III. General information about data processing
1. Scope of the processing of personal data
We collect and use the personal data of our users only if this is required for the provision of a functional website as well as our content and services. Our users’ personal data are regularly collected and used only with the user’s consent. An exception only applies if it is not possible to obtain the consent beforehand for factual reasons and the processing of data is permitted by law.
2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data
If we obtain the data subject’s consent to the processing procedures for personal data, art. 6 (1) point a of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as legal basis.
Art. 6 (1) point b GDPR serves as legal basis for the processing of personal data required for the fulfilment of a contract whose contracting party is the data subject. This also applies to processing procedures required for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.
If processing personal data is required to comply with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, art. 6 (1) point c GDPR servers as legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, art. 6 (1) point d GDPR serves as legal basis.
If the processing is required to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, basic rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not override the aforementioned interest, art. 6 (1) point f GDPR serves as legal basis for the processing.
3. Data erasure and storage period
The personal data of the data subject are erased or blocked once the storage purpose ceases to be relevant. Data may be stored beyond this period if this is provided for by European or national legislature in regulations, laws or other rules of the Union to which the controller is subject. Data are also blocked or deleted if a storage period stipulated by the mentioned laws expires, unless the continued storage of the data is required for the conclusion of a contract or the fulfilment of a contract.
IV. Data processing for the fulfilment of a contract and the purpose of the association
1. Description and scope of data processing
The following data are collected and stored to fulfil the contract:
- Name, contact details and contact person of the contracting partner, if they are provided by the respective contracting partner.
- Documents or contracts may be stored in our files as originals or photocopies or electronically in our electronic files.
- Email contacts are also stored electronically. Further details can be found in section X. Privacy policy regarding email contacts.
2. Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of data is art. 6 (1) point a GDPR if the user has given his/her consent.
If data are collected to fulfil a contract whose contracting party is the user or to implement pre-contractual measures, the additional legal basis for the processing of data is art. 6 (1) point b GDPR.
3. Purpose of data processing
The collection of the above-mentioned data is necessary for fulfilling a contract with the user or implementing pre-contractual measures.
The data are required for the fulfilment of the contract since the contact details and contact persons of the client are required to establish contact and in particular to send documents.
4. Duration of storage
The data are erased once they are no longer necessary in relation to achieving the purpose for which they were collected.
This applies to the period of the continuous obligation for the fulfilment of a contract or the implementation of pre-contractual measures if the data are no longer necessary in relation to the performance of the contract. It may still be necessary to store personal data of the contracting partner after the conclusion of the contract to comply with contractual or legal obligations.
We are obligated in the scope of our activities as an association to retain our business documents and therefore also the personal data contained therein for a period of ten years.
If there are no further contractual or legal obligations, the data are erased after the above-mentioned period has expired.
5. Possibility to object and erase
As the client, you can object to your personal data being stored and / or obtain their erasure at any time. You can have the personal data we store about your person changed at any time.
If the data are needed to fulfil a contract or implement pre-contractual measures, the data can only be erased in advance if there are no contractual or legal obligations which pose an obstacle to the erasure.
V. Provision of the website and creation of log files
1. Description and scope of data processing
When accessing our website, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer.
The following data are thereby collected:
- The IP address of the user
- Date and time of access
- Websites that are accessed by the user’s system via our website
The data are also stored in the log files of our system. The IP address of the user or other data with which the data can be allocated to a user is automatically anonymised. These data are not stored together with other personal data of the user.
2. Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data is art. 6 (1) point f GDPR.
3. Purpose of data processing
The system has to temporarily store the IP address so that the website can be sent to the computer of the user. To this end, the IP address of the user has to be stored for the duration of the session.
The anonymised data are stored in log files to ensure the functionality of the website. Furthermore, we use the data to optimise our website and to ensure the security of our IT systems. The data are not analysed for marketing purposes in this context.
Our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to art. 6 (1) point f GDPR also lies in the above-mentioned purposes.
4. Duration of storage
The data are erased once they are no longer necessary in relation to achieving the purpose for which they were collected. This applies to the collection of data for the purpose of providing the website once the respective session has ended.
This is the case after 190 days at the latest for the storage of data in log files. The data may be stored beyond that period. The IP addresses of the users are distorted, making it impossible to allocate them to the accessing client.
5. Possibility to object and erase
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is imperative for the operation of the website. Therefore, the user cannot object thereto.
VI. Use of Cookies

b) Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of personal data by use of cookies is art. 6 (1) point f GDPR.

The analytics software Matomo (formerly PIWIK) needs these cookies to create statistics on site visits.
Our legitimate interest in processing personal data pursuant to art. 6 (1) point f GDPR also lies in the above-mentioned purposes.
e) Duration of storage, possibility to object and erase
Cookies are stored on the computer of the user and are then transferred to our website from there. This is why you have full control over the use of cookies as the user. By changing the settings of your internet browser, you can disable or restrict the transmission of cookies. Cookies that are already stored can be deleted at any time.

