6. Business partners

The following information on data protection applies to you when you contact us during contract negotiations and/or if there is a contractual relationship between you and us and we process personal data in this context. The information we process depends on the agreed services, which is why not all parts of this information may be relevant to you.

How do we collect personal data and what categories of personal data do we use?

As a rule, we only collect those personal data which are transferred to us.

However, it may be necessary to process personal data we receive from other companies, authorities or other third parties, such as credit agencies, tax authorities or the like. These may also include personal data we obtain via our information channels concerning possible compliance breaches or in connection with compliance investigations.

Relevant personal data may include: personal details (e.g. first and last name, address and other contact details, date and place of birth as well as nationality) identification and authentication information (register excerpt, identity card information), information as part of our business relationship (e.g. payment details), information on solvency, information on corporate and ownership structures, photos and videos (e.g. on delivery of goods) and other comparable information.

Purpose / Legal basis of data processing:

Performance of a contract (point (b) of Article 6 (1) GDPR)

The purpose of the processing is to take measures that are necessary to enter into a contract and to subsequently meet the obligations under the contract entered into.

Compliance with a legal obligation (point (c) of Article 6 (1) GDPR)

Your personal data may be processed for the purpose of complying with a legal obligation. Such legal obligations include compliance with retention and identification requirements, for example in the context of anti-money laundering, tax-related supervisory and notification requirements and data processing in the context of requests from authorities.

Pursuit of legitimate interests (point (f) of Article 6 (1) GDPR)

It may be necessary to process your personal data beyond the actual performance of a contract. In these cases, legitimate interests include selecting appropriate business partners, asserting legal claims, defending against liability claims, physical and data access control, investigating compliance breaches, preventing criminal acts and settling claims arising from the business relationship.

Upon entering into the contract, we sometimes collect information on your solvency via credit agencies. Such information is used to assess your creditworthiness. Credit agencies store information they receive from banks or companies, for example. Such information includes, in particular, name, date of birth, address and payment behaviour. You can obtain information on the data stored concerning you directly from the credit agencies.

Recipients / Categories of recipients:

Within our company, your personal data are transferred to those departments that need them to comply with contractual or legal obligations or to pursue legitimate interests. Within the scope of contractual relationships, we also employ processors or service providers that may have access to your personal data. In these cases, we ensure that the data protection regulations are observed by concluding data processing agreements.

Period of storage / Criteria used to determine the period of storage:

The personal data are stored by Meyer Logistics as long as necessary for the fulfilment of the above-mentioned purposes and in accordance with the applicable retention requirements.

Are you obliged to provide personal data?

Within the scope of our business relationship, you are obliged to provide those personal data which are necessary for the establishment, performance and termination of the business relationship and for compliance with the associated contractual obligations. You are also obliged to provide those personal data which we are legally required or authorised to collect on grounds of our legitimate interests. Without these data, we are usually not able to enter into a business relationship with you.

7. Recipients outside the EU:

Any transfer of personal data to recipients outside the European Economic Area (EEA) only takes place if the European Commission has confirmed that the third country ensures an adequate level of protection, if an adequate level of protection is ensured (e.g. by means of EU standard data protection clauses) or if you have given us your consent.
