V. General information on data processing
1. Categories of personal data
We process the following categories of personal data:
• Existing data (e.g. names, addresses, functions, organisational affiliation etc.);
• contact data (e.g. e-mail, telephone/fax numbers etc.);
· Content data (e.g. text entries, image files, videos etc.);
· usage data (e.g. access data);
· meta/communication data (e.g. IP addresses).
2. recipients or categories of recipients of personal data
If, in the course of our processing, we disclose data to other persons and companies such as web hosters, contract processors or third parties, transfer it to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this is done on the basis of a legal authorisation (e.g. if transfer of the data to third parties is required in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the fulfilment of a contract), if the persons concerned have consented or a legal obligation provides for this.
3. Duration of storage of personal data
The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective legal retention period. After expiry of the period, the corresponding data will be deleted if they are no longer required for achieving the purpose, fulfilling the contract or initiating a contract.
4. Transfers to third countries
If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if this is done in the context of using the services of third parties or if we disclose or transfer data to third parties, this only takes place if it is necessary to fulfil our (pre-)contractual obligations, on the basis of your consent, on the basis of a legal obligation or on the basis of our legitimate interests. Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we will only process or transfer the data in a third country if the special conditions of Art. 44 ff. GDPR, i.e. the processing is carried out, for example, on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognised determination of a level of data protection equivalent to that in the EU or compliance with officially recognised special contractual obligations (so-called "standard contractual clauses").

4. data processing during videoconferences
We use the tools "Zoom", "Microsoft Teams", "Jitsi", and "Whereby" to conduct video conferences, teleconferences, online meetings, and/or web seminars (hereinafter: "video conferences"). The providers of the aforementioned tools are mostly located in the USA. When using the above-mentioned tools, the following types of data are processed. The scope of the data processing depends, among other things, on the personal data you provide before or during participation in a video conference.
The following personal data may be the subject of processing:
User details: first name, last name, telephone, e-mail address, password, image.
Conference data: Subject, description, participant IP addresses, hardware information.
In case of recordings (optional): MP4 file of all video, audio and content recordings, M4A file of all audio recordings, text file of the online meeting chat.
For dial-in via telephone: information on incoming and outgoing phone number, country name, start and end time. If necessary, further connection data such as the IP address of the device can be stored.
Video, audio and text data: You may have the opportunity to use the chat, inquiry or survey functions in a video conference. To this extent, the entries you make are processed in order to display them in the video conference and, if necessary, to log them. In order to enable the display of video and the playback of audio, the data of the microphone of your terminal device as well as any video recording via camera will be processed accordingly for the duration of the meeting. You can turn off or mute the camera or microphone yourself at any time using the appropriate buttons.
In order to participate in a video conference or to enter the "meeting room", you must at least provide information about your name.
Scope of Processing:
If we want to record videoconferences, we will notify you in advance and - if necessary - ask for your consent. The fact of the recording will also be displayed to you in the conferencing tool. If it is necessary for the purposes of logging the results of an online meeting, we will log the chat content. However, this will generally not be the case. In the case of web seminars, we may also process the questions asked by seminar participants for the purposes of recording and following up on webinars. If you are registered as a user with the providers of the above-mentioned tools, then reports on video conferences (metadata, data on telephone dial-in, questions and answers in webinars, survey function in webinars) may be stored for up to one month with the respective provider. Automated decision-making within the meaning of Art. 22 DSGVO does not take place.
The aforementioned tools are services of providers that may be provided from the USA. A processing of personal data may therefore also take place in a third country (USA). We have concluded EU standard contractual clauses and order processing agreements with the providers of the above-mentioned tools, which comply with the requirements of Art. 28 DSGVO.
Legal basis:
The legal basis for data processing when conducting video conferences is Art. 6 (1) (b) DSGVO, insofar as the video conferences are conducted in the context of contractual relationships. If there is no contractual relationship, the legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO. Here, our interest is in the effective implementation of video conferences.
VIII. data processing when receiving our newsletter
If you subscribe to our newsletter distribution list, your e-mail address and the newsletter you have chosen will be stored on a server by us.

We use this data exclusively for sending the newsletter. The registration system with an additional confirmation message containing a link to the final registration (double opt-in) ensures that the newsletter was requested by you and not by a third party. During registration your data is stored on our servers and a confirmation message with a link to the final registration is generated to the specified e-mail address. Only after confirmation of the link in the e-mail will your data for sending the newsletter be stored for the duration of your use of our offer.
If you no longer agree with the storage of your data for this purpose and thus no longer wish to use our offer, you can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time. For this purpose you will find a corresponding link in every newsletter. The personal data provided by you to subscribe to our newsletter will then be deleted.
Use of the service provider "EQS Group AG ".
Our newsletter is sent using "EQS", an application of EQS Group AG, Karlstraße 47, D-80333 Munich. The e-mail addresses of the recipients of our newsletter, as well as their other data described in this data protection notice, are stored on the servers of EQS Group AG. EQS uses this information to send and evaluate the newsletters on our behalf. We have concluded an order processing agreement with EQS Group AG, in which EQS Group AG undertakes to protect the data of our users, to process it on our behalf in accordance with its data protection provisions and, in particular, not to pass it on to third parties.
Statistical collection and analyses
Our newsletters contain a so-called "web beacon", i.e. a file that is retrieved from the MailChimp server when the newsletter is opened. As part of this retrieval, technical information such as information about the browser you are using and your system, as well as your IP address and retrieval time are collected. This information is used for the technical improvement of the services. The statistical surveys also include the determination of whether and when the newsletter is opened and which links are activated.
Unsubscribing from the newsletter
You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time. At the same time, your consent to the sending of the newsletter via EQS and the statistical analyses will expire. A separate cancellation of the dispatch via EQS or the statistical analysis is unfortunately not possible.
You will find a link to cancel the newsletter at the end of each newsletter.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data in the context of the newsletter dispatch via EQS is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO.
