ABETEC takes care of appropriate organisational and technical measures to secure personal data. We may not retain personal data longer than necessary to fulfill the purpose for which we collect them. The storage period may therefore vary for different purposes. Sometimes the period may be long, for example to comply with our legal obligations (to meet our accounting and tax obligations, for example, we are obliged to keep invoice data for a maximum of 10 years) or because of the legal need to keep certain data as evidence in the event of litigation, for a maximum of 10 years after termination of your contract, or for 10 years as part of our claims guarantee.

At the end of the applicable retention period(s), personal data will be rendered anonymous or deleted.
