3) Data processing to fulfill legal reporting obligations (pharmacovigilance)
Personal data of data subjects will generally be deleted by the controller as soon as the purpose of the processing no longer applies. However, it may be necessary to store personal data even after the original necessity has ceased to exist, e.g. due to legal obligations.
If we receive information or a report in connection with the use of our medicinal products, we are legally obliged to record these reports in a structured manner and forward them to the responsible drug regulatory organizations.
As part of the notification, personal data of the notifying person and the patients concerned are processed. The legal basis for this processing of personal data is the fulfillment of legal obligations regarding the monitoring of the safety of medicinal products in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 subpara. 1 lit. c and Article 9 para. 2 lit. i GDPR in conjunction with EU Regulation 520/2012.
The data will be transmitted to appropriately authorized organizations exclusively for the purpose of clarifying the facts and fulfilling the reporting obligations. Personal data is stored for the duration of the marketing authorization of the medicinal product and for a further 10 years thereafter.
III Description and scope of data processing
1) Provision of the website and log files
Each time you visit our website, our system, i.e. the web server, automatically collects information from the system of your accessing computer or end device.
The following data is collected by us:
- Information about the browser type and version used
- the operating system of the end device
- the Internet service provider
- the IP address
- Date and time of access
- the previous website from which the user reached our website (referrer URL)
a) Purpose of data processing
The temporary storage of your IP address by our system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to your device. For this purpose, the IP address of the end device must necessarily remain stored for the duration of the session. The above-mentioned data is stored in log files to ensure the functionality of our website. We also use this data to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems (e.g. to detect attacks).
b) Legal basis
The legal basis for the temporary storage of this data and the log files is Art. 6 para. 1 subpara. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interests of us as the website operator in the secure, trouble-free and legally compliant provision of the website).
c) Duration of storage
The above-mentioned data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.
In the case of the storage of data in log files, this is the case after 7 days at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the user’s IP address is deleted or anonymized by us so that it is no longer possible to identify the accessing client and the data contained can no longer be linked to a specific person.
2) Session cookies
To make it easier for you to use our website, we use so-called “session cookies”. These are small text files that are only stored on your hard disk for the duration of your visit to our website and are deleted again when you close your browser, depending on the settings of your browser program. These cookies do not retrieve any information stored on your hard disk about you and do not affect your files.
Most browsers are set to accept cookies automatically. However, you can deactivate the storage of cookies or set your browser to notify you when cookies are sent. Please note that individual functions of our website may be impaired if you have deactivated the use of cookies.
3) E-mail and contact form
We can be contacted via our contact form and the e-mail address provided. In this case, the sender’s personal data transmitted with the request (in any case the name and e-mail address) will be stored together with the content of the message.
a) Purpose of the processing
The processing of this personal data serves us to process the content of the contact.
b) Legal basis
The legal basis for the processing of this data, which is transmitted in the course of sending a request, is Art. 6 para. 1 subpara. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate, concurrent interest of us as the responsible body in communicating with the person transmitting the message).
If the request is aimed at the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 subpara. 1 lit. b GDPR (fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures for this).
c) Duration of storage
The above-mentioned data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. For personal data sent by email or via the contact form, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. As a rule, the conversation is ended when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified. In the case of the preparation or execution of contracts, longer retention periods may result from statutory (e.g. tax law) requirements.
d) Possibility of objection
As a user, you have the option to object to data processing at any time with effect for the future. In this case, all personal data stored in the course of making contact will be deleted immediately, provided that there are no statutory retention periods or other legal reasons to the contrary.
4) Analysis of the website
4.1 Google Tag Manager – Management of tools
We use the Google Tag Manager.
The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, with whom we have concluded a corresponding data processing agreement.

As a website operator, we have an interest in the fast and uncomplicated administration of the various tools on our website.
Google Tag Manager is an organizational tool that allows us to integrate and efficiently manage website tags centrally and via a user interface.
The Google Tag Manager collects data on the website and forwards it to the connected analysis tools. These tools (e.g. Google Analytics) then store and evaluate this data if they are activated.
The Google Tag Manager is a domain and does not store any data itself. It has no access to it. The Tag Manager only collects data on how individual tags are used. However, Google Tag Manager collects your IP address, which may also be transmitted to Google’s parent company in the United States.

Nevertheless, we would like to point out that, according to the current legal situation, there is no level of data protection in the USA comparable to the standards of the European Union.

We use the ‘anonymizeIP’ function (so-called IP masking): Due to the activation of IP anonymization on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.

- technical information about your browser and the end devices you use (e.g. language setting, screen resolution)
- Your Internet provider
- the referrer URL (via which website/advertising medium you came to this website)
a) Purposes of the processing
On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your pseudonymous use of the website and to compile reports on website activity. The reports provided by Google Analytics are used to analyze the performance of our website.
b) Recipients of the data
The recipient of the data is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland as the processor. We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google for this purpose. A transfer of data to the USA cannot be ruled out. Google LLC, based in California, USA, and any US authorities may be able to access the data stored by Google.
We would like to point out that the USA does not offer a level of protection of your personal data comparable to that of the EU.

However, if you configure your browser to reject all cookies, this may limit the functionality of this and other websites.
5) Google reCAPTCHA
Our Offers use reCAPTCHA, a function provided by Google Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. If you use this function, your IP address will be transmitted to Google servers. We use Google reCAPTCHA to prevent the misuse of our contact options through spam.

6) YouTube videos
We use the YouTube.com platform to post our own videos and make them publicly accessible. YouTube is the offer of a third party not affiliated with us, namely Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Some of the pages on our website contain links to YouTube. In general, we are not responsible for the content of linked websites. However, in the event that you follow a link to YouTube, we would like to point out that YouTube stores the data of its users (e.g. personal information, IP address) in accordance with its own data usage guidelines and uses it for business purposes.
We also directly integrate videos stored on YouTube on some of our websites. With this integration, content from the YouTube website is displayed in parts of a browser window. However, the YouTube videos are only called up by clicking on them separately. This technique is also known as “framing”. When you call up a (sub)page of our website on which YouTube videos are integrated in this form, a connection to the YouTube servers is established and the content is displayed on the website by notifying your browser.
The integration of YouTube content only takes place in “extended data protection mode”. This is provided by YouTube itself and ensures that YouTube does not initially store any cookies on your device. However, when the relevant pages are accessed, the IP address and the aforementioned other data are transmitted and thus, in particular, which of our Internet pages you have visited. However, this information cannot be assigned to you unless you have logged in to YouTube or another Google service before accessing the page or are permanently logged in.
As soon as you start playing an embedded video by clicking on it, YouTube only stores cookies on your device through the extended data protection mode, which do not contain any personally identifiable data, unless you are currently logged in to a Google service. These cookies can be prevented by making the appropriate browser settings and extensions.
The legal basis for the integration of the content is Art. 6 para. 1 subpara. 1 lit. f GDPR:
Our legitimate interest lies in the provision of content to inform you as a website visitor about products and services.
