If you make use of your right to object, we ask you to explain the reasons. We will then no longer process your personal data unless we can prove to you that compelling reasons worthy of protection for the data processing outweigh your interests and rights.
Irrespective of the above, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data for purposes of advertising and data analysis.
Please address your objection to the contact address of the data controller given above.
When do we delete your data?
We delete your data when we no longer need it or when you instruct us to do so. This means that – unless otherwise stated in the individual data protection notices of this data protection declaration – we delete your data,
when the purpose of the data processing has ceased to exist and therefore the respective legal basis stated in the individual data protection notices no longer exists, e.g.
after termination of the contractual or membership relationship existing between us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO) or
after our legitimate interest in the further processing or storage of your data ceases to exist (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO),
if you exercise your right of withdrawal and no other legal basis for processing within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. b-f DSGVO applies,
if you make use of your right to object and there are no compelling reasons worthy of protection against the deletion.
You yourself have the option to delete your participant profile data and the account at any time via the delete function in the participant profile.
However, if we still need to retain (certain parts of) your data for other purposes, for example because tax retention periods (generally 6 years for business correspondence or 10 years for accounting records) or the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims arising from contractual relationships (up to four years) make this necessary, or if the data is needed to protect the rights of another natural person or legal entity, we will delete (that part of) your data only after these periods have expired. However, until the expiration of these periods, we limit the processing of this data to these purposes (fulfillment of retention obligations).

You have via the security settings of your browser to object to the use of cookies set by us in the context of our legitimate interest. There, you have the option of specifying whether you do not accept cookies from the outset or only accept them on request, or whether you specify that cookies are deleted each time you close your browser. If cookies are deactivated for our website, it may no longer be possible to use all functions of the website to their full extent.
Consent, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO
If we ask you before your visit to our website to be allowed to set certain cookies on your terminal device and you consent to this, the consent you give is the legal basis.
