NAVIGATION DATA

During their normal operation, the IT systems and software procedures which operate this website acquire some personal data, the transmission of which is implicit in the use of Internet communications protocols. These data are not gathered for association with identified subjects, but by their very nature, when processed or associated with data held by third parties, they might allow users to be identified.

This category of data includes the IP addresses or domain names of the computers used by users who log onto the website, the addresses in URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) notation of the resources requested, the time of the request, the method used when submitting the request to the server, the size of the file obtained in reply, the numerical code indicating the server’s response status (concluded successfully, error, etc.) and other parameters relating to the user’s operating system and IT environment.

These data are used for the sole purpose of obtaining anonymous statistical information concerning the use of the website and to check that it is operating correctly, and they are deleted immediately after processing. The data might be used in order to identify those responsible in the event of IT crimes against the site: except for this case, data concerning web contacts are not currently held for more than a few months.

The optional, explicit, voluntary dispatch of emails to the addresses provided on this website, or the compilation of specific data input forms in order to obtain services/information or submit enquiries, leads to the subsequent acquisition of the sender’s address, necessary in order to reply to the enquiry, and any other personal data included.

You may assert the following free rights against any person responsible for the processing of your personal data pursuant to Art. 4 No. 7 DS-GVO in accordance with the statutory provisions:

• Right to withdraw your consent (Art. 7(3) DS-GVO).
• Right to information: You can request information in accordance with Art. 15 DS-GVO about your personal data that we process.
• Right to object: You have a right to object on specific grounds. You have the right to object at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation to the processing of your personal data which is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. f) DS-GVO. The controller will then no longer process the personal data unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims. The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of log files are absolutely necessary for the operation of the website.
• Right to rectification: If the information concerning you is not (or is no longer) accurate, you may request a rectification in accordance with Art. 16 DS-GVO. If your data is incomplete, you can request that it be completed;
• Right to erasure: You can request the erasure of your personal data in accordance with Art. 17 DS-GVO.

The requirements of Art. 20 (1) DS-GVO are therefore not fulfilled.

You have the right to assert your rights against all jointly responsible persons.

You also have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority pursuant to Art. 77 et seq. DS-GVO to complain to a data protection supervisory authority about the processing of your personal data by the controllers.
