last updated: 2020-10-07

We are very pleased about your interest in our company. The protection and security of your personal information is very important to us and has high priority. Using the website of Identum Communications GmbH is basically possible without any indication of personal data. However, if you want to use all the services through our website, personal data processing may be required.

When we process personal information (such as a person's name, address, e-mail address or telephone number), we always comply with the General Data Protection Regulation and in accordance with the applicable national data protection regulations. In this privacy policy we inform you about the most important aspects of data processing within our website, which type of data is collected and for what purpose it is collected. Furthermore, data subjects are informed of their rights under this privacy policy. If the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally seek the consent of the data subject.

Identum Communications GmbH, as responsible for data processing, has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible for personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security breaches, so that an absolute protection can not be guaranteed. For this reason, every person concerned is free to submit their personal data in alternative ways, for example by telephone. If you have any questions, please contact us.

If you contact us via the form on the website or by e-mail (office@identum.at), your data will be stored for six months to process the request and (in case) follow-up questions. We will not share this information without your consent.

1.6. Pseudonymisation

Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in a manner in which personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the need for additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separate and subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data is not assigned to an identified or identifiable natural person.

 

1.7. Controller or controller responsible for the processing

The controller is the natural or legal person, public authority, or other institution, that - alone or together with others - decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data. Are the purposes and means of such processing determined by European Union law or the law of the Member States, the law may intend to provide a controller and the specific criteria for his designation.

This general data and information is stored in the log files of the server. Captured is data as (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used, (3) the website from which a system accesses our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-web pages accessed on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) the anonymized Internet Protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the systems and (8) other similar data and information used in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

This anonymously collected data and information is therefore used statistically and further evaluated by Identum Communications GmbH with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data processed by us. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by an affected person.

17. Privacy on applications/application process as well as publication of job advertisements

Identum Communications GmbH collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of processing the application process. The processing can also be done electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant submits corresponding application documents by electronic means, for example by e-mail or via a web form located on the website, to the Identum Communications GmbH.
If Identum Communications GmbH concludes a contract of employment with an applicant, the transmitted data for the purpose of the employment relationship are stored in compliance with the legal regulations. If no contract of employment is concluded with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that deletion does not conflict with any other legitimate interests. Other legitimate interest in this sense, for example, a burden of proof in a procedure under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG), if a longer storage is necessary or if you have explicitly agreed to a longer storage in our prospect database.

 

18. Your rights

In principle, you have the rights to information, correction, deletion, restriction, data portability, revocation and opposition. If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or if your data protection claims have otherwise been violated in a way, you can complain to the supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the data protection authority.

 

19. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data

Identum Communications GmbH shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted by the European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the Controller is subject to.
If the storage purpose is not applicable, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another competent legislator expires, the personal data are routinely blocked or erased in accordance with legal requirements.

 

20. Legal basis for the processing

Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service, the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries concerning our products or services.
Is our company subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfilment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR.
Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a client of the Controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

 

21. The legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favour of the well-being of all our employees and the stakeholders.

 

22. Period for which the personal data will be stored

The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

 

23. Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement; Requirement necessary to enter into a contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal

data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data
We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded. Before personal data is provided by the data subject, the data subject must contact us via office@identum.at.
The controller will then clarify whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and the consequences of non-provision of the personal data e.
If you want to prevent this transmission and storage of data about you and your behavior on our website by the respective provider, you must log out of these providers before you visit our site.
You can find out more about the data collection of the respective providers on their web platforms.

 

24. Change of this privacy policy

We may update this policy from time to time. In the event we make material changes that reduces your rights under this policy, we will post a prominent notice in this section of this policy notifying users when it is updated. If you have any questions or concerns about this policy or its application, or if you believe your personal information has been used in a way that is not consistent with this policy or your specified preferences, please contact us by mail: office@identum.at

 

25. Contact

Due to legal regulations, the website of Identum Communications GmbH contains information that enables quick electronic contact with our company as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If an affected person contacts the data controller by e-mail or through a contact form, the personal data provided by the data subject will be automatically saved.
Such personal data, voluntarily transmitted by an individual to the controller, is stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. There is no disclosure of this personal data to third parties.
