In this case we will also inform you about the possible consequences if this information is not provided.

This includes that the party is obliged to ensure appropriate technical and organizational security measures, and that any transfer of personal data to countries outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) is adequately legitimized.
We could share your data on a need-to-know basis with the parties mentioned below. In this context, "need-to-know" means that a party only gets access to your data if and insofar as this is required for the professional services provided by this party.
