Legal Basis
The trust of our customers is of central importance to us. For us, this also includes protecting their privacy and keeping their data safe. This data privacy statement explains what data we collect, at what scope and for what reason we collect them. You also have a right to know what we use these data for. The legal basis for data protection can be found in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz; BDSG) and the Telemedia Act (Telemediengesetz; TMG).
You may wonder what the term “personal data” means to begin with. It refers to information that can be traced back to a specific person. For example, this includes the following components:
NXT LVL Brands GmbH processes such data if this is permitted by law. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 GDPR. This in turn requires that either the data subject has consented to processing of their personal data (this may apply to one or several specific purposes), or that the processing activities are necessary in order to perform a contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures, or in order to safeguard the legitimate interests of the controller or a third party. Nevertheless, the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject that require protection of personal data must be respected first and foremost.
Origin of Data
Where did we collect the data from? Usually, we simply collect them when you share them with us. You may enter them into a contact form, for example. It is generally your decision whether or not to enter any personal or business data (email addresses, names, addresses) on our website. Other, strictly technical, data are collected automatically by our IT systems whenever you open our website. These include, among other things, the time of the page call or the web browser used.
Purposes of Data Processing
We would like to improve our service for you and use, among other things, the contact data you provide to answer your queries. We also would like to analyse your user behaviour based on your input as this is the only way that we can optimally design and continually improve our website for you.
Duration of Data Storage
NXT LVL Brands GmbH only stores information for a specific period of time. On the one hand, the retention periods stipulated by tax and commercial law are decisive for us. On the other hand, business communication data must be stored for at least 6 years. We shall erase any data not subject to special provisions or requirements upon your request, if you revoke your consent to storage, or if the purpose for storing the data no longer applies.
Your Data Protection Rights
The law gives you the right to be in control of your data at all times. Specifically, this means:
What does this mean in detail?
Right to Information
Do you want to know whether we process any personal data concerning you and what those data are? We are required to inform you about this free of charge and will, of course, happily do so. We will even provide you with a copy of the data. You also have a right to the following information:
If any personal data are transferred to a third country, you may request adequate safeguards in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR.
Right to Rectification
You have the right to demand that we rectify your personal information without undue delay if it is incorrect. Depending on the purpose of processing, you may request that we complete your personal data, also by way of a supplementary declaration.
Right to Erasure (“Right to be Forgotten”)
Art. 17(1) GDPR gives you the right to demand that we erase your personal data without undue delay. We are obligated to comply with this request in the following cases:
What happens if we have made personal data public and are obligated to erase them in accordance with Art. 17(1) GDPR? In this case, we will inform the data controller processing the personal data that you have requested erasure of all links to, or copies or replications of, those personal data. We will take adequate measures for this, including technical ones, under consideration of the available technologies and reasonable implementation costs.
Right to Restrict Processing
You have the right to request that we restrict processing if one of the following conditions applies:
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to obtain the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit these data to another controller without any obstruction from us. The prerequisite for this is that
When exercising your right to data portability in accordance with Article 20(1) GDPR, you may have us transfer the personal data directly to another controller, as far as this is technically feasible.
Right to Object
You have the right to object to processing of your personal data based on points (e) or (f) of the first sentence of Art. 6(1) GDPR for personal reasons; this shall also apply to profiling based on these provisions. We shall no longer process the personal data in this case. There are only two exceptions from this:
If we process any personal data for direct marketing, you may object to this at any time; this shall also apply to the associated profiling.
You may also object if the data processing is performed for purposes of scientific or historical research or for statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89(1) GDPR. There is an exception here as well if the processing activities take place in the public interest.
Right to Withdraw Consent under Data Protection Law
You have the right to withdraw your consent to processing of personal data at any time. Processing activities conducted before the time of revocation shall remain lawful.
Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority
If you believe that processing of your personal data is unlawful, contact the competent supervisory authority. You may contact the data protection supervisory authority of the federal state in which you reside or the authority of the federal state in which NXT LVL Brands GmbH has its registered office. This is in North Rhine-Westphalia.
