Private Policy

The protection of your personal data is important to us. In collecting, processing and using data, we strictly adhere to the regulations and legal bases of the Federal Data Protection Act (refer also to https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/bdsg_1990/) and to the Telemedia Act (refer also to https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/tmg/). By using our website you permit us to collect particular data about you. Below is some information about the type of data which is collected when you visit our homepage and how this data is used.

As a user of the website http://www.dental-island.com/ you can, in principle, see the full contents of the webpage without entering any personal data. Provided that you as a user, (hereinafter called "person concerned") would like to take advantage of certain services (e.g. appointment or contact forms) via our website, it may, however, become necessary to process personal data (see also Section 4. Collection of data and information).

When processing personal data (e.g. name, date of birth, address, email address or phone number) of a person concerned, we always adhere to the General Data Protection Regulation (see also https://dsgvo-gesetz.de), as well as the professional code applicable to us and the country-specific data protection regulations. Our intention in issuing this data policy is to inform persons concerned about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data collected and processed by us. Furthermore, we inform all users of our website about their rights in connection with the data processing carried out by our clinic.

In addition, we as the entity responsible for data processing consider it our obligation, with the assistance of several technical and organisational measures, to ensure that the user of the website http://www.dental-island.com/ is guaranteed protection which is as complete as possible with regard to the personal data processed through this website. In principle, internet-based data transmissions can have security gaps any time, and this means that we cannot guarantee absolute protection. For this reason it is up to each user concerned to transmit personal data to us via alternative means also, for example by telephone.

3. Collection of data and information

Handling of personal data

Personal data is information that can be used to identify a person, i.e. information that can be traced back to a person. This includes name, email address or telephone number. We only collect, use and pass on personal data if this is legally permissible or if the person concerned consents to having their data collected. In principle, you can visit our website without leaving behind any personal data. In some cases, however, we need data from you, and precisely in the following situations:

  • • Appointment form
  • • Contact form

On no account shall the collected data be sold or passed on to third parties for other reasons.

Collection and processing of non-personal data (access data/ server log files)

Every time a person concerned accesses our website, that is to say, every time a file is accessed or an attempt is made to access a file on this server, data is saved about this process in a log file (server log file) with the Webspace provider. This data is not personal and we cannot know, which user retrieved which data.

Specifically, the following record is kept about every access to the website:

  • • Name of the file retrieved
  • • Date and time of retrieval
  • • Amount of data transferred
  • • Report on whether the retrieval was successful
  • • Report on why retrieval possibly failed
  • • Your computer’s operating system and browser software
  • • Referrer URL (the last visited page)
  • • Host name of the accessing computer (IP-address)

Purpose of data processing

All the data mentioned is evaluated only for statistical analysis, for business and security purposes and for the optimisation of services offered by us and by service providers contracted by us. The anonymous data in the server log files is stored separately from all personal data. Additional personal data is only collected if you are providing this information voluntarily, e.g. in connection with an enquiry. We use this data to constantly improve our website and services to you. However, the provider reserves the right to check the protocol data afterwards if, based on concrete evidence, there is justifiable reason to believe that illegal access took place.

Data processing is performed in accordance with legal requirements and regulations in order to fulfill the treatment contract between you and us and the associated obligations. For this we process your personal data, in particular your health insurance and health data. These include u.a. Anamnesis, biographical data, diagnoses, therapies and therapy suggestions as well as findings that we or other doctors collect. For this purpose, other physicians, psychotherapists, hospitals, rehab clinics, or review centers that you are treating may also provide us with data (for example, in findings reports, medical reports). The collection of health data is a prerequisite and basis for your treatment. If the necessary information is not provided, careful and dutiful treatment can not be provided - if necessary, emergency care.

Recipient of your data

We only transfer your personal data to third parties if this is permitted by law, is necessary in emergency situations or is made possible by your consent (for example, declaration of secrecy, implied action). Recipients of your personal data may be pharmacists, other physicians, psychotherapists, statutory health insurance associations, health insurance, pension insurance (eg rehabilitation, retirement), MDK, offices (eg provision office, employment office, social office, health department), courts (eg Supervision Court, Social Court), medical associations (eg arbitration boards), insurance companies (eg accident insurance, life insurance), schools and employers (eg AU certificates), carers and authorized representatives, etc. The transmission takes place predominantly for the purpose of the account of the achievements accomplished with you, for the clarification of medical and from your insurance relationship resulting questions. In individual cases, the transmission of data to other authorized recipients takes place.

