Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

1.Introduction

This website is operated by: Emergency Radiology Services GmbH.

It is very important to us to handle the data of our website visitors with confidence and to protect them in the best possible way. For this reason, we make every effort to comply with the requirements of the GDPR.

In the following, we explain how we process your data on our website. To do this, we use the clearest and most transparent language possible so that you really understand what happens with your data.

2.General information

2.1Processing of personal data and other terms

Data protection applies to the processing of personal data. Personal means all data with which you can be personally identified. This is, for example, the IP address of the device (PC, laptop, smartphone, etc.) in front of which you are currently sitting. Such data is processed when ‘something happens to it’. Here, for example, the IP is transmitted from the browser to our provider and stored there automatically. This is then a processing (according to Art. 4 No. 2 GDPR) of personal data (according to Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR).

These and other legal definitions can be found in Art. 4 GDPR.

2.2Applicable regulations/laws – GDPR, BDSG and TDDDG

The scope of data protection is regulated by laws. In this case, these are the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) as a European regulation and the BDSG (Federal Data Protection Act) as a national law.

In addition, the TDDDG supplements the provisions of the GDPR as far as the use of cookies is concerned.

2.3The person in charge

The person responsible for data processing on this website is the controller within the meaning of the GDPR. This is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

You can reach the person in charge at:

Emergency Radiology Services GmbH

Raiffeisenstrasse 58 47259 Duisburg HRB 36484

office@radailogy.com

2.4This is how data is basically processed on this website

As we have already established, there is data (e.g. IP address) that is collected automatically. This data is mainly required for the technical provision of the website. If we also use personal data or collect other data, we will inform you of this or ask for your consent.

Other personal data you share with us knowingly.

Detailed information on this can be found below.

2.5Your Right

The GDPR provides you with comprehensive rights. These are, for example, the free information about the origin, recipient and purpose of your stored personal data. In addition, you can request the correction, blocking or deletion of this data or complain to the competent data protection supervisory authority. You can revoke any consent you have given at any time.

You can find out in detail what these rights are and how to exercise them in the last section of this Privacy Policy.

2.6Data protection – Our view

Data protection is more than just a chore for us! Personal data is of great value and careful handling of this data should be a matter of course in our digitalized world. In addition, you as a website visitor should be able to decide for yourself what “happens” to your data, when and by whom. We therefore undertake to comply with all legal provisions, collect only the data that is necessary for us and, of course, treat it confidentially.

2.7Disclosure and deletion

The transfer and deletion of data are also important and sensitive topics. Therefore, we would like to briefly inform you in advance about our general approach to this.

A transfer of data only takes place on the basis of a legal basis and only if this is unavoidable. This may be the case in particular if it is a so-called Data Processor and a Data Processing Agreement has been concluded in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.

We delete your data when the purpose and the legal basis for processing cease to apply and the deletion does not conflict with any other legal obligations. A ‘good’ overview of this is also provided by Art. 17 GDPR.

For all further information, please refer to this Privacy Policy and contact the responsible person if you have any specific questions.

2.8Hosting

This website is hosted externally. The personal data collected on this website is stored on the host’s servers. This includes the automatically collected and stored log files (see below for more details), as well as all other data provided by website visitors.

External hosting is used for the purpose of secure, fast and reliable provision of our website and in this context serves to fulfill the contract with our potential and existing customers.

The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, b and f GDPR, as well as § 25 para. 1 TDDDG, insofar as consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the terminal device of the website visitor or user within the meaning of the TDDDG.

Our hoster only processes data that is necessary for the fulfillment of its service obligation and acts as our Data Processor, which means that it is subject to our instructions. We have concluded a corresponding Data Processing Agreement with our hoster.

We use the following hoster:

2.9Legal basis

4.This is also important

Finally, we would like to inform you in detail about your rights and how you will be informed about changes in data protection requirements.

4.1Your Rights in detail

4.1.1Right to information according to Art. 15 GDPR

You can request information about whether personal data about you is being processed. If this is the case, you can request further information on the type and manner of processing. A detailed list can be found in Art. 15 (1) lit. a to h GDPR.

4.1.2Right to rectification according to Art. 16 GDPR

This right includes the correction of inaccurate data and the completion of incomplete personal data.

4.1.3Right to deletion according to Art. 17 GDPR

This so-called ‘right to be forgotten’ gives you the right, under certain conditions, to request the deletion of personal data by the controller. This is generally the case if the purpose of the data processing has ceased to exist, if consent has been revoked or if the initial processing took place without a legal basis. A detailed list of reasons can be found in Art. 17 (1) a to f GDPR. Furthermore, this “right to be forgotten” corresponds with the obligation of the controller under Art. 17 (2) GDPR to take appropriate measures to bring about a general erasure of the data.

4.1.4Right to restriction of processing according to Art. 18 GDPR

This right is subject to the conditions set out in Art. 18(1)(a) to (d).

4.1.5Right to data portability according to Art. 20 GDPR

Here, the basic right to receive one’s own data in a common form and to transfer it to another data controller is regulated. However, this only applies to data processed on the basis of consent or a contract pursuant to Art. 20 (1) (a) and (b) and to the extent that this is technically feasible.

4.1.6Right of objection according to Art. 21 GDPR

In principle, you can object to the processing of your personal data. This applies in particular if your interest in objecting outweighs the legitimate interest of the controller in the processing and if the processing relates to direct marketing and or profiling.

4.1.7Right to “decision in individual cases” according to Art. 22 GDPR

In principle, you have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing (including profiling) which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. However, this right is also subject to limitations and supplements in Art. 22 (2) and (4) GDPR.

4.1.8Other rights

The GDPR contains comprehensive rights to inform third parties about whether or how you have asserted rights under Art. 16, 17, 18 GDPR. However, this only applies insofar as this is possible or feasible with reasonable effort.

We would like to take this opportunity to once again inform you of your right to withdraw your consent in accordance with Article 7 (3) of the GDPR. However, this does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out up to that point.

In addition, we would also like to inform you about your rights according to §§ 32 ff. BDSG, which, however, are largely congruent with the rights just described.

4.1.9Right of appeal according to Art. 77 GDPR

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes this Regulation.

5.What if tomorrow the GDPR is abolished or other changes take place?

The current status of this Privacy Policy is 29.11.2024. From time to time it is necessary to adapt the content of the Privacy Policy in order to react to actual and legal changes. We therefore reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time. We will publish the amended version in the same place and recommend that you read the Privacy Policy regularly.
