3. Personal Data

Personal data refers to all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ("data subject"). An identifiable natural person is a data subject who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by association with an identifier. An identifier may be, for example, a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, the IP address or other specific features that are the expression of the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person (hereinafter collectively referred to as "data").

4. Data processing by us

In general, we process your data in accordance with the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and other applicable data protection regulations. Processing only takes place to the extent necessary and that is permitted according to data protection law, for example for the fulfilment of contractual purposes, for the protection of our legitimate interests, for the fulfilment of legal requirements or insofar as you consent to the data processing. The specific nature and extent of the data processing and the corresponding legal bases can be found in the sections "B: Data processing when visiting our website" and "C: Data processing not related to website use".

5. Data recipients

In general, only those internal departments or organisational units as well as other companies affiliated with us shall receive your data, insofar as this is necessary for the fulfilment of our contractual and legal obligations or if said data is required in the course of processing and implementing our legitimate interests.

Your data may be transferred to external recipients in connection with contract processing, provided that we are obliged to fulfil legal requirements for information, notification or disclosure of data, you have granted us your consent for the transfer to third parties or to external service providers that render services on behalf of us as data processors or assume functions for us on behalf of us (for example IT service provider, the service provider we use when using our online application portal, data centres, data shredders or courier services). For the sections "B: Data processing when visiting our website" and "C: Data processing not related to website use" you can find case-specific examples of data recipients.

6. Third country transfer

In the course of the matrix structure of our Group, your data will also be processed within our Group companies that are based in third countries, meaning in countries outside the European Economic Area. These data transfers are covered by an adequacy decision of the European Commission (Article 45 GDPR). Where this is not the case, e.g. when it comes to transfers to the USA, the data transfers are especially based on standard data protection clauses/standard contractual clauses in line with the templates adopted by the European Commission (Article 46 Para. 2 lit. c, Para. 5 S. 2 GDPR) or by an exemption according to Article 49 GDPR.

The same applies to external service providers who work on behalf of us (for example IT service providers or data centres) or third parties, insofar as they come into contact with your personal data and are based in third countries. This means that we transfer your IP address, for example, as part of the use of the OneTrust and Google Analytics tools, or your shortened IP address to countries outside the European Union, among others in the USA.

Otherwise, we do not transfer your personal data to countries outside the EU or the EEA or to international organisations. 

Upon request, we will gladly provide you with appropriate detailed information.

7. Data deletion and storage duration

For the purely informational use of our website, we store your data in accordance with the regulations in Section B.1.1.

If you actively use our website or in the event of data processing not related to website use, we will store your data for as long as is required, for example, for the provision of the respective service, for example the implementation of the application process. If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, we will store your data until the consent is withdrawn. For details, please refer to the regulations in Section B.1.2 or Section C.

In addition, we will always store your personal data until the expiration of the limitation period of any legal claims arising from the relationship with you, if necessary, in order to use it as means of evidence. The limitation period is usually between 12 and 36 months. Once the limitation period has expired, we will delete your personal data, unless there is a statutory storage obligation, for example, deriving from the German Commercial Code (Sections 238, 257 Para. 4 HGB) or from the Tax Code (Section 147 Para. 3, 4 AO). These storage requirements can last between two and ten years.

8. Your rights as a data subject

You may exercise your rights listed hereafter at any time, towards the body that is designated under Section A.1.

8.1 Right to information

Within the framework of Article 15 GDPR, you are entitled to request information free of charge and at any time regarding the data that is processed by us, the processing purposes, the categories of recipients, the planned storage period or, in the case of third-country transfers, the appropriate guarantees. You are also entitled to receive a copy of your data.

8.2 Right to rectification, deletion, restriction of processing

If your data  processed by us is incorrect, incomplete or their processing is inadmissible, you may ask us to correct your data, to supplement it, restrict processing or to delete the data to the extent permitted by law, according to Article 16, 17 and 18 GDPR.
The right to deletion does not exist, among other reasons, if the processing of personal data is required for (i) the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, (ii) the fulfilment of a legal obligation to which we are subject (for example statutory storage obligations) or (iii) enforcement, exercise or defence of legal claims.

8.3 Right to data portability

If you provide us with your data based on your consent or contractual relationship with us, upon request we will provide you with that data in a structured, current and machine-readable format or, if technically possible, submit the data to a third party that you have appointed. 

8.4 Right of objection

If we process your data on the basis of a legitimate interest, you can object to this processing for reasons that arise from your particular situation, according to Article 21 GDPR. The right of objection only exists within the limits provided for in Article 21 GDPR. In addition, our interests may preclude termination of processing, so we may, despite your opposition, still be entitled to process your personal data. 

8.5 Right of appeal

If you have any questions, suggestions or criticism, please feel free to contact our Data Protection Officer (see Section A.2).

You are also entitled, under the provisions of Article 77 GDPR, to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of your place of residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged breach, if you believe that the processing of data concerning you violates the GDPR. The right of appeal is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

The competent supervisory authority for us is:

In principle, you are not obliged to provide us with your data.

10. Automated decision making/profiling

We do not use an automated decision making process. We may partially process your information with the goal of evaluating certain personal aspects (profiling). In particular, we may use evaluation tools to provide you with targeted information and advice on products. These enable needs-based communication and advertising.

11. Consent/withdrawal rights

In the event that you give or have granted us consent for the collection, processing or use of your data, you may withdraw this consent at any time, with future effect, by notifying  the body appointed in Section A.1. An e-mail is sufficient.

You also have the right, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of data concerning you by us, pursuant to Article 6 Para. 1 lit. e GDPR (exercise of a task in the public interest) or Article 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest of the person in charge); this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. In this case, we no longer process data about you, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing the data that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is intended to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

If the data about you is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of this data for the purpose of such advertising. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, that data will no longer be processed for these purposes.
