We will use your Personal Data for the purposes as described below or described when we are seeking your consent. We do not collect and process more or other types of Personal Data than necessary to fulfill the respective purposes. We will only use Personal Data as set forth in this Policy, unless you have specifically provided your consent to another use of your Personal Data. If we intend to use your Personal Data for purposes other than we originally collected them for, we will inform you in advance and, in cases where the processing is based on your consent, use your Personal Data for a different purpose only with your permission.
In case we rely on your consent to process your Personal Data, you will have the right to withdraw it at any time, unless there is a restriction on the withdrawal of consent by law or pursuant to a contract which gives benefits to you. The withdrawal of your consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before such withdrawal.

If any Personal Data is only useful for a short period (e.g. for a specific event or marketing campaign or in relation to recruitment or security purposes, etc.), we may delete it at the end of that period.
If you have opted out of receiving marketing communications from us, we will need to retain certain Personal Data on a suppression list indefinitely so that we know not to send you further marketing communications in the future.
