2. General information and mandatory information

Privacy

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal data protection regulations and this Privacy Policy. When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to personally identify you. This Privacy Policy explains which data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens. We point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g., when communicating by email) may have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.

Notice regarding the responsible party

The responsible party for data processing on this website is: leasyro GmbH Solmsstr. 21 10961 Berlin Phone: +49 30 98447614 E-Mail: info@leasyro.com Responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).

Retention period

Unless a more specific storage period is stated within this Privacy Policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing ceases to apply. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or withdraw consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial retention obligations); in the latter case, deletion will occur after these reasons no longer apply.

General information on the legal bases for data processing on this website

If you have consented to the processing of data, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR if special categories of data pursuant to Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed. In the case of an explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing also takes place on the basis of Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access information on your end device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), data processing additionally takes place on the basis of § 25(1) TDDDG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time. If your data are required for the performance of a contract or the implementation of pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data where it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The specific legal bases applicable in each individual case are explained in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.

Notice on the transfer of data to the USA and other third countries

We use, among other things, tools from companies based in the United States or other third countries that do not offer adequate data protection. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in those third countries. We point out that in these countries a level of data protection comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed. For example, US companies can be obliged to disclose personal data to security authorities without you, as the data subject, being able to effectively challenge this in court. It therefore cannot be ruled out that US authorities (e.g., intelligence services) may process, analyze and permanently store your data located on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence over these processing activities.

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can withdraw a consent you have given at any time. The lawfulness of the processing carried out up to the time of withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to object to data processing in specific cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on those provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR). If your personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection pursuant to Art. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, and to have them transmitted to yourself or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transmission of the data to another controller, this will only be carried out insofar as it is technically feasible.

Right to access, rectification and deletion

Under the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and, where applicable, a right to rectification or deletion of these data. For this purpose and for further questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we generally need time to verify this. During the period of verification, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request restriction of data processing instead of erasure.

If we no longer need your personal data, but you need them for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing instead of erasure.

If you have lodged an objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data—apart from storage—may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content—such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as site operators—this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the change of the browser’s address line from "http://" to "https://" and by the padlock symbol in your browser’s address bar. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

3. Data collection on this website

Cookies

Adjust cookie settings Our websites use so-called "cookies." Cookies are small data packets and do not harm your end device. They are stored either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (persistent cookies) on your device. Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit. Persistent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or they are automatically deleted by your web browser. Cookies can originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain third-party services within web pages (e.g., cookies for the processing of payment services). Cookies serve different functions. Many cookies are technically necessary because certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies can be used to analyze user behavior or for advertising purposes. Cookies that are necessary for the execution of the electronic communication process, for providing certain functions you desire (e.g., for the shopping cart function), or for optimizing the website (e.g., cookies for measuring the web audience) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, processing takes place exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TDDDG); consent can be withdrawn at any time. You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies on a case-by-case basis, reject the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and enable automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may restrict the functionality of this website. Which cookies and services are used on this website can be found in this privacy policy.

Server log files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files that your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

Browser type and browser version

Operating system used

Referrer URL

Hostname of the accessing computer

Time of the server request

IP address

A merging of these data with other data sources is not carried out. The collection of these data is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website – for this purpose the server log files must be recorded.

Contact form

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, the information you provide in the inquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass these data on without your consent. The processing of these data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), if this was requested; consent can be revoked at any time. The data you enter in the contact form remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after completed processing of your inquiry). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Inquiry by e-mail, telephone or telefax

If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or telefax, your inquiry, including all personal data resulting from it (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We do not pass these data on without your consent. The processing of these data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), if this was requested; consent can be revoked at any time. The data you send us by contact inquiries remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after completed processing of your request). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

Communication via WhatsApp

For communication with our customers and other third parties we use, among other things, the instant messaging service WhatsApp. The provider is WhatsApp Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. Communication takes place via end-to-end encryption (peer-to-peer), which prevents WhatsApp or other third parties from accessing the communication contents. However, WhatsApp does receive access to metadata that are generated in the course of the communication process (e.g. sender, recipient and time). We further point out that, according to WhatsApp, it shares personal data of its users with its U.S.-based parent company Meta. Further details on data processing can be found in WhatsApp’s privacy policy at: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/privacy-policy-eea. The use of WhatsApp is based on our legitimate interest in as fast and effective communication as possible with customers, prospects and other business and contractual partners (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). If corresponding consent has been requested, data processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of that consent; it can be revoked at any time with effect for the future. The communication contents exchanged between us and on WhatsApp remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for which the data were stored no longer applies (e.g. after completed processing of your inquiry). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected. We use WhatsApp in the "WhatsApp Business" variant. The data transfer to the USA is based on the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses. Details can be found here: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/business-data-transfer-addendumWe have configured our WhatsApp accounts so that they do not perform an automatic data sync with the address book on the smartphones in use. We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) with the provider named above.

In addition, the provider of the tool processes all technical data that are necessary for handling the online communication. This includes in particular IP addresses, MAC addresses, device IDs, device type, operating system type and version, client version, camera type, microphone or speakers as well as the type of connection. If content is exchanged, uploaded or otherwise provided within the tool, this is also stored on the servers of the tool providers.

Purpose and legal bases

The conferencing tools are used to communicate with prospective or existing contractual partners or to offer certain services to our customers (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
