II. Information on Data Processing

Scope of Processing of Personal Data

In principle, we collect and use personal data of our users only to the extent it is required to provide a functioning website as well as for our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users is carried out regularly only after consent is given by our users. An exception applies in cases in which a previous obtaining of a consent is not possible for actual reasons and where the processing of data is permitted on the basis of statutory provisions.

Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data

To the extent that we obtain consent from the data subject for the processing of personal data, Section 6 Subsection 1 lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as legal basis for the processing of personal data. For the processing of personal data required to execute a contract whose contractual party is the data subject, Section 6 Subsection 1 lit. b GDPR serves as legal basis. This also applies to processing that is required for the execution of pre-contractually measures. If such processing is required to maintain a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, and if the interests, basic rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Section 6 Subsection 1 lit. f GDPR serves as legal basis for such processing.

Data Deletion and Duration of Storage

Personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for storing such data no longer applies. Storage beyond such a period can be effected if such storage is prescribed by the European or national legislative body in provisions pertaining to European Union law or other provisions the data subject is subject to. Blocking or deletion of data is also effected if a storage period expires that is prescribed by the cited standards, unless there is a requirement for further storage of such data to enter into a contract or to execute a contract.

  • Support of planning processes (e.g. vehicle relocation, cost estimation, forecast costs, new material supply processes)

2. Legal Basis for the Processing of Data

Legal basis for the temporary storage of data and the logfiles is Section 6 Subsection 1 lit. f GDPR.

3. Purpose of Data Processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to facilitate delivery of the website to the computer of the user. To do so, the IP address of the user must remain stored for the duration of the session.

Storing of logfiles is effected to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, such data helps us to optimise the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An analysis of such data for marketing purposes will not be carried out in this context.

4. Duration of Storage

Data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to fulfil the purpose of its collection. In the event of collection of data for the provisioning of the website this is the case whenever the respective session ends.

In the event of storing of data in logfiles this is after seven days the case at the latest. Storage to exceed such a period is possible. In such a case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or redacted so that an allocation of the accessing client is no longer possible.

5. Option for Objection and Removal

Collection of data for the provisioning of the website and storing of data in logfiles is required for the operation of the website. Consequently, the user has no possibility to object.
