As far as none of the aforementioned legal bases exist, our data processing is based on your consent in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 (a) GDPR. You, of course, have the right to revoke your consent at any time. However, the revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out on the basis of consent until the revocation (i.e. the revocation does not affect the past).

For the aforementioned reasons we may forward your personal data to the following recipients:

Companies that are part of our group as well as their employees

Storage period

Your personal data will only be stored by us for as long as it is reasonably necessary to achieve the aforementioned purposes. We also store your personal data for as long as there are statutory retention obligations or the limitation periods for potential legal claims have not yet expired.
