General information on data processing

Scope of the processing of personal data
We only process our users' personal data to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services, or to optimize the technical functionality of our website. The processing of our users' personal data only takes place regularly with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures. Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which TAM Akademie GMBH is subject, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis in the event that vital interests of data subjects or another natural person require the processing of personal data. If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, then Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

Deletion of data and storage duration
The deletion or blocking of personal data of the data subject takes place as soon as the purpose of the storage no longer applies. In addition, data may be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. The data will also be deleted or blocked if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

Legal basis for data processing
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR forms the legal basis for the temporary storage of data.

Purpose of data processing
In order to enable the website to be delivered to the user's computer, it is necessary for the system to temporarily store the IP address.

According to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest in data processing also lies in these purposes.

Duration of storage
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the collection of data for website provision, this is the case when the respective session has ended.

Objection and removal options

1. to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information.

If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such marketing. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is associated with such direct advertising.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.
In the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you have the possibility of exercising your right to object by automated means using technical specifications. You also have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing of personal data concerning you which is carried out for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89 (1) GDPR.

Your right to object may be restricted to the extent that it is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the realization of research or statistical purposes and the restriction is necessary for the fulfillment of research or statistical purposes.

Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law
You have the right to revoke your declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision
1. is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and the controller,
2. is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or
3. is based on your explicit consent.

However, these decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data pursuant to Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR, unless Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a or g GDPR applies and appropriate measures have been taken to protect the rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.

With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the data controller shall implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your point of view and to contest the decision.

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.

The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR.
