We consider it our primary task to maintain the confidentiality of the personal data you provide and to protect it from unauthorized access. We therefore take the utmost care and apply the latest security standards to ensure maximum protection of your personal data.

As a company under private law, we are subject to the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the provisions of the Data Protection Act (DSG). We have taken technical and organizational measures to ensure that the regulations on data protection are observed both by us and by our external service providers.

Definitions

2. processing

"Processing" means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

3. restriction of processing

"Restriction of processing" is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting its future processing.

4. profiling

5. pseudonymization

"Pseudonymization" means the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

6. file system

"File system" means any structured collection of personal data that is accessible according to specific criteria, regardless of whether this collection is managed centrally, decentrally or according to functional or geographical aspects.

7. responsible person

"Controller" means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.

2. processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract
3. processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject
4. processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person
5. processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller
6. processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data, in particular where the data subject is a child.

To do so, you must generally provide additional personal data that we use to provide the respective service and to which the aforementioned data processing principles apply.

Newsletter

1. With your consent, you can subscribe to our newsletter, with which we inform you about our current interesting offers. The advertised goods and services are named in the declaration of consent. The newsletter is sent via the third-party provider "rapidmail.at". We use the so-called double opt-in procedure to register for our newsletter. This means that after you have registered, we will send you an email to the email address you have provided in which we ask you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. If you do not confirm your registration within 24 hours, your information will be blocked and automatically deleted after one month. In addition, we store the IP addresses you use and the times of registration and confirmation. The purpose of this procedure is to be able to prove your registration and, if necessary, to clarify any possible misuse of your personal data.

2. The only mandatory information for sending the newsletter is your e-mail address. The provision of further, separately marked data is voluntary and is used to address you personally. After your confirmation, we will save your e-mail address for the purpose of sending you the newsletter. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

3. The only mandatory information for sending the newsletter is your e-mail address. The provision of further, separately marked data is voluntary and is used to address you personally. After your confirmation, we will save your e-mail address for the purpose of sending you the newsletter. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

4. You can revoke your consent to the sending of the newsletter at any time and unsubscribe from the newsletter. You can declare your revocation by clicking on the link provided in every newsletter e-mail, via this form on the website, by e-mail to info@burgerstein.at or by sending a message to the contact details given in the imprint.

5. We would like to point out that we evaluate your user behavior when sending the newsletter. For this evaluation, the e-mails sent contain so-called web beacons or tracking pixels, which are one-pixel image files stored on our website. For the evaluations, we link the above-mentioned data and the web beacons with your e-mail address and an individual ID. The data is collected exclusively in pseudonymized form, i.e. the IDs are not linked to your other personal data, and direct personal identification is excluded. You can object to this tracking at any time by clicking on the separate link provided in every e-mail or by informing us via another contact channel. The information will be stored for as long as you have subscribed to the newsletter. After unsubscribing, we store the data purely statistically and anonymously.

4. Google Analytics

If you give your consent, we process your personal data with the service Google Analytics, Google LLC, Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, as joint controllers for the purpose of error analysis and statistical evaluation of our website. Failure to give your consent has no direct effect on the function of the website, but without statistical data it will be more difficult for us to further develop the website. You can revoke any consent you have already given by changing the data protection settings.

We enable the service to collect connection data, data from your web browser and data about the content accessed, as well as the execution of analysis software and the storage of data on your end device. The service anonymizes the collected data immediately after collection and provides us with the anonymous data in the form of statistics for evaluation. We use these statistics to correct errors and to further develop our website. The data on your device is stored for a period of up to two years.

The legal basis for data processing is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. The Google Group transfers your personal data to the USA. The legal basis for the data transfer to the USA is your consent in accordance with Art. 49 para. 1 lit. a in conjunction with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You were already informed before giving your consent that the USA does not have a level of data protection corresponding to the standards of the EU. In particular, US intelligence services can access your data without you being informed and without you being able to take legal action against this. For this reason, the European Court of Justice has declared the previous adequacy decision (Privacy Shield) invalid in a ruling.
