We are delighted that you are interested in our company. Data protection is particularly important to the management of Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. In principle, it is possible to use the webpages of Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject would like to make use of particular services of our company via our website, the processing of personal data may be necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation and in accordance with the country-specific data protection provisions that apply to Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. Using this privacy policy, our company would like to inform the public of the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data that we collect, use and process. In addition, this privacy policy provides data subjects with information about their rights.
As the data controller, Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure that the protection of the personal data processed via this website is as comprehensive as possible. Nevertheless, in principle, web-based data transfers can have gaps in security, as a result of which absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is at liberty to also transfer personal data to us by alternative means, for example via telephone.
The privacy policy of Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. uses terminology that was used by the European legislator when issuing the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our privacy policy is intended to be easy to read and understand for the public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure that this is the case, we would like to first explain the terminology used.
In this privacy policy, we use terms that include:
“Personal data” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereafter “data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
“Data subject” means any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data are processed by the data controller.
“Processing” means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
“Restriction of processing” means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.
“Profiling” means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.
“Pseudonymisation” means the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
“Controller” or “data controller” means the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.
“Processor” means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
“Recipient” means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients.
“Third party” means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal data.
“Consent” of the data subject means any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.
The controller, as defined in the General Data Protection Regulation, other data protection laws applicable in the Member States of the European Union and other provisions relating to data protection, is:

The webpages of Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. use cookies. Cookies are text files that are placed and stored on a computer system via a web browser.
Many webpages and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters that can be used to assign webpages and servers to the specific web browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the visited webpages and servers to differentiate the individual browser of the data subject from other web browsers that contain other cookies. A specific web browser can be recognised and identified via the unique cookie ID.
Using cookies enables Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. to make the services that it provides to the users of this website more user friendly than would be possible without placing cookies.
Using a cookie, the information and offerings on our website can be optimised for the user. As previously mentioned, cookies enable us to recognise visitors to our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website. For example, the user of a website that uses cookies does not have to enter his or her access data again every time he or she visits the website because this is performed by the website and the cookie placed on the user’s computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping basket in the online shop. Via a cookie, the online shop notices the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping basket.
At any time, the data subject can prevent our website from placing cookies by changing the settings of the used web browser accordingly and in doing so permanently refuse the placement of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been placed can be deleted at any time via a web browser or other software programs. This is possible in all standard web browsers. If the data subject deactivates the placement of cookies in the used web browser, it may not be possible to use all functions of our website to the fullest extent in certain circumstances.
The website of Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. collects a set of general data and information every time the website is visited by a data subject or an automated system. These general data and information are stored in the log files of the server. The following data and information can be collected: (1) the used browser types and versions, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website (or “referrer”) from which the accessing system accesses our website, (4) the subsites that are activated on our website via an accessing system, (5) the date and time of the accessing of our website, (6) an internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information that are used to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using this general data and information, Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is required to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimise the content of our website and the advertising for this website, (3) ensure the lasting functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website and (4) provide law enforcement agencies with the information required for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. Therefore, Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. evaluates these anonymously collected data and information statistically and with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data that we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.
The data subject has the option of registering on the website of the data controller by providing personal data. Which personal data are transferred to the data controller in doing so is determined by the respective input mask that is used for the registration. The personal data entered by the data subject are collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the data controller and for the data controller’s own purposes. The data controller may arrange the transfer of the personal data to one or more processors, for example a parcel service provider, which use the personal data also exclusively for an internal use that is assigned by the data controller.
Moreover, by registering on the website of the data controller, the IP address assigned by the internet service provider (ISP) of the data subject, and the date and the time of the registration are stored. These data are stored on the basis that this is the only way to prevent misuse of our services, and, if necessary, these data can be used to investigate crimes that have been committed. In this regard, the storage of this data is necessary to safeguard the data controller. In principle, these data are not transferred to third parties, provided that there is no legal obligation to do so and the transfer does not aid prosecution.
The registration of the data subject through the voluntary provision of personal data enables the data controller to offer the data subject content or services that, due to their nature, can only be offered to registered users. At any time, registered persons are at liberty to modify the personal data provided or have it deleted in its entirety from the database of the data controller.
Upon request and at any time, the data controller will tell any data subject which personal data relating to the data subject are stored. Moreover, the data controller will rectify or erase personal data at the request or under the instructions of the data subject, insofar as the data controller is not under a legal obligation to retain the data. All employees of the data controller are available to the data subject as points of contact with regard to this matter.
In accordance with statutory provisions, the website of Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. contains information that can be used to contact our company quickly and electronically and to communicate with us directly, including a general electronic mail address (email address). If a data subject contacts the data controller via email or via a contact form, the personal data transferred by the data subject are stored automatically. Such personal data transferred voluntarily to the data controller by a data subject are stored for the purposes of processing the message or contacting the data subject. This personal data is not transferred to a third party.
The controller 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 another legislator in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.
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 the statutory provisions.
Each data subject shall have the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain from the controller confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning him or her are being processed. If a data subject wishes to avail himself or herself of this right of confirmation, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.
Each data subject shall have the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain from the controller, at any time, free-of-charge information about the stored personal data concerning him or her and a copy of this information. Furthermore, the European legislator has granted the data subject access to the following information:
Furthermore, the data subject shall have a right to obtain information as to whether personal data has been transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. Where this is the case, the data subject shall have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer.