If the processing of your personal data was restricted, these data - besides their storage - may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or the protection of the rights of another natural person or legal entity or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or a Member State.
If the restriction of processing was restricted pursuant to the above-mentioned conditions, you will be notified by the controller before the restriction is lifted.
4. Right to erasure
a) Obligation to erasure

c) Exceptions
The right to erasure does not apply if the processing is required
- for exercising the right to freedom of expression and information;

You have the right vis-à-vis the controller to be informed about these recipients.
6. Right to data portability

- the processing is carried out via automated procedures.
When exercising this right, you also have the right to obtain that your personal data are transferred directly from one controller to another controller, where technically feasible. The freedoms and rights of other persons must not be impacted by doing so.
The right to data portability does not apply to the processing of personal data required for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
7. Right to object
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of your personal data which is based on art. 6 (1) point e or f GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.

9. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR.
The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged informs the complainant on the progress and the outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to art. 78 GDPR.
XII. Online presence in social media
We maintain online presences in social networks (Facebook and YouTube) to communicate with interested parties and users who are active there and inform them about our services. If information is requested or user rights are established, we would like to point out that these may best be claimed with the provider. Only the providers have access to the data of the users and can directly take appropriate measures and provide information. We would like to point out that we do not have any knowledge of the content of the transferred data or its use by Facebook or YouTube. You can find more information about this topic in the respective privacy policies:
- Facebook (Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland) - Privacy policy: www.facebook.com/about/privacy/, Opt out: www.facebook.com/settings, Privacy Shield: www.privacyshield.gov/participant.
- YouTube (Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) - Privacy policy: www.google.com/policies/privacy/, Opt out: adssettings.google.com/authenticated.
XIII. Use of Google Maps
On our website we use Google Maps (API) of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). Google Maps is a web service that displays interactive (land) maps to visually represent geographic information. When the map of all certified schools in Germany is accessed, information about the use of the website (such as the user's IP address) is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.
Google may transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf. Google will not associate the user's IP address with any other data held by Google. Nevertheless, it would be technically possible for Google to use the user data obtained through the use of Google Maps to identify users, to create personality profiles of users or to process and use these for third-party purposes, on which Klasse2000 has no control and cannot have any control.
The terms of use of Google can be viewed at policies.google.com/terms.
The additional terms of use for Google Maps can be viewed at www.google.com/intl/de_US/help/terms_maps.html.
Detailed information on data protection in connection with the use of Google Maps can be found on the Google website ("Google Privacy Policy"): www.google.com/policies/privacy/
XIV. Web analysis with Matomo (formerly PIWIK)
1. Scope of processing of personal data
We use the open source software tool Matomo (formerly PIWIK) on our website to analyse the surfing behaviour of our users. The software places a cookie on the computer of the user (for more information about cookies, see above). If individual sites of our website are accessed, the following data are stored:
- Two bytes of the IP address of the accessing system of the user
- The accessed web page
- The website from which the user visited the accessed web page (referrer)
- The sub-pages which are accessed from the accessed web page
- The time spent on the web page
- The frequency of accessing the web page
The software only runs on the servers of our website. The users’ personal data are only stored there. The data are not transferred to third parties.
The configurations of the software do not allow it to store complete IP addresses; 2 bytes of the IP address are masked (e.g. 192.168.xxx.xxx). In doing so, the shortened IP address cannot be allocated to the accessing computer.
2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data
The legal basis for processing the users’ personal data is art. 6 (1) point f GDPR.
3. Purpose of data processing
By processing the users’ personal data, we can analyse the surfing behaviour of our users. We are able to compile information about the use of the individual components of our website by analysing the collected data. This helps us to continually improve our website and its user-friendliness. Our legitimate interest in processing the data pursuant to art. 6 (1) point f GDPR also lies in the above-mentioned purposes. By anonymising IP addresses, the interest of the users in the protection of their personal data is duly taken into account.
4. Duration of storage
The anonymised data are erased once they are no longer required for our recording purposes.
With us, this is the case after one year.
5. Possibility to object and erase
Cookies are stored on the computer of the user and are then transferred to our website from there. This is why you have full control over the use of cookies as the user. By changing the settings of your internet browser, you can disable or restrict the transmission of cookies. Cookies that are already stored can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are disabled for our website, you may not be able to fully use all functions of the website.
On our website, we offer our users the possibility to opt out of the analysis procedure. You have to click on the corresponding link to do so. In doing so, another cookie is placed in your system which tells our system not to store the data of the user. If the user deletes this cookie from his/her system in the meantime, he/she has to place the opt-out cookie again.
