The protection of your personal data is a top priority for asp. consulting GmbH and its affiliated companies within the meaning of ยง 189a Z 8 UGB (asp.group). Due to the nature of its activities, asp.group is committed to exceptional confidentiality and discretion.
Concerning data processing, asp.group is in particular subject to the provisions of EU Regulation 2016/679 of April 27, 2016, (General Data Protection Regulation, GDPR) and the Federal Act concerning the Protection of Personal Data (Datenschutzgesetz, DSG)
Personal data is all data that contains individual details about the personal or factual circumstances of a person, such as their name, address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, age, gender, and social security number, but also video recordings, photos, or voice recordings of people.
Asp.group processes personal data only if and insofar as asp.group has been given the appropriate consent, if it is necessary to fulfill contractual or legal obligations or to protect the legitimate interests of asp.group and if this does not violate any applicable law.
Where asp.group does not receive personal data from the data subjects themselves, asp.group receives this data from business partners or service providers. In addition, asp.group also collects individual personal data from public sources, such as company websites or LinkedIn, of course only if and insofar as this does not violate any applicable law.
The processing is carried out exclusively for the proper and efficient execution and processing of all business-related activities of asp.group, in particular, due to an existing or future business relationship, for compliance with legal obligations (e.g., in connection with retention periods, money laundering, terrorist financing, etc.), for the purposeful and efficient business management, for the maintenance and optimization of our contact management (CRM), and if there is any other legal basis in accordance with applicable law.

5.1 Your personal data is protected by appropriate organizational and technical precautions. This particularly includes protection against unauthorized, unlawful, or accidental access, processing, use, manipulation, and loss.
Despite constant endeavors to maintain high standards of diligence, it cannot be ruled out that personal data processed by asp.group may be accessed or used unlawfully by third parties.
For this reason, asp.group accepts no liability whatsoever for the disclosure of information and/or unauthorized access by third parties due to errors for which asp.group is not responsible.
5.2 asp.group takes the security of your data very seriously and therefore aims to ensure that data breaches are detected at an early stage and, if necessary, that you or the responsible supervisory authority are notified, stating the category of data concerned.
If you enter a contractual relationship with asp.group, you will disclose personal data and, if applicable, company and business secrets. With the corresponding disclosure, you implicitly declare that you have sufficient authorization to disclose this data. In any case, asp.group will only use this data to the extent necessary to establish and fulfill the contractual relationship.
Asp.group uses the data provided by you exclusively for purposes that are covered by applicable law. The use of anonymized data for statistical purposes is excluded from this.
Asp.group retains your data until the purpose for the data processing no longer applies or until it is necessary for the defense of any liability claims. If you assert a justified request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless there are other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data. The retention periods differ depending on the respective processing purposes. On request, asp.group will provide you with specific information on the storage of your transmitted data.

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, it will take time to review your request. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of completion.
If asp.group no longer needs your personal data, but you need it for the exercise, defense, or assertion of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its completion.
If you have objected by Art. 21 (1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and those of asp.group. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

8.5 You have the right to have data that is processed automatically by asp.group based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format.
