General information
The following information provides an overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit this website. Personal data is all data with which you can be personally identified. GCPre Consulting takes the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this data protection policy.
Please be aware that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
Legal basis for data processing
If you have provided consent, we process your personal data based on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Where special categories of personal data are processed, we do so under Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR. In the case of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing will also be carried out on the basis of Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. Consent can be revoked at any time. If processing is necessary for fulfilling a contract or pre-contractual measures, it will be based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Additionally, data may be processed if required by law (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR) or for legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Responsible body
The responsible body is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).

How do we collect your data?
Some data is collected automatically or with your consent, as soon as you enter this website. This is primarily technical data (e.g. Internet browser).
Your data may also be collected when you communicate it to us, for example, via email.
What do we use your data for?
Some of the data is collected to ensure that the website is provided without errors.
Data that you provide via email or telephone will be used for the sole purpose of processing your request.
What rights do you have regarding your data?
You have the right to obtain information about the origin, recipient and purpose of your stored personal data free of charge at any time. You also have the right to request that this data be corrected or deleted. If you have given your consent to data processing, you can revoke this consent at any time for the future. You also have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted under certain circumstances. Furthermore, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
More details about your rights are explained below in this policy statement. You can contact us at any time with any questions about this or other issues relating to data protection at contact@gcpreconsulting.com.
Storage period
Unless a more specific storage period has been specified, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies or until you request deletion. If you make a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, deletion will take place once these reasons no longer apply.
Sharing of personal data
As part of our business activities, we may work with external parties. In some cases, this also requires the transmission of personal data to these external parties. We only pass on personal data to external parties if this is necessary to fulfil a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. passing on data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the transfer according to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis allows the data to be passed on.
When using contract processors, we only pass on our customers’ personal data on the basis of a valid contract for order processing. In the case of joint processing, a contract for joint processing is concluded.
Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out up to the time of revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to object
If the data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) GDPR or Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can prove compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or the processing is for the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal claims (objection according to Art. 21(1) GDPR).
If your personal data is processed to carry out direct marketing, you have the right to object to the processing of your data at any time concerning personal data for the purpose of such advertising. This also applies to profiling in so far as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for the purposes of direct marketing (objection according to Art. 21(2) GDPR).
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, those affected 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 violation. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to data portability
You have the right, in accordance with Art. 20 GDPR, to receive the personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. This means that the data can be easily transferred and used by different services or providers. Additionally, you have the right to request that we transfer this data to another controller, where technically feasible. This right applies only if the data processing is based on your consent or on a contract, as per Art. 6(1)(a) or (b) GDPR and if the data processing is carried out by automated means.
If you request the direct transfer of your personal data to another controller, this will only take place where technically feasible. However, this right must not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
Right to information, correction and deletion
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data. If you wish to exercise this right, you can contact us at any time at contact@gcpreconsulting.com.
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to do so at contact@gcpreconsulting.com. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:
- If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to check this. For the duration of the check, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
- If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted instead of deleted.
- If you have lodged an objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR, a determination must be made as to whether your interests or our legitimate interests take precedence. During the period of review, you have the right to request a restriction on the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data may – with the exception of storage – only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

Inquiry by email or telephone
If you contact us by email or phone, your request, including all personal data resulting from it (name, request), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We will not pass on this data without your consent unless we are legally required to do so. This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, provided that your request is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of the requests addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) if this was requested; the consent can be revoked at any time.
The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.
