Your privacy rights

According to these regulations, you have a right to be informed regarding your stored personal data, the purpose of any data processing, transfer of data to other places and the duration of the storage.

You may also receive extracts or copies to exercise your right of access. If data is incorrect or no longer required for the purposes for which it was collected, you may request that the data is corrected, deleted or restricted. You may also view your data yourself and correct it if necessary, paying accordance to the correct procedures.
If you have questions about your rights, please contact the company.

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is based on a legitimate interest of the enterprise acc. to Art.6 Abs.1 f) GDPR.

A legitimate interest may arise, for example, for internal organizational and administrative purposes, for the protection of facilities, assets, and assets of the enterprise as well as the data processing plants and data. A processing of your data is permitted here, if the protection of your interests, fundamental rights, and fundamental freedoms do not prevail.

In individual cases, we can also obtain your consent to the processing or transmission of your data. Your consent in these cases is voluntary and may be revoked by you, unless otherwise agreed, for the future at any time. From a non-consent or a possible later revocation of a consent, you will not incur any disadvantages.

Transmission of your personal information

Your personal data will be transmitted or disclosed to external agencies only insofar as this is prescribed by a legal standard or required to fulfil a contractual relationship involving you (eg tax authorities, banks, auditors) or on the part of Bright Green Partners or an external agency who has a legitimate interest in the above sense and when the transmission is permitted under the data protection regulations.

Your personal data and information may also be disclosed by Bright Green Partners to authorized agents and contractors who provide a service for us, including insurers and consultants, for legitimate purposes, insofar as this is permitted in individual cases under the provisions of data protection law. If your consent or separate information is required for this, we will first obtain your consent or inform you in good time beforehand. Your personal data can also be transferred to service companies for the purpose of carrying out data processing tasks, e.g. for carrying out automated personal data processing or payroll accounting. We will observe the data protection regulations.

For this purpose, specially defined places have limited access rights to your data. A data transfer or disclosure of your data is only to the extent necessary for this purpose in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations. As far as a data transmission in third countries or a revelation to places in third countries takes place, for this, the additional prerequisites are considered. In accordance with these regulations, Bright Green Partners and the processing body have concluded a contract according to the GDPR according to the EU standard contractual clauses.
On the basis of such agreement, the central processing of personal data complies with data protection legislation.

Responsible body for the processing of your personal data

The competent and responsible body for the collection, processing, and use of your personal data is Bright Green Partners B.V. in the Netherlands unless other contractual agreements have been made.

The personal data is stored and processed in personal data processing systems. The technical installation is designed so that only a narrow circle of authorized persons is authorized to access and any other access or other notice of the data according to the state of the art is excluded.

Complaints about the processing of your personal data
