This includes responding to any questions you address to us, contractual fulfilment and contractual implementation, technical administration and the generation of offers and responding to questions of a general nature.

Your personal data will only be transmitted to third parties or otherwise if this is necessary for the purpose of contractual fulfilment or for accounting purposes, you have provided prior consent or we are required to make said transmission on the basis of statutory provisions or mandatory, official order.

You are entitled at any time to revoke your consent to the storage of personal data. In the event that you revoke said consent, we will – to the extent that this is permitted by law – immediately delete your personal data.