If a data subject wishes to avail himself or herself of this right of access, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.
Each data subject shall have the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him or her. Furthermore, taking into account the purposes of the processing, the data subject shall have the right to have incomplete personal data completed, including by means of providing a supplementary statement.
If a data subject wishes to avail himself or herself of this right to rectification, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.
Each data subject shall have the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning him or her without undue delay, where one of the following grounds applies and as long as the processing is not necessary:
If one of the above reasons applies and a data subject wishes to request the erasure of personal data stored by Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V., he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller. The employee of Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. shall ensure that the erasure request is complied with, without undue delay.
Where Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. has made the personal data public and our company, as controller, is obliged pursuant to Art. 17(1) GDPR to erase the personal data, Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V., taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers which are processing the personal data that the data subject has requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, those personal data, to the extent that the processing is not necessary. The employee of Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. shall arrange the necessary measures in individual cases.
Each data subject shall have the right, granted by the European legislator, to obtain from the controller restriction of processing where one of the following applies:
If one of the above reasons applies and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V., he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller. The employee of Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. shall arrange the restriction of processing.
Each data subject shall have the right, granted by the European legislator, to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which he or she has provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. Furthermore, he or she shall have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided, where the processing is based on consent pursuant to point (a) of Art. 6(1) GDPR or point (a) of Art. 9(2) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to point (b) of Art. 6(1) GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, as long as the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
Furthermore, in exercising his or her right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20(1) GDPR, the data subject shall have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and where doing so does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
In order to assert the right to data portability, the data subject may, at any time, contact any employee of Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V.
Each data subject shall have the right, granted by the European legislator, to object, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning him or her which is based on point (e) or (f) of Art.6(1) GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. shall no longer process the personal data in the event of the objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
If Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning him or her for such marketing. This also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject informs Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. of his or her objection to processing for direct marketing purposes, Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. will no longer process the personal data for such purposes.
In addition, the data subject shall have the right, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to object to processing of personal data concerning him or her by Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes pursuant to Art. 89(1) GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.
In order to exercise the right to object, the data subject may directly contact any employee of Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. or another employee. The data subject may, in the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, exercise his or her right to object by automated means using technical specifications.
Each data subject shall have the right, granted by the European legislator, not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her, provided that the decision (1) is not necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller, or (2) is not authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is not based on the data subject’s explicit consent.
If the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller, or (2) it is based on the data subject’s explicit consent, Arbeitsgemeinschaft City e.V. shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, which include at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to contest the decision.
If the data subject wishes to exercise the rights concerning automated decision-making, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.
Each data subject shall have the right, granted by the European legislator, to withdraw consent to the processing of personal data at any time.
If a data subject wishes to exercise his or her right to withdraw consent, he or she may, at any time, contact any employee of the controller.
The controller collects and processes personal data from applicants to manage the application process. The processing may also be carried out electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant sends their corresponding application documents to the controller via electronic means, e.g. by email or via a web form located on the website. If the controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored in compliance with the statutory provisions for the purpose of processing the employment relationship. If the controller does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents shall be automatically deleted two months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller prevent such deletion. Legitimate interest in this case may be, for example, the obligation to provide evidence in proceedings according to the General Act on Equal Treatment (Gleichbehandlungsgesetz — AGG).
The controller has integrated components of the company Facebook on this website. Facebook is a social network.
A social network is a social meeting place on the internet, an online community, which generally allows users to communicate with each other and interact in a virtual space. A social network can serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences, or enables the internet community to provide personal or company-related information. Facebook enables users of the social network to create private profiles, upload photos and network via friend requests, amongst other things.
The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. If a data subject lives outside the United States or Canada, the controller is Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.
With each visit to one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-in) has been integrated, the internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted by the respective Facebook component to download display of the corresponding Facebook component from Facebook. An overview of all the Facebook plug-ins can be accessed at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/. As part of this technical process, Facebook receives information about which specific sub-page of our website is visited by the data subject.
If the data subject is logged into Facebook while viewing our website, Facebook recognises which specific sub-page of our website the data subject is viewing each time the data subject accesses our website and for the entire duration of the respective session on our website. This information is collected through the Facebook component and associated with the respective Facebook account of the data subject. Should the data subject click on one of the Facebook buttons integrated on our website, e.g. the “Like” button, or if the data subject submits a comment, then Facebook matches this information with the personal Facebook user account of the data subject and stores the personal data.
Facebook always receives information via the Facebook component that the data subject has visited our website if the data subject is logged into Facebook at the same time as viewing our website; this occurs regardless of whether the data subject clicks on the Facebook component or not.

The privacy policy published by YouTube, available at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US/, provides information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by YouTube and Google.
Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for the processing operations in which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of another service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If the operator of this website is subject to the legal obligation by which a processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfilment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. In some cases, processing of personal data is necessary in order 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 to be injured on our premises and as a result his or her name, age, health insurance data or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Article 6(1)(d) GDPR. Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, the legislator considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a client of the controller. (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).
Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favour of the well-being of all our employees and the shareholders.
The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of this period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfilment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.
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, in order to conclude a contract, it may be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data that 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 our employee. The employee clarifies to the data subject 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.
20. Existence of automated decision-making
As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.
