Your rights as a data subject

First, we would like to inform you here about your rights as a data subject. These rights are standardized in Art. 15 - 22 EU-DS-GVO. This includes:

• the right to information (Art. 15 EU-DS-GVO),
• the right to erasure (Art. 17 EU GDPR),
• the right to rectification (Art. 16 EU GDPR),
• the right to data portability (Art. 20 EU GDPR),
• the right to restriction of data processing (Art. 18 EU GDPR),
• the right to object to data processing (Art. 21 EU GDPR).

To assert these rights, please contact: datenschutz@bayern-innovativ.de.

The same applies if you have questions about data processing in our company. You also have a right of appeal to a data protection supervisory authority.

Rights of objection

Please note the following in connection with rights of objection:

If we process your personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object to this data processing at any time without giving reasons. This also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to direct advertising.

If you object to processing for direct advertising purposes, we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes. The objection is free of charge and can be made form-free, if possible to: datenbank@bayern-innovativ.de.

In the event that we process your data for the purpose of safeguarding legitimate interests, you may object to this processing on grounds relating to your particular situation at any time; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

We will then no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

Purposes and legal bases for data processing

When processing your personal data, the provisions of the EU-DS-GVO and all other applicable data protection regulations are observed. Legal bases for data processing arise in particular from Art. 6 EU-DS-GVO. We use your data to initiate business, to fulfill contractual and legal obligations, to implement the contractual relationship, to offer products and services and to strengthen the customer relationship, which may also include analyses for marketing purposes and direct advertising.

The range of services offered by Bayern Innovativ GmbH includes:

• the implementation of events (congresses/forums, workshops, network/cluster meetings, partnering, matchmaking events)
• the initiation and support of cooperations (including network design, competence presentation, commissioned projects, working groups, partnering, consortia formation)
• the support of market access via trade fair joint stands, market intelligence, key contacts
• the approach to funding
• the transfer of knowledge about trend reports, technology and market studies, technical reports.

Your consent also represents a permission provision under data protection law. Here we clarify the purposes of data processing and your right of withdrawal. If the consent also refers to the processing of special categories of personal data, we will explicitly point this out to you in the consent.

A processing of special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) EU-DS-GVO will only be carried out if this is required by legal regulations and there is no reason to assume that your legitimate interest in the exclusion of the processing outweighs.

Transfer to third parties

We will only pass on your data to third parties within the framework of legal regulations or with appropriate consent. Otherwise, we will not disclose your data to third parties unless we are required to do so by mandatory legal provisions (disclosure to external bodies such as supervisory authorities or law enforcement agencies).

Receivers of data / categories of recipients

Within our company, we ensure that only those persons receive your data who need them to fulfill contractual and legal obligations. In many cases, service providers support our specialist departments in the performance of their tasks. The necessary contractual framework under data protection law has been concluded with all service providers. This includes shipping service providers for the dispatch of advertising materials, the payment service paypal, agencies for the creation of advertising and information materials, service providers for Internet hosting, and software providers.

Third country transfer / third country transfer intention

We do not transfer your personal data to any service provider outside the European Economic Area.

Storage period of data

We store your data as long as they are needed for the respective processing purpose. Please note that numerous retention periods require that data continue to be stored (must). This applies in particular to retention obligations under commercial or tax law (e.g. Commercial Code, Fiscal Code, etc.). If there are no further retention obligations, the data will be routinely deleted after the purpose has been achieved.

In addition, we may retain data if you have given us your permission to do so or if legal disputes arise and we use evidence within the framework of statutory limitation periods, which can be up to thirty years; the regular limitation period is three years.

Secure transmission of your data

To best protect the data we store against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized persons, we use appropriate technical and organizational security measures. The security levels are continuously reviewed in cooperation with security experts and adapted to new security standards.

The data exchange from and to our website is always encrypted. As a transmission protocol, we offer HTTPS for our website, in each case using the current encryption protocols. In addition, there is the possibility of using alternative communication channels (e.g. the postal service).

Contact form / contacting us by e-mail (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, b EU-DS-GVO)

On our website, there is a contact form that can be used for electronic contact. If you write to us via the contact form, we process the data you provide in the contact form to contact you and answer your questions and requests.

