a) Principle

If you contact our company and leave personal data to us, they will be saved for the purpose of initiating a contract or fulfilling contractual obligations, if this is necessary.

In the course of fulfilling the contract, it may be necessary to process personal data that we have received permissibly and for the respective purpose from other companies or third parties. In the same way, we might process personal data from publicly accessible sources, which we use admissibly and only for the purpose of the contract.

Usually we store the following information that we received from you:

  • Title, first name, last name,
  • a valid email address,
  • phone number (landline and/or mobile),
  • information on your position in the company.

The collection of these data takes place

  • to provide you with adequate advice;
  • for correspondence with you;
  • for invoicing.

The data processing is based on your request and is in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b GDPR for the purposes mentioned above for the mutual fulfillment of contractual obligations.

The personal data collected by us will be stored until the purpose of the agreement has been achieved or until the termination of the contractual relationship, and thereafter be deleted, unless we are under Article 6 paragraph 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR required to retain data for a longer period due to tax and commercial retention requirements and documentation obligations (from the German Commercial Code, StGB or AO) or you have consented to further storage in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.
