a) To fulfil contractual obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR): In particular personal data will be processed so that the Company can provide services and implement any pre or post contractual measures. This includes the identification of contractual parties for correspondence and payment purposes;
b) To fulfil legal obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR): The Company also processes your personal data in order to fulfil legal obligations to which the Company is subject. These include regulatory or official requirements (e.g. under the Anti-Money Laundering Act) as well as general business or tax obligations (e.g. compliance with retention periods);
c) On the basis of consent given (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR): Furthermore, the Company will process your personal data if you have consented to this for specific purposes, for example, for marketing purposes. You may revoke your consent, in whole or in part, at any given time;
d) To protect legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR): The company may also process your personal data to protect the Company's or third parties' legitimate interests. Such interests include:
- Communication and correspondence, aside from for contractual purposes
- The assertion of legal claims and defence in legal disputes
- The prevention and investigation of criminal offences
- Marketing/direct marketing purposes
- The management of business and the development of products and services
- Ensuring IT security and operations
- Consulting credit agencies to determine credit worthiness and default risk.
Transmission of personal data
In order to fulfil the aforementioned legitimate purposes, the Company may pass on your personal data to third-party service providers and others to whom the company delegates tasks. In some cases, the service provider used by the Company receives such information as contract processors and is then strictly bound by the Company's instructions when handling your personal data.
Recipients of your personal data may include:
- Payment service providers and banks in order to process payments
- Credit agencies and the like to ascertain credit worthiness and default risk
- Logistics service providers to transmit documents, etc. to you
- Media companies such as advertising agencies, printers, copy shops, etc. to process marketing activities
- IT service providers who administer and maintain the Company's IT systems
- Collection agencies and legal advisors to assert any claims
- Public authorities so the Company complies with its legal obligations.
Data will be transmitted to authorities in countries outside the EU or the EEA (so-called third countries) only if this is necessary to fulfil a legitimate purpose or is required by law, if you have given your consent to the Company or in the context of the processing of your order. Both companies affiliated with the Doric Group and external service providers in a third country may carry out such data processing. Compliance with European data protection norms is ensured by the Company through contracts containing clauses prescribed by the EU Commission or, alternatively, through comparable suitable guarantees within the meaning of Art. 46 GDPR.
Duration of data storage
The Company processes and stores your personal data if necessary for the fulfilment of contractual and legal obligations or based on justified interests. This may include the initiation (pre-contractual legal relationship) and the settlement of contractual relationships. If you have given your consent, your personal data will be processed for the respective purpose until you revoke your consent.
In addition, the Company may store your personal data until the statute of limitations for any legal claims arising from the Company's relationship with you has passed in order to be able to use your data for verification purposes if necessary. As a rule, the limitation period is three years.
When the statute of limitations comes into effect, the Company deletes your personal data unless there is an additional legal obligation to store data, for example from the German Commercial Code, the Tax Code or the Anti-Money Laundering Act. These retention obligations can last up to ten years.
Your rights
Every data subject has the right of access under Article 15 GDPR, the right to rectification under Article 16 GDPR, the right to erasure (right to be forgotten) under Article 17 GDPR, the right to restriction of processing under Article 18 GDPR, the right to object under Article 21 GDPR and the right to data portability under Article 20 GDPR. Restrictions according to §§ 34 and 35 of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) apply to the right of access and the right to erasure.
Note on your right to object pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1, para. 2 GDPR
Based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR (data processing on the basis of legitimate interests) you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your data if there are reasons arising from your particular situation.
If you file an objection, the Company will no longer process your personal data unless compelling legitimate grounds for processing your data can be proven which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (reconsideration).
Insofar as the Company processes your personal data in order to carry out direct marketing on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for marketing purposes. The Company will comply with your objection for the future unreservedly and without further consideration. In this case, the Company will no longer process your data for direct marketing purposes.
You may revoke your consent to the processing of personal data at any time. A revocation can also apply to declarations of consent issued to the Company prior to the validity of the GDPR, i.e. before 25 May 2018. Please note that the revocation can only have a future effect. Processing that took place before the revocation is not affected by this.

Personal data that are not necessary for the respective processing purposes will be marked by the Company as voluntary data.
Automated decision-making/profiling
The Company does not employ any purely automated decision-making procedures (including profiling).
