Privacy Policy
We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our enterprise. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of
Florian Renner Photography. The use of the Internet pages of the Florian Renner Photography is possible without any indication of
personal data; however, if a data subject wants to use special enterprise services via our website, processing of personal data could
become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain
consent from the data subject.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line
with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to
the Florian Renner Photography. By means of this data protection declaration, our enterprise would like to inform the general public of the
nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed, by means of this
data protection declaration, of the rights to which they are entitled.
As the controller, the Florian Renner Photography has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most
complete protection of personal data processed through this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions may in principle have
security gaps, so absolute protection may not be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transfer personal data to us via
alternative means, e.g. by telephone.
1. Definitions
The data protection declaration of the Florian Renner Photography is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of
the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration should be legible and understandable for the general
public, as well as our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to first explain the terminology used.
In this data protection declaration, we use, inter alia, the following terms:
a) Personal data
Personal data means 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
Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person, whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the
processing.
c) Processing
Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by
automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, 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 is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.
e) Profiling
Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal
aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person's performance at work,
economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.
f) Pseudonymisation
Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data
subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and
organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
g) Controller or controller responsible for the processing
Controller or controller responsible for the processing 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 nomination may be provided for by
Union or Member State law.
h) Processor
Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
i) Recipient
Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third
party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with
Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients; the processing of those data by those public authorities shall be in
compliance with the applicable data protection rules according to the purposes of the processing.
j) Third party
Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons
who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal data.
k) Consent
Consent of the data subject 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.

With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet website, which is operated by the controller and into which a Facebook
component (Facebook plug-ins) was integrated, the web browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically
prompted to download display of the corresponding Facebook component from Facebook through the Facebook component. An overview
of all the Facebook Plug-ins may be accessed under https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/. During the course of this technical
procedure, Facebook is made aware of what specific sub-site of our website was visited by the data subject.
If the data subject is logged in at the same time on Facebook, Facebook detects with every call-up to our website by the data subject—and
for the entire duration of their stay on our Internet site—which specific sub-site of our Internet page was visited by the data subject. This
information is collected through the Facebook component and associated with the respective Facebook account of the data subject. If the
data subject clicks on one of the Facebook buttons integrated into our website, e.g. the "Like" button, or if the data subject submits a
comment, then Facebook matches this information with the personal Facebook user account of the data subject and stores the personal
data.
Facebook always receives, through the Facebook component, information about a visit to our website by the data subject, whenever the
data subject is logged in at the same time on Facebook during the time of the call-up to our website. This occurs regardless of whether the

12. Legal basis for the processing
Art. 6(1) lit. a 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 party, as is the case, for example,
when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service, the processing is based on Article 6(1)
lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in
the case of inquiries concerning our products or services. Is our company subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data
is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of
personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for
example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be
passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR. Finally, processing
operations could be based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the
abovementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third
party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require
protection of personal data. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the
European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a client of the controller (Recital 47
Sentence 2 GDPR).
13. The legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party
Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favor of the
well-being of all our employees and the shareholders.
14. Period for which the personal data will be stored
The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that
period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a
contract.
15. Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement; Requirement necessary to enter into a contract; Obligation of the
data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data
We 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). Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with
personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data
when our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the contract
with the data subject could not be concluded. Before personal data is provided by the data subject, the data subject must contact any
employee. The employee clarifies 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 the consequences of non-
