How long will the data be stored? 

We process the data as long as this is necessary for the respective purpose.

Insofar as statutory retention obligations exist - e.g. under commercial law or tax law - the personal data concerned will be stored for the duration of the retention obligation. Once the retention obligation has expired, we will check whether there is any further need for processing. If it is no longer necessary, the data will be deleted.

At the end of a calendar year, we generally review data with regard to the need for further processing. Due to the volume of data, this review is carried out with regard to specific data types or purposes of processing.

Of course, you can request information about the personal data we have stored about you at any time (see below) and, if it is not necessary, request that the data be deleted or processing be restricted.

 

To which recipients is the data passed on?

Your personal data will only be passed on to third parties if this is necessary for the execution of the contract with you, if the transfer is permissible on the basis of a balancing of interests within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR, if we are legally obliged to pass on the data or if you have given your consent to do so.

 

Where is the data processed?

Your personal data is processed by us exclusively in data centers in the Federal Republic of Germany.
