With whom are we allowed to share your data?

External service providers (processors): We comply with legal and contractual obligations. In our society, which is based on the division of labour, the necessary data processing is often carried out by specialised companies, so-called service providers (processors).

Therefore, we transmit your personal data to these companies to the extent necessary for the respective service provision.

Our processors are carefully audited without exception and on a regular basis. Legally compliant contracts guarantee the secure processing of your data without gaps.

Your data may be transferred to the following processors for the purpose of maintaining the Supplier Portal:

QAD Europe GmbH

SVISS GmbH

 

Data transfers outside the EU or EEA:

All information you submit to us is stored on servers within the European Union. In the case of the provision of services for ARAS Kargo, your data will be transferred to Turkey. The legal basis for the transfer of personal data outside the European Union is your explicit consent. In these cases, the security of your personal data is furthermore ensured after a documented case-by-case assessment by concluding EU standard data protection clauses (appropriate guarantee pursuant to Art 46 GDPR) with ARAS Kargo. These standard data protection clauses are available on request at post.at/other-data-protection-requests.
