Fundamentals of data storage at delosfoto GmbH according to Art. 5 Para. 1 GDPR

The storage of images and their descriptions is based on a contract with photographers.

The production, recording, description and archiving of images is a pre-contractual measure for the transfer of rights of use. Pictures are the business basis of delosfoto GmbH. Therefore the storage is an essential interest of the picture agency.

The processing of the data is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract to which the person or company concerned is a party and for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. Contracting parties are picture agency, photographers and customers.

It is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation (order) to which the company delosfoto GmbH is subject (Art. 6 Para. 1b Para. 1c GDPR).

By an inquiry or an order with the delosfoto GmbH the consent is given to the storage and processing of the necessary data according to Art. 6 Para. 1a of the GDPR.

The earmarking results from the business basis of a picture agency. Images as well as data are legal, have a clear and defined purpose. Images and data are collected, processed and stored for a specified purpose.

Only the data necessary for a careful order processing and for a proper financial accounting are stored. Personal data is stored regarding the management and contact persons of the customers. Salutation, surname, first name, qualification, department, function, communication data (telephone, fax, email address) and gender are stored. Private addresses and personal characteristics of contact persons are not stored unless the customer is a private individual.

The data of the photographers and employees are stored analogous to the above data of the customers. Legal basis for the storage of the data is a contract.

The legal basis for the storage of customer data is an existing or potential customer relationship.

Only the data necessary for careful order processing and proper financial accounting are stored. Personal data is stored regarding the management and contact persons of the customers.

For this purpose, salutation, surname, first name, qualification, department, function, communication data (telephone, fax, e-mail address) and gender are stored. Private addresses and personal characteristics of contact persons are not stored.

Legal bases of the data storage acc. art. 6 GDPR and processing are

  • consent

  • contract fulfilment

  • earmarking

  • and legitimate interest

The website of delosfoto GmbH is accessible worldwide.

A further passing on of data to third parties or third states according to art. 44 - 50 GDPR does not take place.

The data stored at delosfoto GmbH is used specifically for advertising purposes,

but not for scattered advertising. Customer data is not sold.

The data stored in the images can be viewed in the "Metadata" link above the corresponding image, here using the example of a model photograph. Names and data of the model are not stored, but are recorded in a written contract.

Other sensitive data is not stored.

The legal basis for the storage of image and metadata in this case is a model contract.

The website of delosfoto GmbH is free of advertising. There is a link to Facebook.

The collection of picture, customer and supplier data is carried out by an EDP, so the GDPR and the BDSG also apply to delosfoto GmbH. (Image 456 shows an example)

Annex 9- Basic Principle of Data Processing in the Web_delosfoto-GmbH_27112019

 

Data origin

The origin of the customer data lies in existing customer contacts, further recommendations of customers as well as from incoming e-mails with inquiries after pictures of the delosfoto GmbH

 

Furthermore, the information required in all publications in the imprint is used for advertising measures.

 

The origin of the pictures and the corresponding descriptions is a photographer.

Data protection Art. 32 Art. 30 and Art. 5 para. 1 GDPR

Sensitive areas with data are all PCs with Internet access, all PCs in-house, all backup media and the server on the Internet. All of these components only allow access to employees who have the appropriate passwords. Data is backed up in-house on a NAS. Another data backup takes place on removable hard disks, which are kept locked by the GF in his apartment.

Access data for working on the Internet are e-mail address and password. Passwords are stored encrypted on the server.

A backup of the entire web server www.delosfoto.de is transferred every night to an Amazon backup server for backup and restore purposes. The transfer of the backup to AWS is encrypted. The data stored there is also encrypted, so no data processing can take place through AWS. Therefore no ADV contract is necessary with AWS.

Images and associated image descriptions can be viewed worldwide. The rights of use for the pictures can be acquired worldwide by customers.

 

External data processing (order processing) according to Art. 28 GDPR and §11 BDSG

External data processing takes place within the framework of payroll accounting, e-mail providers, accounting and balance sheet preparation. For the observance of the GDPR in tax questions the assigned tax consultant guarantees, because for tax consultants, lawyers, notaries and auditors ADV contracts are not necessary.

For the use of e-mail functionalities one needs a provider. A corresponding ADV contract is present.

The website delosfoto.de is hosted by the German company Hetzner. Also for this an ADV contract is available. Here data are processed without influence of the webhoster.

 

Right to information Art. 15 GDPR; Right to rectification Art. 15 and 16 GDPR

This is where delosfoto GmbH comes in:

BDSG § 57 Right to information

(1.) The controller shall, upon request, provide data subjects with information as to whether he or she is processing data relating to them. Data subjects shall also have the right to obtain information on

1. the personal data subject to the processing and the category to which they belong,

2. the available information on the origin of the data,

3. the purposes of the processing and its legal basis,

4. the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the data have been disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organisations,

     5. the storage period applicable to the data or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining that period,

6. the existence of a right to rectification, erasure or limitation of the processing of data by the data controller,

    7. the right under section 60 to appeal to the Federal Government Commissioner or the Federal Government Commissioner, and

    8. information on the availability of the Federal Commissioner.

 

However, data can only be deleted if there are no legal provisions (storage obligations) to the contrary

 

Images that a photographed person objects to are immediately removed from the search if the person concerned is recognizable on the image and can prove his identity.

 

The right to information applies equally to customers, persons depicted and photographers.

 

The same applies to the correction of stored data.

 

Permission from model contracts and property contracts cannot be revoked unless the model was younger than 16 years when the model contract was signed.

delosfoto GmbH provides on its website a corresponding form for the right to information:

Annex 2 - Request for information form-27112019

 

Automated decision making and profiling according to Art. 22 GDPR does not take place.

 

Right to cancellation Art. 17 GDPR

 

Data can only be deleted if there are no legal provisions (storage obligations) to the contrary. A deletion cannot take place likewise, if according to §195 BGB limitation periods oppose this and/or recourse claims threaten.

 

A picture which corresponds to the legal bases of the KUG cannot be deleted.

 

A withdrawal of the consent to the data storage according to art. 17 para. 3 GDPR causes inevitably the end of the business relation, if no legal storage obligations oppose.

 

General: A deletion of data can always be requested if

 

the purpose for collecting the data no longer applies

 

  • a data subject withdraws his/her consent to the processing of the data

  • or the data collection or data processing has taken place unlawfully.

  • the focus of the activity is not data processing

  • the number of employees is less than 10.

The duties of the data protection officer are assumed by the managing director.

Processing of particularly sensitive data

Particularly sensitive data will not be processed. However, pictures with persons depicted contain the representation of gender, race, profession and other data.

 

Employment data protection

Employee data protection follows the principles described above. The associated data is collected and processed for proper payroll accounting.

 

Data relocation according to Art. 20 GDPR

The problem does not arise with the data of delosfoto GmbH.

A publication of image data, image processing and workflows and similar internal procedures, no matter in which form, is excluded.

 

Processing directories

have been drawn up according to the type of reception and processing of the data.
