5.3.6 Is there an obligation to provide your personal data?

In order to enter into a business relationship, you must provide us with the personal data that is necessary for the execution of the contractual relationship or that we are required to collect by law. If you do not provide us with this data, it is not possible for us to carry out and process the contractual relationship.

Where video surveillance is carried out at/in rental or administrative buildings and accesses to parking spaces, the legal basis is Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Legitimate interests are the protection of domestic rights, the detection and prosecution of criminal offences and the enforcement of civil law claims. In this case, a weighing of interests reveals that the legitimate interests of Berlinovo outweigh the interests of the persons concerned. A change in these purposes is not planned.

The records are only evaluated if there is a suspicion of a breach of domestic law or a criminal offence. In such cases, the relevant data may be transferred to law enforcement authorities, courts and lawyers. We also use service providers by way of order processing in the provision of services, in particular for the provision, maintenance and servicing of IT systems.

Recordings of video surveillance systems on administrative buildings and accesses to parking lots are regularly deleted after five days at the latest, recordings of systems on residential buildings after 72 hours at the latest. If a criminal offence is suspected, relevant data is stored until the conclusion of criminal and civil proceedings.

Regarding personal data relating to you, you have the following rights with respect to us:

7.1 Rights in General

You have a right to information Art. 15 GDPR, right of correction Art. 16 GDPR, right of deletion Art. 17 GDPR, right of limitation of the processing Art.18 GDPR and right of objection to the processing Art. 21 GDPR. The right of information and the right of deletion are subject to the restrictions according to §§ 34 and 35 BDSG.

7.2 Right of objection

You can object to the use of your data for advertising purposes at any time, without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the basic tariffs.

What right do you have in the event of data processing because of your legitimate or public interest?
In accordance with article 21 para. 1 of GDPR, you have the right, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of personal data relating to you that takes place on the basis of article 6 para. 1 lit. e GDPR (data processing in the public interest) or on the basis of article. 6 para. 1 lit. f of GDPR (data processing for safeguarding a legitimate interest). This also applying to any profiling based on this regulation. In the event of objection, we will no longer process your personal data, unless we can provide compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercising or defence of legal entitlements.

What right do you have in the event of data processing for direct marketing purposes?
If we process your personal data in order to conduct direct advertising you have the right, in accordance with article 21 para. 2 of GDPR, to object at any time to the processing of the personal data relating to you for purposes of such advertising; this also applies to profiling, to the extent that it is connected to such direct advertising.

7.5 Exercising your rights

To exercise your rights, you can contact the person responsible or the data protection officer at the contact details provided. We will process your enquiries immediately and in accordance with the legal requirements and inform you about the measures we have taken.

On principle, a transfer of your data to a third party does not take place, unless we are legally obliged to do so, or the passing-on of the data is necessary for the implementation of the contractual relationship, or you have previously consented, explicitly, to the passing-on of your data.

External service providers will only receive your data as far as this is necessary for processing the contractual relationship with you. In such cases, though, the scope of the data transferred is limited on the necessary minimum. If our service providers come into contact with your personal data, we make sure, in the context of the order processing in accordance with article 28 of GDPR, that they also comply in the same way with the regulations of data protection law. Please also note the respective information on data protection of the providers. As to the contents of external services, the respective service provider is personally responsible, whereby we, within the framework of reasonableness, check the services to ensure compliance with the statutory requirements.
We attach importance to the processing of your data within the EU / EEA.

That's why we deploy, for the data of tenants, only service providers within the EU.

It can, however, prove necessary for us to deploy service providers, that process the data outside the EU / EEA. In such cases we make sure, before transferring your personal data, that an appropriate level of data protection exists at the recipient's. What is meant by this is that, via EU standard contracts or an adequacy decision, such as the EU-US Privacy Shield, a level of data protection is achieved that is comparable to the standards applied within the EU.

We store your personal data as long as it is necessary to fulfil our legal and contractual obligations.

If storage of the data is no longer necessary for the fulfilment of contractual or legal obligations, your data will be deleted, unless their further processing is necessary for purposes such as the following:

• fulfilment of commercial and tax law retention obligations of 6 or 10 years according to § 257 AO, §§ 138, 147 HGB
• preservation of evidence within the framework of the legal statute of limitations: according to the statutes of limitation of the German Civil Code (BGB), these periods of limitation can in some cases be up to 30 years; the regular period of limitation is three years
• preservation of evidence in the case of rejected applicants in the event of actions under the AGG: 6 months
• storage obligation according to § 8 GwG: 5 years

We have taken extensive technical and operational protective measures to safeguard your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction and access by unauthorized persons. Our security procedures are regularly checked and adapted to allow for technological progress.

As a matter of principle, we do not use exclusively automated decision making or other profiling within the meaning of Art. 22 GDPR to establish and conduct the business relationship.

12.1 Changes to this

Should the purpose or manner of processing your personal data change significantly, we will update this information in good time and inform you of the changes in good time.
