E-Mail: info(at)mitwohnzentrale-franken.de


2. What data do we use and where do they come from?

We process personal data that we receive from our customers or other data subjects, e.g. their authorised representatives, prospects, people requesting information, etc., in the scope of our business activity.

This includes, for example, personal data (name, contact details/address, phone, fax, email, date/place of birth, gender), order data, data from meeting our contractual obligations, advertising and sales data, as well as other data comparable to the categories named.

We further process personal data that results beforehand from personal, phone or written contact initiated by you or by us, e.g. information on the transmission channel (phone, email, fax, internet).

We also process personal data that we have admissibly acquired from publicly accessible sources (e.g. commercial register, press, media, internet) and are allowed to process.

3. For what purpose do we process your data (purpose of processing) and what is the legal basis?

We process the personal data under observation of the provisions of the GDPR, the Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz; BDSG) as well as any other relevant laws.

a) The preparation or execution of our contractual relationships (point (b) of Article 6(1) GDPR)

Data are processed for rendering our services in the scope of performance of our contracts with our customers, or performance of pre-contractual measures that are taken upon your request. The purposes of data processing are mainly according to the contractual object and may, among other things, comprise demand analyses and consulting.

b) Within the scope of consideration of interests (point (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR)

As far as is necessary, we will process your data beyond the actual performance of the contract to protect our legitimate interests.

Examples:
Advertising, review and optimisation of procedures for demand analysis for the purpose of direct customer contact, establishment of legal claims and defences in legal disputes, ensuring IT security and our IT system, measures for the security of buildings and facilities (e.g. admission controls), prevention and investigation of criminal offences, measures for business control and further development of services and products.

c) Based on legal specifications (point (c) of Article 6(1) GDPR)

We are subject to various statutory obligations, i.e. statutory requirements. The purposes of processing include, for example, meeting tax control and notification obligations.

d) Based on your consent (point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR)

Where you have given your consent to processing of your personal data for specific purposes (e.g. forwarding of your application documents, handover of your calling card, consent to newsletter dispatch), such processing is lawful based on your consent. You may withdraw consent given at any time for the future. This declaration is not bound to any specific form. 

4. Who will receive my data?

Within our company, only those offices that require your data in order to enable us to meet our contractual and statutory obligations will be given access to them. Service providers and vicarious agents deployed by us may also receive data for these purposes if they observe confidentiality and our instructions under data protection law.
In light of forwarding outside of our company, we observe that we are obligated to secrecy concerning any data of our customers and potential customers of which we gain knowledge. We must only pass on information about you if we are obligated to issue information by statutory provisions, or if you have consented to it. The processors charged by us must guarantee equivalent compliance with confidentiality and the specifications of the GDPR. This is specifically the case for print service providers, service providers for data carrier destruction, EDP/IT support and maintenance service providers, scanning service providers, payment transaction service providers, legal counsels and tax advisors.

5. Are any data transmitted to a third country or international organisation?

Data transfer to any countries outside of the EU or EEA (third states) does not take place.

6. For what period are your data stored?

We process and store your data for as long as this is necessary to meet our contractual or statutory obligations. If the data are no longer required to meet contractual or statutory obligations, they will be regularly deleted, except if their temporary further processing is required to meet retention obligations under commercial and tax law from the Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch; HBG) and the Tax Code (Abgabenordnung; AO). The time limits stipulated there for archiving or documentation are usually between two and ten years. In such cases, processing as such is restricted after the end of the contractual purpose so that only the purpose of archiving from the exemplary laws named can be achieved.
Furthermore, there may be individual retention interests that take priority over any erasure obligations. In such cases, processing as such is also restricted after the end of the contractual purpose so that only the purpose of archiving can be achieved anymore. One example is preserving evidence within the context of the statutory expiration provisions. According to Sections 195 et seqq. German Civil Code, these expiration periods may be up to 30 years, with the regular period of expiration being 3 years.

7. Processing activities within the context of requests for information in accordance with Article 15 GDPR

The purpose of processing of your personal data in cases where you demand information from us about the personal data stored concerning you in accordance with Article 15 GDPR is meeting your claim to information. We store the following data from you for the purpose of providing this information: First name, surname, email address and address.
Processing of such personal data takes place to meet a legal obligation from Article 15 GDPR, i.e. the obligation to provide information you have requested from us. The legal basis for this is point (c) of Article 6(1) GDPR.

We submit your data to our data protection officer or a lawyer charged by us in this matter in order to process and respond to your request for information together with him. There will be no further transfer of data to third parties. Data transfer to any countries outside of the EU or EEA (third states) does not take place either.
Within the context of requests for information, we will store your personal data only for as long as this is required to perform the above purpose of processing.

8. Job offers and unsolicited applications

Protection of your personal data in the scope of the application process is important to us. The following information applies to applications that are sent to us by email or mail.

The purpose of processing of your personal data is the verification of possible employment in our company (applicant selection) based on your application documents (applicant information). We process the data submitted by you for the following purpose: Personal data (first and last names, date of birth, place of birth, address), communication data (phone no., mobile phone no., email address), data about training (school, vocational training, civilian service/military service, studies, postgraduate studies), details on your career to date (training and work references) and an application photograph.
The legal basis for processing of your data is your consent that you have conclusively given to us by sending your application documents, point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR. Second, we process these data to make a decision on founding an employment based on Section 26 BDSG-revised.
We will use the personal data submitted by you only for processing your application for the offered job. Your details will only be disclosed to those of our employees who are involved in the application process. All employees charged with data processing are also obligated to keep your data confidential. We will not pass your personal data on to any third parties without your advance explicit consent to passing on of data, or if we are obligated to do so based on statutory provisions and/or authority or court order.

This shall not apply if any statutory provisions oppose erasure, further storage is necessary for the purpose of evidence or if you have explicitly consented to longer storage.

Your application data are provided freely. You may revoke your consent at any time. If you revoke your consent to processing of your personal data, we will erase the application information received from you from our applicant database. If any retention obligations apply, or if there is a legitimate interest in retention, we will restrict processing until the data to be retained are erased.

9. Your data protection rights

Every data subject has the right to information in accordance with Article 15 GDPR, the right to rectification in accordance with Article 16 GDPR, the right of erasure in accordance with Article 17 GDPR, the right to restriction of processing in accordance with Article 18 GDPR, the right to objection from Article 21 GDPR and the right to data portability from Article 20 GDPR. If you make use of your rights named above, we will check if the statutory conditions for this are met. Apart from this, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Bavarian state office for data protection (Bayerisches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht).

You may revoke your consent granted to us for processing of personal data at any time. This shall also apply to any declarations of consent that were given to us before the application of the GDPR, i.e. before 25 May 2018. Please note that the revocation will only be effective for the future. Processing that took place before the revocation is not affected by this..

10. Is there any obligation for you to provide data?

Within the scope of our business relationships, you need to provide such personal data that are needed to found, execute or terminate the business relationship, and to meet the connected obligation, or the collection of which is required by law. Without these data, we will usually be unable to conclude, execute and complete a contract with you.

11. Final matters

Our business operation requires the recording and processing of personal data. Where data recording and processing take place, data protection and data security must be ensured. This is not only a legal requirement, but also important to us.

If you desire any information that this data protection statement does not contain, or if you desire any further information on a specific item, please contact us on the above contact details.
