Legal basis for processing

Legitimate interest

Purpose of personal data processing

The purpose of the register is the controller's business, the opening of new customer relationships and related communication. The information obtained is used to establish and maintain customer relationships and for other business needs of the controller.

Basis of legitimate interest

The legitimate interest of the controller to process the personal data collected and used is based on direct marketing needs and the freedom to conduct a business. Direct marketing is a legitimate interest of an undertaking under the EU General Data Protection Regulation. The controller needs to process personal data in order to carry out its business tasks. The processing of personal data in this context cannot necessarily be justified by a legal obligation or a contract with an individual. In the balancing test, the controller has identified legitimate interest as the most appropriate ground for processing in view of the nature and scope of the processing and the exercise of the rights and freedoms of data subjects. The controller has assessed that the legitimate interest will not cause serious harm to the rights and freedoms of the individuals concerned (the data subjects).

Name, organisation represented, contact details.

Recipients and recipient groups

The data controller’s personnel and outsourcing partners when applicable.

Data will not be disclosed to external parties or to the company’s partners except for purposes related to credit applications, debt collection or invoicing as well as in situations required by law. Personal data will not be transferred outside the European Union unless necessary for ensuring the technical implementation of the company’s or its partners’ activities. A data subject’s personal data will be removed upon the data subject’s request unless such removal is prohibited by legislation, matters related to the management of the customer relationship, outstanding invoices, or debt collection.

Regular transfers of information

The data stored in the register are used solely by the company and its employees, except when an external service provider is used either to provide added value services or to support credit-related decision-making. Data will not be disclosed to external parties or to the company’s partners except for purposes related to credit applications, debt collection or invoicing as well as in situations required by law. A data subject’s personal data will be removed upon the data subject’s request unless such removal is prohibited by legislation, matters related to the management of the customer relationship, outstanding invoices, or debt collection.

Data transfer outside the EU or EEA

The data in the register will be transferred outside the EU or EEA to the UK. It is also possible that service providers outside the EU/EEA are used for processing or that the clouds of service providers are located outside the EU/EEA, in which case SCC standard clauses are used as the basis for data transfer and additional safeguards are implemented for data transfers, such as internal guidelines (on pseudonymisation of personal data and the like) and possibly TIA analysis where appropriate.

Principles of register protection A: Manual material

After initial processing, manually processed documents containing customer data (e.g. printed e-mails or their attachments, printed web forms or similar) are stored in locked and fire-safe storage facilities. Only designated employees who have signed a confidentiality undertaking are authorised to process manually stored customer data. The protection and processing of data in the register is in accordance with the provisions and principles of the Data Protection Act, the regulations of the authorities and good data processing practice.

Principles of register protection B: Electronic material

Only certain employees of the organisation and companies acting on its behalf are entitled to access, for example, workstations with software that can maintain information on potential customers. Each designated user has his or her own personal user name and password. Each user has signed a confidentiality undertaking. The system is protected by a firewall which protects external access to the system and the workstations with appropriate security software. The protection and processing of data in the register is in accordance with the provisions and principles of the Data Protection Act, the regulations of the authorities and good data processing practice.
