Data Privacy

Preamble The Gnam engineering office takes the protection of personal data very seriously. In principle, for example, it is possible to use our website without providing any personal data. If our contact form is used to contact you, your personal data, such as name, address, email address or telephone number, will always be processed in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) - EU, the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and country-specific data protection regulations . If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject. The following data protection declaration is intended to provide information about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed about the rights to which they are entitled using this data protection declaration. The Gnam engineering office, as the data controller, has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible for the personal data processed via this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by post or telephone.

2. Definitions The data protection declaration is based on the terms used by the European legislator when issuing the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration should be easy to read and understand for the public, our customers and interested parties as well as for our business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terms used in advance. a) personal data Personal data is any information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter “data subject”). A natural person is considered to be identifiable if he or she can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more special characteristics that express the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person. b) data subject Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the data controller. c) Processing Processing is any operation or series of operations carried out on personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as the collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or modification, reading, querying, use, disclosure by transmission, distribution or other form of provision, alignment or association, restriction, deletion or destruction. d) Restriction of processing Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting their future processing. e) Profiling Profiling is any type of automated processing of personal data which consists in using these personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular aspects relating to work performance, economic situation, health, personal Analyze or predict the preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location or movements of that natural person. f) Pseudonymization Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be assigned to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that this additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures that ensure that the personal data not be assigned to an identified or identifiable natural person. g) Controller or controller The person responsible or responsible for processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, institution or other body which, alone or jointly with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data. however, are not considered recipients. j) Third party Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor and the persons authorized to process the personal data under the direct responsibility of the controller or the processor. k) Consent Consent is any voluntary, informed and unambiguous expression of wishes given by the data subject for a specific case, in the form of a statement or other unambiguous confirmatory act, by which the data subject indicates that he or she agrees to the processing of personal data concerning him or her is.

Collection of general data and information The website of the Gnam engineering office collects a series of general data and information each time the website is accessed by a data subject or an automated system. This general data and information is stored in the log files of the web server. What can be recorded are the (1) browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites which are accessible via an accessing system on our website is controlled, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information that serves to protect against threats in the event of attacks on our information technology systems. When using this general data and information, the Gnam engineering office does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website and the advertising for it, (3) ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website and ( 4) to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. This anonymously collected data and information is therefore evaluated by the Gnam engineering office both statistically and with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data in the server log files is stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject. 6. Routine deletion and blocking of personal data The person responsible for processing processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or if this is required by the European legislator or another legislator in laws or regulations which the person responsible for processing is subject to. If the purpose of storage no longer applies or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another responsible legislator expires, the personal data will be blocked or deleted routinely and in accordance with legal regulations.

