Unless a more specific storage period is stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing ceases. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your data (e.g., tax or commercial retention periods); in the latter case, deletion will occur after these reasons cease to apply.
Legal Bases for Data Processing
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR if special categories of data are processed.

Transfers to Third Countries
We use tools from providers in third countries that do not offer an adequate level of data protection, and U.S. providers not certified under the DPF. If such tools are active, personal data may be transferred to these countries and processed there.

When using processors, data is transferred only on the basis of a valid data processing agreement.
Revocation of Consent
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent at any time. The legality of the processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected.
Right to Object (Art. 21 GDPR)
If data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing.
