2. Principles of processing personal data

All information that relates to a natural person or are obtainable and thereby allow conclusions about the personality of a natural person are personal data. Personal information includes, but is not limited to, general personal information (e.g. name, age, place of birth, date of birth, marital status, address, phone number etc.), online information (e.g. e-mail address, IP-address, location data, user behavior data etc.) and other personal or personally identifiable information. No personal data is information (e.g. anonymised data) in which no or only with a disproportionate effort a relation to a person can be produced. For the processing of personal data a personal consent or a legal basis is necessary. The definition of “processing of personal data” covers, e.g. these include, collecting the data, querying the data, using the data, storing the data, transmitting and sharing the data. The deletion of personal data that has been processed takes place when the purpose of the data processing for which it was collected has been achieved, and where there are no longer any legally required retention requirements.

Provided that the processing of personal data is required for the provision of some offers on our website, we will inform you in the following about the concrete processes, the purpose and extent of the data processing and the storage duration of the respective data.

3. Processing operations

The provision of a website requires the processing of the above data. The legal basis for the aforementioned data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

The above data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to display the website. For the provision and operation of the website, the storage of the above-mentioned data in the so-called server log files is absolutely necessary. Therefore, there is no possibility of objection on the part of the user. In individual cases, further storage may take place if required by law.

The stored access data (so-called server log files) are used for the identification and tracking of unauthorized access attempts and accesses to the web server and are only kept for a longer period of time for further legal steps in this case. Furthermore, access data is only evaluated for statistical purposes and then in anonymous form.

The providers (hereafter referred to as “third-party providers”) thus perceive the IP-address of the respective user.

Although we endeavor to use only third-party providers vendors who only need the IP-address to deliver content, we have no control over whether the IP-address may be stored. This process is used in the case, inter alia, statistical purposes. If we know that the IP-address will be stored, we will inform our users.
