3. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

3.1. Processing of personal data according to the GDPR

We only process your personal data such as your first and last name, your email address and IP address, etc. if there is a legal basis for doing so. According to the General Data Protection Regulation, the following regulations in particular apply:

• Art. 6 ( 1 ) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR: The data subject has given his or her consent to the processing of personal data concerning him or her for one or more specific purposes.

• Art. 6 ( 1 ) sentence 1 lit. b GDPR: The processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract.

• Art. 6 ( 1 ) sentence 1 lit. c GDPR: The processing is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which the controller is subject

• Art. 6 ( 1 ) sentence 1 lit. d GDPR: Processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person

• Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. e GDPR: the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller

• Art. 6 ( 1 ) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR: the processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of the controller or of a third party, unless the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data prevail, in particular if the data subject is a child

However, we will always point out to you at the respective points in this data protection declaration the legal basis on which the processing of your personal data takes place.

3.2. Processing of information according to Section 25 Para.1 TTDSG

We also process information in accordance with Section 25 Paragraph 1 TTDSG by storing information on your terminal equipment or accessing information that is already stored in your terminal equipment. This can include both personal information and non-personal data, e.g. cookies, browser fingerprints, advertising IDs, MAC addresses and IMEI numbers. Terminal equipment is any device that is directly or indirectly connected to the interface of a public telecommunications network for sending, processing or receiving messages, Section 2 Paragraph 2 No. 6 TTDSG.

We generally process this information based on your consent, Section 25 Para.1 TTDSG.

If an exception applies according to Section 25 Paragraph 2 No. 1 and No. 2 TTDSG, we do not require your consent. Such an exception applies if we only access or store the information in order to transmit a message via a public telecommunications network or if this is absolutely necessary so that we can provide a telemedia service that you have expressly requested. You can revoke your consent at any time.

We would like to inform you that the revocation of your consent will not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent until the revocation.

4. Disclosure of personal data

The passing on of personal data also constitutes processing within the meaning of the previous section 3. However, we would like to inform you separately at this point about the issue of passing on data to third parties. The protection of your personal data is very important to us. For this reason, we are particularly careful when it comes to passing on your data to third parties.

Data will therefore only be passed on to third parties if there is a legal basis for the processing. For example, we pass on personal data to people or companies who work for us as processors in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. A processor is anyone who processes personal data on our behalf - in particular in a relationship of instruction and control with us.

In accordance with the requirements of the GDPR, we conclude a contract with each of our processors to oblige them to comply with data protection regulations and thus provide your data with comprehensive protection.

5. Storage period and deletion

We will delete your personal data if it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed, if the processing is not necessary to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information, to fulfill a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

6. SSL encryption

This website uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as the requests you send to us as the website operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL encryption is activated, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.
