 1.2 Legal basis for processing personal data

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) protects the fundamental rights and freedoms of natural persons and in particular their right to the protection of their personal data. Personal data are any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

GDPR Article 6 (1a) provides the legal basis where we obtain your consent for the processing of personal data.

GDPR Article 6 (1b) provides the legal basis for processing your personal data that is required for the fulfilment of a contract with you. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures.

GDPR Article 6 (1c) provides the legal basis for processing your personal data where this is necessary to comply with a legal obligation that is applicable to our company.

GDPR Article 6 (1f) provides the legal basis for processing your personal data where processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and where your interests, fundamental rights and freedoms do not outweigh the aforementioned interests.

 

1.3 Disclosure of data

We will only disclose your data within Baufeld-Austria GmbH if this serves to comply with your request or your interest. We will always maintain the confidentiality of your data.

Your personal data will only be disclosed to third parties if you have given your explicit consent (Article 6 (1a) GDPR), if this is necessary for the fulfilment of a contractual relationship with you (Article 6 (1b) GDPR), if there is a legal obligation to do so ( Article 6 (1c) GDPR) or

if the disclosure is necessary to protect legitimate business interests and to assert, exercise or defend legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in not disclosing your data ( Article 6 (1f) GDPR).

 

1.4 Cooperation with data processors

We carefully select the service providers who process personal data on our behalf. Insofar as we commission third parties with the processing of personal data on the basis of a contract processing agreement, this will be done in compliance with Article 28 GDPR.

 

1.5 Storage period in general

Unless an explicit storage period is specified when collecting data, we are obliged to delete personal data as soon as the purpose of their processing no longer exists, in compliance with Article 5 (1e) GDPR.

We would like to point out in this connection that statutory retention obligations that we are subject to constitute a legitimate purpose for the further processing of the personal data covered by them.

As a matter of principle, we store and retain data in a person-related form until the business relationship ends or until applicable guarantee, warranty or limitation periods expire, and beyond that until the end of any legal disputes requiring the data as evidence or, in any case, until the end of the third year after the last contact with a business partner.

 

1.6 Your rights

As a matter of principle, you have the following rights:

Right to withdraw consent in accordance with Article 7 (3) GDPR: You can withdraw consent you have given at any time. The withdrawal of your consent will not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out until such withdrawal.

Right of access in accordance with Article 15 GDPR: You may request information about the personal data we process (e.g. the purposes of processing, category of personal data, categories of recipients etc.).

Right to rectification in accordance with Article 16 GDPR: You may request the rectification of any inaccurate personal data relating to you with immediate effect. You can also request that incomplete data be supplemented.

Right to erasure in accordance with Article 17 GDPR: You can demand that we erase personal data relating to you with immediate effect. This right will not apply where processing is necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for the performance of a task performed in the public interest, in the exercise of official authority, for reasons of public interest in the field of public health, for archiving purposes in the public interest or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Right to restriction of processing in accordance with Article 18 GDR): You may request us to restrict processing if you dispute the accuracy of your personal data, if processing is unlawful but you object to the erasure of the personal data, if your data is no longer required by us but you need it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims or if you have objected to the processing in accordance with Article 21 GDPR.

Right to data portability in accordance with Article 20 GDPR: You have the right to receive personal data relating to you in a structured, commonly used or machine-readable format. However, this only covers your personal data that we have processed with the help of automated procedures after your consent or on the basis of a contract.

Right to object in accordance with Article 21 GDPR: You may object to the processing of your personal data processed on the basis of our legitimate interest, insofar as there are grounds for doing so that arise from your particular situation or the objection is raised against direct advertising. This right does not apply if we have compelling legitimate grounds for further processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.

Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority in accordance with Article 77 GDPR: You may lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR.

The relevant supervisory authority in Austria is:
