II. General Information on Data Processing

1. Scope of Processing Personal Data
We process the personal data of our users only to the extent necessary for providing a functional website and our content and services. The processing of personal data regularly takes place only with the user’s consent. Exceptions apply in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible due to practical reasons and where processing is permitted by legal provisions.

2. Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data

  • If we obtain consent from the data subject for processing operations, Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
  • For processing personal data required for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR is the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations necessary for pre-contractual measures.
  • If processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
  • If processing is necessary to protect the legitimate interests of our company or a third party, and these interests are not overridden by the interests, fundamental rights, or freedoms of the data subject, Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis.

3. Data Deletion and Retention Period
Personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to exist. Data may be retained beyond this if required by European or national legislation under Union regulations, laws, or other provisions applicable to the controller. Data will also be deleted or blocked when any prescribed retention period under such regulations expires unless further storage is necessary for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

Rights of Data Subjects

If your personal data is being processed, you are entitled to the following rights under the GDPR. To exercise your rights, email shop@haarjaeger.de:

  1. Right to Access
    You can request confirmation of whether your personal data is processed and obtain details such as processing purposes, data categories, recipients, storage duration, and more.

  2. Right to Rectification
    You can request immediate correction or completion of your personal data if it is incorrect or incomplete.

  3. Right to Restrict Processing
    Under certain conditions, such as contesting the accuracy of your data or objecting to its processing, you can request restricted processing.

  4. Right to Erasure
    You can request deletion of your data if it is no longer necessary, you withdraw consent, or the processing was unlawful, among other reasons.

  5. The existence of the right to correction or deletion of personal data concerning you, the right to restriction of processing by the controller, or the right to object to such processing;

  6. The existence of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;

  7. All available information about the origin of the data if the personal data were not collected from the data subject;

  8. The existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, pursuant to Art. 22(1) and (4) GDPR 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.

    You have the right to request information about whether the personal data concerning you are transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you may request to be informed about the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR related to the transfer.

    1. Right to Rectification You have the right to request rectification and/or completion of your personal data held by the controller if they are inaccurate or incomplete. The controller must make the correction without delay.

    2. Right to Restriction of Processing You may request the restriction of processing of your personal data under the following conditions: (1) If you dispute the accuracy of the personal data concerning you, for a period that enables the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data; (2) The processing is unlawful, and you oppose the deletion of the personal data and request instead the restriction of their use; (3) The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you require it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims; or (4) If you have objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override your rights.

    If the processing of your personal data is restricted, these data may only be processed – apart from their storage – with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or a Member State.

    If the restriction of processing has been applied according to the above conditions, you will be notified by the controller before the restriction is lifted.

    1. Right to Deletion a) Obligation to Delete You can request the immediate deletion of your personal data from the controller, and the controller is obliged to delete these data without delay if one of the following reasons applies: (1) The personal data concerning you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed; (2) You withdraw your consent on which the processing was based according to Art. 6(1)(a) or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, and there is no other legal basis for the processing; (3) You object to the processing under Art. 21(1) GDPR, and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing under Art. 21(2) GDPR; (4) The personal data concerning you have been unlawfully processed; (5) The deletion of the personal data concerning you is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject; (6) The personal data concerning you were collected in relation to the services of the information society pursuant to Art. 8(1) GDPR.

    b) Information to Third Parties If the controller has made your personal data public and is obliged to delete them according to Art. 17(1) GDPR, the controller will, taking into account available technology and the cost of implementation, take reasonable measures, including technical measures, to inform controllers processing the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested the deletion of all links to, or copies or replications of, your personal data.

    c) Exceptions The right to deletion does not apply if the processing is necessary: (1) To exercise the right of freedom of expression and information; (2) To fulfill a legal obligation which requires processing under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or to perform a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller; (3) For reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Art. 9(2)(h) and (i) and Art. 9(3) GDPR; (4) For archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research, or statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89(1) GDPR, insofar as the right to deletion is likely to prevent or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing; or (5) For the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

    1. Right to Notification If you have exercised your right to rectification, deletion, or restriction of processing with the controller, the controller is obligated to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed, of the rectification, deletion, or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.

    You have the right to be informed about these recipients by the controller.

    1. Right to Data Portability You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to the controller in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data were provided, if: (1) The processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR; and (2) The processing is carried out by automated means.

    In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible. The rights and freedoms of others must not be affected.

    The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data which is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

    1. Right to Object 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 based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, including profiling based on these provisions. In such cases, the controller will no longer process your personal data unless the controller can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

    If the processing of your personal data is for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such marketing, including profiling related to direct marketing.

    If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.

    You have the option to exercise your right to object in relation to the use of information society services – regardless of Directive 2002/58/EC – through automated means, using technical specifications.

    1. Right to Withdraw Consent You have the right to withdraw your data protection consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

    2. Automated Individual Decision-Making, including Profiling You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision: (1) Is necessary for the entry into or performance of a contract between you and the controller; (2) Is authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, and that law provides appropriate safeguards for your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or (3) Is based on your explicit consent.

    However, such decisions may not be based on special categories of personal data under Art. 9(1) GDPR, unless Art. 9(2)(a) or (g) GDPR applies and appropriate safeguards for the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject are in place.

    In cases (1) and (3), the controller will implement appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms, which must include at least the right to obtain human intervention, to present your point of view, and to contest the decision.

    1. Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the Member State of your residence, your place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement, if you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR.

    The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been lodged will inform the complainant of the progress and outcomes of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Art. 78 GDPR.
