Section 8: Data Protection
The controller regarding the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is identical with the promoter of this Prize Draw.
Personal data (participant data) will be processed within the scope of the prize draw for the following purposes:
- Implementation of the prize draw
- Notification of winners
- Prize presentation
Legal basis for the processing of personal data for the aforementioned purposes is the contract concluded between the promoter and the participant in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.
Without the processing of participant data, it is not possible to ensure the aforementioned purposes and the participation in the prize draw. In general, participant data will not be disclosed to third parties, unless the promoter uses third parties for the aforementioned purposes.
Participant data will be deleted after the prize draw is finished, unless a retention period requires a longer storage (e.g. retention periods for winners under tax or commercial law usually is ten years). In the last case, participant data will be deleted after the retention period is expired.

- The right of access without charge to the stored personal data pertaining to the individual as well as rectification, blocking or erasure of this data.
- The right to data portability. To the extent that the controller processes the personal data using an automated procedure on the basis of consent or for the fulfilment of a contract, the data subject may request to obtain the personal data in a commonly used, machine-readable format. Insofar as the data subject requests that the data should be transferred directly to another controller, this shall happen only if technically feasible.
- The right to withdraw consent granted.

The lawfulness of data processing activities up to the time of withdrawal shall remain unaffected by the withdrawal.
- The right to object to data processing. The controller will no longer process the data subject's personal data unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject or where processing serves to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
- The right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. Insofar as the data subject considers that the processing of its personal data by the controller is a violation of GDPR, the data subject in question may lodge a respective complaint with any data protection supervisory authority.
By submitting the registration form, the participant consents to participation in the prize draw. The personal data will be processed solely for this purpose and not for any other use.
