II. General information on the collection, disclosure and storage period of personal data
Primarily, the data processing serves the provision of access to our website as well as the establishment and fulfillment of a contractual relationship with you. When you contact us by e-mail, via a contact form or by telephone, the data you provide (e.g. your e-mail address, name and telephone number, if applicable) will be stored by us in order to process your request. The primary legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR. In addition, your separate consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR may be used, if applicable. We also process your data in order to be able to fulfill our legal obligations, in particular in the area of commercial and tax law. This is done on the basis of Art. 6 (1) c) GDPR. As far as necessary, we also process your data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR in order to protect legitimate interests of us or of third parties. These interests may arise, for example, for advertising, as far as you have not objected to the use of your data, the assertion of legal claims and defense in legal disputes, ensuring the IT security of our company and for measures for business management and further development of services and products.
We will only disclose your personal data to third parties if you have given your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR, if the disclosure is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR (e.g. affiliated companies, courts, tax advisors, lawyers) and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in the non-disclosure of your data, in the event that there is a legal obligation for the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 (1) c) GDPR (e.g. tax authorities) as well as this is legally permissible and necessary for the processing of contractual relationships with you pursuant to Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR (e.g. banks, logistics service providers, IT service providers).
Depending on which services you use on our website or request from us, your personal data may be transferred to a third country. If we transfer personal data to recipients outside the European Economic Area (EEA), the transfer will only take place as far as the third country has been confirmed by the EU Commission to have an adequate level of data protection, other adequate data protection guarantees (e.g. binding corporate data protection rules or EU standard contractual clauses) are in place or an exception for the transfer according to Art. 49 GDPR applies.
We delete your personal data as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purposes stated in this privacy notice. After termination of the contractual relationship, your personal data will be stored as long as we are legally obliged to do so. This regularly results from legal obligations to provide proof and to retain data. The storage periods thereafter amount to up to ten years. In addition, personal data may be retained for the period during which claims can be asserted against us (statutory limitation period of three or up to thirty years).
You only need to provide us with the personal data that is necessary for the provision and use of certain functions of our website or the establishment and performance of a contractual relationship and the fulfillment of the associated contractual obligations, or which we are required to collect by law. Without this data, we will not be able to provide the website and certain functions of the website and to enter into and perform a contract with you.
III. Collection and processing of personal data on our website
Visit our website
In the case of mere informational use of the website, i.e., if you do not register or otherwise transmit information to us, we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our server and that are technically necessary for the presentation of our website and the guarantee of stability and security. These are the IP address, the request of your browser and the time of this request. In addition, the status and the amount of data transferred are recorded as part of this request. We also collect product and version information about the browser used and the operating system of your system. We further collect from which website the access of our site took place.
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to your browser. For this purpose, your IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session. The processing of the remaining data takes place in order to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data serves us to optimize the website and to ensure the stability and security of our systems. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR, based on a weighing of our legitimate and overriding interests mentioned above.
We transmit the collected data to external service providers (hosting provider, IT service provider, web agency), which support us in data processing for the above-mentioned purposes.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended. Otherwise, deletion takes place at the latest within 7 days after calling up the website.
Newsletter
With your consent, you can subscribe to our newsletter, with which we inform you about our offers. The advertised goods and services are named in the consent form.
For the registration to our newsletter, we use the so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after your registration, we will send you an e-mail to the specified e-mail address in which we ask you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. If you do not confirm your registration within 24 hours, your information will be blocked and automatically deleted after one month. In addition, we store your respective IP addresses used and times of registration and confirmation. The purpose of the procedure is to be able to prove your registration and, if necessary, to clarify a possible misuse of your personal data. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) a) and c), Art. 7 (1), Art. 5 (2) GDPR.
Mandatory data for sending the newsletter is only your e-mail address and company name, which is marked separately. The provision of further data is voluntary and will be used to address you personally. After your confirmation, we store your specified data for the purpose of sending the newsletter. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR. The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. Accordingly, the user’s e-mail address will be stored as long as the subscription to the newsletter is active. We may store inactive e-mail addresses for up to three years in order to prove consent previously given and to be able to defend against possible claims. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) c), Art. 5 (2) GDPR.
You can revoke your consent to the sending of the newsletter and personal evaluation of your usage behavior (performance measurement) at any time and unsubscribe from the newsletter. You can declare the revocation by clicking on the link provided in every newsletter e-mail or by sending a message to the contact details provided in the imprint.
