The processing of your personal data takes place strictly within the EU or the European Economic Area.

Only in connection with the cooperation between the companies of the Beisheim Groups in Germany and Switzerland and/or the provision of IT services in connection with the operation of the website (such as the use of applications for website analysis) may information be transferred to recipients in so-called "third countries". "Third countries" means countries outside the European Union or the European Economic Area in which a level of data protection comparable to that in the European Union cannot readily be assumed.

If the information transferred also includes personal data, we will ensure that the appropriate level of data protection is safeguarded in the third country in question or by the recipient in the third country before such a transfer takes place. In the case of the Beisheim Group Switzerland companies based in Switzerland, the appropriate level of data protection results from a so-called "Adequacy Decision" of the European Commission establishing an adequate level of data protection for Switzerland as a whole. Further information on this and other adequacy decisions can be found on the European Commission's website here. Alternatively, we can also base the transfer of the data on the so-called "EU standard contractual clauses" agreed with a recipient (more information here) or – in the case of recipients in the USA – on compliance with the principles of the so-called "EU-US Privacy Shield" (more information on the participants here). We will be happy to provide you with additional information on the appropriate and reasonable safeguards for compliance with an appropriate level of data protection upon request; the contact details can be found at the beginning of this Data Privacy Statement.
