III. General information on data processing
1. Scope of processing of personal data
As a matter of principle, we process personal data only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our contents and services. Where processing requires consent (in particular for analytics, marketing/retargeting, and embedded third-party content), processing takes place only after you have given your consent. In certain cases, processing may also be carried out on the basis of statutory permissions (e.g., legitimate interests or legal obligations).
2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data
- Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR – consent
- Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR – performance of a contract / pre-contractual measures
- Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR – legal obligation
- Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR – vital interests
- Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR – legitimate interests
3. Data deletion and storage duration
Personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage no longer applies. Data may be stored longer where this is required by European or national laws or where storage is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
4. Recipients, processors, and international transfers
We may use service providers acting as processors (Art. 28 GDPR), e.g., for hosting, security, analytics, marketing, and embedded content. Depending on the provider, personal data may be transferred to countries outside the EU/EEA (in particular the USA). Where required, transfers are based on appropriate safeguards (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses under Art. 46 GDPR) and supplementary measures.
5. Consent management and withdrawal
Where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future via our consent settings (cookie banner / privacy settings). Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
