When you use this website, various types of personal data are collected. Personal data means information that can be used to identify you personally. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, what we use it for, and how and for what purposes it is processed.
Please note that transmitting data over the internet, for example when communicating by email, may involve security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties cannot be guaranteed.

The controller responsible for processing data on this website is:
André Scherwinski
Sollschwitz 66A
02997 Wittichenau
Germany
Phone: +49 173 6734526
Email: info@consulting-scherwinski.de
The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data, such as names and email addresses.
Withdrawal of Consent
Many data processing activities are possible only with your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent you have already given at any time. An informal email notifying us is sufficient.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
Right to Object to Processing in Certain Circumstances and to Direct Marketing — Article 21 GDPR
Where your personal data is processed on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to that processing at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation. This also applies to profiling based on those provisions.
The legal basis for each processing activity is set out in this Privacy Policy.
If you object, we will no longer process the personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. This is the right to object under Article 21(1) GDPR.
Where your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such purposes. This includes profiling insofar as it is related to direct marketing.
If you object, your personal data will no longer be processed for direct marketing purposes. This is the right to object under Article 21(2) GDPR.
Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority
In the event of a breach of the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.
This right is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in the performance of a contract, either yourself or through a third party, in a commonly used, machine-readable format.
If you request that the data be transferred directly to another controller, this will be carried out only where technically feasible.
SSL or TLS Encryption
This website uses SSL or TLS encryption for security purposes and to protect the transmission of confidential information, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the website operator.
You can recognise an encrypted connection by the change from “http://” to “https://” in your browser’s address bar and by the padlock symbol in your browser.
When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties during transmission.
Access, Erasure and Rectification
Within the scope of applicable legislation, you have the right to obtain information about your stored personal data, its source and recipients, and the purpose of processing at any time, free of charge. Where applicable, you also have the right to request rectification or erasure of that data.
For these purposes, or for any other questions concerning personal data, you can contact us at the address provided in the Legal Notice.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at the address provided in the Legal Notice to exercise this right.
The right to restriction of processing applies in the following circumstances:
If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally need time to verify its accuracy. You have the right to request restriction of processing while this verification is carried out.
If your personal data has been or is being processed unlawfully, you may request restriction of processing instead of erasure.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, you may request restriction of processing instead of erasure.
If you have objected to processing under Article 21(1) GDPR, your interests must be weighed against ours. Until it has been established whose interests override the other’s, you have the right to request restriction of processing.
Where processing has been restricted, your personal data may, apart from being stored, be processed only with your consent, for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

We hereby object to the use of contact details published to comply with legal notice requirements for sending advertising or information that has not been expressly requested.
