Processing of your data in the context of therapeutic services provided by us

If you are our customer or business partner or are interested in our services, the type, scope and purpose of the processing of your data depends on the contractual or pre-contractual relationship existing between us. In this sense, the data processed by us includes all those data that are or were provided by you for the purpose of using the contractual or pre-contractual services and that are required to process your inquiry or the contract concluded between us. Unless otherwise stated in the further notes to this data protection declaration, the processing of your data and its transfer to third parties is limited to those data that are necessary and expedient to answer your inquiries and/or to fulfill the contract concluded between you and us, to protect our rights and to fulfill legal obligations. We will inform you which data is required for this before or in the course of data collection. Insofar as we use third-party providers to provide our services, the data protection notices of the respective third-party providers apply.

Special categories of data:

If you are a patient with us or submit an inquiry to us because you are interested in the healthcare services we offer, so-called special categories of data may also be affected by the data processing. This includes, in particular, information about your health, possibly with reference to your sex life or sexual orientation, genetic and biometric information, as well as information that reveals your racial or ethnic origin (Article 9 (1) GDPR). We process this data exclusively for the purpose of your health care or to protect your vital interests. If we need the above-mentioned information for purposes other than those just mentioned (preventive health care, protection of vital interests), we will inform you of this in detail before we process this data and then obtain your express consent. 

If it is necessary for the fulfillment of the contract concluded between us, for the protection of your vital interests or due to legal requirements, we will transmit your data to third parties, such as authorities, medical institutions, laboratories, billing offices and tax consultants, in compliance with our professional confidentiality requirements.

Data concerned:

  • Inventory data (e.g. names, addresses)
  • Payment data (e.g. bank details, invoices)
  • Contact data (e.g. e-mail address, telephone number, postal address)
  • Contract data (e.g. subject matter of contract, duration of contract)

Special categories of personal data:

  • Health data
  • Genetic data
  • Biometric data
  • Data concerning sexual life or sexual orientation
  • Data revealing racial or ethnic origin

Data subjects: Patients, prospective patients, business and contractual partners

Purpose of processing:

Abwicklung vertraglicher Leistungen, Kommunikation sowie Beantwortung von Kontaktanfragen, Büro und Organisationsverfahren

Legal basis:

Contract performance and pre-contractual inquiries, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, legal obligation, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR), legitimate interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

Deletion:

We delete your data after expiry of the legal warranty and comparable obligations, i.e. basically after 4 years. If legal regulations require the archiving of your data (e.g. for tax reasons or because of professional requirements, in this case usually 10 years), we delete this data after the expiry of these periods. Otherwise, we delete your data after the contractual relationship between us has ended.

Your rights under the GDPR

According to the GDPR, you are entitled to the rights listed below, which you can exercise at any time by contacting the data controller named in section 1. of this privacy statement:

  • Right to information:  You have the right to request information from us about whether and what data we process from you.
  • Right to rectification: You have the right to request the rectification of incorrect or completion of incomplete data.
  • Right to erasure: You have the right to request the erasure of your data.
  • Right to restriction: in certain cases, you have the right to request that we only process your data in a restricted manner.
  • Right to data portability: You have the right to request that we transfer your data to you or another responsible party in a structured, common and machine-readable format.
  • Right to complain: You have the right to complain to a supervisory authority. The supervisory authority of your usual place of residence, your workplace or our company headquarters is responsible.

Right of withdrawal

You have the right to revoke your consent to data processing at any time.

Right of objection

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your data, which we base on our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. If you make use of your right to object, we ask you to explain the reasons. We will then no longer process your personal data unless we can prove to you that compelling reasons worthy of protection for the data processing outweigh your interests and rights..

Irrespective of the above, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data for purposes of advertising and data analysis.

Please address your objection to the contact address of the data controller given above.

When do we delete your data?

We delete your data when we no longer need it or when you instruct us to do so. This means that – unless otherwise stated in the individual data protection notices of this data protection declaration – we delete your data,

  • when the purpose of the data processing has ceased to exist and thus the respective legal basis stated in the individual data protection notices no longer exists, e.g.
    • after termination of the contractual or membership relationship existing between us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or
    • after our legitimate interest in the further processing or storage of your data ceases to exist (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR),
  • if you exercise your right of withdrawal and no other legal basis for processing within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. b-f GDPR applies,
  • if you exercise your right to object and there are no compelling legitimate grounds for deletion.

If, however, we still need to retain (certain parts of) your data for other purposes, for example because tax retention periods (generally 6 years for business correspondence or 10 years for accounting records) or the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims arising from contractual relationships (up to four years) make this necessary, or if the data is needed to protect the rights of another natural person or legal entity, we will delete (that part of) your data only after these periods have expired. However, until the expiration of these periods, we limit the processing of this data to these purposes (fulfillment of the retention obligations).

Online advertising

We use services to play out internet advertising. Through the services we use, certain user data is collected by a cookie or pixel. This includes, in particular, the information from which website you have accessed our website (so-called referrer), which pages of our website you have accessed, how long you have visited our pages and which interactions you have carried out there. In addition, data on the browser you use, computer system and type of device are collected. In addition, demographic information such as age or gender can be collected as pseudonymous values via such a service. If you have consented to the collection of your location data, this may also be processed, depending on the provider. In order to collect and store this data, the respective service places a cookie or a so-called counting pixel on the end device used by you, with which the IP address assigned to you is also collected. However, this is shortened via a so-called IP masking procedure, so that the IP address can no longer be assigned to your visit to our website. In principle, no clear data such as names or e-mail addresses are stored when using the respective service. This is only the case if you are a member of a social network that offers one of the services mentioned below and merges your profile with the aforementioned data material.

The data is analyzed by the service we use to produce a report with statistical statements about the number of visitors generated via the advertising and the success of the advertising measure. The reports show, among other things, the total number of users who were redirected to our website via our ads. In addition, the reports contain information on the end devices and browsers of the users, at which locations the users were located, at which times the advertisement was clicked. However, the reports do not contain any information that could be used to personally identify you as a user of our site.

We would like to point out that, depending on the location of the service provider, the data collected via the service may be transferred and processed outside the area of the European Union. In this case, there is a risk that the level of data protection prescribed by the GDPR may not be complied with and that the enforcement of your rights may not be possible or may be difficult.

Data concerned:

  • Usage data (e.g. access times, web pages clicked on).
  • Communication data (e.g. information about the device used, IP address).

Messenger services

We communicate via messenger services. Messenger services are chat programs that can be used to send text messages, as well as image or video files, between users in real time over the Internet. In addition, messenger services can also be used to transmit emoticons, electronic greeting cards and contacts. In order for messages to be transmitted, the participants must be connected to each other with a computer program (called a client) via a network such as the Internet, either directly or via a server. As a rule, messages can also be sent when the other party is not online – the message is then cached by the service’s server and later delivered to the recipient when he or she is available again. Finally, these services can also be used for screen transmission and online gaming.

If the service uses end-to-end encryption for the sent content (texts, attachments), only the selected communication partners, but not third parties or the service provider itself, can view the message. In this respect, we recommend that you regularly install updates for the service to ensure that the content is encrypted. However, the service provider has the option of accessing the metadata of the communication. This includes the time and (depending on the setting) location of the communication as well as the device you are using.

We would like to point out that, depending on the country of domicile of the provider mentioned below, the data collected via its platform may be transmitted and processed outside the area of the European Union. In this case, there is a risk that the level of data protection prescribed by the GDPR may not be complied with and that the enforcement of your rights may not be possible or may be difficult.
