III. General information on data processing
1 Scope of processing of personal data
As a matter of principle, we collect and use personal data of our users only insofar as this is necessary for the execution of our contracts. Once the contractual obligations have been fulfilled, we will only process data with the consent we have given. An exception applies in cases where it is not possible to obtain prior consent for factual reasons or where the processing of the data is permitted by law.
2 Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR serves as the legal basis. In the case of the processing of personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR serves as the legal basis. If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first interest, Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
3 Data deletion and storage period
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies. In addition, storage may take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other regulations to which the controller is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or altered so that it is no longer possible to assign the calling client.
