4. Storage Period
Unless a more specific storage period has been stated within this Privacy Policy, your personal data will remain with us only for as long as this is necessary for the respective processing purposes. The data will then be deleted unless statutory retention obligations or other legal reasons prevent deletion. Under the information obligations of the GDPR, the Privacy Policy must state the duration of storage or, if this is not possible, the criteria used to determine that duration.
In particular, we store personal data that we process for contract performance for as long as this is necessary to carry out the contractual relationship, including any reversals, returns, warranty cases, and accounting documentation obligations.
We store data that you send to us when contacting us for as long as this is necessary to process your request and any follow-up questions.
Where statutory retention obligations apply, deletion will take place only after the respective periods have expired.
5. Legal Bases for Data Processing

This applies in particular to processing operations for which prior consent is required, for example for certain cookies, tracking, or marketing measures. You may revoke any consent you have given at any time with effect for the future.
If processing is necessary for the performance of a contract or for carrying out pre-contractual measures, it is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. This concerns in particular processing in connection with orders, payments, shipping, customer accounts, returns, and the handling of contract-related inquiries.
If processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, it is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. This concerns in particular retention and documentation obligations under commercial and tax law.
If processing is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party and no overriding interests of the data subject require protection, it is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. This concerns in particular the technical provision of our website, ensuring IT security, the stability of operations, the handling of general inquiries, and the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
If, in individual cases, special categories of personal data are processed, this will only be done within the framework of the applicable legal requirements.
