Retention of Your Personal Data

The Company will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your personal data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

The Company will also retain usage data for internal analysis purposes. Usage data is generally retained for a shorter period of time, except when this data is used to strengthen the security or to improve the functionality of our Service, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer time periods.

Transfer of Your Personal Data

Your information, including personal data, is processed at the Company's operating offices in Germany and in any other places where the parties involved in the processing are located. This means that this information may be transferred to—and maintained on—computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those from your jurisdiction. While the laws in those jurisdictions may not offer the same level of data protection as the GDPR, we take steps to ensure that your personal data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

When transferring your personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

  • We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.
  • Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe (Standard Contractual Clauses).
  • Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield or another approved certification mechanism [Note: Privacy Shield is no longer valid; reference SCCs or the new Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework if applicable].
[Refine the last bullet point based on actual transfer mechanisms used.]

Your consent to this Privacy Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to that transfer. [As noted, consent alone is often insufficient under GDPR for necessary transfers. Emphasize the safeguards used instead.]

  • The right to access: You have the right to request copies of your personal data.
  • The right to rectification: You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate or complete information you believe is incomplete.
