4    Handling of your data
4.1    Personal data

According to Art. 4 GDPR, personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more personal characteristics that are an expression of that natural person's physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity.

4.2    Registration on the platform
When a user registers, the following data is stored at IREKS for the purpose of providing and using the platform (uploading and / or downloading data):
•    Name
•    First name
•    E-mail = Login name
•    Password

IREKS receives this data voluntarily from you, the user.
A registered user can request his deregistration on the platform at any time. The user orders the deregistration without notice and formless with a responsible administrator of IREKS. IREKS is responsible for the deletion of the data. The use of the platform is only possible by providing the above mentioned data.
In addition to registered users, non-registered users can also upload or download files. Such a possibility can be provided by registered users by sending links.

IREKS does not pass on user data to third parties or compare it with other data. A forwarding to third countries does not take place, either.

For each action in the application, the following data is stored at IREKS to ensure traceability and thus secure technical operation (activity logging):

•    User name

•    Name of the file/folder when working with files/folders
•    the date and time of the request
•    data volume transferred
•    Status of the action
•    the IP address of the participating computer (client)

For reasons of data security and data protection, i.e. in order to be able to clarify unauthorised access or prevent misuse, the complete IP address of the requesting computer as well as the e-mail address (also in the case of actions by unlicensed users) are recorded, stored and automatically deleted 30 days after the end of the access.
Other data will be deleted after 30 days after deletion of the user profile.

4.4    Purposes and legal bases
We process your data in accordance with the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Federal Data Protection Act 2018, as amended:

The platform is used for the exchange of data in file form (file sharing) between the partners involved in order to fulfil contractual obligations or in the initiation phase of a contract.

•    for the protection of legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit.f GDPR):
Based on a balancing of interests, data processing may take place beyond the actual fulfilment of the contract in order to protect the legitimate interests of us or third parties. Data processing for the protection of legitimate interests occurs, for example, in the following cases: Retention of project documentation such as specifications, requirements specifications, operating instructions, design documentation; commercial documents such as contracts, license documents.
