9. Legal processing requirements
Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves as legal basis for our company for processing transactions during which we obtain consent for a certain processing purpose.
Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves as legal basis for our company for processing transactions during which we obtain consent for a certain processing purpose. Where processing personal data is used to fulfill contractual duties with the contractual party being the data subject, as is the case during processing transactions, for example, which are required for the delivery of goods or the provision of any other service or return service, such processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. This shall also apply for processing transactions required for the performance of pre-contractual measures, for example in the context of inquiries about our products or services. Where our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires processing of personal data, such as for the performance of tax obligations, such processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be required in order to protect the vital interests of the data subjects or any other natural persons. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were to be injured on the premises of our company and would have to pass on the name, age, health insurance data or other vital information to a doctor, hospital or any other third party. In such a case, the process would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Finally, processing transactions may be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. Processing transactions based on this legal foundation are those not included in any other previously mentioned legal bases or if the processing is required to maintain a legitimate interest of our company or of a third party as long as the interests, basic rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh such interests. We are particularly entitled to such processing transactions as they were particularly mentioned by the European legislature which is of the opinion that interests can be considered as legitimate if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47 Clause 2 GDPR).
10. Legitimate interests of the controller or third party
In the event that processing personal data is based on Art. 6 I lit. – f, our legitimate interest is to unfold our business in favor of our employees and business partners.
11. Duration of Data Strategy
We store your personal data according to respective legal retention periods. We routinely delete the corresponding data after these periods expire, provided that it is no longer necessary for the performance or initiation of a contract.
If the storage purpose ceases to apply, or if a compulsory storage period by European Union or national law expires, the personal data is routinely blocked or deleted in compliance with statutory provisions.
12. Contractual necessity as a lawful basis for processing
The second legal ground for lawful processing as mentioned in GDPR Article 6 is the necessity of personal data processing for a contract.
A natural person or data subject is a party in a contract or has to take steps in order to enter a contract, at his or her request, and in order to enter a contract or perform a contract, it is needed and agreed that personal data processing happens within this contractual scope. This isn’t really new in comparison with the Directive that is replaced by the GDPR.
13. GDPR
GLOBAL PRODUCTION CENTER LTD applies an internal framework of minimal policies and standards with regards to GDPR. These policies and standards are periodically analysed in order to comply with regulations and market evolution. In accordance with legal dispositions, we take appropriate technical and structural measures (policies, procedures, security etc.) especially to ensure confidentiality and data integrity as well as providing the necessary framework for processing said data.
