Personal data includes all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. We generally collect and use personal data from our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and to present and offer our content and services. The collection and use of personal data takes place only with the user’s consent. An exception applies in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible and the processing is permitted by legal provisions.

  • If we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
  • For the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing necessary for pre-contractual measures.
  • If processing personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject, Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR applies.
