1. Personal Data<\/h4>\n

We, Chronothek Uhrenhandels GmbH (\u201cChronothek\u201d), collect, process, and use your personal data only with your consent for the purposes agreed upon with you or where another legal basis exists in accordance with the GDPR; this is done in compliance with data protection and civil law provisions.<\/p>\n

Only such personal data is collected as is necessary for the provision and processing of our services (purchase and sale of watches, sending newsletters) or that you have voluntarily provided to us.<\/p>\n

Personal data includes all information relating to personal or factual circumstances, such as name, address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, age, gender, social security number, video recordings, photographs, voice recordings of individuals, and biometric data such as fingerprints. Sensitive data, such as health data or data related to criminal proceedings, may also be included.<\/p>\n

2. Information and Deletion<\/h4>\n

As a customer of Chronothek or generally as a data subject, you have the right at any time to receive information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, as well as the right to correction, data portability, objection, restriction of processing, and blocking or deletion of incorrect or unlawfully processed data.<\/p>\n

If changes occur to your personal data, we kindly ask you to inform us accordingly.<\/p>\n

You have the right at any time to withdraw any consent previously granted for the use of your personal data. Requests for information, deletion, correction, objection, and\/or data transfer, provided the latter does not involve disproportionate effort, may be addressed to the contact information listed under section 10 of this statement.<\/p>\n

If you believe that the processing of your personal data by us violates applicable data protection laws or that your data protection rights have been infringed in any other way, you have the option to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. In Austria, the responsible authority is the Data Protection Authority.<\/p>\n

3. Data Security<\/h4>\n

The protection of your personal data is ensured through appropriate organizational and technical measures. These measures particularly concern protection against unauthorized, unlawful, or accidental access, processing, loss, use, and manipulation.<\/p>\n

Despite efforts to maintain an appropriately high standard of due care at all times, it cannot be excluded that information you disclose to us via the internet may be viewed and used by other persons.<\/p>\n

Please note that we therefore assume no liability whatsoever for the disclosure of information due to errors in data transmission not caused by us and\/or unauthorized access by third parties (e.g., hacking of email accounts or phones, interception of faxes).<\/p>\n

4. Use of Data<\/h4>\n

We will not process the data provided to us for purposes other than those covered by your order, your consent, or otherwise by a provision in accordance with the GDPR. Exceptions include use for statistical purposes, provided that the data has been anonymized.<\/p>\n

5. Transfer of Data to Third Parties<\/h4>\n

To fulfill your order, it may also be necessary to forward your data to third parties (e.g., service providers we engage and to whom we provide data, etc.). Your data will only be transferred on the basis of the GDPR, particularly for fulfilling your order or based on your prior consent.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, we inform you that within the scope of our customer relationship, information relating to specific circumstances or cases may also be obtained from third parties.<\/p>\n

Some of the recipients of your personal data mentioned above may be located outside your country or process your personal data there. The level of data protection in other countries may not correspond to that of Austria. However, we transfer your personal data only to countries for which the EU Commission has determined that an adequate level of data protection exists, or we take measures to ensure that all recipients provide an adequate level of data protection, including by concluding standard contractual clauses (2010\/87\/EC and\/or 2004\/915\/EC).<\/p>\n

6. Notification of Data Breaches<\/h4>\n

We strive to ensure that data breaches are identified at an early stage and, where appropriate, reported immediately to you and\/or the competent supervisory authority, including the respective categories of affected data.<\/p>\n

7. Data Retention<\/h4>\n

We will not retain data longer than necessary to fulfill our contractual or legal obligations and to defend against potential liability claims.<\/p>\n
