Privacy Policy

Introduction and Overview

We have drafted this privacy policy (version 09.05.2024-322784786) to explain to you, in accordance with the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and applicable national laws, which personal data (hereinafter referred to as "data") we as the data controller - and the data processors commissioned by us (e.g., providers) - process, will process in the future, and what legal options you have. The terms used are to be understood in a gender-neutral manner.

In short: We provide comprehensive information about the data we process about you.

Privacy policies usually sound very technical and use legal terminology. However, this privacy policy aims to describe the most important things to you as simply and transparently as possible. Where transparency is beneficial, technical terms are explained in a reader-friendly manner, links to further information are provided, and graphics are used. In doing so, we inform in clear and simple language that we only process personal data within the scope of our business activities if there is a corresponding legal basis. This is certainly not possible if one provides as concise, unclear, and legally-technical explanations as are often standard on the internet when it comes to data protection. I hope you find the following explanations interesting and informative, and perhaps there is some information that you did not know before.

If you still have questions, we kindly ask you to contact the responsible entity mentioned below or in the imprint, follow the existing links, and view further information on third-party sites. Our contact details can of course also be found in the imprint.

Scope

This privacy policy applies to all personal data processed by us in the company and to all personal data processed by companies commissioned by us (data processors). By personal data, we mean information within the meaning of Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR, such as a person's name, email address, and postal address. The processing of personal data ensures that we can offer and bill our services and products, whether online or offline. The scope of this privacy policy includes:

all online presences (websites, online shops) operated by us social media presences and email communication mobile apps for smartphones and other devices In short: The privacy policy applies to all areas in which personal data is structuredly processed in the company via the channels mentioned above. If we enter into legal relationships with you outside of these channels, we will inform you separately if necessary.

Legal Basis

In the following privacy policy, we provide you with transparent information on the legal principles and regulations, i.e., the legal basis of the General Data Protection Regulation, which enable us to process personal data. Regarding EU law, we refer to REGULATION (EU) 2016/679 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 27 April 2016. You can of course read this EU General Data Protection Regulation online on EUR-Lex, the access to EU law, at https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/DE/ALL/?uri=celex%3A32016R0679.

We only process your data if at least one of the following conditions applies:

Consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR): You have given us your consent to process data for a specific purpose. An example would be storing the data you entered in a contact form. Contract (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR): To fulfill a contract or pre-contractual obligations with you, we process your data. For example, if we conclude a purchase contract with you, we need personal information in advance. Legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c) GDPR): If we are subject to a legal obligation, we process your data. For example, we are legally obliged to keep invoices for accounting purposes. These usually contain personal data. Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR): In the case of legitimate interests that do not restrict your fundamental rights, we reserve the right to process personal data. For example, we need to process certain data to operate our website securely and economically efficiently. This processing is therefore a legitimate interest. Other conditions such as the exercise of recording in the public interest and exercising public authority as well as protecting vital interests generally do not apply to us. If such a legal basis should be relevant, it will be indicated at the appropriate point.

In addition to the EU regulation, national laws also apply:

In Austria, this is the Federal Act concerning the Protection of Personal Data (Data Protection Act), abbreviated as DSG. In Germany, the Federal Data Protection Act, abbreviated as BDSG, applies. If further regional or national laws are applicable, we will inform you in the following sections.

Contact details of the controller

If you have any questions about data protection or the processing of personal data, you will find below the contact details of the responsible person or entity: Urklang e.V. Strümpfelbacher Str. 60, 70327 Stuttgart

Email: info@urklang.org

Storage Period

The general criterion for us is that we only store personal data for as long as it is absolutely necessary to provide our services and products. This means that we delete personal data as soon as the reason for data processing no longer exists. In some cases, we are legally obliged to store certain data even after the original purpose has ceased, for example, for accounting purposes.

If you wish to have your data deleted or revoke your consent to data processing, the data will be deleted as soon as possible and to the extent that there is no obligation to store it.

We will inform you below about the specific duration of each data processing, if we have further information about it.

Rights according to the General Data Protection Regulation

According to Articles 13 and 14 of the GDPR, we inform you about the following rights that you have, to ensure fair and transparent processing of data:

According to Article 15 of the GDPR, you have the right to information about whether we process data about you. If so, you have the right to receive a copy of the data and to obtain the following information:

  • the purpose for which we process the data;

  • the categories, i.e., the types of data processed;

  • who receives this data, and if the data is transferred to third countries, how security can be guaranteed;

  • how long the data will be stored;

  • the existence of the right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing, and the right to object to processing;

  • the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (links to these authorities can be found below);

  • the origin of the data if we did not collect it from you;

  • whether profiling is performed, i.e., whether data is automatically evaluated to create a personal profile of you.

According to Article 16 of the GDPR, you have the right to rectify the data, which means that we must correct data if you find errors.

