The BargeTeam GmbH website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser.
Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It is a character string that can be used to assign websites and servers to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified using the unique cookie ID.

The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. The website user who uses cookies, e.g. Entering access data is not required every time the website is accessed, as these are taken over by the website and the cookie is therefore stored on the user's computer system.

16. Legal basis for processing
Art. Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations in 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 delivery of goods or the provision of another service, the processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data, such as to fulfill tax obligations, the processing is based on Article 6 (1) (c) 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 at our company and their name, age, health insurance details or other vital information needed to be disclosed to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter d GDPR. Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. f GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by one of the above-mentioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the first-mentioned interest does not outweigh the fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, which require the protection of personal data require data. Such processing operations are permitted in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In his opinion, a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).
17. The legitimate interests of the controller or a third party
If the processing of personal data is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and shareholders.
18. Period for which the personal data will be stored
The relevant statutory retention period is decisive for the duration of storage of personal data. After the deadline has expired, the relevant data will be routinely deleted unless it is no longer required to fulfill the contract or initiate a contract.
19. Providing personal data based on legal or contractual requirements; Requirement for the conclusion of the contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of not providing this data
We would like to clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). In order to conclude a contract, it may sometimes be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company enters into a contract with them. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the person concerned could not be concluded. Before the data subject provides personal data, the data subject must contact one of our employees. The employee explains to the data subject whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what consequences the failure to provide the personal data would have.
20. Presence of automated decision making
As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.
