Legal basis for data protection

The legal basis for data processing within the framework of the EU General Data Protection Regulation is derived from Art. 6 GDPR. Depending on the situation in which we process your data, different legal bases may apply.

Consent

Insofar as your consent has been obtained for the processing of personal data, Article 6 I a) GDPR is the legal basis for data processing. Consent that has been granted can be revoked at any time with effect for the future.

Contract

When processing personal data collected for the fulfilment of a contract to which you are a party, Article 6 I b) GDPR is the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures.

Legal obligation

Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6 I c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

Vital interests

In the event that vital interests of you or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Article 6 I d) GDPR is the legal basis.

Legitimate interest

If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Article 6 I f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing. The legitimate interest of our company lies in the performance of our business activities.
