1. Registration
1. Description and scope of data processing

On our website we offer users the opportunity to register by providing personal data. The data is entered into an input mask and transmitted to us and stored. A transfer of data to third parties does not take place. The following data is collected as part of the registration process:

E-mail address
Surname
first name
Telephone / mobile number
Date and time of registration
Date of birth

As part of the registration process, the user's consent to the processing of this data is obtained.

2. Purpose of data processing

Registration of the user is required to fulfill a contract with the user or to carry out pre-contractual measures.

We process the data provided to us for the execution of the contract, depending on the desired payment method for a pre-contractual check and for any processing of warranty claims. The legal basis for this can be found in Art. 6 Para. 1 c) and f) GDPR. In addition, the service providers we use (such as logistics companies, payment brokers) receive the necessary data about you or your order. Depending on the chosen payment method, we also carry out credit checks. Without correct information on personal data, we can either not accept orders at all or only with a limited selection of payment methods. As part of the operation of our company, we process your data using our IT systems. In some cases, we use external service providers to process your data. These have been carefully selected and commissioned by us, are bound by our instructions and are regularly checked. We can also process the data you provide in order to inform you about other interesting products from our portfolio or to contact you on specific occasions. 5. How do we collect and process data for inquiries or notifications by post, fax, e-mail or via a contact form? If you send us inquiries or messages by post, fax, e-mail or via a contact form which relate to orders, we will save your inquiry or message as well as our answer as part of our commercial and tax retention obligations as correspondence to the respective order or to your customer account. In the case of other inquiries or notifications by post, fax, e-mail or via a contact form, we use the personal data you provide in the request exclusively to answer your request, but do not subsequently save your request and the personal data provided in the request.

3. Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for processing the data is Article 6 Paragraph 1 Clause 1 Letter a GDPR if the user has given his consent.

If the registration serves to fulfill a contract to which the user is a party or to carry out pre-contractual measures, the additional legal basis for the processing of the data is Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. b GDPR.

4. Duration of storage

The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected.

This is the case for the data collected during the registration process to fulfill a contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures if the data is no longer required for the execution of the contract. Even after the conclusion of the contract, it may be necessary to store personal data of the contractual partner in order to comply with contractual or legal obligations.

5. Possibility of objection and elimination

As a user, you have the option to cancel the registration at any time. You can have the data stored about you changed at any time.

You have the right to request us to delete your personal data under the conditions of Art. 17 Para. 1 GDPR. However, this right does not exist in particular if the processing is necessary to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information, to fulfill a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. To request deletion, service@aece-official.com can be contacted.

If the data is required to fulfill a contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures, the data can only be deleted prematurely if there are no contractual or legal obligations to the contrary.

1. Duration of storage

Your personal information will be stored for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this privacy policy or as required by law, e.g. for tax and accounting purposes.
2. Transmission to third countries

When using the plugins marked with third country transfer or USA, personal data can be transferred to servers in the USA. The legal basis for this transmission is consent in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter a GDPR. The United States of America does not offer an adequate level of data protection based on a decision by the European Union. The main risk of the transfer lies in the obligation of the plugin provider to make user data accessible to American authorities under certain circumstances. There is currently an order processing contract with all providers with standard contractual clauses in order to make the third-country transfer as data protection-friendly and secure as possible. We are currently striving for adjustments to the judgment of the ECJ of July 16, 2020 (Schrems II, Az. C-311/18), including additional security precautions. A copy of the standard data protection clauses can be requested by sending an informal email to us.

3. Possibility of revocation and elimination
