III. DEFINITIONS

(1) “personal data” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person;

(2) ‘processing’ means any operation or set of operations which is performed upon 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;

3) “restriction of processing” means the marking of stored personal data for the purpose of restricting their future processing;

(4) ‘profiling’ means any form of automated processing of personal data by which personal data are used to evaluate personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict certain personal aspects concerning that natural person, in particular his or her performance at work, economic situation, state of health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements;

(5) ‘pseudonymisation’ means the processing of personal data in such a way that it is no longer possible to identify the natural person to whom the personal data relate without further information, provided that such further information is kept separately and technical and organisational measures are taken to ensure that no natural person who is identified or identifiable can be linked to that personal data;

(6) ‘filing system’ means a set of personal data, structured in any way, whether centralised, decentralised or structured according to functional or geographical criteria, which is accessible on the basis of specified criteria;

(7) ‘controller’ means the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or any other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of the processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for the designation of the controller may also be determined by Union or Member State law;

(8) ‘processor’ means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or any other body which processes personal data on behalf of a controller;

(9) ‘recipient’ means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or any other body to whom or with which personal data are disclosed, whether or not a third party. Public authorities that may have access to personal data in the context of an individual investigation in accordance with Union or Member State law are not recipients; the processing of those data by those public authorities must comply with the applicable data protection rules in accordance with the purposes of the processing;

(10) ‘third party’ means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or any other body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor or the persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal data;

(11) ‘data subject’s consent’ means a freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she signifies, by a statement or by an act unambiguously expressing his or her consent, that he or she signifies his or her agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her;

(13) ‘undertaking’ means any natural or legal person, regardless of its legal form, engaged in an economic activity, including partnerships or associations engaged in a regular economic activity.

IV. LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING

  1. Consent of the data subject

(1) The lawfulness of the processing of personal data must be based on the data subject’s consent or on some other lawful basis laid down by law.

(2) Where processing is based on the data subject’s consent, the data subject may give his or her consent to the processing of his or her personal data in the following form:

(a) in writing, in the form of a declaration of consent to the processing of personal data,

(b) electronically, by an explicit conduct on the Company’s website, by ticking a box, or by making technical settings when using information society services, as well as by any other statement or act which, in the relevant context, clearly indicates the data subject’s consent to the intended processing of his or her personal data.

(3) Silence, ticking a box or inaction shall therefore not constitute consent. (4) Consent covers all processing activities for the same purpose or purposes.

(5) Where processing is carried out for more than one purpose at the same time, consent must be given for all the purposes of the processing. Where the data subject gives his or her consent following an electronic request, the request shall be clear and concise and shall not unnecessarily impede the use of the service for which consent is sought.

(6) The data subject shall have the right to withdraw his or her consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent prior to its withdrawal. The data subject shall be informed before consent is given. The withdrawal of consent shall be made possible in the same simple manner as the giving of consent.

  1. Performance of the contract

(1) Processing shall be regarded as lawful where it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party or where it is necessary for the purposes of taking steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into the contract.

(2) The consent of the data subject to the processing of personal data which are not necessary for the performance of the contract shall not be a condition for the conclusion of the contract.
