pro­vi­de us with per­so­nal data when our com­pa­ny signs a con­tract with him or her. The non-pro­vi­si­on of the per­so­nal data would have the con­se­quence that the con­tract with the data sub­ject could not be con­cluded. Befo­re per­so­nal data is pro­vi­ded by the data sub­ject, the data sub­ject must cont­act any employee. The employee cla­ri­fies to the data sub­ject whe­ther the pro­vi­si­on of the per­so­nal data is requi­red by law or con­tract or is neces­sa­ry for the con­clu­si­on of the con­tract, whe­ther the­re is an obli­ga­ti­on to pro­vi­de the per­so­nal data and the con­se­quen­ces of non-pro­vi­si­on of the per­so­nal data.

  1. Exis­tence of auto­ma­ted decis­i­on-making

As a respon­si­ble com­pa­ny, we do not use auto­ma­tic decis­i­on-making or pro­fil­ing.

This Pri­va­cy Poli­cy has been gene­ra­ted by the Pri­va­cy Poli­cy Gene­ra­tor of the Exter­nal Data Pro­tec­tion Offi­cers that was deve­lo­ped in coope­ra­ti­on with the Media Law Lawy­ers from WBS-LAW.
