complain to a supervisory authority in accordance with Art. 77 DSGVO. As a rule, you can contact the supervisory authority of your usual place of residence or workplace or our company headquarters for this purpose.
Information about your right to object according to Art. 21 DSGVO.
You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data relating to you which is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) of the DSGVO (data processing on the basis of a balance of interests); this also applies to Article 4(4) DSGVO profiling based on this provision.
If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.
If your objection is directed against processing of data for the purpose of direct marketing, we will immediately stop the processing. In this case, it is not necessary to specify a particular situation. This also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct advertising.
If you wish to exercise your right to object, an e-mail to legal@vivantbiotechnology.com will suffice.
18.Profiling
We may use your data to try to find out more about you so that we may be better able to predict which products and services you may be interested in.
On some of our e-commerce websites, we commission service providers who use automated decision-making processes to check your address and creditworthiness. This enables us to ensure that we are using correct address information and to assess the risk of non-payment for our products and services.
19.Data Security
We use physical, technical and administrative measures to protect your personal data stored by us against unauthorized access, collection, use, publication, reproduction, modification or deletion. All data that you provide to us is stored on secure servers.
If you have a password to access our website or app, you are responsible for keeping the password safe and keeping it confidential.
All data transmitted by you personally will be encrypted using the generally accepted and secure standard TLS (Transport Layer Security). TLS is a secure and proven standard that is also used, for example, in online banking. You can recognize a secure TLS connection, among other things, by the appended s at the http (i.e. https://..) in the address bar of your browser or by the lock symbol in the lower area of your browser.
We also use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or against unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
20.Third Countries
Due to the fact that the Internet offers a global environment, the collection and processing of personal data via the Internet inevitably includes the international transfer of data. Although we usually store personal data that we collect about you through our website in your region (for example in the European Economic Area in the case of visitors from Europe), your personal data may also be passed on to parties outside your region (where other data protection laws apply, e.g. in the USA), among others to affiliated companies of Vivant Biotechnology GmbH .
If this is done, we have implemented protective measures and data protection solutions to ensure that your data is adequately protected in third countries, e.g. by using standard contractual clauses or, if necessary, invoking the Privacy Shield. If you would like more information on this, please contact us at the email address given in sections below.
