7. Legal Bases for Data Processing

7.1. Performance of a Contract

Where the data subject is a natural person who is the contractual partner, the legal basis for data processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. In such cases, data processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract.

7.2. Compliance with a Legal Obligation

Pursuant to Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR, the Company may process personal data in order to comply with accounting, tax, administrative, land registry, and other legal obligations to which it is subject.

7.3. Legitimate Interest

Pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, a legitimate interest of the Company or a third party may include in particular communication with representatives and contact persons of legal entity contractual partners, secure and efficient management of contractual relationships, financing and evaluation of projects, and the bringing, enforcement, or defense of legal claims.

In the case of data processing based on legitimate interests, the Company balances its own or a third party's legitimate interests against the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject. The Company processes data only if the legitimate interest takes precedence under the given circumstances.

8. Provision of Data

The provision of certain personal data may be based on a statutory or contractual requirement, or may be necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract.

In the absence of the necessary data, the Company may not be able to prepare, conclude, or perform the contract, make payments, or fulfill a legal or administrative obligation.

9. Data Retention Period

The Company processes personal data during the existence of the contractual relationship and, following its termination, for as long as necessary to fulfill the relevant legal obligations or to bring, enforce, or defend legal claims.

  • Contractual and contact data are generally retained until the end of the general limitation period from the termination of the legal relationship.
  • Accounting documents and the data on which they are based are retained for the retention period prescribed by accounting legislation, generally for at least 8 years.
  • In the event of administrative or judicial proceedings or legal disputes, data are processed until the final closure of the proceedings or dispute and until the end of the applicable retention period thereafter.

If multiple retention periods apply to the same data, the Company applies the longer retention period. Following the expiry of the retention period, personal data are deleted or anonymized, unless their further retention is lawfully necessary.

10. Data Transfer and Recipients

The Company may transfer or make personal data accessible only to the extent necessary and on an appropriate legal basis.

Recipients of personal data may include the following persons and organizations in particular:

  • companies belonging to the same group of companies as the Company;
  • lawyers, notaries, tax advisors, accountants, auditors, and other professional advisors;
  • banks, financiers, insurers, appraisers, and rating organizations;
  • technical designers, contractors, operators, and other service providers involved in the project;
  • state and local authorities, land registry authorities, tax authorities, courts, and other public bodies;
  • IT, hosting, document management, and other administrative service providers;
  • prospective or actual investors, financiers, purchasers, intermediaries, and their advisors, where data transfer is necessary for the preparation and execution of project financing, corporate, or project transactions.

Service providers acting as data processors may process personal data solely on the basis of the Company's instructions and the data processing agreement concluded with them.

Data transfer to a country outside the European Economic Area or to an international organization may take place only upon fulfillment of the conditions set out in Chapter V of the GDPR and with the application of appropriate safeguards.

11. Automated Decision-Making

The Company does not carry out solely automated decision-making or profiling based on personal data falling within the scope of this notice that would produce legal effects concerning the data subject or similarly significantly affect the data subject.

12. Rights of Data Subjects

The data subject is entitled, in accordance with the conditions of the GDPR, to:

  • request information and access to personal data processed about them;
  • request the rectification of inaccurate personal data and the completion of incomplete data;
  • request the erasure of their personal data if the legal conditions for such erasure are met;
  • request the restriction of processing;
  • exercise their right to data portability if the conditions for such right are met;
  • object to data processing based on legitimate interest;
  • lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority;
  • seek judicial remedy.

Following an objection, the Company will no longer process the personal data unless it demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing is for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

Requests to exercise rights may be submitted to the Data Controller at the contact details specified in Section 2 of this notice.

The Company will respond to the request without undue delay and in any event within one month of receipt of the request. This period may be extended by a further two months in the cases specified in the GDPR.

13. Complaint and Remedy
