Note on the transfer of data to third countries that are not secure in terms of data protection law and the transfer to US companies that are not DPF-certified

When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these countries. We would like to point out that in third countries that are uncertain in terms of data protection law, no level of data protection comparable to that of the EU can be guaranteed.

We would like to point out that the USA, as a safe third country, basically has a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU. Data transfer to the USA is permissible if the recipient has certification under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF) or has suitable additional guarantees. Information on transfers to third countries, including data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy.

We only transfer personal data to external bodies if this is necessary in the context of 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 in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR or if another legal basis allows the data transfer. When using processors, we only share our customers’ personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing contract is concluded.

– the accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;

– the processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests the restriction of their use instead;

– the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by the data subject for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;
