• Adherence to legal requirements (e.g. for obligations set by tax and commercial law).

Legal basis
The processing of the personal data is required for the achievement of the purposes stated above, including the implementation of the (contractual) business relationship with our business partner/applicant. Legal basis for the processing of data is – unless otherwise stated – the European Union Data Protection Directive or the explicitly stated consent of our business partner/applicant.

Disclosure and communication of personal data
As far as is required for the achievement of the purposes stated above, SysTec may disclose personal data to external processors. SysTec may also disclose personal data to courts, supervisory authorities or legal firms, insofar as this is legally permissible and required to comply with applicable law or to assert, exercise or defend legal rights.

SysTec works together with service providers (so called external processors), such as service providers for IT maintenance work. These service providers only become involved upon instructions by SysTec and are bound by contract to comply with the Data Protection Directive.

No personal data will be transferred to third countries.

Retention periods
Insofar as no time limit has been specified for the storage of data (e.g. as part of a declaration of consent), personal data of business partners are deleted when they are no longer required for the achievement of the purpose of the storage, unless legal storage obligations (e.g. obligations to retain commercial and tax records) do not permit the deletion.

In the course of the application processs your personal data will be deleted within six months after the completion of the application process. This does not apply when statutory provisions do not permit the deletion, or the further storage is required for the purpose of giving evidence or you have explicitly consented to a longer storage.

Revocability of granted declarations of consent
When our business partner/applicant has granted his consent for the storage of personal data, this consent may be revoked at any time with effect for the future, i.e. the revocation does not effect the lawfulness of data processing based on the consent prior to the revocation. Upon receipt of the revocation of consent, SysTec may only continue to process personal data when there is a different legal basis for such proceedings.

• Receive personal data provided by our business partner/applicant, or demand that the personal data be transferred to a third party;
• Object to the processing of personal data of our business partner/applicant by SysTec.
