The following notes provide a simple overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit our website. Personal data is any data that can be used to identify you personally. For detailed information on data protection, please refer to our Privacy Policy set out below this text.
Who is responsible for data collection on this website?
Data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator. You can find the operator’s contact details in the legal notice (Impressum) of this website.
How do we collect your data?
Your data is collected, on the one hand, when you provide it to us. This may be data you enter in a contact form, for example.
Other data is collected automatically by our IT systems when you visit the website. This is primarily technical data (e.g. internet browser, operating system, or time of page access). Collection of this data takes place automatically as soon as you enter our website.
What do we use your data for?
Part of the data is collected to ensure the website is provided without errors. Other data may be used to analyse your user behaviour.
What rights do you have regarding your data?
You have the right, at any time and free of charge, to receive information about the origin, recipient, and purpose of your stored personal data. You also have the right to request the rectification, blocking, or erasure of this data. You can contact us at any time regarding this matter, as well as any further questions on data protection, at the address given in the legal notice. You further have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
You also have the right, under certain circumstances, to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. Details can be found in this Privacy Policy under “Right to restriction of processing”.
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data as confidential and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and this Privacy Policy.
When you use this website, various pieces of personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.
We point out that data transmission over the internet (for example, communication by email) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:
MWGFD e.V.
Wittgasse 9
94032 Passau
Email: info_at_mwgfd.org
The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (such as names, email addresses, and similar).
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw consent you have already given at any time. An informal email notification to us is sufficient. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out prior to withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Where data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right, at any time, to object to the processing of your personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. You can find the respective legal basis on which processing is based in this Privacy Policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims (objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR).*
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right, at any time, to object to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection under Art. 21(2) GDPR).*
In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged breach. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance 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 controller, this will only be done where technically feasible.
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser’s address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol in your browser bar.
When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right, at any time and free of charge, to information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, and, where applicable, a right to rectification, blocking, or erasure of this data. You can contact us at any time regarding this matter, as well as any further questions on the subject of personal data, at the address given in the legal notice.
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notice. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data (apart from its storage) may only be processed with your consent, or for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or on grounds of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
The internet pages partly use so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offering more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.
Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser on your next visit.
You can configure your browser so that you are informed when cookies are set and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. If you disable cookies, the functionality of this website may be limited.
Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process, or to provide certain functions you have requested (such as the shopping cart function), are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to provide its services in a technically error-free and optimised manner. Insofar as other cookies (such as cookies for analysing your surfing behaviour) are stored, they are treated separately in this Privacy Policy.
The provider of these pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
This data is not merged with other data sources.
The collection of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimisation of its website; the server log files must be recorded for this purpose.
If you contact us by email, telephone, or fax, your enquiry, including all personal data arising from it (name, enquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, provided that your enquiry is connected with the performance of a contract or is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) and/or on our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), since we have a legitimate interest in the effective handling of enquiries addressed to us.
The data you send to us via contact enquiries remains with us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for the data storage no longer applies (for example, after your request has been completed). Mandatory statutory provisions, in particular statutory retention periods, remain unaffected.
