1. Definitions
The data protection declaration of Toccata Europe is based on the terms used by the European legislator for directives and regulations when the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was adopted. Our data protection declaration should be easy to read and understand for the public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terminology used in advance.
We use the following terms in this data protection declaration:
Personal data Personal data is all information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as „data subject“). A natural person is regarded as identifiable who, directly or indirectly, in particular by means of assignment to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or one or more special features that express the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity of this natural person can be identified.
Affected person is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the person responsible for processing.
Processing is any process carried out with or without the help of automated processes or any such series of processes in connection with personal data such as the collection, recording, organization, ordering, storage, adaptation or change, reading, querying, use , disclosure by transmission, distribution or any other form of provision, comparison or linking, restriction, deletion or destruction.
Restriction of processing Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting their future processing.
Profiling is any type of automated processing of personal data that consists of using this personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects that relate to a natural person, in particular to assess aspects relating to work performance, economic situation, health, to analyze or predict personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, whereabouts or change of location of this natural person. Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in a way in which the personal data can no longer be processed without the use of additional information specific data subject can be assigned, provided that this additional information is stored separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures that ensure that the personal data is not assigned to an identified or identifiable natural person.

The person responsible or the person responsible for the processing or the person responsible for the processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body that alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data. If the purposes and means of this processing are specified by Union law or the law of the member states, the person responsible or the specific criteria for his appointment can be provided for in accordance with Union law or the law of the member states. Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the person responsible.
Recipient is a natural or legal person, authority, institution or other body to which personal data is disclosed, regardless of whether it is a third party or not. However, authorities that may receive personal data as part of a specific investigation under Union law or the law of the member states are not considered recipients.
A third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, the person responsible, the processor and the persons who are authorized to process the personal data under the direct responsibility of the person responsible or the processor.
Consent is any voluntary, informed and unequivocal declaration of intent made by the data subject for the specific case in the form of a declaration or other unequivocal affirmative action with which the data subject indicates that they are processing their personal data agrees.
2. Collection of data
The Toccata Europe website collects a series of general data and information each time the website is accessed by a data subject or an automated system. These general data and information are stored in the server’s log files. The
– browser types and versions used,
– the operating system used by the accessing system,
– the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrer),
– the sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website,
– the date and time of access to the website,
– an internet protocol address (IP address),
– the Internet service provider of the accessing system and
– Other similar data and information that serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using this general data and information, Toccata Europe does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed:
– to correctly deliver the content of our website,
– to optimize the content of our website and the advertising for it,
– to ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website as well
– to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for law enforcement in the event of a cyber attack.
This anonymously collected data and information is therefore statistically and further evaluated by Toccata Europe with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data processed by us. The anonymous data in the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.
3. Legal or contractual provisions for the provision of personal data; Necessity for the conclusion of the contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision
We would like to inform you that the provision of personal data is in part required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information on the contractual partner). In order to conclude a contract, it may sometimes be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data that we subsequently have to process. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data when our company concludes a contract with them. Failure to provide personal data would mean that the contract cannot be concluded with the person concerned.
5. Use of cookies
In order to make visiting our website attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called cookies on various pages. These are small text files that are saved on your device. Some of the cookies we use are deleted at the end of the browser session, for ex. after you close your browser (so-called session cookies).

6. Note on data transfer to the USA
Tools from companies based in the USA are integrated on our website. When these tools are active, your personal data can be passed on to the US servers of the respective companies. We would like to point out that the USA is not a safe third country within the meaning of EU data protection law. US companies are obliged to surrender personal data to security authorities without you as the person concerned being able to take legal action against this. It cannot therefore be ruled out that US authorities (cf. secret services) process, evaluate and permanently store your data on US servers for monitoring purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.

11. Legal basis for processing
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are required to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data, for example to fulfill tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, it may be necessary to process personal data in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor to our company were injured and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. The processing would then be based on Article 6 (1) (d) GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the person concerned do not prevail. We are particularly permitted to carry out such processing operations because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, he took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the person concerned is a customer of the person responsible (recital 47 sentence 2 GDPR).
