Unless a more specific storage duration is cited within this privacy policy, your personal data will be retained by us until the purpose for data processing no longer pertains. Should you make a justified request for deletion or revoke consent to data processing, your data will be deleted, unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, deletion will occur once these reasons no longer apply.
5.4. General Information on the Legal Bases for Data Processing on This Website
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data based on Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR if special categories of data are processed according to Article 9(1) GDPR. In the case of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also based on Article 49(1)(a) GDPR. This consent can be revoked at any time. If your data is necessary for the performance of a contract or for taking steps prior to entering into a contract, we process your data on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, if your data is required to fulfill a legal obligation, we process it on the basis of Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.

The specific legal bases applicable in each case are detailed in the following sections of this privacy policy.
5.5. Notice Regarding Data Transfer to the USA and Other Third Countries
We use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries that do not provide a level of data protection equivalent to that of the EU. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these third countries. We caution that these countries do not offer a data protection level comparable to that of the EU. For example, US companies are obligated to release personal data to security authorities without the possibility for the data subjects to challenge these orders in court. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that US authorities (e.g., intelligence agencies) may process, evaluate, and permanently store your data on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no control over these processing activities.
5.6. Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation is not affected by your revocation.
5.7. Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, especially in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement. This right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.
5.8. Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive your data, which we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, in a common, machine-readable format either to yourself or to a third party. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will be done only to the extent that it is technically feasible.
5.9. Access, Deletion, and Correction
In accordance with applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to freely access information about your stored personal data, including its origin, the recipients, and the purpose of the data processing. You also have the right to request corrections or deletion of this data as needed. For this purpose and any other inquiries related to personal data, please feel free to contact us at any time.
5.10 Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to make such a request. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:
- If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. During the period of this verification, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.
- If the processing of your personal data has been unlawful, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the exercise, defense, or establishment of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
- If you have lodged an objection under Article 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. Until it has been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.
Once you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data, with the exception of storage, may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
