Data Protection

We take appropriate security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access and use.

Legal basis

The personal data is processed by us by virtue of a weighing of interests. We have a strong interest in being able to maintain business contacts with other companies and organisations and we only process your personal data in your role as a representative or contact person for such companies or organisations.

International transfers

If we have a supplier or business partner in a country outside the EU/EEA, your personal data may be transferred to a country which does not have an equivalent level of protection pertaining to personal data. We will take appropriate security measures in order to protect your personal data in conjunction with such transfer. You can request further information at any time in respect of such transfers and the protective measures employed by us.

Data retention

We retain personal data during the period in which a business relationship exists with the company or organisation which you represent or during such time as is otherwise necessary in order to fulfil the purpose of the processing or during such time as there is an obligation to retain the data according to law, ordinance or decision by a public authority. You can deregister from your subscription in respect of new and updates at any time and your information will then not be retained for this purpose.

Your rights

You are entitled to request information concerning what personal data that we process about you and how it is used. You can also request that personal data concerning you is rectified if it proves to be incorrect. In accordance with applicable legislation, you can also request that your personal data should be deleted or that the processing of your personal data should be limited, and you also have a right to object to the processing of your personal data and to request that your personal data is transferred in electronic format.
