3. Our Uses for your Personal Data
We use your personal data for the fulfilment of pre-contractual, contractual, and/or post-contractual as well as for any legal obligations (article 6 paragraph 1 b, c GDPR).

-within the warranty services provided by us or a manufacturer
-to fulfil out statutory warranty obligations
However, we sometimes also need your personal data even before we enter into a contract together. For example: To send or receive samples or by inquiries.
We use your personal data for the fulfilment of any further legal obligations (ex. Tax obligations).
We use your personal data for the fulfilment of legitimate interests according to article 6 Abs. 1 f GDPR.

4. Your requirement to give your personal information
When we work with you (for example: under contract), we can only do so if you provide us with all data required for a lawful contract. In some cases, there is also a legal obligation to provide us with your personal information. We will inform you accordingly in such a case. In the case of pure business customers, without a contact person and without any personal data provided, the obligation to notify is waived.
5. The Sources in Which We obtain Personal Data
We only process the personal data that we receive from you by email, telephone calls and other letters. In addition, we use the personal information you publish openly.

If you would like to know which personal data we have stored about you, we will tell you, because you have a right to this information according to Art. 15 GDPR in connection with § 34 BDSG.
If you tell us that the personal information is incorrect, we must correct that personal information. You are entitled to a correction under Art. 16 GDPR.

In rare cases (ex. if it is not clear if personal data is right or wrong or if we would like to delete your personal data, but you do not want it deleted or if we comply with legal and statutory archiving deadlines but you want to have your personal data deleted) you may request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
