Object of data protection

The object of data protection is the protection of personal data. This is any information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person (so- called data subject). This includes details such as name, postal address, e-mail address or telephone number, but also other information that arises in the course of using our Porsche Digital Service Infrastructure and vehicle usage data.

Purposes of and legal grounds for data processing

This General Privacy Policy provides you with the following overview of the purposes and legal bases of data processing in the context of registering, creating and using your Porsche ID user account and booking and using our services on the basis of your Porsche ID user account. We process personal data in any case in accordance with the legal requirements, even if a different legal basis should apply than stated below in individual cases.
We process your personal data in particular if this is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or for the performance of pre-contractual measures that take place at your request. Data is processed on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (b) GDPR. The purposes of the processing include enabling the use of our specific products and services within the services as explained below.
We also process your personal data, insofar as this is necessary, to comply with legal obligations to which we are subject. The data processing takes place on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (c) of the GDPR. The obligations may result, for example, from the commercial, tax, money laundering, financial or criminal law. The purposes of processing arise from the respective legal obligation; the processing generally serves the purpose of complying with state obligations with regard to monitoring and duty of disclosure. In this respect, too, you will find more detailed information below.
The provision of personal data by you may be required by law or contract when using the services or may be necessary for the conclusion of a contract. We will inform you separately if you are obliged to provide personal data and what the possible consequences of not doing so would be (e.g. a loss of claims or our advice not to provide the requested service without providing certain information).

Porsche ID user account

Registration and creation of a Porsche ID user account on My Porsche is required for full use of the Porsche Digital Service Infrastructure and the services offered under it. Once you have successfully completed registration and created your Porsche ID user account, you will also receive your Porsche ID (user name of the Porsche ID user account), with which you will be able to log in to all Porsche ID interfaces linked with your password or the QR code. When registering and creating and using your Porsche ID user account, personal data is processed and, if necessary, transmitted to third parties as described below in order to fulfil our contractual obligations in this context. Unless otherwise stated, we carry out all processing operations described in this section in order to fulfil our contract with you on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1(b) GDPR.

4.1 Registration process and creation of a Porsche ID user account
There are two methods to choose from in order to register and create your Porsche ID user account:
4.1.1 Invitation by authorised dealers
If you wish, your authorised dealer will enter the personal data you have provided to them on our systems for you via their access. You will then receive, for example, an e-mail with a link which you must use to confirm your registration and creation of your Porsche ID user account. Please note that the authorised dealers are independent companies and we have no influence over them. A second feature allows you to additionally verify your identity, for example via an SMS code, which you then enter during  the process of registering and creating your Porsche ID user account.

4.1.2 Self-registration

In the event that the registration and creation of your Porsche ID user account was not carried out via an authorised dealer, you can register and create your Porsche ID user account yourself and enter your personal data independently. In selected countries you can also add a vehicle and use other digital services that require vehicle ownership. You must also upload a copy of an identification document and proof of ownership and, in case you are not the owner of the vehicle, a power of attorney from the vehicle owner
after entering your vehicle identification number. These documents are forwarded to Porsche Connect Support or, in countries where the official language is not supported by Porsche Connect Support, directly to the dealer selected by you and are then checked locally using our verification criteria. As proof of successful verification, we also save the names, dates and places of birth, and addresses shown in the relevant identification documents along with the validity dates of the documents, as well as the vehicle dentification numbers, owner names and addresses shown in the proof of ownership. After verification is complete, the copies of the documents will be deleted. Alternatively, you can use the video identification procedure for verification by our Porsche Connect Support. If you add a vehicle and a specific vehicle is therefore assigned to you in your Porsche ID user account, a vehicle relationship exists (hereinafter referred to as “vehicle relationship”).
After successful verification, you will receive, for example, an email with a link that you must use to confirm your registration and creation of your Porsche ID user account. A second feature allows you to additionally verify your identity, for example via a text message code that you then enter when registering and creating your Porsche ID user account.
Self-registration requires the upload of images from the terminal.
You will therefore be asked to grant permission for the app to access your device’s camera or photo library. Granting permission is voluntary. However, if you wish to use the self-registration function, you must grant the relevant permission, otherwise you will not be able to use the self-registration. Permission remains active unless you revoke it in your device and/or Internet browser by deactivating the relevant setting.
If your vehicle has already been linked to your Porsche ID by an Official Porsche Centre at your request using your email address and mobile phone number, a simplified creation process for the vehicle is possible instead via our website or the MyPorsche app. For this purpose, only the VIN entered by you and the contact data already stored by us are compared and a confirmation code is sent to you via SMS.