Hereby, the principle of data economy and data avoidance is observed by only requiring you to provide the data that we absolutely need to contact you. These are your e-mail address and the message field itself. In addition, your IP address is processed for technical necessity as well as for legal protection. All other data are voluntary fields and can be provided optionally (e.g. to answer their questions more individually).

If you contact us by e-mail, we will process the personal data provided in the e-mail solely for the purpose of processing your request. If you do not use the forms offered to contact us, no further data collection will take place.

Newsletter (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU-DS-GVO)

On our website you can subscribe to a free newsletter. The e-mail address provided during newsletter registration and your name, if provided, will be used for sending the personalized newsletter.

The principle of data economy and data avoidance is observed, as only the fields name, company and e-mail address are marked as mandatory fields. For technical necessity as well as for legal protection, your IP address is also processed when ordering the newsletter. In addition, our newsletter tracking records user behavior for statistical evaluation. If you have consented, we evaluate your clicks in newsletters using so-called tracking pixels, i.e. invisible image files. These are assigned to your e-mail address and are linked to a separate ID in order to clearly assign clicks in the newsletter to you. The usage profile is intended to tailor the newsletter offer to your interests. We record when you read newsletters and which links you click on, and infer an interest profile from this.

You can, of course, unsubscribe at any time using the unsubscribe option provided in the newsletter and thus revoke your consent.

The personal data you provide when subscribing will be stored in the Salesforce Sales Cloud. In addition, your personal data will also be transferred to the Salesforce Marketing Cloud in order to carry out personalized advertising measures by means of e-mail. The processing will take place until you revoke your consent. The data will be used exclusively by us.

Chat (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU-DS-GVO)

On our website there is the possibility to contact us via a chat form.

Hereby the principle of data economy and data avoidance is observed, in that you only have to provide the data that we absolutely need for an exchange of conversation with you. This includes your name, company and e-mail address. In addition, due to technical necessity as well as for legal protection, your IP address as well as the Bayern Innovativ entry URL, Bayern Innovativ chat URL, chat history, browser information, the operating system used and the number of visits are processed.

To best protect the security and confidentiality of your data, we implement appropriate security measures. Your request is transmitted to us in encrypted form.

We process the data you provide in the context of the order form for our Innovation Magazine only for the purpose of carrying out or processing the shipment.

Of course, you can also provide more data of your own accord if you wish to do so.

Pardot Marketing Automation System ("Pardot MAS")

We use the Pardot Marketing Automation System ("Pardot MAS"), a special software for recording and evaluating the use of a website by website visitors and for sending newsletters. When you visit our content on www.go.bayern-innovativ.de, Pardot MAS records your click path and uses it to create an individual usage profile using a pseudonym. For this purpose, cookies are used that allow your browser to be recognized. However, you can deactivate the creation of pseudonymized usage profiles at any time by configuring your Internet browser so that cookies from the domain "pardot.com" are not accepted. However, this may lead to certain restrictions in the functions and user-friendliness of our offer. In order to provide you with information that is as interest-oriented and relevant as possible, it is possible to merge your personal data with the data of a pseudonymized user profile via the cookies set, provided that you - for example, by ordering a newsletter or filling out a form - provide personal data and consent to this processing. For this purpose, our newsletters sent with Pardot MAS contain so-called web beacons. These are tiny graphics that allow us to track user behavior, such as opening and reading emails and clicking on links. You may object to this use of your personal data at any time by writing or emailing datenbank@bayern-innovativ.de. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future - an unsubscribe link is also available in each of our newsletters for this purpose.

Microsoft Bookings

In the context of appointments with the Bavarian Project Management Agency, the Microsoft Bookings service (service of Microsoft Office 365) of the provider Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited, One Microsoft Place, South County Business Park, Leopardstown, Dublin 18 D18 P521 (hereinafter: "Microsoft") is used for online appointment scheduling. Through this software, an electronic calendar software, you can book an appointment with our staff. We offer this service both if you are already a customer and if you are interested in our services without already having a contractual relationship with us (contract initiation).

