Legal basis for data processing

If we obtain your consent to process personal data, this serves as the legal basis as per Article 6(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

The processing of personal data that is required to fulfil a contract agreed with you is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR also applies to processing required for performing precontractual measures, e.g. in connection with requests pertaining to our products or services.

If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires us to process personal data – such as a tax obligation – then the legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR.

We store and analyse user data obtained from online sources pseudonymously so that we can continually improve our offering. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. For more information, see "When are cookies used?" below.
