● Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 it. a GDPR serves as our legalbasis for processing operations for which we obtain consent.
● Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. b GDPR is the legal basisinsofar as the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance ofa contract, e.g. if a site visitor purchases a product from us or we perform aservice for him. This legal basis also applies to processing that is necessaryfor pre-contractual measures, such as in the case of inquiries about ourproducts or services.
● Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. c GDPR applies if we fulfill alegal obligation by processing personal data, as may be the case, for example,in tax law.

Insofar as we transfer data to service providers or otherthird parties outside the EEA, the security of the data during the transfer isguaranteed by adequacy decisions of the EU Commission, insofar as they exist(e.g. for Great Britain, Canada and Israel) (Art. 45 para. 3 GDPR).
If no adequacy decision exists (e.g. for the USA), the legalbasis for the data transfer are usually, i.e. unless we indicate otherwise,standard contractual clauses. These are a set of rules adopted by the EUCommission and are part of the contract with the respective third party.According to Art. 46 para. 2 lit. b GDPR, they ensure the security of the datatransfer. Many of the providers have given contractual guarantees that gobeyond the standard contractual clauses to protect the data. These include, forexample, guarantees regarding the encryption of data or regarding an obligationon the part of the third party to notify data subjects if law enforcementagencies wish to access the respective data.
Unless expressly stated in this privacy policy, the datastored by us will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for theirintended purpose and no legal obligations to retain data conflict with thedeletion.
