Data protection

Data protection protects the individuals behind the data that is stored or processed in companies. The task of data protection and also the primary goal of Dana GmbH is to handle personal data in such a way that no one's personal rights are impaired.
The European Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) and also the new Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) impose a whole range of obligations here on the bodies responsible for personal data processing.
Personal data may only be collected and processed if this is expressly permitted by the DSGVO. 

Key basic principles of the GDPR are:

  • Lawfulness of processing, fair processing, transparency.
  • Purpose limitation
  • Data minimization
  • Accuracy of data processing
  • Storage limitation and deletion concepts

Integrity and confidentiality

Acting responsibly when handling personal data, as well as the risk-conscious use of IT systems and applications, are further central objectives of Dana GmbH.
When you use this website, various personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains which data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.

We would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Purpose of data collection, processing or use

Personal data is collected, processed or used to fulfill the company's purpose or supporting secondary purposes, such as advising customers.
The company thus collects, processes and uses personal data exclusively for the preparation and fulfillment of contracts, out of legitimate interest, to comply with legal obligations or with the consent of the person concerned.

Processing of personal data is only lawful if permitted by law, i.e. if there is a legal basis. In the DSGVO as well as in the BDSG, however, further possibilities are defined. Processing of personal data in our company only takes place in accordance with the legal provisions. These are, among others, if there is consent to the processing of personal data (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO), or if personal data must be processed in order to fulfill a contract or initiate a contract (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO), or if we are subject to the responsibility to process personal data for the fulfillment of a legal obligation Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO)., or if we process personal data on the basis of a legitimate interest or on the basis of a legitimate interest of a third party (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO).
When weighing the interests of the data subject and the contracting parties, a strict standard is always applied in favor of the data subject.

Potential recipients in the event of data transfer

The potential recipients of transferred personal data are
public bodies, if a legal obligation exists, service providers and other business partners insofar as it is necessary to fulfill the respective purpose and a legal provision permits or requires this or the data subject has consented.

Standard periods for the deletion of data