7. Rights of the data subject a) Right to confirmation Every data subject has the right granted by the European legislator to obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning him or her is being processed. If a data subject would like to exercise this right of confirmation, they can contact an employee of the person responsible for processing at any time. b) Right to information Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to obtain free information from the person responsible for processing at any time about the personal data stored about him and a copy of this information. Furthermore, the European legislator has granted the data subject access to the following information: the processing purposes the categories of personal data that are processed the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organizations if possible, the planned period for which the personal data will be stored or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining that period the existence of a right to rectification or deletion of personal data concerning you or to restriction of processing by the controller or a right to object to this processing the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if the personal data is not collected from the data subject: all available information about the origin of the data the existence of automated decision-making including profiling in accordance with Article 22 Paragraphs 1 and 4 GDPR and - at least in these cases - meaningful information about the logic involved and the scope and- at least in these cases - meaningful information about the logic involved as well as the scope and the intended effects of such processing on the data subject. The data subject also has the right to information as to whether personal data has been transmitted to a third country or to an international organization. If this is the case, the data subject also has the right to receive information about the appropriate guarantees in connection with the transfer. If a data subject would like to exercise this right to information, they can contact an employee of the person responsible for processing at any time. c) Right to rectification Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to request the immediate correction of incorrect personal data concerning them. Furthermore, the data subject has the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, including by means of a supplementary statement, taking into account the purposes of the processing. If a data subject would like to exercise this right to rectification, they can contact an employee of the data controller at any time. d) Right to deletion (right to be forgotten) Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to request that the person responsible delete the personal data concerning him or her immediately if one of the following reasons applies and if the processing is not necessary: The personal data was collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which it is no longer necessary. The data subject revokes their consent on which the processing was based in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter a GDPR or Article 9 Paragraph 2 Letter a GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing. The data subject objects to the processing in accordance with Article 21 (1) of the GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing in accordance with Article 21 (2) of the GDPR. The personal data was processed unlawfully. The deletion of personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject. The personal data was collected in relation to information society services offered in accordance with Article 8 Para. 1 GDPR. If one of the reasons mentioned above applies and a data subject wishes to have personal data stored at Gnam Engineering Office deleted, they can contact the data protection officer or those responsible at any time. The data protection officer at the Gnam engineering office will ensure that the deletion request is complied with immediately. If the personal data has been made public by the Gnam engineering office and our company, as the controller, is obliged to delete the personal data in accordance with Art. 17 Para. 1 GDPR, the Gnam desig office will take appropriate measures, including those of a technical nature, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs to inform other data controllers who process the published personal data that the data subject has requested that these other data controllers delete all links to that personal data or copies or replications of that personal data , unless processing is necessary. Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to request that the controller restrict the processing if one of the following conditions is met: The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data. The processing is unlawful, the data subject refuses the deletion of the personal data and instead requests the restriction of the use of the personal data. The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but the data subject needs them to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. The data subject has an objection to the processingIf one of the above conditions is met and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by the Gnam engineering office, he or she can contact an employee of the data controller at any time. The employee of the Gnam engineering office will arrange for the processing to be restricted. f) Right to data portability Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which the data subject has provided to a person responsible, in a structured, common and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit these data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data were provided, provided that the processing is based on consent in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter a of the GDPR or Article 9 Paragraph 2 Letter a GDPR or based on a contract in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b GDPR and the processing is carried out using automated procedures, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task that is in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority, which was transferred to the person responsible. Furthermore, when exercising his or her right to data portability in accordance with Article 20 (1) of the GDPR, the data subject has the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one person responsible to another person responsible, to the extent that this is technically feasible and to the extent that this is not the case the rights and freedoms of other people are impaired. To assert the right to data portability, the data subject can contact the Gnam engineering office at any time. g) Right to object Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to object at any time, for reasons arising from his or her particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning him or her based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter e or f GDPR, to lodge an objection. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The Gnam engineering office will no longer process the personal data in the event of an objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend of legal claims. If Gnam Construction Office processes personal data in order to conduct direct advertising, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for the purpose of such advertising. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected to such direct advertising. If the data subject objects to the Gnam engineering office processing for direct advertising purposes, the Gnam engineering office will no longer process the personal data for these purposes. In addition, the data subject has the right, for reasons arising from his or her particular situation, to object to the processing of personal data concerning him or her that is carried out by the Gnam engineering office for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89 (1) of the GDPR. to object, unless such processing is necessary to fulfill a task carried out in the public interest. To exercise the right to object, the data subject can contact the data protection officer directly. Furthermore, in connection with the use of information society services, the data subject is free, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to exercise his or her right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications. h) Automated decisions in individual cases including profiling Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing - including profiling - which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him, provided that the decision (1) is not necessary for entering into or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or (2) is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and such legislation takes appropriate measuresto protect the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, which includes at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express one's own point of view and to challenge the decision.If the data subject would like to assert rights with regard to automated decisions, he or she can contact an employee of the data controller at any time.i) Right to revoke consent under data protection lawEvery person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator to revoke consent to the processing of personal data at any time If the data subject would like to exercise their right to withdraw consent, they can contact an employee of the data controller at any time. 8. Data protection for applications and the application process.The person responsible for processing collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of processing the application process. Processing can also take place electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant sends relevant application documents to the person responsible for processing electronically, for example by email or via a web form on the website. If the person responsible for processing concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the data transmitted will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with legal regulations. If the person responsible for processing does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted 6 months after the rejection decision is announced, provided that deletion does not conflict with any other legitimate interests of the person responsible for processing. Other legitimate interests in this sense include, for example, a burden of proof in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

9. Legal basis for processing Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for processing operations in which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of any other service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data, such as to fulfill tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance details or other vital information would then have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the above-mentioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, he was of the opinion that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

10. Legitimate interests in processing pursued by the controller or a third part If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and our shareholders.

11. Duration for which the personal data will be stored. The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After the deadline has expired, the relevant data will be routinely deleted unless it is no longer required to fulfill the contract or initiate a contract.

12. Legal or contractual regulations governing the provision of personal data; Necessity for the conclusion of the contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision. We would like to clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). In order to conclude a contract, it may sometimes be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company enters into a contract with them. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the person concerned could not be concluded. Before the data subject provides personal data, the data subject must contact one of our employees. Our employee will inform the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what consequences the non-provision of the personal data would have.

13. Existence of automated decision making. As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling
