We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our services. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for us. The use of our internet pages and websites by browsing is possible without any indication of personal data; however, if a data subject wants to use special services via our website, especially when using our „Booking" form and submitting your personal data in order to ask for our services, i.e. vinyl manufacturing the processing of personal data becomes necessary. If there is no statutory basis for the processing of personal data, we generally obtain consent from you, „the data subject“ for such processing.

The processing of personal data, such as name, address, email address and/or or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the GDPR, and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to Discosville. By means of this Privacy Policy, we would like to inform you of the nature, scope, extent, legal basis and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, we inform you by means of this Privacy Policy of the rights to which you are entitled in connection with data processing.

As the responsible controller we have implemented suitable technical and organizational measures to ensure the protection of your personal data processed through this website for the best of our knowledge and skills according to the latest state-of-the-art technologies. However, internet-based data transmissions may in principle have security gaps, so that absolute protection can not be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transfer personal data to us via alternative means, e.g. by telephone or post.

This Privacy Policy is based on the terms used by the EC legislator for the adoption of the GDPR. It is our goal that this Privacy Policy is legible and understandable for the general public, as well as for you, our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to first explain the terminology used here within.

In this Privacy Policy we use, inter alia, the following terms:

◦ a) Personal data
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

b) Data subject
Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person, whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.

d) Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.

e) Pseudonymisation
Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

f) Controller or controller responsible for the processing
Controller or controller responsible for the processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

g) Processor
Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

h) Recipient
Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients; the processing of that data by those public authorities shall be in compliance with the applicable data protection rules according to the purposes of the processing.

i) Third party
Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data.

j) Consent
Consent of the data subject is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

When using our websites, data is automatically transmitted to us by your Internet browser. We only collect the data that your browser transmits to our server (so-called "server log files"). Our website automatically collects a series of general data and information when a data subject or automated system calls up the website. Such data are:

1. the browser types and versions used,
2. the operating system used by the accessing system,
3. the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers),
4. the sub-websites,
5. the date and time of access to the Internet site,
6. an Internet protocol address (IP address),
7. the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and
8. any other similar data and information that may be used in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using these general data and information, we do not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is solely needed to

1. deliver the content of our website correctly,
2. optimize the content of our website as well as its advertisement,
3. ensure the long-term viability of our information technology systems and website technology, and
4. provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack.

Therefore, we only analyze collected data and information statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimum level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

On our website we are providing a booking form for your inquiries by which we ask you to provide and submit information about your music project, including personal data of you. Once we receive the data you have submitted through this booking form, we will store, use and process your personal data in order to get in contact with you and to send you information, such as a quote for the services you have requested via our booking form.

If your contact is aimed at concluding a contract with us about the audio-engineering services offered by us, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR.

If and to the extent we are entering into a contract with you after you have submitted information and data through our booking form, such data will be stored, used and processed according to the next paragraph 6 of this Privacy Policy.

For the performance and fulfillment of contracts governing our vinyl manufacturing services with you as well as for pre-contractual activities, it is necessary for us to process your personal data that have been processed and stored during the submittal of your personal data via our booking form or hereinafter in the course of communicating with you about our assignment.

On this website, the controller has integrated components of the enterprise Facebook. Facebook is a social network.

A social network is a place for social meetings on the Internet, an online community, which usually allows users to communicate with each other and interact in a virtual space. A social network may serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences, or enable the Internet community to provide personal or business-related information. Facebook allows social network users to include the creation of private profiles, upload photos, and network through friend requests.

The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, United States. If a person lives outside of the United States or Canada, the controller is Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet website, which is operated by the controller and into which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-ins) was integrated, the web browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted to download display of the corresponding Facebook component from Facebook through the Facebook component. An overview of all the Facebook Plug-ins may be accessed under hhttps://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins . During the course of this technical procedure, Facebook is made aware of what specific sub-site of our website was visited by the data subject.

If the data subject is logged in at the same time on Facebook, Facebook detects with every call-up to our website by the data subject—and for the entire duration of their stay on our Internet site—which specific subsite of our Internet page was visited by the data subject. This information is collected through the Facebook component and associated with the respective Facebook account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on one of the Facebook buttons integrated into our website, e.g. the “Like” button, or if the data subject submits a comment, then Facebook matches this information with the personal Facebook user account of the data subject and stores the personal data.

Facebook always receives, through the Facebook component, information about a visit to our website by the data subject, whenever the data subject is logged in at the same time on Facebook during the time of the call-up to our website. This occurs regardless of whether the data subject clicks on the Facebook component or not. If such a transmission of information to Facebook is not desirable for the data subject, then he or she may prevent this by logging off from their Facebook account before a call-up to our website is made.

The data protection guideline published by Facebook, which is available at https://facebook.com/about/privacy/, provides information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by Facebook. In addition, it is explained there what setting options Facebook offers to protect the privacy of the data subject. In addition, different configuration options are made available to allow the elimination of data transmission to Facebook. These applications may be used by the data subject to eliminate a data transmission to Facebook.

Besides Facebook you can also visit us on the following social media platforms:

Instagram
YouTube

On these platforms we inform users and customers about our services. For the processing of personal data on these platforms the terms of service and privacy policies of the company that is operating the respective platform apply. We do not have an influence on the processing of personal data on these platforms. If you use the platform to get in contact with us we will only use your personal data to communicate with you.

a) Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose.

b) If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the provision of our services, the processing is based on Article 6 (1) lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries concerning our services. Is our company subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR.

c) In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. d GDPR.

d) Finally, processing operations may be based on Article 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the above mentioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data.

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 (1) lit. f GDPR our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favor of the well-being of all our employees.

The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner).

Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded.

Before personal data is provided by the data subject, the data subject must contact us. If requested, we will clarify with you whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and the consequences of non-provision of the personal data.

We reserve our right to amend or change this Privacy Policy from time to time in order to comply with all legal obligations we are subject to. Please inform yourself on the latest version of this Privacy Policy which can be found on our website at any time.
