Purposes of data processing

The scope and nature of the collection, processing and use of your data differs depending on whether you visit our website merely to access generally available information or to make use of additional services. In principle, we process your personal data within the scope of our business activities for pre-contractual or contractual purposes. In addition, the exercise of our legitimate interest or compliance with legal requirements may also be the substantive purpose of data processing by us. We will inform you about the specific purposes of data processing in the following sections.

Legal basis for data processing

We process your personal data according to the following legal bases:

  • To fulfil pre-contractual or contractual obligations (section 6 sub-section 1b GDPR).
  • Based on your consent (section 6 sub-section 1a GDPR)
  • Within the framework of a balancing of interests (section 6 sub-section 1f GDPR)
  • Due to legal requirements (section 6 sub-section 1c GDPR)

We will inform you about the specific legal basis for data processing in our respective processing procedures.

Right of objection

If we process your personal data within the framework of a balancing of interests due to our overriding legitimate interest (legal basis for data processing is section 1 f) GDPR), you have the right to object to this processing at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. If you exercise your right to object, we will stop processing the data concerned. However, we reserve the right to continue processing (with the exception of direct advertising; in this case we will comply with your object immediately) if we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the processing serves the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims. Further-reaching rights of persons affected remain unaffected.

Use of our website for information purposes

For a purely informational use of our website, it is generally not necessary for you to provide personal data. Rather, in this case, when you call up our website, we only record the data that your internet browser automatically transmits to us, such as:

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • Device type used
  • Time of access
  • IP address in anonymised form
  • other similar data and information which serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

This is usually done through the use of log files. The purpose of the processing is to ensure the functionality and compatibility of our website for technically unproblematic use, including troubleshooting, as well as protection against technical attacks and misuse of the use. The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest according to subject 6 sub-section 1 f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the proper operation of our website. The log file data is deleted when it is no longer required for the purpose of processing.