(a) Mandatory data when registering and creating a Porsche ID user account
When registering and creating your Porsche ID user account, you must – in the case of self-registration – enter your e-mail address, a password, your name and name affixes, contact and address data, mobile phone number, e-mail address and, if applicable, the language in which you wish to communicate with us or – in the case of registration and creation of your Porsche ID user account by an authorised dealer – confirm this personal data as part of the process of registering and creating your Porsche ID user account. This personal data is required to set up and manage your Porsche ID user account for you so that you can use the full range of our services as part of the Porsche Digital Service Infrastructure. In selected countries, you can also use our offer as an interested party. In this case, you only need to provide your name, e-mail address and a password. Last but not least, we also need this and possibly other personal data in order to be able to respond to requests, questions and criticism. We also save the time of your last log-in. When you register and create your Porsche ID user account, we check your name and address data by means of a plausibility check.

(b) Voluntary data when registering and creating a Porsche ID user account
When registering and creating your Porsche ID user account, you also have the option of entering additional voluntary details such as additional name information (e.g. academic title etc.), company contact details, date of birth, additional telephone numbers, credit card information (this is only stored by the payment service provider) as well as your vehicle registration number and a personal vehicle name. In addition, you can provide information about your interests, preferences and the contact channels you  would like to use. Please note that this information is not required when registering and creating your Porsche ID user account and that you alone decide whether you want to disclose this personal data to us.

4.1.3 Integration of the Porsche ID into third-party offers
We may enable cooperation partners to offer a registration and login procedure involving the Porsche ID. This means that you do not have to remember any new login data for the third-party offer. If you decide to use the registration and login procedure involving the Porsche ID as part of the third-party offer, you will be redirected to the PSM GmbH login/registration screen for the Porsche ID. Here you log in with your user name and password for the Porsche ID. We will then send a message to our cooperation partner that you have successfully registered. As part of the registration and login process, you can confirm to us that the cooperation partner may access the profile data of your Porsche ID user account. This then also applies to the payment data stored there, if applicable. This means that you do not have to re-enter or maintain your profile data
and, if applicable, payment data (e.g. if your address changes) in order to create your user profile for the third-party offer. Conversely, changes to the profile data in the user account of the third-party offer are then also synchronised accordingly in your user account for the Porsche ID. The data processing within the scope of the registration and login procedure with the integration of the Porsche ID is carried out on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (b) and (f) GDPR in order to register you with your user account for the third-party offer or to identify you when you register. In addition to carrying out your desired procedure, we are interested in making the registration and application process efficient and convenient. We are jointly responsible for this with our cooperation partner and, in relation to the process, we jointly determine the purposes and means of processing personal data. In an agreement on joint responsibility, we have defined, pursuant to GDPR Article 26, the respective tasks and responsibilities in the processing of personal data and the responsible parties to fulfil data protection obligations. In particular, we have defined how an appropriate level of security and your rights as a data subject can be ensured, how we can jointly comply with information obligations under data protection law and how we can monitor potential data protection incidents. This also includes ensuring that we can fulfil our reporting and notification obligations. Insofar as you contact us, we will come to an agreement in accordance with the aforementioned agreement pursuant to GDPR Article 26 in order to answer your enquiry and guarantee your data subject rights.

