3. General Information and Mandatory Information

Data Protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the applicable data protection laws and this Privacy Policy.

When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data by which you can be personally identified. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.

Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Information on the Controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

Maike Wiechmann

c/o MDC#204

Welserstraße 3

87463 Dietmannsried
Germany
Telephone: +4917654430071
E-mail: contact@maikewiechmann.com

The controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, e-mail addresses, etc.).

Storage Period

Unless a more specific storage period has been specified in this Privacy Policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing the data no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for erasure or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be erased unless we have other legally permissible grounds for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the data will be erased once these grounds no longer apply.

General Information on the Legal Bases for Data Processing on This Website

If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, insofar as special categories of personal data are processed pursuant to Art. 9(1) GDPR. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, the data processing is additionally based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access to information in your terminal device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), the data processing is additionally based on Section 25(1) TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time. If your data is required for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data insofar as this is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The respective applicable legal bases are specified in the following

paragraphs of this Privacy Policy.

Information on Data Transfers to Third Countries That Are Not Secure Under Data Protection Law and
Transfers to US Companies That Are Not DPF-Certified

We use, among other things, tools provided by companies based in third countries that are not considered secure under data protection law, as well as US-based tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these countries. Please note that in third countries that are not considered secure under data protection law, a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU cannot be guaranteed.

Please note that, in principle, the USA, as a secure third country, provides a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU. Accordingly, data may be transferred to the USA if the recipient has certification under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF) or has appropriate additional safeguards in place. Information on transfers to third countries, including the data recipients, can be found in this Privacy Policy.

Recipients of Personal Data

As part of our business activities, we work with various external entities. In some cases, this also requires the transfer of personal data to these external entities. We only disclose personal data to external entities if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. disclosure of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the disclosure of data. When using data processors, we only disclose our customers’ personal data on the basis of a valid Data Processing Agreement. In the case of joint processing, a Joint Processing Agreement will be concluded.

Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent that you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Specific Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF THE DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT, ON GROUNDS RELATING TO 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 PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED, UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL THEN NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

In the event of infringements of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract provided to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be carried out where technically feasible.

Access, Rectification and Erasure

Within the scope of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain, free of charge, information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing and, where applicable, the right to rectification or erasure of this data. You may contact us at any time regarding this and any other questions concerning personal data.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time regarding this. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of the erasure of the data.

If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the exercise, defence or establishment of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its erasure.

If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of your interests and our interests must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been established 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, such data may, apart from being stored, only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence 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 of a Member State.

SSL or TLS Encryption

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the browser’s address bar changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol in your browser’s address bar.

When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to Promotional E-mails

The use of contact details published as part of the legal notice requirements for sending unsolicited advertising and informational materials is hereby objected to. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited transmission of promotional information, for example through spam e-mails.

4. Data Collection on This Website

Cookies
Our websites use so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small data packages and do not cause any damage to your terminal device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (persistent cookies) on your terminal device. Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Persistent cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them yourself or they are automatically deleted by your web browser.

Cookies may originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services provided by third-party companies within websites (e.g. cookies for processing payment services).

Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary because certain website functions would not work without them (e.g. the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies may be used to analyse user behaviour or for advertising purposes.

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide certain functions you have requested (e.g. for the shopping cart function), or to optimise the website (e.g. cookies for measuring the website audience) (“necessary cookies”) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. Where consent to the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG); consent may be withdrawn at any time.

You can configure your browser to inform you when cookies are being set and to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, to exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are disabled, the functionality of this website may be limited.

If additional cookies and services are used on this website, you can find information about them in this Privacy Policy.

Server Log Files
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

Browser type and browser version
Operating system used
Referrer URL
Host name of the accessing computer
Time of the server request
IP address

This data is not combined with other data sources.

This data is collected on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in ensuring the technically error-free presentation and optimisation of its website – the server log files must be recorded for this purpose.

Contact Form
If you send us enquiries via the contact form, the information you provide in the enquiry form, including the contact details you enter there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We will not disclose this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your enquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), where such consent has been requested; consent may be withdrawn at any time.

The data you enter into the contact form will remain with us until you request its erasure, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your enquiry has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

Enquiries by E-mail, Telephone or Fax
If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your enquiry, including all personal data arising from it (name, enquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not disclose this data without your consent.

The data you send to us in connection with enquiries will remain with us until you request its erasure, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

5. Newsletter

Newsletter Distribution to Existing Customers

If you order goods or services from us and provide your e-mail address in this context, we may subsequently use this e-mail address to send you newsletters, provided that we have informed you in advance. In such a case, the newsletter will only contain direct advertising for our own similar goods or services. You may unsubscribe from this newsletter at any time. A corresponding link is provided in every newsletter for this purpose.

The legal basis for sending the newsletter in this case is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR in conjunction with Section 7(3) of the German Act Against Unfair Competition (UWG).

After you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your e-mail address may be stored by us in a blacklist to prevent future mailings to you. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be combined with other data. This serves both your interests and our interests in complying with the statutory requirements governing the sending of newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is not subject to a time limit. You may object to this storage if your interests override our legitimate interest.
