On this page we inform you about the processing of your personal data on the website.
How we collect and use your personal data depends on how you interact with us or which services you use. We only collect, use or share your personal data when we have a legitimate purpose and legal basis for doing so.
What do we mean by legal basis?
Consent (art. 6 para. 1 clause 1 lit. a GDPR) – You have given us your consent to process your personal data for the specific purpose we have explained to you. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. For more information on how you can withdraw your consent, please refer to the subsection “Exercising your rights” in the following sections of this Privacy Policy.
Contract (art. 6 para. 1 clause 1 lit. b GDPR) – We need to use your data to fulfill a contract you have with us. Alternatively, it is necessary to use your data because we have requested it from you or you have taken certain steps yourself before entering into this contract.
Legal obligation (art. 6 para. 1 clause 1 lit. c GDPR) – We must use your data to comply with the law.
Vital interests (art. 6 para. 1 clause 1 lit. d GDPR) – The processing of your data is necessary to protect your vital interests or those of another person— for example, to protect you from serious physical harm.
Public task
(art. 6 para. 1 clause 1 lit. e GDPR) – The processing of your data is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or because it is covered by a task defined by law, e.g. for a statutory function.
Legitimate interests (art. 6 para. 1 clause 1 lit. f GDPR) – The processing of your data is necessary to support a legitimate interest that we or another party have, providing your own interests do not override this.
Please note that we may not be able to provide you with our website services if your data is required to fulfill a contract or legal obligation and you do not provide the requested data.
Data sharing and international transfer
As explained in this Privacy Policy, we use various service providers to help us provide our services and keep your data secure. When we use these service providers, it is necessary for us to share your personal data with them.
We have concluded agreements with all service providers to whom we pass on your data, which oblige them to protect your data.
If your personal data is transferred outside the EU, we will ensure that your personal data receives an equivalent level of protection, either because the country to which your
data is transferred has an “adequate” standard of data protection according to the European Commission, or by applying another safeguard, such as an enhanced contractual arrangement, i.e. the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) adopted by the European Commission.
For example, when we use US service providers, we rely on either the SCCs or the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, depending on the provider. You can request a copy of the SCCs we have entered into with our service providers by sending an email to the email address provided in this Privacy Policy.
