As a matter of principle, we do not sell or lend user data. A transfer to third parties beyond the scope described in this data protection declaration does not take place.

If it is necessary to process your personal data and there is no legal basis for such processing, we will always obtain your consent for the necessary purpose of processing.

 We would like to point out that data transmission via the World Wide Web may have security gaps.

2. Collection and transfer of personal data

This personal data will not be passed on to third parties. We use your personal data only for the following purposes:

a) Registration on the platform

The platform is not public, but a service for your company to support the transformation of the content from the classroom training. For this reason it is necessary to store user and login data to enable your participation. We store:

  1.  User name (first and last name) for a login
  2.  E-mail address to organize the communication between coach and mentee within the notification service
  3.  A personal password to manage access

b) Comments

In the context of the interaction between coach and mentee to deepen knowledge and implement the new techniques and concepts, the platform has a notification service. Here mentee and coach exchange information in the form of notifications and comments.

If you write comments or notifications on the platform, we collect the data displayed in the comment form and make it available to the addressee. Comments and notifications can be viewed by the administrator and the coach and are deleted by the coach once the work process is finished. In addition, the IP address and the user-agent string (which identifies the browser) are noted to assist in spam detection.

If you have an account on this platform or have written comments, you can request an export of your personal data from us, including all the data you have given us. In addition, you can request the deletion of all personal data that we have stored about you.

An anonymous string of characters (also called a hash) can be created from your e-mail address and sent to the Gravatar service to check whether you are using it. You can find the Gravatar service’s privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is posted, your profile picture will be publicly visible in the context of your comment.

When processing personal data for which we obtain the consent of the data subject, Art. 6, para. 1, sentence 1 a) of the Basic Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) serves as the legal basis.

c) Media

If you are a registered user and upload photos to the platform, you should avoid uploading photos with an EXIF GPS location. Visitors to this site could download photos stored on this site and extract their location information.

d) Using YouTube components with enhanced privacy mode

On our website we use components (videos) from the company YouTube, LLC 901 Cherry Ave., 94066 San Bruno, CA, USA, a company of Google Inc., Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

For this purpose, we use the “extended privacy mode” option provided by YouTube.

When you visit a page that has embedded video, a connection to the YouTube servers is established and the content is displayed on the website by notifying your browser.

According to YouTube, in the “enhanced privacy mode”, data is only transmitted to the YouTube server, in particular which of our websites you have visited when you watch the video. If you are logged in to YouTube at the same time, this information is associated with your YouTube member account. You can prevent this by logging out of your member account before visiting our website.

More information about YouTube’s privacy policy is available from Google at the following linkhttps://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/

e) Use of Vimeo

We use the provider Vimeo for the integration of videos. Vimeo is operated by Vimeo, LLC with headquarters at 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011.

On some of our Internet pages we use plugins from the provider Vimeo. When you access the Internet pages of our website that are equipped with such a plugin, a connection is established to the Vimeo servers and the plugin is displayed. This tells the Vimeo server which of our Internet pages you have visited. If you are logged in as a member of Vimeo, Vimeo assigns this information to your personal user account. When you use the plug-in, such as when you click on the start button of a video, this information is also assigned to your user account. You can prevent this assignment by logging out of your Vimeo user account before using our website and deleting the corresponding cookies from Vimeo.

For more information on data processing and Vimeo’s privacy policy, please visit https://vimeo.com/privacy.

f) Contact by mail or contact form

On our website we offer you the possibility to contact us by e-mail and/or via a contact form. If you contact us by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by you will be stored automatically.

  1. First and last name
  2. Email address

Such personal data that you voluntarily provide to us is stored for the purpose of processing your inquiry or contacting the person concerned. This personal data will not be passed on to third parties.

g) Data in the user profile

For users who register on this platform, we also store the personal information they provide in their user profiles. All users can view, change or delete their personal information at any time (the user name cannot be changed). Administrators of the website can also view and change this information.

4. Deletion, blocking and duration of storage of personal data

We process and store your personal data only for the period of time required to achieve the respective storage purpose or as required by the various retention periods stipulated by law. As a rule, this ends with the completion of the further training measure commissioned by your company.

If you write a comment, it will be stored including metadata for an unlimited period of time. In this way we can automatically recognize and release follow-up comments instead of keeping them in a moderation queue. The coach has the possibility to delete comments and notifications after the work process is finished.

If you have an account on this platform or if you have written comments, you can request an export of your personal data from us, including all data you have given us. In addition, you can request the deletion of all personal data that we have stored about you. This does not include the data that we have to keep due to administrative, legal or security reasons.

After discontinuation of a storage purpose or after expiration of the usage agreement of the platform by your company, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted for further processing in accordance with the statutory provisions.

5. Data protection rights of the data subject

If you have questions about your personal data, you can always contact us in writing.

