Which of your data do we process? And for what purposes?

If we have received data from you, we will only process it for the purposes for which we received or collected it.

Data processing for other purposes will only be considered if the necessary legal requirements pursuant to Art. 6 (4) GDPR are met. In this case, we will of course comply with any information obligations pursuant to Art. 13 (3) GDPR and Art. 14 (4) GDPR.

If you instruct us/we instruct you, we collect the following information:

  • Salutation, title, first name, last name
  • Address
  • E-mail address
  • Telephone number (landline and/or mobile)
  • Fax number (if available & requested)
  • Account details

In addition, all information necessary to fulfil the contract with you will be collected.

The collection of personal data takes place,

  • to be able to identify you as a customer/supplier/service provider;
  • to be able to advise you appropriately;
  • to be able to fulfill our contractual obligations towards you;
  • in order to fulfill our legal obligations;
  • for correspondence with you;
  • for invoicing or, if applicable, in the context of the dunning process;
  • for the purposes of permissible direct advertising;
  • to assert any claims against you.

What is the legal basis for this?

The legal basis for the processing of personal data is generally - unless there are specific legal provisions - Art. 6 GDPR. The following possibilities in particular come into consideration here:

  • Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR)
  • Data processing for the performance of contracts (Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR)
  • Data processing on the basis of a balancing of interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR)
  • Data processing to fulfill a legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR)

If personal data is processed on the basis of your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent from us at any time with effect for the future.

If we process data on the basis of a balancing of interests, you as the data subject have the right to object to the processing of personal data, taking into account the provisions of Art. 21 GDPR.

How long will the data be stored?

We process the data for as long as this is necessary for the respective purpose. Insofar as statutory retention obligations exist - e.g. under commercial law or tax law - the personal data concerned will be stored for the duration of the retention obligation. Once the retention obligation has expired, we will check whether there is any further need for processing. If it is no longer necessary, the data will be deleted.

At the end of a calendar year, we generally review data with regard to the need for further processing. Due to the volume of data, this review is carried out with regard to specific data types or purposes of processing.

Of course, you can request information about the personal data we have stored about you at any time (see below) and, if it is not necessary, request that the data be deleted or that processing be restricted.

To which recipients is the data forwarded?

Your personal or individual-related data will only be passed on if

  • you have expressly given us your consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1a) GDPR,
  • this is necessary pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1b) GDPR for the processing or fulfillment of our obligations arising from a contract with you,
  • we are obliged to do so in accordance with the provision of Art. 6 sentence 1c) GDPR,
  • the disclosure is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1f) GDPR). The prerequisite is that there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in the non-disclosure of your data.

Where is the data processed?

In principle, your data is processed in Germany and in other countries within the EU. If your personal data is processed in a country outside the EU or if recipients of your personal data are located outside the EU in which the level of data protection may not correspond to that of the EU, the following applies: we ensure that only those countries are involved for which the EU Commission has decided that they have an adequate level of data protection. In cases where the level of data protection in the recipient country is not comparable to that of the EU, we comply with the requirements developed by the EU and use so-called standard contractual clauses. These are available on request via one of the contact options listed above.

Your rights as a data subject

You have rights vis-à-vis us with regard to your personal data:

You have the right to Information about the personal data concerning you. You can contact us at any time for information.

In the case of a request for information that is not made in writing, we ask for your understanding that we may require proof from you that you are the person you claim to be.

Furthermore, you have a right to rectification or erasure or to restriction of processing, insofar as you are legally entitled to do so.

You can revoke any consent you may have given us at any time. The consequence of this is that we may no longer continue the data processing based on this consent in the future. If you wish to make use of your right of revocation, you can inform us by e-mail.

Right of objection

Insofar as we process personal data as explained above in order to safeguard our legitimate interests, which predominate in the context of a balancing of interests, you can object to this processing with effect for the future:

  • If the processing is carried out for direct marketing purposes, you can exercise this right at any time.
  • If the processing is carried out for other purposes, you only have the right to object on grounds relating to your particular situation.

After exercising your right to object, we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims. 

This does not apply if the processing is for direct marketing purposes. In this case, we will no longer process your personal data for this purpose.

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

You have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority about the processing of personal data by us.

Automated decision-making, implementation of profiling

In principle, we do not use exclusively automated decision-making within the meaning of Art. 22 GDPR to establish and conduct the business relationship.
