Data will not be transmitted for purposes other than those mentioned above, in particular, for example, your data shall not be disclosed in return for payment.

5.1. Use of data to establish and process contracts
5.1.1. Seibert Group only accepts orders when provided with the full name of the ordering company’s contact person, a valid email address to establish and maintain our contractual relationship, and the company’s data and /(invoice) address. We require personal data:
5.1.2. Personal data is stored by Seibert Group in particular for the purpose of establishing and processing contracts. For this purpose, it may be necessary to pass on your personal data to third parties, such as a partner licensor of Seibert Group, who acts on behalf of Seibert Group. These third parties are not authorized to use any data shared with them for purposes other than those as stated in this declaration. Data processing activities are especially necessary in order to grant you access to the Seibert Group „extranet“.
6.2.1. Seibert Group uses information provided by people and companies in accordance with data protection regulations for the maintenance of customer relationships, e.g. by providing information about our similar products (product recommendations) by email, regardless of whether you have subscribed to our newsletter. All legal requirements are strictly observed. You can object to the use of your data at any time without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the base rates.
6.2.2. The most effective way to prevent us from analyzing how you use our services is to use a cookie blocker. For example, the Ghostery browser extension provides a simple and effective way to deactivate cookies completely or selectively. If you send a request by email to gdpr@seibert.group, we will delete all information about you from our CRM system. If you are using multiple email addresses, please specify all email addresses to be deleted. You can also instruct us to delete all data except stored email addresses. In this way, we can delete all personal information, but store a note with your profile containing only your email address, indicating that no emails should be sent to these email addresses in the future.
6.2.3. Anonymous tracking can help to improve our own software as well. For draw.io for Atlassian Confluence and Jira, we have decided that we will not transmit any data from the draw.io apps to reach an incredibly high level of data security and privacy. Learn more about the no tracking stance of draw.io here. For Linchpin Intranet, however, we do use the power of anonymous tracking with an opt-out mechanism.

In this case, however, the data will be blocked for further use and deleted after the end of the statutory retention period.
