All information published by the DMV on its website is for information purposes only. Commercial use by third parties is not permitted.

Personal data is information that can be used to find out personal or factual circumstances about you. Information where we cannot (or only with disproportionate effort) establish a link to your person, e.g. by pseudonymizing or anonymizing the information, is not personal data.

You can visit our website without providing any personal data. We only store access data without personal reference, such as the name of your Internet service provider, the website from which you visit us or the name of the requested file. This data is evaluated solely to improve our offer and does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your person.

Certain services on the DMV website may require the collection and processing of personal data. This will only take place if you agree to the validity of our privacy policy and the corresponding use of your data. We use your personal data for the following purposes:

User account

If, despite our efforts to ensure that your personal data is correct and up to date, we have stored incorrect data, we will correct it immediately at your request. If you wish the stored data to be deleted, this deletion will also take place immediately upon your request.

If we collect personal data, we store it on specially protected servers in Germany or in the European Union. Access to this data is only possible for a few specially authorized persons who are involved in technical, commercial or editorial support. In order to prevent the loss or misuse of data, we take extensive technical and operational security precautions, which are regularly reviewed and adapted to technical progress. However, we would like to point out that due to the structure of the Internet, it is possible that the rules of data protection and the above-mentioned security measures may not be observed by other persons or institutions outside our area of responsibility. In particular, unencrypted data - even if it is sent by e-mail - can be read by third parties. We have no technical influence over this. It is the responsibility of the user to protect the data provided by him/her against misuse by encryption or in any other way.

We use "cookies" (small files with configuration information). These are used in particular to make it easier and more convenient for you to visit our website. For example, the notepad function creates a cookie with the ID of the saved company / job / trade fair / keyword. This information is only exchanged between the site and the user's browser. It is also possible to use our website without cookies. Most browsers are preset to accept cookies automatically. However, you can deactivate the storage of cookies or set your browser so that it notifies you before cookies are stored.

We observe the principle of earmarked data use and collect, process and store your personal data only for the purposes for which you have provided it to us. Your personal data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent, unless this is necessary for the performance of the contract. The transfer to state institutions and authorities entitled to receive information only takes place within the framework of the legal obligation to provide information or if we are obliged to provide information by a court decision. Our employees have been obliged by us to maintain confidentiality and to comply with data protection regulations.

The transfer of your data to the credit institution commissioned with the payment is necessary for the execution of the contract. When paying by credit card via HeidelPay or by direct debit via HeidelPay or by DebitCard via HeidelPay, we pass on your payment data to Heidelberger Payment GmbH, Vangerowstr. 18, D-69115 Heidelberg, as part of the payment processing.

If we make advance payments, e.g. when purchasing on account, we may obtain credit information based on mathematical-statistical procedures from SCHUFA Holding AG, Kormoranweg 5, 65201 Wiesbaden, Germany, in order to safeguard our legitimate interests. For this purpose, we transmit the personal data required for a credit check to SCHUFA Holding AG and use the information received on the statistical probability of a payment default for a balanced decision on the establishment, execution or termination of the contractual relationship. The credit report may contain probability values (SCORE values) that are calculated on the basis of scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical procedures and whose calculation includes address data. Your interests worthy of protection are taken into account in accordance with the statutory provisions.

If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if this occurs in the context of the use of third-party services or disclosure or transfer of data to third parties, this will only take place if it is done to fulfill our (pre)contractual obligations, on the basis of your consent, on the basis of a legal obligation or on the basis of our legitimate interests. Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we only process or have the data processed in a third country if the special requirements of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR are met. This means, for example, that the processing takes place on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognized determination of a level of data protection corresponding to the EU or compliance with officially recognized special contractual obligations.
