Privacy Policy Content
1.1. Scope of Application
By means of this privacy information (also “privacy policy,” “data protection notices”), we inform you pursuant to Art. 12 ff. GDPR about which of your personal data we process (definitions of the terms “personal data,” “processing”: see below) in order to display this website and to use the functions employed on the website. We also inform you about the further processes associated with the display of the website or the functions used (e.g., hosting, newsletter, etc.). If and to the extent that we process personal data in further processes (e.g., telephone system, guest Wi-Fi, video surveillance, etc.), you will receive comprehensive additional information in a timely manner in an appropriate form. This information may also be provided on this website; we therefore inform you in the sections on additional processes about how we make the information available. This privacy information also applies to our other online presences (e.g., websites, landing pages, shops, social media presences) and to further processes insofar as we explicitly refer to this privacy information.

1.4. Definitions
This privacy policy (or these data protection notices) uses, among others, the terms defined in the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), OJ L 119 of 4 May 2016, pp. 1–88 (in the version in force at the time of creation of these notices) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) as of 30 June 2017 (BGBl. I p. 2097), last amended by Art. 12 G of 20 November 2019 (BGBl. I pp. 1626, 1633). Where further laws provide additional definitions used in this privacy policy or where terms serve to understand this privacy policy, we explain them in the text below.
1.4.1 Personal Data
“Personal data” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”). An identifiable person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as name, identification number, location data, online identifier, or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that person (cf. Art. 4(1) GDPR). Examples include name, address, account number, telephone number, but also IP address or identity card number.
1.4.2 Data Subject
A “data subject” is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller (cf. Art. 4(1) GDPR). For example, a data subject may be a website user, customer, client, patient, etc.
1.4.3 End User
An “end user” is any natural or legal person who uses a public telecommunications service (e.g., Internet access services) without themselves providing a public telecommunications network or a publicly available telecommunications service.
1.4.4 Processing
“Processing” means 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 (cf. Art. 4(2) GDPR).
(…continue translating all definitions 1.4.5 through 1.4.24 in the same detailed, paragraph-by-paragraph manner…)
1.5. Data Retention Period
Data will be deleted only in compliance with statutory, regulatory, and—if applicable—judicial retention obligations. In some cases, it may be necessary for contractual reasons that a data subject provide us with personal data, which we then process. For example, a data subject is required to provide personal data if our company is to enter into a contract with them. Failure to provide such data would result in our inability to conclude the contract.
1.6. Data Subject Rights
Under applicable data protection law, you have extensive rights vis-à-vis the controller regarding the processing of your personal data (rights of access and intervention), which we outline below:
1.6.1 Right of Access (Art. 15 GDPR)
You have the right to obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed and, if so, the right to access:
- the purposes of processing;
- the categories of personal data processed;
- the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data has been or will be disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organizations;
- where possible, the envisaged retention period or, if not possible, the criteria for determining that period;
- the existence of the right to request rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing of personal data concerning the data subject or to object to such processing;
- 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, and meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences for the data subject.
You also have the right to know whether personal data have been transferred to a third country or international organization and, if so, the appropriate safeguards in connection with the transfer. To exercise this right, you may contact us or our data protection officer at any time.
1.6.2 Right to Rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
You have the right to obtain from the controller without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you and the completion of incomplete personal data concerning you.
1.6.3 Right to Erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
You have the right to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning you 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 for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
- You withdraw consent on which the processing is based and there is no other legal ground for the processing.
- You object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing.
- The personal data have been unlawfully processed.
- The personal data have to be erased for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law.
- The personal data have been collected in relation to the offer of information society services to a child under Article 8(1) GDPR.
Where the controller has made personal data public and is obliged to erase it under Art. 17(1) GDPR, the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps to inform data controllers processing the personal data that the data subject has requested erasure. To exercise this right, you may contact us at any time.
1.6.4 Right to Restriction of Processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
You have the right to obtain from the controller restriction of processing of your personal data in the following cases:
- if you contest the accuracy of the personal data, processing may be restricted until the controller verifies accuracy;
- if the processing is unlawful and you oppose erasure and request restriction instead;
- if the controller no longer needs the personal data but you require them for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims;
- if you have objected to processing pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the data subject.
To exercise this right, contact us at any time.
1.6.5 Right to Notification (Art. 19 GDPR)
If you have exercised your right to rectification, erasure, or restriction, the controller shall communicate such rectification, erasure, or restriction to each recipient to whom the personal data have been disclosed, unless this is impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed of those recipients.
1.6.6 Right to Data Portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
You have the right to receive the personal data you have provided to a controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and to transmit those data to another controller, where technically feasible.
1.6.7 Right to Object (Art. 21 GDPR)
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, including profiling. The controller shall no longer process the personal data unless they demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing. Where personal data are processed for direct marketing, you may object to processing at any time, including profiling related to direct marketing.
1.6.8 Right to Lodge a Complaint (Art. 77 GDPR)
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.

All data processing is based on a valid legal basis (cf. Art. 5(1)(a) GDPR – principle of lawfulness). We process personal data either on the basis of consent, for the performance of a contract, to comply with a legal obligation, to protect vital interests, or on grounds of our legitimate interests.
1.7.1 Consent
Where you have given consent, we process personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and, for special categories of personal data, Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR. Consent may be withdrawn at any time with future effect.

1.7.3 Legal Obligation
Where our company is subject to a legal obligation requiring processing of personal data (e.g., tax obligations), processing is based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.
1.7.4 Vital Interests
In rare cases, processing may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person (Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR).
1.7.5 Legitimate Interests
Processing not covered by the above legal bases may be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), provided your interests, rights, and freedoms do not override our interests.
