We use the following terms, among others, in this privacy policy:
(1) Personal data

4. legal basis for processing
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR (in conjunction with. § Section 25 para. 1 TDDDG (formerly TTDSG)) serves our company as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for a delivery of goods or the provision of another service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation by which a processing of personal data is required, such as for compliance with tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data might become necessary to protect vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were to be injured on our premises and as a result his or her name, age, health insurance data or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d) DS-GVO are based. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DS-GVO are based. Processing operations not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject are not overridden. Such processing operations are permitted to us in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, he took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if you are a customer of our company (recital 47 sentence 2 DS-GVO). Our offer is generally aimed at adults. Persons under the age of 16 may not transmit any personal data to us without the consent of their parents or legal guardians. We do not request personal data from children and young people, do not collect it and do not pass it on to third parties.

(2) the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR to safeguard our legitimate interests and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in the non-disclosure of your data,
(3) in the event that the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR, and (4) this is legally permissible and in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR is required for the processing of contractual relationships with you. In order to protect your data and to enable us to transfer data to third countries (outside the EU/EEA) if necessary, we have concluded data processing agreements based on the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses. If the standard contractual clauses are not sufficient to establish an adequate level of security, your consent may be revoked in accordance with Art. 49 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR serve as the legal basis for the transfer to third countries.
