Introduction In the following, we provide information about the processing of personal data when using our website faaren-group.com our profiles in social media. Personal data is all data that can be related to a specific natural person, e.g. their name or IP address. 1.1. Contact details Responsible acc. Art. 4 para. 7 EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is FAAREN GmbH, Leightonstraße 2, 97074 Würzburg, Germany, e-mail: [email protected]. We are legally represented by Daniel Garnitz, ppa. Maximilian Renoth. Our data protection officer is heyData GmbH, Schützenstr. 5, 10117 Berlin, www.heydata.eu, e-mail: [email protected]. 1.2. Scope of data processing, processing purposes and legal bases The scope of data processing, processing purposes and legal bases are explained in detail below. The legal basis for data processing is generally as follows: Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 it. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent. Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b GDPR is the legal basis insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract, e.g. if a site visitor purchases a product from us or we perform a service for them. This legal basis also applies to processing that is necessary for pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries about our products or services. Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. c GDPR applies if we fulfill a legal obligation by processing personal data, as may be the case in tax law, for example. Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis if we can rely on legitimate interests to process personal data, e.g. for cookies that are required for the technical operation of our website. 1.3. Data processing outside the EEA Insofar as we transfer data to service providers or other third parties outside the EEA, the security of the data during transfer is guaranteed by adequacy decisions of the EU Commission (Art. 45 para. 3 GDPR), if available (e.g. for Great Britain, Canada and Israel). If no adequacy decision exists (e.g. for the USA), the legal basis for data transfer is usually standard contractual clauses, i.e. unless we indicate otherwise. These are a set of rules adopted by the EU Commission and form part of the contract with the respective third party. According to Art. 46 para. 2 lit. b GDPR, they guarantee the security of data transfer. Many of the providers have issued contractual guarantees that go beyond the standard contractual clauses and protect the data beyond the standard contractual clauses. These are, for example, guarantees with regard to the encryption of data or with regard to the obligation of the third party to inform the data subject if law enforcement agencies wish to access data. 1.4. Storage duration Unless expressly stated in this privacy policy, the data stored by us will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for its intended purpose and the deletion does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations. If the data is not deleted because it is required for other and legally permissible purposes, its processing is restricted, i.e. the data is blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that we must retain for commercial or tax law reasons. 1.5. Rights of data subjects Data subjects have the following rights vis-à-vis us with regard to their personal data: Right to information, Right to rectification or erasure, Right to restriction of processing, Right to object to the processing, Right to data portability, Right to withdraw consent at any time. Data subjects also have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority about the processing of their personal data. Contact details of the data protection supervisory authorities can be found at https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Service/Anschriften/Laender/Laender-node.html. 1.6. Obligation to provide data In the context of a business relationship or other relationship, customers, interested parties or third parties only have to provide us with the personal data that is necessary for the establishment, implementation and termination of the business relationship or for the other relationship or that we are legally obliged to collect. Without this data, we will generally have to refuse to conclude a contract or provide a service or will no longer be able to perform an existing contract or other relationship. Mandatory information is marked as such. 1.7. No automated decision-making in individual cases In principle, we do not use fully automated decision-making in accordance with Article 22 GDPR to establish and implement a business relationship or other relationship. If we use these procedures in individual cases, we will inform you of this separately if this is required by law. 1.8. Contact us When contacting us, e.g. by e-mail or telephone, the data provided to us (e.g. names and e-mail addresses) will be stored by us in order to answer questions. The legal basis for the processing is our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR) in responding to inquiries addressed to us. We delete the data arising in this context after storage is no longer required, or restrict processing if there are statutory retention obligations. 1.9. Competitions We occasionally offer competitions via our website or in other ways. We process the data requested to determine and notify the winners. We then delete the data.
