II. General Information

1. Extent

In general, we process personal data of our users only to the extent required for providing a functional website, as well as our contents and services. The data is only processed with the user's consent. An exception exists in those cases where obtaining consent prior to the data processing is factually impossible and where the processing is permitted by law.

2. Legal Basis

Where a person has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data, article 6 paragraph 1 letter a of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.

Where processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the affected person is party or where it is necessary in order to take steps at the request of the affected person prior to entering into a contract, article 6 paragraph 1 letter b GDPR serves as the legal basis.

Where the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject, article 6 paragraph 1 letter c GDPR serves as the legal basis.

Where the processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the affected person or any other natural person, article 6 paragraph 1 letter d GDPR serves as the legal basis.

Where the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the site operator or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the affected person, article 6 paragraph 1 letter f GDPR serves as the legal basis.

3. Data Deletion and Duration of Retention

In general, personal data is only retained until the purpose of its storage ceases to exist. Moreover, the data will be deleted or blocked as soon as a retention period set by the national or transnational governmental body ends, except when further storage is required to settle or fulfill a contract.

III. Website Delivery and Creation of Log Files

1. Nature and Extent of Data Processing

For every request made to view our website, data and information will be collected automatically from the requesting device. The following data is collected:

The data is saved in our system's log files. The data is not saved in combination with any other personal data of the user, and we are unable to personally identify the user based on the above data.

2. Legal Basis

Article 6 paragraph 1 letter f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files.

3. Purpose of Data Collection

Temporarily saving the user's IP address is necessary for the delivery of website files to the user's device.

The data is stored inside system log files for the purposes of ensuring the website's functionality and availability. Additionally, we use the data for protection and optimization of our technical infrastructure. The data is not evaluated for marketing purposes.

4. Storage Duration

The data is deleted as soon as it has served its purpose. For the data that is collected for website delivery, this is the case when the respective session ends. For the data saved in log files, this is the case after a duration of, at most, seven days. Extended storage is possible; in this case, the entries will be anonymized by deletion or distortion of user IP addresses.

5. Objection and Data Removal

The collection of data for the delivery of the website and the storage of data in log files are absolutely necessary for the website's continued operation. Because of this, it is not possible for the user to object to the collection.

Our website contains a contact form that can be used for contacting us electronically. When a visitor decides to make use of this option, the data entered into the form will be transmitted to us and stored. The following information is collected:

Article 6 paragraph 1 letter a GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data with the user's consent.

Where data is processed as a result of the transmission of an email, article 6 paragraph 1 letter f GDPR serves as the legal basis. Additionally, where the email contact is made with the intention of entering into a contract, article 6 paragraph 1 letter b GDPR may serve as the legal basis.

3. Purpose of Data Collection

The processing of personal data that was entered into the contact form or sent via email is done for the sole purpose of handling the conversation.
