Data protection information on provision of the website

Scope of the processing

In principle, we only process our users’ personal data when it is necessary to do so in order to provide a functioning website and for the content and services we offer. Personal data is only processed on the basis of currently applicable legal foundations.

Purposes of the processing

The purposes of the processing of personal data lie in conducting the business of Osino Car Hire CC.

Legal basis for the processing

The legal basis for processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party is Article 6 (1)(b) GDPR. This also applies for processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

If the processing is necessary for the protection of the legitimate interests of our company or a third party and such interests are not overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, Article 6 (1)(f) GDPR forms the legal basis for the processing.
When we obtain consent for processing operations for personal data from the data subject, Article 6 (1)(a) GDPR forms the legal basis.
When the processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6 (1)(c) GDPR forms the legal basis.
In the event that the processing of personal data is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person, Article 6 (1)(d) GDPR forms the legal basis.

Statutory or contractual duties to provide personal data

There may be statutory or contractual requirements for you to provide personal data under certain circumstances, or it may be necessary to do so in order to enter into a contract.

In particular, you may be obliged to provide personal data to us when entering into contracts. Failure to provide the personal data could mean it is not possible to enter into the contract with you.

Transfer of personal data

We only share your personal data with third parties when

it is necessary for the performance of an existing contract with you.
it is necessary for the protection of our legitimate interests or those of a third party, unless such interests are overridden by your (the data subject’s) interests or fundamental rights and freedoms requiring the protection of personal data.
we are legally required to do so.
it is necessary for the enforcement of our claims and rights.
we receive requests from official institutions (e.g. supervisory authorities or law enforcement authorities, when transfer is necessary for the prevention of threats to public security and order and the prosecution of criminal offences).

However, in the case of such transfer, the personal data may only be used for the purpose concerned.

Data erasure and storage period

Personal data will be erased or made unavailable as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. Storage can also be carried out if this is provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws or other rules to which the controller is subject. Data will only be made unavailable or erased if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards lapses, unless continued storage of the data is necessary.

In principle, you can visit our website without registering or logging in. When you visit our website, data is collected by the web server for the transfer of data (information on the system of the computer used).

Use of third-party providers’ add-ons

Like many other companies, we use add-ons from third-party providers (social media, analytics tools, marketing tools, etc.). They enable personal data (e.g. IP numbers, information from pseudonymised cookies, geodata, etc.) to be passed on or automatically transferred to the third-party providers. The nature, scope, purpose and duration of such processing of personal data can differ from case to case.
