If the purpose of storage no longer applies or a storage period stipulated by the European legislative and regulatory authorities or another legislative authority with jurisdiction expires, the personal data will be blocked or erased in accordance with the statutory provisions.
11. Legal bases of the processing of personal data
Article 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as our company’s legal basis for processing operations in which we obtain consent for a specific purpose of processing; this is the case with the use of a contact form integrated into the website, for example.
If the processing of personal data is necessary in order to perform a contract to which the data subject is party, such as in the case of the processing operations that are necessary in order to deliver goods or provide other services or consideration, then the processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. The same applies to those processing operations that are necessary in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract, such as in the case of inquiries regarding our products or services.
If our company is under a legal obligation that necessitates the processing of personal data, such as to fulfill tax obligations, then the processing is based on Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.
Furthermore, processing operations may be based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. This is the case if the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject.
We are permitted to engage in such processing operations in particular because they were specifically mentioned by the European legislative authorities. The legislature took the view, in this regard, that there could be a legitimate interest if the data subject is a client of the controller or is in the service of the controller (recital 47, second sentence, GDPR). If processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest consists in carrying on our business activities for the benefit of our shareholders, with consideration for the legitimate interests of the data subjects. When these interests are weighed, the focus is always on an appropriate relationship between the data subject and us as a company.
12. Period for which the personal data are stored
The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is statutory storage periods, which may arise from tax or commercial law or from other applicable legal provisions, wherever these legal provisions apply to your personal data. After the time limit expires, the data in question are erased if they are no longer needed for the performance of a contract, to prepare to enter into a contract, or to maintain the business relationship. If there are no applicable storage periods and you have given us your consent to store and use your personal data, then the data will be stored and used for the specific purpose thereof for the period indicated within the scope of the consent or until you withdraw your consent to the use thereof for the future.
13. Statutory or contractual provisions on providing the personal data; necessity of entering into a contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide the personal data
Please note that providing personal data is required by law in some cases (e.g. under tax law) or may also arise from contractual provisions (e.g. information regarding the other party to the contract). In some cases, it may be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data, which we are then required to process, in order to enter into a contract. For example, the data subject is obligated to provide us with personal data if our company enters into a contract with the data subject. Failure to provide the personal data would render it impossible to enter into the contract with the data subject.
14. Social media presence in social networks and platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube)
We maintain fan pages and channels within the following social networks and platforms:
- Facebook
- Instagram
- Pinterest
- YouTube
with the aim to communicate with the customers, interested parties and users, who are active there, and to inform them there about our services.

This means that no automatic connection is established to these social networks when loading our website. Only when you click on the icon will you be forwarded to the website of the corresponding social network. This website can thus be shared in social networks quickly and in an uncomplicated manner and, however, also protects your privacy in this case.
Please continue to note that the corresponding social networks or platforms always receive information that the data subject has visited our website if the data subject is simultaneously logged into the respective social network (for example Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube) at the time when our website is called and the icon is pressed. The consequence of this is that data is stored irrespective of the devices used by the users. If you want to prevent this you have to previously log out from the corresponding social network.
We would furthermore like to point out that, if you visit the websites of these social networks and platforms, your personal data may be processed outside of the European Union, and this may lead to risks for you (for example with the assertion of your rights according to European / German law). Please note that several US providers are certified under the Privacy-Shield and have therefore undertaken to comply with the data protection standards of the EU.
The data of the users is, as a rule, processed for market research and advertising purposes. Usage profiles can therefore be created e.g. from the usage behavior and accordingly from the interests of the users. These usage profiles can on the other hand be used, in order, e.g. to place advertisements inside and outside of the platforms, which presumably correspond with the users’ interests. For this purpose cookies are, as a rule, stored on the computers of the users, in which the usage behavior and the interests of the users are stored.
You can obtain further information relating to the processing of your personal data as well as to your possibilities to file an objection under the links of the respective provider listed below. The assertion of rights to information and further rights of the data subjects can also be carried out towards the providers as only these have the direct access to the data of the users and dispose over corresponding information.
