Cookies that are required for the performance of the electronic communications transaction or to provide certain functions you want to use (e.g. use of language), are stored based on Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. f GDPR.

Should you send us questions via email, we will collect the transferred data, including the contact details you provide, to answer your question and any follow-up questions. We do not share this information without your permission.

We will, therefore, process any submitted data only with your consent per Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke your consent at any time. An informal email making this request is sufficient. The data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.

We will retain the data you provide via email until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Any mandatory legal provisions, especially those regarding mandatory data retention periods, remain unaffected by this provision.

5. Data collection and processing in context of a business relationship:

As part of a business relationship, we store necessary data of our business partners for proper transactions, such as: Address, telephone and telefax numbers, tax numbers, and data arising in course of business relationship like inquiries, offers, orders, bank details, orders, delivery notes, invoices, etc.

We collect personal data from contact persons of our business partners like names, associated, possibly personalized corporate e-mail addresses and position in the company, as far as it is necessary for the proper initiation, justification and execution of a contractual relationship.

Personal data are collected, stored and processed by us according to provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation and the Federal Data Protection Act. Storage time of these data depends on

• legal requirements for retention periods.

YOU HAVE THE OPTION TO OBJECT TO THIS STORAGE/RETENTION OF YOUR DATA IF YOU HAVE LEGITIMATE INTERESTS TO DO SO THAT OUTWEIGH OUR INTERESTS.

If it should be foreseeable that the retention of your data will be necessary after the retention period has expired (e.g. due to imminent or pending litigation), the data shall not be deleted until the data have become irrelevant. This shall be without prejudice to any other statutory retention periods.
