We process your personal data with regard to the legal provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation, Federal Data Protection Act as well as all decisive laws. The processing of data is essentially for the justification, realization and ending of the business relationship. The legal foundation therefor is art. 6 par. 1b) GDPR. It is possible that your special compliance according to art. 6 par. 1a), 7 GDPR can be used as data protectional admission prescription. If necessary we will process your data according to art. 6 par. 1f) GDPR to protect our legitimate interests and those of third parties (e.g. agencies/authorities). This is valid for our corporate group for enterprise controlling, internal communication and other administration purposes. Beyond that we have to compare your data with the so called “EU-terror-list” (European order against terrorism 2580/2001 and 881/2002), to guarantee that no investments are made or that no other economic resources are for terroristic purposes. We will inform you in advance, if we use your personal data for any other purpose.
Who receives your data?
Inside our company only the people and departments who need your personal data to fulfill our contractual and legal duties receive your data. Inside our company/corporate group your data will only be transferred to certain other companies if those attend data processing tasks for companies which are related to our corporate group (e.g. file disposal). Besides we consider different service providers for the fulfillment of our contractual and legal duties.

For how long will your data be saved?
We will delete your personal data, if we do not need them any longer for the purposes mentioned above. After ending our business relation your data will be saved as long as we are legally committed to keep them.

The time limit for data saving is up to ten years according to both codes. Besides it is possible that personal data is stored for a period of time if a claim is filed against us (legal period of limitation from three years on, up to thirty years).

You can request additional information to this matter under the enclosed contact data of this information sheet.
