How We Handle Your Data<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Protecting your personal data is a matter of great importance to us. We process your data exclusively on the basis of statutory provisions (GDPR, BDSG, TDDDG). In this privacy policy, we inform you about the nature, scope, and purpose of the processing of personal data within the context of our online services.<\/p>

Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, your name, address, email address, or IP address.<\/p>

As a physiotherapy practice, we may also process health data, which is subject to special protection under Article 9 GDPR. How we handle this data is explained separately in Section 12 (Contact and Appointment Requests) and Section 13 (Storage Duration).<\/p>

Please note that data transmission over the internet (e.g., when communicating by email) can have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

1. Data Controller<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation is:<\/p>

L\u00e4mmerhirt Practice
Civil-law partnership (GbR), represented by the partners Martin L\u00e4mmerhirt and Jennifer L\u00e4mmerhirt
Schillerstra\u00dfe 30\u201340
60313 Frankfurt am Main, Germany
Phone: +49 (0) 69 92038093
Fax: +49 (0) 69 92038094
Email: info@praxis-laemmerhirt.de<\/a><\/p>

No data protection officer has been appointed. Under Article 37 GDPR in conjunction with Section 38 BDSG, there is no obligation to do so: fewer than 20 people in our practice are permanently engaged in the automated processing of personal data. As a small joint practice, we also do not carry out large-scale processing of special categories of personal data within the meaning of Article 37(1)(c) GDPR (cf. Short Paper No. 12 of the German Data Protection Conference).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

2. Rights of Data Subjects<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

As a data subject, you have the following rights:<\/p>

a) Right to Information, Erasure, and Rectification<\/strong>
Within the scope of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing (Article 15 GDPR), and, where applicable, a right to rectification (Article 16 GDPR) or erasure (Article 17 GDPR) of this data. Please note that statutory retention periods apply to treatment records (see Section 13), which may prevent immediate erasure.<\/p>

b) Right to Data Portability<\/strong>
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format (Article 20 GDPR). If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.<\/p>

c) Right to Restriction of Processing<\/strong>
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data (Article 18 GDPR). This right exists in particular if you contest the accuracy of the data, if the processing is unlawful, if we no longer need the data but you require it to assert legal claims, or if you have objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21 GDPR.<\/p>

d) Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing<\/strong>
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can withdraw consent you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out up to the point of withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.<\/p>

e) Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Article 21 GDPR)<\/strong>
If the data processing is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or unless the processing serves to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims. If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected with such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for the purpose of direct marketing.<\/p>

f) Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority<\/strong>
In the event of violations of the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of your habitual residence, your place of work, or the place of the alleged violation. The supervisory authority responsible for us is:<\/p>

The Hessian Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information
Gustav-Stresemann-Ring 1, 65189 Wiesbaden, Germany
P.O. Box 3163, 65021 Wiesbaden, Germany<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

3. Legal Basis for Processing<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Where we obtain consent from the data subject for processing operations involving personal data, Article 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis. When processing to fulfill a contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures, Article 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. Insofar as processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, Article 6(1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis. If the processing is necessary to protect legitimate interests and the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not override these interests, Article 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis.<\/p>

Insofar as health data is processed, the processing is additionally based on Article 9(2)(h) GDPR (processing for the purposes of health care, medical diagnosis, and treatment) in conjunction with Section 22 BDSG, or on your express consent pursuant to Article 9(2)(a) GDPR.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

4. Note on Data Transfer to Third Countries<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Among other things, we use services whose providers are based in the USA. This may result in a transfer of personal data to the USA. For the USA, there is an adequacy decision by the EU Commission (EU-US Data Privacy Framework). Insofar as we transfer data to providers certified under the Data Privacy Framework or with whom standard contractual clauses pursuant to Article 46 GDPR have been agreed, an adequate level of data protection is guaranteed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

5. Cooperation with Processors and Third Parties<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Insofar as, in the course of our processing, we disclose data to other persons and companies (processors or third parties), transmit it to them, or otherwise grant them access to the data, this is done only on the basis of a legal permission, your consent, a legal obligation, or on the basis of our legitimate interests. Insofar as we commission third parties to process data on the basis of a data processing agreement, this is done on the basis of Article 28 GDPR.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

6. Cookie Consent with Complianz<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

When you enter our website, a connection is established in order to obtain and store your consent.

Mandatory statutory retention periods remain unaffected.<\/p>