The newsletter is sent by Mailchimp, an email marketing service of The Rocket Science Group LLC, 675 Ponce de Leon Ave NE, Suite 5000 Atlanta, GA 30308, USA (“Mailchimp”). Your email address as well as your other newsletter receipt data mentioned in this notice are stored on Mailchimp’s servers in the USA. Mailchimp uses this information to send and measure the success of the newsletter on our behalf. The use of Mailchimp is based on our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR. Our interest is directed towards the use of a user-friendly as well as secure newsletter system that serves our business interests as well as meets the expectations of users. Mailchimp ensures the level of data protection for the processing of data in the USA under agreement of standard data protection clauses according to Art. 46 GDPR. These are available here: https://mailchimp.com/legal/data-processing-addendum/#Annex_C_-_Standard_Contractual_Clauses
Our newsletters contain so-called web beacons, i.e., a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the Mailchimp server when the newsletter is opened. As part of this retrieval, technical information, such as data on the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and the time of the retrieval are collected, which serve to technically improve the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior. In addition, your usage behavior is evaluated to determine whether the newsletters were opened, when they were opened, and which links were clicked. The evaluations are used to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to be able to offer different content according to the individual interests of our users. This performance measurement is included in the consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR to send the newsletter. A revocation can therefore only be made together with the consent to send the newsletter.
IV. Further information on data processing within and outside our website
Contact and communication
We collect your personal data as a customer, business partner, interested third party or supplier if you provide it to us voluntarily by e-mail, via a contact form on our website, by mail or by telephone. We then collect the information that comes about as part of the contact and/or cooperation. This includes in particular names and transmitted contact data, date and reason for contact.
The personal data collected from you will be used for the purpose of providing you with the requested products or services and corresponding with you (legal basis Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR), for the fulfillment of legal obligations (legal basis Art. 6 (1) c) GDPR) or on the basis of legitimate interests of us or of third parties (legal basis Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR), which are described in this Privacy Policy.
You are not obliged to provide the aforementioned personal data. The data provided may be necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Without the provision of the data, communication, conclusion of a contract or contract processing may not be possible.
A transfer of the data relevant in the respective individual case takes place on the basis of the legal provisions or a contractual agreement to public bodies in the presence of overriding legal provisions, to external service providers or other contractors and to other external bodies, as far as you have given your consent, or a transfer is permissible for predominant interest.
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Insofar as the data disclosed is subject to retention obligations under tax and commercial law, it will be stored for the duration of the retention obligations of ten years and then deleted, as far as you have not consented to storage beyond this, or the further processing of the data is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims (statutory limitation period of three or up to thirty years).
Privacy notice for job applicants
We only collect your personal data as an applicant if you provide it to us voluntarily by e-mail, by mail or by telephone. This applies both to applications in response to job advertisements and to unsolicited applications. In this case, we record the information provided in the application. This includes in particular name, date of birth, contact data, interests, qualification data as well as educational and professional background. The personal data collected from you will only be used for the purpose of carrying out the application process. The legal bases are Art. 6 (1) a), b) and f) GDPR.
You are not obliged to provide the aforementioned personal data. The data provided may be required for a future conclusion of a contract after completion of the application process. Without the provision of the data, communication, the implementation of the application process or the conclusion of a contract may not be possible.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Therefore, after the application procedure has been carried out, we retain your data for six months after you have been notified of the rejection decision in the event of a rejection. If you have consented to longer storage, the storage period is regularly two years. After that, we will either delete your data or obtain your consent again. You have the option to revoke your consent to the processing of personal data at any time.
Individual participation in remote experiences
If you participate in our remote experiences, it may be necessary for the implementation that you provide your personal address data, which we need for the delivery of the working materials. The necessary mandatory information is clearly listed. The legal basis for the processing of this personal data is Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR.
After the event has been completed, your address data will be stored for the duration of the tax and commercial law retention obligations of six years and then deleted, unless further processing of the data is necessary for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims. The legal basis for the processing of personal data for the purpose of fulfilling the legal archiving and retention obligations is Art. 6 (1) c) GDPR.
Our logistics service providers may only process or use the data collected by us for the purpose for which they were transmitted to them, if necessary. Your personal data is accessible to you at all times. Insofar as data is passed on to external service providers, we have taken technical and organizational measures to ensure that the data protection regulations are observed.
You are not obliged to provide the aforementioned personal data. However, the data provided is necessary for the implementation of the event. Without the provision of the data, participation cannot take place.
Social media
We also process your personal data when you visit us on our social media accounts. We maintain these social media accounts primarily to communicate with customers, interested parties and users, to increase our brand awareness and to advertise our products and services. The respective provider stores the data collected about you as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research, and/or demand-oriented design of its network. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (also for non-logged-in users) for the display of needs-based advertising. For the respective data processing purposes and data categories, we refer to the individual social media accounts, which are explained in more detail below.
The legal basis for the use of these social media accounts is Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR, as we have a legitimate interest in communicating with and informing customers and interested parties via these accounts. Insofar as you wish to enter into a contractual relationship with us with your request, the legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1 b) GDPR.
In addition to the processing of the above data by the respective providers, we transfer the collected data to external service providers (e.g., platform, hosting, support, and analysis service providers) for processing in accordance with the above-mentioned purposes (implementation and support of communication and information as well as advertising).
The personal data collected will be deleted as soon as they are no longer needed for the processing purposes.

