Insofar as your personal data are processed when you visit our website, you as the “data subject” have the following rights within the meaning of the GDPR:

information desk

You can request information from us as to whether we process your personal data. There is no right to information if the disclosure of the requested information would violate a duty of confidentiality or if the information must be kept secret for other reasons, in particular due to an overriding legitimate interest of a third party. Deviating from this, there may be an obligation to provide information if your interests outweigh the interests of confidentiality, especially taking into account impending damage. The right to information is also excluded if the data is only stored because it cannot be deleted due to statutory or statutory retention periods or only serves the purpose of data backup or data protection control, provided that providing information would require a disproportionate effort and processing for other purposes is excluded by suitable technical and organizational measures. If the right to information is not excluded in your case and your personal data is processed by us, you can request information from us about the following information:

Purposes of processing,
Categories of personal data processed by you,
Recipients or categories of recipients to whom your personal data are disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries,
if possible the planned duration for which your personal data will be stored or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining the storage period,
the existence of a right to correction or deletion or restriction of the processing of your personal data or a right to object to this processing,
the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority,
if the personal data has not been collected from you as the data subject, the available information about the origin of the data,
the existence of automated decision making including profiling and meaningful information about the logic involved as well as the scope and intended effects of automated decision making,

Correction and completion

If you find that we have incorrect personal data about you, you can request that we correct this incorrect data immediately. If your personal data is incomplete, you can request completion.

deletion

You have a right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") unless the processing is necessary to exercise the right to freedom of expression, the right to information or to fulfill a legal obligation or to perform a task that is in the public interest and one of the following reasons applies:

The personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were processed.
The basis of justification for the processing was exclusively your consent, which you have revoked.
You have objected to the processing of your personal data that we have made public.
You have objected to the processing of personal data not made public by us and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing.
Your personal data has been processed unlawfully.
The deletion of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which we are subject.

There is no entitlement to deletion if the deletion in the case of lawful non-automated data processing is not possible or only with disproportionately high effort due to the special type of storage and your interest in deletion is low. In this case, the deletion is replaced by the restriction of processing.

Restriction of processing

You can ask us to restrict processing if one of the following reasons applies:

You contest the accuracy of the personal data. In this case, the restriction can be requested for the duration that enables us to check the accuracy of the data.
The processing is unlawful and you request the restriction of the use of your personal data instead of deletion.
We are no longer required to process your personal data for the purposes of processing.
You have objection acc. Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR. The restriction of processing can be requested as long as it is not certain whether our legitimate reasons outweigh your reasons.

Restriction of processing means that the personal data are only processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest. Before we remove the restriction, we have a duty to let you know.

Data portability

You have the right to data portability if the processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 Clause 1 a) or Art. 9 Para. 2 a) GDPR) or on a contract to which you are a party and processing is carried out using automated processes. In this case, the right to data portability includes the following rights, provided this does not affect the rights and freedoms of other people: You can ask us to receive the personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, common and machine-readable format . You have the right to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance on our part. As far as technically feasible, you can request that we transfer your personal data directly to another person responsible.

Contradiction

If the processing is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 Letter e) GDPR (performing a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority) or on Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 Letter f) GDPR (legitimate interest of the person responsible or a third party), you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons that arise from your particular situation. This also applies to profiling based on Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 Letter e) or Letter f) GDPR. After exercising your right to object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

You can object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes at any time. This also applies to profiling associated with such direct marketing. After exercising this right to object, we will no longer use the personal data concerned for direct marketing purposes.

You have the option of informing the objection informally by phone, e-mail, if necessary by fax or to our company's postal address listed at the beginning of this data protection declaration.

Withdrawal of consent

You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with future effect. The revocation of consent can be communicated informally by phone, email, possibly by fax or to our postal address. The revocation does not affect the lawfulness of the data processing that took place based on the consent until the revocation is received. After receipt of the revocation, data processing based solely on your consent will be discontinued.

complaint

If you believe that the processing of your personal data is unlawful, you can lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority that is responsible for the place of your stay or place of work or the place of the alleged violation.
