How are your personal data processed and for what purposes?

When we receive data from you, it is generally only processed for the purposes for which we have received or collected it.

Processing data for other purposes is only considered if the necessary legal requirements under Art. 6 para. 4 DSGVO are met. We will of course observe any information obligations under Art. 13 para. 3 DSGVO and Art. 14 para. 4 DSGVO in this case.

The creation, storage, and use of photographs and video recordings of a content creator is done for the marketing purposes of Hetzner Online GmbH.



What is the legal basis for processing your data?

The legal basis for the processing of personal data is, unless there are specific legal provisions, Art. 6 DSGVO. In particular, the following options are possible:

  • consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO)
  • performance of a contract / to entering into a contract (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO)
  • compliance with a legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO)
  • processing follows balance of interests requirements (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO).



How long will the data be stored?

We process the data for as long as necessary for the respective purpose.

If there are legal retention obligations (e.g. under commercial or tax law), the relevant personal data will be stored for the duration of the retention obligation. After the retention obligation has expired, it will be checked whether there is a further requirement for processing. If the requirement no longer exists, the data will be deleted.

Of course, you can request information about the data we have stored about you at any time (see below) and, if there is no longer a requirement, you can request that the data be deleted or the processing restricted.



To whom will your data be disclosed?

In principle, we only pass on your personal data to third parties if

  • this is necessary for the performance of the contract with you
  • the transfer is permissible based on a balance of interests within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO
  • we are legally obliged to transfer it or
  • you have given your consent.

As part of cooperation agreements between a content creator and Hetzner Online GmbH, the data of the content creator is also transferred to third parties. We refer to the data protection declaration of the following affected companies:
