"processing" means any operation carried out, with or without the aid of automated procedures, or any such series of operations relating to personal data, such as the collection, collection, organisation, arrangement, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or any other form of provision, comparison or linking, restriction, erasure or destruction.

3. restriction of processing

"Restriction on processing" means the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting their future processing.

4. profiling

"Profiling" means any automated processing of personal data consisting in the use of such personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects relating to the work performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or relocation of that natural person.

5. pseudonymization

"Pseudonymisation" means the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that this additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures which ensure that the personal data cannot be attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

16. Green-Zones App

We operate various websites related to the topic of environmental stickers for vehicles (hereinafter referred to as the "website"), which are operated in conjunction with the Green Zones app. To install the app, you may need to sign a usage agreement with a third party (for example, iOS App Store, Google Play Store) to access a portal or online store of that third party.

EES European Eco Service GmbH is not party to such an agreement and has no influence on the data processing by the third party provider. You can find out which data and how they are processed during registration with the online shop in the data protection declaration of the third party provider. The download from the online shop is purely voluntary. The app itself is free in its basic function, but we would like to point out that connection costs may apply. Some functions are reserved only for customers or business partners of EES European Eco Service GmbH. To be able to use these functions, identification is necessary.

Some services of the app require a network connection. The app retrieves this status. This is not saved.

The app uses push services from the operating system manufacturers. These are short messages which are shown on the display with your consent and with which you are actively informed about news from EES European Eco Service GmbH. When using the push services, a device token from Apple or a registration ID from Google will be assigned. The sole purpose of their use by us is the provision of push services. These are only encrypted, anonymized device IDs. A conclusion on your data is impossible. If you do not want this functionality of the app, you can adjust it accordingly via your device settings. To unsubscribe from push messages, you can use the unsubscribe option in the app under Settings/Notifications. There the user can switch push messages on and off. Furthermore, the receiving of push messages can also be switched off via the operating system.

If you fill in a form within the app, the form data may be saved within the app and forwarded to us.

Anonymous cookies are used for session persistence. These expire after using the app and do not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your identity.

When using the app, the user's location is determined using the sensors of the terminal device (e.g. via GPS, mobile phone masts or WLAN).

Personal data will only be processed within the scope of the use of the app in order to be able to offer you the use of the app and its services.

The basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO, which permits the processing of data for the fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

You have the right to request us to correct any inaccurate personal data concerning you without delay. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, you have the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data - also by means of a supplementary declaration.

5. right to cancellation ("right to be forgotten")

You have the right to request the data controller to delete personal data relating to you immediately and we are obliged to delete personal data immediately if one of the following reasons applies:

a. The personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.

b. The data subject withdraws his/her consent on which processing was based in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) DSBER and there is no other legal basis for processing.

The right to cancellation ("right to be forgotten") does not exist if the processing is necessary:

a. the exercise of freedom of expression and information;

b. for the performance of a legal obligation required for processing under the law of the Union or of the Member States to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority conferred on the controller;

Where processing has been restricted in accordance with the conditions set out above, such personal data shall only be processed - apart from being stored - with the consent of the data subject or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending rights or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person or on grounds of an important public interest of the Union or a Member State.

In order to exercise the right to restrict processing, the data subject may contact us at any time using the contact details provided above.

7. right to data transferability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, current and machine-readable format, and you have the right to transmit this data to another responsible person without interference by the responsible person to whom the personal data was provided, provided that:

a. processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) DSGVO; and

b. processing is carried out using automated methods.

When exercising the right to data transferability under paragraph 1, you have the right to have the personal data transferred directly from one data controller to another data controller, where this is technically feasible. The exercise of the right to data transferability does not affect the right to deletion ("right to be forgotten").

If personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is associated with such direct marketing. If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.

In connection with the use of Information Society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right of opposition by means of automated procedures using technical specifications.

You have the right to object to the processing of personal data concerning you, for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1), for reasons arising from your particular situation, unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest.

You can exercise your right of objection at any time by contacting the person responsible.

9. automated decisions in individual cases including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based exclusively on automated processing - including profiling - that has legal effect against you or significantly impairs you in a similar manner. This does not apply if the decision:

a. is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the data controller,

b. is admissible by law of the Union or of the Member States to which the data controller is subject and that law contains appropriate measures to safeguard the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject; or

c. with the express consent of the data subject.

The data controller shall take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person by the data controller, to state his own position and to challenge the decision.
