1. General Information on Data Processing

1.1 Processing of Personal Data and Purpose

Byrud Dynamics GmbH (hereinafter referred to as "Byrud Dynamics" or "we") processes personal data of users exclusively to the extent necessary to provide a functional website as well as our content and services.

  • IP address of the user (in anonymized form)
  • Browser used (type, version)
  • Operating system used
  • Device type used
  • Date and time of access to our website
  • Requested webpages or files on our site
  • Website from which the user accessed our website
  • Website that the user accesses via our website

The processing and temporary storage of the IP address is necessary to deliver the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must be stored for the duration of the session. The log files contain IP addresses or other data that allow user identification. Storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the websites. Additionally, the data serve to optimize our websites and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. Any processing of personal data is carried out exclusively for the purposes stated and to the extent necessary to achieve these purposes. These data are not used for advertising, customer consulting, or market research purposes.

1.2 Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data

The processing of personal data of our users generally occurs after the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for practical reasons, and the processing of the data is permitted by legal regulations. The storage of data and log files is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

1.3 Data Deletion and Storage Duration

The personal data of the affected individuals are deleted or blocked by us as soon as the purpose of storage ceases. In the case of data processing for providing the websites, deletion occurs when the respective session is terminated. In the case of storage of personal data in log files, deletion occurs at the latest after seven days. Further storage is possible if the IP addresses of the users are deleted or altered beforehand so that assignment to the accessing client is no longer possible.

2. Cookies

We use cookies in several places on our websites. When a user accesses one of our websites, a cookie may be stored on the user's operating system. A cookie contains a characteristic string that allows unique identification of the browser upon revisiting our websites. The following data are stored and transmitted in the cookies:

The purpose of using cookies is to design our websites in a user-friendly manner. The processing of personal data using cookies is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted to our websites from there. Users can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies by changing the settings of their internet browser. Already stored cookies can be deleted at any time. If cookies are deactivated for our websites, not all functions of our websites may be fully usable.

8. Rights of the Data Subject

If Byrud Dynamics processes your personal data, you are a data subject according to Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR, and you have the following rights vis-à-vis Byrud Dynamics:

8.1 Right to Access

You can request confirmation from us according to Art. 15 GDPR as to whether personal data concerning you are being processed by us. If we process your personal data, you can request information from us about the following:

  • The purposes of processing;
  • The categories of personal data we process;
  • The recipients or categories of recipients to whom your personal data have been or will be disclosed;
  • If possible, the planned duration for which your personal data will be stored, or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining the storage duration;

  • The existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
  • All available information about the source of the data, if the personal data were not collected from you;
  • The existence of automated decision-making, including profiling (Art. 22 paras. 1 and 4 GDPR), and—at least in these cases—meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for you.

You have the right to request information as to whether your personal data are transferred to a third country or an international organization. In this context, you can request to be informed of the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR in connection with the transfer.

8.2 Right to Rectification

According to Art. 16 GDPR, you have the right to request from us the rectification and/or completion of inaccurate personal data concerning you.

8.3 Right to Erasure

You can request from us under Art. 17 GDPR that your personal data be erased without undue delay. We are obliged to erase your data without undue delay if one of the following reasons applies:

  • Your personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
  • You withdraw your consent on which the processing is based according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR, and there is no other legal ground for the processing.
  • You object to the processing according to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing according to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.
  • Your personal data have been unlawfully processed.
  • The erasure of your personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which we are subject.
  • Your personal data have been collected in relation to the offer of information society services referred to in Art. 8 para. 1 GDPR.

If we have made your personal data public and are obliged to erase them pursuant to Art. 17 para. 1 GDPR, we shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, considering available technology and the cost of implementation, to inform controllers who are processing the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested the erasure of any links to, or copies or replications of, your personal data.

The right to erasure does not exist to the extent that processing is necessary:

  • For exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;
  • For compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member State law to which we are subject, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in us;
  • For reasons of public interest in the area of public health (Art. 9 para. 2 lit. h and i, as well as Art. 9 para. 3 GDPR);
  • For archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, or statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89 para. 1 GDPR, insofar as the right referred to is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing; or
  • For the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

8.4 Right to Restriction of Processing

Under the following conditions, you can request the restriction of processing of your personal data according to Art. 18 GDPR:

  • If you contest the accuracy of your personal data for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
  • If the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of their use instead;
  • If we no longer need your personal data for the purposes of processing, but you require them for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims; or
  • If you have objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR and it has not yet been determined whether our legitimate grounds override your grounds.

If the processing of your personal data has been restricted, these data—apart from their storage—may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or for protecting the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or a Member State. If the restriction of processing was limited according to the aforementioned conditions, you will be informed by us before the restriction is lifted.

8.5 Right to Notification

If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing against us, we are obliged under Art. 19 GDPR to notify all recipients to whom your personal data have been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed by us about these recipients.

8.8 Right to Withdraw Consent under Data Protection Law

You have the right to withdraw your data protection consent declaration at any time, e.g., by email to info@byrud.de. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

8.9 Automated Individual Decision-Making, Including Profiling

According to Art. 22 GDPR, you have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing—including profiling—which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision:

  • Is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and us;
  • Is authorized by Union or Member State law to which we are subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or
  • Is based on your explicit consent.

8.10 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—particularly in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement—if you consider that the processing of your personal data by us infringes the GDPR.
