Data protection and information on personal data

Unfold the respective tabs to learn more.

introduction

It has become an everyday routine to use IT systems to obtain and process information and to communicate. Hardly any business area can do without the use of computers these days. This insert, when used properly, facilitates a large part of the activities.

Companies have the ambition to collect the most accurate information possible about their customers, suppliers and employees in order to be able to offer the best possible deals. The collection of data in particular must be severely restricted in the course of the General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO), so that only the most necessary data (data minimisation) is collected.

We take into account Art. 5 DSGVO “Principles for the processing of personal data”, i.e. We process data

– in a lawful manner, transparently in good faith.

– only for specified, clear and legitimate purposes.

– according to the principle of data minimisation

– factually correct, up to date

– only for as long as is necessary for the purpose

– with the appropriate security and integrity, secured by the necessary technical and organisational measures

However, negligent or unlawful use may result in the loss of personal and other confidential information. This in turn can threaten IT security, jeopardise the reputation of companies and infringe the rights of others.

For this reason, we require all our employees to handle all our data and IT systems responsibly and carefully.

The aim of this policy is to set minimum standards for the use and operation, as well as to ensure the legally compliant processing of personal and confidential data.

The aim is to ensure that

– only authorised employees can take note of this data

– data can be traced back to their origin at any time

– It is recorded who has used and processed which data and when.

– Data is kept complete and up to date

Care must be taken to ensure that the effort involved is always proportionate to the purpose of the protection.

Scope of the Directive

The policy described here applies to all IT systems and applications (whether analogue or digital) that use and process personal and sensitive data.

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable individual. A natural person becomes identifiable as soon as he or she can be identified directly or indirectly, especially by assigning specific characteristics (name, identification number, bank data, date of birth, address, etc.).

There is also a special category of personal data, the sensitive data. This is all information that reveals racial and ethnic origin, political opinion, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, health data or information on sexual orientation.

This privacy policy is binding for all our employees. All employees are regularly trained and sensitised on the topic of data protection. This can be done in the course of daily work, through notices, e-mail distribution lists, internal and external training, as well as in the course of data protection audits and inspections. Our employees document their commitment to comply with the data protection policy by signing it.

Due to the legal requirements of Art. 13 of the General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO), we are obliged to comply with internal data protection regulations in accordance with Art. 47 of the Data Protection Act.

Purpose and legal basis of data processing

Personal data may only be processed for the purposes that were specified before the data were collected. Subsequent changes to the purposes are only possible to a limited extent and require justification or consent from the data subject. We only collect and process the personal data that we need to fulfil our legal and contractual obligations and to carry out our necessary internal processes.

We process according to DSGVO Art. 6 (1)

– Consent of the data subject
– Contract performance or pre-contractual measures
– Fulfilment of legal obligations (e.g. storage obligations)
– Vital interests of the person concerned (e.g. medical treatment)
– Safeguarding public interests
– Predominant legitimate interests of our company or a third party

Specifically, this includes:

– Interested parties and applicants: for answering contact requests and communication (e.g. making appointments), pre-contractual internal processing
– Customers: for internal customer data management, contract fulfilment, as well as for contacting and making appointments, greeting cards, invitations to events.
– Suppliers / partners: in the context of procurement procedures and contractual relationships with external service providers or other partners, greeting cards
– Users of our website / IT systems:
to defend against malware and threats to our communication technologies as well as our own security measures
– Employees: Employee data processing in the context of employment activities and legal requirements.

Disclosure of personal data

If, in the course of our processing, we disclose data to other persons and companies, transfer it to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this is done on the basis of a legal permission, if the data subjects have consented, if a legal obligation provides for this, if it is necessary for the performance of a task that is in the public interest or on the basis of our legitimate interests.

If we involve third parties, they will only receive personal data to the extent that the transfer is necessary for the corresponding service.

In the event that we outsource certain parts of data processing (“commissioned processing”), we contractually oblige commissioned processors to use personal data only in accordance with the requirements of data protection laws and to ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject. Data is only transferred to third parties within the scope of legal and internal requirements, e.g. to the tax office and other offices, chambers, banks.

Data transfer to bodies or persons outside the EU does not take place and is not planned. Exceptions to this rule shall only be made with the consent of the persons concerned.

Categories of personal data

We process the following categories of personal data:

– Employee data: Names, addresses, functions, qualifications, tax data, time recording, etc. (see survey information).

– Contact details (e.g. name, address, e-mail, telephone/fax numbers etc.)

– Client data: Names, addresses, function, employer, tax data, etc.

– Usage data, meta/communication data (e.g. IP addresses).

Duration of storage or criteria for determining the duration

The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiry of the deadline, the corresponding data is routinely deleted if it is no longer required to achieve the purpose, fulfil the contract or initiate the contract. Deletion takes place according to a documented deletion concept.
