Privacy Policy

​

We are delighted by your interest in our company. Data protection is of particular importance to Louisa Sophia Drgala. The use of the internet pages of Louisa Sophia Drgala is generally possible without any indication of personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to use special services of our company via our website, processing of personal data may be necessary. If the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address, or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in compliance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to Louisa Sophia Drgala. Through this privacy policy, our company aims to inform the public about the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. Furthermore, this privacy policy enlightens data subjects about their rights.

Louisa Sophia Drgala, as the controller responsible for processing, has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. However, internet-based data transmissions can generally have security vulnerabilities, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, it is open to every data subject to transmit personal data to us using alternative methods, such as by phone.

• Definitions

• The privacy policy of Louisa Sophia Drgala is based on the terminology used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our privacy policy aims to be easily readable and understandable for the public, as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terms used in advance.

In this privacy policy, we use the following terms:

a) Personal Data

Personal data refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as the "data subject"). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more specific features expressing the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.

b) Data Subject

A data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.

c) Processing

Processing is any operation or set of operations performed on 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.

d) Restriction of Processing

Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.

e) Profiling

Profiling is any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of such data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning job performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location, or movements of that natural person.

f) Pseudonymization

Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in a manner that, without additional information, the personal data cannot be attributed to a specific data subject. Additional information must be kept separately and subject to technical and organizational measures ensuring that the personal data cannot be assigned to an identified or identifiable natural person.

g) Controller

Controller, or data controller, refers to a natural or legal person, authority, agency, or other body that, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data. If the purposes and means of this processing are determined by Union law or the laws of Member States, the controller or the specific criteria for their appointment may be provided for by Union law or the laws of Member States.

h) Processor

Processor, or data processor, is a natural or legal person, authority, agency, or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

i) Recipient

Recipient is a natural or legal person, authority, agency, or other body to whom personal data is disclosed, whether or not they are a third party. However, authorities that may receive personal data within the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union law or the laws of Member States are not considered recipients.

j) Third Party

Third party refers to a natural or legal person, authority, agency, or other body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor, and the persons authorized to process personal data under the direct responsibility of the controller or the processor.

k) Consent

Consent is any freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous expression of will, in the form of a statement or clear affirmative action, by which the data subject indicates agreement to the processing of their personal data for a specific purpose.

• Cookies

• The websites of Louisa Sophia Drgala use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on a computer system via an internet browser.

Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a unique cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string through which websites and servers can be assigned to the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other internet browsers that contain different cookies. A specific internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.

By using cookies, Louisa Sophia Drgala can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

Through a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized for the user. Cookies allow us, as mentioned before, to recognize the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website. The user of a website that uses cookies, for example, does not have to enter access data each time they visit the website because this is taken over by the website and the cookie stored on the user's computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online shop. The online shop remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.

The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of a corresponding setting of the internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies already set can be deleted at any time via an internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the used internet browser, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.

 

• Collection of General Data and Information

• The website of Louisa Sophia Drgala automatically collects a series of general data and information with each visit by an individual or an automated system. These general data and information are stored in the server's log files. The collected data may include (1) types and versions of browsers used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (known as the referrer), (4) the subpages accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Internet Protocol (IP) address, (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) other similar data and information that serve the purpose of preventing risks in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

Louisa Sophia Drgala does not draw conclusions about the individual from the use of this general data and information. Instead, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website and its advertising, (3) ensure the ongoing functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the necessary information in the event of a cyber attack. These anonymously collected data and information are evaluated statistically by Louisa Sophia Drgala to increase data protection and data security in our company, ultimately ensuring an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data from server log files are stored separately from any personal data provided by an individual.

• Contact Options via the Website

• The website of Louisa Sophia Drgala, in compliance with legal requirements, provides information facilitating rapid electronic contact with our company, including a general electronic mail (email) address. If an individual contacts the data controller via email or through a contact form on a voluntary basis, the personal data transmitted by the individual are automatically stored. Such voluntarily provided personal data are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the individual. There is no disclosure of this personal data to third parties.

• Comment function on the blog on the website

• Louisa Sophia Drgala provides users with the opportunity to leave individual comments on specific blog posts on the website of the data controller. A blog is a publicly accessible portal on a website where one or more individuals, known as bloggers or web-bloggers, can post articles or express thoughts in blog posts. Typically, these blog posts can be commented on by third parties.

When an individual leaves a comment on the published blog on this website, information such as the comments left by the individual, the time of comment entry, and the chosen username (pseudonym) of the individual are stored and published. Additionally, the IP address assigned by the Internet Service Provider (ISP) of the individual is logged. This storage of the IP address is done for security reasons and in case the individual violates the rights of third parties or posts unlawful content through a submitted comment. The storage of this personal data is in the legitimate interest of the data controller, allowing them to potentially exculpate themselves in the event of a legal violation. There is no disclosure of these collected personal data to third parties unless such disclosure is legally required or serves the legal defense of the data controller.

• Subscription to comments on the blog on the website

• Comments submitted on Louisa Sophia Drgala's blog can generally be subscribed to by third parties. In particular, there is the option for a commentator to subscribe to subsequent comments on a specific blog post.

