10. Transfer of Your Personal Data


The transfer of your personal data is as described below.
The hosting of the website takes place in Europe. Here, we ensure that data processing is carried out solely in Europe. This is necessary for the operation of the website, as well as for the establishment, execution, and handling of the existing usage contract and can be done without your consent.
A transfer also takes place when we are authorized or obliged to transfer data due to legal regulations and/or official or judicial orders. This can particularly be the case for providing information for the purposes of law enforcement, averting danger or enforcing intellectual property rights.
Insofar as your data is transferred to the necessary extent to service providers, they only have access to your personal data to the extent necessary to fulfill their tasks. These service providers are obligated to treat your personal data in accordance with the applicable data protection laws, particularly the GDPR.
Apart from the aforementioned circumstances, we generally do not transmit your data to third parties without your consent. In particular, we do not transfer personal data to a third country or an international organization.


11. Storage Duration for Personal Data


Regarding the storage duration, we delete personal data as soon as their storage is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the original purpose and there are no longer any legal retention periods. The legal retention periods ultimately constitute the criterion for the final duration of the storage of personal data. After the expiration of these periods, the corresponding data is routinely deleted. If there are retention periods, processing is restricted by blocking the data.


12. References and Links


When accessing internet pages referred to within our website, information such as name, address, email address, browser properties, etc. may be requested again. This Privacy Policy does not govern the collection, transmission, or handling of personal data by third parties.
