If it is not possible to transfer the prize to the winner (e.g. because the entitlement to the prize has lapsed due to the conditions of participation or the winner does not accept the prize), it is at the organizer's discretion what is done with the prize (e.g. whether the prize is awarded to the participants who did not win in accordance with these conditions of participation or whether it is not awarded and is used for another competition, for example).

9. data protection

Data is collected as part of the competition.

The data is collected and processed for the following purposes:

The data collected will be used to carry out the respective competition to fulfill the contract. Data will only be passed on to third parties if this is necessary for the implementation of the competition:

• Draw
• Notification of winnings
• Dispatch of winnings
• Registration for training and examination

The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1b DSGVO.

The following data is collected for the above-mentioned purposes:

• Company, surname, first name, address, telephone and e-mail

Only the organizer has access to the data. The data does not leave the European Economic Area (EEA). The use of the data is necessary for the provision of the services.

The organizer secures the data according to the state of the art. Among other things, the organizer uses the following security measures to protect your personal data against misuse or any other form of unauthorized processing:

• access to personal data is restricted to a limited number of authorized persons and to specific purposes;
• the data is only transmitted in encrypted form, e.g. "https:...";
• the data is stored in encrypted form;
• the IT systems used for data processing are technically separated from the other systems in order to prevent unauthorized access, for example through hacking;
• Access to the systems is continuously monitored in order to detect and report any misuse at an early stage.

The legal basis is Articles 25 and 32 of the GDPR.

The organizer processes and stores the personal data as long as this is necessary for the fulfillment of contractual and legal obligations and the purpose of the processing exists. If the data is no longer required for the fulfillment of contractual or legal obligations or if the purpose of data storage no longer applies, it will be deleted in accordance with regulatory requirements, unless its - temporary - further processing is necessary for the following purposes:

• Fulfillment of retention obligations under commercial and tax law, which may arise, for example, from the German Commercial Code and Fiscal Code. The retention and documentation periods specified there are generally 2-10 years.
• All personal data stored as part of Academy services is stored for 5 years. This corresponds to the validity of the remote pilot certificate.
• Preservation of evidence within the framework of the statutory limitation periods. According to §§ 195 ff. of the German Civil Code, these limitation periods can be up to 30 years, whereby the regular limitation period is 3 years.

The participants' data will be deleted one month after the end of the competition.

If a prize is sent by post, the winners' data will be stored in accordance with statutory retention periods.

If the winners receive a voucher for Droniq Academy services, such as an A2 exam, the data will be stored in accordance with the period of use.

If we publish winners by name and/or with a photo, this will only be done with the express consent of the person concerned.
