Rights of data subjects

As a data subject, you have the rights set out in Articles 15 to 22 GDPR. These include, in particular:

  • the right of access to your personal data being processed
  • the right to rectification of inaccurate data

If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates data protection regulations, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority.

The competent supervisory authority is The Brandenburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Access to Information.

Disclosure of personal data

Personal data are disclosed to third parties only where this is permitted by law or where appropriate consent has been given. Personal data may also be disclosed where we are legally obliged to do so, for example to public authorities.

Within our company, we ensure that access to personal data is limited to those persons who require such data in order to perform their duties.

Storage period

Personal data are stored only for as long as is necessary for the respective purposes of processing. Certain data may also be subject to statutory retention periods, for example under commercial or tax law. Once the purpose of processing no longer applies or the applicable retention periods have expired, the data will be deleted.

Data security and encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the “https” in your browser’s address bar and by the padlock symbol.

In addition, we use technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss, manipulation or unauthorised access.

Transfers of data to third countries

Personal data are transferred to countries outside the European Union or the European Economic Area only where there is a legal basis for doing so, for example consent or a statutory obligation.

Wichtiger Hinweis vor der Veröffentlichung: Der letzte Abschnitt „Social plugins“ stammt offenbar noch aus einem älteren Bestand der Website und steht zusätzlich zum vorherigen Abschnitt „Social-Media-Plugins“. Dort werden unter anderem noch der EU-US Privacy Shield, alte Twitter-/Facebook-Firmendaten und klassische Social Plugins genannt. Ich würde diesen Abschnitt nicht ungeprüft in die neue englische Seite übernehmen. Auch die Passage „Newsletter and contact forms“ sollten wir prüfen, wenn Bioökonomie.de tatsächlich kein Kontaktformular verwendet. Der aktuelle deutsche Ausgangstext enthält diese Angaben allerdings noch, deshalb habe ich sie hier zunächst vollständig mitübersetzt.
