When Do We Delete Your Data?

We will delete your data, when it is no longer required by us or when it is requested by you. This means that -unless otherwise stated in the individual data protection notices of this data protection declaration – we will delete your data,

• If the purpose of the data processing no longer applies and the legal basis specified in the individual data protection notices no longer exists, for example
  • after termination of the existing contractual or membership relationship between us (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or
  • after our legitimate interest in the further processing or storage of your data has ceased to exist (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR)
  • Right of complaint: You have the right to lodge a complaint to a supervisory authority.
• If you make use of your right to object and there are no compelling reasons worthy of protection to prevent deletion.

However, if we still have to keep (certain Parts) of your data for other purposes, for example in accordance with tax retention periods (usually 6 years for business correspondence or 10 years for accounting documents) or the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims arising from contractual relationships (up to four years) or the data is needed to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, we will only delete (part of) your data after these periods have expired. However, until these periods expire, we limit the processing of this data to these purposes (fulfilment of storage obligations).

Web Analysis and Statistics:

We use web analysis services to record and statistically evaluate the flow of visitors to our website. Such services collect, among other things, data about which website you came to our website from (so-called referrers), which pages of our website you accessed, how long you visited our pages and what interactions you carried out there. In addition, the data is collected on the browser you are using, the computer system and the type of device. Additionally, such a service can also be used to record demographic information, such as age or gender, as pseudonymous values. If you have consented to the collection of your location data, these can be processed, depending upon the provider.

In order to collect and store this data, the web analysis service we use usually places a cookie on the end device you are using, with which the IP address assigned to you is also collected. However, this is shortened using a so-called IP masking process, so that the IP address can no longer be assigned to your visit to our website.

Also, no clear data such as names or e-mail addresses are stored. Neither we nor the service we use, knows the identity of the visitors to our website.

We would like to point out that, depending upon the country of domicile of the service provider named below, the data collected via the service may be transferred and processed outside of the European Union. In this case, there is a risk that the level of data protection prescribed by the GDPR is not observed and that your rights cannot be enforced or can only be enforced with difficulty.

• Communication data (e.g. information about the device used, IP address).
