An exception applies only in such cases in which the prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and in which the processing of data is permitted under statutory provisions.
2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data
To the extent that we obtain the consent of data subjects for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) letter a of the EC General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applied as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.
Where the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a contract to which a data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1) letter b GDPR is applied as the legal basis. The same applies to processing that is required to carry out pre-contractual measures.
To the extent that the processing of personal data is required to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is a subject, Art. 6 (1) letter c GDPR is applied as the legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another individual require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) letter d GDPR is applied as the legal basis.
If the processing is necessary to protect the legitimate interests of our company or a third party, and if the data subject’s interests, fundamental rights or fundamental freedom do not override the interests mentioned first above, Art. 6 (1) letter f GDPR is applied as the basis of processing.

The personal data of the data subjects will be deleted or made unavailable as soon as the purpose of their retention is no longer valid. Moreover, the data can be retained if this is provided in EU or member state legislation or other regulations, to which the controller is a subject. The data will be deleted or made unavailable also if a retention period has expired that is required by the mentioned norms, unless it is required to continue to store the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

If the processing was restricted subject to the above-mentioned requirements, you are notified by the controller before the restriction is lifted.
4. Right to erasure
a. Erasure obligation
You can require the controller to delete the personal data relating to you immediately and the controller is obligated to delete such data immediately to the extent that one of the following reasons applies:
(1) The personal data relating to you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
(2) You withdraw your consent on which the processing was based subject to Art. 6 paragraph 1 letter a or Art. 9 paragraph 2 letter a GDPR and there is no other legal basis for processing.
(3) You object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 paragraph 1 GDPR and there are no other overriding legitimate reasons for processing, or you object to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 paragraph 2 GDPR.
(4) The personal data relating to you were processed unlawfully.

A right to erasure does not exist to the extent that the processing is required
(1) To exercise the right of freedom of expression and information;
(2) To fulfil a legal obligation that requires the processing pursuant to the laws of the European Union or one of its member states to which the controller is a subject, or that is required for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
(3) For reasons of the public interest in the area of public health in accordance with Art. 9 paragraph 2 letters h and i, and Art. 9 paragraph 3 GDPR;
(4) For archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historic research, or for statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89 paragraph 1 GDPR, to the extent that the right mentioned under letter a) presumably prevents or seriously impairs the realization of the objects of such a processing, or
(5) To assert, exercise, or defend legal claims.
5. Right of information
If you have exercised your right to correction, erasure, or restriction of processing against the controller, the controller is obligated to inform all recipients of personal data related to you about such correction, erasure, or restriction of processing, unless this proves to be impossible or would involve a disproportionate effort.
You are entitled to receive information from the controller about these recipients.
6. Right to data portability
Your are entitled to receive the personal data related to you, which you have provided to the controller, in a structured, customary, and machine-readable format. Furthermore, you are entitled to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data was provided, to the extent that
(1) The processing is based on a consent according to Art. 6 paragraph 1 letter a GDPR or Art. 9 paragraph 9 letter a GDPR, or on a contract subject to Art. 6 paragraph 1 letter b GDPR, and
(2) the processing takes place by means of automated processes.
When you exercise this right, you are further entitled to have the personal data relating to you directly transmitted from one controller to another, to the extent that this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other individuals or persons must not be impaired by this.
The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data that is required for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
7. Right to objection
For reasons that result from your specific situation, you are entitled to file objections against the processing of personal data relating to you at any time if such processing is based on Art. 6 paragraph 1 letter e or f GDPR; this applies to any profiling based on these provisions too.
The controller will cease to process the personal data relating to you, unless they can prove the existence of absolutely legitimate reasons for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defence of legal claims.
If the personal data relating to you is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you are entitled to object to the processing of the personal data relating to you with respect to such marketing activities; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it takes place in connection with such direct marketing.
If you object to the processing for the purpose of direct marketing, the personal data relating to you will no longer be processed for such purposes.
In connection with the use of information society services – notwithstanding the provisions of Directive 2002/58/EC – you can exercise your right to objection through automated processes that are based on technical specifications.
8. Right to revoke the declaration of consent with respect to data privacy
You are entitled to revoke your declaration of consent with respect to data privacy at any time. A revocation of the declaration of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of any processing based on the consent up to the date of revocation.
9. Automated decision-making on a case-by-case basis including profiling
You are entitled to not be subjected to a decision that is exclusively based on automated processes – including profiling – and legally affects you or significantly impairs you in a similar way. This shall not apply if the decision
(1) Is required for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract between you and the controller;
(2) Is permitted based on EU legislation or the laws of a member state to which the controller is a subject, and these laws contain appropriate measures to protect your rights and freedoms, and your legitimate interests; or
(3) Was made with your express consent.
However, such decisions must not be based on particular categories of personal data according to Art. 9 paragraph 1 GDPR, to the extent that Art. 9 paragraph 2 letter a or g does not apply and appropriate measures to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests were taken.
With respect to the cases mentioned under (1) and (3), the controller must take appropriate measures to protect your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, which, as a minimum, include the right to human intervention on the part of the controller, to express a point of view and to contest the decision.
10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Notwithstanding any other administrative or judicial remedies, you are entitled to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, including but not limited to that of the member state in which you reside, in which you work or in which the alleged violation has occurred if you are of the opinion that the processing of the personal data relating to you violates the GDPR.
The supervisory authority with which the complaint is lodged informs the complainant about the status and the results of the complaint, including the option of judicial remedies.
