This data is also available to the contractual partner (TÜV NORD Systems GmbH &amp; Co. KG). In this context, the data is not passed on to third parties. The data is used exclusively for the purposes stated.</p>
<p>The legal basis for the processing of the data is our legitimate interest in data processing and the corresponding interest of the contractual partner. If the contact is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is the business initiation relationship or contractual relationship.</p>
<p>We use this contact data exclusively for our own purposes and for the needs-based design of our own sales activities.</p>
<p>If, however, our sales department or the sales department of TÜV NORD Systems GmbH &amp; Co. KG have not had any contact with the company contact within 15 months, it will be decided on the part of the sales department whether the contact person of the company contact will be deleted. If the contact is a pre-contractual relationship (offer, inquiry), the transmitted data will additionally be stored in our customer relationship management, or CRM.</p>
<p>The company contact has the option to object to the processing of his personal data at any time. All personal data of the contact that has been stored about the business partner will be deleted in this case.</p> <p><small>Source: data protection configurator from <a href="http://www.mein-datenschutzbeauftragter.de" target="_blank">mein-datenschutzbeauftragter.de</a></small></p>
