If you do not provide your consent, this may result in our company being unable to provide certain products or services or being forced to make reasonable adjustments to the availability, scope or terms of the products and services provided.

Based on your consent, our company processes your personal data for the following purposes:

(a) client care; these are activities that do not constitute performance of a contract or other lawful processing of personal data and include the following activities:

(i) market research;

We continuously assess whether there is still a need to process certain personal data necessary for a particular purpose. If we determine that they are no longer necessary for any of the purposes for which they were processed, we will destroy the data. However, we have already internally assessed the normal period of usefulness of personal data in relation to certain purposes of processing personal data, at the end of which we particularly carefully assess the need to process the relevant personal data for that purpose.

We would like to remind you that we are also entitled to process certain personal data for certain purposes without your consent.
