Our websites contain entry forms and links to send us an e-mail directly. By filling in one of these forms, the data placed in the input form will be sent to us and processed.

A person's personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it is stored is no longer valid.

The data will also be blocked or deleted after the expiry of the storage period specified in the aforementioned legal acts, unless there is a need to continue storing the data for the purpose of concluding or performing a contract.
You have the right to revoke your consent at any time. The lawfulness of data processing carried out on the basis of consent until revoked remains preserved. Please inform the relevant contact person in our company of the revocation of your consent.

The hyperlinks are presented in the form of relevant logos and stored on our server. As a result, no user data is transferred to the individual services when our website is first loaded.

We have no influence over the processing of data on the linked website.
When you visit our website, the information referred to under B. 1. a. as well as information from cookies classified as strictly necessary is processed automatically. The provision of this information is voluntary. Without the provision of this personal data, we cannot display the website in question.
The provision of information occurs voluntarily when the user:
In response to contact from the user, without providing the personal data required in the case in question, we cannot respond to your enquiry in the way you have chosen, or at least in an optimal way. With regard to cookies, a lack of consent may lead to a restriction of the functionality of the website or parts thereof. The playback of integrated videos is not possible without consent.
In our company, individuals and departments only have access to your personal data to the extent that they need it for the above purposes.
We also work with service providers. These service providers work exclusively according to our instructions and are contractually obliged to comply with the applicable data protection requirements.

BASF uses technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorised persons. As technology develops, the security measures we use will be continuously upgraded.
The user has certain rights under the Basic Data Protection Regulation:
Right of access: The right of access allows you to obtain information about the personal data we process and certain other information (such as that contained in this privacy policy);
Right to rectification of data: you have the right to rectify your personal data if it is incorrect or incomplete;
Right to erasure: On the basis of the so-called 'right to be forgotten', you may request the erasure of your personal data, unless there is an obligation to retain it. The right to erasure is not a right that applies without exception. For example, we have the right to further process your personal data if such processing is necessary for the fulfilment of our legal obligations or for the investigation, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Right to restrict processing: This right includes restricting the use itself or the way in which personal data is used. This right is limited to certain cases and in particular applies if: (a) the data are incorrect; (b) the processing is unlawful and you refuse to delete the data; (c) we no longer need the data, but you need it to assert, exercise or defend against legal claims. If processing is restricted, the data may still be stored by us but not used. We maintain a list of individuals who have exercised their right to restrict processing to ensure compliance with this restriction.
Right to data portability: This right means that, as far as technically possible, we transfer your personal data in a structured, commonly used machine-readable format for your own purposes;
The right to withdraw the consent given: although you have given your consent to processing, you have the right to withdraw it at any time. The fact that you withdraw your consent shall not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of consent given up to the time of withdrawal.
Exercising these rights is free of charge for the user. However, two-factor authentication is required for this purpose. In accordance with our statutory obligations, we will make every effort to transfer, rectify or delete your personal data on our systems.
In order to exercise your rights, you should contact our company by e-mail or by post. The contact details can be found in section A.
The user has the possibility to lodge an objection with the Data Protection Officer referred to in this privacy policy (see Part A for contact details) or with the supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State where the user lives, works or where the alleged infringement was committed.
