What Are the Purposes of My Data Being Processed and What Is the Legal Basis?

The purposes for processing personal data accord with the statutory conditions for their permitted usage at the time of their collection. We use your personal data to pursue, establish, and conduct a business relationship between you and our corporate group. The data are only processed for other purposes if there are legal grounds for doing so.

 

The legal basis for processing by our company is Article 6 I item A GDPR, for which we obtain consent for specific processing purposes. If the processing of personal data is necessary to pursue or fulfill a contract, the grounds for processing are as per Article 6 I item b GDPR. If our company has a legal obligation necessitating the processing of personal data, such as to fulfill tax obligations, the grounds for processing are as per Article 6 I item c GDPR. In exceptional cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the data subject's vital interests of another natural person. In such a case, the grounds for processing are as per Article 6 I item d GDPR. Lastly, the grounds for processing may be as per Article 6 I item f GDPR.

Who Receives My Data?

For the provision of our services, we involve sub-providers for our assistance (data processors). These data processors are contractually bound to our instructions. Their access to data is strictly limited to what is necessary to perform the assistance. Our sub-provider is located outside the European Union, and your data are transferred to a country that potentially has no level of data protection equivalent to the European level. For the continued protection of your data, all our sub-providers are bound by mechanisms according to Art. 46 GDPR to maintain a level that is equivalent to the one in the European Union.

How Long Will My Data Be Stored?

Data we process will be deleted by Articles 17 and 18 GDPR as soon as they are no longer required for their intended purpose unless their deletion is not permitted according to legal retention requirements. If data are not deleted due to being required for other legally permissible purposes, the data are held in restriction and may not be processed for other purposes.
