I. General information
Scope of the processing of personal data
We process the personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functioning website as well as our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users takes place regularly only with the consent of the user. An exception applies in those cases in which it is not possible to obtain prior consent for actual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by statutory provisions.

Data erasure and storage duration
The personal data of the person concerned will be deleted as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. In addition, the data may be stored if the European or national legislator has provided for this in Union regulations, laws or other provisions to which the person responsible is subject. The data shall also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless it is necessary for further storage of the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.


II. Website service
General information
Each time of access our website, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer. The following data is collected:
- Information about the browser type and the version used
- The operating system of the user
- The Internet service provider of the user
- The IP address of the user
- Date and time of access
- referer website from which the user accesses to our website

The data is also stored in the log files of our system. These data are not stored together with other personal data of the user.

Purpose of data processing
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the IP address of the user must remain stored for the duration of the session.
The data is stored in log files in order to ensure the functionality of the website. The data is also used to optimise the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.
These purposes also include our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6 I f EU-GDPR.

Storage Duration
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. In the case of the collection of data to provide the website, this is the case when the session in question has ended.
If the data is stored in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. A storage going beyond this is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or alienated, so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.

Possibility of opposition and removal
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is mandatory for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility for the user to object.

Miscellaneous
We constantly update our data protection guidelines. It is therefore advisable to check here at regular intervals.


III. Ranksystem Hosting
General information
We offer a free hosting of an open source program, the TSN Ranksystem. To request it, there is a web form on our site. If a user makes use of this possibility, the entered data in the input form will be transmitted to us and stored. These data are:
- Name
- E-Mail address
- The IP address of the user
- Date and time of the request
- Dustomer-ID (will be added later)

Your consent will be obtained for the processing of the data within the scope of the sending process and reference will be made to this data protection declaration.

The data will NOT be passed on to third parties in this context. The data will only be used for the processing of the conversation.

Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of the data is the consent of the user Art. 6 I a EU-GDPR.
The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail is Art. 6 I f EU-GDPR.

Purpose of data processing
The processing of the personal data from the input form serves us for the treatment of the request and for the establishment of contact via e-mail for the communication of the entrance data and if necessary communication of maintenance work or disturbances.
The other personal data processed during the sending process serve to prevent misuse of the form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.

Storage Duration
The data is retained for the entire period of the existing hosting relationship. If the hosting ends upon notification by the user, the data will be deleted within a processing period of seven days.
If the hosting ends without notification from the user (e.g. due to inactivity), the data will be deleted at the time the reason for the termination is established.

Possibility of opposition and removal
The user has the possibility at any time to revoke his consent to the processing of personal data informally. A notification should preferably be made by e-mail contact.
In this case, all personal data stored in the course of establishing contact will be deleted.


IV. Rights as data subject
If personal data is processed by you, you are the data subject within the meaning of EU-GDPR and you have the following rights against the responsible person:

1. Right to information
You can ask the responsible person to confirm whether personal data concerning you will be processed by us.
In the event of such processing, you may request the following information from the data controller:
- the purposes for which the personal data are processed;
- the categories of personal data processed;
- the planned storage duration of the personal data concerning you or, if this is not possible, criteria for determining the storage duration;
- the existence of a right to rectify or delete personal data concerning you, a right to limit the processing by the controller or a right to object to such processing;

You have the right to request information as to whether the personal data concerning you will be transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. In this context, you may request to be informed of the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 EU-GDPR in connection with the transfer.

2. Right to rectification
You have the right to have your personal data corrected and/or completed by the data controller if the personal data processed concerning you is inaccurate or incomplete. The data controller must carry out the rectification immediately.

3. Right to limitation of processing
Under the following conditions, you may request that the processing of your personal data be restricted:
- if you dispute the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period of time which allows the person responsible to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
- the processing is unlawful and you refuse to delete the personal data and instead request that the use of the personal data be restricted;
- the data controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you need them to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, OR
- if you have objected to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 I EU-GDPR and it has not yet been established whether the legitimate reasons of the data controller outweigh your reasons.

Where the processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, such data may not be processed, with the exception of their storage, without your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal rights or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of an important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.
If the processing restriction has been restricted according to the above requirements, you will be informed by the person responsible before the restriction is removed.

4. Right to deletion
a) deletion obligation
You may request the data controller to delete the personal data concerning you immediately and the data controller is obliged to delete this data immediately if one of the following reasons applies:
- The personal data concerning you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
- You revoke your consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Art. 6 I a or Art. 9 II a EU-GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
- You object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 I EU-GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 II EU-GDPR.

b) Information to third parties
If the person responsible has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged to delete them in accordance with Art. 17 I EU-GDPR, he shall take appropriate measures, also of a technical nature, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, to inform the persons responsible for data processing who process the personal data that you, as the person concerned, have requested them to delete all links to this personal data or copies or replications of this personal data.

c) Exemptions
The right to deletion does not exist if processing is necessary:
- on the exercise of freedom of expression and information;
- to fulfil a legal obligation which the processing requires under the law of the Union or of the Member States to which the controller is subject, or to perform a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
- for reasons of public interest in the field of public health pursuant to Art. 9 II h and i as well as Art. 9 III EU-GDPR;
- for archive purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89 I EU-GDPR, insofar as the law referred to under Section a) is likely to make it impossible or seriously impair the attainment of the objectives of such processing, or
- for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.

5. Right to information
If you have exercised your right to rectify, cancel or limit the processing of your personal data against the controller, the latter is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed of such rectification, cancellation or limitation, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort.
You have the right against the responsible person to be informed of such recipients.

6. Right to data transferability
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to the responsible person in a structured, common and machine-readable format. In addition, you have the right to communicate this data to another data processor without being hindered by the data processor to whom the personal data was provided, provided that
- the processing is based on a consent pursuant to Art. 6 I a EU-GDPR or Art. 9 II a EU-GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6 I b EU-GDPR and
- the processing is carried out using automated procedures.
In exercising this right, you also have the right to request that the personal data concerning you be transmitted directly by one responsible person to another responsible person, insofar as this is technically feasible. Freedoms and rights of other persons must not be impaired by this.
The right to data transfer shall not apply to the processing of personal data necessary 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 of objection
You have the right, for reasons related to your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you carried out pursuant to Art. 6 I e or f EU-GDPR, including any profiling based on these provisions.
The controller will no longer process the personal data concerning you unless he can prove compelling grounds for processing worthy of protection which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.
If the personal data concerning you are processed for the purpose of direct advertising, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of the personal data concerning you for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is connected with such direct advertising.
If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.
You may exercise your right of objection in relation to the use of Information Society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EG, by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

8. Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law
You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The revocation of the consent does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent up to the revocation.

9. Automated decision in individual cases including profiling
You have the right not to be subject to any decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that has any legal effect on you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision
(1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and the person responsible,
(2) is authorised by legislation of the Union or of the Member States to which the person responsible is subject and contains adequate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, OR
(3) with your explicit consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data according to Art. 9 I EU-GDPR, unless Art. 9 II a or g EU-GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.
In the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall take reasonable steps to safeguard the rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, including at least the right of the controller to obtain the intervention of a person, to present his or her point of view and to contest the decision.

10. Right of appeal to a supervisory authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you shall have the right to complain to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, place of work or place of alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of your personal data is in breach of the EU GDPR.
The supervisory authority to which the complaint was submitted shall inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Article 78 EU-GDPR.
