Information on date processing

The Ministerium für Wirtschaft, Arbeit und Tourismus Baden-Württemberg (Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour and Tourism Baden-Württemberg) takes the protection of your personal data very seriously. Consequently, we have taken measures to ensure that we are compliant with data protection rules.

What personal data do we record and where does the data come from?

The categories of personal data processed include the following in particular:

  • Your master data (such as first name, surname, titles and functions)
  • Contact details (address, (mobile) phone number, e-mail address)
  • Photos and videos.

Your personal data will always be collected from you directly when you contact us or when you register for our events.

For what purpose and on what legal basis does data processing take place?

We process your personal data in accordance with the rules of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and of the

LDSG (“Landesdatenschutzgesetz”: State Data Protection Law).

Data processing takes place primarily for the purpose of organising and holding the event organised by us for which you have registered. Photos and video recordings of the event maybe be published online or in one of our publications for PR purposes. The primary legal basis for this is provided by Article 4 LDSG in conjunction with Article 6 No. 1 (e) GDPR.

In addition, consent given by you separately pursuant to Article 6 No. 1 (a), Article 7 GDPR may be used as consent under data protection regulations

How long is your data stored for?

We delete your personal data as soon as it is no longer required for the aforementioned purposes. Your data will also be deleted if you make use of your right to revoke consent or to object. If you have not given us consent to store your data for the purpose of informing you of and inviting you to events organised by the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour and Housing Baden-Württemberg, your data will be deleted once the event has taken place. We have in place a deletion concept with regular inspections of the data sets in order to ensure that the data is deleted.

Who has access to your data?

Within the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour and Housing Baden-Württemberg, only those persons and departments (representatives of the specialist department etc.) have access to your personal data that are involved in organising and holding the event.

Because your personal data is processed for the purpose of organising and holding events, we engage service providers from the field of event management and IT to process data in line with instructions.

What are your rights as the data subject?

You have the rights afforded by Articles 15 to 21 GDPR:

  • Right of access (Article 15 GDPR)
  • Right to rectification (Article 16 GDPR)
  • Right to erasure (Article 17 GDPR)
  • Right to restriction of processing (Article 18 GDPR)
  • Right to data portability (Article 20 GDPR)
  • Right to object to processing (Article 21 GDPR)

Right of revocation

If we process your data based on a declaration of consent, you have the right at all times to revoke such consent with effect for the future. The legality of the processing that has taken place based on consent up until the point when consent is revoked remains unaffected.

The revocation must be addressed to:

Ministerium für Wirtschaft, Arbeit und Tourismus Baden-Württemberg
Schlossplatz 4, Neues Schloss
70173 Stuttgart
Germany
pressestelle@wm.bwI.de

Right to object

If we process your data based on Article 4 LDSG in conjunction with Article 6 No. 1 (e) GDPR, you can object to such processing for reasons relating to your specific situation. We will then no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

The objection must be addressed to:

Ministerium für Wirtschaft, Arbeit und Tourismus Baden-Württemberg
