II. GENERAL INFORMATION ON DATA PROCESSING
- SCOPE OF PERSONAL DATA PROCESSING
As a matter of principle, we only process personal data of our users to the extent necessary to provide a functioning website and our services. The collection and processing of personal data of our users takes place exclusively for the purposes to which we are entitled and for as long as the data is required for these purposes and generally only 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.
- LEGAL BASIS FOR PERSONAL DATA PROCESSING
Where we obtain any consent from the data subject for methods of personal data processing, Art. 6 (1) lit. a and Art. 7 GDPR serve as a legal basis for personal data processing. If processing personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR serves as a legal basis. This also applies to processing methods required to take steps prior to entering into a contract.
Where personal data processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which us is subject, Art. 6 (1) lit c GDPR serves as a legal basis.
If processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person, Art. 6 (1) lit. (d) GDPR serves as legal basis.
If processing is necessary for the purposes of any legitimate interest pursued by us or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms, then Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.
- DELETION OF DATA AND STORAGE PERIOD
The data subject’s personal data will be deleted or blocked once the purpose of such storage ceases to be relevant. In addition, the data can be stored if this has been provided for by European or national legislators in Union law regulations, laws or other legislation by which the controller is governed. The data shall also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless it is necessary to further store the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.
III. PROVISION OF THE WEBSITE AND CREATION OF LOG FILES
- DESCRIPTION AND SCOPE OF DATA PROCESSING
Any time that our internet pages are called-up, the server automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer.
The following data will be collected:
(1) the IP address of the user
(2) date and time of Access
(3) regional origin, language
(4) the requested file or URL
(5) browser and operating system
The data will also be stored in the log files of our system. This does not affect the IP addresses of the user or other data which allow for attribution of the data to a user. This data will not be stored together with other personal data of the user.
- LEGAL BASIS FOR DATA PROCESSING
The legal basis for temporary data retention is Art. 6 (1) lit f GDPR.
- PURPOSE OF DATA PROCESSING
It is necessary for the system to temporarily store the IP address, to allow the website to be delivered to the computer of the user. To this end, the IP address of the user must remain stored. Such purposes are also the basis for our legitimate interest in data processing according to lit. (f) of Art. 6 (1) GDPR.
- DURATION OF STORAGE
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose of its collection. In the case of collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the relevant session ends.
- OPTION OF OBJECTION AND ELIMINATION
The collection of data is necessary for the provision of the website, and storage of the data in log files is necessary for the operation of the website. Consequently, the user has no option to object.