4.2 Porsche Digital Service Infrastructure: data processing after registration and creation of your Porsche ID user account

If you have registered and created your Porsche ID user account, we will, in order to fulfil the contract with you on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (b) GDPR, exchange basic information about your Porsche ID user account and your vehicles with responsible Porsche dealers in order to be able to serve you via our dealer organisation. In addition to the vehicle identification number, we transfer your user name (Porsche ID), the technical or sales availability of services and product offers for your Porsche ID user account or vehicle, as well as relevant events as part of the creation, modification or deletion of your Porsche ID user account, the linking of vehicles, the selection of traders, or the activation or deactivation of services.
If you have selected an authorised dealer and provided your consent, your personal data stored in your Porsche ID user account, in particular contact data, support,  contractual and service data, as well as data about your interests, vehicles and services used will also be exchanged with the authorized dealer and with synchronised with any personal data stored about you. If you no longer wish data to be transferred in the future, you can change this in the user settings of your Porsche ID user account accordingly. The aforementioned personal data will no longer be exchanged with the authorised dealer from that date. The applicable legal basis for this processing of your personal data is your consent pursuant to Article 6 Paragraph 1 (a) GDPR.
If you are waiting for your vehicle to be delivered, we will provide you with information on the delivery status in your Porsche ID user account. To do this, we will share the VIN of your vehicle and your Porsche ID with Porsche AG. The applicable legal basis for the processing of your personal data is the fulfilment of our contract with you on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (b) GDPR.

4.3 Deletion of your Porsche ID user account
If you delete your Porsche ID user account, your personal data stored in your Porsche ID user account will also be deleted when the contractual relationship ends, but upon expiration of your existing service licenses at the earliest. As far as data must be stored for legal reasons, these are blocked (so-called limitation of processing). The personal data is for further use, especially for the use of services, and then is no longer available. The functionality of the services may be limited or eliminated. The full use of the Porsche Digital Service Infrastructure will then also no longer be available to you. If further responsible individuals within the Porsche Group and its sales organisation process personal data within their own responsibility, the processing of this personal data remains unaffected. If, on the basis of your consent pursuant to Article 6 Paragraph 1 (a) GDPR, personal data has been exchanged with a dealer of your choice, we inform the dealer about the deletion of your Porsche ID user account.

Central services

5.1 Booking and activating services, handling payment information
You can book individual or several My Porsche services and Porsche Connect services and activate service licences. When selecting the respective service or service package, you can also view the respective information on the processing of personal data within the scope of the services concerned under the offer details.
In order to carry out and fulfil a booking and the associated contractual relationship, we process, in addition to the respective booking information, your personal data collected during registration and creation of your Porsche ID user account. You can change your billing address before completing the booking process. In this case, we use the address data provided by you for invoicing and processing.
We use a payment service provider to process payments for our paid services and products within the framework of My Porsche, Porsche Connect and the Online Marketplace. For this purpose, we and the payment service provider used will process your credit car d information and the respective payment information. The payment service provider’s systems are used to manage your credit card information and to process payments. When you enter your credit card information, it is done directly via an input field from the payment service provider, which encrypts, stores and uses this information independently for your payments. The encrypted information is then transferred from Porsche / from us to the payment service provider, where it is stored and used for your payment. Our legal basis for processing your personal data in order
to process the payment is the fulfilment of the contract pursuant to Article 6 Paragraph 1(b) GDPR.

The payment service provider commissioned will process your customer and contact information (for example name, address, email address, Porsche Connect customer number, and if applicable, company and affiliates) and the vehicle identification number shown in the proof of ownership exclusively for the purpose of debtor management (including compliance checks, where legally required) and to carry out credit checks. The legal basis for processing the named personal data for the aforementioned purposes, in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 (c) of the GDPR, is the fulfilment of a legal obligation incumbent on us and, in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 (f) of the GDPR, our legitimate interest in appropriate accounts receivable management and credit controls, provided we are not subject to any legal obligation.

When purchasing through online shops, our payment service provider determines the fraud risk using customer data (e.g. name and identifier, sales history, etc.). The  transaction data is checked and examined for abnormalities (e.g. frequency of password changes, delivery address differing from the invoicing address). The legal basis for the processing of the mentioned personal data for the aforementioned purposes is, in accordance with GDPR Article 6 Paragraph 1 (b), the fulfilment of a contract, or, pursuant
to GDPR Article 6 Paragraph 1 (f), our legitimate interest in preventing fraud.
After completing the booking, you can activate the services. This saves the authorisation for use on the system side and updates the list of available services accordingly.
In order to use certain services (e.g. E-Charging offers), a personalised card (referred to as a Porsche ID Card, Porsche Charging Card) containing RFID chips is sent by post to numerous countries when a product is purchased. An identification number is stored on the card, which can be used to assign it to your Porsche ID user account. No personal data beyond the identification number, in particular your name or address, is stored digitally on the card itself. If the card is lost, you can block it within your Porsche ID user account.

