Type and place of data processing
Processing methods
The provider processes the user data in a proper manner and takes appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorised access and unauthorised forwarding, modification or destruction of data. Data processing is carried out by means of computers or IT-based systems in accordance with organisational procedures and practices that are specifically geared to the stated purposes. In addition to the data controller, other persons could also operate this website and have access to the data, either internally (personnel management, sales, marketing, legal department, system administrators) or externally - and in the case of the latter, to the extent necessary, designated by the data controller as processors (such as providers of technical services, delivery companies, hosting providers, IT companies or communication agencies). An up-to-date list of these parties can be requested from the provider at any time.
Legal basis of the processing
The provider may only process personal data of users if one of the following points applies:
Users have willingly provided consent for one or more specific purposes. It is important to note that in certain jurisdictions, the provider may have the ability to process personal data until the user objects to such processing ("opt-out") without relying on consent or any other legal basis. However, this exception does not apply if the processing of personal data is subject to European data protection law. In such cases, the collection of data is necessary to fulfill a contract with the user and/or for pre-contractual measures resulting from it. Additionally, data processing may be required to fulfill a legal obligation, to carry out a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority, or to protect the legitimate interests of the provider or a third party.
In any case, the provider will gladly provide information about the specific legal basis on which the processing is based, in particular whether the provision of personal data is a legal or contractual obligation or a prerequisite for the conclusion of a contract.
Place
The data are processed at the provider's premises and at all other places where the parties involved in the data processing are located.
Depending on the location of the user, data transfers may involve the transfer of the user's data to a country other than the user's own. To find out more about the place where the transferred data is processed, users can consult the section containing detailed information on the processing of personal data.
Users also have the right to be informed of the legal basis for the transfer of data to a country outside the European Union or to an international organisation governed by international law or established by two or more countries, such as the UN, as well as of the security measures taken by the provider to protect their data.
If such a transmission takes place, the user can learn more about it by checking the relevant sections of this document or by contacting the provider using the information provided in the contact section.
