As part of the identity check, you agree that your personal data will be transmitted by Paymorrow to SCHUFA Holding AG (Kormoranweg 5, 65201 Wiesbaden; "SCHUFA") for the purpose of identity verification. SCHUFA will then transmit the degree of correspondence between the personal details stored by it and the personal details you have provided in percentage values and, if applicable, a reference to a previous ID-based legitimacy check carried out by SCHUFA or another contractual partner. Paymorrow can therefore use the transmitted match rates to determine whether a person is stored in the SCHUFA database at the address you have provided. There will be no further exchange of data or transmission of different addresses or storage of your data in the SCHUFA database. For reasons of proof, only the fact that the address was checked by SCHUFA will be stored.

The provision of the data is necessary for the conclusion of the contract with the payment method you have requested. Failure to provide the data means that the contract cannot be concluded with the payment method you have chosen.
Data collection and processing for payment methods by installment purchase, SEPA direct debit and invoice via Ratepay
When paying using the payment methods "Ratepay purchase on account" and/or "Ratepay direct debit" and/or "Ratepay purchase in installments", your personal data provided during the ordering process (first and last name, address, date of birth, email address, telephone number and, in the case of SEPA direct debit, the specified bank account details) will be collected and passed on to Ratepay GmbH (Franklinstrasse 28-29, 10587 Berlin; "Ratepay"). The purpose of the data transfer is to enable Ratepay to carry out a risk analysis in order to process your purchase using the payment method you have requested.
The processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR out of the overriding legitimate interest in determining whether you will be able to meet your payment obligations and in order to rule out fraudulent intent by using your data to commit criminal offenses.
As part of the risk analysis, Ratepay reserves the right to obtain a credit report based on mathematical-statistical procedures using credit agencies. To do this, Ratepay transmits the personal data required for a credit check to a credit agency and uses the information received on the statistical probability of a payment default to make a balanced decision on the establishment, implementation or termination of the contractual relationship. An overview of credit agencies that Ratepay uses can be found at: https://www.ratepay.com/legal-payment-creditagencies/ . The credit report can contain probability values (score values) that are calculated on the basis of scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical procedures and whose calculation includes, among other things, address data. Your legitimate interests are taken into account in accordance with the statutory provisions. The data processing serves the purpose of the credit check for the initiation of a contract. The processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR due to our overriding legitimate interest in protection against payment default when Ratepay makes advance payments.
You have the right to object to this processing of personal data concerning you based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR at any time by notifying us or Ratepay, for reasons arising from your particular situation. The provision of the data is necessary for the conclusion of the contract with the payment method you have requested. Failure to provide the data means that the contract cannot be concluded with the payment method you have selected.
Further information on payment methods and data processing when using the payment service can be found in the associated data protection declaration at https://www.ratepay.com/legal-payment-terms/ and https://www.ratepay.com/legal-payment-dataprivacy/ .
