* If the processing of your personal data is or has been unlawful, you may request the restriction of processing instead of the erasure of your data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data may—apart from being stored—only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or of a Member State.

If you send us enquiries via the contact form, the information you provide in the enquiry form, including the contact details you enter, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing your enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We will not disclose this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR if your enquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of enquiries addressed to us (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR), where such consent has been requested.
