§ 1 General information and Data Controller
(1) In the following I inform you about the processing of personal data when using my web presence nx.vvlaw.de. Personal data are all data that can be related to you personally, e.g. name, address, email addresses, user behaviour.
(2) The controller pursuant to art. 4 point 7 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is Georg Varentsov, lawyer (law firm name: Anwaltskanzlei Varentsov), Bleichstraße 27, 66111 Saarbrücken, datenschutz@vvlaw.de.
(3) For the services provided on the web presence mentioned in subsection 1 sentence 1, personal data is collected which is used to provide the respective service and to which the data processing principles stated in this declaration apply.
(4) When you contact me (e.g. by e-mail), the data you provide (in particular your email address, your name and, if applicable, your telephone number) will be stored by me for the purpose of correspondence with you. I delete the data arising in this context after storage is no longer necessary or restrict processing if there are statutory retention periods.
(5) I also use external service providers to process your data. The service providers I commission are carefully selected and monitored by me and are bound by my instructions. If my service provider or partner is based in a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA), I will inform you of the consequences of this circumstance in this declaration.
§ 2 Your rights
(1) You have the following rights vis-à-vis me with regard to the personal data concerning you:
Right of access,
Right to rectification,
Right to erasure,
Right to restriction of processing,
Right to object to processing,
Right to data portability.
(2) You also have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority about the processing of your personal data by me.
(3) If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you can revoke this at any time. Such a revocation affects the permissibility of the processing of your personal data after you expressed it towards me.
(4) Insofar as I base the processing of your personal data on a weighing of interests, you can object to the processing. This is the case if, in particular, the processing is not necessary for the fulfilment of a contract with you, whereat the necessity is explained by me in the description of the functions in this declaration. When exercising such an objection, I ask you to explain the reasons why I should not process your personal data as I have done. In the event of your substantiated objection, I will examine the situation and will either discontinue or adapt the data processing or point out to you my compelling and legitimate reasons, on the basis of which I will continue the processing.
(5) You can object to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of advertising and data analysis at any time, if and insofar as this takes place. You can inform me about your objection in this regard at datenschutz@vvlaw.de.

The aforementioned data is processed temporarily for the duration necessary for the purposes mentioned in sentence 2 until its automated deletion.
(2) When using the cloud services provided on the web presence mentioned in § 1 subsection 1 sentence 1 (in particular download links, download and upload areas, collaborative document editing, video telephony, messenger chat), further personal data may be collected in addition to the aforementioned data, namely inventory and contact data (e.g. name, e-mail address), content data (e.g. documents uploaded by you, text entries during document editing or in chat messages) as well as communication and usage data (e.g. audio and video data streams during video telephony, time of access or file transfers). The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 point b GDPR (fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures) and Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 point f GDPR (my legitimate interest in a secure, efficient and fast communication with clients, other contractual partners, business partners, interested parties and other third parties within the scope of my legal practice). I process this data only to the extent and as long as it is necessary for the use of the provided cloud services. Longer processing or storage will only take place insofar as statutory retention and/or documentation obligations require this or if this is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
(3) In addition to the aforementioned data, website cookies may be stored on your computer when you use the web presence, without prejudice to subsection 5. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your hard drive – assigned to the browser you are using – and through which certain information flows to the party that sets the cookie (i.e. me as the website operator). Cookies cannot execute programs or transfer viruses to your computer. They serve to make the web presence more user-friendly and effective overall.
(4) Use of cookies:
Without prejudice to subsection 5, this website may use the following types of cookies, the scope and function of which are explained below: transient cookies (see next bullet point), persistent cookies (see next but one bullet point).
Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close the browser. These include session cookies in particular. These store a so-called session ID, with which various requests from your browser can be assigned to the joint session. This allows your computer to be recognised when you return to my website. The session cookies are deleted when the website visitor closes the browser.
Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie. You can delete cookies at any time in the security settings of your browser.
You can configure your browser settings according to your wishes and, for example, refuse to accept cookies or only third-party cookies.
(5) The web presence mentioned in § 1 subsection 1 sentence 1 exclusively uses technically necessary cookies. These serve to ensure the security and functionality of the web presence.
(6) For the provision and operation of the web presence mentioned in § 1 subsection 1 sentence 1, I use a cloud and IT service provider based in Germany, acting as my processor pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR. The use of this service provider is in the interest of a fast, secure and efficient provision of the web presence mentioned in § 1 subsection 1 by a professional provider (art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 point f GDPR) and for the purpose of contract fulfilment towards my existing or potential contractual partners (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 point b GDPR). The personal data collected on the web presence mentioned in § 1 subsection 1 is processed by the service provider mentioned in sentence 1. The servers used for this purpose are located in Germany.
