Data protection

Data protection declaration

We thank you for visiting our website. The safer handling of your data is particularly important to us. We would therefore like to inform you in detail about the use of your data when you visit our website.

We review this data protection declaration at regular intervals. From time to time, we may be required to make changes to this privacy policy or add new provisions that will affect the way we handle your information. If there are any changes to the Privacy Policy, we will include notices on this page and you will find the latest version on this page.


Legal basis for processing

Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter a GDPR 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 the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of any other service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 Paragraph S. 1 Letter b GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data, such as to fulfill tax obligations, the processing is based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data could be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person, Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter d GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could also be based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f of the GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the above-mentioned 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 do not prevail.
