VII. General information on data processing
1. scope of the processing of personal data
As a matter of principle, we process personal data of our users only insofar as this is necessary for the provision of a functional website as well as our contents and services. The processing of personal data of our users is regularly only carried out with the consent of the user. An exception applies in those cases in which it is not possible to obtain prior consent for actual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by legal regulations.

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations of personal data,Article 6 (1) lit. a of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO)serves as the legal basis. When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1) (b) DSGVO serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures. Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) c DSGVO serves as the legal basis. In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make processing of personal data necessary, Art. 6 (1) (d) DSGVO serves as the legal basis. If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO serves as the legal basis for the processing.

3. Data deletion and storage period
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage no longer applies.Storage may take place beyond this if this has been provided for by theEuropean or national legislator in Union regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for the continued storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

VIII. Webanalysis by other providers
Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties unless
- we have explicitly indicated this in the description of the respective data processing.
- if you have given your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a DSGVO,
- the disclosure in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1Sentence 1 lit. f DSGVO is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in the non-disclosure of your data,
- in the event that a legal obligation exists for the disclosure in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. c DSGVO and
- if this is necessary for the processing of contractual relationships with you according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. bDSGVO.

In addition, we use external service providers for the processing of our services, which we have carefully selected, commissioned in writing and with whom we have concluded order processing agreements in accordance with Art. 28 DSGVO, if necessary.They are bound by our instructions and are regularly monitored by us. These are service providers for web hosting, sending e-mails and maintenance and care of our IT systems, etc. The service providers will not pass this data on to third parties.
