Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted to us by the user. As a user, you therefore have full control over the use of cookies. You can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies by changing the settings in your Internet browser. Cookies that have already been saved can be deleted at any time.

Deletion of data
Unless otherwise stated in this declaration, personal data will be deleted immediately after the purpose for which it was collected ceases to apply and provided that there are no retention periods (e.g. 10-year retention period due to tax law regulations with regard to all data relevant to the tax case or 6-year retention period due to commercial law regulations) or, for example, limitation periods for data that may be useful for legal prosecution (usually 3 years from the end of the year in which the claim arose). The personal data collected by us for contact inquiries will generally be deleted after your inquiry has been dealt with, unless legitimate interests require longer storage (e.g. due to announced further inquiries, etc.). If your inquiry leads to the conclusion of a contract, your data will be deleted immediately after expiry of the limitation periods and statutory retention periods.

- there is a legal obligation for the processing pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR (in particular professional, tax and commercial law storage and transmission obligations), and
- processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party, in particular for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims (e.g. disclosure to courts, debt collection agencies, lawyers), except where such interests are overridden by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms which require protection of personal data.
Recipients of the data may also be service providers on whose services we rely for the operation of our company (e.g. technical service providers for the maintenance of the software and IT landscape, hosting providers) and for the fulfillment of our contractual obligations.
