We are very pleased about your interest in our company. Data protection has a particularly high priority for the management of Joana Reis. The use of the Joana Reis website is generally possible without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to make use of special services offered by our company via our website, the processing of personal data may become necessary. If the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.
Privacy Policy
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address, or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in compliance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to Joana Reis. By means of this privacy policy, our company would like to inform the public about the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. Furthermore, this privacy policy informs data subjects of their rights.
As the controller responsible for processing, Joana Reis has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible of personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, internet-based data transmissions may generally have security gaps, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, any data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.
Definitions
The privacy policy of Joana Reis is based on the terminology used by the European legislator when adopting the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our privacy policy is intended to be easy to read and understand for the public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terminology used in advance.
In this privacy policy, we use, among others, the following terms:
a) Personal data
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as the “data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.
b) Data subject
A data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.
c) Processing
Processing is any operation or set of operations performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination, or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction.
d) Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting its future processing.
e) Profiling
Profiling is any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s work performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location, or movements.
f) Pseudonymization
Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures ensuring that the personal data is not assigned to an identified or identifiable natural person.
g) Controller or controller responsible for processing
The controller or controller responsible for processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body which alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union law or the law of the Member States, the controller or the specific criteria for its designation may be provided for by Union law or the law of the Member States.
h) Processor
A processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
i) Recipient
A recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or another body to which personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union law or the law of the Member States shall not be regarded as recipients.
j) Third party
A third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor, and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data.
k) Consent
Consent is any freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which the data subject, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.
Name and Address of the Controller
The controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), other data protection laws applicable in the Member States of the European Union, and other provisions of a data protection nature is:
Joana Reis

Cookies
The Joana Reis website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored and saved on a computer system via an Internet browser.
Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters through which websites and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified using the unique cookie ID.
Through the use of cookies, Joana Reis can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the setting of cookies.
By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized in the interest of the user. Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognize users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website. For example, a user of a website that uses cookies does not need to enter login details each time the website is accessed, as this is handled by the website and the cookie stored on the user’s computer system. Another example is the shopping cart cookie in an online shop. The online shop remembers the items a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.
The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding setting in the Internet browser used, and may thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies already set may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common Internet browsers. If the data subject disables the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.
Collection of General Data and Information
The Joana Reis website collects a series of general data and information each time the website is accessed by a data subject or an automated system. These general data and information are stored in the server log files. The following may be recorded:
(1) the browser types and versions used,
(2) the operating system used by the accessing system,
(3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrer),
(4) the sub-websites accessed via an accessing system on our website,
(5) the date and time of access to the website,
(6) an Internet Protocol address (IP address),
(7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and
(8) other similar data and information used for security purposes in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using these general data and information, Joana Reis does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is required in order to
(1) deliver the contents of our website correctly,
(2) optimize the contents of our website as well as advertising for it,
(3) ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and website technology, and
(4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyberattack.
These anonymously collected data and information are therefore evaluated statistically and with the aim of increasing data protection and data security within our company, ultimately ensuring an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data from the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.
Subscription to Our Newsletter
On the Joana Reis website, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our company’s newsletter. The personal data transmitted to the controller when subscribing to the newsletter result from the input mask used for this purpose.
Joana Reis regularly informs its customers and business partners about company offers by means of a newsletter. The company’s newsletter may only be received by the data subject if
(1) the data subject has a valid email address and
(2) the data subject has registered for the newsletter distribution.
For legal reasons, a confirmation email is sent to the email address entered by the data subject for the first time for newsletter distribution using the double opt-in procedure. This confirmation email is used to verify whether the owner of the email address has authorized the receipt of the newsletter.
When registering for the newsletter, we also store the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) of the computer system used by the data subject at the time of registration, as well as the date and time of registration. The collection of this data is necessary to trace any (possible) misuse of a data subject’s email address at a later date and therefore serves the legal protection of the controller.
The personal data collected as part of the newsletter registration will be used exclusively for sending our newsletter. In addition, newsletter subscribers may be informed by email if this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or for a related registration, such as in the event of changes to the newsletter offer or changes in technical circumstances. There is no transfer of personal data collected by the newsletter service to third parties. The subscription to our newsletter may be terminated by the data subject at any time. Consent to the storage of personal data given by the data subject for the newsletter distribution may be revoked at any time. For the purpose of revoking consent, a corresponding link is included in every newsletter. It is also possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time directly on the website of the controller or to inform the controller in another way.
