If these tools are active, your personal data can be transferred to these countries and processed there. We would like to point out that in data protection non-compliant third countries, a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU cannot be guaranteed.

Please note that the USA is generally considered a secure third country.

Recipients of Personal Data As part of our business activities, we work with various external entities. In some cases, the transfer of personal data to these external entities is necessary. We only transfer personal data to external entities if this is necessary for the fulfillment of a contract, if we are legally obligated to do so (e.g., data transfer to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest according to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR in the transfer, or if another legal basis permits the data transfer. When using processors, we only transfer personal data of our customers based on a valid contract on data processing. In the case of joint processing, a contract on joint processing is concluded.

Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Specific Cases and to Direct Advertising (Article 21 GDPR) IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ARTICLE 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME, FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH A PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES TO ASSERT, EXERCISE, OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION ACCORDING TO ARTICLE 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED TO CONDUCT DIRECT ADVERTISING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH ADVERTISING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING, INSOFAR AS IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT ADVERTISING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT ADVERTISING PURPOSES (OBJECTION ACCORDING TO ARTICLE 21(2) GDPR).

Right to File a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects have a right to file a complaint with a supervisory authority, especially in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged breach. The right to file a complaint exists without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability You have the right to have data, which we process based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, handed over to you or to a third party in a standard, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.

Access, Rectification, and Erasure Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free access to your stored personal data, its origin and recipient, and the purpose of the data processing and, if necessary, a right to rectification or erasure of this data.

Right to Restriction of Processing You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. If the processing of your personal data happened/is happening unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of erasure. If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of erasure. If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your and our interests. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data - apart from its storage - may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

Communication via WhatsApp For communication with our customers and other third parties, we also use the instant messaging service WhatsApp among others. The provider is WhatsApp Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

The communication takes place via end-to-end encryption (peer-to-peer), which prevents WhatsApp or other third parties from accessing the communication content. However, WhatsApp receives access to metadata that is generated during the communication process (e.g., sender, recipient, and time). We also note that WhatsApp states that it shares personal data of its users with its US-based parent company Meta. Further details on data processing can be found in WhatsApp's privacy policy at: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/#privacy-policy.

The use of WhatsApp is based on our legitimate interest in communicating with customers, prospects, and other business and contractual partners as quickly and effectively as possible (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively based on consent; this can be revoked at any time with effect for the future.

The communication content exchanged between you and us on WhatsApp will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed).

If you subsequently perform a certain transaction (conversion), the publisher receives a commission for this. To calculate this commission, it is necessary for the affiliate network operator to be able to track which affiliate advertisement you came through to the respective offer and performed the predefined transaction.
