2. legal basis for the processing of personal data

Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations of personal data, Art. 6(1)(a) EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.

When processing personal data that is 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 operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures.

If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

You will find plugins of the social network Facebook on our website. The provider of this network is Facebook Inc. which is based in the USA, California 94025, 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park. The Facebook logo or the "Like" button on our site identifies the Facebook plugins for you. Please also note the overview of Facebook plugins at http://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.

This provides Facebook with the information that you have visited our website with your IP address. By clicking on the Facebook "Like" button, you link content from our website to your profile on Facebook. For Facebook, the visit to our site can be assigned to your user account.

XII. Google Ads

We use Google AdWords, an online advertising programme of Google Inc. on our website, which also uses conversion tracking. With this tool, Google AdWords sets a cookie on your PC when you come to our website via a Google advertisement. The cookie is no longer valid after 30 days. It does not serve any personal traceability. If you visit our website as a user and the cookie is still working, it will be recognisable to us together with Google that you clicked on the corresponding advertisement and were redirected to our site. A different cookie is assigned to each Google AdWords customer. Cookies are thus not traceable via the websites of AdWords customers. Conversion statistics for AdWords customers are created with the data collected through conversion cookies. As customers, we thus learn the total number of users who responded to our ad and were then redirected to a website that was tagged with a conversion tracking tag. We do not receive any information during this process with which we could personally identify you as a user. If you reject the tracking procedure, the Google conversion tracking cookie can be deactivated via your internet browser. If necessary, use the browser's help function for further information. You can find out more about Google's privacy policy at http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

Further, by completing an order, the customer agrees to their data being forwarded in a hashed state. Google Inc. compares these data with previously collected information and may use it for advertising within the Google advertising network(s). Google undertakes to treat these data confidentially and store them safely.

We use the web analysis service Google Analytics from Google Inc. on our website, which uses cookies. These are text files that are stored on your PC and allow an analysis of your user behaviour in relation to our website. The cookies generate information that is transferred to a Google server. These servers are usually located in the USA but follow agreements on the use of the European Economic Area and shorten your IP address before transmission to the United States. Only in exceptional cases will the IP address only be shortened after transmission to the USA. Google evaluates the transmitted information and provides further services for us website operators in this context. The IP address determined is not merged with other Google services. You can prevent cookies from being stored on your computer by changing your browser settings. However, this may result in display and functional restrictions when using our website.

Cookies are set on your computer for this purpose. These are text files that recognise users when they call up pages and thus enable interest-based advertising throughout the Google network. Google denies the collection of personal data in this context and, according to its own information, does not establish any connections to other Google services. You can prevent Google's remarketing function by making the appropriate settings at http://www.google.com/settings/ads. Furthermore, the use of cookies can be deactivated via http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp or by changing the settings in your browser. If necessary, use its help function.

The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

7. Right to object

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you, which is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

The controller shall no longer process the personal data concerning you unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.

If the personal data concerning you is processed for the purposes of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purposes of such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing.

If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.

You have the possibility, in connection with the use of information society services, notwithstanding directive 2002/58/EC, to exercise your right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

8. Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law

You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of the consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.

9 Automated decision-making in individual cases, including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing - including profiling - which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision

(1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the controller,

(2) is permissible on the basis of legal provisions of the Union or the Member States to which the controller is subject, and these legal provisions contain appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests; or

(3) is made with your express consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Article 9(1) of the GDPR, unless Article 9(2)(a) or (g) of the GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.

With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall take reasonable steps to safeguard the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to contest the decision.

10. Right to complain to a supervisory authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR.

The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Article 78 GDPR.