After delivery, the Porsche ID card can be used directly with the supported infrastructure (e.g. public E-charging pedestals).
Unless stated otherwise, we carry out the processing described in this section for fulfilment of our contract with you on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (b) GDPR.

5.2 Using the My Porsche services and Porsche Connect services
Depending on the service, you can use the booked My Porsche services and Porsche Connect services in your vehicle (if available for your vehicle) via a radio network connection or via other terminal devices in My Porsche or in your Porsche Connect app and, if necessary, also from several or all access points. For this purpose, your vehicle or the respective end device connects to the Porsche Digital Service Infrastructure.

When you use the services booked via My Porsche or the Porsche Connect Store in your vehicle or on other devices, your personal data will be processed by us for the purpose of enabling the use of services, for support purposes and for other individually defined purposes. Unless otherwise stated, we will only process your personal data to the extent necessary to enable the relevant My Porsche service or Porsche Connect service to be used.
When using the individual My Porsche services or Porsche Connect services, the following categories of personal data, for example, may be processed, depending on the  specific functionality of the respective service:

  • Identification information, such as the vehicle identification number, your Porsche ID and device and system IDs of your end devices and mobile modules, which are required to identify your person, your end device or your vehicle for the purpose of establishing connections, using services or accessing content,
  • Authorisation information, which includes that the vehicle or the respective terminal device is activated for the respective Porsche Connect service and which can be linked to your personal data that you entered as part of the registration and creation of your Porsche ID user account,
  • Login information that is required if you want to use services from other providers that require a login in your vehicle or on additional end devices,
  • Communication information required to establish a connection between your vehicle and/or other terminal devices and our servers or with the servers of thirdparty content providers for Porsche Connect services,
  • Location and movement information, such as GPS or speed data, required in order to use location-related content,
  • Voice data that enables voice control and voice input in certain Porsche Connect services. Voice data is transmitted to us as a recording for the purpose of conversion to text from the vehicle or a terminal. The text then generated by a service provider is transmitted back to the vehicle and the recording is then deleted by us,
  • Contact data used in communication services, for example to send an e-mail or SMS,
  • Billing data such as an itemised bill from charging operations. If necessary, we will combine this information with your address and payment information for individual billing purposes,
  • Image/video data of your vehicle or its components
  • Other content that needs to be shared with us or with service providers in order to provide a service to you.

Detailed information on which personal data is processed within the scope of which service can be found in the respective service descriptions at <https ://connect-store.porsche.com/ie/en>/.
The following applies especially in the context of workshop visits and the associated use of online order extension:

In addition, the customer can release/approve additional repairs/repair extensions directly via the My Porsche Portal and/or the My Porsche App.

Unless otherwise stated here, in one of the Specific Privacy Policies or, where applicable, in the further Special Data Protection Notices of the respective service, we process your personal data in each case on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (b) GDPR in order to provide you with the services in this context and to perform the associated contractual relationship.

5.3 Use of third-party services
If you use the services of a third-party provider with whom you have your own contractual relationship, the content of these services may be displayed in your vehicle or on your terminal device and information may be exchanged between your vehicle or your terminal device and the respective service provider.
We have no influence on the data processing by this third-party provider or on the location of the data processing. Therefore, please inform yourself with the respective third-party provider about the type, scope and purpose of the processing of personal data with regard to the respective service in their separate data protection notices.
We transfer the necessary personal data to the relevant third-party provider on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (b) GDPR in order to fulfil the contract between you and us.

5.4 Porsche Contact Centre
You can use various communication channels to contact us, in particular the service hotline if you wish to contact us by telephone, but also e-mail or live chat. When you contact our Contact Centre, we will process your personal data insofar as this is necessary in order to provide the Contact Centre service and to process your request. It is possible that we may ask you to provide personal data that is required to prepare and organise contact in order to process your specific request. Without this data, we will not be able to process your inquiry or accede to your request. The purposes of processing arise specifically from your inquiry and the services you have booked. They cover in particular

  • The processing of inquiries from interested parties, customers and dealers in relation to products and services from Porsche Sales & Marketplace GmbH. This includes, for example,
  • Technical support services
  • Assistance when purchasing services or products
  • Answering general questions about Sales & Marketplace
  • Technical support for customers and dealers, in particular through the provision of a service hotline for telephone contact.