Use of Zoom services
We use the “Zoom” service of Zoom Video Communications, Inc., USA (“Zoom”) to conduct video conferences and online meetings (“online meetings”). In this context, we are only responsible for data processing directly related to video conferencing and online meetings offered by us. To the extent that you otherwise interact with Zoom’s website or use Zoom’s services independently of us, Zoom is solely responsible for data protection. The legal basis for data processing when conducting “online meetings” is Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR, insofar as these are conducted in the context of contractual relationships. Insofar as personal data is processed by our employees, Section 26 BDSG is the legal basis. If there is no contractual relationship or no processing is required for the establishment, implementation or termination of the employment relationship, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest in these cases is the effective implementation of “online meetings”.
Various types of data are processed when using “Zoom”. The scope of the data also depends on the data you provide before or during participation in an “online meeting”. We use “Zoom” to conduct “online meetings”. If we want to record “online meetings”, we will inform you transparently in advance and – if necessary – ask for your consent. The fact that a recording is taking place will also be indicated to you in the “Zoom” app. If it is necessary for the purposes of logging the results of an online meeting, we will log the chat content. However, this will usually not be the case. In the case of webinars, we may also process questions asked by webinar participants for purposes of recording and following up on webinars. If you are registered as a user at “Zoom”, then reports of “online meetings” (meeting metadata, telephone dial-in data, questions and answers in webinars, survey function in webinars) may be stored at “Zoom” for up to one month. The following personal data are subject to processing: User details (first name, last name, phone (optional), email address, password (if “single sign-on” is not used), profile picture (optional), department (optional)), meeting metadata (topic, description (optional), participant IP addresses, device/hardware information), Recording data (optional) (MP4 file of all video, audio and presentation recordings, M4A file of all audio recordings, text file of the online meeting chat) when dialing in with the telephone, telephone-data (information on incoming and outgoing call number, country name, start and end time. If necessary, further connection data such as the IP address of the device may be stored) and text, audio, and video data. You may have the opportunity to use the chat, question, or survey functions in an “online meeting”. To this extent, the text entries you make are processed in order to display them in the “online meeting” and, if necessary, to log them. In order to enable the display of video and the playback of audio, the data from the microphone of your terminal device and from any video camera of the terminal device will be processed accordingly for the duration of the meeting. You can turn off or mute the camera or microphone yourself at any time via the “Zoom” applications. To participate in an “online meeting” or to enter the “meeting room”, you must at least provide information about your name.
Personal data processed in connection with participation in “online meetings” will not be disclosed to third parties as a matter of principle unless it is specifically intended for disclosure. Please note that the content of “online meetings”, as well as personal meetings, is often used to communicate information with customers, interested parties or third parties and is therefore intended to be passed on. The provider of “Zoom” necessarily obtains knowledge of the above-mentioned data to the extent that this is provided for in the context of our order processing agreement with “Zoom”.
“Zoom” is a service provided by a provider from the USA. A processing of personal data therefore also takes place in a third country. We have concluded an order processing agreement with the provider of “Zoom” that meets the requirements of Art. 28 GDPR. An adequate level of data protection is guaranteed by agreed EU standard contractual clauses. Zoom’s Global Data Processing Addendum with reference to the standard contractual clauses is available here: https://zoom.us/docs/doc/Zoom_GLOBAL_DPA.pdf.
As a matter of principle, we delete personal data when there is no need for further storage. A requirement may exist in particular if the data is still needed to fulfill contractual services, to check and grant or defend against warranty and, if applicable, guarantee claims. In the case of statutory retention obligations, deletion will only be considered after expiry of the respective retention obligation.
V. Objection or revocation against the processing of your data
If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you may revoke this consent at any time. Such revocation affects the permissibility of processing your personal data after you have expressed it to us.
Insofar as we base the processing of your personal data on the balance of interests, you can object to the processing. This is the case if the processing is not necessary, in particular, for the performance of a contract with you, which is shown by us in each case in the following description of the functions. When exercising such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data as we have done. In the event of your justified objection, we will review the situation and either discontinue or adjust the data processing or show you our compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we will continue the processing.
Of course, you can object to the processing of your personal data for purposes of advertising and data analysis at any time. You can inform us of your objection to advertising using the contact details given in Section I.
VI. Your rights
In accordance with Article 15 GDPR, you have the right to request information about your personal data processed by us. In particular, you can request information about the processing purposes, the category of personal data, the categories of recipients to whom your data have been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing or objection, the existence of a right of complaint, the origin of your data if it has not been collected from us, and the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, and, if applicable, meaningful information about its details.
Pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR, you may request the correction of incorrect or incomplete personal data stored by us without undue delay. In accordance with Art. 17 GDPR, you have the right to request the erasure of your personal data stored by us, as far as the processing is not necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims.
Pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data, as far as the accuracy of the data is disputed by you, the processing is unlawful, but you object to its erasure and we no longer need the data, but you need it for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or you have objected to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR.
In accordance with Art. 20 GDPR, you have the right to receive your personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, common and machine-readable format or to request the transfer to another controller.
In accordance with Art. 7 (3) GDPR, you have the right to revoke your consent once given to us at any time. This has the consequence that we may no longer continue the data processing based on this consent for the future.
You also have the right under Article 77 GDPR to lodge a complaint about the processing of your personal data by us with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement, if you believe that the processing activities of the personal data concerning you violate the GDPR