You have the following rights under the GDPR:

a) The right to information (subsection Article 15 of the GDPR)

You have the right at any time to obtain information about which categories and information about your personal data are processed by us for what purpose and for how long and according to which criteria these data are stored and whether automated decision-making (including profiling) is used in this context. You also have the right to know to which recipients or categories of recipients your information has been disclosed or will be disclosed; in particular for beneficiaries in third countries or international organizations. In this case you also have the right to be informed about appropriate guarantees in connection with the transmission of your personal data.

In addition to the right of appeal to the supervisory authority and the right to information about the origin of your data, you have the right to cancellation, rectification and the right to restriction or opposition to the processing of your personal data.

In all cases mentioned above, you have the right to request from the data processor a free copy of your personal data processed by us. We are entitled to charge a reasonable administration fee for any additional copies you request or that go beyond the information rights of the data subject.

b) The right to rectification (Article 16 of the GDPR)

You have the right to demand the immediate correction of your incorrect personal data and to request the completion of incomplete personal data by means of a supplementary declaration, taking into account the purposes of the processing.

If you wish to exercise your right to rectification, you can contact our data protection officer or the party responsible for data processing at any time.

c) The right to erasure (Article 17 of the GDPR)

You have the right to request the immediate deletion of your data (“right to be forgotten”) especially if the storage of the data is no longer necessary, you revoke your consent to processing, your data has been unlawfully processed or illegally collected and there is a legal obligation to delete under EU or national law.

However, the right to be forgotten does not apply where there is an overriding right to freedom of expression or information, where data retention is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation (e.g. retention obligations), for archival purposes or saving for the exercise or defence of legal claims.

d) The right of restriction (Article 18 of the GDPR)

You have the right to request the party responsible for data processing to restrict the processing of your data if the accuracy of the data is disputed by you, if the processing is unlawful, if you refuse to a deletion of your personal data and if you require a restriction of processing, if the need for the processing purpose ceases or you have objected to the processing referred to in Article 21 para. 1, as long as it is not certain that our legitimate reasons prevail over yours.

e) The right to data portability (Article 20 of the GDPR)

You have the right to transfer your personal data, which you have provided to our company in the form of a standard format, so that you can have your personal data forwarded to another person without hindrance, if, for example, you give your consent and processing by means of an automated process procedure takes place.

f) The right to object (Article 21 of the GDPR)

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time, except in the presence of legitimate reasons. For example, legitimate reasons for data processing exist where the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject prevail, or processing serves to assert, defend and exercise rights. In addition, you may at any time express a separate, explicit right to object to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of direct mail.

g) Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Article 77 of the GDPR in conjunction with Section 19 BDSG)

You are granted the right to complain to the competent authority if you believe that your personal data has been infringed.

The supervisory authority responsible for our company is:

Privacy Officer of Hessen, PO Box 3163, 65021 Wiesbaden
Email: Poststelle@datenschutz.hessen.de, www. datenschutz.hessen.de
Telephone: +49 611 1408 – 0, Fax: +49 611 1408 – 900

h) Right to revoke data protection consent (Article 7 para. 3 of the GDPR)

You may withdraw your consent to the processing of your personal data at any time without giving reasons. This also applies to the revocation of declarations of consent issued to us prior to the entry into force of the EU General Data Protection Regulation.

6. Transfer of data to third parties

We generally do not sell or lend user data. Transmission to third parties beyond the scope described in this privacy policy will only take place if necessary to complete the requested service.

We transmit data only if there is a legal obligation to do so. This is the case when government agencies (e.g. law enforcement agencies) ask in writing for information or a court order is available.

The transfer of personal information to so-called third countries outside the EU/EEA area does not take place.

7. Legal or contractual regulations for the provision of personal information and possible consequences of non-provision

We hereby point out that the provision of personal data in certain cases (e.g. tax regulations) is required by law or may result from a contractual regulation (e.g. information about the contracting party). For example, it may be necessary for a contract that the person/the contracting party must provide their personal data, so that their request (e.g. order) can be processed by us at all. An obligation to provide personal data arises especially when concluding a contract. If no personal data is provided in this case, the contract cannot be concluded with the data subject. Prior to any provision of personal data by the data subject, the data subject may contact our data protection officer or the party responsible for data processing. The data protection officer or the party responsible for data processing then informs the data subject whether the provision of the personal data required is required by law or contract or for the conclusion of the contract and whether the data subject’s concerns imply the provision of the personal data or what consequences a non-provision of the desired data has for the person concerned.

 8. Collection of general access information

Every time you visit our website, server log file information that your browser sends to us is automatically recorded. This technical access information is not further processed or used in any way beyond technical use.

After discontinuation of a storage purpose or after expiration of the usage agreement of the platform by your company, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted for further processing in accordance with the statutory provisions.