A connection to Microsoft Bookings is only established if you receive a link through an email and call up the appointment booking function. For the appointment booking, your entries in the appointment booking form are transferred to Microsoft. Further information on how Microsoft handles your data can be found at https://privacy.microsoft.com/... or under the security notes for Microsoft cloud services at https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/trustcenter.Die. The legal basis for the processing of your data in relation to Microsoft Bookings is Art. 6 I 1 b DSGVO (data processing in connection with the initiation or performance of a contract).

In order to make an appointment reservation, it is necessary for you to provide your name, as well as an e-mail address at which we can contact you. In addition, a funding code may be requested in order to be able to guarantee an assignment. Furthermore, you can voluntarily provide additional information. Please note that we cannot offer you an appointment if you do not provide the mandatory information or do not provide it completely. However, you are not obligated to use Microsoft Bookings to make an appointment. If you do not wish to use the service, we will be happy to assist you around your request via the aforementioned alternative contact channels.

Your data with regard to the use of the appointment booking option via Microsoft Bookings will not be transferred by us to third countries outside the EU or the European Economic Area. To the best of our knowledge, which is based on the information available from Microsoft, the data is also not transferred by Microsoft to third countries. We have concluded the necessary data protection agreements with Microsoft.

Your data will not be processed by us for longer than is necessary in relation to the triggered appointment request/reservation. Please take into account that, if applicable, supplementary storage/deletion periods may apply, insofar as we are subject to such.

CovPassCheck App (checking "G status")

For the purpose of checking vaccination status, convalescent status or test status in connection with Covid-19, we use the CovPassCheck App of the Robert Koch Institute (RKI, Nordufer 20, 13353 Berlin, Germany). To the extent required by law, the app is used to check the so-called "G status" at events and admission controls. Depending on the applicable regulations, vaccination status, convalescent status and/or test status may be processed. The legal basis for the data processing of the "G status" is Art. 9 para. 2 lit. g EU-DS-GVO in conjunction with § 3 para. 2, 1 p. 2 BayIfSMV.

In addition, the personal details (first name(s), surname(s) and date of birth) are also displayed as part of the check for the purpose of random identity checks. In this way, the identity is ensured by means of matching the identification documents. The legal basis for this processing and the random control of identity documents is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. c EU-DS-GVO in conjunction with § 3 para. 2, 1 p. 2 BayIfSMV.

We are legally obliged to process the data.

The data are stored by means of QR code (CBOR WebToken) on the terminal device of the persons to be checked and are not stored by us in the CovPassCheck app, but only displayed via a status message (green or red) and display of personal data, as well as validity period (Corona test). The verification, i.e. the comparison of the digital signature, is carried out via systems of UBIRCH and without data with personal reference.

Further information stored in the certificate or QR code, such as information about the vaccine, the vaccine dose, pathogen, manufacturer, etc., is not displayed in the CovPassCheck App.

The CovPass Check App is an open source project, where the code can be viewed via GitHUb. For more information on the privacy counterparts related to the CovPassCheck App, please visit: https://www.digitaler-impfnachweis-app.de/webviews/verification-app/privacy/

Cookies (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f EU-DS-GVO, Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. c EU-DS-GVO, Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit a EU-DS-GVO)

Our website uses so-called cookies in several places. They serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser (locally on your hard drive). Based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f EU-DS-GVO), we use technically necessary cookies that are required for the operation of the website and to ensure its functionality. Depending on the purpose, these are stored permanently - even after the session has ended - (so-called persistent cookies, e.g. opt-out) or are deleted when the browser is terminated (so-called session cookies - these are only valid for one browser session).

In addition, we also set other cookies with your consent. By means of these cookies, we are able to analyze how users use our websites. This allows us to design the website content according to visitor needs. In addition, the cookies enable us to measure the effectiveness of a particular advertisement and to have it placed, for example, depending on the thematic interests of users. The legal basis for this is your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a EU-DS-GVO).

If you have given your consent here, you can of course revoke it at any time without giving reasons via the cookie banner ("Cookie Settings").

