If you assert a legitimate request for erasure or revoke consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, erasure takes place after these reasons no longer apply. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR, if special categories of data according to Art. 9 (1) GDPR are processed. In the event of express consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing also takes place on the basis of Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access to information in your terminal device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), data processing is additionally based on Section 25 (1) TTDSG.

Data processing may also take place on the basis of our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Information on data transfer to third countries that are not secure under data protection law and transfer to US companies that are not DPF-certified<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We point out that the USA, as a secure third country, generally has a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU.

Information on transfers to third countries, including the data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When using processors, we only pass on personal data of our customers on the basis of a valid contract for data processing.
