When processing personal data on the basis of express consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, the data concerned will be stored until you revoke your consent.

If there are statutory retention periods for data that is processed within the framework of legal or quasi-legal obligations on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, this data will be routinely deleted after the retention periods have expired, provided that it is no longer necessary for the fulfilment or initiation of a contract and/or we no longer have a legitimate interest in its continued storage.

When processing personal data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, this data will be stored until you exercise your right to object in accordance with Art. 21 (1) GDPR, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

When processing personal data for direct marketing purposes on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, this data will be stored until you exercise your right to object in accordance with Art. 21 (2) GDPR.

Unless otherwise specified in the other information in this statement on specific processing situations, stored personal data will otherwise be deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
