Data protection information for online meetings, telephone conferences and webinars via “Microsoft Teams” of i-potentials GmbH
We would like to inform you below about the processing of personal data in connection with the use of “Microsoft Teams”.
Purpose of processing
We use the tool “Microsoft Teams” to conduct telephone conferences, online meetings, video conferences and/or webinars (hereinafter: “online meetings”). “Microsoft Teams” is a service provided by Microsoft Corporation.
Controller
The controller for data processing directly related to the conduct of “Online Meetings” is i-potentials GmbH, Zimmerstraße 79/80, 10117 Berlin.
Note: Insofar as you call up the “Microsoft Teams” Internet site, the “Microsoft Teams” provider is responsible for data processing. However, calling up the Internet page is only necessary to use “Microsoft Teams” in order to download the software for using “Microsoft Teams”.
If you do not want to or cannot use the “Microsoft Teams” app, you can also use “Microsoft Teams” via your browser. The service will then also be provided via the “Microsoft Teams” website to that extent.
What data is processed?
When using “Microsoft Teams”, various types of data are processed. The scope of the data also depends on the data you provide before or during participation in an “online meeting”.
The following personal data are subject to processing:
- User details: e.g. display name (“Display name”), e-mail address if applicable, profile picture (optional), preferred language
- Meeting metadata: e.g. date, time, meeting ID, phone numbers, location
- Text, audio and video data: you may have the option of using the chat function in an “online meeting”. To this extent, the text entries you make are processed in order to display them in the “online meeting”. In order to enable the display of video and the playback of audio, the data from the microphone of your terminal device and from any video camera of the terminal device will be processed accordingly for the duration of the meeting. You can turn off or mute the camera or microphone yourself at any time via the “Microsoft Teams” applications.
Scope of processing
We use “Microsoft Teams” to conduct “online meetings.” If we want to record “online meetings”, we will transparently inform you in advance and – if necessary – ask for consent.
If it is necessary for the purposes of logging the results of an online meeting, we will log the chat content. However, this will usually not be the case.
Automated decision-making within the meaning of Art. 22 DSGVO is not used.
Legal basis of data processing
Insofar as personal data of employees of i-potentials GmbH is processed, § 26 BDSG is the legal basis for data processing. If, in connection with the use of “Microsoft Teams”, personal data is not required for the establishment, implementation or termination of the employment relationship, but is nevertheless an elementary component in the use of “Microsoft Teams”, Art. 6 (1) lit. f) DSGVO is the legal basis for data processing. In these cases, our interest is in the effective implementation of “online meetings”.
For the rest, the legal basis for data processing when conducting “online meetings” is Art. 6 (1) lit. b) DSGVO, insofar as the meetings are conducted in the context of contractual relationships.
Recipients / passing on of data
Personal data processed in connection with participation in “Online Meetings” will not be disclosed to third parties as a matter of principle, unless it is specifically intended for disclosure. Please note that the content of “online meetings”, as well as personal meetings, is often used to communicate information with customers, interested parties or third parties and is therefore intended to be passed on.
Other recipients: the provider of “Microsoft Teams” necessarily receives knowledge of the above-mentioned data, insofar as this is provided for in the context of our order processing agreement with “Microsoft Teams”.
Data processing outside the European Union
Data processing outside the European Union (EU) does not take place as a matter of principle, as we have restricted our storage location to data centers in the European Union. However, we cannot exclude the routing of data via Internet servers that are located outside the EU. This may be the case in particular if participants in “Online Meeting” are located in a third country.
However, the data is encrypted during transport over the Internet and thus protected against unauthorized access by third parties.
Data protection officer
We have designated a data protection officer.
You can reach him as follows: LOROP GmbH, Dennis Schulz, Landgrafenstraße 16, 10787 Berlin, E-Mail:

Finally, you have a right to object to processing within the scope of the law.
A right to data portability also exists within the framework of the data protection legal requirements.
Deletion of data
We generally delete personal data when there is no need for further storage. A requirement may exist in particular if the data is still needed to fulfill contractual services, to check and grant or defend against warranty and, if applicable, guarantee claims. In the case of statutory retention obligations, deletion will only be considered after expiry of the respective retention obligation.
Right of complaint to a supervisory authority
You have the right to complain about the processing of personal data by us to a supervisory authority for data protection.
