Disclosure of personal data to third parties and processors

We will never pass on any data to third parties without your consent. If this is the case, then the transfer takes place on the basis of the aforementioned legal basis, e.g. when data is passed on to online payment providers for the purpose of fulfilling the contract or on the basis of a court order or due to a legal obligation to disclose the data for the purposes of law enforcement, to avert danger or to enforce intellectual property rights.
We also use processors (external service providers, e.g. for web hosting of our websites and databases) to process your data. If data is passed on to the processor in the context of an order processing agreement, this is always done in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. We carefully select our processors, check them regularly and have given us the right to issue instructions regarding the data. In addition, the processors must have taken appropriate technical and organizational measures and the data protection regulations in accordance with BDSG n.F. and comply with GDPR

Data transfer to third countries

The adoption of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) created a uniform basis for data protection in Europe. Your data is therefore mainly processed by companies for which GDPR applies. If processing by third parties takes place outside the European Union or the European Economic Area, they must meet the special requirements of Art. 44 ff. GDPR. This means that the processing takes place on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognized determination of a data protection level corresponding to the EU or the observance of officially recognized special contractual obligations, the so-called “standard contractual clauses”. For US companies, submission to the so-called “Privacy Shield”, the data protection agreement between the EU and the USA, meets these requirements.

Deletion of data and storage period

Unless expressly stated in this data protection declaration, your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for the storage ceases to exist, unless their further storage is necessary for evidence purposes or if this is contrary to statutory retention obligations. This includes, for example, commercial law retention requirements for business letters in accordance with Section 257 (1) HGB (6 years) and tax retention requirements in accordance with Section 147 (1) AO for documents (10 years). If the prescribed retention period expires, your data will be blocked or deleted, unless the storage is still necessary for the conclusion of a contract or for the fulfillment of the contract.
