DATA PROTECTION

The protection of your personal data is of particular concern to us. We therefore process your data exclusively on the basis of the statutory provisions and inform you in this privacy policy about our practices to protect your personal rights.

What does the scope of application include?

In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation, the Federal Data Protection Act and the Telemedia Act, thisprivacy policy is intended to inform you about the nature, scope and purpose of the collection and use of your personal data by SLG Treasury GmbH (SLG).

SLG is responsible for the processing of personal data and has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed.

Internet-based data transmissions in particular can generally have security gaps, meaning that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.

What terms are used?

The following terms are used in our privacy policy in accordance with the statutory provisions

  • Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as "data subject").
  • Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.
  • Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
  • Controller or controller responsible for the processing is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (in this case SLG).
  • Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
  • Consent is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject's wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

We collect, use and process the following personal data as part of our business activities:

  • Name
  • First name
  • Gender
  • Title
  • Company
  • Contact details (e-mail, telephone number)
  • Position
  • SLG seminar and event participation
  • Personal data relevant to the event (e.g. interest profile)
  • SLG SystemGuid usage data

How is personal data used?

  • We use personal data to contact our customers and interested parties in the course of initiating business (in particular by sending T-Log, newsletters and mailings as well as through customer visits and calls).
  • We process and transfer personal data as part of our business relationships with customers and suppliers.
  • We process all information required for the organization and implementation of any of our own events and seminars.

How do we keep personal data up to date and how long do we store it?

We use various contact options (e.g. telephone) to ensure that your personal data is correct, complete and up-to-date.

We retain personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

When do we pass on data to third parties?

We occasionally share certain personal data with strategic partners (service providers or other third parties) who work with us to provide our services and products or to comply with a legal requirement.

In the context of events, we also pass on personal data (e.g. interest profile) to third-party providers participating in the event for marketing purposes out of legitimate interest and bring participants and these third-party providers together. In all cases, we will obtain your consent for this.

We oblige all third-party providers to protect your personal data.

  • In addition, exhibitors at the congress are offered a lead tracking service with which the individual exhibitor scans the barcode on your admission ticket and thus - similar to a business card - receives your contact details. These are in detail: Company name, salutation, title, first and last name, function, postal address, country, telephone number(s), email address and any other information you may have provided regarding interests and/or your company.
  • You can decide on a case-by-case basis whether to pass on your data by offering the respective exhibitor your admission ticket for scanning. Unnoticed data collection without your cooperation does not take place.
  • In line with the international character of the trade fair (or congress), exhibitors based outside the European Union and therefore outside the scope of European data protection legislation are also represented. Here, too, you can object to or consent to the forwarding of your data in individual cases by withdrawing or offering your admission ticket for scanning.
