HE OR SHE SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO TRANSMIT THOSE DATA TO ANOTHER CONTROLLER WITHOUT HINDRANCE FROM THE CONTROLLER TO WHICH THE PERSONAL DATA HAVE BEEN PROVIDED, AS LONG AS THE PROCESSING IS BASED ON CONSENT PURSUANT TO POINT (A) OF ARTICLE 6(1) OF THE GDPR OR POINT (A) OF ARTICLE 9(2) OF THE GDPR, OR ON A CONTRACT PURSUANT TO POINT (B) OF ARTICLE 6(1) OF THE GDPR, AND THE PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT BY AUTOMATED MEANS, AS LONG AS THE PROCESSING IS NOT NECESSARY FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF A TASK CARRIED OUT IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST OR IN THE EXERCISE OF OFFICIAL AUTHORITY VESTED IN THE CONTROLLER

H) AUTOMATED INDIVIDUAL DECISION-MAKING, INCLUDING PROFILING
EACH DATA SUBJECT SHALL HAVE 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 OR HER, AS LONG AS THE DECISION (1) IS NOT IS NECESSARY FOR ENTERING INTO, OR THE PERFORMANCE OF, A CONTRACT BETWEEN THE DATA SUBJECT AND A DATA CONTROLLER, OR (2) IS NOT AUTHORISED BY UNION OR MEMBER STATE LAW TO WHICH THE CONTROLLER IS SUBJECT AND WHICH ALSO LAYS DOWN SUITABLE MEASURES TO SAFEGUARD THE DATA SUBJECT'S RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS AND LEGITIMATE INTERESTS, OR (3) IS NOT BASED ON THE DATA SUBJECT'S EXPLICIT CONSENT

16. DATA PROTECTION FOR APPLICATIONS AND THE APPLICATION PROCEDURES
THE DATA CONTROLLER SHALL COLLECT AND PROCESS THE PERSONAL DATA OF APPLICANTS FOR THE PURPOSE OF THE PROCESSING OF THE APPLICATION PROCEDURE. THE PROCESSING MAY ALSO BE CARRIED OUT ELECTRONICALLY. THIS IS THE CASE, IN PARTICULAR, IF AN APPLICANT SUBMITS CORRESPONDING APPLICATION DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL OR BY MEANS OF A WEB FORM ON THE WEBSITE TO THE CONTROLLER. IF THE DATA CONTROLLER CONCLUDES AN EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT WITH AN APPLICANT, THE SUBMITTED DATA WILL BE STORED FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROCESSING THE EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP IN COMPLIANCE WITH LEGAL REQUIREMENTS. IF NO EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT IS CONCLUDED WITH THE APPLICANT BY THE CONTROLLER, THE APPLICATION DOCUMENTS SHALL BE AUTOMATICALLY ERASED TWO MONTHS AFTER NOTIFICATION OF THE REFUSAL DECISION, PROVIDED THAT NO OTHER LEGITIMATE INTERESTS OF THE CONTROLLER ARE OPPOSED TO THE ERASURE. OTHER LEGITIMATE INTEREST IN THIS RELATION IS, E.G. A BURDEN OF PROOF IN A PROCEDURE UNDER THE GENERAL EQUAL TREATMENT ACT (AGG).
