I. General Information on Data Processing

1. Scope of Processing Personal Data

We collect and use personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website as well as our content and services. The collection and use of personal data of our users is regularly carried out only with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible for actual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by legal regulations.

2. Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data

If we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing personal data, Art. 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis. In the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures.

If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make the processing of personal data necessary, Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

3. Data Deletion and Storage Duration

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Storage may also occur if this is provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the responsible party is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned regulations expires unless there is a necessity for further storage of the data for a contract conclusion or fulfillment.

II. Provision of the Website and Creation of Log Files

1. Description and Scope of Data Processing

Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the calling computer. The following data is collected:

  • (2) The user's operating system
  • (3) The user's internet service provider
  • (4) The user's IP address
  • (5) Date and time of access

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

2. Legal Basis for Data Processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

3. Purpose of Data Processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to deliver the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must be stored for the duration of the session.

Storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. Additionally, the data is used to optimize the website and ensure the security of our information technology systems. No evaluation of the data for marketing purposes takes place in this context.

These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing according to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

4. Storage Duration

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of data collection for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.

In the case of storing the data in log files, this is the case after no more than seven days. Further storage is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or anonymized so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.

5. Objection and Removal Option

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

V. Rights of the Data Subject

If personal data concerning you is processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you have the following rights vis-à-vis the controller:

1. Right to Information

You can request confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed by us.

If such processing is taking place, you can request information from the controller about the following:

  • (2) the categories of personal data that are processed;
  • (3) the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed or are still being disclosed;

  • (6) the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
  • (7) all available information about the origin of the data if the personal data is not collected from the data subject;
  • (8) the existence of automated decision-making including profiling according to Art. 22(1) and (4) GDPR and – at least in these cases – meaningful information about the logic involved and the significance and envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject.

You have the right to request information on whether the personal data concerning you is transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you can request to be informed about the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer.

2. Right to Rectification

You have the right to rectification and/or completion by the controller if the personal data processed concerning you is incorrect or incomplete. The controller must carry out the rectification without undue delay.

3. Right to Restriction of Processing

Under the following conditions, you can request the restriction of processing of personal data concerning you:

  • (1) if you contest the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
  • (2) the processing is unlawful, and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of its use instead;
  • (3) the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you require it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or
  • (4) if you have objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR pending the verification of whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override your grounds.

If the processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, such data may – with the exception of storage – only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense 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 Union or of a member state.

If the restriction of processing has been restricted according to the aforementioned conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

4. Right to Erasure

a) Obligation to Erase

You can request the controller to erase the personal data concerning you without undue delay, and the controller is obliged to erase this data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies:

  • (1) The personal data concerning you is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
  • (2) You withdraw your consent on which the processing is based according to Art. 6(1)(a) or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
  • (3) You object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(2) GDPR.
  • (4) The personal data concerning you has been unlawfully processed.

If the controller has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged to erase it pursuant to Art. 17(1) GDPR, the controller, taking into account available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers processing the personal data that you have requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copies or replications of, that personal data.

c) Exceptions

The right to erasure does not apply to the extent that processing is necessary

  • (1) for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;
  • (2) for compliance with a legal obligation that requires processing under Union or member state law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
  • (3) for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Art. 9(2)(h) and (i) and Art. 9(3) GDPR;
  • (4) for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, or statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89(1) GDPR in so far as the right referred to in section (a) is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing, or
  • (5) for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

5. Right to Notification

If you have exercised your right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing, the controller is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you has been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.

You have the right to be informed about these recipients by the controller.

6. Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to the controller, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data was provided, provided that

  • (1) the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR and
  • (2) the processing is carried out by automated means.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of others must not be adversely affected by this.

The right to data portability does not apply to 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 to Object

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you, which is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.

The controller will no longer process the personal data concerning you unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing is for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

If the personal data concerning you is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for such purposes.

In connection with the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

8. Right to Withdraw Consent under Data Protection Law

You have the right to withdraw your consent under data protection law at any time. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. You can send the withdrawal either by post, email, or fax to the controller. Please contact our postal address, datenschutz(at)ford-sorg.de, or by fax at 0661 495067.

9. Automated Individual Decision-Making, Including Profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision

  • (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between you and the controller,
  • (2) is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or
  • (3) is based on your explicit consent.

However, these decisions must not be based on special categories of personal data referred to in Art. 9(1) GDPR, unless Art. 9(2)(a) or (g) applies and suitable measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests are in place.

In the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your point of view and to contest the decision.

10. Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.

The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant on the progress and the outcome of the complaint including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR.

XI. Google Analytics 4

This website uses Google Analytics 4, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"), which can be used to analyze the use of websites.
When using Google Analytics 4, "cookies" are typically used. Cookies are text files that are stored on your device and allow an analysis of your use of a website. The information collected by cookies about your use of the website (including the IP address transmitted by your device, shortened by the last digits, see below) is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored and processed there. This may also result in the transmission of information to the servers of Google LLC, located in the USA, where further processing of the information may occur.
When using Google Analytics 4, the IP address transmitted by your device when using the website is always automatically collected and processed in an anonymized manner by default, so that direct personal reference is excluded. This automatic anonymization occurs by shortening the IP address transmitted by your device by Google within member states of the European Union (EU) or other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA).
On our behalf, Google will use this and other information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports (reports) on your website activities and usage behavior, and provide us with other services related to your website usage and internet usage. The IP address transmitted and shortened by your device in the context of Google Analytics 4 will not be merged with other Google data. The data collected in the context of the use of Google Analytics 4 will be retained for 2 months and then deleted.
Google Analytics 4 enables the creation of statistics about the age, gender, and interests of website users based on an evaluation of interest-based advertising and by including third-party information. This allows the identification and distinction of website user groups for the purpose of targeted marketing measures. However, the data collected via the "demographic characteristics" function cannot be attributed to a specific person and thus not to you personally. The data collected via the "demographic characteristics" function will be retained for two months and then deleted.
All the processing described above, in particular the setting of Google Analytics cookies for storing and reading information on the device you use to access the website, will only be carried out if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Without your consent, Google Analytics 4 will not be used during your visit to the website. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your revocation, please deactivate this service using the "cookie consent tool" provided on the website.
We have entered into a data processing agreement with Google for our use of Google Analytics 4, which obliges Google to protect the data of our website users and not to disclose it to third parties.
To ensure compliance with the European level of data protection also in the event of the possible transfer of data from the EU or the EEA to the USA and the possible further processing there, Google relies on the so-called standard contractual clauses of the European Commission, which we have contractually agreed with Google.
Further legal information on Google Analytics 4, including a copy of the standard contractual clauses mentioned, can be found at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de and at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