4. Contact options through the website

The website of the clinic Dental Island contains buttons which enable you to quickly contact our clinic electronically, which among other things requires you to indicate an email address. The personal data transmitted by persons concerned on a voluntary basis via a contact form or by email are stored automatically by us exclusively for purposes of processing or contacting the person concerned. All personal data collected will on no account be passed on to third parties.

5. Data protection for digital applications

Application documents and personal data transmitted electronically (e.g. by email or through an integrated application form) shall be processed further exclusively for purposes of completing the application procedure. If in the end an employment contract comes into being between the person responsible for the processing and the applicant, the transmitted data will be stored under full consideration of the legal regulations. If no employment contract comes into being, all transmitted data will be deleted by the person responsible for its processing after announcement of the decision to reject the application, provided that there are no other legitimate interests of the person responsible for processing that run contrary to the deletion. Another legitimate interest in this sense is for example the burden of proof in court proceedings according to the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

6. Use of cookies

The website of the clinic Dental Island uses cookies. Cookies are small text files which are filed through an internet browser and stored on a computer system.

7. Deletion and blocking of personal data

Our clinic stores personal data of the person concerned only for as long as it is required for the attainment of the storage purpose, or for as long as provided for by European statutory provisions, the competent supervisory authority or other applicable German laws.

If the storage purpose ceases to exist or the authorised deadline expires, the personal data will be deleted as a matter of routine and in accordance with legal regulations.

The contacted employee will see to it that the request for deletion is immediately complied with.

e) Right to limitation of data processing
The person concerned has the right in accordance with Article 18 of the General Data Protection Regulation to demand of the person responsible that the processing of his personal data be limited if one of the following conditions exists:

  • the accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
  • the processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests the restriction of their use instead;
  • the controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by the data subject for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;

Furthermore, the person concerned has the right, according to Article 20(2) of the General Data Protection Regulation, when exercising his right to data transferability as per Article 20(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation, to authorise that his personal data be transmitted directly from one person responsible to another, as long as this is technically feasible and provided that the rights and liberties of other persons are not affected by this (Article 20(4) of the General Data Protection Regulation).

In a move to assert the right to data transferability, the person concerned can get in touch with the data protection officer appointed by the clinic Dental Island or any other employee of our clinic any time.

g) Right to object to data processing
The person concerned has the right, pursuant to Article 21 of the General Data Protection Regulation, for reasons arising from his particular situation, to raise objection any time against the processing of his personal data, which is being carried out on the basis of Article 6(1) e or f of the General Data Protection Regulation. This also applies to any kind of profiling based on these regulations.

In the case of the objection, the clinic Dental Island will henceforth stop processing the personal data, unless we can prove that there are compelling and legitimate reasons for the processing, which outweigh the interests, rights and liberties of the person concerned, or unless the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.

If the clinic Dental Island processes personal data so as to conduct direct advertising, the person concerned has the right, according to Article 21(2) of the General Data Protection Regulation, to raise objection any time against the processing of personal data for such advertising purposes. This also applies to any kind of profiling, as long as it is connected with such direct advertising. If the person concerned raises objection against the clinic Dental Island because of processing data for direct advertising purposes the clinic Dental Island will henceforth stop processing personal data for such purposes (Article 21(3) of the General Data Protection Regulation).

Furthermore, the person concerned has the right, pursuant to Article 21(6) of the General Data Protection Regulation, for reasons arising from his particular situation, to raise objection any time against the processing of his personal data, which is being carried at the clinic Dental Island for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes as per Article 89(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation, unless such processing is required for the fulfilment of a task which is of public interest.