Cloudfront (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f EU-DS-GVO)

This website uses the content delivery network (CDN) Cloudfront. This is a service of Amazon Web Services Inc, 410 Terry Avenue North, Seattle, WA 98109-5210. The Cloudfront CDN provides duplicates of data of a website on different Amazon Web Services (AWS) servers distributed worldwide. This provides faster website load times, increased resiliency, and increased protection against data loss. Some of the images and videos embedded on this website are retrieved from Cloudfront CDN when the page is accessed. Through this retrieval, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to Amazon's servers in other EU countries and stored there. This happens as soon as you enter our website. The use of Amazon Web Services and the Amazon CDN Cloudfront is done in the interest of a higher reliability of the website, increased protection against data loss and a better loading speed of this website. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f EU-DSGVO. You can learn more about Amazon Web Services' privacy measures at: https://aws.amazon.com/de/data... current privacy policy of Amazon Web Services can be found at: https://aws.amazon.com/de/priv... service may transfer the collected data to another country. Please note that this service may transfer data outside the European Union and the European Economic Area and to a country that does not provide an adequate level of data protection. If the data is transferred to the U.S., there is a risk that your data may be processed by U.S. authorities for control and monitoring purposes, without any possible legal remedy available to you. However, we take the possible measures necessary under data protection law in accordance with Art. 44 et seq. EU-DS-GVO to establish the level of data protection in the third country.

Creation of user profiles or use of cookies that are not purely functional (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU-DS-GVO)

Matomo (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU-DS-GVO)

On our website, provided that you have given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU-DS-GVO), we use the service "Matomo" (formerly "Piwik"), an open source web analytics service provided by InnoCraft Ltd, 150 Willis St, 6011 Wellington, New Zealand. Matomo stores cookies on your terminal device that enable an analysis of your use of our website. The use of Matomo enables us to analyze the use of our website, as well as individual functions and offers, and thus to continuously improve the user experience. For data protection reasons, all data collected in this process is stored locally only:

• two bytes of the IP address of the calling system of the user
• the called website
• the website from which the user has reached the called website (referrer)
• the subpages, which are called from the called website
• the time spent on the website
• the frequency of calling the website

We use Matomo with the setting "Anonymize Visitors' IP addresses". This means that IP addresses are further processed in an abbreviated form, thus excluding any direct reference to individuals. The software is set so that the IP addresses are not stored in full, but 2 bytes of the IP address are masked. In this way, an assignment of the shortened IP address to the calling computer is no longer possible. The IP address transmitted by your browser by means of Matomo is not merged with other data collected by us.

You can revoke your consent to the use of Matomo at any time in our cookie settings.

Podigee (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f EU-DS-GVO)

We use the podcast hosting service Podigee of the provider Podigee GmbH, Schlesische Straße 20, 10997 Berlin, Germany. The podcasts are thereby loaded by Podigee or transmitted via Podigee.

The use is based on our legitimate interests, i.e. interest in a safe and efficient provision, analysis as well as optimization of our podcast offer according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO.

Podigee processes IP addresses and device information to enable podcast downloads/playbacks and to determine statistical data, such as call-up figures. This data is anonymized or pseudonymized before being stored in Podigee's database, unless you are required to provide the podcasts.

All Podigee content is disabled by default. A direct connection to the Podigee servers is only established if you consent to the use of Podigee within the cookie settings or activate it independently with a click.

Further information and opt-out options can be found in Podigee's privacy policy: https://www.podigee.com/de/about/privacy/.

Google Maps (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU-DS-GVO)

On our website we use Google Maps (API) from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google"). To ensure data protection, Google Maps is disabled when you first enter this website. A direct connection to Google's servers is only established when you independently activate Google Maps (consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO). You can revoke your consent at any time in the cookie banner (fingerprint icon). This prevents your data from being transferred to Google the first time you enter the site. After activation, Google Maps will store your IP address. This is then usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

A third-country transfer takes place in the process, so that in this case there is a risk that your data may be processed by US authorities for control and monitoring purposes, without you possibly having any legal remedies. However, we take the possible measures necessary under data protection law in accordance with Art. 44 et seq. EU-DS-GVO to establish the level of data protection in the third country.

