Definitions

The privacy policy is based on the terminology used by the European legislature and lawmakers in the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This privacy policy should be easy to read and understand for both the public and our customers, visitors and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain in advance the terminology used.

Among other things, the Operator uses the following terms in this privacy policy:

a) Personal data

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter the Data Subject). A natural person is considered to be identifiable who can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by association with an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or one or more special features expressing the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of this natural person.

b) Covered person

Covered person means any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller.

c) Processing

Processing means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

d) Restriction of processing

Restriction of processing means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting its processing in the future.

e) Profiling

Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.

f) Pseudonymisation/Anonymisation

Pseudonymisation - or even anonymisation - means the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific Data Subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
