• Users have given their consent for one or more specific purposes.

• provision of Data is necessary for the performance of an agreement with the User and/or for any pre-contractual obligations thereof;

• processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the Owner is subject;

• processing is related to a task that is carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the Owner;

• processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Owner or by a third party.

Further information about retention time

Furthermore, the Owner may be obliged to retain Personal Data for a longer period whenever required to fulfil a legal obligation or upon order of an authority.

Once the retention period expires, Personal Data shall be deleted. Therefore, the right of access, the right to erasure, the right to rectification and the right to data portability cannot be enforced after expiration of the retention period.
