We are very pleased that you are interested in our company. Data protection is a top priority for immigration management in Europe.

You can use the immigration in Europe e.V. website without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to use specific company services via our website, the processing of personal data may be necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as a data subject’s name, address, email address, or phone number, must always comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to “immigration in Europe.” Through this privacy policy, our company wishes to inform the general public about the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed, through this privacy policy, of the rights they possess.

As the data controller, immigration in Europe e.V. has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most comprehensive protection of the personal data processed by this website. However, data transmissions over the Internet may, in principle, involve security risks, meaning that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, data subjects are free to provide us with personal data by other means, such as by telephone.

1. Definitions

The immigration in Europe Privacy Policy is based on the terminology used by the European legislator in adopting the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our Privacy Policy is intended to be readable and understandable to the general public, as well as to our customers and business partners. To this end, we would first like to explain the terminology used.

In this privacy policy, we use, among others, the following terms:

a) Personal Data

Personal data refers to 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, an identification 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.

b) Data subject

A data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller.

c) Processing

Processing means any operation or set of operations performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction.

d) Restriction of processing

Restriction of processing means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.

e) Profiling

Profiling is any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain aspects of a natural person’s personality, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s work performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location, or movements.

f) Pseudonymization

Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way that the data can no longer be attributed to a specific individual without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

g) Controller

The controller is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or 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 such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its designation may be provided for by Union or Member State law.

h) Processor

The processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

i) Recipient

A recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body to whom personal data is disclosed, whether or not that body is a third party. However, public authorities that may receive personal data in the context of a specific investigation in accordance with Union or Member State law are not considered recipients; the processing of such data by these public authorities must comply with the applicable data protection rules depending on the purposes of the processing.

j) Third party

A third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor, and the persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or the processor, are authorized to process personal data.

k) Consent

The data subject’s consent is any freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

2. Name and address of the data controller

The data controller for the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), other applicable data protection laws in the Member States of the European Union, and other data protection provisions is:

3. Cookies

The immigration in Europe website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on a computer system via a web browser.

Many websites and web servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a “cookie ID.” A cookie ID is a unique identifier for the cookie. It consists of a string of characters that allows web pages and servers to be assigned to the specific web browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser from other web browsers that contain other cookies. A specific web browser can be recognized and identified using the cookie’s unique ID.

Through the use of cookies, ‘immigration in Europe e.V.’ can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the use of cookies.

The data subject may, at any time, prevent the installation of cookies through our website by adjusting the settings of the web browser being used, and may thus permanently refuse the installation of cookies. In addition, cookies that have already been installed may be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software. This is possible in all common web browsers. If the data subject disables the installation of cookies in the web browser being used, it is possible that not all features of our website will be fully usable.

4. Collection of General Data and Information

The immigration in Europe e.V. website collects a range of general data and information whenever a user or an automated system accesses the website. This general data and information is stored in the server’s log files. The data collected may include (1) the types and versions of browsers used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (the “referrers”), (4) the subpages visited, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Internet Protocol (IP) address, (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) any other similar data and information that may be used in the event of attacks on our computer systems.

When using this general data and information, immigration in Europe e.V. does not draw any conclusions about the individual concerned. Rather, this information is necessary to (1) properly display the content of our website, (2) optimize the content of our website as well as its advertising, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our IT systems and website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyberattack. Consequently, immigration in Europe e.v. statistically analyzes the collected data and information anonymously, with the aim of enhancing our company’s data protection and security, and ensuring an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data from the server log files is stored separately from any personal data provided by a data subject.

5. Contact Options via the Website

The immigration in Europe e.V. website contains information that enables quick electronic contact with our company, as well as direct communication with us, including a general email address. If a data subject contacts the data controller via email or through a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject is automatically stored. This personal data voluntarily transmitted by a data subject to the data controller is stored for the purpose of processing the request or contacting the data subject. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties.

6. Routine Deletion and Blocking of Personal Data

The data controller processes and retains the data subject’s personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose of retention, or to the extent that the European legislator or other competent legislators permit this in the laws or regulations to which the data controller is subject.

If the purpose of the retention is no longer applicable, or if a retention period prescribed by European legislation or other competent legislation expires, personal data is systematically blocked or deleted in accordance with legal requirements.

7. Your Rights

a) Right to Confirmation

Every data subject has the right, granted by European law, to obtain from the data controller confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning them is being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to confirmation, they may contact any employee of the data controller at any time.

b) Right of Access

Every data subject has the right, granted by European law, to obtain from the data controller, free of charge, information regarding the personal data concerning them that is stored at any time, as well as a copy of such information. In addition, European directives and regulations grant the data subject access to the following information:

the purposes of the processing;
the categories of personal data concerned;
the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organizations;
if possible, the envisaged period for which the personal data will be stored, or, if not possible, the criteria used to determine that period;

In addition, the data subject has the right to obtain information indicating whether personal data is transferred to a third country or to an international organization. If so, the data subject has the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer.

If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of access, they may, at any time, contact any employee of the data controller.

d) Right to erasure (Right to be forgotten)

Every data subject has the right, granted by European law, to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning them without undue delay, and the controller is obligated to erase personal data without undue delay when one of the following grounds applies, provided that the processing is not necessary:

The personal data is no longer necessary in light of the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
The data subject withdraws the consent on which the processing is based pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR, and where there is no other legal basis for the processing.
The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the GDPR.
The personal data has been processed unlawfully.
The personal data must be erased to comply with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.