Newsletter Tracking
The newsletters of Joana Reis contain so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic embedded in emails sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and log file analysis. This allows a statistical evaluation of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns. Using the embedded tracking pixel, Joana Reis can determine whether and when an email was opened by a data subject and which links contained in the email were accessed by the data subject.
Such personal data collected via the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters are stored and evaluated by the controller in order to optimize the newsletter distribution and better adapt the content of future newsletters to the interests of the data subject. These personal data are not passed on to third parties. Data subjects are entitled at any time to revoke the separate consent declaration given via the double opt-in procedure. After a revocation, these personal data will be deleted by the controller. Unsubscribing from the newsletter is automatically interpreted by Joana Reis as a revocation.
Contact via the Website
Due to legal requirements, the Joana Reis website contains information that enables quick electronic contact with our company as well as direct communication with us, including a general email address. If a data subject contacts the controller by email or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject are automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the controller are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties.
Comment Function in the Blog on the Website
Joana Reis offers users the opportunity to leave individual comments on individual blog posts on a blog located on the controller’s website. A blog is a publicly accessible portal on a website in which one or more persons, referred to as bloggers or web bloggers, can post articles or record thoughts in so-called blog posts. Blog posts can usually be commented on by third parties.
If a data subject leaves a comment on the blog published on this website, in addition to the comments left by the data subject, information about the time the comment was entered and the user name (pseudonym) chosen by the data subject will be stored and published. In addition, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) of the data subject is logged. This storage of the IP address is carried out for security reasons and in the event that the data subject violates the rights of third parties or posts illegal content through a comment. The storage of this personal data is therefore in the controller’s own interest, so that the controller can exonerate itself in the event of a legal violation. There is no disclosure of this collected personal data to third parties unless such disclosure is required by law or serves the legal defense of the controller.
Routine Deletion and Blocking of Personal Data
The controller processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or insofar as this is provided for by the European legislator or another legislator in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.
If the purpose of storage no longer applies or a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another competent legislator expires, the personal data are routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with legal requirements.
Rights of the Data Subject
a) Right to confirmation
Each data subject has the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning him or her are being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of confirmation, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time.
b) Right of access
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to obtain free information from the controller at any time about the personal data stored about him or her and a copy of this information. Furthermore, the European legislator has granted the data subject access to the following information:
the purposes of the processing
the categories of personal data concerned
the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organizations
where possible, the envisaged period for which the personal data will be stored, or, if not possible, the criteria used to determine that period
the existence of the right to request rectification or erasure of personal data concerning him or her, or restriction of processing by the controller, or to object to such processing
the existence of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
where the personal data are not collected from the data subject, any available information as to their source
the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, pursuant to Article 22(1) and (4) GDPR and, at least in those cases, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject
Furthermore, the data subject has the right to be informed whether personal data are transferred to a third country or to an international organization. Where this is the case, the data subject has the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer.
If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of access, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time.
c) Right to rectification
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to obtain the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him or her without undue delay. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, the data subject also has the right to have incomplete personal data completed, including by means of a supplementary statement.
If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to rectification, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time.
d) Right to erasure (Right to be forgotten)
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning him or her without undue delay, where one of the following grounds applies and insofar as the processing is not necessary:
The personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
The data subject withdraws consent on which the processing is based pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR, and there is no other legal ground for the processing.
The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR.
The personal data have been unlawfully processed.
The personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation in Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.
The personal data have been collected in relation to the offer of information society services pursuant to Article 8(1) GDPR.
If one of the aforementioned grounds applies and a data subject wishes to request the erasure of personal data stored by Joana Reis, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time. The employee of Joana Reis will ensure that the erasure request is complied with immediately.
If the personal data have been made public by Joana Reis and our company, as the controller, is obliged pursuant to Article 17(1) GDPR to erase the personal data, Joana Reis shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, to inform other controllers processing the published personal data that the data subject has requested the erasure of all links to such personal data or of copies or replications of such personal data, insofar as processing is not required. The employee of Joana Reis will arrange the necessary measures in individual cases.
e) Right to restriction of processing
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to request the restriction of processing from the controller where one of the following applies:
The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
The processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests instead the restriction of their use.
The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by the data subject for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
The data subject has objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the data subject.
