The legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 (1) lit. f of the GDPR, whereby the legitimate interest of the person responsible is the secure, stable, efficient provision of the functions of the website and the information available about it. If, by providing the website, the controller fulfils a contractual obligation towards you, the legal basis for this is is Art. 6 (1) lit. b of the GDPR.

Processing of personal data when prompted

In addition to the purely informational use of our offers, you can send us questions, orders or other information relating to our offers and services, existing contractual relationships or our company. To do this, you generally have to provide further personal data that we process to execute your request, to answer your inquiries, to fulfil contracts concluded with you, to assert and implement our claims and, if necessary, to respond to your complaint. In addition, we process personal data, insofar as we are required to do so, in order to fulfil our legal obligations, for example in order to meet our tax or commercial law documentation and retention obligations.
When you contact us via email or a contact form, we store the data you have provided (in particular, your email address, your name and telephone number, as well as your request or message), in order to answer your questions and process your requests. We delete the data arising in this context after storage is no longer necessary, or processing is restricted if statutory retention obligations exist.
The legal basis for the processing of your data for the newsletter is Art. 6 (1) lit. a of the GDPR if the user has given consent. If the processing serves the fulfilment of a contract to which the data subject is a party or the implementation of pre-contractual measures, the legal basis for the processing of the data is Art. 6 (1) lit. b of the GDPR. If we process personal data in order to process non-contractual concerns or inquiries, we do this for the purpose of optimal and efficient communication with you, to improve our offers and customer service, to maintain and optimise existing customer relationships and, if necessary, to clarify and correct technical issues.
Our legitimate interests exist in the aforementioned purposes within the meaning of the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f of the GDPR.

In these cases, however, the amount of data transmitted is limited to the minimum necessary. A use for another purpose or a transfer of data to third parties does not take place or only to the extent informed about it.
