If you exercise such an objection, we ask you to explain why we should not process your personal data as we have done. In the event of your justified objection, we will examine the situation and either cease or adapt the data processing or inform you of our compelling legitimate grounds for continuing the processing.
(1) We only pass on your data to third parties if this is necessary for contractual purposes, e.g. on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR, or if it can be justified on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.
