Legal basis (where applicable under GDPR): Art. 6 (1) lit. b (pre-contractual measures) and lit. f (legitimate interest in structured communication with potential business partners).

4. Do we share data with third parties?

We only share information that is necessary and relevant for the specific case and, where possible, after clarifying this with you.

Emails and related project documents are typically stored in our email system and, where necessary, in structured folders (for example in cloud storage or local devices).

We keep business-related communication for as long as it is necessary for:

Handling your enquiry or project
Documenting cooperation and follow-up
Fulfilling legal retention obligations (where applicable)

If you would like specific information or documents to be deleted earlier, please contact us by email.