LEGAL BASIS FOR THE PROCESSING
ART. 6(1) LIT. A GDPR SERVES AS THE LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING OPERATIONS FOR 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 PARTY, AS IS THE CASE, FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN PROCESSING OPERATIONS ARE NECESSARY FOR THE SUPPLY OF GOODS OR TO PROVIDE ANY OTHER SERVICE, THE PROCESSING IS BASED ON ARTICLE 6(1) LIT. B GDPR. THE SAME APPLIES TO SUCH PROCESSING OPERATIONS WHICH ARE NECESSARY FOR CARRYING OUT PRECONTRACTUAL MEASURES, FOR EXAMPLE IN THE CASE OF INQUIRIES CONCERNING OUR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES. IS OUR COMPANY SUBJECT TO A LEGAL OBLIGATION BY WHICH PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA IS REQUIRED, SUCH AS FOR THE FULFILLMENT OF TAX OBLIGATIONS, THE PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6(1) LIT. C GDPR. IN RARE CASES, THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA MAY BE NECESSARY TO PROTECT THE VITAL INTERESTS OF THE DATA SUBJECT OR OF ANOTHER NATURAL PERSON. THIS WOULD BE THE CASE, FOR EXAMPLE, IF A VISITOR WERE INJURED IN OUR COMPANY AND HIS NAME, AGE, HEALTH INSURANCE DATA OR OTHER VITAL INFORMATION WOULD HAVE TO BE PASSED ON TO A DOCTOR, HOSPITAL OR OTHER THIRD PARTY. THEN THE PROCESSING WOULD BE BASED ON ART. 6(1) LIT. D GDPR. FINALLY, PROCESSING OPERATIONS COULD BE BASED ON ARTICLE 6(1) LIT. F GDPR. THIS LEGAL BASIS IS USED FOR PROCESSING OPERATIONS WHICH ARE NOT COVERED BY ANY OF THE ABOVEMENTIONED LEGAL GROUNDS, IF PROCESSING IS NECESSARY FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE LEGITIMATE INTERESTS PURSUED BY OUR COMPANY OR BY A THIRD PARTY, EXCEPT WHERE SUCH INTERESTS ARE OVERRIDDEN BY THE INTERESTS OR FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OF THE DATA SUBJECT WHICH REQUIRE PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA. SUCH PROCESSING OPERATIONS ARE PARTICULARLY PERMISSIBLE BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED BY THE EUROPEAN LEGISLATOR. HE CONSIDERED THAT A LEGITIMATE INTEREST COULD BE ASSUMED IF THE DATA SUBJECT IS A CLIENT OF THE CONTROLLER (RECITAL 47 SENTENCE 2 GDPR).
THE LEGITIMATE INTERESTS PURSUED BY THE CONTROLLER OR BY A THIRD PARTY
WHERE THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA IS BASED ON ARTICLE 6(1) LIT. F GDPR OUR LEGITIMATE INTEREST IS TO CARRY OUT OUR BUSINESS IN FAVOR OF THE WELL-BEING OF ALL OUR EMPLOYEES AND THE SHAREHOLDERS.
PERIOD FOR WHICH THE PERSONAL DATA WILL BE STORED
THE CRITERIA USED TO DETERMINE THE PERIOD OF STORAGE OF PERSONAL DATA IS THE RESPECTIVE STATUTORY RETENTION PERIOD. AFTER EXPIRATION OF THAT PERIOD, THE CORRESPONDING DATA IS ROUTINELY DELETED, AS LONG AS IT IS NO LONGER NECESSARY FOR THE FULFILLMENT OF THE CONTRACT OR THE INITIATION OF A CONTRACT.
PROVISION OF PERSONAL DATA AS STATUTORY OR CONTRACTUAL REQUIREMENT; REQUIREMENT NECESSARY TO ENTER INTO A CONTRACT; OBLIGATION OF THE DATA SUBJECT TO PROVIDE THE PERSONAL DATA; POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES OF FAILURE TO PROVIDE SUCH DATA
WE 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). SOMETIMES IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO CONCLUDE A CONTRACT THAT THE DATA SUBJECT PROVIDES US WITH PERSONAL DATA, WHICH MUST SUBSEQUENTLY BE PROCESSED BY US. THE DATA SUBJECT IS, FOR EXAMPLE, OBLIGED TO PROVIDE US WITH PERSONAL DATA WHEN OUR COMPANY SIGNS A CONTRACT WITH HIM OR HER. THE NON-PROVISION OF THE PERSONAL DATA WOULD HAVE THE CONSEQUENCE THAT THE CONTRACT WITH THE DATA SUBJECT COULD NOT BE CONCLUDED. BEFORE PERSONAL DATA IS PROVIDED BY THE DATA SUBJECT, THE DATA SUBJECT MUST CONTACT ANY EMPLOYEE. THE EMPLOYEE CLARIFIES TO THE DATA SUBJECT 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 THE CONSEQUENCES OF NON-PROVISION OF THE PERSONAL DATA.
