Information on the Responsible Party
The responsible party for data processing on this website is:
Michael Gress
Stresemannstraße, 183
22769 Hamburg
Germany
Email: hello@grafteddreams.art
The responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).
Storage Duration
Unless a more specific storage period is stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a justified request for deletion or withdraw consent for data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for retaining your personal data (e.g. tax or commercial retention periods). In the latter case, deletion takes place once these reasons no longer apply.
Legal Basis for Data Processing
Where you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, where special categories of data are processed under Art. 9(1) GDPR. In the case of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, processing is also based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. Where consent has been given for the storage of cookies or access to information on your device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), processing is additionally based on Section 25(1) TDDDG. Consent may be revoked at any time.
If your data is required for contract performance or pre-contractual measures, we process it on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we process data where required to comply with a legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR). Data processing may also be based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The relevant legal basis in each individual case is explained in the following sections of this privacy policy.
Recipients of Personal Data
In the course of our business activities, we work with various external parties. In some cases, it is necessary to transfer personal data to these external parties.
We only pass on personal data if this is necessary for contract performance, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. disclosure to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the transfer. When using processors, we only transfer personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.
Withdrawal of Your Consent
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent at any time. The legality of data processing carried out before withdrawal remains unaffected.
Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
If data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based is set out in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds which override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such advertising purposes; this also applies to profiling related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for direct marketing purposes.
Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority
In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement. This right exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. You also have the right to have this data transmitted directly to another controller where technically feasible.
Right of Access, Rectification, and Erasure
Within the scope of applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and the purpose of processing, and, where applicable, the right to rectification or deletion of this data. You may contact us at any time for this purpose.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time to do so. This right applies in the following cases:
If you dispute the accuracy of your data while we verify it
If processing is unlawful and you request restriction instead of deletion
If we no longer need the data but you require it for legal claims
If you have objected under Art. 21(1) GDPR and a balancing of interests is pending
If processing is unlawful and you request restriction instead of deletion
If we no longer need the data but you require it for legal claims
If you have objected under Art. 21(1) GDPR and a balancing of interests is pending
If processing is restricted, such data may only be processed (apart from storage) with your consent or for legal claims, protection of rights, or important public interest reasons.