If an individual chooses the option to subscribe to comments, the data controller sends an automatic confirmation email to verify, through the double-opt-in procedure, whether the owner of the provided email address has indeed opted for this option. The option to subscribe to comments can be terminated at any time.

• Routine erasure and blocking of personal data

• The data controller processes and stores the personal data of the individual only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or as stipulated by the European legislator or another competent legislator in laws or regulations to which the data controller is subject.

Once the purpose of storage is no longer applicable or a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another relevant legislator expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with legal requirements.

d) Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten)

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, to demand from the data controller the immediate erasure of personal data concerning them if one of the following reasons applies and the processing is not necessary:

• The personal data have been collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which they are no longer necessary.

• The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(2) GDPR.

The employee of Louisa Sophia Drgala will ensure that the erasure request is promptly complied with.

If the personal data have been disclosed by Louisa Sophia Drgala and our company, as the data controller, is obliged to erase the personal data according to Art. 17(1) GDPR, Louisa Sophia Drgala will, taking into account available technology and implementation costs, take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform other data controllers processing the disclosed personal data that the data subject has requested the erasure of all links to, or copies or replications of, those personal data, as long as the processing is not necessary. The employee of Louisa Sophia Drgala will arrange the necessary actions on a case-by-case basis.

 

e) Right to Restriction of Processing

Every individual whose personal data is processed has the right, as granted by the European legislator, to request the restriction of processing from the controller under the following conditions:

• The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the individual, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.

• The processing is unlawful, and the individual opposes the erasure of the personal data, instead requesting the restriction of its use.

• The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but the individual requires it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

If any of the aforementioned conditions are met, and an individual wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by Louisa Sophia Drgala, they may contact an employee of the data controller at any time. An employee of Louisa Sophia Drgala will initiate the restriction of processing.

f) Right to Data Portability

Every individual whose personal data is processed has the right, as granted by the European legislator, to receive the personal data concerning them, which they have provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. They also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data was provided, where the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, provided that the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Furthermore, in exercising their right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20(1) GDPR, the individual has the right to have personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and as long as it does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

To assert the right to data portability, the individual may contact an employee of Louisa Sophia Drgala at any time.

 

g) Right to Object

Every individual affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, to object at any time, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them, based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

Louisa Sophia Drgala will no longer process the personal data in the event of objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

If Louisa Sophia Drgala processes personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for such marketing. This also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to the processing for direct marketing purposes, Louisa Sophia Drgala will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.

Furthermore, the data subject has the right, for reasons arising from their particular situation, to object to the processing of personal data concerning them at Louisa Sophia Drgala for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.

To exercise the right to object, the data subject can directly contact any employee of Louisa Sophia Drgala or another employee. The data subject is also free, in connection with the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to exercise their right to object using automated procedures where technical specifications are used.

h) Automated Decisions on an Individual Basis, Including Profiling

Every individual affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning them or similarly significantly affects them, unless the decision (1) is necessary for entering into or the performance of a contract between the data subject and the data controller, or (2) is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the data controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the data subject's rights, freedoms, and legitimate interests, or (3) is based on the explicit consent of the data subject.

If the decision (1) for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract between the data subject and the controller is necessary or (2) it is made with the explicit consent of the data subject, Louisa Sophia Drgala takes appropriate measures to safeguard the rights, freedoms, and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the controller, to express one's own point of view, and to contest the decision.

Should the data subject wish to assert rights related to automated decisions, they can contact an employee of the data controller at any time.

i) Right to revoke a data protection consent

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, granted by the European legislator, to revoke consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

If the data subject wishes to exercise their right to revoke consent, they can contact an employee of the data controller at any time.

• Legal basis for processing

• Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract with the data subject, as is the case, for example, in processing operations necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of any other service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, such as in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation by which the processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our company were injured and his name, age, health insurance data, or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital, or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis 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 outweigh such interests. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this regard, it was considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47 sentence 2 GDPR).

• Legitimate interests pursued by the controller or a third party in the processing

• If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, our legitimate interest is the execution of our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and shareholders.

• Duration for which the personal data will be stored

• The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective legal retention period. After the expiration of the period, the corresponding data will be routinely deleted unless they are no longer necessary for contract fulfillment or initiation.

• Legal or contractual provisions for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide personal data; possible consequences of non-provision

• We inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g., tax regulations) or may result from contractual provisions (e.g., information about the contract partner). In some cases, it may be necessary for the conclusion of a contract that a data subject provides us with personal data that must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obligated to provide us with personal data when our company enters into a contract with them. Failure to provide the personal data would result in the contract with the data subject not being concluded. Before providing personal data, the data subject must contact one of our employees. Our employee will provide the data subject with information on a case-by-case basis about whether the provision of personal data is legally or contractually required or necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data, and what the consequences of non-provision of personal data would be.

• Existence of automated decision-making

• As a responsible company, we refrain from automated decision-making or profiling.

This data protection declaration was created with the data protection declaration generator of DGD Deutsche Gesellschaft für Datenschutz GmbH, which acts as an external data protection officer in Straubing, in cooperation with the lawyer for data protection law Christian Solmecke.
