· Foreign Countries
Some of the recipients mentioned above are outside of Austria or process your personal data there. However, we only transfer your data to countries that have an adequate level of data protection pursuant to a decision of the EU Commission. If this is not the case, we will take measures to ensure that all recipients have an adequate level of data protection (e.g. conclusion of standard data protection clauses).
6. Updating
Updating of your personal data takes place primarily on the basis of your direct feedback or modification notice to us.
7. How long will your data be stored?
We process your personal data, as long as necessary, for the purposes described above as well as pursuant to statutory retention and documentation obligations stipulated in particular by the Austrian Commercial Code (Unternehmensgesetzbuch – UGB) and the Federal Tax Code (Bundesabgabenordnung – BAO) or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims for the duration of the statutory statutes of limitation, which, for example pursuant to the General Civil Code (Allgemeines Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch – ABGB) may be generally 30 years, however, in some cases only 3 years.
Generally, your data will therefore be deleted after the termination of our business relationship, revocation of your consent or your objection, if storage is not required for the fulfilment of a legal obligation or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.
There is the possibility that anonymization of the data is carried out instead of a deletion. In this case, any personal reference is irretrievably removed, which is why the data protection obligations to deletion no longer apply. In this case, personal reference cannot be restored.
