3. General Information and Mandatory Information on Data Protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the legal data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what 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 over the Internet (e.g., when communicating by email) may have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Responsible Party Notice

The responsible party for data processing on this website is:
Narta Dalladaku, c/o Factory Works GmbH, Rheinsberger Str. 76/77, 10115 Berlin
Phone: +491758678293
Email: contact@nartadalladaku.com

The responsible party is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).

Storage Period

Unless a specific storage period is specified within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial retention periods); in the latter case, the data will be deleted once these reasons no longer apply.

General Information on Data Processing Legal Basis on this Website

If you have given your consent to data processing, we will process your personal data based on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25 TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time. If the processing of your personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. In cases where we are subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data, such as compliance with tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our premises were injured and their name, age, health insurance data or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. We are allowed to carry out such processing operations because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the data controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

Information on Data Transfer to the USA and Other Non-European Countries

Among other things, we use tools of companies domiciled in the USA or other from a data protection perspective non-secure non-European countries. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these non-European countries and may be processed there. We must point out that in these countries, a data protection level that is comparable to that in Europe cannot be guaranteed. For example, U.S. enterprises are under a mandate to release personal data to the security agencies and you as the data subject do not have any litigation options to defend yourself in court. Hence, it cannot be ruled out that U.S. agencies (e.g., the Secret Service) may process, analyze, and permanently archive your personal data for surveillance purposes. We have no control over these processing activities.

Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and Direct Advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)

If the data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation, including profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims (objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct advertising, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such advertising, including profiling, to the extent that it is related to such direct advertising. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for the purpose of direct advertising (objection under Art. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to File Complaints with Regulatory Authorities

If there has been a breach of data protection legislation, the person affected may file a complaint with the competent regulatory authorities. The competent regulatory authority for matters related to data protection legislation is the data protection officer of the German federal state in which our company is headquartered. A list of data protection officers and their contact details can be found at the following link: [Link to Data Protection Officers].

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data which we process based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract automatically delivered to yourself or to a third party in a standard, machine-readable format. If you require the direct transfer of data to another responsible party, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.

SSL or TLS Encryption

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and for the protection of the transmission of confidential content, such as the inquiries you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection in your browser's address line when it changes from "http://" to "https://" and the lock icon is displayed in your browser's address bar.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transfer to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information, Deletion, and Correction

Within the scope of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to at any time demand information about your stored personal data, their source and recipients and the purpose of the processing of your data and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data. For this purpose, as well as for further questions about personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the audit, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If the processing of your personal data happened/is happening unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.

If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it for the exercise, defense, or assertion of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.

If you have filed an objection in accordance with Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data - apart from their storage - may only be processed with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising, or defending legal claims or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

Objection to Advertising Emails

We hereby object to the use of contact data published in the context of the imprint obligation for sending unsolicited advertising and information material. The operators of this website expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising information, such as spam emails.
