means and/or purposes of the data processing we perform. This privacy notice does not
apply to the personal information we process as a ‘data processor’ on behalf of our

we have entered into a data processing agreement is the ‘data controller’ responsible for

permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal

archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any
further processing until deletion is possible.

of organisational and technical security measures.

other unauthorised third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly
collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect
your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our

implementing DNT signals has been finalised. As such, we do not currently respond to