Data is processed on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (b) GDPR for the purpose of fulfilling the contract with you and implementing measures in advance of the contract.
We also process your personal data to comply with legal obligations to which we are subject. Obligations may arise, for example, from commercial, tax, telecommunications, money laundering, financial or criminal law. The purposes of processing arise from the respective statutory obligation; the processing generally serves the purpose of complying with state obligations with regard to monitoring and duty of disclosure.
Data is processed on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (c) or (e) GDPR. If we collect data on the basis of a legal obligation or in the public interest, you need to provide the personal data that is required to comply with the legal obligation. Without this, we might not be able to process your request or fulfil these obligations.
If you use support services in a Porsche Centre, your dealer can also retrieve this data. To facilitate this service, we also transmit the aforementioned data to the relevant dealer. In this case, we will process your personal data in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 (f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in facilitating customer service at your preferred point of contact or through your preferred dealer.

Safeguarding legitimate interests

We also process your personal data to protect the legitimate interests of us or third parties, unless your interests which require the protection of your personal data override these interests. Data is processed on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (f) GDPR. Processing for legitimate interest is carried out for the following purposes or to protect the following interests:

  • Further development of products, services and mentoring, as well as other measures for business transactions and process control,
  • Improvement of product quality, elimination of errors and disruption, etc. by analysing vehicle data and customer feedback,
  • Processing data on a central prospect and customer care platform, as well as in up and downstream systems for customer loyalty and sales purposes,
  • Settlement of guarantee and goodwill cases, processing of non-contractual questions and concerns from prospective customers and clients,
  • Needs analysis and customer segmentation, e.g. calculating and evaluating affinities, preferences and customer potentials,
  • Risk management and coordination of recall campaigns,
  • Credit assessment through data exchange with credit agencies (e.g. SCHUFA),
  • Ensuring the legally compliant handling, prevention of and protection against statutory violations (especially criminal offences), assertion of and defence against legal claims, internal and external compliance measures,
  • Ensuring availability, operation and security of technical systems, as well as technical data management.

When we send e-mails to customers and prospective customers, we may use commercially available technologies such as tracking pixels or click-through links. This allows us to analyse which or how many e-mails are delivered and/or rejected and/or opened. The latter is carried out in particular by tracking pixel. It is not possible to measure the opening rate of our e-mails in full using tracking pixels, for example, if you have deactivated the display of images in your e-mail programme. In this case, the e-mail will not be displayed completely. It is nevertheless still possible for us to determine whether an e-mail has been opened if you click on the text or graphic link in the e-mail. Using click-through links, we can analyse which links have been clicked in our e-mails and determine the interest in certain topics. If you click on the corresponding link, you will be guided through our separate analysis server before accessing the target page. Based on the analysis results, we can make e-mails more relevant, send them in a more targeted manner or prevent e-mails from being sent. If you do not want such information collected and tracked, do not click text or graphic links in e-mails.

We process your personal data on the basis of corresponding  consent. Data is processed on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 (a) GDPR. If you have given consent, this is always for a specific purpose; the purposes of processing arise from the respective content in your declaration of consent. You may revoke your consent at any time, without affecting the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent until revocation.
Insofar as you have given corresponding consent, the companies listed in the declaration of consent may, on this basis, use the data for individual customer and prospective customer support, for example, and contact you for these purposes via the communication channels you have requested. Your data is used within this framework to offer you an inspiring brand and support experience with Porsche and to make our communication and interaction with you as personal and as relevant as possible. Which of your data is specifically used for individual customer and prospect support depends in particular on which data was collected when using the services and which data you provided within the framework of the services (e.g. your personal interests).

Change of purpose

Where we process your personal data for a purpose other than that for which it was collected, beyond appropriate consent or a compelling legal basis, we will take into account, in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 4 of the GDPR, the compatibility of the original purpose and the purpose now pursued, the nature of the personal data, the possible consequences for you of further processing and the safeguards for the protection of the personal data.

