10. Legal and contractual obligations to provide data

Each submission of data on your part is completely voluntary, with the exception of the collection of data described under numbers 3 and 4 as a result of your decision to visit the homepage. The submission of data is in any case not a legal or contractual obligation.

11. Transfer of your data

We will only pass on your data to third parties (processing agents) if we are by your consent entitled or legally obliged to do so. The same applies if we receive your data from third parties, i.e. neither from you nor from subcontracted companies.

The consent includes both the collection of data by third parties for us on behalf of our company and the transfer of this data to us, as well as the transfer by us to other companies and the processing by them on our behalf.

The last-metioned applies in particular if we do not carry out special commercial activities ourselves (such as the operation of the homepage, the creation and dispatch of the newsletter), but have sub-contracted all or part of these activities to other companies and these activities are connected with the processing of your data. In these cases, we have contractually obliged these companies to use the data only for the purposes permitted by law.

The processing by third parties is governed by a written contract (data transfer contract), which expressly states that the person in charge of processing processes your data exclusively in accordance with the instructions of the data responsable (us), that he/she does not apply or use them for any purposes other than those specified in the contract, and that he/she does not communicate them to other persons, not even to store them. In this respect, the contract sets out the security measures that the data controller must implement and other various instructions on data processing.

For example, there is a legal obligation to pass on data to police and customs authorities.

We have already taken reasonable and appropriate measures to protect your personal data from loss, destruction, alteration and disclosure by unauthorized persons. These measures allow us in particular:

- To guarantee the confidentiality, correctness, availability and resistance of the systems and services related to data processing.

- To ensure a rapid recovery of the availability of personal data in the event of a physical or technical incident.