According to Article 17 of the GDPR, you have the right to erasure ("right to be forgotten"), which means that you may request the deletion of your data.

According to Article 18 of the GDPR, you have the right to restrict processing, which means that we may only store the data but not use it further.

According to Article 20 of the GDPR, you have the right to data portability, which means that we must provide you with your data in a commonly used format upon request.

According to Article 21 of the GDPR, you have the right to object, which, when enforced, results in a change in processing.

If the processing of your data is based on Article 6(1)(e) (public interest, exercise of public authority) or Article 6(1)(f) (legitimate interest), you may object to the processing. We will then review as soon as possible whether we can legally comply with this objection.

If data is used for direct marketing purposes, you may object to this type of data processing at any time. We may no longer use your data for direct marketing thereafter.

If data is used for profiling purposes, you may object to this type of data processing at any time. We may no longer use your data for profiling thereafter.

According to Article 22 of the GDPR, you may, under certain circumstances, have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing (e.g., profiling).

According to Article 77 of the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint. This means that you can complain to the supervisory authority at any time if you believe that the processing of personal data violates the GDPR.

In summary: You have rights - do not hesitate to contact the responsible entity listed above with us!

If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or your data protection rights have been violated in any other way, you can complain to the supervisory authority. For Austria, this is the Data Protection Authority, whose website you can find at https://www.dsb.gv.at/. In Germany, there is a data protection officer for each federal state. For more information, you can contact the Federal Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (BfDI). For our company, the following local data protection authority is responsible:

Payment Provider Introduction

Payment Provider Privacy Policy Summary 👥 Data subjects: Visitors to the website 🤝 Purpose: Enablement and optimization of the payment process on our website 📓 Processed data: Data such as name, address, bank details (account number, credit card number, passwords, TANs, etc.), IP address, and contract data More details can be found with the respective payment provider tool. 📅 Storage duration: depends on the payment provider used ⚖️ Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of a contract) What is a payment provider?

We use online payment systems on our website, which enable us and you to have a secure and smooth payment process. In this process, personal data may be sent to, stored, and processed by the respective payment provider. Payment providers are online payment systems that allow you to place an order via online banking. The payment transaction is then carried out by the payment provider chosen by you. We then receive information about the payment made. Any user who has an active online banking account with PIN and TAN can use this method. There are hardly any banks that do not offer or accept such payment methods anymore.

Why do we use payment providers on our website?

We naturally want to provide the best possible service with our website and our integrated online shop so that you feel comfortable on our site and use our offers. We know that your time is valuable and that payment transactions, in particular, must work quickly and smoothly. For these reasons, we offer you various payment providers. You can choose your preferred payment provider and pay in the usual manner.


What data is processed?

The specific data processed depends, of course, on the respective payment provider. However, generally, data such as name, address, bank details (account number, credit card number, passwords, TANs, etc.) are stored. These are necessary data to even be able to carry out a transaction. In addition, contract data and user data, such as when you visit our website, what content you are interested in, or which subpages you click on, may also be stored. Also, your IP address and information about your computer usage are stored by most payment providers.

The data is usually stored and processed on the servers of the payment providers. We as website operators do not receive this data. We are only informed whether the payment has been successful or not. For identity and credit checks, it may happen that payment providers forward data to the appropriate authority. For all payment transactions, the terms and conditions and data protection provisions of the respective provider always apply. Therefore, please always also refer to the general terms and conditions and the privacy policy of the payment provider. You also have the right at any time, for example, to have data deleted or corrected. Please contact the respective service provider regarding your rights (right of withdrawal, right to information, and right to object).

Duration of data processing

We will inform you about the duration of data processing further below if we have more information about it. In general, we only process personal data for as long as it is absolutely necessary for the provision of our services and products. If, for example, it is legally required, such as in the case of accounting, this storage period can also be exceeded. For example, we keep accounting documents (invoices, contracts, bank statements, etc.) related to a contract for 10 years (§ 147 AO) and other relevant business documents for 6 years (§ 247 HGB) after they occur.

Right to object

You always have the right to information, correction, and deletion of your personal data. If you have any questions, you can also contact the responsible person of the payment provider at any time. You can find contact details either in our specific privacy policy or on the website of the respective payment provider.

You can delete, deactivate, or manage cookies used by payment providers for their functions in your browser. Depending on the browser you use, this works differently. Please note, however, that the payment process may no longer work if you do so.

Legal basis

So, for processing contractual or legal relationships (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR), we offer, in addition to conventional bank/credit institutions, other payment service providers. In the privacy policies of the individual payment providers (such as Amazon Payments, Apple Pay, or Discover), you are provided with a detailed overview of data processing and data storage. You can also always contact the responsible parties with questions about data protection issues.

You can find information about specific payment providers - if available - in the following sections.