Profiling

We do not use automated decision-making in accordance with Article 22 GDPR to prepare, establish or conduct business relationships. If profiling is carried out, this is only done for the purposes stated in the General Privacy Policy, the Specific Privacy Policy and, if applicable, the additional Special Data Protection Notices of the respective service and on the basis of the legal grounds stated.

Device access permissions

Some functions of the services require you to grant access to your end device (e.g. access to location data). Granting permissions is voluntary. However, if you wish to use the corresponding functions, you must grant the corresponding authorisations, otherwise you will not be able to use these functions. Permissions remain active unless you revoke them in your device by deactivating the relevant setting. You can find out in which areas access to the device should occur in the Specific Privacy Policy and, if applicable, in the further Special Data Protection Notices of the respective service.

Cookies and comparable technologies

Insofar as we use cookies and comparable technologies within the scope of the services, you can find corresponding explanations in the specific data protection declaration and the further special data protection information of the respective service.

We also process personal data that we receive from third parties or from publicly available sources. Below is an overview of the relevant sources and the categories of data obtained from these sources.

  • Porsche AG and its group companies, Porsche dealers and service operations: e.g. information about the products you use and your interests;

We store your personal data, if a legal permission exists for this, only as long as necessary to achieve the purposes pursued or as long as you have not revoked your consent. In  the event that you object to the processing, we will delete your personal data unless further processing is permitted by the legal provisions. We will also delete your personal data if we are obligated to do so for other legal reasons. Pursuant to these general principles, we will usually erase your personal information immediately

  • after elimination of the legal basis and if no other legal basis (e.g. commercial and tax retention periods) impinges. If the latter is the case, we will erase the data once that other legal basis ceases to apply;
  • if your personal data is no longer required for our purposes, and if no other legal basis (for example, commercial and tax retention periods) impinges. If the latter is the  case, we will delete the data once that other legal basis ceases to apply.

Information on the registration process and the creation of your Porsche ID user account can be found in Point 4.1 of the Porsche Digital Service Infrastructure / Porsche ID General Privacy Policy.

2.2 Using the individual features with registration/login
The features within the framework of our offering on our website and the relevant processed personal data, purposes and legal bases are described below.

2.2.1 Booking and activating services, handling payment information, identity verification
For information about how to book services via our website and how payment information is handled, see Point 5.1 of the Porsche Digital Service Infrastructure / Porsche ID General Privacy Policy.
The laws in some countries may require an identity check based on identification documents in order to book certain telecommunications services. In relation to data  processing when carrying out such identity checks, we are jointly responsible with
– IDnow GmbH, Auenstr. 100, 80469 Munich, Germany.
You can access the Privacy Policy of our cooperation partner IDnow GmbH via https://idnow.io/privacy/.

There are two methods available for performing identity verification. One method is that you can be redirected to the external page or app of the service provider, IDnow, as part of the service booking procedure. As part of the process, we will, at your request, transmit the information to be verified (your name, your address and your date of birth) as well as a reference number to the service provider that will allow us to assign the test result at a later point. As part of the identity check, the service provider will compare the aforementioned data with your identification document and store the data, as well as an optoelectronic copy of the identification document, a photo of the verified person and an audio record of the session. The service provider will then inform us of the result of the identity check, using the reference number.
Your other option is to have identity verification performed at a participating Porsche Centre. This involves staff at the Porsche Centre verifying your identity on the basis of an identification document and sending the verified information (your name, address and date of birth) and a reference number to the service provider via a Porsche system. By entering this reference number, you can use the service provider’s app to submit an optoelectronic copy of your identification document to the service provider at your convenience. The service provider will then inform us of the result of the identity check, using the reference number.
Personal data resulting from this identity check will only be shared with third parties if we are legally obliged to do so. Only in such cases will we obtain access to a copy of your identification document from the service provider, for the purpose of fulfilling our legal obligations.
The legal basis for our processing of your personal data in order to carry out an identity check is GDPR Article 6 [1] (c) and/or (f), as the identity check is the fulfilment of a legal obligation by which we are bound, or reflects to our legitimate interest in complying with legal requirements.
As the jointly responsible party together with IDnow GmbH, we have determined in an agreement according to GDPR Article 26 how the respective functions and relationships in the processing of personal data are to be structured and who is to satisfy which data protection obligations, in particular with regard to ensuring an adequate  level of security, the implementation of your rights as a data subject, the fulfilment of data protection obligations, as well as the monitoring of potential data protection incidents, including the assurance of reporting or notification obligations (as required). You can use the contact details provided in Point 1 (of the General Privacy Policy) to
request further information about this agreement; we shall then supply you with the key provisions.
You are welcome to contact either of the jointly responsible parties with questions or to exercise your rights as a data subject. In the spirit of the aforementioned agreement, we will consult with IDnow GmbH in accordance with GDPR Article 26 in order to answer your inquiry and, if necessary, to fulfil your wish to exercise your rights as a data subject.
The exchange of personal data between the jointly responsible parties takes place on the basis of GDPR Article 6 (1) (f), in other words our legitimate interest in the effective implementation of identity checks in cooperation with IDnow GmbH.

