These are called persistent cookies, allowing us to retain information about recurring visitors.

Legal bases on which personal data is processed

Any operation that equates to processing (collection, storage, recording, structuring, adaptation or modification, extraction, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, destruction) of your personal data will be carried out based on one of the following legal bases:

  • The processing is necessary for the execution of a contract to which you or your organization are a party, or the respective processing is necessary for the conclusion of a contract with you or your organization;
  • The processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation;

  • The processing is necessary for our legitimate interests or those of a third party, except where your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms override these interests.

In cases where applicable legal provisions require your prior and explicit consent for the processing of special categories of data, we will process such data only on the basis of your prior and explicit consent. At the same time, we will take additional guarantees that any natural or legal person who communicates to us your special personal data has previously obtained your consent.

You can choose to withdraw your consent for marketing materials at any time by simply accessing the ‘unsubscribe’ link at the bottom of each newsletter or event invitation.