All Google Maps content is disabled by default. A direct connection to Google servers is only established if you consent to the use of Google Maps in the cookie settings or activate it yourself with a click.

Supplementary information on the handling of user data can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.de/intl/en/policies/privacy/.

YouTube (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU-DS-GVO)

We use on our pages the video portal YouTube, which is operated by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter "YouTube").

All YouTube content is disabled by default. A direct connection to the YouTube servers is only established if you consent to the use of YouTube in the cookie settings or activate videos independently with a click.

The legal basis for the processing of your data is then your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a EU-DS-GVO, which you can revoke at any time by changing the cookie settings with effect for the future. Please note, however, that it will then no longer be possible for you to use the video portal and associated actions, such as participation in an event via livestream.

Please note that in doing so, your IP address and browser data will be transmitted to YouTube and, cookies may be set in your browser. These are then usually transferred to a server in the USA and stored there.

For you, there is the possibility to give your consent for the retrieval of individual videos at any time again.

Please note that a data transfer to a third country outside the EU / EEA can not be excluded, which may have a lower level of data protection than that of the EU. For more information on the processing of your data by YouTube and your rights and settings options to protect your privacy, please visit https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.

Vimeo (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU-DS-GVO)

In addition to YouTube, we have also integrated videos from the Vimeo platform in certain areas of our website. Here, too, a data transmission to the Vimeo server takes place. These processing operations take place on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU-DS-GVO). You can revoke this consent at any time in the cookie settings.

Please note that your IP address is transmitted to Vimeo (Vimeo, LLC555 West 18th Street New York, NY 10011 United States) and that the provider sets cookies in your browser. This is a transfer of data to an insecure third country, so in this case there is a risk that your data may be processed by US authorities for control and monitoring purposes, without you possibly having any legal remedies. However, we take the possible and necessary measures under data protection law in accordance with Art. 44 et seq. EU-DS-GVO to establish the level of data protection in the third country.

All Vimeo content is disabled by default. A direct connection to the Vimeo servers is only established if you consent to the use of Vimeo in the cookie settings or activate it independently with a click.

Social media links

On our website you will find links to the social media services of Facebook, Twitter, Linked In, Xing. You can recognize links to the websites of the social media services by the respective company logo. If you follow these links, you will reach Bayern Innovativ's corporate presence on the respective social media service.

These are, for example:

• Address of the website on which the activated link is located
• Date and time of the call of the website or. of the activation of the link

You use these platforms and their functions, however, on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of interactive functions (e.g. commenting, sharing, rating).

We further point out that in the process your data may be processed outside the area of the European Union. The necessary contract under data protection law will be concluded.

Purpose and legal basis

We ourselves maintain the fan pages to communicate with visitors to these pages and to inform them about our offers in this way.

In addition, we collect data for statistical purposes in order to be able to further develop and optimize the content and to make our offer more attractive. The data required for this purpose (e.g. total number of page views, page activity and data provided by visitors, interactions) are processed and made available on the part of the social networks. We have no influence on the generation and presentation.

In addition, your personal data will be processed by the providers of the social media, but also by Bayern Innovativ GmbH, for market research and advertising purposes. It is possible, for example, that usage profiles are created based on your usage behavior and the resulting interests. This allows, among other things, advertisements to be placed within and outside the platforms that presumably correspond to your interests. Cookies are usually stored on your computer for this purpose. Independently of this, data that is not collected directly from your end devices may also be stored in your usage profiles. The storage and analysis also takes place across devices, this applies in particular, but not exclusively, if you are registered as a member and logged in to the respective platforms.

The processing of your personal data by Bayern Innovativ GmbH is based on our legitimate interests in effective information and communication pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f. EU-DS-GVO.

If you are asked for consent to data processing, i.e. if you declare your consent by confirming a button or similar (opt-in), the legal basis of the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a., Art. 7 EU-DS-GVO.

• log out of the respective network before visiting our fan page,
• delete the cookies present on the device and
• close and restart your browser.

After a renewed login, however, you are again recognizable for the network as a specific user.