To assert the right to objection, the person concerned can get in touch with the data protection officer at the clinic Dental Island or any other employee. Furthermore, the person concerned is at liberty to exercise his right to objection through automated methods - for which technical specifications are used - in connection with the use of services of the information society, Directive 2002/58/EG notwithstanding.

h) Automated decisions on a case-by-case basis including profiling
Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, under Article 22 of the General Data Protection Regulation, not to be subjected to a decision based exclusively on automated processing - including profiling - which will have legal repercussions over him or adversely affect him in a similar way, provided that the decision (1) is not required for the conclusion or the fulfilment of a contract between the person concerned and the person responsible, or (2) is permissible, due to legal provisions of the European Union or of the member states, to which the person responsible is subject, and these legal provisions contain adequate measures for the preservation of the rights and liberties as well as the legitimate interests of the person concerned, or (3) is taken with the express consent of the person concerned.

11. Privacy Policy for use of Facebook

On our pages plugins of the social network Facebook are integrated. The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. Persons responsible for the processing of personal data, if an affected person lives outside the US or Canada, are Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbor, Dublin 2, Ireland.

The Facebook plugins can be recognized by the Facebook logo or the "Like-Button" ("Like") on our site. An overview of the Facebook plugins can be found here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.

When you visit our pages, the plugin establishes a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook server. Facebook receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. If you click on the Facebook "Like-Button" while you are logged into your Facebook account, you can link the contents of our pages to your Facebook profile.

12. Data protection regulations for use of Google Analytics (with anonymization function)

This website uses Google Analytics (with anonymization function), a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Web analysis refers to the generation, collection and evaluation of data about user behaviour and the use of individual internet pages. This data usually consists, among other things, of the so-called Referrer URL, which is the address from where the person concerned came to access our website, as well as information about the use of individual sub-pages (e.g. an overview of the web pages visited, the frequency of the visits as well as the time spent on these sites). Web analysis is mainly used to optimise an internet page and for purposes of cost-benefit-analysis. The clinic that runs Google Analytics component is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain view, CA 94043-1351, USA.

The data generated is used by Google to compile online reports about the activities on our web pages and to render further services connected with the use of our internet pages, in addition to the evaluation of the traffic on our website.

Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", which are text files that are stored on your digital terminal (e.g. computer or smartphone), and enable the analysis of your use of the website (refer also to Section 7. Use of cookies). The information about your use of this website generated through the cookie (including your IP address) will be transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. If you activate IP anonymization on this website, Google will, however, truncate your IP address prior to this within European Union member states or in other states that are party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The full IP address will only be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there in exceptional cases.

In addition, the internet browser on the digital device of the person concerned automatically transmits data to Google for purposes of online analysis, and this happens every time you access a sub-page on this web page which contains an integrated Google Analytics component. Through this technical process in the background of the visited web page, Google gains knowledge of some personal data, like the IP-address of the person concerned. Google uses this specific data to compile reports about the traffic on the website (e.g. the origin of the visitors and number of clicks) and to render other services connected with the use of the website and the Internet on behalf of the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser to Google Analytics will not be merged with other data by Google.

The storage of the cookies described above on the digital terminal of the person concerned, enables personal information like the access time, the place from which access was made and the frequency of the visits, as well as the IP-address of the Internet connection used by the person concerned, to be transmitted to Google in the United States of America and to be stored there, whenever a person visits our internet pages. Under some circumstances Google also passes this personal data collected through technical methods to third parties.

The person concerned can prevent the storage of cookies on his computer by our internet page any time by making an appropriate adjustment in the browser software used and in that way permanently reject the storage of cookies. However, we wish to point out at this moment that the person concerned may not be able to use all the functions of this website. Such an adjustment in the settings of the browser software used would also prevent Google from storing cookies on the digital device of the person concerned. In addition, a cookie already stored by Google Analytics can be deleted any time afterwards through the browser software or other software programmes.

You can also prevent the transmission of data (including your IP address) generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available via the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. The installation of the browser add-on is taken as objection by Google, thus allowing JavaScript to prevent the transmission of data and information concerning visits to Internet sites to Google Analytics. If, at a later stage, data on the digital terminal of the person concerned is deleted, the terminal formatted or programmes re-installed, the person concerned must install the browser add-on afresh so as to deactivate Google Analytics. As long as the browser add-on was uninstalled or deactivated by the person concerned or by another person with the same powers, there is always a possibility of re-installing or reactivating it any time.

