What is Personal Data?

The term “personal data” is defined in the German Federal Data Protection Act and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It refers to individual information relating to the personal or factual circumstances of an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, your legal name, address, telephone number, or date of birth.

Relevant Legal Bases for the Processing of Personal Data

Where we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations involving personal data, Art. 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.
Where the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations required in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract.
Where the processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
Where vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
Where processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing. Data provided directly by you and data provided by the social network are used exclusively for the purposes of brand management, increasing visibility, and communicating with customers and prospective customers as legitimate interests within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, in order to provide you with information that is of greatest interest to you.

Use of Cookies

As a rule, social networks on which Freiluftmanufaktur GmbH & Co. KG maintains a company profile use cookies. Cookies are data stored by the internet browser on the user’s end device. Cookies may be transmitted to a website when it is accessed, thereby enabling individual users to be identified or associated with the website. Cookies help make the use of social networks easier for users.

It is possible at any time to object to the setting of cookies by changing the relevant settings in the internet browser. Cookies that have already been set can be deleted. Please note that disabling cookies may result in not all functions of a social network being fully available. When a social network is accessed, users of the social network are informed solely by the respective social network’s privacy policy in conjunction with its cookie consent management system regarding processing by means of cookies and similar technologies. This processing does not take place within the scope of joint controllership. We therefore refer below, under “Social Media Company Profiles”, to the privacy policies of the respective social networks.

Duration of Storage of Personal Data

Personal data is stored for the duration of the applicable statutory retention period. After expiry of the relevant period, the data is routinely deleted unless it is still required for the initiation or performance of a contract or unless we have a legitimate interest in continued processing.

Routine Deletion and Restriction of Personal Data

The controller processes and stores the personal data of the data subject only for as long as is necessary to achieve the purpose of storage. Storage may also take place where this is provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the controller is subject. As soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply or a retention period prescribed by the aforementioned provisions expires, the personal data is routinely restricted or deleted.

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:

Right of Access pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR

You may request confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed by us. Where such processing takes place, you may request the following information from the controller:

the purposes for which the personal data is processed;
the categories of personal data being processed;
the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your personal data has been or will be disclosed;
the envisaged period for which your personal data will be stored or, if specific information is not possible, the criteria used to determine that period;
the existence of a right to rectification or erasure of your personal data, a right to restriction of processing by the controller, or a right to object to such processing;
the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
all available information concerning the source of the data where the personal data was not collected from the data subject;
the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, pursuant to Art. 22(1) and (4) GDPR and, at least in those cases, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject.

You have the right to request information as to whether your personal data is transferred to a third country or an international organisation. In this context, you may request to be informed of the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR relating to the transfer.

Right to Rectification pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR

You have the right to obtain rectification and/or completion from the controller if the personal data concerning you that is being processed is inaccurate or incomplete. The controller must carry out the rectification without undue delay.

Right to Erasure pursuant to Art. 17 GDPR

You may request that the controller erase your personal data without undue delay, and the controller is obliged to erase such data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies:

The personal data concerning you is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
You withdraw your consent on which the processing is based pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, and there is no other legal ground for the processing.
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.
The personal data concerning you has been unlawfully processed.
The personal data concerning you must be erased in order to comply with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.
The personal data concerning you was collected in relation to the offer of information society services referred to in Art. 8(1) GDPR.

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

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

for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;
for compliance with a legal obligation which 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;
for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Art. 9(2)(h) and (i) and Art. 9(3) GDPR;
for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, or statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89(1) GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in paragraph 1 is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing; or
for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.

Right to Restriction of Processing pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR

Under the following conditions, you may request restriction of the processing of your personal data:

if you contest the accuracy of your personal data for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
if the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of its use instead;
if the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you require it for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims; or
if you have objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR and it has not yet been established whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override your grounds.

Where processing of your personal data has been restricted, such data may, with the exception of storage, 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 for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State. Where restriction of processing has been obtained under the above conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction of processing is lifted.

Right to Notification pursuant to Art. 19 GDPR

If you have exercised your right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing vis-à-vis the controller, the controller is obliged to communicate such rectification or erasure of data or restriction of processing to all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you has been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed by the controller about those recipients.

Right to Data Portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR

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 such data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data was provided, where:

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
the processing is carried out by automated means.

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

Right to Object pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR

You have the right, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to object to the processing of your personal data based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on those provisions. The controller shall no longer process your personal data unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or unless the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.

Where your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such marketing purposes; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for such purposes.

In the context of 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.

Right to Withdraw Consent pursuant to Art. 7(3) GDPR

You have the right to withdraw your data protection consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR

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 your personal data infringes the GDPR.

The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the progress and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR.

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:

is necessary for entering into or performing a contract between you and the controller;
is authorised 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
is based on your explicit consent.

However, such decisions may 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 your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests are in place.

In the cases referred to in points 1 and 3 above, the controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights, freedoms, and legitimate interests, including 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.