• Personal data was collected in connection with the provision of information society services as referred to in Article 8(1) of the GDPR.

  If any of the above reasons apply and a data subject wishes to request the erasure of personal data stored by immigration in Europe e.V., they may contact any employee of the data controller at any time. An employee of immigration in Europe e.V. must ensure that the request for erasure is complied with immediately.

  Where the data controller has made personal data public and is required, pursuant to Article 17(1), to erase such data, it shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform other controllers processing the personal data that the data subject has requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copies or replications of, that personal data, insofar as the processing is not necessary. An employee of immigration in Europe e.V. will take the necessary measures in individual cases.

  e) Right to restriction of processing

  Every data subject has the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain from the controller a restriction of processing in any of the following cases:

  The data subject disputes the accuracy of the personal data, for a period that allows the data controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
  The processing is unlawful, and the data subject objects to the erasure of the personal data and requests instead that its use be restricted.
  The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but the data is necessary for the data subject to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
  The data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR pending verification of whether the controller’s legitimate grounds override those of the data subject.

  If any of the above conditions are met and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of the processing of personal data stored by immigration in Europe e.V., they may contact any employee of the data controller at any time. The employee of immigration in Europe e.V will take the necessary steps to restrict the processing.

f) Right to data portability

Every data subject has the right, granted by European law, to receive the personal data concerning them, which has been provided to a data controller, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. They have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data has been disclosed, provided that the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, provided that the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Furthermore, in exercising their right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) of the GDPR, the data subject has the right to have personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and provided that this does not infringe upon the rights and freedoms of others.

To exercise the right to data portability, the data subject may contact any employee of immigration in Europe e.V. at any time

g) Right to object

Every data subject has the right, granted by European law, to object at any time, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them that is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

In the event of an objection, immigration in Europe e.V. will no longer process the personal data, unless we can demonstrate that there are legitimate and compelling grounds for the processing that override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

If immigration in Europe e.V. processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning them for such marketing. This applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to processing for direct marketing purposes, immigration in Europe e.V. will no longer process personal data for such purposes.

In addition, the data subject has the right, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to object to the processing of personal data concerning him or her by immigration in Europe e.V. for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.

To exercise their right to object, the data subject may contact any employee of immigration in Europe e.V. Furthermore, the data subject is free, in the context of using information society services and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to exercise their right to object by automated means using technical specifications.

h)Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

• Every data subject has the right, granted by the European legislator, not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning the data subject or significantly affects him or her, provided that such a decision (1) is not necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and a controller, or (2) is not authorized by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also provides for appropriate measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is not based on the data subject’s explicit consent.

  If the decision (1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and a controller, or (2) is based on the explicit consent of the data subject, immigration in Europe e.V. implements appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, at a minimum the right to obtain human intervention from the data controller, to express their point of view, and to contest the decision.

  Si

  If the data subject wishes to exercise their rights regarding automated individual decision-making, they may contact any employee of immigration in Europe e.V. at any time.

  i) Right to withdraw consent to data processing

  Every data subject has the right, granted by European law, to withdraw their consent to the processing of their personal data at any time.

  If the data subject wishes to exercise their right to withdraw consent, they may contact any employee of immigration in Europe e.v. at any time.

8. Data Protection for Applications and Application Procedures

The data controller collects and processes applicants’ personal data for the purpose of handling the application process. Processing may also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case when an applicant submits the relevant application documents to the data controller via email or through a web form on the website. If the data controller enters into an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be retained for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in accordance with legal requirements. If the data controller does not enter into an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents are automatically deleted two months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interest of the data controller precludes the deletion. Another legitimate interest in this regard is, for example, the burden of proof in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

9. Legal Basis for Processing

Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party—as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or the provision of any other service—the processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.

The same applies to processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries regarding our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation requiring the processing of personal data, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR.

In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured on our premises and their name, age, health insurance information, or other vital information needed to be provided to a doctor, a hospital, or another third party. In this case, the processing would be based on Article 6(1)(d) of the GDPR.

Finally, the processing could be based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations not covered by any of the aforementioned legal grounds, provided that the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, unless the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject that require the protection of personal data override those interests. Such processing is specifically permitted because it has been explicitly mentioned by the European legislator. The legislator has determined that a legitimate interest may be presumed if the data subject is a customer of the data controller (Recital 47, sentence 2, GDPR).

10. Legitimate interests pursued by the data controller or by a third party

When the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the Directive, our legitimate interest is to conduct our business in a manner that promotes the well-being of all our employees and shareholders.

11. Period for which personal data will be retained

The criterion used to determine the retention period for personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After this period expires, the corresponding data is systematically erased, provided it is no longer necessary for the performance of a contract or for the conclusion of a contract.

12. Provision of personal data as a legal or contractual requirement; a requirement necessary for the conclusion of a contract; the data subject’s obligation to provide personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data

We note that the provision of personal data is in part required by law (e.g., tax regulations) or may also result from contractual provisions (e.g., information about the contractual partner).

It may sometimes be necessary to enter into a contract under which the data subject provides us with personal data, which must then be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, required to provide us with personal data when our company enters into a contract with them. Failure to provide personal data would result in the contract with the data subject not being able to be concluded.

Before providing personal data, the data subject must contact any employee. The employee will inform the data subject whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract, or whether it is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data, and the consequences of failing to provide the personal data.

13. Use of automated decision-making

As a responsible company, we do not use automated decision-making or profiling.