Further information and the applicable data protection regulations from Google can be viewed at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html. You can get a more detailed explanation regarding Google Analytics through the following link https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/analytics/.

13. Google+

On our pages plugins of the social network Google+ are integrated. Google+ operating company is the Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. The Google plugins can be recognized by the Google+ logo on our site. When you visit our pages, the plugin establishes a direct connection between your browser and the Google server. Google receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. We point out that we as the provider of the pages are not aware of the content of the transmitted data and their use by Google. For more information, see the Google Privacy Policy at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/. If you do not want Google to associate visits to our pages with your Google user account, please log out of your Google user account.

14. Children & adolescents

Persons concerned who have not yet exceeded 18 years of age should not transmit any personal data to us without the consent of the parents or guardians. Generally, we do not demand any personal data on our websites from children and adolescents, we do not collect any such data and do not pass it on to third parties.

15. Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the processing operations, for which we obtain consent for a particular processing purpose, is provided for in the case of our comapny by Article 6(1) a of the General Data Protection Regulation

If the processing of personal data is based on the fulfilment of a contract between the person responsible and the person concerned, as is the case, for example, with processing operations which are necessary for rendering of a service or return service, the processing shall be based on Article 6(1) b of the General Data Protection Regulation. The same applies to processing operations which are required for carrying out pre-contractual measures.

If the processing of personal data becomes necessary through a legal obligation by our practice (e.g. fulfilment of tax duties), then the processing shall be based on Article 6(1) c of the General Data Protection Regulation.

In addition, a situation could arise within our clinic which requires the processing of personal data to protect essential interests of the person concerned or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were to be injured in our clinic and consequently his name, age, health insurance clinic data or other essential personal information would of necessity be passed on to a doctor, a hospital or other third parties. In this case the processing would be based on Article 6(1) d of the General Data Protection Regulation.

Lastly, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1) f of the General Data Protection Regulation. Processing operations can be based on this legal foundation, if the processing is required for the preservation of the legitimate interests of our practice or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and basic liberties of the person concerned do not predominate, particularly when the person concerned is a child. To that end, the European legislator is here of the view that a legitimate interest could be accepted, if the person concerned is a customer of the person responsible (Recital 47, Clause 2 of the General Data Protection Regulation).

16. Legitimate interests in the processing that are being pursued by the person responsible or a third party

If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) f of the General Data Protection Regulation, our legitimate interest is the execution of our commercial activity for the welfare of our employees and our shareholders.

17. Storage period for personal data

The storage period for personal data is regulated by the respective legal retention period. If this deadline expires, the collected data is deleted as a matter of routine, provided that it is no longer required as a component in the fulfilment or initiation of a contract.

We will only store your personal information for as long as necessary to carry out the treatment. Due to legal requirements, we are obliged to keep this data for at least 10 years after completion of the treatment. Other regulations may lead to longer storage periods, for example 30 years for X-ray recordings according to Section 28 (3) of the X-ray Ordinance.

19. Information for obligatory provision of personal data by the person concerned

At this point we would like to inform you that the legislator partly dictates the provision of personal data (e.g. tax regulations) or that the provision of data can arise from contractual provisions (e.g. details of the contracting party). For example, if the person concerned concludes a contract with our clinic, he is obliged to provide us with personal data. If this data is not provided to us for the completion of a contract, the contract with our clinic would possibly not take place. The person concerned can get in touch with our datat protection officer any time before providing us with his personal data, and this specialist would gladly explain to him one-on-one whether the provision of the personal data is a legal or contractual requirement. In addition, we shall explain to the person concerned whether the provision of the personal data is binding in the individual case and what consequences the non-provision of the data would have.

19. Existence of an automated decision maker

As a responsible clinic we refrain from using an automatic decision maker or profiling.

20. Legal validity and governing law

This privacy policy should be viewed as part of our Internet presence, from where reference was made to this page. Provided that parts or individual statements of this privacy policy should not, no longer or not completely correspond to the current legal position, the contents and validity of the other parts of the document shall remain unaffected. German law shall apply. This governing law only applies to consumers in as far as the protection granted by mandatory regulations of the law of the state where the consumer ordinarily stays is not withdrawn (Favourability Principle).
