1. The contractor/supplier shall comply with the relevant legal provisions, and primarily the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), with regard to the customer’s personal data
 
2. The contractor/supplier collects, processes and uses the customer's personal data if and insofar as required for the justification, fulfilment and termination of this Agreement.
The customer's personal data is only collected, stored, processed and used for other purposes if required or permitted by law or if the customer has given consent to do so.
 
3. The customer is aware that it is necessary to collect, process and use the customer’s name, consumer and/or company characteristics, address, date of birth and bank details in accordance with Section 6 Paragraph 1 b) GDPR for implementing the pre-contractual measures and for fulfilling this Agreement.
 
4. The contractor/supplier may check the customer’s credit rating within the legally permissible scope and for the purpose of making a decision on the justification, fulfilment or termination of the purchase agreement. Assumptions are made and processed in this respect regarding the customer’s future conduct. The customer’s address details are also used for calculating these assumptions.
The contractor/supplier shall use the services of rating agencies, such as SCHUFA Holding AG, Wiesbaden, Germany, or other third parties for these credit checks and transfer the customer’s data to these agencies and/or request information on the customer from them for this purpose. The data is collected, processed and used for this purpose in accordance with Section 6 Paragraph 1 lit. b) GDPR.
 
5. The contractor/supplier may, in particular, transfer the customer’s data to third parties if and insofar as this is necessary for implementing pre-contractual measures and for fulfilling this Agreement (e.g. for dispatch, assembling, installing, invoicing and customer service purposes) in accordance with Section 6 Paragraph 1 b) GDPR or otherwise for compliance with a legal obligation within the meaning of Section 6 Paragraph 1 c) GDPR. The contractor/supplier may also transfer this data to third parties (e.g. debt collection agencies) for debt collection purposes in accordance with Section 6 Paragraph 1 b) GDPR.
 
6. The contractor/supplier shall provide the customer with free-of-charge information on the personal data stored which relates to the customer upon request and in accordance with legal requirements. The customer is entitled by law to request for their personal data to be corrected, deleted, restricted for processing or restricted for transfer to third parties. The customer may further complain to the supervisory authorities.
 
7. The customer may object to the potential use of their personal data (I) for the required performance of a task which is in the interest of the general public or is performed for the execution of public force transferred to the contractor/supplier or (II) for the required maintenance of the justified interests of the contractor/supplier or third party – as specified in Section 5 above, if applicable – in accordance with Section 21 Paragraph 1 GDPR, at any time by sending an informal notification to the contractor/supplier. The contractor/supplier shall no longer use the affected data once such objection has been received, unless the contractor/supplier can provide proof of prevailing, mandatory reasons for the use which are worth protecting.
The customer may also object to the potential use of their personal data for direct advertising purposes in accordance with Section 21 Paragraph 2 GDPR, at any time and free of charge, by sending an informal notice to the contractor/supplier.