2.2.8.3 Processing under joint responsibility of PSM GmbH and Marketplace participants
With regard to the following processing, we are jointly responsible with the respective participants of the Online Marketplace who have placed the offer on the respective page and with whom you may book services or products:

  • Data processing as part of the visit and the booking, application or reservation process in the respective shop of the Marketplace participant, but not the downstream service processing outside the platform;

In relation to these data processing activities, we determine the purposes and means of processing personal data in cooperation with the respective Marketplace participants.
In an agreement with the relevant Marketplace participants on joint responsibility, we have defined, pursuant to GDPR Article 26, the respective tasks and responsibilities in the processing of personal data and the responsible parties to fulfil data protection obligations. In particular, we have defined how an appropriate level of security and your rights as a data subject can be ensured, how we can jointly comply with data protection information obligations and how we can monitor potential data protection incidents. This also includes ensuring that we can fulfil our reporting and notification obligations.
PSM GmbH is at your disposal as your central point of contact with regard to the aforementioned processing in joint responsibility.

In particular, the service processing
of the purchase, booking, application or reservation contract as well as invoicing does not take place under joint responsibility, but under the sole responsibility of the relevant Marketplace provider.

This feature enables you to rent a Porsche vehicle.

In order to conclude a rental contract, you must provide us with the personal data listed below.

If you do not save this personal data in your Porsche ID user account in advance, you will be required to provide this personal data by completing this personal data in your Porsche ID user account at the rental location (possibly by our service provider). An appropriate device will be made available to you at the location for this purpose if necessary.
In order for a valid rental contract to be created, the following mandatory data must be saved in your Porsche ID user account:

In addition, to ensure the correctness of the data (for example no typographical errors, reversal of first and last name, the spelling of foreign street names and house numbers, etc.) and for security reasons (for example disclosure of the card number to the competent authorities in the event of a criminal offense or misdemeanour relating to the rented vehicle) a copy is generally made of your ID card. Unnecessary information (such as your height or eye colour) will be blacked out. You personal data will be processed on the basis of GDPR Article 6 [1] (b), (c) and (f) in order to provide you with the services you require in this connection, to implement the associated contractual relationship with you and to meet our legal obligations.

The vehicles have a device for tracking the location and condition of the vehicle (especially current mileage). Using this device, it is possible for a limited number of  mployees
to keep track of the contractually agreed mileage and current location of the vehicle.
You personal data will be processed on the basis of GDPR Article 6 [1] (c) and (f) in order to safeguard our legitimate interest, to provide you with the support you require and to prevent uses contrary to the contract and potential damage as well as to fulfil official and/or legal requirements or obligations, such as official, public prosecutor or judicial requests.
For the fulfilment of the contract in Germany, PSM GmbH uses selected service providers who can be chosen in the booking process on the Porsche Drive Rental website (under the following link: https://customer.drive.porsche.com/ireland/en/porsche drive-rental- stations). Service providers are Porsche Centres within the German dealer organisation or companies affiliated with Porsche AG based in Germany. These service providers are carefully selected by PSM GmbH.
At the end of the rental period you will receive a summary of your trip data by e-mail. You can save this summary as you wish, or send it to third parties, independently of our offers, via your own terminal device or the third-party services you use.
After the end of the rental period, you also have the option of informing us by e-mail via an online dialogue (e.g. by awarding stars) how you enjoyed the rental. We process the data we collect on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) of GDPR in order to further improve the services based on your feedback.