If one of the aforementioned conditions is met and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by Joana Reis, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time. The employee of Joana Reis will arrange the restriction of the processing.
f) Right to data portability
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which have been provided by the data subject to a controller, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. The data subject also has the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided, where the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, provided that the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
Furthermore, in exercising the right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) GDPR, the data subject has the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and where this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
To assert the right to data portability, the data subject may contact an employee of Joana Reis at any time.
g) Right to object
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to object, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, at any time to the processing of personal data concerning him or her which is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
Joana Reis shall no longer process the personal data in the event of an objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
Where Joana Reis processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning him or her for such marketing. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to processing for direct marketing purposes, Joana Reis will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.
In addition, the data subject has the right to object, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning him or her for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.
To exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact any employee of Joana Reis or another employee at any time. The data subject is also free to exercise the right to object, in connection with the use of information society services, by automated means using technical specifications, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC.
h) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing — including profiling — which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her, provided that the decision
(1) is not necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between the data subject and the controller, or
(2) is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, or
(3) is based on the data subject’s explicit consent.
If the decision
(1) is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between the data subject and the controller, or
(2) is based on the data subject’s explicit consent, Joana Reis shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, 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.
If the data subject wishes to exercise rights relating to automated individual decision-making, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time.
i) Right to withdraw consent under data protection law
Each data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to withdraw his or her consent to the processing of personal data at any time.
If the data subject wishes to exercise the right to withdraw consent, he or she may contact an employee of the controller at any time.
Data Protection Provisions Regarding the Use of Meta
The controller has integrated components of the company Meta on this website. Meta is a social network.
A social network is an online social meeting place operated on the Internet, an online community that generally enables users to communicate with one another and interact in virtual space. A social network may serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences or enable the Internet community to provide personal or business-related information. Meta allows users of the social network, among other things, to create private profiles, upload photos, and connect via friend requests.
The operating company of Meta is Meta, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. The controller responsible for the processing of personal data, if a data subject lives outside the United States or Canada, is Meta Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.
Each time one of the individual pages of this website operated by the controller is accessed and on which a Meta component (Meta plug-in) has been integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Meta component to download a display of the corresponding Meta component from Meta. An overview of all Meta plug-ins can be found at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=en_US
. As part of this technical process, Meta obtains knowledge of which specific subpage of our website is visited by the data subject.
If the data subject is logged into Meta at the same time, Meta recognizes, with each access to our website by the data subject and for the entire duration of the respective stay on our website, which specific subpage of our website the data subject visits. This information is collected by the Meta component and assigned by Meta to the respective Meta account of the data subject. If the data subject activates one of the Meta buttons integrated on our website, for example the “Like” button, or submits a comment, Meta assigns this information to the personal Meta user account of the data subject and stores this personal data.
Meta always receives information via the Meta component that the data subject has visited our website if the data subject is logged into Meta at the time the website is accessed; this occurs regardless of whether the data subject clicks the Meta component or not. If such transmission of information to Meta is not desired by the data subject, this can be prevented by logging out of the Meta account before accessing our website.
The data policy published by Meta, which is available at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/
, provides information about the collection, processing, and use of personal data by Meta. It also explains the settings Meta offers to protect the privacy of the data subject. In addition, various applications are available that allow the suppression of data transmission to Meta. Such applications may be used by the data subject to prevent the transmission of data to Meta.
Data Protection Provisions Regarding the Use of Google AdSense
The controller has integrated Google AdSense on this website. Google AdSense is an online service that enables the placement of advertising on third-party websites. Google AdSense is based on an algorithm that selects advertisements displayed on third-party websites according to the content of the respective third-party website. Google AdSense allows interest-based targeting of Internet users through the generation of individual user profiles.
The operating company of the Google AdSense component is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.
The purpose of the Google AdSense component is the integration of advertisements on our website. Google AdSense places a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. Cookies have already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Alphabet Inc. is enabled to analyze the use of our website. Each time one of the individual pages of this website operated by the controller and on which a Google AdSense component is integrated is accessed, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Google AdSense component to transmit data to Alphabet Inc. for the purpose of online advertising and the settlement of commissions. As part of this technical process, Alphabet Inc. obtains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which serves, among other things, to trace the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently enable commission settlements.
The data subject may prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser used and may thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a browser setting would also prevent Alphabet Inc. from placing a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, cookies already set by Alphabet Inc. may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs.
Google AdSense also uses so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic embedded in websites to enable log file recording and analysis, allowing statistical evaluation. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, Alphabet Inc. can recognize whether and when a website was opened by a data subject and which links were clicked. Tracking pixels are used, among other things, to evaluate visitor traffic on a website.
