We collect your personal data when you provide it to us via our contact forms or when you contact us directly. Then we process the information that you have provided to us in the course of establishing contact. This includes, in particular, names and contact data provided (address, telephone number or e-mail address), date and reason for contact. The personal data that you collect will only be used to answer and fulfil your specific enquiries. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. (f) GDPR, which permits the processing of personal data for the purpose of our legitimate interest in processing and answering your enquiry. Your personal data processed in this respect will be stored by us for as long as it is necessary to carry out our relationship (communication) with you and in accordance with the applicable legal storage regulations.

With regard to the processing of your personal data, the relevant legal basis is your consent in accordance with Article 6 para. 1 lit. (a) in connection with Article 7 GDPR.

2.1.3 Sales, Marketing and invitations: We may use your personal data (name, first name, address, company, telephone number, e-mail address) to send you information about our services, partners, promotions and events that we think may be of interest to you. We may contact you by e-mail based on our legitimate interests under Article 6 para. 1 lit. (f) of the GDPR if we have a direct business relationship with you or with the company for which you work, and if you have not objected. We may contact you by telephone if you have given your consent (Article 6 para. 1 lit. (a) GDPR) or on the basis of a presumed consent on the condition that you will welcome the call. We may contact you by post on the basis of our legitimate interests under Article 6 para. 1 lit. (f) GDPR as long as you do not object. In such cases, it is our legitimate interest to inform business partners or potential customers about such services and products that may be of interest to them and thus to maintain our existing or future business relationship.

2.1.4 Applications: Data protection information on the application process can be found directly in the privacy notice on our careers page.

2.1.5 Performance of contracts and services: If you or your company want to be authorized as a customer of one of our services, we collect your personal data (first name, last name, contact data, company address, payment details) to register you to our service and for the usage of our service. The purposes of personal data processing are determined by the specific service or product. This may include issuance, settlement, asset services, investment fund services, connectivity, market coverage and Legal Entity Identifier service. The legal basis for processing this personal data is Article 6 (1) lit. b GDPR, as processing is necessary to fulfil a contract or for pre-contractual measures between us and the customer. If the user is not the customer who concluded the contract with us, but an employee of the customer or otherwise authorized by the customer to use our services, the legal basis for processing is Article 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, as the processing is in the legitimate interest of the customer. The legitimate interest of the customer is to enable the user to use our services in accordance with the contract. Your personal data processed in this regard will be stored by Us as long as it is necessary to carry out Our relationship (registration and use of our service) with you and required by applicable statutory retention laws.

We may also collect device-specific information, such as your hardware model and operating system.

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data for these purposes is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. (c) GDPR in fulfilling our legal obligation to take technical and organisational measures to ensure secure data processing in accordance with Article 32 GDPR and Article 6 para. 1 lit. (f) GDPR in order to pursue our legitimate interests in data processing for network and information security. After the specified period of 30 days, the above data will be deleted.
