Storage Duration
Unless a specific storage period is stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing no longer applies. If you make a legitimate deletion request or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless there are other legally permissible reasons for storage (e.g., tax or commercial retention obligations). In such cases, deletion occurs once these reasons no longer apply.
Legal Bases for Data Processing
If you have given consent, we process your data based on Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2)(a) GDPR (in case of special data categories). If you expressly consent to data transfer to third countries, processing also takes place on the basis of Art. 49 (1)(a) GDPR.
If the storage of cookies or device access (e.g., device fingerprinting) was consented to, processing is also based on § 25 (1) TDDDG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.
If your data is necessary for contract performance or pre-contractual measures, processing is based on Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR.
If processing is required to fulfill a legal obligation, it is based on Art. 6 (1)(c) GDPR.
Processing may also be based on our legitimate interest under Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR. The relevant legal bases for each case are explained in the sections below.
Recipients of Personal Data
In the course of our business activities, we work with various external entities. In some cases, personal data must be transferred to these entities.
We only share personal data with third parties when necessary for contract performance, when legally required (e.g., tax authorities), when we have a legitimate interest per Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR, or when another legal basis permits it.
When using data processors, we only transfer personal data based on a valid processing agreement. In cases of joint processing, a joint controller agreement is concluded.
Revocation of Your Consent
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of data processing carried out prior to revocation remains unaffected.
Right to Object (Art. 21 GDPR)
If data processing is based on Art. 6 (1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
We will no longer process your personal data unless compelling legitimate grounds override your interests, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time; this also applies to profiling related to such marketing.
Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority
In case of violations of the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement.
Right to Data Portability

Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data in the following cases:
If you contest the accuracy of your personal data, for the duration of verification.
If processing is unlawful and you request restriction instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your data but you require it for legal claims.
If you have objected under Art. 21 (1) GDPR and a balance of interests is pending.
If processing is restricted, such data—aside from storage—may only be processed with your consent or for legal claims or protection of rights of another person or for important public interest.
