Categories of Personal Data and Processing Purposes - What personal data do we process about you and why?
You may use the Website without actively providing any personal data about you.

​
Your IP address will be used to enable your access to our Website. Once the IP address is no longer necessary for this purpose, we will shorten your IP address by removing the last octet of your IP address. The metadata, including the shortened IP address, will be used to improve the quality and services of our Website by analyzing the usage behavior of our users in statistical form and to prevent fraud, misuse of our IT systems, as well as to ensure physical, IT and network security.
Your metadata are not actively provided by you, but automatically collected by Origenis via the Website in connection with your usage of the Website.
​
Processing Basis and Consequences - What is the legal justification for processing your personal data and what happens if you choose not to provide it?
We rely on the following legal grounds for the collection, processing, and use of your metadata:
the processing is necessary to provide the Websites and related services as requested by you;
your consent;
the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject;
the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of you which require protection of personal data; such legitimate interests are the fulfilment of the processing purposes set out above in Section 1.
Overall, making your metadata available via the Website is voluntary for you and not required by law. If you do not make your metadata available, this will not result in legal consequences for you, but you will not be able to use the Website.

In very limited circumstances, we may transfer - in compliance with applicable data protection law - your metadata to law enforcement agencies, governmental authorities, judicial authorities, legal counsel, external consultants, or business partners.

Within Origenis, any access to your metadata is restricted to those individuals that have a need-to-know in order to fulfill their job responsibilities.
International transfers.

In particular, you should expect that we may engage service providers located outside of the EEA, in which case we will provide you with an updated Notice.
