Processing of personal data
Processing of personal data
Processing of personal data when data is transmitted by email:
The website www.dantz-ip.com provides email addresses for contacting the data controller. If the data subject contacts the data controller via this website, the personal data transmitted by the data subject is automatically saved. The data is stored solely for the purposes of processing or contacting the data subject. The provider 1&1 is used to process email traffic, and the emails are stored on its server. The transmitted data is therefore passed on to third parties. The data is deleted when the statutory retention periods have expired and it is no longer required to fulfill the contract.
Processing of personal data as part of other data collection:
The Dantz IP law firm offers legal advice and representation. For this purpose, the following personal data of the person commissioning the legal advice/legal representation (clients) as well as the personal data of the defendants are usually stored and processed:
- Name
- Address
- Telephone number
- Fax number
- Email address (on the defendant's side only if he is an entrepreneur within the meaning of Section 14 of the German Civil Code)
- If applicable, name of the legal representative (on the defendant's side)
- If applicable, contact details of the legal representative (on the defendant's side)
The storage serves solely for the purposes of legal advice/legal action against clients and defendants. Furthermore, personal data (name, company or authority and official telephone and fax number as well as the official email address) of business partners and representatives of authorities who support us in legal action are stored and processed. The data is passed on to third parties as follows: Dantz law firm -> forwarding to a tax office to fulfill tax obligations; Höhne law firm -> forwarding to a tax office to fulfill tax obligations and forwarding of the data to and/or collection of the data by an office service provider. If there is no professional obligation of confidentiality, confidentiality agreements and contract data processing contracts that meet the legal requirements exist. The data is deleted when the statutory retention periods have expired and it is no longer required to fulfill the contract.

You have the right to request information about whether the personal data concerning you will be transferred to a third country or to an international organization. In this context, you can request to be informed about the appropriate guarantees in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer.
Right to rectification
You have the right to have the personal data concerning you rectified and/or completed by the controller if the personal data concerning you that are processed are incorrect or incomplete. The controller must carry out the rectification immediately.
Right to restriction of processing
Under the following conditions, you can request the restriction of the processing of personal data concerning you:
- if you contest the accuracy of the personal data concerning you for a period that enables the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
- the processing is unlawful and you refuse to delete the personal data and instead request the restriction of the use of the personal data;
- the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but you need them to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, or
- if you have objected to the processing in accordance with Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate reasons of the controller outweigh your reasons.
If the processing of personal data concerning you has been restricted, this data - apart from its storage - may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or a Member State.
If processing has been restricted in accordance with the above conditions, you will be informed by the controller before the restriction is lifted.
Right to erasure
You can request that the controller delete the personal data concerning you immediately, and the controller is obliged to delete this data immediately if one of the following reasons applies:
- The personal data concerning you are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
- You withdraw your consent on which the processing was based in accordance with Art. 6 (1)(a) or Art. 9 (2)(a) GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
- You object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 Para. 2 GDPR.
- The personal data concerning you have been processed unlawfully.
- The deletion of the personal data concerning you is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States.
- The personal data concerning you were collected in relation to information society services offered in accordance with Art. 8 (1) GDPR.
If the person in charge has made the personal data concerning you public and is obliged to delete them in accordance with Art. 17 (1) GDPR, he shall take appropriate measures, including technical ones, taking into account the available technology and the implementation costs, to inform data controllers who process the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested that they delete all links to these personal data or copies or replications of these personal data.
The right to deletion does not exist if the processing is necessary
- to fulfill a legal obligation requiring processing under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject, or to perform a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
- for reasons of public interest in the area of public health in accordance with Art. 9 (2)(h) and (i) and Art. 9 (3) GDPR;
- for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89 (1) GDPR, insofar as the right referred to in paragraph 1 is likely to make the realization of the objectives of this processing impossible or seriously compromises it, or
- to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
Right to information
If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing vis-à-vis the responsible party, the responsible party is obliged to inform all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you was disclosed of said rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing, unless doing so should prove impossible or involve disproportionate expenditure.
You have the right to be informed by the responsible party of these recipients.
Right to data portability
You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have made available to the controller in a structured, common and machine-readable format. In addition, you have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data was made available, provided that
- the processing is based on consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 Para. 2 lit. a GDPR or on a contract in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR and
- the processing is carried out using automated procedures.
In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transmitted directly from one controller to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be impaired by this.
The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data that is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the person in charge.
Right of objection
You have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(e) or (f) GDPR for reasons arising from your particular situation.
The controller will no longer process the personal data concerning you unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR.