Through Google AdSense, personal data and information — including the IP address — necessary for the collection and billing of displayed advertisements are transferred to Alphabet Inc. in the United States of America. This personal data is stored and processed in the United States of America. Alphabet Inc. may pass this personal data collected through the technical process on to third parties.
Google AdSense is explained in more detail at https://www.google.de/intl/en/adsense/start/
.
Data Protection Provisions Regarding the Use of Google Analytics (with Anonymization Function)
The controller has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymization function) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics is the collection, gathering, and evaluation of data on the behavior of visitors to websites. A web analytics service collects, among other things, data on the website from which a data subject has accessed a website (so-called referrers), which subpages were accessed, or how often and for what duration a subpage was viewed. Web analytics is mainly used to optimize a website and to conduct cost-benefit analyses of Internet advertising.
The operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.
The controller uses the addition “_gat._anonymizeIp” for web analytics via Google Analytics. By means of this addition, the IP address of the data subject’s Internet connection is shortened and anonymized by Google when access to our website originates from a Member State of the European Union or another contracting state of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze visitor flows on our website. Google uses the data and information obtained, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us that show activities on our website, and to provide other services related to the use of our website.
Google Analytics places a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. Cookies have already been explained above. By setting the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. Each time one of the individual pages of this website operated by the controller and on which a Google Analytics component is integrated is accessed, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Google Analytics component to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical process, Google obtains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which Google uses, among other things, to trace the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently enable commission settlements.
The cookie stores personal information such as the access time, location from which access originated, and the frequency of visits to our website by the data subject. Each time our website is visited, such personal data — including the IP address of the Internet connection used by the data subject — is transferred to Google in the United States of America and stored there. Google may pass this personal data collected through the technical process on to third parties.
The data subject may prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of an appropriate browser setting and may thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a browser setting would also prevent Google from placing a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, cookies already set by Google Analytics may be deleted at any time via a browser or other software programs.
Furthermore, the data subject has the option to object to the collection of data generated by Google Analytics relating to the use of this website and to the processing of such data by Google and to prevent such collection. To do so, the data subject must download and install a browser add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
. This browser add-on informs Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data or information about website visits may be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is regarded by Google as an objection. If the information technology system of the data subject is later deleted, formatted, or reinstalled, the data subject must reinstall the browser add-on to disable Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the data subject or another person attributable to their sphere of control, it is possible to reinstall or reactivate the browser add-on.
Further information and the applicable data protection provisions of Google can be accessed at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/
and https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/
Legal Basis for the Processing
Article 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which our company obtains consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, such as processing operations required for the delivery of goods or the provision of another service or consideration, the processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. The same applies to processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries regarding our products or services.
If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data, such as compliance with tax obligations, the processing is based on Article 6(1)(c) GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured on our premises and it became necessary to disclose their name, age, health insurance details, or other vital information to a physician, hospital, or other third parties. In such cases, the processing would be based on Article 6(1)(d) GDPR.
Finally, processing operations may be based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. This legal basis applies to processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases, where processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, provided that such interests are not overridden by the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject. Such processing operations are permitted in particular because they are expressly mentioned by the European legislator, who considered that a legitimate interest may be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47, sentence 2 GDPR).
Legitimate Interests in the Processing Pursued by the Controller or a Third Party
Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest is the conduct of our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and shareholders.
Duration for Which the Personal Data Are Stored
The criterion for determining the duration for which personal data are stored is the respective statutory retention period. After the expiration of that period, the corresponding data are routinely deleted, provided they are no longer required for the performance or initiation of a contract.
Statutory or Contractual Provisions Regarding the Provision of Personal Data; Necessity for the Conclusion of a Contract; Obligation of the Data Subject to Provide Personal Data; Possible Consequences of Failure to Provide Such Data
We inform you that the provision of personal data may in part be required by law (e.g., tax regulations) or may result from contractual provisions (e.g., information relating to the contractual partner). In certain cases, it may be necessary for the conclusion of a contract that a data subject provides personal data which must subsequently be processed by us.
For example, the data subject is obliged to provide personal data if our company enters into a contract with them. Failure to provide such personal data would result in the inability to conclude the contract with the data subject. Prior to providing personal data, the data subject must contact one of our employees. Our employee will clarify, on a case-by-case basis, whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract, or necessary for the conclusion of a contract, whether there is an obligation to provide such personal data, and what the consequences of failing to provide such data would be.
