5. Who Receives Your Data?

  • Within Evergreen Media AR GmbH, only those departments or employees receive your data to the extent they need it for processing for the respective purposes. In addition, processors commissioned by us (IT service providers, etc.) receive your data if they need the data to fulfill their respective services. All processors have been carefully selected and ensure through appropriate technical and organizational measures that the processing of your data is in accordance with data protection obligations and that your rights are guaranteed. In particular, processors are not permitted to use your personal data for their own purposes.
  • We use the following processors in particular to process your data:
  • Currently, all data is processed only internally.

6. International Data Transfers

  • Some of the above-mentioned recipients may be located outside Austria or the EU or process your data there. The level of data protection in other countries may not correspond to that in Austria or the EU.
  • However, we only transfer your personal data to countries for which the EU Commission has decided that they have an adequate level of data protection, or we implement measures to ensure that all recipients have an adequate level of data protection. For example, we conclude standard contractual clauses.

7. Storage Duration

  • We process your personal data for as long as is reasonably necessary to achieve the above purposes, as well as in accordance with legal retention and documentation obligations or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
  • In principle, your data will therefore be deleted after revocation of your consent or your objection, unless storage is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation or to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims. Further processing only takes place if you have expressly consented to the further use of your data or if we have reserved a data processing beyond that which is permitted by law.
  • There is the possibility that instead of deletion, anonymization of the data is carried out. In this case, any personal reference is irrevocably removed, which is why the data protection deletion obligations also cease to apply. In this case, no personal reference can be restored.

8. What Rights Do You Have?

Some data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent already given at any time. The legality of data processing carried out until revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

8.2. Right to Object to Data Collection (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data processing is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data for reasons arising from your particular situation. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you lodge an objection, we will no longer process your affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR).

8.3. Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.

8.4. Information, Deletion, and Correction

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data.

8.5. Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request restriction of data processing instead of deletion.

If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.

If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may—apart from its storage—only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.

9. Right to Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or your data protection rights have otherwise been violated in some way, you can complain to the supervisory authority. In Austria, the Data Protection Authority is responsible.
