3 General information about data processing
We only process personal data to the extent allowed by law. Personal data will only be disclosed in the situations described below (see section 4 below).
Personal data is deleted or protected by technical and organisational measures (e.g. pseudonymisation, encryption) as soon as the purpose of the processing lapses. This also takes place if a prescribed storage time expires, unless there is a requirement to continue to store the personal data for the purpose of entering into or fulfilling a contract.
To the extent that we are not obliged by law to store personal data for a longer period or to disclose personal data to third parties (in particular law enforcement authorities), the decision as to which personal data is collected by us, how long it is stored and the extent of any disclosure depends on which functions of the website you are using on a case-by-case basis.

Disclosure of data to third parties only takes place if you directly write to an employee of a subsidiary company (Lucas-Nuelle Inc., Lucas-Nülle FWOE and Lucas-Nülle Middle East FZE) or one of the listed trade partners.

Data is only disclosed to third parties to the extent necessary to carry out the seminar (e.g. to the cooperation partner providing the rooms if participant lists are maintained there / registration needs to take place).
