PROTECTION OF PRIVACY

Thank you for visiting our website. MAYLAND AG is committed to the protection and confidentiality of your data.

Hereafter we inform you about the processing of personal data in connection with our services, which we offer under www.mayland.de in the context of our activities.

Personal data are all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (Art. 4 No. 1 EU basic data protection regulation „GDPR“). This includes information such as your name, e-mail address, postal address or telephone number. Information that is not directly associated with your identity, such as the number of users of an online presence, does not fall under this definition.

1) Who is responsible for the processing of personal data?

The party responsible (hereinafter referred to as „MAYLAND“ or „we“) within the meaning of the Basic Data Protection Ordinance and other national data protection laws of the member states as well as other data protection regulations is:

2) Contact details of the data protection officer

You can contact our data protection officer at the above-mentioned contact details.

3) Purposes and legal bases of processing and duration of data storage

In the following we inform you about the different purposes for which we process personal data, on which legal basis such processing takes place and how long we store the data.

Insofar as we obtain the consent of the person concerned for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data. In the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract to which the person concerned is a party, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. Insofar as the processing of personal data is required to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis. If processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

We adhere to the principles of data avoidance and data minimization. We therefore only store your personal data for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes stated here or as provided for in the various storage periods provided for by law. After the respective purpose or expiry of these periods, the corresponding data will be blocked or deleted as a matter of routine and in accordance with legal regulations.

I. Data processing for general use of our Internet pages and within the scope of our activities as a consulting firm

1) General access to our website

No data and information of the accessing device is stored each time our website is accessed.

2) Transaction notifications

We use your e-mail address solely for the purpose of distributing transaction notifications. Further data will not be stored. Such data will not be passed on to third parties. We will keep your email address until you unsubscribe or until we stop sending you transaction notifications. You can object to all types of such transaction reports from MAYLAND at any time without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the basic tariffs (e.g. the costs of your internet provider).

3) Email contact

It is possible to contact us via the e-mail address provided on our website www.mayland.de In this case, the user’s personal data transmitted by e-mail and our reply will be stored. The personal data voluntarily transmitted to us in this context will be used to process your inquiry and to contact you. The legal basis for the transmission of data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. We use the data for this purpose until the conversation with you is finished. The conversation is terminated when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the facts in question have been finally clarified.

4) Data processing about entrepreneurs or employees of companies

Within the scope of our activities as a consulting firm for mergers & acquisitions, we operate a large number of different operations. We process personal data of entrepreneurs (data relating to entrepreneurs is only personal data if the entrepreneur is a natural person) or of employees of companies. The respective companies or entrepreneurs may have a contractual or pre-contractual relationship with us, but in individual cases we may also process data from companies and their employees if no such pre-contractual relationship exists. In the following sections we inform you about the purposes, the respective legal basis as well as the storage period of these processing by companies or company employees and the data categories, as far as we do not collect the personal data from the person concerned. The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the respective purpose, i.e. there is no longer a contract with the business partners or customers and we no longer intend to enter into a contract with the respective business partner or customer, there is no longer any legitimate interest and we are also no longer legally obliged to retain documents which may contain personal data.

5) Data processing for contract management and preparation purposes

We process personal data for the purpose of contract management, i.e. in order to provide our business partners or customers with the services covered by the contract and for the purpose of corresponding contract preparations. If the business partner or customer is a natural person, the legal basis is that the processing is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. If we process personal data of employees of the business partner or customer, the legal basis is a legitimate interest according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the execution of our business activities and those of the business partner or customer. There is no conflicting interest on the part of the person concerned in this respect, because from the perspective of our business partner or customer processing by us within the framework of the existing employment relationship with the person concerned is already necessary (§ 26 BDSG-neu). For this purpose we store personal data for the duration of the contract.

In addition, we store accounting documents for a period of ten years and business letters, i.e. any message relating to the preparation, execution or cancellation of a transaction, for a period of six years in order to fulfil our legal retention obligations.

6) Business and customer care

We process the personal data of our business partners or customers, interested parties or their employees, received in connection with our business activities, as contact persons within the framework of the initiation, conclusion and execution of a contract and also after the end of the contract or, if no contract is concluded, for the purpose of business and customer support and in order to be able to use or provide suitable services ourselves in the event of a new inquiry by the business partner as well as customers or interested parties, based on the previous contract conclusions, the offers or inquiries received. The legal basis is a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the implementation of our business activities. For this purpose we store personal data as long as we assume that the respective customer can conclude a further or first contract with us in the future, which is the case until the business partner or customer concerned declares to us that under no circumstances will he ever conclude a contract with us.

7) Data processing for general purposes

We process personal data of our business partners and/or customers as well as other entrepreneurs and companies not in a business relationship with us and, in this context, also of the contact persons there, if applicable, for the purpose of sending any invitations, insofar as legally permissible. The legal basis is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in the processing of personal data for this purpose itself (cf. recital 47 GDPR). The data subjects have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning them. You can raise this objection at any time under the contact data mentioned in paragraph 1. We store the data for this purpose as long as we are interested in concluding a contract with the company concerned or until an objection has been declared.
