Principles of data processing
- Personal data
Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, information such as your name, age, address, telephone number, date of birth, e-mail address, IP address or user behaviour. - Processing
The processing of personal data (e.g. collection, retrieval, use, storage or transmission) always requires a legal basis. - Legal basis
In accordance with the DPA and the GDPR, we have to have at least one of the following legal bases to process your Personal Data: i) you have given your consent, ii) the data is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract / pre-contractual measures, iii) the data is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation, or iv) the data is necessary to protect our legitimate interests, provided that your interests are not overridden. - Retention
Processed personal data will be deleted as soon as the purpose of the processing has been achieved and there are no longer any legally required retention obligations.

Data Security
We undertake to protect your privacy and to treat your personal data confidentiality.
