General terms

Scope of Processing Personal Data:
We generally process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functioning website as well as our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users is usually based on the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible for factual reasons and the processing of data is permitted by law.

Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data:
If we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing personal data, Article 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis. When processing personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Article 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual measures. If the processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6(1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis. In the event that the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Article 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as the legal basis. If processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, and the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not override the first-mentioned interest, Article 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

Data Erasure and Storage Duration:
‍Personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Storage may take place beyond this if provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the controller is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.
