Collection of personal data when using the contact form/inquiry by e-mail

If you send us a contact request by e-mail, we collect and store the e-mail address and the data contained in the e-mail.
The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO, as we have a legitimate interest in answering your inquiries. The deletion of the data takes place when the purpose of the storage has ceased to exist, i.e. after answering your e-mail/contact form inquiry or when the matter related to the inquiry has been finally clarified.
You have the right to revoke the consent given at any time without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent.
Online order / reorder
If you want to order photos, it is necessary for the conclusion of the contract that you provide your personal data, which we need for the processing of your order. Mandatory data necessary for the processing of contracts are marked separately, other data are voluntary. We process the data you provide to process your order. For this purpose, we may pass on your payment data to our house bank. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO.
We are obliged by commercial and tax law to store your address, payment and order data for a period of ten years. However, we will restrict processing after (two years), i.e. your data will only be used to comply with legal obligations.
To prevent unauthorized access by third parties to your personal data, especially financial data, the ordering process is encrypted using SSL technology.
Online applications
If you apply to us in response to a job advertisement or enter your applicant data without an individual application for a specific position in the contact form provided for this purpose, your personal data such as name, address and telephone number will be collected by us and stored for the duration of the selection process. Your data will be used exclusively by authorized persons in the HR department or management for processing within the framework of the selection procedure. Your personal data will not be passed on to third parties.
If a specific position for which you are applying has already been awarded to someone else, but your profile makes you a suitable candidate for a later position or for working in a partner or subsidiary company, we will obtain your express consent before storing or forwarding your application any further, unless you have already consented to such storage or forwarding in your application.
If you send us an unsolicited application using our general contact e-mail address, the content of your application e-mail may be viewed by unauthorized personnel. There is a requirement that the application documents are forwarded unopened immediately to the HR department and the incoming and forwarding e-mail is deleted. If you would like to exclude this, please contact us by telephone before submitting your unsolicited application so that we can provide you with the contact details of the correct contact person.
The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO, as you consent to the above processing of your data when sending the application documents.
Deletion takes place if you revoke your consent to the use of this data without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent, unless statutory retention periods intervene. In these cases, blocking takes the place of deletion. Otherwise, application documents will be deleted after a period of 3 months following the end of the selection process, unless you have expressly agreed to the retention of your application data for future advertisements.
