Personal data: Personal data refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is one who can be directly or indirectly identified, especially by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more specific characteristics that express the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.
Data subject: A data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is being processed by the data controller.
Processing: Processing includes any operation or set of operations performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means. This includes the 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 of personal data.
Recipient: A recipient is a natural or legal person, authority, institution, or other entity to whom personal data is disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, authorities that may receive personal data in the context of a specific investigation task under Union law or the law of Member States are not considered recipients.

Scope, Purpose, Legal Basis, Storage Period, and, if applicable, Recipients and Transfer to Third Countries of Each Processing of Personal Data
5.1 General Information
Below, we provide you with an overview of the personal data we process. We explain the extent, purposes, and legal basis on which we process personal data. Additionally, if applicable, we disclose the third-party providers who receive your data. Lastly, we inform you whether the respective third-party processing involves data transfer to countries outside the European Union ("EU") or the European Economic Area ("EEA").
Providing your personal information is always voluntary. However, please note that certain functionalities may only work if you provide your information (e.g., contact form).
We will not disclose your personal data to third parties without your consent unless it is legally permitted (e.g., if required for contract fulfillment).
The processing of your personal data may be based on the following legal grounds:
Art. 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis for processing where we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose.
If processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract with you or for pre-contractual measures, the processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.
If we are subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data, the processing is based on Art. 6(1)(c) of the GDPR in conjunction with the respective legal norm.
Furthermore, processing activities may be based on Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. This legal basis applies when the processing is necessary to protect our legitimate interests, provided that the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not override those interests.
In case we transfer personal data to be processed in a third country, we ensure compliance with Art. 44 ff. of the GDPR. This means that before any transfer of personal data to a third country outside the EU or the EEA, we assess whether an adequate level of protection is ensured.
An adequate level of protection can be ensured, among other things, through an adequacy decision by the European Commission, the implementation of standard data protection clauses with the recipient, and the adoption of additional measures or the use of other guarantees regulated in Art. 46 ff. of the GDPR. If the data transfer is based on Art. 46, 47, or 49(1) of the GDPR, you can request a copy of the safeguards for ensuring an adequate level of data protection regarding the data transfer or information on the availability of such safeguards.
5.2 Data Deletion
The data processed by us will be deleted in accordance with legal requirements once the granted processing consent is revoked or if other permissions no longer apply (e.g., when the purpose of the data processing is no longer applicable or the data is no longer necessary for that purpose). If the data is not deleted because it is required for other legally permissible purposes, its processing will be restricted accordingly. This means the data will be blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for commercial or tax reasons or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person.
Our privacy policy may contain additional information on the storage and deletion of data that apply primarily to specific processing activities.
5.3 Security Measures
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, implementation costs, the nature, scope, context, and purposes of processing, as well as the varying likelihood and severity of risks to the rights and freedoms of natural persons.
These measures include, in particular, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data and the corresponding access, input, disclosure, availability, and separation of the data. We have also established procedures to ensure the exercise of data subject rights, data deletion, and response to data threats.
Furthermore, we consider the protection of personal data from the early stages of hardware, software, and procedural development, following the principle of data protection by design and by default.
5.4 Transmission of Personal Data
During the processing of personal data, it may occur that the data is transmitted or disclosed to other entities, companies, legally independent organizational units, or individuals. Recipients of this data may include IT service providers or providers of services and content integrated into a website. In such cases, we comply with legal requirements and, in particular, conclude appropriate contracts or agreements that serve to protect your data with the recipients of your data.
