We, solarfold, Sonnenweg 1-2, 5164 Seeham, Tel.: 0043 (6217) 6841-0, e-mail: info@solarfold.eu, take our responsibility for processing your personal data very seriously. We process your personal data exclusively in compliance with the statutory provisions, in particular the EU General Data Protection Regulation, the Data Protection Act (Datenschutzgesetz), the Data Protection Adjustment Act 2018 (Datenschutzanpassungsgesetz), and the Telecommunications Act (Telekommunikationsgesetz).

We collect, process and use your personal data only with your consent as provided within the context of an order or when making contact, for the purposes agreed with you or if there is another legal basis in accordance with the GDPR. This processing is carried out in compliance with data protection and civil law provisions. Your personal data, in addition to any documents or photographs you have uploaded, will be collected and processed by us for the purpose of processing and transferring data within the context of the business relationship with you as a partner (customer or supplier), including any associated electronically created and archived documents (such as correspondence). The following personal data is processed for this purpose: first and last name, date of birth, nationality, contact details (address, e-mail address, telephone contact details); order and delivery data; payment details.

Our main purpose when collecting personal data is to enable you to use the service safely, efficiently and personally. Your data will be used for the following purposes: the proper performance of the contract, processing the order, providing our products and services and adjusting, measuring and improving our performance.

Your personal data is protected by appropriate organisational and technical precautions. These precautions in particular relate to protection against unauthorised, illegal or accidental access, processing, loss, use and manipulation. Notwithstanding the efforts to maintain a consistently high level of due diligence requirements, it cannot be ruled out that the information you provide to us on the internet may be viewed and used by other people. Please note that we therefore accept no liability under any circumstances for the disclosure of information due to errors in data transmission if we are not at fault and/or due to unauthorised access by third parties (e.g. hacked e-mail account or telephone, interception of faxes).

It may also be necessary to forward your data to third parties (e.g. the shipping company commissioned to deliver the ordered goods) or authorities in order to fulfil our contract. Your data will only be forwarded on the basis of the GDPR, in particular to fulfil our contract, or on the basis of your prior consent. Some of the above-mentioned recipients of your personal data are located or process your personal data abroad. The level of data protection in other countries may not be the same as in Austria. However, we only transfer your personal data to countries if the EU Commission has decided that they have an adequate level of data protection or if we have taken measures to ensure that all recipients have an adequate level of data protection by concluding standard consumption clauses (2010/87/EC and/or 2004/915/EC).

We endeavour to ensure that data breaches are detected at an early stage and, if necessary, are immediately reported to you or the responsible supervisory authority, taking into account the respective affected data categories.

Your data will be stored until the end of the business relationship or until the applicable guarantee, statute of limitations and statutory retention periods have expired. Data will also be stored until the end of any legal disputes for which this data is required as evidence. The employees involved in the settlement and the process have access to the processed data.
