5. Legal Basis for Processing of Personal Data

With your participation in our event, whether in connection with its initiation, performance or termination, the legal basis for processing is Article 6 paragraph 1 sentence 1 lit b GDPR. Your data will be stored until the end of the statutory retention period, which is generally seven years. In all other cases, the legal basis is Article 6 paragraph 1 sentence 1 lit f of the GDPR, according to which the processing of personal data may be carried out without the consent of the data subject if the processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of the controller or of 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, in particular if the data subject is a child. Communication outside a contractual relationship is in our mutual interest. We store your data until the purpose resulting from the legitimate interest is fulfilled.

If a contractual relationship is established between us regarding the participation in an event, we will subsequently process your data for the purpose of performing and, if necessary, terminating the contractual relationship. This typically results in the processing of further data. In this respect, the legal basis of the processing is Article 6 paragraph 1 sentence 1 lit b GDPR. In this case, we store the data until the end of the statutory retention period, which is generally seven years.

6. Photos and Videos of Event

We do not expect to take your photo or a video of you during MPN Spring Symposium 2021. However, the online-sessions of the Webinar may be recorded for educational, informative, or advertising purposes. These recordings may be published on our internet and intranet sites, profiles on social networks, newsletter programs and other media. There is no legal obligation to collect this data. As long as we do not take photographs and/or videos, you will not be visible on any recordings.

The legal basis is your consent within the meaning of Article 6 paragraph 1 sentence 1 lit a GDPR together with Article 7 GDPR. We would like to point out that you can revoke this consent at any time by sending an informal message to us (see above “Data Controller“). We would like to point out that your consent may also include the processing of special categories of personal data within the meaning of Article 9 paragraph 1 GDPR, so that the processing prohibition pursuant to Article 9 paragraph 1 GDPR does not apply because of your consent in accordance with Article 9 paragraph 2 lit a GDPR.

7. Data Protection

We maintain up-to-date technical measures to ensure data security, in particular to protect your personal data from risks during data transmission and from third parties gaining knowledge of them. These measures are always adapted to the current state of the art.

8. Your Rights in connection with the Processing of Personal Data

With regard to data privacy, you have various rights. However, these rights may be subject to conditions which we will insist on. In detail you have the following rights:

Right of access by the data subject (Article 15 GDPR):
In accordance with Article 15 GDPR, you have the right to receive information about your personal data processed by us at any time and free of charge. We will send you this information in electronic form or as a copy upon request.

Right to rectification (Article 16 GDPR):
In accordance with Article 16 GDPR, you can demand that we correct processed incorrect personal data.

Right to erasure (Article 17 GDPR):
Under the conditions of Article 17 GDPR, you can demand from us the immediate erasure of the personal data concerning you. You can demand the erasure of your personal data if, among other things, they are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or processed, if you revoke any consent you may have given and no other legal basis applies, if you have objected to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate reasons for the processing or if the data processing was unlawful.

Right to restriction of processing (Article 18 GDPR):
You have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted if the conditions of Article 18 GDPR are met.

Right to data portability (Article 20 GDPR):
This right exists if the data processing was carried out with your consent or was necessary for the performance of the contract.

Right to object (Article 21 GDPR):
Under Article 21 GDPR, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for reasons arising from your particular situation.
