General legal bases for data processing

Unless a more specific legal basis is named in this privacy policy, we process personal data on the following bases:

• Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent)
• Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (contract / pre-contractual measures)
• Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR (legal obligation)
• Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest, e.g. secure operation of the website, abuse prevention, error analysis)

Recipients and processors

We only pass on personal data if this is necessary for the fulfilment of our tasks, there is a legal obligation, or you have consented. For the operation of this website and our IT, we may use service providers (e.g. hosting, maintenance, IT security). These service providers are contractually obligated as processors under Art. 28 GDPR and may only process data according to our instructions.

Storage period

Unless a more specific storage period has been mentioned within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a justified deletion request or revoke consent, your data will be deleted, provided there are no other legally permissible grounds for storage (e.g. commercial or tax-related retention periods). In such cases, deletion takes place after these grounds no longer apply.

Data transfer to third countries

When integrating third-party services, a transfer of data to countries outside the EU/EEA cannot be ruled out. In such cases, a transfer only takes place if the legal requirements are met (e.g. adequacy decision, appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses, or your express consent).

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent already given at any time. The lawfulness of processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to object to data collection in special cases and to direct advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data on grounds arising from your particular situation; 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 affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct advertising, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is associated with such direct advertising. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct advertising purposes.

Right of complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority regarding the processing of your personal data. The authority responsible for us is in particular:

Der Landesbeauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit Mecklenburg-Vorpommern
Schloss Schwerin, Lennéstraße 1
19053 Schwerin
Email: info@datenschutz-mv.de

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 handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible party, this will only take place insofar as it is technically feasible.

SSL/TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser begins with "https://" and by the lock symbol.

Information, correction, deletion

Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, as well as the right to correction or deletion of this data where applicable.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data. This right exists in particular if:

• you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us (for the duration of verification),
• the processing is unlawful and you demand restriction instead of deletion,
• we no longer need the data, but you need it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims,
• you have lodged an objection under Art. 21 GDPR (for the duration of the balancing of interests).
