An exception applies to cases in which prior consent can not be obtained for reasons of fact and the processing of the data is permitted by law.

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing of personal data, Article 6 (1)(a) EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as legal basis.

If processing of personal data is required to fulfill a legal obligation that our company is subject to, Article 6 (1)(c) GDPR as legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or any other natural person require the processing of personal data, Article 6 (1)(d) GDPR as legal basis.
If the processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not prevail over the first interest, then Article 6 (1)(f) GDPR as legal basis for processing.

3. Data erasure and storage duration
