Principles of data processing at MTE Deutschland GmbH
You have come to this page via a link because you want to find out about how we handle (your) personal data. In order to fulfil our information obligations under Articles 12 et seq. of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we are happy to provide you with the following information on data protection:
Who is responsible for data processing?
The controller within the meaning of data protection law is
MTE Deutschland GmbH
Auf der Birke 13
56412 Montabaur – Heiligenroth
You can find further information about our company, details of authorised representatives and further contact details in the legal notice on our website: www.mte.de/de/impressum
What data do we process about you? And for what purposes?
When we receive data from you, we will only process it for the purposes for which we received or collected it.
Data processing for other purposes will only be considered if the relevant legal requirements pursuant to Art. 6 (4) GDPR are met. We will, of course, comply with any information obligations pursuant to Art. 13 (3) GDPR and Art. 14 (4) GDPR in this case.
What is the legal basis for this?
The legal basis for the processing of personal data is, in principle, Article 6 GDPR, unless specific legal provisions apply. The following options are particularly relevant here:
Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR)
Data processing for the performance of contracts (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR
Data processing based on a balancing of interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR)
Data processing for the fulfilment of a legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR)
If personal data is processed on the basis of your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with future effect.
If we process data on the basis of a balancing of interests, you as the data subject have the right to object to the processing of personal data, taking into account the provisions of Art. 21 GDPR.
How long will the data be stored?
We process the data for as long as this is necessary for the respective purpose.
If there are legal storage obligations – e.g. under commercial or tax law – the relevant personal data will be stored for the duration of the storage obligation. After expiry of the storage obligation, we will check whether there is any further need for processing. If there is no longer any need, the data will be deleted.
You can, of course, request information about the data we have stored about you at any time (see below) and, if there is no need for it, request that the data be deleted or its processing restricted.
To whom is the data passed on?
Your personal data will only be passed on to third parties if this is necessary for the execution of the contract with you, if the transfer is based on a balancing of interests within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR, if we are legally obliged to pass it on or if you have given your consent in this regard. Where is the data processed?
Your personal data will be processed by us exclusively in data centres in the Federal Republic of Germany.
Your rights as a "data subject"
You have the right to obtain information about the personal data we process about you.
If you submit a request for information that is not in writing, we ask for your understanding that we may require proof from you that you are the person you claim to be.
Furthermore, you have the right to correction or deletion or to restriction of processing, insofar as you are legally entitled to do so.
Furthermore, you have the right to object to processing within the framework of the legal requirements. The same applies to the right to data portability.
In particular, you have the right to object to the processing of your data in connection with direct marketing in accordance with Art. 21 (1) and (2) GDPR if this is based on a balancing of interests.