 

PayPal Privacy Policy

PayPal Privacy Policy Summary 👥 Data subjects: Website visitors

 🤝 Purpose: Optimization of the payment process on our website 

📓 Processed data: Data such as name, address, bank details (account number, credit card number, passwords, TANs, etc.), IP address, and contract data may be processed. More details can be found further in this privacy policy. 

📅 Storage duration: Data is generally stored until the cooperation with PayPal is terminated 

⚖️ Legal basis: Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR (contract processing), Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent)

What is PayPal?

We use the online payment service PayPal on our website. The service provider is the American company PayPal Inc. For the European area, the company PayPal Europe (S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg) is responsible.

With PayPal, all users can send and receive money electronically. The company was founded in 1998 and now counts over 325 million active customers, making it one of the most well-known and largest online payment service providers worldwide.

Why do we use PayPal for our website?

There are various reasons why we use PayPal and offer it on our website. Since PayPal is one of the most well-known online payment providers, many of our website visitors also use and trust this service. PayPal also offers high-security standards for digital money transfers. The service uses various encryption methods to protect your personal data as best as possible. We also appreciate the ease of use of PayPal and the possibility of international payments in various currencies. Transactions usually go through very quickly, which is an advantage for both us and you as a customer.

What data is processed by PayPal?

In their privacy policy, PayPal distinguishes various categories of personal data that can be processed through the use of the service. These include registration and contact details, identification and signature data, payment information, information on imported contacts, data from your account profile, device data such as your IP address, location data, and so-called derived data. These are understood to be information that can be derived from transactions or other data. These can include purchase habits, behavioral patterns, creditworthiness, or personal preferences.

There are also personal data that are collected by third parties (such as identity verification providers, fraud detection providers, or your bank). These data include information from credit agencies, transaction data, information on legal regulations, technical usage data, location data, and derived data again.

PayPal and its partners also use tracking technologies such as cookies, pixel tags, web beacons, and widgets to recognize you as a user, customize content, and perform analyses for interest-based advertising.

How long and where are the data stored?

Generally, PayPal stores data for as long as necessary to fulfill its obligations and within the scope of the purpose. Personal data necessary for the customer relationship will be kept for up to 10 years after the relationship ends. If PayPal is subject to a legal obligation, the retention period of personal data is determined by the applicable law (e.g., insolvency law). PayPal also stores personal data for as long as necessary if retention is advisable in view of legal disputes.

As PayPal is a globally operating company, the service also has data centers worldwide where your data may be stored. This means that your data may also be stored on PayPal servers outside your country and outside the scope of the GDPR.

How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

You have the right to access, rectify, or delete and restrict the processing of your personal data at any time. You can also revoke your consent to data processing at any time.

If you want to generally disable, delete, or manage cookies, you will find the corresponding links to the instructions of the most popular browsers under the "Cookies" section.

Legal basis

From our perspective, there is a legitimate interest in integrating an external payment service provider like PayPal to make our offer more attractive and to improve it technically and economically. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests). Please note that you can only use PayPal if you enter into a contractual relationship with PayPal. Here, it may be necessary to provide further data protection and contractual declarations (e.g., consent).

PayPal also processes data from you in the USA, among other locations. We would like to point out that, in the opinion of the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfers to the USA. This can be associated with various risks for the legality and security of data processing.

As a basis for data processing with recipients based in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, especially in the USA) or a transfer of data there, PayPal uses so-called standard contractual clauses (= Art. 46. Para. 2 and 3 GDPR). Standard contractual clauses (Standard Contractual Clauses - SCC) are model templates provided by the EU Commission and are intended to ensure that your data also comply with European data protection standards when transferred and stored in third countries (such as the USA). Through these clauses, PayPal undertakes to comply with the European data protection level when processing your relevant data, even if the data is stored, processed, and managed in the USA. These clauses are based on an implementing decision of the EU Commission. You can find the decision and the corresponding standard contractual clauses, among other places, here: [link to the EU's website].

For more information on the standard contractual clauses and the data processed by using PayPal, please refer to the privacy policy at [link to PayPal's privacy policy].

Closing words

Congratulations! If you're reading these lines, you've really "fought through" our entire privacy policy, or at least scrolled this far. As you can see from the extent of our privacy policy, we take the protection of your personal data anything but lightly. It is important to us to inform you about the processing of personal data to the best of our knowledge and belief. However, we don't just want to inform you about which data is processed but also to explain the reasons for the use of various software programs. Privacy policies usually sound very technical and legal. Since most of you are not web developers or lawyers, we wanted to take a different approach linguistically and explain the matter in simple and clear language. However, this is not always possible due to the subject matter. Therefore, the most important terms are explained in more detail at the end of the privacy policy. If you have any questions about data protection on our website, please do not hesitate to contact us or the responsible party. We wish you a pleasant time and hope to welcome you back to our website soon.
