The data collected from you will be stored by us for the duration of the business relationship, taking into account existing retention periods.
1.6 Is the collection and storage of my data mandatory or necessary?
We collect and store the data provided by you for the fulfilment of the contract to be concluded and implemented with you. In all other respects, we are obliged to do so in accordance with tax regulations.
2.1 Data processing
2.1.1 General information on the use of the homepage
A use of the internet pages of the Fromberger Zucht- und Sportpferde GmbH is basically possible without active indication of personal data. If a data subject wishes to make use of special services of our company via our website (e.g. the use of the contact form), the processing of personal data may become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, the data subject generally must consent to us processing their data.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address or telephone number of a data subject, always takes place in accordance with legal requirements.
Fromberger Zucht- und Sportpferde GmbH has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures as the controller in order to ensure that the personal data processed via this website is protected as completely as possible. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.
2.1.2 Contact via the website
Due to legal regulations, the website of Fromberger Zucht- und Sportpferde GmbH contains information which enables quick electronic contact to our company as well as direct communication with us. If a data subject contacts the controller by email or via a contact form, any personal data transmitted by the data subject is automatically stored.
Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the controller is stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties. This data will be deleted once the purpose has been achieved, unless legal or official retention periods apply.
2.1.3 Routine deletion and blocking of personal data
We process and store personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the processing purpose or insofar as this is provided for in the GDPR or laws or regulations.
If the processing purpose no longer applies or if a statutory retention period expires, the personal data is deleted routinely and in accordance with the statutory provisions.
2.1.4 Legal basis for processing
Art 6 I (a) GDPR serves our company as a legal basis for processing operations through which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, the processing is based on Art. 6 I b GDPR. The same applies to such processing that is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of enquiries about our products or services.
If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, for example to fulfil tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I (c) GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may become necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.
In addition, processing operations could be based on Article 6 I (f) GDPR if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. Efficient, customer-friendly and high-quality service provision is one of the most justified interests.
2.1.5 Data protection for applications and in the application procedure
We collect and process the personal data of applicants for the purpose of facilitating the application process. Processing may also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant sends corresponding application documents to the responsible person by electronic means, for example by email or via a web form on the website. If the person responsible for processing concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the data transmitted will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions. If the data controller does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents shall be deleted after six months at the latest.
2.2 Rights of the data subject
According to the GDPR, data subjects are entitled to the following rights. If you, as a data subject, wish to exercise one or more of these rights, you can contact our data protection officer or another employee of the controller at any time.
2.2.1 Right to withdraw data protection consent
As a person affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to withdraw your consent to the processing of personal data at any time with effect for the future. An email or other written declaration to us is sufficient for this purpose. You can send your withdrawal to: info@fromberger-hengste.de
2.2.2 Right of access
As a data subject affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right at any time to receive free information from the data controller about the personal data stored about you and a copy of the personal data. The right of access concerns the following information:
Furthermore, the data subject has a right of access to information as to whether personal data has been transferred to a third party or to an international organisation. If this is the case, the data subject has, in addition, the right to obtain information about the appropriate guarantees in connection with the transfer.
2.2.3 The right of rectification
As a data subject affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to request the immediate correction of incorrect personal data concerning you. You also have the right, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to request the completion of incomplete personal data, including by means of a supplementary declaration.
2.2.4 Right to erasure (“Right to be forgotten”)
As a data subject affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to request that the personal data concerning you be deleted immediately, provided that one of the following reasons applies and insofar as the processing is not necessary:
If the personal data has been made public by Fromberger Zucht- und Sportpferde GmbH and if our company is obliged to delete personal data as the controller pursuant to Art. 17 I GDPR, we take appropriate measures, taking into account the available technology and implementation costs, to notify the controllers who process the personal data published, in particular the deletion of all links to these personal data or of copies or replications of this personal data, as far as the processing is not necessary. The data protection officer of Fromberger Zucht und Sportpferde GmbH or another employee will arrange what is necessary in individual cases.
2.2.5 The right to restriction of processing
As a data subject affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to request the restriction of processing if one of the following conditions is met:
2.2.6 The right to data portability
As a person affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to have this data communicated to another controller without hindrance by the controller, provided that the processing is based on the consent provided for in Article 6 I (a) GDPR or Article 9 II (a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6 I (b) GDPR and that the processing is carried out by automated means or provided that the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest or in the exercise of public authority conferred on the controller.
Furthermore, in exercising his or her right to data portability pursuant to Article 20 I GDPR, the data subject shall have the right to have personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and when doing so does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
2.2.7 Right to object
As a data subject affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to object at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning you, which is carried out in order to safeguard a legitimate interest of the person responsible.
This also applies to profiling based on these provisions, whereby Fromberger Zucht- und Sportpferde GmbH points out it does not carry out any profiling.
Fromberger Zucht- und Sportpferde GmbH does not process the personal data in the event of an objection, unless we can prove compelling legitimate reasons for the processing, which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.
If Fromberger Zucht- und Sportpferde GmbH processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for the purpose of such advertising. This also applies to any profiling connected with such direct advertising. If you object to Fromberger Zucht- und Sportpferde GmbH processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes.
2.2.8 Automated individual decision-making including profiling
As a data subject, you are entitled not to be subject to a decision based exclusively on automated processing, including profiling, which has legal effect against you or significantly affects you in a similar manner, provided that the decision
Fromberger Zucht- und Sportpferde GmbH does not use purely automated decision systems with regard to the processing of personal data that have a legal effect on you or significantly impair you in a similar way.
2.2.9 The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
As a data subject affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right of appeal to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State where you are staying, working or suspected of infringing, if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you is contrary to data protection law. Corresponding addresses can be found on the websites of the Federal Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (BFDI): https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/addresses_links-node.html
