General Information on the Legal Basis for Data Processing on This Website
If you have given consent to the processing of your personal data, we process your data on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR if special categories of personal data are processed pursuant to Article 9(1) GDPR. In the case of an explicit consent to transfer personal data to third countries, data processing also takes place on the basis of Article 49(1)(a) GDPR.

Data processing may also take place on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The specific legal basis for each case is indicated in the following paragraphs of this Privacy Policy.
Recipients of Personal Data
As part of our business activities, we work with various external parties. In some cases, the transfer of personal data to these external parties is necessary. We only share personal data with external parties if this is required for contract fulfillment, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., disclosure to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in sharing the data pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits data transfer. When using processors, we only transfer customer personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a contract on joint processing is concluded.
Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may revoke any consent you have given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the point of revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to Object in Specific Cases and Against Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
If data processing is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The legal basis on which the processing is based can be found in this Privacy Policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or if processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR).
If your personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing purposes; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing.

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the member state of their habitual residence, place of work, or the location of the alleged infringement. This right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive the personal data we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract in a commonly used, machine-readable format, and you have the right to transmit this data to another controller, where technically feasible.
