XI. NOTICES TO RESIDENTS OF CERTAIN JURISDICTIONS

Residents of the European Union and the United Kingdom.
If you are a resident of the European Union ("EU") or the United Kingdom ("UK"), you may have certain additional rights as set out below. For the purposes of this Notice, "personal data" has the meaning ascribed to it in the EU General Data Protection Regulation.

BASES AND CONSEQUENCES OF DATA PROCESSING

We base the processing of your personal data on the following legal bases:

• To perform a contract we have entered into with you.
• To comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject (such as tax obligations and where we are required to comply with lawful requests from competent authorities, such as law enforcement agencies).
• For the purposes of our legitimate interests, provided that such processing does not outweigh your rights and freedoms.

Processing may also be carried out in accordance with other applicable legal bases for data processing, in particular rules established by the law of a Member State. If a legal basis as described above would not apply to our processing of your personal data, we will obtain your consent for the specific purpose in accordance with applicable law.

YOUR RIGHTS

Where a specific element of our processing of your personal data is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time with future effect. Such withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of the processing prior to the withdrawal of consent. Section VI of the Privacy Policy describes the options we offer you to simply refuse or withdraw your consent.

If you object to the processing of your personal data, please contact us. Please contact us by email at datenschutzbeauftragter@mswberlin.de or by post at: datenschutzbeauftragter@mswberlin.de oder per Post an:

If you do not provide us with certain personal data, we may not be able to fulfil the requested purpose of obtaining information, such as answering your enquiries or providing you with our websites. However, unless otherwise stated, there will be no legal consequences for you if you do not provide your personal data.

Additional data protection rights: Below is information about additional rights you may have under applicable law.

Please note that these rights may be restricted under applicable law. Find out how you can exercise these rights here.

Please note that we may need to retain certain information for record-keeping purposes, or to carry out transactions that you initiated prior to your request, or for other purposes as required or permitted under applicable law.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER

Personal data may be transferred to and processed by recipients located within or outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"). In the case of recipients outside the EEA, some are certified under the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, while others are located in countries with adequacy decisions. In each case, the transfer thus takes place with an adequate level of data protection from the perspective of European data protection law. Other recipients may be located in countries that do not offer an adequate level of protection from the perspective of European data protection law. In such cases, we will make the transfer on the basis of appropriate safeguards, such as standard data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission or a supervisory authority. You can request a copy of such security measures.
