§ 2 Principles of data processing

Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

The processing of personal data (e.g. collection, retrieval, use, storage or transmission) always requires a legal basis or your consent. Processed personal data is deleted as soon as the purpose of the processing has been achieved and there are no longer any statutory retention obligations to be observed. In relation to those cases where we process your personal data for the provision of specific services, information is available below regarding the specific processes, the scope and purpose of the data processing, the legal basis for the processing and the respective retention period.
