2.2. Overview of „marketing“ Cookies
In addition to the “technical cookies” described above, we also use so-called marketing cookies (including “statistical cookies”). These marketing cookies allow us to better understand and evaluate your interests. With the help of the marketing cookies, we can merge your “surfing behavior” across the boundaries of our website with data from other websites. In this way, we would like to be in a position to better understand the interests of our homepage visitors and to be able to address them in a more targeted manner.
We respect that not every visitor of the website wants this. Therefore, we process your data in the course of advertising cookies only if you consent (Art 6 para 1 lit a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time, whereby the data processing carried out until the time of revocation remains justified.
A list of the technical cookies can be found in the cookie banner – or here.

- for the purpose of internal administration and management of your business case to the extent necessary (e.g.: Processing your business case, forwarding your business case to various departments, filing, archiving purposes, correspondence with you);

- Carrying out a due diligence review;
- Processing of data for advertising purposes. This processing can be objected to at any time without reason;

in each case to the extent necessary. The processing of your data serves the initiation, maintenance and settlement of our business relations. If you do not provide us with this data, we will unfortunately not be able to process your business case.
If applicable, we process your data based on your voluntary, explicit consent (Art 6 para 1 lit a DSGVO).
In the course of organising events, it may happen that photos or videos are taken of participants. These photos or videos may be published in press reports and on social media as well as in publications and on the website. The processing of these photos is based on your voluntary consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. Please note, however, that once photos have been published, they cannot be removed retroactively.
We will only store your data for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which we collected your data. In this context, statutory retention obligations must be taken into account (for example, for reasons of tax law, contracts and other documents from our contractual relationship must generally be retained for a period of seven years (section 132 BAO)). In justified individual cases, such as for the assertion and defense of legal claims, we may also store your data for up to 30 years after termination of the business relationship.
We store data of interested parties for up to one year from the date of the last contact by the interested party.
