We shall process the aforementioned data for the following purposes:

The legal basis of data processing is Article 6 Subsection 1 Sentence 1 Letter f of the EU GDPR. Our legitimate interest results from the data collection purposes listed above. In no event shall we use the data collected for the purpose of drawing conclusions in regards to you as a person. In addition, we make use of cookies and analysis services whenever our website is visited. Please find further information on this matter in paragraphs 4 and 5 of this Data Privacy Statement.

c) If you use our contact form
If you have any questions of whatever kind, we offer you the opportunity to get in touch with us via a contact form provided on the website. For this purpose, the indication of a valid e-mail address shall be required, so that we know who sent the inquiry and are able to respond. Further information may be provided voluntarily. Data processing for the purpose of making contact with us shall result pursuant to Article 6 Subsection 1 Sentence 1 Letter a of the EU GDPR on the basis of your consent having been provided voluntarily. The personal data collected for utilisation of the contact form will be deleted automatically following the final settlement of your inquiry. Without the provision of your contact data, we are unable to respond to your concern.
d) Registration for and implementation of trainings
You have the opportunity to register for trainings on our website.
If you register for training activities, you will be requested to disclose your title, first name, surname, company, address and e-mail address. The provision of these data serves as a pre-contractual measure for the conclusion of a contract as well as to implement the training and to organise overnight accommodation in a hotel as part of our fulfilment of the contract.
Unfortunately, we are unable to offer training activities and procure overnight accommodation in a hotel without these data.
The purpose of provision of the e-mail address is to clarify further questions and confirm your registration and hence to implement pre-contractual measures and fulfil the contract.
Unfortunately, we are unable to confirm your registration for training activities without the provision of your e-mail address.
Moreover, you are able to indicate whether you will travel to the training venue by car or by train. This information is voluntary and serves to coordinate and organise your trip to the training venue. Without this information, we are unable to render this specific service.
In addition, you also have the opportunity to register other participants for a training event. In this event, you will have to obtain explicit authorisation in advance from the other participants to correspondingly use and forward their data to us.
If you select hotel reservation by deister, we will transmit your full name and address to the corresponding hotel, in which you wish to stay overnight, for the purpose of booking and provision of hotel services. The transmission of these data also serves to fulfil the contract.

If you register as a business partner, you have the option to make data available on the structure of your company and on the target market, in which you wish to sell your products, and to provide further information in respect of your company.
This data will be collected to figure out whether we can imagine collaborating with you and how such collaboration can be shaped. The provision of your data hence serves to pursue our sales interest as a legitimate interest as well as to implement pre-contractual measures. Without these data, we are unable to reliably assess whether collaborating with you makes sense from our point of view.
