1. Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data

All processing activities of personal data that are necessary to fulfill a contract of which you are a party are based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GERMAN GDPR. This also applies to processing operations required to carry out pre-contractual measures.

To the extent that processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation, such as the statutory retention obligations described earlier, to which our company is subject, Article 6(1)(c) of the GERMAN GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, and the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Article 6(1)(f) of the GERMAN GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.

Where we obtain consent from the data subject for the processing of personal data, Article 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GERMAN GDPR) serves as the legal basis.

2. Data Deletion and Storage Period

Personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of processing no longer applies. Furthermore, data processing may take place if this is provided for by the European or national legislator in union regulations, laws, or other regulations to which the controller is subject.  

During the operation of msg mySaveID GmbH, the archived data (in paper form and electronically) is archived in accordance with the requirements of VDG § 16.4 and stored over the validity period of the certificates.
