Categories of data subjectsIn the following we will also refer to data subjects jointly as "users".
Purpose of processing
Pursuant to Art. 13 GDPR, we will inform you of the legal basis of our data processing. If the legal basis is not mentioned in the Privacy Policy, the following applies: The legal basis for obtaining consent is Art. 6 (1) a and Art. 7 GDPR, the legal basis for processing for the performance of our services and fulfillment of contractual measures as well as responding to requests is Art. 6 (1) b GDPR, the legal basis for processing to fulfill our legal obligations is Art. 6 (1) c GDPR, and the legal basis for processing to protect our legitimate interests is Art. 6 (1) f GDPR. In the event that the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make the processing of personal data necessary, Art. 6 (1) d GDPR is the legal basis.
We ask that you regularly keep yourself informed about the content of our Privacy Policy. We will adapt the Privacy Policy as soon as this becomes necessary due to changes to the data processing carried out by us. We will inform you as soon as the changes require your cooperation (e.g. consent) or other individual notification.
Where we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if this occurs in the context of the use of third-party services or disclosure/transfer of data to third parties, this will only take place in order to fulfill our (pre-)contractual obligations, on the basis of your consent, on the basis of a legal obligation or on the basis of our legitimate interests. Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we only process the data or have the data processed in a third country if the special requirements laid down in Art. 44 et seq. GDPR are met. This means that processing is carried out on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognized determination of a data protection level corresponding to the EU (e.g. for the USA through the "Privacy Shield") or compliance with officially recognized special contractual obligations (so-called "standard contractual clauses").
You have the right to withdraw consent that you have granted pursuant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR with future effect.
You may object to the future processing of your data pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR at any time. The objection may be lodged in particular against processing for direct advertising purposes.
