a. The personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
b. The data subject withdraws consent on which the processing is based according to point (a) of Article 6(1) or point (a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR, and where there is no other legal ground for the processing.

The right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”) does not exist if processing is necessary:
1.) to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information;
2.) to fulfill a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or to perform a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;

a. the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR and
b. the processing is carried out using automated procedures.
When exercising the right to data portability pursuant to paragraph 1, you have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.
In connection with the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right of objection by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.
You have the right to object to the processing of personal data concerning you for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1), unless the processing is necessary to perform a task carried out in the public interest, for reasons related to your particular situation.
You can exercise your right of objection at any time by contacting the respective person responsible.

(9) Automated decisions in individual cases, including profiling (8) Right of objection

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

is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller,
is permitted by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, and this law contains appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, or
with the express consent of the data subject.
The controller shall take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to contest the decision.

§13 Use of Google Analytics 

(1) This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website is generally transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymization is activated, your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The full IP address will only be transferred to a Google server in the USA and used there if you expressly consent to the use of cookies for marketing purposes in the pop-up window. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website activity and internet usage.

(2) The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data held by Google.

(3) You can prevent cookies from being saved by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser software; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link:  http:/ /tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

(4) This website uses Google Analytics with the extension “_anonymizeIp()”. This means that IP addresses are processed in a shortened form, which means that they cannot be linked to a person. If the data collected about you is personally identifiable, this will be immediately excluded and the personal data will be deleted immediately.

(5) We use Google Analytics to analyze the use of our website and to regularly improve it. Using the statistics obtained, we can improve our offering and make it more interesting for you as a user. For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the USA, Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield,  https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.  The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6 Para. 1 Clause 1 Letter f of GDPR.

(6) Third-party information: Google Dublin, Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Fax: +353 (1) 436 1001. Terms of use:

http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html,  overview of data protection:  http://www.google.com/intl/de/analytics/learn/privacy.html,  and the privacy policy:  http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

(7) This website also uses Google Analytics for a cross-device analysis of visitor flows, which is carried out via a user ID. You can deactivate the cross-device analysis of your usage in your customer account under “My data”, “Personal data”.

§14 Use of social media plugins 

(1) This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and that enable an analysis of your use of the website. (1) We currently use the following social media plug-ins: [Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube]. We use the so-called two-click solution. This means that when you visit our site, no personal data is initially passed on to the plug-in providers. You can recognize the plug-in provider by the marking on the box above its initial letter or logo. We give you the opportunity to communicate directly with the plug-in provider via the button. Only if you click on the marked field and thereby activate it, the plug-in provider receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding website of our online offering. In addition, the data specified under Section 5 of this declaration is transmitted. In the case of Facebook and Xing, according to the information provided by the respective providers in Germany, the IP address is anonymized immediately after collection. By activating the plug-in, your personal data will be transmitted to the respective plug-in provider and stored there (in the USA for US providers). Since the plug-in provider collects data primarily via cookies, we recommend that you delete all cookies via the security settings of your browser before clicking on the grayed-out box. 

(2) We have no influence on the data collected and data processing procedures, nor are we aware of the full extent of the data collection, the purposes of the processing, or the storage periods. We also have no information on the deletion of the data collected by the plug-in provider.

 

(3) The plug-in provider stores the data collected about you as user profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or needs-based design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (also for users who are not logged in) to display needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, although you must contact the respective plug-in provider to exercise this right. We use the plug-ins to offer you the opportunity to interact with social networks and other users so that we can improve our offering and make it more interesting for you as a user. The legal basis for the use of the plug-ins is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Clause 1 Letter f of GDPR.

 

(4) The data is passed on regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and are logged in there. If you are logged in with the plug-in provider, the data we collect will be assigned directly to your existing account with the plug-in provider. If you click the activated button and, for example, link the page, the plug-in provider also saves this information in your user account and shares it publicly with your contacts. We recommend that you log out regularly after using a social network, but especially before activating the button, as this will prevent your data from being assigned to your profile with the plug-in provider.

 

(5) Further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by the plug-in provider can be found in the privacy policies of these providers provided below. There you will also find further information on your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy.
