We also process your data to safeguard our legitimate interests under (f) of Article 6 (1) GDPR:

Consent can be withdrawn at any time. This also applies to the withdrawal of informed consent forms that were filed with us before the GDPR came into effect, namely before May 25, 2018. A withdrawal of consent has prospective effect only and does not affect the lawfulness of the data processing until the date of withdrawal.

In addition, we may preserve your data until the expiry of the statutory period of limitation (generally 3 years, but could also extend to 30 years in specific instances) if required to enforce, prosecute or defend legal claims. The data is routinely deleted thereafter.
